New settings pop up question when I quit Imoive

When I quit imovie a pop up box comes up saying that "new settings have been created for this application." And it asks me if I want to use these settings or the or oritinal ones. I have opted for original not knowing what new settings would do. But interestingly have had some problems since then.
What does new settings mean? Why did it suddently pop up?
I hope someone has the answer. Marilyn

That happened to me the other day too, Marilyn, but in an application other than iMovie.
My guess is Mac OS X (or new versions of Mac applications) has a new function that notices when a preference file is corrupt, then offers to replace it with a new one. (Preference file corruption is quite common and can lead to all sorts of problems.)
After that happens you should probably quit iMovie, re-launch it, then check that your preference settings are still what you want.
I'm just guessing, as you can tell.

I am new to ITunes. My question is when I donload and purchase a song to my computer...how many devices can I download that song to ie: IPhone,Nano, IPad.

There is no limit to the number of iOS devices you can sync content to.
The only limitation is that you can only store and play those songs on up to 5 computers at a time.

New to iMovie 11 questions (I'm quite handy with iMovie HD, 6.0.4)

Hi,
I'm trying to use iMovie 11 (9.0.4) after being so used to iMovie HD (6.0.4). Worked on a project yesterday which didn't work out well. All I want to do with it is to split it into segments, no need to cut anything out, export them so they look good and aren't too big file-size wise and then I'll upload them to YouTube. (I might want to raise the audio level of two of the segments, or parts of them, all from one clip but I'll worry about that later.) Here's what happened.
My source footage was two .mov files, 1.7 gb and 1.12 gb, ~26 minutes of footage. They are H.264, 1920x1080 (29.97 fps). I imported them into iMovie 11, chosing to optimize at Full original size.
I split the first clip and exported the first part of that one using the Quicktime option default settings. (H.264, high quality, key frame 24, multi-pass encoding, 960x540 were the current dimensions (I have my monitor set to 1024x768 stretched.) Prepared for internet streaming - fast start.)
The clip was surrounded in yellow (but this all happened yesterday so I can't confirm.)
My finished clip turned out to be ALL of the footage, 26:07 worth, 1.38 gb, The info window on QT says it is H.264, 960x540, 29.97...
What happened?
1) Why did the entire project get exported when only one section of one clip was selected?
2) Is the exported clip 960x540 because my monitor is set to 1024x768? Why wouldn't it be 1920x1080?
I think my original footage is 1080i. iMovie 11 only does 1080p, doesn't it? Is that an issue?
Additionally, it took a LONG time to import the two clips into iMovie 11, 20 minutes or so. It also took 2 HOURS to export. (I now know why the export took so long as it exported the whole movie.) With iMovie HD you could get around long import times by opening the project package and drag and drop the files into the Media folder. Then, when you start up iMovie again, it tells you you've got some things in the trash. You take them out and put them into the clips pane. That saves so much time and clips are ready to be used right then and there. Is there a similar process for iMovie 11?
I also tried editing the original footage in iMovie HD (6.0.4). I exported using the the QT - For CD ROM version. I ended up with ~30 mb files (which is what I am used to for a 6 minute segment.) They are H.264, 320x180 (current size 478x269), 14.98 fps. They are too blurry so I may try again with some different settings. (My exports of SD content using the CD Rom export version have been fine for my purposes, uploading to YouTube and not ending up with large file sizes.) They were brought into iMovie HD as a HD 1080i project. (iMovie HD does 1080i and iMovie 11 does 1080p? and neither does the other?)
Many thanks.

PS For those who may have noticed my other post about getting an HD camcorder and how to edit with it, that camcorder should arrive today, a Panasonic HCV 100K. This project is from someone else's camcorder but is in HD.

Everything in your project will be exported when you use the share menu.
If you want to export only half, I suggest that you
1) Select the project in the Project Library.
2) Click FILE/DUPLICATE PROJECT
3) Give the duplicate a name, like Project A snippet.
4) Open the duplicate project in the Project editor and delete the segments that you do not need.
5) Then Share.
You mentioned surrounding a portion of the clip you were editing in Yellow. Once you do this, you should right-click and then select either DELETE SELECTION, TRIM TO SELECTION, or one of the other options available. That is a key tool in editing.
You mentioned MPEG Streamclip. I agree that MPEG Streamclip is a great tool.

Look for the following:
-on NetConnection's NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS listener:
"NetConnection.Connect.Success" - only create the netgroup after this
-on NetGroup's NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS listener:
"NetGroup.Connect.Failed" - something bad must have happened, never had this over an open NetConnection
"NetGroup.Connect.Rejected" - "Deny" was clicked, now or earlier with "Remember" checked

I am being prompted to enter security questions when making a purchase on my new IPad. I don't believe I have ever setup security questions on my apple id. I have tried logging into my apple id and have chosen the security and priviacy settings to set up security questions. However I am prompted to enter answers to security questions and am told they don't match. How to I create new security questions or reset them?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

You should have asked this before you tried: Changing username or short name- User Account and Short Name- OS X- How to change user account name or home directory name.

For some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store.

for some reason , when i restore my iphone 4s to factory settings my headphones work when listening to music or youtube videos but when i backup my information onto it , it only comes out of one ear bud and i just got a new one from the apple store. my old iphone 4s audio jack was messed up but i just got a new one with my warranty , can anyone help me please.

It doesn't matter what it is in your backup that's causing the problem because you can not selectively restore things from your backup. It's all or nothing.
Set you phone up as a new device and start over.

Hello, I have a question regarding the sharing/exporting on imovie. Whenever I click the share button all the normal options pop up, but when I actually click where I want to share it to nothing happens. If you know what's wrong please let me know.

Hello, I have a question regarding the sharing on iMovie. I have just recently purchased an Elgato Gaming Capture HD and I then finished my recording with that and put it into imovie. I worked long and hard on the project and when I go click the share feature on iMovie all the noral options pop up and when I actually click where I want to share it to nothing at all happens. If you know what is wrong/ what I am doing wrong please let me know.
Thank you.

Just downloaded Firefox 6.0 and have restarted 4 plus times, but it continues to hang while launching. I cannot open new windows, change any settings, or do anything but Force Quit. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8. How do I get past this hang?

Long story short: Simply get CC for teams. At 500 bucks a year it's a steal and those 5 licenses in the base package (or was it 10 even?) cover all your computers, at least the 3 ones you mentioned. For system requirements refer to the individual product pages.

It's a security feature that was brought in a few months ago - when you try to purchase something for the first time on a new computer or device then you will be asked for the answers to your questions (or to set them up if you haven't yet created them).

May be slightly simple question from a new Mac user: Why can't I quit safari? I cannot quit it from top menu bar neither to do it from dock? All other apps are working normally.

Or you can actived the right button on your magic mouse and click on they icon in the dock. then you select "stop" and it's out of your dock.

When i get a call on facetime in my mac when i recieve it an box will pop up and say facetime quit unexpectedly

when i get a call on facetime in my mac when i recieve it an box will pop up and say facetime quit unexpectedly

I just want to add to this, in case someone else searches for this error on Apple Support (google doesnt cover apple support.. how clever is that?)
I had the same error. And i had a Computer that had worked, with a SSD drive and 16GB upgrade done by the owner himself.
I tried swapping with a Mechinal Harddrive, no luck.
Kept the Mechanical drive in, and tried with some other Ram, it worked..
So for me this error and after reading the other responses can be boiled down to a Harddrive problem or Ram issue.
It was Ram for me..
