Integrating still photos over video but keeping existing audio

I am currently trying to make a video that includes still photos. I have the video clips i want in my final project, as well as the photos. I am having a problem keeping the existing audio playing while my still photos are shown. I want to make it so you see photos while I am talking about them in the video clip, but then allows it to return to the video in the same duration...let me know what you think.

In iMovie/Preferences, make sure that Advanced Options are turned on.
Drag your photo from the Photo Browser and drop it on top of the video clip at the frame where you want it to start. A contextual menu will pop up. Choose "Cutaway".

  • Replacing part of video but keeping original audio

    I have a clip whose audio I want to use but I need to replace the video--what is the best way to do this?
    I deleted the video track so now I basically have a blank space to fill in. Do I just need to find another part of my shot that is the same duration & drop it in, or is there a better approach?

    That will do the trick.
    Switch Linking off and adjust the Track Destinations accordingly if you have trouble dropping in only the video.
    FCE is non-destructive so your origianl captue stays in tact.

  • HT4623 I lost my apps and iTunes after a restore, but it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone 4. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos, but I'm still getting the same message.

    I did an iphone 4 software update. It then asked me to do a "restore" in order for me to be able to use the latest iTunes. I did a "restore" to "factory settings" (this was the only option listed) thinking I'd be able to sync later and get everything back and ended up losing all my purchased apps and iTunes. When I open iTunes, "Welcome to your new iphone" and it says I can re-do the "restore" and choose my lastest update. I assume this will give me back my apps and iTunes. When i choose to do this, it says there isn't enough space on the iPhone. How do I know how much space needs to be freed up? I keep deleting photos and videos from the phone, but I'm still getting the same message every time I re-try. I don't want to delete everything, but I don't know what to do...? Thanks!

    Thanks but I think it has something to do with the 'restore'. in the newest iTunes 11, when I click on the tab "iphone", it redirects me to the "welcome to your new iphone" page and asks about doing a 'restore'. I already did a 'restore', but it went to the original factory settings and I want to 'restore' to my lastest back up as of April 12. When I choose that option, it says my iphone doesn't have enough space. I don't know how much I need to delete in order to make it work. I've deleted lots, but it only has 4.1 GB available. I'm not sure why this isn't enough to do a 'restore'. I don't want to delete all my photos and videos, but maybe I will have to?...7.7GB is used up for that. I can't sync or do ANYTHING...

  • 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

  • Small still photo on video i pod w/ music but no streaming...

    i have a new video ipod and i only get a small still photo w/ music but no streaming video. any ideas on how to get the video working and larger?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    If you are listening to music, then you will only get music and album art, not video. You have to have the videos to watch the videos.
    Now, if you have videos on your iPod and when you watch them you only hear the audio and see a small shot of the video, then there are a couple of things to do, which should fix the problem.
    First, make sure that you are accessing the video from the Videos menu, and not anywhere else. If you try to play a video, music video, video podcast, etc. from anywhere but the videos menu, you won't get video.
    Second, make sure TV Out is set to off or ask (and then select no). Go to Videos-->Video Settings-->TV Out-->Off. Now try playing the video. It should play correctly.

  • It keeps saying running out of disk space need to delete some photos and videos but i already cleared out all my photos and videos and it keeps saying the same thing

    it keeps saying running out of disk space need to delete some photos and videos but i already cleared out all my photos and videos and it keeps saying the same thing.

    Connect the iPod to your computer. Click on the iPod under Devices and iTunes. How large is the "other" category as shown in the colored bargraph? If larger than about 3/4 GB, restore the iPod. That large of "other" indicates corrupted files.

  • Adding still photo to video

    I have a short video that I want to add a few still photos into, but I don't want to disrupt the flow of sound. What I mean is, the sound needs to keep lined up with the video even when the still is playing. I tried to crop the portion of video I wanted to eliminate and checking it's size and making the still the same size. Deleting the video and placing the still in it's place. I don't think this will work because the still can't be made the same size as the eliminated video. I hope I'm saying this correctly.

    There is a function called Paste Over at Playhead, accessed from the Advanced menu, that is designed to handle this sort of thing.
    So, if you want to insert a still into a video, and have the audio continue to play while the still is playing, you would first check the box in your iMovie general preferences to Extract Audio When Using "Paste Over at Playhead". Then you place your still in the timeline, Control-copy it, place your playhead in the spot in the video where you want to insert the still, and then select Paste Over at Playhead from the Advanced menu. The still will be inserted and the audio will continue to play while the still is being played.
    If you do not want the audio to play while the still is playing, follow the same procedure as above, except first go to your iMovie general preferences and uncheck the box that says Extract Audio When Using "Past Over at Playhead".
    Play around with it a little until you get what you want.

