IOS trailer project won't open in iMac imovie

How do you open an iOS trailer project on my iMac imovie?  I see the trailer where it is saved but it saved it as a document, and will not open in imovie.

Hi,
You can try uploading the project to iTunes from inside the iOS iMovie app. Try tapping the share button. Once it is in iTunes, you should be able to watch it on your mac.

  • IMovie Project Won't Open, Instead Freezes iMovie

    I'm working on an iMovie project that's kind of sizeable- more than 20GB. Initially, I was storing it on an external hard drive while I worked, and things were going slowly, but I was making progress. Occasionally iMovie would freeze up while I was working (leading me to save after every single step), but I was slowly hewing the beast into shape.
    Suddenly, though, I can't get the thing to open. Any attempt to do so leads to the progress bar slowly progressing (during which time I can do little to nothing else on my Mac) until it finally hits a wall and the program crashes. I decanted the file to my hard drive, but got the same result.
    This project is something that I really don't want to lose! Does anyone have suggestions as to how I can get it open?

    Hi
    +internal drive- Free space 8.43 GB (232.57 total), same formatting (only no dual partition)+
    Probably part of this problem.
    I would secure a minimum of 25Gb free space to make Mac OS, iMovie and QuickTime
    to run as expected.
    THEN before running iMovie again do.
    • Open internal hard disk (Macintosh HD - most often)
    • Locate a folder named "User"
    • In this find Your acount - has a small house as an icon
    • In this there is a folder "Library"
    • In this there is a folder "Preferences"
    • In this there are file/s named
    com.apple.iMovie.plist AND LIKE THIS
    Move them out to desktop and NOW re-start iMovie.
    Does Your project opens now after these two actions.
    • Secure free space
    • Delete iMovie pref file/s

  • Lost Power - Now Project Won't Open!

    I'm working on an iMac (10.10.2) with an external hard drive.
    I was working on the project and some construction next door caused the power to go out. Now the project won't open. Every time I try to open it, the program crashes. I can open other projects from the same hard drive, just not the project that I was working on.
    HELP!

    IIf that opens, then go into the Original Media folders and look through all the clips and see if they're OK. Any clip that has an actual image that appears in the Finder should be OK. Any clip that has a generic QT icon may be corrupted. See if it will open in the QT player. You can also use QuickLook in the Finder and step through the files in the list to see if the run.
    if you were titling also check through all the Fonts on your system and make sure none have generic document icons.

  • Imovie project won't open in imovie?

    I was working on my macbook in iMovie '09 on a project on a seagate external hard drive and the events was on the hard drive also. I've never had any problems with it crashing on me until this project and I just used it the day before. After 15 minutes into the project i try adding another title in and it just kept crashing from then on out when i try to add a title and preview the project in full screen.
    To add to problem I unplugged the external hard drive (properly) and plugged it in my iMac imovie '11 and just added one title. Then I took the external hard drive back to my macbook and now the project won't even appear in imovie. And when i find the file itself in the hard drive and click to open it, it opens imovie but still no project. Somebody please help. I would greatly appreciated it.
    It wouldn't be problem to work on it on my imac expect i have other people using it through out the day and my macbook is easier for me to work on where ever i'm at.
    Please somebody say you have the answer?

    I am only guessing but I suspect the problem occurs when they edit their projects on their personal Macs running Yosemite with iMovie 10.0.7.  Editing (and possibly just opening) in 10.0.7 probably makes the projects incompatible with iMovie 10.0.6, the latest version that runs under Mavericks.   
    It would not be the first time that even minor updates to iMovie make backwards-incompatible changes to projects.
    Downgrading form 10.0.7 to 10.0.6 is not at all a straightforward option so other than updating all machines to Yosemite, I'm not aware of a simple fix.

  • IMovie '09 Project Won't Open, Causes iMovie to Crash

    A few days ago, an iMovie project that was fine if a little slow because it was large suddenly started to freeze when I added or tried to edit some audio, forcing me to force quit iMovie. Now today every time I open iMovie and try to open the project, the little rainbow ball pops up and everything in iMovie freezes, forcing me to force quit it again. I removed the project from iMovie and made more space on my computer and iMovie worked fine, but it started acting up again when I put the project back in. I'm worried the project may be corruputed somehow, especially because this is something I worked hard on for a long time now. I've heard there are ways to fix it, such as putting it through TextEdit or Word for Mac, but the project won't open in those programs. (And before you say it, yes I SHOULD have saved a previous version of it in Time Machine, but I didn't.) If there's a way I can fix this project without losing anything, please let me know!

