IPhoto not showing movies in entirety

Running iPhoto 8.1.2... any movies (taken with various cameras, iPod or iPad) now only show up in Events as being 1 second long... and will only play that long when run.
I've tried importing a new movie, and it stayed and would run in its entirety.
Any comments or suggestions?

Download and use Find Any File to search for your movies by searching for the movie extension, i.e. .mov or whatever it might be. Find Any File can search areas that Spotligh can't like packages and invisible folders and will display those found in a manner that you can locate them easily. If your movies are on the hard drive but are just hidden FAF will find them:

HT201272 my quick link to previously purchased does not show movies. Why? I am trying to relocate a movie I have "lost"

I am trying to relocate a movie I have lost on my itunes. My quick link to purchased items on itunes does not show movies. How can I get my movie back. I have part of the download, the extras but movie is missing. only purchased in Novermber2011 but I have changed computer. The other one died. Any ideas.

Subsequent movie downloads are currently only available in the USA and only some of those are (depending upon studio).
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not available in all countries; apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Movies currently available in the USA only. Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.

My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes. When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work.

My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes. When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work. This problem only occurs whenever I am using my netbook. It doesn't happen when I use a different computer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and am not sure what else to do from here.

You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.

*Some* movies in iPhoto not showing in iMovie

Over the last few years I have shot many movies on my Canon S400 and loaded them into iPhoto. All my movies are .avi format. However, iMovie is not recognizing them all so some are not showing up in the Event Library. This problem appeared directly after the last update when it rebuilt the thumbnail library. Does anyone know how to get iMovie to recognize the previously viewable videos?

Thanks, but I need to clarify - this is not a matter of iMovie 08 not recognizing compressed formats. All the movies are from the same camera, as raw .avi's, and non-compressed or edited in any way.
Please clarify further. Am interested in how you define what "raw AVI" is. Have never heard of any form of digitized audio or digitized video that was not coded (i.e., compressed) in one form or another. Please explain how that works. Better yet, please post a screen capture of of the QT Player "Inspector" window showing the format of this "raw AVI."
iMovie is for some reason erroneously not seeing some of them.
As stated above, iMovie '08 can't "see" anything it can't edit.
I was able to export one of the "unseen" videos to my desktop and import it into iMovie 08 from there
I hate to break the news to you, but exporting, by definition, implies a re-compression of the file. And, unless you exported to the very same compression format with the very same settings, you have "converted" the file. In fact, even then, the possibility exists that the file may have been 'flattened" with the end result that an incompatible track may have been discarded or merged into the core audio/video tracks and thus made the file compatible.
but that's a lot of needless hassle.
Better get used to it. Until you can show that both the audio and video tracks are compatible and that there is no other content (such as a "Tween" track) included in the file, there exists at least a presumption that your AVI files as uploaded from your digital camera may not be "edit" compatible with iMovie '08. You can, of course check on this yourself by comparing the the "Inspector" information of you non-importing files with that of your imported file.
All the videos are in the same .avi format.
Are you sure. Some digital cameras have multiple video clip modes which may either changed settings within the same compression formats or actually change the compression formats.
All of them were recognized and worked just fine before the last update. Now, some get recognized by iMovie 08, some others don't.
Apple may have changed "error trapping" routines for the update you referenced. It may be checking intersects of audio data rates against audio sampling rate "standards" now. If you check export combinations you will find that only certain combinations are allowed in QT. Once again, you could help yourself tremendously by simply comparing the statistics of files that work with those of ones that don't work.
This is NOT as issue due to compression formats.
You keep saying this but offer nothing in the way of evidence to support your assertions.

AppleTV not showing Movies in MobileMe Gallery

I created a movie in the latest iMovie and used its "share" to send the movie to MobileMe. I see the Movie in my Gallery (online/web) and I can see/play it in the Gallery app on my iPad. But the Movie does not show up on my ATV (2nd gen.).
I saw earlier discussions on this question that suggested that logging in without the @me.com (or mac.com) suffix on the ATV device was the fix. Well, I'm logged in without any suffix -- always have been, but logged out and back in just to confirm.
Also, when I play the movie on my iPad in the Gallery app I am offered the option to use AirPlay to stream to the ATV, for viewing on my TV. This option works with other videos (e.g., ones from the Elgato app), but when I click on the AirPlay choice while the Gallery app is playing the movie, it does not appear on my TV/ATV.
Any ideas? The generation of the movie out of iMovie did not give any errors.

Update...I can now see the videos if they are published through iMovie instead of through iPhoto...Don't really understand why that works, but at least it's something...

How to get iPhoto slide show .mov to YouTube?

