How to insert photos over clips

Friends,
In iMovie 08 I could insert photos over clips.
I can´t see how to do this in iMovie 09.
If it is possible, could someone please tell me how to do it?
In mid-stream of an edit and would be very much assisted if I could be advised asap.
Thanks in anticipation.
Spiral on!
John

Hi -
In Preferences, select Show Advanced Tools.
Close Preferences
Drag the photo you want to the place you want it to inserted, and drop
A menu will open that will allow you the choice of inserting or using the photo as a cutaway (among other things).
Hope this helps.

Adding photos over video? Audio sync issues. :o(

I just started using iMovie HD today. So far so good- but I have run into an issue where I want to add photos over my interview subject (video and audio). I have separated the audio from the video so I can split the movie clip and add the photo... but iMovie isn't removing the extra movie footage so when the photo fades the movie audio doesn't sync with the persons lips. This must be a common issue. How do I fix this so when the photo fades the video underneath is synced with the audio (spoken word). Thanks for any help!!!

Hi mistahtea - it sounds as though you are going about it in the wrong way.
Firstly make sure that in iMovie Preferences you have ticked 'Extract Audio when Pasting Over at Playhead'.
Then:
1. Copy the pic you want to superimpose.
2. Position the Playhead where you want the pic to insert.
3. Go Advanced>Paste Over at Playhead.
That should do the trick!

CAN´T INSERT PHOTOS TO POWER POINT & WORD

I have photos now installed in my Mac, but can´t see the photos archive in power point . If I use keynotes it´s okay but the problem is power point, word....
Can anyone please help me!
Thank you.

Thanks Matt, that worked. It's kind of annoying, however, because that's not the way Help explains it...
"You can paste a new video clip or photo over an existing clip while retaining the audio from the original clip. The video cuts away to a new picture, but you continue to hear the sound from the original clip.
To replace images in a clip while maintaining running audio:
Choose iMovie HD > Preferences, and then click General.
Select the "Extract audio when using Paste Over at Playhead" checkbox.
Select the video or photo that you want to insert.
Choose Edit > Cut or Copy.
Do one of the following:
To paste the entire video you selected in step 3, position the playhead at the first frame to be replaced. When you paste the clip, it will replace a portion of video equal to its length.
To paste over a specific segment of your movie, select the part of the video clip you want to paste over. (To learn more about selecting part of a video clip, see Related Topics below.)
If the video you're pasting is longer than the selected frame range, the excess video will not be pasted. If the video you're pasting is shorter than the selected frame range, the extra space will be filled with a color clip (or the still image, if you paste a still image).
Choose Advanced > "Paste Over at Playhead."
The audio track of the original video is retained and appears in audio track 1 of the timeline viewer."
Anyway, thanks again. I'm going to feedback Apple about this.

My hard drive died last week, and I needed to install a new one. Previously, I was able to save a .doc with text and inserted photo to .pdf and then to .jpg. Now I can get the .pdf but can't determine what to do to convert to .jpg. Does anyone know ?

Rather than do that, which means starting over from scratch, losing all your edits, organisation and so on, why not simply use iPhoto Library Manager to revert the Library to the older version? Easier, less destructive.
The instructions on that are here
If you really want to start over: you can access the Originals folder simply by going to your Pictures Folder and finding the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.

How to disable the FULL SCREEN option in the 'Insert Video and Audio' option

Hi,
I've been inserting some MP3's and using an image for pupils to click on to play the sound, the images are 100 pixels by 100 pixels.
The only issue is that I have the grey rectangle 'Full Screen' box over the picture. This is ideal when I put videos on but not necessary when you have just an MP3. Also I've noticed that the 'Styles' option is greyed out and due to that I can't change the
colour of the play button.
I've been inserting MP3's direct from my PC hard drive to the webpage.
Any help'd be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might want to disable the “Full Screen” button and make other customization when there is an audio file in the page.
By default, when we insert an audio/video file into page via “Insert Video and Audio” button in the ribbon, an OOTB Media Web Part will be added into the page contains
the file you added, the “Full Screen” button is a part of this Media Web Part.
In consideration of you might have other requirements on designing the style, I would suggest you create a custom Media Web Part instead which will enable you customize
the style as you want.
About creating a custom Media Web Part, you can use the <audio> tag:

TS3697 Many of my photos over 3,000 pixels will not sync. I'm using latest updated iTunes and iOS.

Several of my large file size photos (over 3,000 pixel width) will mot sync, or sync but show different photos. Using latest updated iOS and iTunes software.
After several calls, finally had sr. Tech support advise that there is a bug. I have Windows 7 64 bit.
When will this be fixed?

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if the problem has been resolved.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

How do I place a still photo over a video?

