Importing problems: clips skip and then stop importing

If you go into iMovie Help section, there is a troubleshooting section where this exact question is asked and "answered." However, the answer that they gave was not adequate and did not solve my problem.
This is what happened-I was importing and all of a sudden i got to a part where it just starts to skip. It keeps skipping for a few seconds and then just stops importing. My camera is a MiniDV and the tape i used to record things is brand new. I also put in another tape that i had successfully imported in the past in my camera to see if the brand new tape was somehow defective, but the same thing happened with the old tape that i put in to import. Could it be the connecter? But if something was wrong with that wouldn't my computer not recognize my camera at all?
Help me please! I want to finish the movie I'm making

Hi
Two most common origins to this:
• You have stopped recording - rewind view and may be even took out the tape.
= TimeCode on tape is boroken and needs to be mended
• You have used LP-mode while recording. Don't and even more so if the recording
was done on another Camera. Then LP-mode most often doesn't work. To sencitive.
First situation:
• Try to turn off in iMovie preferences menu: Import as individual clips.
You might get the material in even if it is as a full block that needs to be cut up
• Alt. If You got two Cameras + one FireWire 4-pin to 4-pin Cable
Firts record one tape with just anything eg a wall (This will not be kept)
Copy the problem tape onto the prerecorded one (with a complete TimeCode)
Second sit:
• Get the Original Camera and then
• Try to turn off in iMovie preferences menu: Import as individual clips.
You might get the material in even if it is as a full block that needs to be cut up
• If in LP-mode (90min on a 60min tape) You also get sync problems so start with
Clip on Timeline then Advance mebu and down to Exract Audio.
Might help.

Importing photos from Iphone to computer and there is a message it is having trouble with this part way through on a phot and then stops

I am having trouble importing photos onto my Mac book Pro from my Iphone...in the middle of the import I get a message stating that they are having trouble with one of my photos and then stops importing...want to save photos and clear the phone storage

Hello cindysc
Try importing the photos using Image Capture and see if that changes things. If it still gets stuck, try and email the photo to your self and download it that way.

Begins capture and then stops (says problem with tape)

When I try to capture (whether it is with Clip or Now) the capture begins for three seconds and then stops citing a problem with the data. The menu suggests that there may be a problem with the DV tape. (I can preview with no problem). I've tried many tapes and all have the same result leading me to think there's something up with the program.
I haven't specified any system preferences other than what is suggested for default. The program recognizes and controls my device with no problem. I just can't capture. What should I do?
I'm using a Panasonic DV NV-MX8EN (Asia model).

If you have an anti-virus app running, disable it.
Also try switching off File Vault if it's on.

When playing my i-tunes library through my hi-fi via Airport Express, how can I get i-tunes to play a single album and then stop, without continuing on through my entire library. It's a problem that doesn't occur when I'm listening through my i-pod.

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

trying to launch photoshop cs3 on a mac running OS10.6.8 i keep getting the error message: Licensing for this product has stopped working you cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT adminstrator or Adobe customer support for help
I already Uninstalled and reinstalled the product and it still does not work.

Hi,
Try to uninstall the software again and you have to manually
Delete the following folders:
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/caps
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/backup
[Startup Disk]/Library/Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/
[Startup Disk]/Library/Application Support/FLEXnet Publisher/
Go to Applications-->Utilities-->Disk Utility, Open it and Select the MAC HD and then click on Repair permissions.
After that try to run the cleaner tool as mentioned by kglad.
Restart machine and then try to install again.
*** Make sure , you only delete these folders if there is no other adobe applications installed on the machine. As if you have any other Adobe application of the suite ( not free applications ) then it will be a problem.

HT1476 My phone will charge to 5% and then stops, does anybody else have this problem?

I noticed this problem when I plugged my phone in to top it's charge. It wouldnt charge and after the battery went flat it started to charge, turned on at 5% and then stopped and started to loose battery life and turned off and the cycle just carries on. Help?!

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

Ring duration & voicemail are all controlled by your carrier. Your issue seems to be voicemail...doesn't appear to be setup on your phone. I'm not aware of any carrier that permits a cell phone to ring longer than 30 ~ 40 seconds, so that appears to be normal. Contact your carrier as it looks like your issue is voicemail.

How to have slide show play automatic and then stop?

How do I get my iMovie to burn to iDVD without a theme and play when inserted into a DVD player automatically once and then stop?

(From fellow poster Mishmumken: )
How to create a DVD in iDVD without menu (there are several options):
1. Easy: Drop your iMovie in the autoplay box in iDVD's Map View, then set your autoplay item (your movie) to loop continously. Disadvantage: The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
2. Still easy: If you don't want your (autoplay) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the dropzone (text needs to be black as well). Disadvantage: The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
3. Still quite easy but takes more time: Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
Disadvantage: One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
4. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software: Roxio Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn. Disadvantage: you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
5. The "hard way": Postproduction with myDVDedit (freeware)
Tools necessary: myDVDedit ( http://www.mydvdedit.com )
• create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
• Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
• Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
• Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
• Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
• Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned.If it works save and close myDVDedit.
• Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager:
http://lonestar.utsa.edu/llee/applescript/dvdimager.html
Our resident expert, Old Toad, also recommends this: there is a 3rd export/share option that give better results. That's to use the Share ➙ Media Browser menu option. Then in iDVD go to the Media Browser and drag the movie into iDVD where you want it.
Hope this helps!