I've created a slide show in iPhoto which I want to upload to YouTube.
It is created as a movie, .mov 45 mb
I thought I could load it directly to YouTube, but apparently I have to convert it. Can someone tell me how to do the conversion?
YouTube says the preferred formats for video are H.264, MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 preferred.
Thanks for your assistance,
Jeanie

Thanks, Larry,
I've downloaded this software -- great tool.
However, I still am unable to upload to YouTube. I exported the mov to create an MPEG-4. It plays perfectly on my computer, but I still get an error message when trying to upload to YouTube.
There is another weird thing that has been happening, which might be the problem or a clue to the problem.
In iPhoto, my first slide is a title screen. However, I noticed that after I uploaded the mov to Audio Acrobat, a black slide precedes the Title slide. I thought maybe something happened at Audio Acrobat (haven't taken the time to call them). I have this video playing at one of my web sites, and there is a black slide at the beginning.
OK, so back to this .... the same thing happens when I open the iPhoto file in MPEG Streamclip. It starts with a black slide rather than the title slide.
To test to see if a black slide got added in iPhoto, I use the back arrow with the title screen visible and the last slide shows. In other words, iPhoto is not showing a black slide.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jeanie

IPhoto not showing up in media browser

My iPhoto files are not showing up in my media browser in iWeb. Any suggestions?

Alright, I solved this problem at least for myself. Hopefully this works for all of you guys.
(Note: Quite all iLife and iWork applications before doing this)
Step 1. Download and install Pacifist http://www.charlessoft.com/
Step 2. Insert Snow Leopard Disc
Step 3. Run Pacifist
Step 4. Click "Open Apple Install Discs"
Step 5. Select Install Disc in Pop Up Dialog and select "Choose" (it can take a couple of minutes for the disc to load)
Step 6. In the search field at the top of the window type "mediabrowser" (no space) and the second result should be a folder. When you select it it should show that the file path is Library>Application Support>iLifeMediaBrowser
Step 7. Select the iLifeMediaBrowser folder and click the "install" button in the top left of the window
Step 8. Click "Install" in the pop up dialog then input your password in the next window and hit ok
Step 9. Enjoy your media browser being up and running again
If there is a dialog that says something about possible file damage or something to that effect, just hit continue. You'll be a o.k. and up in running again.
I hope this helps any of you!

Iphotos not showing up in iMovie project

I am dragging my photos from iphoto into iMovie to add to a new project. Then when I play the project, they are not showing up. What is going wrong?

Hi all
I am having the same problem - all a bit wierd. Yesterday I could drag and drop images from finder into my project. Today, I can drag andf drop the images from finder and they display in the project - but not when it is played.
I tried importing the images into iphoto and dragging them from the media selection window - still no joy - I can see them in the proejct - but they just don't show when played.
Is it because the project has been marked as finished in some way - although I haven't finalised it?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Not showing movie in menu

My Apple tv does not show the movie or tv series in the menu, so assume it is not able to contact itunes. I have access to internet, as I can watch youtube clips on it.
Anybody have had this problem before? I have not changed any password etc in itunes lately, and I can use the same apple ID from my Ipad.

I absolutely love the TV also but I am about to return it. It is driving me crazy. My biggest two gripes about it.
1. It is not being recognized by my computer. I have restarted everything many times and removed everything from my network and tried to re add it but it just doesn't help.
2. I always have to resync everything because I have all my media on an external hard drive which is attached to my time capsule. I am constantly having to put in my password (for the time capsule) to make my computer hook up again with the external drive. It is infuriating. Whenever I try to watch a TV show (The Office recently) it says "file format not recognized). I have to go and re enter my password and then resync the TV.
Can anyone answer this question? How do I get iTunes to recognize TV?

