Panasonic PVGS500 cannot be read by iMovie

I am using Firewire to communicate with my G5. System profiler sees the connection but imovie comes up with "error communicating with camera" Panasonic says its Apple. SOmeone please help

No I didn't know it was user to user..I was hoping for an Apple tech rep. sorry if I seemed rude but I've not been given accurate info...lets try again. The camera works flawlessly, so does my Power Mac with the OS 10.4. The cable is brand new. It is a 4-6 pin firewire cable. The system profiler accuratly reads the camera in the firewire ID section of the profiler. That means the cable is good, the firewire ports are good on both the camera and the cumputer. The imovie software was deleated only from the applications folder. In the days of OS 9 I would have also deleated the preferences and the extensions but of course now in OS X I do not play around with the System folder unless a tech rep with "the knowledge" walks me through it. Anyway, I re-installed imovie from the disks, still will not recognize the camera. Actually it recognizes it to the point of saying that there is an error.I suspect the srror is the camera allowing itself to be 'talked to' by imovie. The question is whether or not imovie is talking correctly or not, or whether the camera is capable of listening.

Using OS X 10.8.4. Installed iLife 11 to get iDVD. iMovie ready to burn through iDVD. Attempted burn. iDVD says burn is complete. Burn lines are on DVD R. Same disk cannot be read and is considered blank by computer and DVD player. How do I burn properly?

Hello TchrDi,
I suggest this article named Archived - iDVD: Troubleshooting issues with burning discs found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1583.
It is pretty lengthy, but also pretty thorough.

I cannot update IPhoto or IMovie. I have the latest OS. I cannot use these Apps either- they both ask me to update to the newest version, but when I try to I get an error message saying that the App store could not complete my request and to please try again later (null). Any ideas??

I cannot install updates for iMovie, or iPhoto.

I cannot install updates for iMovie, or iPhoto. It keeps telling me "You have updates for available for other accounts. To update this application sign into the account you used to purchase it." The thing is, I am logged into the only Apple ID account that I have.
What do I need to do to fix this?
I have a MacBook Pro, with a Retina Display.

No I did not. These apps came with the MacBook Pro I recently purchased. I merely logged into the AppStore and checked for updates. Updates for iMovie and iPhoto both showed up and I clicked on update all and I got the message "You have updates for available for other accounts. To update this application sign into the account you used to purchase it."

Cannot creat idvd from imovie

pls. assist cannot create idvd from imovie project as it hangs the application on the point of renderring audio files...
what is whrong had been done whithin imovie project then?

My personal worst was a 1 hr 50 min video with 14 imported music clips. Took 42 hours to render, but it got there in the end!
Oh, then 24 hours isn't so bad :-|
What kind of audio files did you use then? I guess it shouldn't make a difference because iMovie converts them to AIF. What sample rate did they use -- 44.1 or 48 kHz? iMovie should convert them to 48 kHz but I haven't checked how well iMovie behaves with imported audio.
Maybe iDVD chokes with overlapping audio clips or when resampling them??
I hope the quality testing of iLife 07 is any better. iMovie 2.1.2 is the last well behaving version!

I have the following error The file "iTunes library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes

Can anyone help me with this problem. I tried updating the latest itunes and it caused an error MSVCR80.dll missing. I then tried fixing it after reading other people had the same problem and a solution was given about uninstaling itunes and the order in which to do that. I did that but now get the error "the files "itunes library.itl" cannot be read because it was created with a newer version of itunes. I see a solution has been given about this but I cannot find what is suggested to enable me to follow instructions. Can anyone please go through step by step (letting me know where I can find what is needed) to enable me to be able tio log into itues again. Thanks

Hi pussygalore,
If you are having issues with iTunes after an attempted update, you may find the following article helpful:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
You may want to make sure that in the last step (reinstalling iTunes) that you are installing the latest/newest available version, and not attempting a reinstall from an older file.

TS3212 I just installed iTunes (from the apple site) on to my new laptop. When I click on the icon to open I get a pop up that says "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". Now what do I do and ho

I just installed iTunes on my new laptop. When I click on the desktop icon I receive a pop up that says "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". I have no idea what this means or what to do about it. I can't even find a file on my computer like the one referred to in the pop up. I am currently considering keeping my old laptop if it is the only way for me to continue to access iTunes. What should I do to fix this?

What version of iTunes are you using? An .itl file is something that Windows uses, or very old versions of iTunes on Mac. The library file on Macs is now .xml and has been since late iTunes 4.
Is iTunes running ok without any problems after you OK that message? If it is, then you may be able to ignore it if you can't account for why you're getting it. But make sure you take backups in case something happens in the future.

Disk cannot be read from or written to

When transferring files from a Windows XP Pro system to an iPod Nano, I will get an error the gist of which is "Disk cannot be read from or written to". The error is repeatable and only occurs on certain files. The nano is connected via a USB 1.1 port through a hub. (The machine has no USB 2.0 ports.) You can load other files with no problem both before and after the error appears; but not on the file which caused the problem.
The problem smells like a firmware bug.
(Note: I tried all of the standard resets and other workarounds - updater, etc. None of that works.)
iPod Nano Windows XP Pro

I have been getting the same error as well. The only thing I can figure out is to restore your ipod with an older version of the updater. I fortunately had an older version on my laptop, restored it to factory default, put it back on my pc where I originally had it, opened up itunes 5.0.1 (it wanted to update it to the newer version I had on my pc but I told it no) and I have been able to save songs. I tried the advice of others to reformat my ipod with the computer management and that didn't work either. I uninstalled, reinstalled, uninstalled, reinstalled, yada yada which did nothing. The only thing I have been successful with is using an older version of the updater. I can't figure out why the newer version won't work but every time I update, I get errors like you are having. I can save files to the ipod as well as songs with the older version. I can drag and drop files to the ipod using my computer as well. Can't do that when I update to a newer version of the ipod updater. Hope this helps and if anyone has any other insight into my problem, it would be greatly appreciated.

The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes".
Try the following user tip:
Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash

My Itunes wont open - reading error "cannot be read because it was created by a newer verdion of itunes"

My Itunes wont open - reading error "cannot be read because it was created by a newer verdion of itunes"
should i uninstall/ reinstal.
will i loose all my music nd playlists?

This technique should work...
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
