Ive been trying to export or share my imovie video and every time the i movie crashes and its just pulls up a report. I need to export this movie now and it is fairly complicated please help me. It even crashes when ever i try to play it on full screen
My i movie keeps on crashing when ever i try to share it or play it in fullscreen . How do i save it and not loose the movie!
Hi
This is bit of a Nightmare situation - and there can be a zillion reasons for why it goes wrong. See if You might find help in my list.
When iMovie doesn't work as intended this can be due to a lot of reasons
• iMovie Pref files got corrupted - trash it/they and iMovie makes new and error free one's
• Creating a new User-Account and log into this - forces iMovie to create all pref. files new and error free
• Event or Project got corrupted - try to make a copy and repair
• a codec is used that doesn't work
• problem in iMovie Cache folder - trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist
• version miss match of QuickTime Player / iMovie / iDVD
• preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences
• other hard disk problem - Repair Hard Disk (Disk Util tool - but start Mac from ext HD or DVD)
• External hard disks - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work with Video
( UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most other things - but not for Video )
• USB-flash-memories do not work
• Net-work connected hard disks - do not work
• iPhoto Library got problems - let iPhoto select another one or repair it. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie.
This You do by
_ close iPhoto
_ on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
_ now select all five options presented
_ WAIT a long long time
• free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk to low (<1Gb) - I never go under 25Gb free space for SD-Video (4-5 times more for HD)
• external devices interferes - turn off Mac - disconnect all of them and - Start up again and re-try
• GarageBand fix - start GB - play a few notes - Close it again and now try iMovie
• Screen must be set to million-colors
• Third-party plug-ins doesn't work OK
• Run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac
• Let Your Mac be turned on during one night. At about midnight there is a set of maintenance programs that runs and tidying up. This might help
• Turn off Your Mac - and disconnect Mains - for about 20-30 minutes - at least this resets the FireWire port.
• In QuickTime - DivX, 3ivx codec, Flip4Mac, Perian etc - might be problematic - temporarily move them out and re-try
(I deleted the file "3ivxVideoCodec.component" located in Mac HD/Library/Quicktime and this resolved my issue.)

I solved the problem by removing the file: 3ivxVideoCodec.component. after that, up-dated iMovie runs ok.
Last resort: Trash all of iMovie and re-install it

Please help...I was downloading my pics from the SD card. I then I highlighted 5 pics and selected erase, once I selected erase 20 other pics was also erase. I need to know how can those erase pics be recovered? Please Help!
You will need data recovery software. See this post:
Re: I accidentally lost 3 weeks of photos, how do I recover them?
And please send feedback to Apple: This is a bug. Only the imported photos should have been deleted, not all photos on the card. You can use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback -
Please Help! For some reason when ever I type in PSE it comes out very faint and almost invisable???
Please Help! For some reason when ever I type in PSE 10 it comes out very faint and almost invisable like. I'm not sure what I did but I cant get it back to the normal black font??? Please help. I know this seems like a very simple and easy question. I could use any advise. I've tried everything.
Further to what dominic said, in PSE 11 and 12, you get to Reset Tool by clicking the four-lined square on the upper right of the Tool Options area. In older versions, click the tiny triangle or tool icon at the far left of the Options Bar.

Take it somewhere that has better broadband. The best you can do sometimes is invest in new modem that works with your system instead of the rental etc in most cases.
Do a Safe Boot.
Make sure your firewall is set properly. Don't use 3rd party. AV software can get in the way.
Make sure you are getting the service and a clean strong modem signal - slow is one thing but if it drops off and can't maintain a connection you have hardware issues, not software - and upgrade to a new OS doesn't tend to improve, it may even not work with older networking equipment once you do get it.
I agree and think electronic only goes too far. And when you do get it: burn the package and manually set it aside first before running the intaller! make a flash memory installer, put it on DVDs too. -
so everytime i try and link my apple id to my macbook (mid 07) it doesnt work and i get the yellow triangle. i recently reset my mac as i forgot my password. in the process i made another user to reset my password. doing this i went through the complete start up of a macbook (from when you buy from new). i dont know if this has anything to do with this problem. but i have now deleted that user.
any help is much appriciated.For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices.
That all works.
It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now. They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
Thanks for listening,

