Macbook 10.5.8 record video and sound, i movie only seems to be able to import video

I need to pracitse a speech and wish to video and record myself on my macbook, previous posts point me to i movie but on my version it only seems to offer to import video and not record it.  Can this be done and how.  I do no need professional quality it is own for own viewing then deletion.  Thanks (PS am a bit computer illiterate so please use laymans terms!)

Mac OS X will install in whatever language you wish, and will offer you the option when you first boot from the installer disk. Other than perhaps labeling there won't be any difference in the disks.
Regards.

  • How can I import video and sound from my sony camcorder?

    I have just bought the mac.  I'm struggling to import video AND sound from my Sony DCR-SR87 hard disk handycam camcorder.  From what I've read already, I ended up purchasing and downloading Quicktime MPEG2, and used the Utility MPEG Component Lion from downloaded MPEG Streaming 1.9.3b6 to enable video and sound to play on the computer directly from the camcorder.  The problem is that when I import these clips using iphoto (it pops up when I connect the camcorder), the sound does not accompany the video onto the computer.  I've hit something of a brick wall and would really appreciate any help.

    OK, according to
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3290
    your camera is supported by iMovie 9.  Perhaps the question is better asked in the iMovie forum.  Would you like me to ask a moderator to move the thread?

  • If more than 12 tabs with youtube, video and sound start corrupted

    If i open more than 12 tabs with youtube videos and let then open, on every new tab video and sound corrupted.
    I'm using Firefox 9 x64 nightly and Flash 11 beta2 x64.

    Hi,
    What operating system are you on?
    Does this only happen with the nightly or can you reproduce this on other browsers as well?
    Are videos playing on the other tabs?
    To confirm what you are seeing:
    12 youtube pages are open by the time you get to 12 or 13 the video and audio are corrupted?
    Thanks

  • Rented Movie Video and Sound out of sync

    I love renting movies from ITunes , but there is this ongoing issue with video and sound syncronisation. I have Window 7 64bit with i7 processor and the latest version of Itunes. I have gone through the settings of altering the sound properties on Quicktime player and Windows to 16bit 44khz which had improved it alot.
    But when watching a film half way through the sound appears to overtake the video. Would this be a setting on the latency currently set to 33.000ms and should increasing this cure the problem?
    I'll try altering the settings on one more film , if that doesn't work then ITunes for me is history.

    Does it behave the same way when you watch the video on your computer? What you observed is not that uncommon since some formats/recorders tend to loose sync between the video and audio.

  • Lost 200+ pictures and many videos and sound clips

    So, I wanted to update the iOS to iOS5, but something went wrong. It backed up (so I wasn't too worried), but it didn't restore properly. Error "-1". A pretty much unknown error. I tried again 2 day's later, and it worked like a charm.
    BUT, in the 2 days, I went to a championship DTM race, about 600km (370 miles) away, shot over 200 pictures and many many videos and sound clips. We even stopped at the Nürenburgring Nordschleife before the DTM on the way and took the car to the track a few times. Awesome.
    After the restore, I had all my previous stuff back, but lost all of the Nürenburgring Nordschleife and DTM pictures... Is there any way to get those back? iTunes restored my iPhone without asking me! So I lost everything as soon as I started up iTunes...

    I lost all of my pictures and videos on my HTC rezound except for about 30 pictures out 700+. I did not delete them and according to my phone it wont even let me erase my SD card which everything was on. Why would my phone only erase my pictures and videos? Is there any way I can retrieve them? I had the back up plus but even it only has my pictures that I have taken since then and the 30 random pictures that it didn't delete. I noticed they were all gone after an update had occurred. Any help would greatly appreciated.
    Have you taken the SD card out and put it into a computer or something to see if they are there or not? That would be my first thing to try.

  • Lost video and sound

    Was happily making a movie. I reviewed it and got a screen which was all pixelated. Made the mistake of saving at that point. Now, although my movie looks fine in the time line, when reviewing my movie, I get sound at the start, but no video. Sometimes I get no sound as well.
    What happened? It looks ok in the time line, but even when I select a clip, I get to video in the video window.
    Help!

    OK, here's some more info on my iMovie dilemma.
    When I preview my movie, I see no video, and only some of the sound clips/music work. I cannot trace it to a single sound track, however.
    I tried to send the movie to my camera, and it worked perfectly (video and sound in the camera and video on the computer), until it reached a certain clip (actually a photo with the KB effect).
    When I dig up the media file for that clip, it plays perfectly in QT. in iMovie, however, (during the camera export) all I get are pixels and basically the movie quits there. Although it moves across the timeline, nothing shows in the viewer and I get a blue screen on my camera.
    After that, when I previewed the movie, I got nothing; just a bar moving across the timeline. Restart iMovie, and I get the same result I started this post with.
    When I began the import to the camera, I got a notice about some clips needing to be rendered. Out of fear of messing things up more, I chose proceed only, vs render and proceed. Would choosing render and proceed fix it, I wonder . . .

