In iMovie 10.0.2 Why can't I find iMovie projects or events to transfer to external harddrive?

I am trying to backup my iMovie Projects and all of the media for a number of events. I have been having trouble with iMovie 10.0.2, but it could also be my computer. I am running a Mid 2010 MacBook Pro with Maverick. I have a MacMini that I would like to transfer things over to. aybe I just can't process and that is why I am having so many issues with iMovie. Regardless, I cannot find my iMovie Projects or Events in the finder and cannot seem to figure out a way to find transfer them. They seem to have been lumped into a new library (similar to iPhoto) and I cannot for the life of me figure it out. Any ideas?

Yeah, since they switched to using the iLibrary format I didn't recognize things. I figured it out and was able to transfer things. Funny enough, I was trying to solve for the problem described in the other thread.
Sadly, trying a different comp (my MacMini) I was not able to make those darned clips work. They just seem doomed. Thanks for all the help though! I shall now give you more points!

  • How to find my iMovie projects and events since updating??????

    i updated my macbook pro retina to osx mavericks then my iMovie to the newer version. I now can't find or use my pervious projects or events and I've spent days hrs on some of them. I stored and use most of my projects/events on my external hd. its hooked up. can someone who knows how this works walk me through how to get my imovie projects and events linked from my external hd to this new imovie version that for some reason cant link them like the pervious.
    I hate when something work and then it gets updated and it doesnt work the same... frustrating.

    okay, do a search for iMovie cache or iMovie thumbnails, and you'll probably find them. Unless you choose reject clips and then move rejected clips to the trash, then check the cache or thumbnails, your clips won't be truly gone.  Just deleting them from the windows doesn't quite work.  Sorry I can't remember the technical name for 'em, just going by my experience.  Also, try deleting your project, and throwing that rascal in the trash, then start again. Usually it's becuz you chose copy the original rather than move it (to be on the safe side), like I did......
    anyways, thanks for writin'

  • Why can't i edit my project in imovie anymore??  (over 1 hr long) - is this a bug ?

    why can't i edit my project in imovie anymore??  (over 1 hr long) - is this a bug ?

    Hi
    There is a limiting factor that's easy to miss.
    • FREE SPACE on Start-Up (Mac OS) Hard Disk
    When this goes low then iMovie, Mac OS and all applications runs into problems. So to get a safe way to work (for me) I set a minimum that I try to never go lower than. (Sorry for strange sentence)
    I never let my Mac (Macintosh HD) go lower than 25GB free space. If it does - then I move away things to an external hard disk (always Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted - as nothing else will do for VIDEO)
    Else - in iDVD Time is the limiting factor. (iMovie - I never run into any - my monster Vacation epos is >>6 hours)
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.

  • Why can't I share my project? None of the options in the share dropdown menu is available.

    why can't I share my project? None of the options in the share dropdown menu is available.

    Your project is already saved in an iMovie Library on your hard drive. Re-installing iMovie will not affect your project or event files.
    To reinstall iMovie, just drag the iMovie application from the Applications folder to the trash.
    Reboot your Mac.
    Go to the Mac App Store and look under Purchases for iMovie and click Install.
    You cannot edit your iMovie 10 project in iMovie 9.
    iMovie 10 is so stripped down that one really needs to either go back to 9 or, if they can afford it, move up to Final Cut Pro X. If you're strapped for cash at the moment, you can download a trial version of the new Final Cut Pro X 10.1 and get 30 days of free usage out of it, even if you've already been using a free trial of 10.0.9.

    I have upgrade ios 6 to ios7 on my iphone 5.  I do NOT like it at all.   I want to come back to the previous version.  why is it so complicated? Why can I not find the instruction strait from apple? This is the worst possible upgrade ever.  It make me think of when ericsson got sold to Sony....drastic PC change.
    I would like to have simple instruction on how to downgrade.
    It feel like a change that I did not ask for , ok I push the upgrade buttom, but really this is the worst update aver!

  • Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events from my iPhone in my mac pro if I already registered it in the cloud?

    Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events already registered in my iPhone, in my Mac Pro ?  I already actualize LION OSX   and selected these items in the adjustments menu of the icloud. I could do it just once, after I installed Lion OSX, but up to the moment it does not updates.

    Assuming you activated iCloud, try going to Settings>iCloud and make sure Calendars and Contacts are set to ON.

  • Why can't I find certain Pantone plus colors in Illustrator CS6 color books?

