Lots of my clips, randomly it seems, have no sound

I just got a new video camera and I started using iMovie for my first time with it. It's a Panasonic DVD video camera. The first time I loaded my DVD into my computer with it, it imported all of my clips with sound just fine. Since then, every time I load my DVDs in my computer, at some point in the clips, the sound just stops. I know I recorded the clips with sound because I can hear it from the camera's speaker when I play the clips from my camera itself. However, on my computer, video plays but there is no sound. I have re-uploaded video three times. Each time, there is a different spot in the video where the sound stops. I thought that maybe I had too much going on when I was uploading, so the third time I uploaded video, I turned off all programs. Nothing was open besides iMovie. Still, at some point near the middle of my video, no sound. It seems like iMovie stops importing the sound at some point in the uploading process, and each time at a different spot. How can I get this to stop happening? Any advice would be wonderful.

The audio should still be there. Try opening the clip inspector to the audio tab and set the volume slider to 100%.
Also, make sure you don't have the ducking feature in use. That will cause all other clips to be muted while the ducking is on.

  • Lots of my clips of videos have lost their audio in the event and project.

    I have been making a video using iMovie and when it started everything was fine and as it should be. I have been adding clips to the project and all seemed fine. Some clips get rejected and moved to the trash to clear some space on my hard drive.  I have just played the video back and lots of the clips have no audio over them, even though they did when they were imported.  The clips that have lost the audio aren't ones that have had parts rejected and I have tried all of the help topics that iMovie has to offer.  Can anyone help me work out how I can find these again because these clips are very important. Please help, I'm really not impressed.  Thanks

  • HT4847 I'm new to iPhone and iCloud... I have lots of pics on my iPhone but only some appear on my iPad, they're in Camera Roll on the phone but random ones only have come into Photos on the iPad - can anyone help? Thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)
    Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
    Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
    Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
    Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.

  • I cannot watch any TV shows on Itunes. The episode will play for a few seconds and then freeze and skip forward randomly. I have a Windows 7 PC and I didn't have problems before the Itunes 11 update. Any ideas?

    After updating to ITunes 11 a while back, I am no longer able to watch TV shows on my laptop. If I try to watch an episode, it freezes and then skips forward randomly. I have a Windows 7 laptop and I didn't have any problems before ITunes 11.

    I don't use a graphics card, I use on board graphics as my computer case is too small to fit a graphics card inside.
    There are no effects applied to the clip, only one layer of video and 1 layer of audio (both from the same file). The video is in MP4 format at 720p.
    Before I rendered the sequence, I had a yellow bar above the sequence. Also, I imported the same clip into CC Standard and it played fine (also had a yellow bar) with no lag.
    I think I've fixed the issue now as rendering the sequence made the video play smoothly with no apparent issues.
    If any other clips have lag or any other problems in CC 2014, I'll just import them into CC standard and see if that works.

  • TS2756 How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

  • I cannot find a photo I did a lot of work to create. I have several library files that look similar but I found that at least one photo is not in both. Can I somehow merge these libraries. Can someone tell me how.

    I cannot find a photo I did a lot of work to create. I have several libraries that look similar but I found at least one photo that was in one and not the others. Can someone tell me if I can merge these libraries, and how, and what to watch for that might cause problems.

    the paid version of iPhoto library manager can merge libraries safely
    Why do you have several libraries? Why are you not just using the one that has what you want?

  • I seem have two apple IDs - on for an icloud address and one for everything prior.

    I seem have two apple IDs - one for my new icloud email address and one for ipad/purchases which has been active for 6 months.
    Can I change this to simplify it, or should I follow instructions to ensure everything is matched?

    I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

    1. Why don't you purchase it from Apple? I'd be wary with eBay sellers - and, after all, Apple posts their stuff everywhere, even if you live in a country without a localized Apple store webpage or local (physical) Apple stores.
    2. when it comes to adapters / cables like these, NEVER purchase ANYTHING non-Apple-manufactured! Most of the cheap(er) knock-offs don't work! That is, don't try to save on going for a cheaper alternative - it most likely won't work.

  • Importing a lot of video clips from a Sony camera to FCE; during the Log and Transfer process, is there a way to add multiple clips to the browser instead of one at a time?

    Select one and click cmd-A which selects them all.
    Then click the import button if it hasn't started already.

  • When I play video clips from websites like Prescreen the sound is loud enough to hear w/out headphones.  When I play my own professionally mastered video I have to wear head phones to hear loud enough.  Is there a trick in Compressor or other software?