How do I place a still photo over a video, where the sound keeps steady, but the still photo replaces the videos image for a duration?
I've got one placed and it's working great, but can't remember how I did it. I've tried everything. I'm working with iMovie 08'.
It appears like a music item in my project window, a thin blue filled line with the duration in it, just above the video and I can adjust the length of time the still is displayed. (Just like an audio/sound clip) The audio is uninterrupted.
Can anyone help me? Thank you!
Oh... my email is no longer [email protected]
I using [email protected]
I can't figure out how to change my email address in here or if it is possible...

switch-ON the Advanced Tools in iMovie's prefs.
drag your still onto the clip until the cursor gets a Green Plus Sign and choose Cutaway

Premier Elements 12, Inserting Photos into timeline, using transitions, inserting music

I have just recently switched from Premier Elements 8 to 12, after discovering that "expert" looked allot more like what I was used to I have been able to start a new project. However, I don't consider myself to be an "expert".
That said I have a few questions:
I used to be able to insert photos and rearrange them in the "sceneline", I do not see that feature in Premier 12 so am using the "timeline" that is there. However I cannot insert photos or move them around easily, I get my clips reducing in size. How can I insert new photos or move them?
Transitions seemed to have been reduced greatly in the availabilty of them, have they "gone out of favor", I had put a transition inbetween all of my clips in my previous projects with 8. Allot of them were merely the "wipe" feature. What is recommended with 12?
I have not gotten to adding music to this project however have noticed that there are allot of different styles available. However I want to be able to add my own music, can you give me tips on "how to do that", would I just go to the "add media" and get them off my computer and than add it to the audio line?
Thank you ahead of time.

I am not sure why these photos should be reducing in size. It should be the same thing as in your older version, that is, as you hold down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard, with your mouse cursor drag you new file into place in the Timeline. Some people like to use the Ctrl key instead of the Alt key. I prefer the Alt key.
I prefer the Expert workspace rather than the Quick in version 12, but you can still move the images in the Quick Filmstrip spaces with a click and drag, left or right as appropriate. So, I am not sure what you ran into in the Quick workspace in that regard.
Transitions seemed to have been reduced greatly in the availabilty of them, have they "gone out of favor", I had put a transition inbetween all of my clips in my previous projects with 8. Allot of them were merely the "wipe" feature. What is recommended with 12?
There are lots of Transitions under theTransition Tab when you are in Expert workspace, much less in the Quick workspace. This is what you should be seeing in version 12/Expert workspace/Transitions
This is what you had in version 8.0/8.0.1 under Wipes in Timeline view.
3. I have not gotten to adding music to this project however have noticed that there are allot of different styles available. However I want to be able to add my own music, can you give me tips on "how to do that", would I just go to the "add media" and get them off my computer and than add it to the audio line?
Same as before. Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets (if Expert workspace). The Quick workspace does not have that "intermediate" Project Assets. So, it is Add Media/Files and Folders/ and direct to a scene space in the Filmstrip. If you have iTunes music, it may have to be converted to .mp3 or .wav (again same as before).
However, if you are a SmartSound soundtrack user, the SmartSound feature is gone in version 12 which has it counterpart, under Audio Tab, of Music Scores and Sound Effects which end up on the Timeline as .wav files. If you have the old SmartSound soundtracks, they need to be converted to .wav and then the Premiere Elements 12 Add Media/
Please check out the above. If any questions or if you need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thanks.

How do I show still photos with audio-only portion of video?

My raw video is an interview with a talking head. I want the audio portion of the video to continue (with video portion not visible) while I show photos relating to what the head is talking about. How do I do this?

Drag the photo onto the frame where you want it to start.
[See Karsten Schluter's blog for a bug I found and how I got around it.|http://sites.google.com/site/karstenschluter/im08tricks] Scroll down to "the many photos over a clip bug"
Another way:
If you want all slides and no video, you can drag just the audio track into your project by selecting it in the Event and holding down Command and Shift while you drag it into the project.
[Here is a blog entry describing this|http://imovie08.blogspot.com/2007/08/how-to-extract-audio-from-clip.html]
Finally, you could upgrade to iMovie 09 where this is all much easier.

Can no longer see my I-photo photos, when trying to insert photo into Word Document.

I had some computer problems and did upgrade to Snow Leopard from Leopard. Using older MacBook Pro.
Now, when I try to insert a picture into a Word Document, I cannot see my photos!
I am working in a word document, I choose "Insert Photo from my files" and when the window comes up so I can choose the photo to insert... when I select the "photos" choice under the Media section on the Left side of the box that comes up, the box to the right is BLANK, both on the top and bottom! None of my photos come up for selection.
This method to choose photos to insert into documents used to work before... now it is not. After selecting "photos" all my photos would appear in the right box, and I would move through my I-photo events to choose my saved photo and insert it. Yes, photos are showing and present in I-photo. They just won't appear for importing.
This is so frustrating, not to mention time comsuming trying to figure out what is going on and how to fix it.
Can anyone help? Please?

