No Audio when converting a movie from iphoto into iweb.

Hi there,
I have a Sony Camera W17 which takes stills and short movies. I often grab little bit so film of the kids.
Today it was my daugthers birthday so I am in a hurry to get stuff up on my web page as we have moved to the opposite side of the world to our family.
So heres the problem. When I import the stills and movie I use iphoto and I can see all in there (although the duplicate option is crap for movies).
Now if I import them from the camera into imovie or copy across from iphoto I lose my sound. I really want to use the compressing function in imovie so I can add to my web page via iweb. The problem is that I lose the sound so I resort to copying the file in iphoto and taking it straight to iweb. These files are too large for most people to view.
Has anyone gots any tips as to how I get around this? What is causing the sound to get lost yet I can hear it in iphoto. I read somewhere that says its to do with the file type but I am not sure.
Thanks for your help.
Poppetbed.

Are you losing the sound on the movies or the stills?

What version of iMovie?
What camera?

How do I change the image title when it is uploaded from iphoto to iweb. At the moment the image title is /shapeimage_1.png and I would like to put in something more relevant than just shapeimage?

How do I change the image title when it is uploaded from iphoto to iweb. At the moment the image title is /shapeimage_2.png and I would like to put in something more relevant than just shapeimage_2?

When you drag images from iPhoto to iWeb, iWeb retains the original filename.
When you use a mask, iWeb creates a png file with the shapeimage name.
So do not use a mask and crop your images before dropping them on the iWeb canvas.
When you use an irregularly shaped mask, then png files are created. They have to be png because of the transparency of the shape.
You can use a 3rd party application to create the png images yourself, and give them a proper name.
Or use the published png files, rename them and drop them back onto the iWeb canvas, while first removing the previous images.

When I import photos from iPhoto into iMovie, it becomes blurry, why????

I have 10.0.4 version of iMovie. I have made movies before & have never had this problem. The pictures are clear in iPhoto. I have tried making it a "still" photo instead of using the Ken Burns effect...still blurry. Please help!!! This is a video for my nephew's wedding so I need it fixed!

My solution was rather easy-too easy. A "duh" moment...... All I had to do to be able to put photos on my iMovie was to create a new iMovie project-I thought that one that was there when I opened iMovie for the first time was a 'project' but apparently not. Once I went to File--->New Project and then found the iPhoto library where the pictures were that I wanted in the project, I could now drag those pictures into the top left corner. Like I said, it was a "duh" moment for me and I hope this helps you out! It was so simple but not obvious at first. Let me know if it works for you or not. Judy

HT204291 Does anyone know why when streaming a movie from my iMac the screen on my tele goes grey but I still get audio. It only happens when using the DVD application on the mac. iPhoto streams fine.

You are prevented from Airplay mirroring certain things like DVD content as the material is usually protected so you get a checkerboard type display. I think there is a theoretical risk that the Airplay stream could be intercepted and the protected video copied, albeitin lower quality.
Apple may be being cautious or are required to do so with the DVD player app by movie studios/licensing authorities. It makes no sense to the average consumer who is just trying to send their purchased DVD to the TV via the computer and AppleTV.
Playback in something like VLC should work - not tried it myself but others have commented it doesn't have the restriction.

When i import movies from my iPhoto app to my iMovie app does it make a copy (thereby using double the hard disk space) or does it link to my iPhoto app? The reason i ask is i want to archive all my videos from iPhoto/iMovie. HELP!

Hi - I'm having the same problem with freeing up space on the HD. If I can't free space if I'm using any part of the clip, how can I split up the clips so that I can discard the part I won't use? This is crazy! I have only 4 GB of free space left!
Also, I've tried to transfer the project file to my external HD but I keep getting an error saying I can't transfer it. I've been told this is because I don't have enough space on the HD for the transfer. I tried a similar transfer with another computer with plenty of HD space but the same error occurred. Is there a way to break up the project file into small pieces for the transfer (I'm thinking the whole movie file is just too big)?
Thanks for any info!

Why does aperture convert my raw files to jpegs when I import them from iPhoto?

Why does aperture convert my raw files to jpegs when I import them from iPhoto?

It doesn't.
When you import Raw to iPhoto the app makes a jpeg preview of the Raw automatically. When you import from iPhoto then Aperture brings over both versions.

Move from iPhoto '11 to Lightroom using PS Elements to keep Events and Albums

I am trying to move from iPhoto '11 to Lightroom by using PS Elements as a go-between to keep events and album but it doesn't appear that the option to keep events and albums is possible using iPhoto '11. However, the instructions for coming from iPhoto '09 show that option. Is there any way to do this?