     The Nokia 3720 classic is a IP54 level water,
    Not even close to good enough, LCD screen will crack, water will go in through the jack/charger ports..
    The phone i describe has no external ports just 4-5 little pins which can't let water in or out of the device, the docking station will connect via these 4 - 5 pins for data transfer and recharging...., IPX8 standard, all the electronics are epxoyed with a glue to stop real bad shocks from drops and bangs, along with a silicon case and all the other preventative meausres means this little phone is going to outlive you.
    in combination with heart rate external bluetooth connection, really what more could you want... only the Sonim comes close in terms of perfection but if it managed to pack all of above, then it would be simply wow... I don't think there's enough people who work for nokia who actually go camping, backpacking, hiking, i'm pretty sure that if i told them one day
    on a holiday you might drop your phone into the swimming pool, ok fine it's a mistake but damn, there goes your $$$$ N7 or N900 or even a HTC or Iphone.... not this, you'd yell to the first person you see in the pool, hey mate can i have my phone back, don't worry about the water damage, i'll get it back on insurance after a small lie stopping the person from running off with it (in fear of the now useless mobile phoned killed by water, making an attempt to steal be useless) 
    The person gets their phone back and carries on about his day, it drops out of your pocket, how many times you ran over it because you happened to leave it behind the back tire. oh no i ran over my phone, the tough casing and the epoxy keeping it nice and safe, except for superficial damage cosmetic, the screen and phone should be working still able to make that call or send out GPS info....
    Sorry nothing comes close by any company (except Sonim) in terms of what they can do... maybe even a portable charger turn it to recharge like on LED dynamos. nah maybe not.

  • Satellite A200 shuts down randomly - I may have a solution

    Hello,
    I am having a Toshiba satellite A200-1sj, but the laptop have issues and it shuts down it self randomly.
    I have changed thermal paste of the CPU and GPU and this is not related to heat because it some times could power off even after first start when the board is cold. I have started the board out of the case, just bare naked with the cooling pipes on it and it would shut again, without its hard, wifi adapter or modem so this is not related to them. I have also tested with another power charger from a friends A200-23k and it still shuts down so its not about it either.
    BUT !!! The big but is what I have discovered and I think toshiba is to blame! This issue is related to the voltage regulator some how and it is not working properly for some add reason. I have also found some kind of solution last night after a bios save and exit the fan stuck at 100% and the machine have not shut down since then and it looks like when the fan is regulated and it rises and lowers the voltages then the problem appears.
    The sad thing is that i left the cpu from bios at low profile so it will run at only 1GHz and I am afraid to change it within bios because i may loose the 100% fan operation and the machine will get unstable again! :(.
    Current bios i have is 2.60 and I am thinking to try 5.30 if the machine starts to shut down again but i think this would be no go because the fan will regulate again ;(.
    Is there someone from Toshiba who can create a bios with a constant voltage for the fan so it wont have up and down times which could be less painful for the regulator i guess and may bring stability at decent noise.
    I am open to any suggestions,
    Best Regards,

    YES I have successfully restored my bios.
    Here is the URL from which you can download the proper boot disc crisis tool: http://www.mediafire.com/?3ccb9m0kv0m
    You first need to make your bootable floppy disk. I have made mine with CRISDISK.BAT from the archive. This is an easy to use bat file and in some cases slight editing may be needed if the usb floppy you are using is recognized as letter B: You just search for "A:" and change the values to B:
    After you have your bootable disk you have to delete the file BIOS.WPH and copy the desired bios for your model on the floppy with the same name(bios.wph).
    Then you need to create autoexec.bat file. - this could be easy, you just create an text file with notepad and rename it autoexec.bat after you have the needed lines in it.
    In my case i used autoexec.bat with the following lines: phlash16.exe /x /s /BBL /MODE=2 bios.WPH
    When I used the bat file with mode=3 which is most common way out on the forums it did not worked but with mode 2 things went faster and smooth. Mode 3 took around 20 minutes in reading the floppy disk with a short pauses looking like flashing block by block but on the end flashing result was = BSOD. So for those who are unable to restore the bios with the guides out there you better flash using mode=2 (preserve dmi) just like I did. Still if mode=2 also is not working you may experiment with the other two options remaining.
    I will explain those modes for you in case you are wondering.
    0 - update the bios and not the dmi
    1 - update the dmi and not the bios
    2 - update the dmi and the bios (preserve dmi)
    3 - update the dmi and the bios (renew dmi)
    The bios mode update information above is information I found on the web in another forum so I can not take credit for it.
    P.S.
    The only thing kept me going when I used older versions of phlash16.exe was that it actually read the disk and it was for more then 5 seconds which mean that the motherboard was searching for the proper image and this can be a successful way to revive your bios.
