Importing iMovie HD projects into iMovie 11

Are projects made with iMovie HD compatible when imported into iMovie 11?
I have imported projects made with iMovie HD into the latest iMovie 11 and noticed soundtrack and transitions were missing. Is there anything I can do to import iMovie HD projects without missing anything (music, effects, etc) in iMovie 11? thanks

Hi
iMovie 1 to HD6 - is one Application evolving
iMovie'08 to 11 - Is a wrongly named new Application.
That's why one can't migrate projects over with full compatibility - same as to FinalCut - will not work 100% either.
And If You aim to make a DVD as result - then stay in iM HD6 as this will give absolutly best quality when exported to iDVD.
iMovie'08 - 11 discard every second line resulting in 50% of the sharpness.
Yours Bengt W

  • Error while importing an existing project into workspace

    hi,
    I am trying to import an existing project into workspace but getting an error 'vfamilychange' doest not have a .project file .But while checking into the folder structure of project vfamilychange' shows the .project file is already there.
    Please do suggest.

    Hi,
    To correctly use the project in a new NWDS. Please use the following method (for Windows XP only):
    1.) Navigate to the projects folder. This will be in the "DC" or "Local Development" folders in your "Documents and Settings" folder.
    2.) Inside the project folder you will find an "_comp" folder.
    3.) Zip this entire folder with WinZIP or WinRAR.
    4.) Finally goto the new PC / Location of export. Unzip this archive into a new Folder.
    5.) Open NWDS. Goto File->Import->Existing Project into Workspace.
    6.) Select your folder (where you extracted the archive).
    Hope that helps.
    Thanks.

  • Problems Importing Premiere Pro Project into After Effects

    I've got my first Pemiere Pro CS6 project completed. Now i want to import it into After Effects CS6 to add titles.
    The PR file includes two segments, two still photos and two AE compositions. I am trying to import the PR project into AE two different ways: 
    1. File>Import> Adobe Dynamic Link>Adobe Premier Project. When I do this, the project looks great in the Footage tab of the RAM preview window on the right. But when I make a new sequence to get it on the Timeline so that I can begin to add titles, I get only  blackness in the Comp tab of the ram preview window whether I am playing a RAM preview or a spacebar preview.
    2. File>Import> Adobe Premier Project. When I do this, the two AE segments are missing.
    I am on an iMac with OSX.7.4.
    Can anyone give me some advice on the best way to do this?
    Thanks!

    You will need to render out those two AE compositions to video before you can bring them back into AE through dynamic link.  If you are concerned with making changes, you can always replace footage in Premiere with a new render.
    Dynamic Link is just not designed with your workflow -- AE doesn't open multiple projects at one time, and your workflow ends up with AE trying to open 3.
    You can bring those two compositions into AE as imports.  They won't be linked together (so any changes in original project will not reflect in imported version) but you would have all 4 elements in one AE project.

  • How to import an j2ee project into j2ee perspective of  NWDS

    while trying to import an j2ee project into NWDS .....it is giving an error """unbounnd classpath container:org.eclipse.jst.j2ee.internal.web.container".
    So where must be the problem.Should i have to install some eclipse plugins in the NWDS ????

    Hello again
    Sure, you can import the topics as a "batch" by selecting many topics at once.
    As for the links, I'm thinking that as long as you maintain the relative locations between the linked topics, that all should be fine.
    What I mean by the relative locations is to say that if you have a folder structure in the source project, you will need to ensure you have the identical folder structure in the destination. Then ensure the topics are copied to the exact folders.

  • How to import existing jsp project into jdeveloper

    can someone help me how to import existing jsp project into jdeveloper?
    can give me step by step to import..cause i am new for jdeveloper..
    thank you very much

    Well there are two options - if you have a WAR file with the code in it, then you can use the file->import WAR.
    Or you can use the new->Project from source code.
    Note that you'll probably need to do some library settings and some directory setting after that.
    Have a look at this demo for basic steps:

  • Having an issue importing a 10 project into 9...please help

    Hi,
    My company downloaded a trial version of RH 10.  We built a lot in 10, but then, we decided to purchase a copy of RH 9.
    We were told we could import a 10 project into 9, but when I try to do that, I get the following error message saying it's not possible.
    Can we, or can we not, import a 10 project into 9?
    Thanks,

  • Import a fb3 project into fb4

    I'm ready to import a fb3 project into fb4. What changes does this actually do to the fb3 one such that i cannot be used by fb3 again?
    Should I do this with my production projects yet? I think the benefits would outweigh any risks.