At night, as soon as I plug my iphone to be recharged, my iphone starts behaving abnormaly. It is like somebody has taken control of it. I see the screens moving, music starts playing and then stopping, etc.

At night, as soon as I plug my iphone to be recharged, my iphone starts behaving anomaly. It is like somebody has taken control of it. I see the screens moving, music starts playing and then stopping, etc. I have noticed that several nights. What I do is in Settings is to change into Plane Mode, thinking that, may be if I do that, somebody that has taking control of it will not be able to download data. Yesterday night, I was awakened by an alarm, whose setting I did not changed. When I looked over, the alarm screen changed to Settings and the Plane Mode changed alone in front of my eyes, from on to off.
I have not observed such a situation during the day. Only when I plug the cable.
I suspected that may be there is no Trojan installed. May be the cable, which is a spare cable, has been modified by a hacker, and it has electronics installed in the connector. But tested with the original cable, and the behavior was the same, as described above.

Thanks Meg for your reply.
It could be that both cable are bad. But, anyway, you would not expect any of these manifestations, even with a bad cable. I had bad cable for my 4s, and never saw such a thing!
I contacted by chat the support of Apple. They told me that this behavior could be a software problem and recommended me to do a full recover of my iphone. That meant, putting in at the factory conditions and recup all the data from the backup. I did that, and the behavior did not change. The backup was made with the data of my PC, not icloud. Tomorrow will try with icloud and check if that will work.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Multicast works for a day and then stops

I'm running multicast in unicast mode on our WLC because I can't enable PIM on wired side yet for a couple reasons. It works consistently on 3 out of 6 WLAN's. And the weird thing is the other 3 WLAN's will work for a day, and when I come in the next day, multicast traffic has stopped flowing. I have verified this through IGMP snooping, using a bonjour browser, testing airplay, and using packet capture on a wireless NIC. 2 of the WLAN's are configured almost identically, but one works consistently day after day, and the other only works for a day after resetting the wlan. I have been coming in the morning and changing a single setting back and forth just to reset the WLAN so it will work for the rest of the day. I'm just writing this to see if someone can think of why it would work fine for the shole day and then stop working by the next morning. It's not an IGMP timeout setting, because it works for much longer than the timeout and behaves the same way even without IGMP snooping on. It started doing this after upgrading to 7.0.240.0. We have very little amount of multicast traffic on wireless, and low channel utilization. It does the same exact thing whether 802.11a or 802.11g so I don't think it has to do with data rates. When I have IGMP snooping on, and on the WLAN's where it's not working, the controller will see the multicast group join message from the client, but the client doesn't see the IGMP query from the controller. It shouldn't be wired config related since it's unicast mode. I've tried with and without broadcasting enabled. Any ideas?

Okay, so I discovered two things, but I still don't know what caused this problem. When I was running 7.0.230.0 I had increased my EAP-Broadcast key interval to 86400 due to a bug. This seems to be related to the fact that on the wlan's where multicast was not working, it stopped by the next day. When I backed this interval down to 3600 the multicast stopped working after an hour instead of a day. So that's why I believe it was somewhat related to the broadcast key, since that key is used for multicast.
What I realized is that multicast was working on all the wlan's on all AP's that had been rebooted since the controller upgrade (They had been rebooted due to a switch losing power). This is weird because all the AP's were rebooted when they received their own 7.0.240.0 software upgrade, so I don't know why they would have needed to be rebooted again. Anyway, I rebooted a few more AP's and multicast works properly on all wlan's on those. I'm just replying to my own thread here in case someone has a similar problem after upgrading your controller - try rebooting all your access points again. Or maybe reboot after changing EAP-Broadcast Key interval.

In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play start to finish.

In Itunes store, song preview plays for only 5-10 seconds and then stops. Songs in my Itunes library play entirely from start to finish.

My Itunes previews have been playing fully now for the past few days. After trying every suggestion possible to fix the problem of 5-10 second previews, I took the advice on one feed to use OpenDNS for your network internet connection. There are internet sites that will instruct you how to do it. Just Google "opendns for (your operating system)". I have Windows XP and followed a video instruction at www.top-windows-tutorals.com/using-opendns.html. Afterward, close your browser and then flush the DNS Resolver cache; Start/Run, type CMD in the open field, click OK, in resulting window type ipconfig/flushdns, press return on keyboard. No guarantees, but my browser is faster and my Itunes previews are playing fully so far. But I still shudder every time I hit the preview button.

Itunes store won't open. It tries and then stops. no error messages. I've reinstalled and same thing happens. any ideas?

Hi Guys:-
If this SAME problems is effecting us all then suspect its not IPS problem as we all get problem at 995.6MB.

Not possible for me to visit store now but will monitor your responce's.
Good luck guys, lets make um give us a fix:- I will call them tomorrow and see what they say:- should point support to this Discussion page and they can answer us !
Cheers and good luck also

My PowerBook G4 says that it's connected to wifi, but it still no internet connection. The connection will work for a while, and then I'll have to run diagnostics and it will work again for a few minutes and then stop working again. What's going on??

Thanks in Advance...

Hi Divakar,
What’s the version of your TFS?
How do you configure the test control?
Please make sure you are specify the team collection instead of team project.
On the other hand, you may enable test controller logs. (You could share the log file on the OneDrive)