Oroilore-
I do not see a way to disable the Picture Frame icon. I looked at Settings-Picture Frame, but none of the options turns it off. The only way I can thinik of, would be if all of your photos had been deleted. If there were no photos, you couldn't have a slide show!
One thing to try is to reset (reboot) your iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

My storage is mostly full of a category labeled "other." I'm out of memory to the extent that it won't even allow me to update apps. I have moved all photos over to my computer and my music streams through the cloud. Any advice on how to fix this problem?

Can't find some albums when trying to insert photos into other programs

I am having trouble finding albums (and thus pictures) when trying to insert photos into a Word document or upload to mySpace/ facebook etc.
After choosing 'insert<picture<from file<pictures<iPhoto Library' , I have the option of looking into the year-month-date or by album. Since I have a better memory of the 50+ albums I have created rather than their dates, I choose "Albums". This list only contains about half of my albums (with folder icons) and it appears outdated...ie one of the albums no longer exists in iPhoto and has been changed to a folders with several albums in it.
I'm wondering why this is happening or how i can update the album list. I realize i could use the year-month-day thing but that is too frustrating.

Hi chantreya,
iPhoto 5 now stores the Album information in a data xml file. The Albums folder within the iPhoto Library folder is no longer used. At some point, usually after a rebuild, you will no longer have that folder in the Finder.
If you need to access photos from an album it is very difficult for a third party application to navigate the iPhoto Library in order to find the photo you need. You will have to know the date of import in order to find the photo.
There are some third party applications that can read the xml file and can navigate the iPhoto library and show you the Albums. Hopefully more applications will be revised to read this file.
Until then you will have to Share/Export the photos to the desktop. You can then navigate to the desktop to use the photos (example: web uploading from online photo site)
If your application supports drag and drop, you can drag the photo from an open iPhoto Library window into your application.
For email you can also use the email icon within iPhoto to open a message with the highlighted photo attached.
You can also use spotlight to find images in an Album...
This is what I have done using Spotlight to find my images that are in iPhoto albums without opening iPhoto..
In iPhoto, select the album, then select all, go to Photos/batch change.
Change the comments to text. In the text field I put the name of the Album.
Do this for each album.
Close iPhoto.
Open Spotlight and put in the name of the Album ( you have to remember the names of the albums or have then written down)
In the spotlight search results. click on "show all"
Under "Images" click on the "xx more" to show all the images in the album.
Make sure you have it in icon view, the icon view box is the last one on the blue images line.
Now you can control click on the image to "reveal in finder", open in iPhoto or Mail, etc.
I am not sure if this is going to make you happy and it is a little more work, but you can find images in albums and even view them in a slideshow (by clicking the play arrow at the end of the Images highlighted blue line) using Spotlight, all without opening iPhoto.
One important thing to know is you can set up a graphic program to be an external editor (when you double click an image in the library} such as PhotoShop or PS Elements. You set up that within iPhoto Preferences. Just make sure you save the image flattened and with the same name. The edits will then be relected in iPhoto when you hit "save".

Photos over 30 days in photostream but not newer photos

HI,
yesterday i accidently turned of photostream on my iPad and when I turned it back on it did not downloaded all the photos from the last 30 days but did downloaded some photos over 30 days old did?
any suggestions?
thanks
rich

They would be in your photo stream album in the photos app. But if you enabled photo stream on your devices after this 1000 photo limit had been reached, or if you turned it off and then back on, you would only be able to receive the 1000 photos that were still in your photo stream. They only remain on your device as long as you don't turn off photo stream.

Inserting photo into word document with new Yosemite OS X

iPhoto has gone away after downloading the new Yosemite OS X program. Now it is Photos. I am attempting to drag or insert a picture into a word document for work. Unlike the old iPhoto, double clicking on the photo does not allow me to "Copy" so I may then "Paste" on my document. In addition, when I attempt to drag the picture onto the document where I want it, the picture goes right back to the photo library. Tried pretty much everything I know and my tech guys from work. Anyone have this problem or know of the solution?

My photos are not in/on iCloud. In Microsoft Word 2011 I can use
Insert > Photo > Picture from File ...
and then navigate to the my 'Pictures' folder and insert a picture successfully.
Can't find a direct way of going from Photos to Word. In practice, this is not a big issue for me because in most cases I want to reduce the size of the image, which I do by selecting the image(s) I want in Photos.app, then switch to Preview.app, command-N (New from clipboard). Once in Preview.app I can transfer images to Word by drag and drop from the thumbnails, etc. The neat thing about this workflow is one can select several images in Photos at once and have them all open in Preview with one keystroke.