    I imported a flex 3 project into flash builder but in the design view I'm getting
    model edit failed, the same property cannot appear twice
    I'm not sure how to correct this.
    I'm using fb4 beta 2

  • Import whole completed projects into another project-make it 1

    Hi,
    I have a problem. I finished my I movie project recently, but because I worked on it as several ones, which I wanted to put together in the end, I don't know now, how to make them one! So it's not just single clips I want to import, but whole projects. I'm using iMovie 4 on a iBook G4 with Panther (10.3.9.).
    So if anyone knows how to sort that out, I'm happy about any good advide!
    Cheers.
    Nelson

    At first it was a larger project with about 30 Clips in .mov and .avi, a few JPG'and one audio Track. But then I created a simple project with only two .mov clips and nothing else for testing and the problem remained the same.

  • Error Importing Premiere Elements project into Premiere Pro CS5

    Hi,
    I am working on a multi-part video project that I started in Premiere Elements 8.  I put in hours upon hours of editing on the first part and I found that the more I edited, the more often the program would crash (infuriating!).  So I started using Premiere Pro CS5 to produce the second part, resolving to come back to the first part later.  Well, I've come back around to needing this first part done, and it is just undoable in Elements (crashes every 20 seconds!).  I'd like to import that project into CS5 if possible.  The help documentation says this should be perfectly possible... but I'm having no luck.
    When I attempt to open my Premiere Elements project in Premiere Pro, it tells me the project must be converted from Elements .prel to Pro .prproj, and I click through the prompts as normal.  But then as soon as it starts trying to open the project, I get this:
    "The Project could not be loaded. It may be damaged or contain outdated elements."
    I downloaded the Premiere Elements 9 trial to see if it would be less crashy (and it is), but I'd really prefer to have all my video in one program, and CS5 does the best job (and has most of my hours invested).  Elements 9 opens the "damaged" project just fine and I can edit and export normally, so why can't CS5?
    Am I stuck recreating the project from the ground up in CS5?

    In very general terms, a contemporary PrE Project (PREL), will Open in PrPro, with the steps that you outlined.
    Now, there are all sorts of considerations, for aspects that will not likely work:
    Instant Movie/Themes, as PrPro cannot read those
    Some Effects that PrPro does not have, like the NewBlue FX
    Some Transitions that PrPro does not have
    Some Title animation Presets, that PrPro does not have
    Do you have any of the above in your PrE Project? There are probably other circumstances, but those are all that come immediately to my mind.
    The simpler the PrE Project, the greater the likelyhood that it will Convert to a PrPro PRPROJ file.
    PrE 8 and PrPro CS5 should be close enough to work, again in those general terms. I can Open simple PrE 4.0 Projects in PrPro 2.0, but cannot Open PrE 7, 8 or 9 Projects in PrPro 2.0.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Problem with importing a Motion project into FCP if it uses a Boris filter

    Had an odd and highly frustrating experience. Was using a Boris Continuum filter (the posterizing one) on the background of a Motion project (was using it to age a background of a brick wall to age it and give it a more 'nighttime' look).
    When I imported the file into FCP to use as an intro there, the background disappeared entirely. After an hour of troubleshooting, finally figured out that it was the Boris filter that was causing the problem (it also was probably responsible for the random crashing of FCP I was experiencing), as when I disabled the filter and re-saved the project, it worked beautifully.
    Is this a 'normal' problem when using Boris filters? Do I have to export every Motion project into a Quicktime file before importing it to FCP (and possibly DVDSP) if it uses a Boris filter?

    Thanks! Now the frustrating thing is that the client doesn't want to use what I created after all...bah humbug
    It's not the RAM (which is either 8GB or 16....not sure on that computer). Got an e-mail from Boris Support that implied that this will happen all the time...that you have to export all projects before you use them in FCP or DVDSP or the Continuum filters won't work (loved how the support person suggested that I just use the filter in FCP...which defeats the purpose of creating something in Motion! But I digress...) Told me I had to buy a $500 program called Automatic Duck to get things to import properly...and that Boris filters won't work with the latest upgrade of FCP, btw.

  • Importing a WinHelp project into RH 8 HTML changes the fonts in all my styles

    I am trying to import a WinHelp project created with RH 8 for Word into RH 8 HTML. I have noticed two major things:
    1. The first topic is preceded by the names of many fonts. At the end of these set of fonts, my topic appears. I am attaching a partial view of these fonts below:

    2. All Topics are imported as far as I could tell at a glance, but all the fonts have changed. I used styles based on the Normal_RWH.dot template that has been modified.
    Anyone can tell me how to recover my fonts besides doing so manually?
    Thanks,
    Esperanza

    It sounds like the first problem is related to Snippet 56.
    http://www.grainge.org/pages/snippets/snippets.htm
    My guess is you just delete the unwanted text.
    To correct the styles you may be lucky and just have to go into the Style Editor and change the font for each style. If not you will need to look at the HTML and you will likely find an inline style sheet in the topics and maybe even inline styling. Sorting that out will depend on your knowledge of HTML.
    Snippet 104 may also help you.
    Post back if more help needed when you have worked through that.