    Why can't I find certain Pantone plus colors in Illustrator CS6 color books? For example I want to use PMS 2296C, but it is not coming up in the color swatch book in Illustrator.

    Thanks!
    I actually just came across the same thing in the meantime.
    And it worked!
    If you bought the physical Pantone books, there is a registration/serial number on the back. You can go to Pantone and register it (https://www.pantone.com/pages/MYP_myPantone/mypProductRegistration.aspx)
    Then you're able to download the Pantone manager.
    There are infact 336 new colors added to the Pantone Plus series. And this is where you need to get them. Once you have them, in Pantone color manager, you go to: File/Export/Adobe Illustrator/sRB. Then restart Illustrator.
    Once you go back in, the new 336 colors are available!

  • Why can't I open my project in Prem. Elements 10?

    Why can't I open any project in Prem. Elements 10? Message says Windows must close the program because of "a problem," and will notify if a solution can be identified.  I reinstalled the Premiere Elements 10 portion of the (bundled) program but never installed Photoshop Elements 10, and am currently continuing to run PS Elements 8. This has worked in the past, so I don't understand what the problem is. I am running Windows 7, 64-bit. Thanks!

    loloboz
    Am I correct in reading that you have never been able to open your Premiere Elements 10 running on Windows 7 64 bit? If so, we can rule out problems with the source media and damaged projects and concentrate on the installation and system requirements.
    You write that you have attempted uninstall reinstall of Premiere Elements 10. Is that correct?.
    Adobe also has a Tech Note  directed at troubleshooting Premiere Elements installation issues, including how to install if your installation disc might be damaged.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/troubleshoot-installation-problems-pepe-winxp .html
    It would be interesting to see how Photoshop Elements 10 installs from this same installation disc on this same Windows 7 64 bit.
    We will be watching for your progress.
    Thanks.

  • Why can't EXS find my instruments and samples?

    Why can't EXS find my Instruments and Samples?
    LPX 10.0.7
    I have had issues with this problem before, and have spent a few hours looking throughout the many related threads on this forum and on Logic Pro Help without finding a workable solution.  So I will jump in again and hope for someone to shed some light on this.
    Here is the scenario- I have two rigs, one in my studio and another on my laptop (2.5 gh Intel core 2 Duo with 4GB RAM). I have a duplicate of my sample library on a portable drive, which I take with me when I'm using my laptop. I recently copied a Project I'm working on from the portable drive to my main system. When I open the project, I get a message telling me that certain (not all) EXS files are not found.
    Some further pertinent info:
    I have not saved the EXS files with the project- the project uses a sizable template and that would be cumbersome.
    All of the EXS instruments/samples in the Project are there on both my internal sample drive and the portable drive.
    The aliases linking my Application support Logic folder and the sample drive are correct and in place.
    This happens whether I have the portable drive mounted on my main rig or not. And whether I open the Project from the portable drive or from the copy on the internal drive.
    I have reindexed the internal sample drive with Spotlight. Didn't help.
    I have refreshed the Instrument menu from within EXS. Didn't seem to do anything.
    Anyone?

    Hi Sig! Thank you very much for your reply. But my version is iLife 11, and it should have an iWeb and iDVD

  • Why can´t  I find my 5d Mark ii in the finder when I connect it with my mac?

    Why can´t  I find my 5d Mark ii in the finder when I connect it with my mac?

    Because it is not a mass storage device that would appear in the Finder. It uses the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) to interface with a computer. It can be accessed using an application that uses PTP, such as Image Capture, iPhoto, Aperture, or Canon's software. These applications also support more camera-specific features than the Finder would, such as tethered shooting and possibly camera clock synchronization.

  • Why can't the finder in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 find files that have successfully downloaded, or that other programs can find?

    Why can't the finder in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 find files that have successfully downloaded, or that other programs can find?
    This happens with maybe 1 out of 5 files. These are files that have either an ."aa" extention, or or are libraries that icloud can see, but finder can't.

    Files beginning with a period are invisible and library files are system files. Spotlight cannot find either unless configured to do so (btw, this is not a Finder issue but a Spotlight issue.)
    Get Spotlight to search system files (and more)
    Enter the search term in the Finder window's search field.
    Click the [+] button in the search bar to add a search option.
    In the first drop down menu choose Other.
    Choose “System Files” from the list that pops up (and check the box to place in drop down menu to avoid this step later,) click on the OK button.
    Now back in the Finder choose Include from the second drop down menu.
