Project Title showing up on actual Movie

I am trying to export my movies in iMovie. I create my project title and when I export the video the project title then appears on the actual movie on the bottom, like it was text i added to the movie, even though i didnt. How do i get rid of this? I feel it is some sort of preference but I can't find it anywhere. Any help would be great appreciated. Thanks!

Under some conditions, when you drag a title to the project window (with a full clip selected, for example), it thinks you want that "subtitle" to stay for the whole length. 
In the project window, click on the blue rectangle that is the title, and delete it, or use the Inspector to make it last only 20 seconds or whatever (if you want to have the title appear over the existing video). 
To make a title that's not superimposed over existing video, drag a title style you want in front of the start of your project (a green line will appear in front of the first frame). 
At least, that's the story in iMovie '11 for Mac, not sure about iOS.

  • :30 Project Only Shows :15 in  QT Movie

    I'm new to FC Studio 2. Why does a 30-second export to a Quicktime movie only play back the first 15-seconds when played back in QT?

    Sounds like you set markers (in and outs) in your sequence.
    FCP only exports that area

    How do I move Elements 8 projects (slide shows) from a Windows XP computer to new Windows 7 computer that also has Elements 8 on it so that the slides shows will work (Elements 8 works well on the Windows 7 computer & I have done several new slide show projects on it)?    I tried backup & restore without success.  I have also found the .psess files and copied them to the catalog in the new computer but when the sides shows are opened none of the images or music is there.  Only the text that I entered shows.  I have even tried to replicate the file paths from the XP computer to the new computer to see if that will help.

    UPDATE:  By a stroke of luck I happened to find a catalog link (a PSE8D file) in the 'My Catalog' file where the imported data was stored.  When I clicked on it to investigate what is was 'magically' all of my transferred projects appeared in Organizer.  Upon further investigation I found that the projects transferred from my XP computer were stored in a hidden catalog that had to be accessed through the Custom Location option in Catalog Manager (accessed by clicking File then Catalog then Custom Location).  No Windows or Elements search revealed this fact.  I am appreciative that I just got lucky.  The Adode/Photoshop company was absolutely of no help.  If fact to me their structure is designed to avoid contact with their customers unless you're buying a new product.  Their products have many good features (even though user unfriendly) and it's a shame they don't value their customers more once the sale is completed. 
    Bottom line:  All of the projects (sideshows) have been recovered and work in my new Windows 7 computer.  I hope my experience helps others. 

  • The library shows up as just titled. no choice of music,movies, etc. what's wrong?, The library shows up as just titled. no choice of music,movies, etc. what's wrong?

    I can't import a music library from home share. The library shows as only a title..not with music, movies etc beneath it to select. When I click on the library after a short wait it goes back to a music/scan for media screen because I have no music to display. on my other computer, it acts as if it would import the blank library but that is not the direction i want it to go.

  • Simple title shows up as missing compound clip after 10.1 update

      None of my projects had any missing files prior to updating to 10.1. It all went quite smoothly with the exception of one project that has three or four clips that now show up as compound clips, but they were not compound clips in the original. One is a simple scrolling title.  If I open the supposed compound clip in the timeline it looks like this:
        It is "attached" in some way to the previous still image and in fact if I return to the main timeline and select the clip and expand it by clicking and dragging the left handle so as to make the title longer it will actually roll into the previous clips and then the red "missing" compound clip will contain previous clip sections. Oddly if I play the project it all plays just fine and there are none of the clips that are marked as missing cause a problem.
         Has anyone seen this kind of behavior before?
        My product list is out of date....

    You may soon develop a reputation for knowing something about this program, Tom. 
    Thanks very much. Now to research on why a project that was in the Updated Projects "folder" and then dragged to an event has disappeared entirely...but I'll post that question if I can't find the answer.

  • I am adding a voice over - it plays when I am in "clip trimmer" mode but NOT in the actual movie ... frustrating - any help?