  • Importing Premiere Pro project into After Effects ???

    When I import a Premiere Pro project into After Effects, it splits every shot onto a new track, ending up with a couple of hundred tracks at the end.
    Is there a way to avoid this ?
    Particularly, since I'd want to keep the option of bringing the project file back in Premiere for further editing.
    My colorist suggested that I nest reels of my timeline and split it that way so that when he imports it he has nests on one timeline and the multiple tracks in each of those nests. Still, this feel very clunky.

    An editor at work was using our Avid to do a grade on a short promo and I
    wanted to see what I could do in After Effects. So when he was out of the
    office I exported the timeline as an AAF and copied the OMFI media. When I
    brought the project into After Effects I ended up with a massive number of
    layers and freaked at first at the idea of doing anything with it.
    However I thought about it again and decided to precompose all the layers,
    as this gave me just one layer to work with. I then added a couple of
    Adjustment Layers above it; one with a Levels effect added and the other
    with HSL. I also added Masks to the Adjustment Layers so I could vignette
    any effect.
    The key to working like this was to use Hold Keyframes at the beginning of
    each new shot for each effect, Mask Shape and Feather. I could then adjust
    that shot, scrub to the next shot add new Hold Keyframes adjust that shot
    and so on. When I wanted to repeat any effect settings on a shot, I just cut
    and pasted the relevant keyframes. Mixes across shots can be tricky but you
    can always go back to work with the original shots on their separate layers
    if you need to.
    I ended up with a quick grade that stood up nicely against the one done on
    the Avid and I only had work with 3 layers on my timeline!

  • Problem importing adobe premiere project into After effects CS6

    I've been working in Adobe's premiere and after effects for quite a few years now and this problem is new to me.
    I'm working on a project in After Effects CS6 and want to import a premiere pro project into After Effects. I go -> File -> import -> adobe premiere project
    Select project
    Select sequence
    Now After Effects CS6 imports all files from the premiere pro project like before in CS5, but now also imports the videofiles as sequences at the root in my project panel and messes everything up. Before it usually imported nice and tidy with the same folder structure as the premiere pro project would have.
    But that isn't the main problem. When i open the sequence i wanted to import and work on, some clips have been shortened down to 1 FRAME LONG  at the end. These clips have a 500% speed  in premiere pro, but this has never been a problem before, after effects has always before been able to translate the speed variations in clips from premiere -> after effects.
    The adobe premiere project that was imported is a 60 sec promo with various clips in various formats (Gopro h264, dv pal quicktime etc). Footage not exceeding the fair amount that after effects should handle. 15-20 videfiles at 30 sec each.
    I've never had this problem before with premiere <-> after effects.
    Anyone?

    I just found the solution!
    In my adobe premiere project that i was trying to import, some of the clips were "right clicked" and applied "Scale to frame size"
    Every videoclip that had "scale to frame size" in my adobe premiere pro sequence would import as its own composition in After Effects rather than just a videofile, and some of the clips would be trimmed down to be invisible.
    So if you have any problem with a clip not importing correctly into a sequence in after effects, check to make sure "scale to frame size" is not applied to the clip in premiere pro.
    I removed the scale to frame size in the premiere project and now everything imports fine into after effects.
    Sorry for the post.

  • Trying to import PP1.5 project into CS6 on Mac

    Working on some 2 minute product videos in PP1.5 because I had it on our PC at work.  The project crashes at random points on export and always during editing if I scrub the video too often.  I am trying to export with huffuv or lagarith and then ffmpeg convert to suitable size/formats for the web. 
    I have tried a number of things to help it export.  Sometimes it works but not always.  Anyway,  it is difficult to finish the edits because I can't view it in Premiere (long enough to finish) and can't export it conveniently (It does export using Cinepak codec but the quality is not good enough and it takes about an 1 hour/2min of video). 
    I have installed CS6 on my Mac, thinking the project files "are just XML or whatever" and should be compatible.  But no.  No project import and no sequence import.
    Is there anything I can do to get the project into CS6??  I am even willing to edit the project file.
    Thanks

    I doubt that you will have any luck. Premiere 6.5 was ported for both Mac and PC. When it became Premiere Pro (several different names at that point), it was PC ONLY>
    PrPro CS 3 was the first version to be X-platform.
    You might need to befriend a PC user, with say PrPro CS 3, to Open that Pr 1.5 Project into their program, then Save_As, and use that on the Mac.
    Good luck, and sorry for the bad news,