IPhoto not showing RAW pics, and crashing on Create New Library

hi there
i was just organising (tagging, deleting) pics in iPhoto 9.1 when the RAW pics started showing up as just blank placeholders - i'll clarify that: they were showing previously, however my perception of them 'disappearing' may have been between iPhoto sessions.
my iPhoto library is mostly JPEGs, with the RAW pics being a recent addition courtesy of a Canon EOS 5D MkII. the iPhoto library resides on a 500GB external harddrive. the iPhoto library was backed up by way of copying the entire iPhoto folder from the 500GB external harddrive to a separate 1TB external harddrive - this back-up process was done prior to the addition of more recent RAW pics, and the memory card from which all the RAW pics came from has been wiped several times since. some RAW pics taken in December 2011 are showing; none of the RAW pics taken in January 2012 are showing.
what i've done so far:
1. Option-Command-opened iPhoto and ticked all boxes to rebuild the library and the RAW pics are still not showing. this rebuild process has been done at least three times now.
2. opened the iPhoto Library (via Show Package Contents) and confirmed that the pic files are still there in the Masters folder. (they are identified by the date the photos were taken, the CR2, and can be viewed in Preview.)
3. installed the iPhoto 9.2.1 Update and the RAW Camera Update 3.9, with no change in the RAW pics' visibility.
4. Option-opened iPhoto and -
a. - created a new library (on the 1TB external HD, separate to the 'backup') into which i -
b. - tried to import the entire iPhoto Library from the 500GB external HD but -
c.   this import ended in an "iPhoto quit unexpectedly" message. unfortunately, i did not keep the error report for this.
5. Option-Command-opened iPhoto to create a new library on the 1TB HD but this has ended abruptly in an "iPhoto quit unexpectedly" message. this has happened twice, and i have kept one of the error reports.
6. downloaded and installed the latest iPhoto Library Manager and -
a. - tried to Rebuild the library but -
b. - iPhoto quit unexpectedly - i have kept this error report - while -
c. - iPhoto Library Manager gave the error message "'iPLM'/'ADDK' (returnID 3)".
interspersed with the above steps, i have run Disk Utility Repair Permissions after each crash.
so.
i know the files are still there. but iPhoto won't show them. i've trawled these forums and done - or tried doing - some of the fixes, all to no avail.
please can someone help.

Iphoto not showing images

Some of my photos are not showing in iPhoto,i can see them when i open the events tab but when i click on the image to view i get a black screen with an exclamation mark,this does not happen on all images,on the same event i can have 10 images but only see 2 and the rest will not show,all the 10 images would have been taken on the same day,i have tried option/command and open iPhoto to restore thumbnails but this did not work

This indicates a disconnect between the Thumbnail and the original
this can be caused by two things
1 - User action deleting items from inside the iPhoto library - can be directly - can be from the All images list (never delete from there) - can be from running cleanup software like MacKeeer, CleanMac2 or other dangerous, defective software that improperly deletes or changes things in the iPhoto library - if you have done any of these things you must restore your backup from before you did them and damaged your iPhoto library - and I recommend getting rid of any "clean up software" ASAP (although being essentially MalWear it is not easy)
2 - corruption of the iPhoto library - If it is not #1 then Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your database

Iphoto not showing some pictures?

Hello. I have a slight problem. Some photos in iphoto will not show up. They are like a grey box with a "!" in them. I just rebuilt the thumbnails and they're still not there. Now I'm doing the longer rebuild. I did save the pictures to a dvd just incase (but this was while the pictures were still gone, so those pics are not saved) But I did not save my videos I have. Is rebuilding something else going to get those pictures back? And if so would I loose anything on my library. (Most importantly, my videos.) Thanks for the help in advance!

The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder in the Finder.
Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose the top three options.
Regards
TD

IPhoto not showing content on iPhone

My iPhone has some content (images and video) that are not showing up in iPhoto. But iPhoto says all items have already been imported. There's no way to pick items to make it import them.
iPhone photos settings has Optimize iPhone storage on. Is that related to my issue?

Yes. Under Albums/All Photos.
"All Photos" is showing all photos, not only your camera roll. You will only be seeing "All Photos", if iCloud Photo Library (Beta) has been enabled, and then this view is showing you all photos in iCloud. See this link: Get help finding your Photos in iOS 8 or later - Apple Support
To download the iCloud photos in addition to your Camera Roll, use the "Photos Beta" app on your iCloud page:

Iphoto not showing imported photos in events

I have been using iphoto for quite a while with very few problems. Recently I have added an iPhone and an apple TV into my apple ecosystem. I have recently noticed that my iphoto library is NOT showing photos imported from 3rd party sources such as my android phone, in the events section of the interface. The photos ARE present in the 'photos' section which leads me to believe that they are IN the library. But when i look at the events and select one say for 3/24 it will only display the photos taken from my wifes iphone and NOT the ones taken from my andriod and imported using the add to library function. I have attempted all four options in the command-option iphoto startup and have gotten no where.
Many of you might that that this is a non issue as the photos are present in the 'photo' section. but as i prefer to use the fullscreen mode in iphoto i do not have access to the 'photos' tab in full screen, only the 'events'.
could my appletv or iPhone or appletv be a contributing factor? Is there an option in events to only display iPhone imported photos?
Any help would be appricaited I am pulling my hair out here.

1 - Photos and events are simply two different views of the same photos - your iPhoto library - so any photo that is in one is always also in the other - you are just looking in the wrong place
2 - the most common issue is incorrect dates on photos so you look in the wrong location for the event - in the photos view right click on one of the photos that you are not seeing in an event and show event
3 - another possiblity is the sort order of the events - verify it under the view menu ==> sort events
4 - No - it is not your Apple TV nor is it your iPhone