    I am adding a voice over - it plays when I am in "clip trimmer" mode but NOT in the actual movie ... frustrating - any help?am in

    In Finder you will find the voiceover in the project's package contents folder. If on your internal drive, the project will be in your User (Home) folder Movies/iMovie projects. If on an external drive it will be in the iMovie Projects folder at the top (root) level of the drive.
    Right-click (or Control-click) on the project name and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. There should be a file named something like Voiceover Recording.caf in the package contents folder. Copy and paste this .caf file to the Desktop. See if it will open in QuickTime, GarageBand or another program capable of editing audio, such as MPEG Streamclip or Audacity (both free). If it will open, save (export) it in a different format, such as AIFF, preferably to a location where it will not be moved, such as iTunes.
    Now drag that file into iMovie to the desired position (if in iTunes drag from iMovie's music browser panel). Hopefully it will now play correctly.

  • Music album cover images and track titles show on iPhone 4s but music doesn't play - any ideas?

    I am a Young at Heart Senior, new to iPhone 4s, have an old creaking pc with Windows XP Home.....but plan to enter the real world any day soon by buying a new Mac!
    Here is my problem, I purchased an album on iTunes and mistakenly started to sync it to my phone, (although I don't have iCloud loaded on my pc). I stopped it mid download and later noticed that the total track numbers were showing as a red number above the "more" button as if they were waiting to complete the download. It stayed there while I thought about it for a few days, but when I click the Album button all the tracks are listed.
    Now to the funny part.....when I click on a track or indeed any of them, it doesn't play a sound...but the progress bar above moves as if "now playing".
    So, I thought.... no problem, I would connect the phone up to iTunes and delete the tracks....but when I do so, this album and none of it's track titles show in my music list for the phone......weird.
    So, I have a large album with titles only on my phone, no music behind the titles (which, incidentally, is rubbish anyway) and I can't get rid of it off my phone, any of you young whizzy iPhoners have any ideas how to clear it off???
    I did think I might just Restore my phone, but wondered whether downloading all my stuff from iCloud would still include the dreaded  "Now That's What I Call Christmas" album, which I only purchased in late 2011 to play at a seniors Xmas party...........you live and learn!
    You will guess from my ramblings that I am not at all techy, but consider myself willing to learn and apart from this hiccup........I luuuurve my iPhone!

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • Imovie projects not showing up in idvd

    I have been trying to share my imovies to idvd to get some discs burned all night!  I am clicking on a edited project in imovie. Then Share then share to media browser, then large, then publish.  When I open up the movies tab in idvd it isn't there.  The only movies showing up are the unedited events from imovies.  I have tried everything.  I did convert all of these movies from vhs using elgato video capture.  That worked fine.  I have enough space etc.  Any ideas?  I am right in understanding that the movies shared to the media browser should show up under the movie tab in idvd, aren't I?

    Figured it out...Went under "File > Import > Movies" in iDVD. The movies showed up when I did that. Still don't understand why they don't show up under "Media." Everything worked beautifully after that.

  • How do I get back an imovie project that shows up in the Project library but doesn't show up in imovie itself?

    Worked on an i-Movie project yesterday but when opened i-Movie this morning, the project showed a date of January 13 as last modified date and the project was completely empty.  When I look in Project Library, I can see the project from yesterday. How do I get it back into my i-Movie so it will open.  Thanks.

    It's best to report this to Apple, as the more they hear from us the more likely we'll get a fix (hopefully). There is probably a common issue with this, but I'm struggling to think of what may have triggered the problem. Was it a "recent" update to iMovie or OS X Mountain Lion, or perhaps another updated app conflicting with iMovie?
    To report the problem to Apple, in iMovie's menu click on iMovie > Provide iMovie Feedback.

  • What should I do if my still-picture will not show up in my movie?

    My still will not show up in my movie project. It either shows up black or like a still of the one in front of it. I don't know what to do. Some pictures do this and some don't. What should I do to make it show up?

  • I have made an imovie on my ipad and for some reason the final edit will not keep. When I open the actual projct to edit, it is the way I want it, but when I look at the actual movie

    I have made an imovie on my ipad and for some reason the final edit will not keep. When I open the actual projct to edit, it is the way I want it, but when I look at the actual movie and what loads up to youtube is the version prior to this final fix. I have tried fixing it at least twenty times. The open to edit version has the video the way I want but when I upload it to youtube, its not the version I want to show.

