Project didnt save after quitting - HELP?

hi after creating an imovie 09 project and editting it i quitted imovie09. i thought that this program had an autosave function so i believed that when i clicked projects library my movie would be there and open, but when i opened it , it was empty. what should i do to overcome this problem, and how can i save the imovie to my documents so i can send it to different people?
many thanks
joseph

Bob ,
Assuming you are using imovie 5.x
open the imovie proj.pkg by control click >show contents>shared movie>iDVD>movie file. Play the the .mov file to see if any of your work is still playable. Also back in cache file > timeline .mov. Let us know if this is of some help.

Rules won't save after quit.

I recently did an an archive and install of leopard and ever since, I've been experiencing some strange permissions issues.
The latest is that none of the rules I create in mail are saved after I quit and relaunch. All other preferences, however, are saved without a problem. I've run fix permissions from disk utilities several times but it still hasn't resolved the issue.
Does anybody know where the rules file is located on the HD?
Thanks.

repairing permissions will not help with this because your rules are stored in your home directory and repair permissions doesn't touch it. quit mail and go to the directory homedirectory/library/mail. delete the files MessageRules.plist and
MessageRules.plist.backup. start Mail. your rules list will be empty. see if they save normally now.

HELP! How come I can't 'save and quit' any longer with this new ver of Firefox? Does anyone know how to fix this?

When I updated Firefox I have now discovered I can no longer action the 'save and quit' function when closing down Firefox! Is this a common problem and more to the point is there a solution to this?? ie, change settings or some form of patch??
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this function WAS awesome when needing certain tabs kept open.

Firefox now always stores the old session, and you can access it by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session"
If you want Firefox to display the message to save the session, it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''
If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:
# Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
# Go to the General panel
# Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

Imovie quit and i just lost my project... Please help

I was working on a trailer and imovie quit unexpectantly and when I reloaded my project was gone? Please help!! This has happened before but my project was always visible when i reloaded. I also noticed a different project i was working on is not showing up either.

Same thing happen to me. I went to 'Finder' clicked on the folder called 'Movies' and there should be a folder called 'Imovie Projects' my lost project was in that folder and I just clicked on it and it came back up in Imovie

How do I get my "save and quit" back after updating to the latest version of Firefox on a PC?

How do I get my "save and quit" back I do not like having to close all my tabs and loose all that every time I close out of firefox. When I got the latest version of firefox I lost the ability for firefox to save my tabs when I close out of it. I have to go through the process of opening all my tabs and refinding the sites all over again each time I load up firefox. I can not find the place to change the settings to being back the way they were before firefox got the latest version. I want my "save and quit" back.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. 
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. 
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. 
Another possibility is to use:
* [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences Firefox (Tools) > Options] > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

After switching to version 4 I can no longer save and quit upon exit. How do I get this feture to work in version 4?

I have a Dell laptop running Windows XP version 5.1 service pack 3. I downloaded Firefox version 4 and I no longer get an option to save and quit upon exit. How do I restore this feature?

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''browser.tabs.warnOnClose''', if its value is set to '''false''', double-click on it to change its value to '''true'''
# Repeat this for these 3 preferences '''browser.warnOnQuit''', '''browser.warnOnRestart''' and '''browser.showQuitWarning'''

Premiere Pro crashes after quit - Mac OSX Lion

Greetings,
Symptoms:
I'm experiencing a consistent crash behavior after quiting Premiere Pro (ver 5.5.1 and 5.5.2). The complexity of the project doesn't seem to matter and once it crashes, i get the prompt indicating the app encountered a serious error and will try to save the project. I then get the usual crash report prompt to send to apple followed by the adobe crash report a few minutes later (must be why i see "dynamiclinkmanager" in top for a bit after PP crashes).
If I reopen PP, I'm prompted with a dialog box asking if I want the last project opened. If I say yes, I'm back to a crash before any assets load (unexpected serious error and the app will need to close) followed by the crash reports again for apple and adobe. Basically, i get one chance to make a project and it goes bad when closing the application.
I'm using an install from a DVD, but had also tried the web version. I was able to create a couple projects with the web version (trial) and then when I got the DVD, i believe i used that for updating/authenticating, etc - maybe that's where things went south (anyone else observe a similar pattern?). I didn't think too much of mixing the DVD content with the web install, so the steps around how i mixed those two sources is somewhat fuzzy.
For reference, i'm pasting the crash report inline. To reproduce, I just had to open PP, click no when asked to open the last project that unexpectedly quit, and then just hit quit and got the crash. I didn't do anything other than accept the project defaults in order to test out hitting command-Q.
If I can provide futher info to help with a repro, please let me know.
Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance,
Todd