  • After years of owning all things Mac, I am finally trying to use iChat, and can't get it to work. I see my buddy, but all I can do is send a message--the video and audio chat icons are gray, as is inviting to a video chat under Buddies.

    After years of owning all things Mac, I am finally trying to use iChat, and can't get it to work. I am using gmail, and I see my buddy (no camera icon next to her name), but all I can do is send a message--the video and audio chat icons are gray, as is inviting to a video chat under Buddies. My buddy has the same problem as I.  We are able to do video chat through gmail, but I had hoped to use iChat.  I am using OS 10.6.8, iChat v. 5.0.3.  What am I missing?

    HI,
    iChat will Video chat to another iChat in a Jabber Buddy List (Google run a Jabber server for GoogleTalk)
    However it will not Video to the Web Page login to iGoogle or the Web Mail Page login.  (where people can Google Chat as it were in a  Web Browser).
    Nor does it video to the Google Talk Stand alone app for PCs or any other Jabber apps on any platform.
    iChat uses a connection Process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) which is also used by other VoIP devices.
    Jabber/XMPP invited the Jingle Protocol for Jabber Applications.
    Google have included this in their Standalone app and the Plug-in for Web Browsers on both PCs and Mac (you can get this as a Standalone Plug-in or as part of Chrome)
    More on this here  This article has been changed several time in the recent months.  It now claims a greater involvement by Google in writing the Jingle Library (Although now Google's version does not work with the others)
    This tends to mean that using the web Login to Google to Chat also cannot video chat to other Jabber apps that are using Jingle.
    If your Buddy is using iChat then check the Video Menu has two items to Enable Camera/Video chat and Microphone/Audio chats are ticked.
    In the View Menu the Show Status Items should be ticked (Selecting them toggles the tick and the function On or Off)
    It could be Internet speed but at this stage I would doubt this at this stage.

  • ITunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from an external drive (or streamed from other wireless devices). Any solution in sight?

    Video streaming of DRM movies, purchased from iTunes and other vendors, to any iOS device is not working.

    I am not sure if you really understand the issue at hand. Possibly that you are just scanning, not reading the whole text, or simply that you just want to close a thread with your last words or derail it for whatever strange reason. So far you have been more destructive than helpful, but again this could be ignorance at best.
    If you would have had the decency to read the entire thread you would have come to the conclusion that every manufacturer, I came across, has posted FAQ's to this issue but Apple. Find a short excerpt below:
    SeaGate  http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/006135en?language=en_US <http://knowledge.seagate.com/articles/en_US/FAQ/006135en?language=en_US> Playing DRM (Digital Rights Management) protected movies in Seagate Media App Information regarding remote streaming of DRM protected movies. Most forms of DRM (Digital Rights Management) will prevent playing movies on unauthorized devices or from remote storage hosted on wireless drives or NAS drives(Seagate Wireless, Seagate Wireless Plus, Seagate Central or Seagate Personal Cloud). Movies purchased from iTunes can be streamed to iOS 6 and iOS 7 devices which were authorized from remote storage (the video could be selected in Seagate Media App and would be played in a Safari browser), however in iOS 8 this has stopped working. A bug has been filed with Apple, however this functionality has not been restored. Therefore, DRM protected movies purchased on iTunes can no longer be played on devices running iOS 8.

The DRM protected content is opened in Safari where the DRM is decrypted and the video is played. iOS 8 issue In iOS 8 Apple device has NOT enabled Safari based DRM decryption. Therefore DRM protected content, i.e. purchased movies or TV shows from iTunes, CANNOT be streamed from the Media Drive/WFD in iOS 8. This issue has been reported to Apple. We do not have any estimated date when Safari will support DRM decryption of iTunes purchased content.

Here are the remaining issues that we are aware of in the iOS 8 general release: • Video streaming of DRM movies (purchased from iTunes and other vendors): iTunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from AirStash (or streamed from other wireless devices). These movies are digitally protected and the AirStash app sends them to the Safari browser to play (which works for all prior iOS versions). However, in iOS 8, Safari will no longer allow DRM movies to play. These movies will play when the video is transferred to the iPhone/iPad and played in the Apple's Video App or the corresponding App from the vendor.

If this is the case and Apple will not address this issue or fix it since Apple believes that movies should be protected this way, you need to let the community know that movies are restricted this way.

It appears that Apple finally fixed an issue they had with their movie DRMs. The files should have never played in the first place.
