Is there a way in iMovie 10 to add chapter markers?

I used this feature constantly in previous versions of iMovie, but don't see a way to do this in version 10. Has this been dropped from version 10?

I figured out a way to easily add the chapter markers (the lack of the option in iMovie was driving me up a wall).
I installed SimpleMovieX.  There is a sample version (a bit slower, and limit on the number of chapters) and a paid version.  Between this and another app (MP4Tools), I've saved a lot of time and grief.   Better yet, it does it without needing to re-render.  Just modifies the metadata.  I'm attaching a screengrab.

    You can try requesting it via this page : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    But utlimately it's the TV studios choice, they are the people who will have to grant Apple a license to have it in the Australian store.

    Depending on your choice of workflows, it appears you can still
    1) Add chapter marks manually with QT 7 Pro,
    2) Add chapter markers graphically using GarageBand,
    3) Use a video editor to set chapter markers graphically,
    4) Use a DVD conversion/burning app to set specific or add equi-interval chapter markers, or
    5) Use a media/device player that adds playback only chapter makers when no chapter track is embedded within the file.
    What kind of chapter markers are you referring to here? Mine are not "stripped out" during normal use but can be automatically removed during various conversion workflows.

  • Using the app "find my I Phone"....is there a way I am able to add my step daughters phone to mine if her mother already has one set w her phone?

    I have my children's phones downloaded and working properly using the " Find my I Phone"

    For you to be able to use "find my iPhone" to find your children's devices, you would need to have their appleID and password - and enter it each time.  You can only locate one at a time. 
    You may find better results using "find my friends", as you can display multiple devices in the single app.
    You will need to download find my friends on all the devices, and add & accept the requests, but then you would be able to see everyone.

  • IMovie to iDVD re:Chapter Markers

    I have been working on a video for the past few weeks and using iMovie '09 I assembled the clips, added audio and added in chapter markers as well. I have tried to Share>iDVD and Share>Media Browser and both options do not show my chapter markers. The video I am working on is 1:42:21 so yes... fairly long but not TOO long for one DVD or anything like that.
    When I drag random clips into a new project (all of 41 seconds) and add chapter markers I can Share>iDVD and the markers come up fine in iDVD but when I try to do the same with my 1hr+ movie it takes about 2:30 hours to render and then I still get no chapter markers. I feel like I am spinning my wheels and there is definitely a way to make this happen.
    Is there an iDVD or iMovie master out there who can help me out? I am getting very frustrated and have probably tried about 10-15 times (rendering at 2-4 hours each!) I don't understand WHY the chapter markers will show up for the short video and I do everything the same for the long video and get nothing. PLEASE HELP!

    Hi appleNewbie34
    And welcome to apple discussions. All of my own iDvd'09 projects to date have been well under 60 mins. so I don't know how much help I can offer you on this particular issue of a dvd that approaches nearly 2 hrs. You claim that your shorter projects have no chapter marker issues. Exactly how long /short were those initial projects and did they incorporate the same type of video? Or did the source video also change on these longer projects?
    Here's what I was able to find and hopefully some of this will help but if not just come on back.
    First, I'd recommend you delete all encoded assets. Let's start again (even though you may have already done this many times before).
    Second I'd like you to quit iDvd.
    Third, drag and drop the plist for iDvd to the trash. Looks like this:
    com.apple.iDvd.plist
    Fourth, Restart your mac.
    Fifth, repair permissions from apple's disc utility.
    Sixth, fire up iDvd Also please make sure all of your titles fall within the TV Safe area like this:
    Click Here:
    Then follow these steps to create a disc image to the desktop:
    Click Here
    Seventh, now I'd like you to test the disc image for proper playback with apple's dvd player application as follows:
    Lastly, let's assume it plays exactly as expected (chapters and all) .... Now it's time to burn the image to Dvd-r. I recommend using Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, or Maxell. Please avoid using Memorex while we troubleshoot.
    Feel free to post back with the results.

  • How can I add chapter markers in the new iMovie (2013)?

    I like to have chapter markers in my movies so that when I make the dvd the menu allows me to go to different chapters easily in the movie.  The old version of imovie had this feature and I can't seem to find it in this new version.