Regarding en/disabling the mercury engine, is there another place to toggle that? I didn't think i had any other choice at this time with my card option (until i get a nvidia cuda card). FWIW, When creating a new project, the options in the drop down menu for "Video Rendering and Playback" is greyed out with "Mercury Playback Engine Software Only" as the selected option.
I was also thinking of putting a fresh Lion install on another disk (bah, would prefer to not have to do this since I have other stuff all nice and set up on current OS install), but at this point I'm fine to take the hit and level the playing field w/ a fresh OS, image that for downstream testing if a fresh install is needed again, and then start installing things one at a time until something goes wrong.
It seems (i hope) this error could be caused by something pretty basic as it is a complete showstopper. Unless somehow what I'm doing is super unique, there would be other folks out there dead in the water, to, but making waves.

"your project file is not readable"HELP

"your project file is not readable" is the message I am getting in imovie4.0.1 ... I have just spent 10 hours editing this thing tonight... and numerous hours the last week. I decided to take a break half hour ago and give me and the mac a breather... so I turn the computer back on and go to open my project and get that message. What more can I say... I save alot while I am editing... every 20 min at the most. I am gonna loose it if I lose it... I have over 580 clips in this thing... the tunes were falling into place real nice toooo,,, what can i do???
This is a skateboard video ,,, thats why so many clips... other projects still open...ah man... I bought this computer just for this project... I can not afford for this to happen to me... I am shaking .,.. my nerves... help please.

After losing a whole project in an earlier version of iMovie (when there was no .mov file in the project folder), I started doing several things to prevent another nightmare. ;o)
First, I never empty the trash. I save the project frequently--especially after an edit that was difficult. I quit iMovie and duplicate the project file AND the .mov file several times per iMovie. (File>Duplicate) I type a time code after the name of the duplicates, so it's easy to find the latest one. And periodically I reboot...this may be like knocking on wood.
IF you have these backups AND you get a corrupted project file, you can open a new iMovie project, import the clips, and replace the NEW project file and .mov with the backups. The backups must have the exact name as the new files being replaced.
I've only had to use this one time, but it worked great. I lost some editing, but it was not a big deal compared to losing a whole project.
I THINK this would work even if you lost all your clips, provided you imported the original footage from the same starting points and in the same order as in the original project. If wouldn't be easy with 160 clips, but most of my iMovies are of events captured on one or two miniDV tapes and possibly a couple of Keynote presentations, which I prefer for some of the intros and titling.
Karl, if you come up with a program to repair a corrupted file, you will be a Superhero!

Premier 13 stops working when existing project is loaded (after uninstalling Premier 9 where the project started)

I started a project using Premier 9. Then I upgraded to 13, edited and saved my existing project several times successfully. Decided that it appeared 13 was working well and I no longer needed 9 and 11 (both Photoshop Elements and Premier Elements) so I uninstalled them using the Control Panel app. Now 13 stops working when I try to load my project.
I have since uninstalled/re-installed/rebooted everything in various sequences many many times with no luck. I even purchased and installed another copy of 9 (since the original was a download and I could not find my notes & serial numbers)! The 9 install encountered a problem "an installation process has encountered an error while installing", it stopped, then rolled the install back so I have nothing for 9.
HELP