    Well, assuming all of the above, Notifications, etc., it just might be time for a visit to the Apple tore genius center for a session with the techs.  See if it is a fault in the hardware or just an iOS reinstall is the answer.
    One more thing you could try, backup so you have a record of content, then restore to factory conditions be an Erase All Contents and Settings.  Then restore from the backup you just made.  That has helped some with WiFi problems, may be it would work with your problems.
    But with that behavior of another app with problems, the geniuses looks like a less stressful thing to do.

  • Project size a lot larger than movie size

    Hi,
    When I add a 500 mb movie to iDVD, the project window shows it is using 3gb+ of disc space. Why is it using so much space? I was hoping to add at least 2 movies to one disc. My settings are NTSC, BEST PROFORMANCE, and SINGLE LAYER 4.2 GB.
    Am I doing something wrong, or is this just the way it is?
    Thanks

    Don't worry about file size. iDVD is only concerned with the total playing time of all assets including menus. If your playing time is under 120 minutes it will fit on a single layer DVD-R disk.
    If your playing time is less than 60 minutes you can use Best Performance encoding. Between 60 and 120 it can be either Best Quality or Professional Quality. If you have lots of movement in the movies then Professional Quality may give you better results particularly for those scenes with fast movement.

  • RoboHelp 8 - Webhelp Project - Title Mismatch

    How do you change the title on the frame of a webhelp project to match the title on the compiled project? The first screenshot shows the correct title, Order Entry Form.
    The second screenshot is incorrect = RH Styles Development. I have deleted all references to RH Styles Dev in my project, but it still appears on the version copied to our server.
    Any ideas on how to change it to the correct title in the first screenshot?
    Thanks!

    Hi there
    Try clicking File > Project Settings > General tab and change the Project Title field.
    Then generate the output again and test.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Can't see event titles or project titles when looking at photos in the photo view in Aperture 3?

    Howdy,
    I recently switched from iPhoto 11 to Aperture 3. The only drawback so far is I am unable to view Project Titles when I am viewing all of my photos in the photo view. In iPhoto, I often would look at all of my photos in photo view while displaying the event titles. Is this possible in Aperture? Also, is there a simple way to view the file names underneath the photos in photo view instead of seeing the version name?

    Hi Greg.  Welcome to Aperture and the Apple Aperture users forum.

    You should set up all seven of the Metadata Overlays to meet your needs.  (iPhoto is designed as a turn-key operation for those who prefer their meals prepared; Aperture is a kitchen for those who like to cook.)

    Have you looked at Projects View (click "Projects" at the top of the Library tab of the Inspector)?  You can group your Projects by Folder or by Year, and you can sort them in a number of ways.  There is no information pane which shows up on Aperture as you scroll (as there is in iPhoto).
    Projects View, imho, add tremendous functionality to Aperture.  You can add descriptions to your Projects (and these are included in searches) via the Projects Information window ("{Shift}+i" with a Project selected.)

  • Adding an Alt Tag actually MOVES the image?

    I don't understand this at all. All I am doing is modifying
    an alt tag on an image, and that image actually moves to a
    different location on the page, both in the DESIGN VIEW inside DW
    CS 3 and on the webpage itself when I save it to the server. I have
    even gone in and told the system never to rewrite code on php
    files, which this file is.
    Is there some known issue I should know about, or a solution
    to this problem? Very frustrating.
    You can see what image Im referring to here -
    folliclone.com/index1.php ... the "Get Started" image ... when i
    change the alt from the existing "getstarted" to something else
    like "hair loss guides", the image actually moves itself above the
    "SEARCH image on the left, and screws up the entire alignment of
    the page in doing so.

    The problem is that you're using an XHTML doctype and XHTML
    requires
    that all tag and attributes names be lower case. If you
    change the above
    to:
    <meta name="robots" content="noodp" />
    <meta name="googlebot" content="noodp" />
    I suspect you'll find it validates just fine.

    The ampersand has special meaning in the source code of html.
    It is the
    beginning of a character entity. To properly display an
    ampersand in the
    rendered page, you need to use the &amp; character
    entity.

    It's not a limitation of the validator. The validator is
    doing exactly
    what it's supposed to do. It's indicating invalid code. Made
    up tags are
    not valid, so they get flagged as such. Browsers are supposed
    to ignore
    any tag they don't understand, but it seems risky to me. What
    is the
    purpose of putting a tag that means nothing in the code?