    Since Apple discontinued iDVD the newest version of iMovie can't create chapter markers.
    Fine, so how do I set chapters for my Podcasts and QuickTime movie ?

  • Is there a way to directly connect/group a chapter marker to the first frame of a clip?

    I have over 6 hours of SD clips on my timeline.   I ended up having to add more clips throughout the timeline.   I was able to "group" the titles to their respecttive clips so I don't have to deal with moving them when I move their clip.   Now I am curious to know if there is a way to link the Chapter Markers to the first frame of their respective clips so that when I move the clip, so the Chapter Marker moves with it?
    BTW, I know it is best to put the Chapter Markers in last b4 I go on to Encore.   While I was working in Encore I realized it would be more meaningfull to create and add several After Effects "AVI" files between several of my clips.   This work in progress would be a lot easier if I did not have to keep re-adjusting the Chapter Markers everytime I modified the timeline.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Duane  

    Thanks for your suggestion about using the clip markers.   I tried them on a test clip.   They did not come down to the timeline.  Besides, I would want them labeled.   Right now all my clips have a marker that is labeled with the date and location.   The chapter markers are labeled the same way.   I have a spread sheet that list the dates of all the Chapter Markers which connect to the dates on the menu.     This seems like an old fashion way to do things for such a sophisticated software.   Maybe I should put in a feature suggestion to Adobe.   I would do that, but I am afraid that I may embarrass myself as being the only one that ever asked for something like that.   Or they would accuse me of misusing their software.  
    Again, thanks for your suggestion.

  • In iPhoto, is there a way  I can paint or add and arrow to any picture to point out a certain detail ???? thank you for your assistance, Fredout

    in iPHOTO is there a way where I can paint a black arrow or add a pre-set arrow ( from font menu ) onto one of my photos to point out a certain detail / location.
    Please be kind and advise, manfred frrom Jupiter

    Export the Photo to your Desktop and open it with Preview, then in Preview go to Tools and select Annotate to Add Arrows, Ovals, Rectangles or Text.

  • Is there a way to use C to add comments to existing SWF?

    I know I can import a swf, but if I try to preview it, I
    can't see what frame it stopped on in order to put my
    comment/highlight boxes in. Is there another way?

    Hi Ben
    Just my opinion here, but I think you will find it to be more
    trial and error than anything else. Basically you will need to note
    the approximate time you wish to see the elements, then stage them
    on the Captivate Timeline for the slide. Then preview. And tweak.
    Rinse and repeat.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Is there any way to disable "Checking Your Add-ons" window that comes when user starts Firefox after update for the first time?

    we have over 1500 firefox users and its very confusing to them if after update they start their Firefox and this "Checking Your Add-ons" window comes.
    It would be much appreciated if it can somehow skipped this or do it silently.

    Unfortunately this link does not help.
    We currently have 3.6.x versions of Firefox in most computers, and if i do a silent install via sccm to version 12, then if user starts the new firefox for the first time, it checks addons, like java quick starter and browsing protection (f-secure) etc. Second time when they start firefox, it starts normally.
    My question is - is there some way to avoid this first run addon compability checking?
    I've tried numerous preferences in mozilla.cfg, nothing helps so far.

  • Why did Apple iMovie get rid of chapter markers?

    Why would Apple ever get rid of chapter markers in iMovie? That is a really ignorant decision because that's one of the reasons that made iMovie great before. I know there are ways around it, but why would I want to export to another Apple app or a third-party app to add chapters when I can do it in iMovie (pre-'08 version).
    It's such a hassle now. If you're making any kind of a movie that isn't going to be played in QT or a computer where you can easily click on the play head - one would want chapter markers to skip ahead or move to a different section of your demo reel or whatever.
    Unbelievable...