  • Captivate (5) project won't open in Web Browser

    Hello,
    Since a few weeks I can't open my projects in the web browser. Accept one of the projects (only questionslides), i have been searching for differents in the setttings but i couldn't find any differtens. When I publish the project in a .swf still the project won't open.
    When I will get a preview in Web Browser or publish, the project is opening in the Web Browser and it looks like the project fade in and out in not even a second. A quick view of the background is visible . But i don't get any massage of error of something. And the page turn white.To preview the project in capitvate is no problem.
    I hope somebody could help me out.
    Roanne

    Hello,
    I do not know if you have Text Animations in your project? If yes, probably you are having issues due to the latest Flash Player. There is a hotfix to be found in this Captivate blog post:

  • 3000 Frame Project Won't Open.

    My 3000 frame project won't open now. The beach ball just spins. But New and Older projects will open fine.
    I trashed my pref and restarted but no luck.

    Got it. I just went to a "auto save vault" and choose the latest save and it opened.
    Here is my Project Pane. How can I speed up the playback on this?

  • My Robohelp html 8 project won't open after one warning and error message

    I'm currently using Robohelp HTML 8 and when I open my project  I first get the following message:
    After I click OK, I get this error message:
    The project won't open after that. When I look ate my files they seem to be intact even though the message says the folder is missing from
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Hi Joy
    Unless I'm mistaken, K would be a network drive, no?
    Unfortunately RoboHelp is only one of a host of applications that doesn't fare well if you try to make edits to a project while it resides on a network drive.
    Try copying the project to your local C drive. Perhaps create a folder named Projects and copy your project to a folder named Primo Intranet inside that folder so it looks like this:
    C:\Projects\Primo Intranet
    Once you do this, try opening your project again and you will likely have better luck.
    Cheers... Rick

  • FCPX Project won't open

    Hi,
    I recently updated my fcpx after doing this one of my projects won't open. In the route project file an additional current version file has been produced it reads as follows - CurrentVersion.fcpproject-journal - Now. When I delete it FCP will open and try to read the project file but it then just wont open fcp at all it just stays on the screen saying reading project.
    Can anyone help?
    Tom

    Interesting…2 of everything.
    Close FCP. In the Finder, go your project folder and open it. Take the "normal-looking" back-up and move it one level up in the folder hierarchy, so it's at the same level as the CurrentVersion file – like so.
    If there is another oback-up (assuming there are two as in the event) take it and the the two CurrentVersion.fcp files and hide them – as Ian recommended – in a temp folder.
    Take a screen shot of your back up file in case you need to change the name back later. Change the name of the moved back up file to CurrentVersion.fcpproject.
    Open FCP and try to open the project.

  • RH8 project won't open

    I have an RH8 project that won't open today while it has opened every day for several months now. I deleted the .cpd file but no luck. What to do?
    By the way, I searched this forum for "RH8 project won't open" and got 0(zero) results. Anyone know why?

    Okay, I see part of my problem. There are duplicate project files
    in different places: in c:\ My Robohelp Projects and c:\documents and settings\my documents\ My Robohelp Projects. Also, the xpj file was in the latter. So I moved it to c:\ My Robohelp Projects. In addition, I compared the list of documents in the two c: areas. I moved the xpj file to the c:\ My Robohelp Projects.
    And there was a folder with the same name of my project within my project file, which is Callout Guide, so it was c:\ My Robohelp Projects\Callout Guide\Callout Guide. I inherited this project and did not want to make any changes at first since the project was generating and working, until yesterday. So with the duplicate folder, Callout Guide, I copied all the files from it into the first Callout Guide folder, which was c:\ My Robohelp Projects\Callout Guide.
    If you're still following me, I believe I have all the files I need in the correct folder. So I opened the xpj file, which opened but is missing all the project files. I know the files are there but I need to point something in the right direction. And all the topics are x'd in red; when I try to search it can't find the file. Here are two screen shots:

  • My project won't open... It says "locating media" and then gets stuck. What do I do?