  • I was filling a form online, then I got to where I had to upload an Microsoft document but when I clicked on upload document I only had the option of uploading photos and videos, but not Microsoft doc. Please help.... How do I upload Microsoft doc related

    I was filling a form online, then I got to where I had to upload a Microsoft document but when I clicked on upload document I only had the option of uploading photos and videos, but not Microsoft doc. Please help.... How do I upload Microsoft doc  and other related office documents?

    tis true
    I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
    I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

  • HT201317 don't see all of my picture, see in usage 6000 photos and videos but in photo see recently added

    don't see all of my picture, see in usage 6000 photos and videos but in photo see recently added 576 and 1486 videos
    what am i doing!?

    HEY--
    You're not alone. The same thing is happening to me. This is what happened: First, my computer had too many photos on iPhoto, and I couldn't download anymore, (I have a G5 and lots of memory too but it didn't matter since I have tons of pictures)and my computer would say my start-up disk was full. I tried to delete some images to no avail. So I decided to buy another hard drive. I wanted to use that one for my photo library rather than the first hard drive, so I had enough room to work with.
    I still couldn't download photos to it, since iPhoto was still on my first hard drive. So, I tried moving iPhoto to my second hard drive by dragging it and placing it there. It asked where my library was, so I directed it to the location I thought it was in my Pictures folder.
    This is when things started getting mixed up. It no longer was backing up my iPhoto library to my Pictures folder. Whenever it would ask me to update my thumbnail cache, it started substituing dashed lines instead of my photos in its place. Little by little, this was happening. I could still download new photos into my iPhoto Library, but some photos from the past were getting corrupted and I couldn't salvage them or see them in any way, other than the dashed lines.
    Recently, I have had two weddings to edit, and I cannot see the photos for the reception of one of them after I updated the thumbnail cache again. I thought it would bring my photos back, but rahter it made them so I can't see them!
    I have read the other posts about this same issue, and I am about to just take my computer into MacDocs, but rather I'd like assistance here if possible since I need this taken care of, and I pay $100 every year for MacPro, and noone was available there to help me!!!
    Please... any help would be appreciated. I too nervous to move anything else, and I would like some REAL help to this issue.
    Thank you in advance!

  • Hi, I'm using imovie 11, I want to delete a clip video at the end of the project, but keep the audio, everytime  I delete the video, the audio is also deleted, please help!

    Hi, Excuse my English, I'm using imovie 11, I want to delete a clip video at the end of the project, but keep the audio over the fade to black, everytime  I delete the video, the audio is also deleted, please help!

    I assume you are trying to end the clip/project with a fade to black, or something that just doesn't cut so instant.
    One thing i'm thinking you can try is to Add a "Transition Clip" to the end, and try your first method. (with Detached Audio + Delete Selection. (Yellow highlight was deleted selection) Do you need something to end like this?
    If you can, put screenshot up (Shift+Comm+4), if i'm not on the right idea. It seems like an easy fix, with a few ways of doing it. You can also add a blank image to end project, sub titles or Add,Cutaway fade +Opacity adjust.

  • Overlay a still image over video.

    I am editing a lot of video and have a need to lay an image over the video, like down the left column or even across the bottom.
    What I am doing is editing footage of a poker game we filmed and I want to be able to display the players' hole cards like they do on TV.
    Does anyone have a solution for this? I've looked and looked with no success.
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    In iMovie 08, when you overlay a photo over video, it takes the whole screen. iMovie 9, which comes out later this month, should have the ability to do what you are describing.
    Also, if you have QuickTime Pro, you can do this as well. QuickTime Pro is not as intuitive as iMovie so get a good book to help. One such book available from frequent forum participant [QuickTime Kirk|http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/book/index.html]

  • I am trying to download a video on my Ipad 2 but it says my storage is full and to delete Photo or videos but i don't have any

    I am trying to download a video on my Ipad 2 but it says my storage is full and to delete Photo or videos but i don't have any

    Look at the capacity bar of the iPad in iTunes -  at the bottom of the screen in the iTunes window while the iPad is connected to sync - and make sure that you do have enough space left on the device. If you do have nought space left - quit iTunes, restart the computer and restart the iPad and try again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can also try a reset and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
