Making a dvd, not seeing imovie

So, I had this quicktime movie, I put it on imovie and saved it, now I'm trying to add it to Idvd, but Idvd doensn't see the imovie in the folder that I put it in. I am running imovie 6 HD, not 08

Hi Compsavvy - try dragging the entire iMovie project 'package' (the one with the Star on it), onto the open iDVD window.

    I'm making a DVD with my iMOVIE and when I tried to burn a DVD I got an error message that said
    "ERRORS IN PROJECT
    There were errors during the project validation that have to be fixed before burning the project."
    What does this mean and how do I fix it.

  • Making a DVD with 3 iMovie projects

    I am fairly new at making a DVD. I have iMovie 9.0.4 and am on a Mac OS X version 10.6.8.
    My question is: I would like to make a DVD with 3 chapters.
         Chapter #1 would be an iMovie project (13 minutes)
         Chapter #2 would be an iMovie project ( 8 minutes)
         Chapter #3 would be an iMovie project (14 minutes)
    I have all three of the movie projects completed.
    At this time they are all seperate projects in iMovie.
    They are the only projects that I have in imovie.
    I hope to combine all three projects on one DVD and provide the DVD to classmates for a 50 year reunion.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Good or bad info. To be honest - I never use the SlideShow way - but it's well described in this forum and I tested it to be sure that it works. Problem I came up on was
    • Black framing - One must select to not scale photos in SlideShow
    • Bad sound - as I had to high level it resulted in severe distortion - Lowering it helped
    So the problems can be handled - but in reality I rather do
    • One movie containing all parts and Chapter Marks set to match. This too has a built in problem as one can not set Chapter Marks in transitions or within 2 sec from them (OR IN VERY BEGINNING OF MOVIE). But there is a way around this too.
    • Export the combined movie as Full Quality QuickTime .mov
    • Import this QT.mov and now You can set the Chapter Marks (except at very beginning = no need to do this - iDVD does this by it self)
    And then I add each Chapter as a free movie too
    This works greatly - BUT the Con in this case is that it takes x2 space on DVD. For material less than 60 min this is no problem - but for longer movies one has to be even more elaborate to fix it.
    Good Luck !

  • Can not see iMovie

    I created an iMovie and selected to publish the share of the movie with appleTV (large format).
    I see the movie listed in my finder under iMovie sharing and iTunes, but it will not show up in appleTV and or in iTunes movies.
    What next?

    No luck
    I made a change to the project, republished to iTunes - and iTunes does not see it eveen though I can see it within Finder's iTunes movie folder with my other movies.  Tried exporting it to movies and still iTunes will not see it even though I see it in the folder.

  • How to burn a dvd created in iMovie with OS Maverics - why is it in MP4 format and not .MOV?

    I have created a movie in iMovie, shared it and put it in a burn folder on my desktop, then tried to burn it. It seemed to work (the hard disc was spinning and computer told me when it was finished) but when i tried to play it on my Macbook Pro (which is where I created it) it won't play. It is in MP4 format. iMovie used to create movies in .Mov format. Is this the reason it won't play and what can i do about it?

    Hi
    A. making a .mp4 file then putting it onto a DVD (via Finder/DeskTop) results in a DATA-DVD - which can not be played by any (to my knowledge) Standard DVD-Player.
    But if inserted into a window-PC and using VLC-player - I GUESS that it will play just fine.
    B. To be played in a Standard DVD-Player You need to do a VIDEO-DVD and to do this You need a DVD-Authoring program (it is a MUST)
    C. Things that use to go wrong are:
    - Using cheap brands of DVD discs as Memorex, NoName etc - I only use Verbatim
    - Using DVD+/-RW - usually do not work, DVD+R usually works BUT not on older DVD-players - I only use DVD-R
    - BURN SPEED - as faster as more BURN ERRORS (WORSE) - in iDVD - Best IS NOT BEST AT ALL - I never go faster than x4 - most often I use x2
    Reg Authoring programs:
    If there is no iDVD on Your Mac (and it's not on newer Macs as Apple discarded it) then You need a program that can do this.
    Your Mac can burn CDs and DVDs - BUT DVD as Data-DVDs not as Video-DVDs - they need a program to be encoded and STRUCTURED as such.
    iDVD is part of the boxed version of iLife'11 and can only be bought outside Apple as on Amazon and e-bay
    DVD Studio pro - Part of FinalCut Studio Pro bundle - this to has expired and can only be bought second handed. (High price and tough learning Curve - but best ever done.)
    Roxio Toast™ - Not as elegant as iDVD - but has many other positive additions (I like it as 10-Pro incl BD-component) (now version 11)
    FinalCut Pro-X which also can burn to DVD but without any nice themes.
    AppleMan1958
    You can also buy Compressor from Apple for $50 US. It will also create DVD and BluRay but without the nice themes.
    Free solutions:
    Burn - a free alternative from Internet. Very simple - Just for doing a plain Video-DVD
    Burn http://www.digital-digest.com/software/Burn.html
    Gives a fairly good resulting Video-DVD
    Free DVD Creator.app - free from Apple Store
    (very simple - Quality ?? not sure - looked problematic reg. Interlacing)

  • IMovie "does not see" videos from my Canon Vixia HF M32 and shuts down. Any ideas?