    My project won't open... It says "locating media" and then gets stuck. What do I do?

    try starting a new project and importing your project using the media browser. if that doesn't work just import the sequences from the project via media browser.

  • My old logic 9 projects won't open properly in logic X

    My old logic 9 projects won't open properly in logic X, even after saving as logic X files with all of the assets. None of the audio files are there, nor any of the data. It is just a blank project. Any ideas?

    I'm sorry that my post is not going to be very helpful , but I would like to chime in and say I am experiencing this problem too ,
    and I consider it to be BOOOOL -- SHUUUT !!!!
    I am also experiencing apple app version-incompatibility between PAGES DOCUMENTS , in my pages app , which is just ridiculous !!!
    Not being able to open word documents between 1 update of an app !??!?
    I used to use apple products because it was convenient and user-friendly. This and many other things are driving me away.
    It's getting to be a big irritation.
    It is getting to be more and more like windoZe in the sense of being plug-and-PRAY.

  • Premiere crashed, my project won't open because of an "unknown error," and my autosave apparently stopped working 6 hours ago... Any solution?

    I'm working in Premiere Pro CC 2014 on an early 2014 iMac.  I started to notice my session was getting kind of buggy - audio clips started missing from my timeline, effect controls on some of my video clips had set themselves to the defaults.   So I was trying to fix some of these things as I was editing.  I save compulsively (like after every couple of edits),  so I had not noticed that my session was no longer auto-saving. 
    Suddenly Premiere crashed. The recovery file will not open "due to an unknown error."  The original file that crashed will not open either (same message), and I notice the file size is about half of what it should be.  When I tried to open an auto-saved version, I discovered that the last auto-save was last night at about 10 p.m.  (I quit working last night at about 1 a.m., so it just spontaneously stopped autosaving midway through my edit session.) 
    I followed all the suggestions I could find in forums.  I trashed preferences, and I moved all my media into other folders.  But the session won't open even far enough that it starts asking for media.  When I create a new project and try to import my old edit sequence, dynamic link won't even get to the point where it asks me to select what sequences I want to import.  It just sits there forever trying to open the file and can't.
    Any  suggestions?

    Additional info - As I look further into the problem, it's even worse than I thought.  The autosave files that say they're from last night are actually referencing work from days ago.  So evidently, my auto-save is either putting incorrect time stamps on the files, or the project files are referencing old sequences.  Either way, I cannot seem to locate a project file that contains a reasonably recent version of my cut, even though the time/date stamps on the files indicate they shouldn't be that old. 

  • IDVD project won't open

    I've been working on an iDVD 06 project which is relatively complex - a number of submenus and short movies (it's 4.4Gb archived). iDVD 06 won't open it: it opens the iDVD window, takes a long time loading themes then the header bar says Loading Project, but it doesn't get any further and then crashes. I've tried trashing all the iDVD-related preferences and caches I can find to no avail. I've tried opening the project on another machine (an iMac G4) and the same problem arises.
    I really don't want to have to start this project again from scratch - any ideas? Or if I do have to start from scratch, what should I avoid doing to prevent a recurrence?

    Welcome to discussions, Tom
    Does this project reside on an external drive that is not formatted OS X extended?

  • FCP 5 on Mac Pro 2.66 GHz Dual-Core - project won't open

    I feel SICK. I bought this Mac Pro and a new monitor, transferred all my data from my iMac and tried to open my FCP 5 project and what opened was a "new" project screen... yet there was a tab with my project's name on it as if it should have been there. Can I run my fcp 5 on this new Mac Pro?

    I was afraid of that. However, in the the last 15 minutes, I opened another project and that opened, seemed to play correctly, so I'm confused. Is 5.0 not for Intel because of speed? Or actual editing capabilities? (Just need an education on that). So when I get FCP 2, once I've opened the program, can it read FPC 5.0 projects? And will I be able to convert the 5.0 projects into the FCP 2?
    Good to know about the gigs. We ordered 4 the other day, so we should have 5 total since 1 came with the computer. Thanks for your guidance.