Please Help!!! At wits End!! Flash player problems using full screen mode
Thank you... I have a dual monitor setup with my macbook which is connected to my TV a Insignia NS-LCD47HD-09 model. +When I play flash videos in full screen on my lcd they come in all choppy and unsmooth.+ This problem developed all of a sudden and I have played flash videos on my lcd in the past with no issues, I dont know what changed. I've noticed these flash videos play all smooth on my macbook in fullscreen but not on my lcd. I have tried flash videos form many diffrent sites and have this same problem, also other formats divx for example dont have this problem. A flash video will play all smooth in the regular view and when i make it full screen it gets all choppy without fail on my tv.
I should also say I have the most up-to-date flash player 10, and have tried unistalling it and doing it again, as well as tried putting flash player 9 & 8 on my computer which dont seem to work at all. I have also tried to mess with the displays under system prefrences and am using a 1920X1080 on my lcd with 59.9ghz, none of my other potions seem to make a diffrence.
I have tried everything i can think of and tried to find other fourms for this problem and I just cant figure it out.... Please help, this has been really been bugging me.Hmm, you may be onto something regarding the repair permissions thing. The authorization issue is happening when even putting together a movie that has more than one song from itms (and if you go to trim it, you end up in an endless loop between iMovie and iTunes— FUN!). There's a whole 'nother thread on it here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1079288&tstart=0
I did report it as a bug however. One other person in that thread was able to duplicate the issue at an Apple store on one of their machines. One would assume they go through the steps you do before installing software (assume tht is). -
I'm trying to get a DVD made for my grand daughters to take home tomorrow. Have been trying to get this movie shared to IDVD for several hours. Help!!
Instead of Sharing to iDVD you want to Share to Media Browser. This will save the movie to a special folder inside of iMovie that you can then see from inside the iDVD program.
Choose Share > Media Browser (it's at the top of the list)
Choose the Large size and let it roll. It will take a while for it to work.
When it's finished quit iMovie.
Open iDVD, Create a new project.
Go to the button labeled "Media" in the lower right hand corner of the iDVD window, and click it.
Just above that is a window with some buttons across the top. Click on the button labeled "Movies".
Inside the window you will see an iMovie star icon, double-click the triangle beside it to see all the movies being shared. Your iMovie project will appear there.
Drag the iMovie project into your iDVD project.
The quality of the final DVD is visibly better, sharper than if you were to Share directly to iDVD. So bypass Share to iDVD altogether and see if it stops crashing. -
Why can't I just upgrade?
If you need to purchase Snow Leopard contact Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service. The price is $29.00 plus tax. You will receive physical media - DVD - by mail.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. -
My phone is a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10.
Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly from here:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
(Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.) -
I offiially hate our mac. Would work with a PC in a heartbeat.
Are you referring to the Dock?
If it is the Dock that is bothering you, type: command, option, D (all three keys together). That will bring the Dock on the screen permanently.
I do not know how to remove it permanently. -
I have been trying to share file between my Mac Book Air and PC Laptop.Sometimes my Mac sees the PC and tries to connect but every time the connection fails. It says server may not exisit or network problem. I have apparently no network problem. Thanks for any help you may provide
hi,
somewhere on the windows machineshould be something like "network setup wizard". exactly where it is and what it is called i cannot remember off the top of my head, windows help is actually slightly useful here, it should have a link to it.
all the options checked on the mac are only what services the mac is offering to other machines, they have nothing to do with the services it can access (mostly...).
oh yeah, to actually connect to the pc after you have turned its sharing on, use the finder, or, when it does not show the pc (this happens on and off, possibly a refresh problem apple...) choose go --> connect to server and enter smb://<pc's name or ip>
to find the ip, the easiest way i think is
start --> run --> cmd ->> ipconfig

When trying to download an app, I am being told my Apple ID has been disabled! Why is this happening? How can I fix? Please Help.
We are fellow users, we won't know why it's disabled. You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on your device by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page -