    Lately, I have not been able to download videos as I used to from my Canon Vixia HF M32. My iMovie would not see the camera and would often close unexpectedly. It then gives an incomprehensible error message. I have no idea why this is happening or what to do. I was able to dowload some videos using a pc and a different software. Any clue?
    Thanks

    iMovie HD (version 5 and 6) works only with Firewire cameras, DV or HDV.
    Footage from other types of cameras can be converted for use. Try VoltaicHD and convert to Apple Intermediate Codec (1080i or 720p) for HD footage or DV for SD (Standard Definition) footage.
    If all you want to do is creating a DVD, go for SD footage in the DV format. A DVD is always SD.

  • Making Duplicates from DVD not files saved

    I have been reading a lot of the discussions and I think I am understanding that after making a DVD from iMovie I can delete all files. I am making movies from stills in iPhoto so I keep the original photos. Can I just duplicate at a later time the DVD for more copies? I do not anticipate making any changes.
    I have not deleted anything yet.

    Can I just duplicate at a later time the DVD for more copies? I do not anticipate making any changes.
    If you are simply wanting to be able to make clones in the future then you can copy one of your finished DVDs using Disc Utility, which has full instructions on http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=42724
    Therefore keep at least one master backup copy or use Disc Utility to create the disc image and keep it on a hard disc if you have the space.

  • I-movie does not see i-DVD

    I-movie does not see i-DVD
    I am using a mac mini with system 10.3.7 with 1.47 Ghz Power PC G-4 and 512 MB Ram.
    I was having problems with my I-DVD crashing every time I asked it to burn a DVD or make a disc file.
    Then I reinstalled I-movie 5 and I-DVD 5 but now the imovie does not seem to see the iDVD. It asks for an i-DVD version 4 or higher when I have already installed the version 5. It does not seem to see it.
    I decided to try version 4 but the installation disc that I have for I-life 4 does not allow me to install I-movie and I-DVD from the disc because it says that one of those applications is open. Thus I had to drag the applications from another computer.
    So, I transferred an old version 4 for I-movie and I-DVD from another computer and when I try to make a DVD it comes up with the message that I need an I-DVD version 3 or higher and does not see the version 4 that is there.
    The result is that I can create a DVD from I-movie.
    If I try to create a DVD booting up on my firewire external HD with 10.3.4 and versions 4 of imovie and idvd, I have no problem.
    Ideas?
    Thanks you,

    Hi Robert,
    Mac OS 10.4.2 is now available. Have you considered upgrading your OS?
    Having said that, I will qualify it by also saying that I do not know if that one item will solve your problem but I am wondering if your OS and your applications are now confused?
    Hope this helps.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks my iMac does not see Sony camcorder in iMovie anymore. It still works on MacBook, so nothing wrong with camera or connections.

    After upgrading to Mavericks my iMac does not see my Sony camcorder anymore. I tried the new iMovie as well as the old version 9.0.9, which is still in Applications. I checked the camcorder and connections in iMovie on my MacBook (not upgraded) and that still functions properly, so the problem does not seem to be in iMovie, old or new, or in camcorder and connection.
    Anybody with the same problem or a solution?
    Thanks mbkom

  • Windows 8.1 Setup DVD does not see SSD

    Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 Setup DVD does not see Samsung SSD 840 Pro so cannot install Windows 8.1. The same SSD disk currently does have Windows 8 Enterprise and runs fine on the same laptop. Checked the Dell BIOS does see the SSD. Loaded the
    latest drivers from the Dell website but did not help. Tried changing the BIOS settings from SSD to ACHI. When in setup did the SHIFT+F10 to run the DISKPART clean the partitions.
    How do I troubleshoot why the Windows 8.1 Enterprise setup disc cannot see the SSD?

    Hi,
    According to your description, I would like to confirm if you can see SSD under the Diskpart.
    If you can see the SSD under the Diskpart,I think it is related to the installation DVD.
    I suggest we use a new installation DVD to test it.
    Also, you can create a bootable USB flash drive, and then use the USB flash drive to install Windows.
    Keep post.

  • Bootcamp does not see replacement DVD drive in Mac Pro3,1

    Recently purchased  LG Super-Multi Drive - Mac Pro Kit 24X 5.25" Internal DVD/CD Writer from OWC and installed it in lower DVD drive according to the manuel provided including wire to Sata plug in Mac Pro3,1. A difference is that Top of 2 DVD ports has a faulty drawer door so I have removed the original Apple DVD device from it.
    I now have  DVD access/play  using LG in Mountain Lion with bottom Drive but none at all in Boot Camped Windows 7 or 8 which do not see the SATA drive in lower drawer.
    Wondering if there is any fix for this.

    My Latest email back & forth with OWC:
    My Mac Pro is 3,1 early 2008. My understanding before purchase was that it would work in Mt. Lion and Windows.
    Is there anyone who knows how to make this work?
    This is a very well known issue that was discovered shortly after the 2006 Mac Pro first shipped.
    Sincerely,
    OWC Andy

  • IMovie does not see Aperture / iTunes library after hard drive restore

    Hi all,
    I recently exchanged the 320GB drive in my MacBook for a 500GB drive. I installed the 500GB drive and restored everything from my time machine backup. This went flawlessly and the MacBook works great, except for two issues:
    1st: It did not read NTFS volumes anymore, I had to reinstall NTFS-3G - problem fixed.
    2nd: I do not see my Aperture and iTunes libraries in iMovie '09 anymore. This worked great before.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? Or what the problem could be?
    Many thanks,
    Michael

    read about that problem frequently.. never got an answer, if the following usual advice fixes the problem:
    • check permissions with Disk Utility
    • check read/write rights of specific Folder AND files inside via Finder..