    I disagree, it is not unfair to evaluate iMovie '08 as done here by previous posters:
    iLife '08 is sold as an upgrade to '06, so as a customer, I believe to rightfully expect an upgrade and not a downgrade in many features.
    I do agree though, that iMovie '08 does include a lot of easy to use features and is perfect for beginners or users who just want to put their files into a sharable environment, with little effort to make things look good.
    BUT: If you did any serious videoediting with iMovie '06, then this program is defnitely a downgrade in terms of options and control. As said, many of the sharing options are easier in '08 but even though a little more complex, managable in '06. Possibly I may also be untypical for not using YouTube as a preferred platform for sharing. Websharing on my personal site and DVDs both have the same priority. And I find better options for my purposes in '06.
    I've used '06 for documentation projects up to 4 hours in length. These are too cumbersome in '08, chapter markers being one important factor to me, besides integration with iDVD.
    I find the concept of '08 ok for smaller or less demanding projects, so I gave it a try. I was not happy with the result. Though this was before the last major update and I have not again used the program since.
    My personal consequence: I will keep an eye on how Apple decides to go on with their consumer movie software. Started switching to Final Cut Express, for now mainly using iMovie '06 and Norrkross Movie. The latter two being my preferred combination on my PB G4.
    In my personal opinion: Apple hast taken away a lot of the flexibility the old version offered. I think it would be a better step for many, to step up to Final Cut Express or other.

  • Import iMovie '08 project (movie) into iMovie '06 (to make chapter markers)

    I would like to make custom chapter markers in my iMovie '08 movie so that a scene selection menu is automatically created when I import the movie into iDVD. I understand that I can create such chapter markers in iMovie '06, which I have downloaded.
    I am unable to import the iMovie '08 movie (project), into iMovie '06, however.
    It looks like I can import iMovie '08 Events into iMovie '06, and make a new movie out of them. However, I don't really want to re-create the whole movie all over again, as it was a lot of work.
    Is there some way I can get my iMovie '08 project imported into iMovie '06? Or do I have to make these custom chapter markers in GarageBand, as suggested elsewhere?
    I have looked at this discussion - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8592766&#8592766 - and other ones, but can't seem to find an answer to this. It looks like others have tried to do this, but it doesn't say exactly how.
    Thanks.
    Barb

    I ended importing my movie from iMovie into Garageband, and, with a bit of a learning curve (figuring out how to get the time instead of the beats to show in the LCD, for example), making my chapter markers and titles there. I then sent the movie to iDVD of course, and it seems to work just fine.
    So I didn't end up copying the buttons, as you suggested, but thanks very much for that suggestion. Once I figured out the Garageband controls, it was easier than I thought it would be. I guess I should have tried Garageband first; it seemed like such an unlikely solution, what with being a music composition program and all.
    Thanks John.

  • How do I add chapter markers in iMovie 11?

    On the previous version of iMovie I used chapter markers frequently, but cannot find them on iMovie 11.  Do they exist?  And if so, how can I access that feature?

    iMovie version 10 (newest version) doesn't have a chapter marker feature.
    iMovie version 9 is still installed and is in your Applications folder.

  • Is there a way or a plugin to add "capture time" as file name

    I just photographed a surf contest out in California - I would like to add the capture time as the file name to make it easier to identify the surfers.  Any easy ways to do this for 600 images?

    Sure, just rename the photos.
    In the library module select all photos you want renamed, go to Library > Rename Photos... (or just press F2)
    In the dialog box that appears select Edit... (the bottom option)
    and in the edit box of the next dialog paste this:
    {Date(YYYYMMDD)»}{Hour»}{Minute»}{Second»}
    If you have more than one photo in a given second, LR will append -n (where n is 1, 2, 3...) to the filename.

  • Is there any way to stop those annoying adds from popping up?

    Seems like this site has just started putting ads at the top of pages. Or is that being done by some rouge program that has attached itself to my Chrome browser? If it's the site that's doing it, please STOP IT, or at least let me know how I can do that

    These dam things are sometime difficult to remove, they install them self in the registry as start-up and keep coming back each time you restart your computer(even if you disable the add-on in your browser.)
    If it is the case, 
       Windows 7 and before
          from the Start menu, select Run ... type "msconfig" ... in the windows that pops, select the "Startup" tab ... Uncheck the check box that correspond to the Add program (Not always obvious to find :(
       Windows 8 you need to do it from the Task manager ... it is even harder to find
    If you are not sure about what to uncheck, contact somebody that can help you, you cant just disable everything, some things in there are essential for your computer