Probably good idea to recreate the version 9 project in version 13. Investment of time in troubleshooting version 9 is questionable as you say.
At this point, I would leave Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 installed, just do not open it.
When you are between Premiere Elements 13 projects and you want to get rid of Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1,
consider
1. Deactivate the program from an opened project's Help Menu/Deactivate...close out of the program.
2. Uninstall the program the usual Control Panel way
3. Do a free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) to get rid of leftovers from incomplete installs or uninstalls.
CCleaner - Download
Note: Deactivation is not the same as uninstall.
Critical - after a project is saved closed, never move, delete, or rename files/folders that were imported into the project after the project's save close.
When you import files into a project, all you get are copies of the originals. But, those copies need to trace back to the originals in the location where
they were when they were first imported into the project. More on that later as indicated.
Please let me know if any questions or clarification needed on any of the above. Are there any Elements Organizer consideration in any of this?
If so, I would convert the Elements Organizer 9 catalog in Elements Organizer 13 before uninstalling Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1.
Thanks for the follow ups.

Project on save should not leave screen

Hello PS experts,
I need to change the following. When the project is saved I want the project to save and to remain on the current screen....in other words after saving the project screen should not return to the tree where all the projects are displayed. Does anybody know if this is a user setting or do I need to go to the abapper?
Thanks

Yes it is enhancement package 3 & there is no additional fees to be paid for this. You need to activate OPS_PS_CI_1 & then in project builder you will have an additional save button, which would meet your need.
If you're not sure or aware of how to activate the above business function, take help of your technical person or your system admin.

I choose to save and quit when I close Firefox, but recently my pages dissapear on new session for few times. Is the new version unstable?

I choose to 'save and quit' when I close Firefox, but recently my pages disappear on new session for few times. After I reopen firefox, it's only my default homepage left, all my other pages that I previously save before closing firefox are all gone. It has happened for a few times with this new version, which I do not have this kind of problem before with other version. I wonder is this version unstable? Or is there any other way to deal with it? Thanks!

You should update to Firefox 3.6.13. See Help > Check for Updates.
If you use [[Clear Recent History]] to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Session_Restore

Save and Quit tabs does not work properly.

When asked to Save and Quit tabs for the specific session is selected, Firefox does not restore tabs at the next session.
I have read the posts where it is suggested to change the settings and simply never clear the history. However this is not the way that Firefox behaved in older versions, NOR IS IT A SOLUTION due to the following:
The pop-up on exit to Save and Clear is clearly asking the user if that specific session should be remembered and then clearing the history should be superseded by saving instead. Otherwise, what is the point of asking the user to save? A pop-up warning saying that the tabs will not be remembered would be more appropriate.
Regardless, the user has been asked if this specific session should be remembered, and this clearly being the last choice done by the user, supersedes the prior settings for this one specific session. The tabs should be remembered, as the user has instructed (and Firefox used to do in the past), and yet Firefox opens a new session having dumped the information.
Changing the settings to remembering the history instead, does not serve people that want most times to clear it. This would then mandate a manual clearing of history every time before a session is ended instead.
This will need a permanent fix/rollback to the way Firefox used to behaved in these circumstances in older versions.

I lost the save and quite funtion in FF16.0.1 .about config is not working..

I have set the function of save and quite in the FF 15.0.1 However, I lost it after upgraded it to 16.0.1 .I try to use about config method .But it's not working..

Hi,
it seems I lost my other account or made some other mess.
anyway, reading this thread I think I can give you better pointers for troubleshooting than on my blog.
Please run a
dmsetup ls
once you're in the installer (thats for me to verify)
now, next, it seems all that is missing is the multipath config file in the install initrd.
If the target linux mpath (if it still exists, i don't got time for testing) is selected, then multipathd will be launched - but without a config, the internal defaults will take over, meaning you end up with the user friendly name instead of the WWN.
Basically you should be able to find the error looking at the kickstart /etc/rc and restarting multipath with new configs over and over.
Might be fun :)
It would be helpful if Oracle picked up your fixes even w/o a support contract. :)
(ranting: It'll be a festival for me when the multipath tools devs finally get around to groking the world of real sans and create a plugin api for enclosure based naming that is just 10% as good as the one in VxVM. WWIDs are a sad joke, they're intended so the OS can identify the disks well so it can present userful names to the user.
Not to let the user choose between useless udev-names and non-human-readable WWNs. And yeah, I have tried to make udev scripts for enclosure based naming. Didn't go well obviously :)