I’m not sure about that routine. I’m not even sure events are transferrable and there of lots of things that could go wrong. You may want to think about importing your masters directly into Ligtroom. From finder you need to be in Pictures (not the application) and control-click on iPhoto Library.
iPhoto will have created duplicates and hidden your originals. You need to find your masters from the iPhoto Library - Right-Click and select “Show Package Contents”
Older versions of iPhoto uses an Originals folder and in later versions; Masters. It’s not a good idea to go messing with the structure as it could corrupt the iPhoto Library. Apple has made this structure for good reason; so that you can always use the revert command to go back to an original, even if you have edited in iPhoto using cropping or red eye removal, for example.
However, if you have no further use for iPhoto, you could consider moving your originals/masters to a new folder structure (iPhoto automatically creates dated sub-folders) and then importing to Lightroom. Alternatively if you still need iPhoto, export duplicates to the desktop and bring those into Lightroom. That will keep iPhoto safe.
I do actually use iPhoto for creating events which can then be used to make cool slideshows within iPhoto. However Lightroom is my main management and photo editing tool and I have created an export pre-set for sending jpegs into iPhoto. I have even dragged the iPhoto Library off the hard drive to an external hard drive – but that means keeping it connected when using iPhoto.
This link has further information on folder locations for iPhoto:

Importing movie from iphoto

I am trying to import a movie clip I made on my iphone from iphoto into iMovie. When I drag the movie file from iphoto to the into the new project window, the program does not allow me to complete this action.
Any Help?

Hey CD Hattam,
The following may answer your question:
iMovie '11: Use video from your iPhoto library
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2196
If you’ve imported video from your digital camera into iPhoto, it appears automatically in your iMovie Event Library (as long as the video is in a compatible format).
To use iPhoto video in iMovie:
- Click iPhoto Videos in the Event Library.
- The videos appear in the Event browser on the right. You can select and use the video just as you would any other footage.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Best way to Remove movies from iphoto to freeup space ?

I would like to remove all the movies from iphoto and place them in a folder for later processing in imovie ...i would like to free up all the space
any suggestions

Really easy:
Find all the movies in your iPhoto Library. Then Export them to a Folder. Then delete them from iPhoto.
What makes this easy is that every movie is automatically keyworded when you import it.
So to find all the Movies:
File -> New Smart Album
Keyword -> is -> Movie
Now that you've found them. Select All and
File -> Export *_Kind: Original_* (Note: setting the Kind: to Original is vital)
And export them.
Then trash them from iPhoto.

I exported 10G of movies from Iphoto but did not get new room on my hard drive. Why?

My hard drive is almost full so I exported about 10GB of movies from IPhoto to an external drive. Then I placed them in Trash. However, there was no increase on the hard drive available space after I placed those files in trash. Also, there was no trash in the trash bin. So it appears as if the files are not really being deleted. (They have disappeared from the iphoto events folder.) I also have the same movie clips in IMovie which I did not manipulate. Prior to this event I was trying to delete files from a thumb drive and also had the files disappear but there was no change in available space on that thumb drive. In that case I did the deletion on a PC and when placed back on the Mac computer the deleted space became available.
Why are file deletions not being processed to add space to the hard drive?

I can't help with iPhoto specifically since I don't use it, but just out of curiosity: did/do you empty the trash? Space is not regained until after the trash is actually emptied.
Also, when you export or drag/copy files, normally the files are copied to the new location and the originals still exist. As for space on your hard drive: you need to maintain an absolute minimum of 10 - 15 GB; more is better. If you edit/render/burn video, you need to have at least as much free space on your hard drive as the size of the files in your project if you want the machine to perform satisfactorily.

How do i move movies from iphoto to imovie

How do I move movies from iphoto to imovie. Can I downlod movies from ipod or camera to imovie or does it need to go through iphoto first?

1. Launch iMovie and import the movies from iPhoto
2. No. You can launch iMovie, insert your media and import directly to iMovie. If you do this often you might want to change the default action when a camera is connected in the iPhoto preferences

How to resize and email short movies from iPhoto 08

Hi all,
I've just switched from PC to Mac. With PC i used to use ACDSee as my picture and short movie editor.
Similarly on Mac i have downloaded pictures and short movies to iPhoto. Where with pictures I have no trouble resizing and emailing, I can not resize and email my short movies. I have browsed trough number of forums but can not find anything on resizing and emailing movies from iPhoto.
Trouble if using iMovies is that I have both photos and movies on the camera and when transferring it will take time to sort them.
If someone knows an easy or even hard way around this problem please help.?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
iPhoto will not edit the Movies in any way.
You can easily find all the Movies in your library.
File -> New Smart Album
Keyword -> Is -> movie
as each movie is automatically given a 'movie' keyword on import.
iMovie will them show that Smart Album in it's media browser, so finding them from it is easy.

When streaming a movie from an imac to apple tv, is there a way of putting the imac display off? I find it a waste having the screen on in another room. Any advice?

No problem.
This is a user forum so you are not addressing Apple. There's nothing to fix, that's how home-sharing works. There would be no way for the ATV to recognize your library and display content if the computer is in sleep mode.
You can always airplay from an IOS device or use icloud if you don't wish to keep the computer on.
