Project will not open for Editing from Project Library

Help! I'm a teacher who puts together a 5 minute news show each week. I was almost done last night when imovie crashed. I tried to get into the project library and can see my project with everything done but the titles and sound. I select it and hit the edit button and nothing happens. I double click and nothing happens. In the project file, the project has a turned down right corner. Save me ! This is due first thing in the morning and I still have all the tweaking to do to the sound and titles.
Thanks!

Open the file with Preview and do a Save As. Either change the format or keep the tiff. That should fix the files so they can be viewed normally in iPhoto. If the problem is due to an alpha channel in the file this will fix the problem.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • TIFF images are displayed as thumbnails but will not open for editing

    I have noticed a problem with my iPhoto 7.xx
    iPhoto displays the thumbnail of TIFF files but when it is selected (for editing as an example), iPhoto displays a grey circle with a black question mark. This happens with TIFF images from any source (multiple camera, scanner, etc). The TIFF files are NOT in raw format.

    Open the file with Preview and do a Save As. Either change the format or keep the tiff. That should fix the files so they can be viewed normally in iPhoto. If the problem is due to an alpha channel in the file this will fix the problem.

  • AE Project will not open after program crashed

    AE project will not open after program crashed. I tried opening the project inside another project so I could at least get to the sequences but it would not load. Nothing seems to open the project. I can create new projects. I am on PC

    Well, bad news for you: It's a goner. Simply write it off and re-create it and next time learn how to work safely.

  • Premiere elements 13 new projects will not open.

    Premiere Elements 13 new projects will not open.

    thomasK
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running on?
    Has the program ever opened to the Expert workspace or the Quick workspace?
    Some of the typical drill questions:
    1. Does the problem exist with and with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled? Do you have any other security programs
    on your computer?
    2. Are you running the program as Administrator in a home computer in contrast to a school or company network?
    3. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    4. Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements?
    5. What video card/graphics card does your computer use and is the driver version up to date according to the
    web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    How far do you get...Welcome Screen, Video Editor, New Project or elsewhere? Any error messages?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • I just reinstalled iTunes, and it will not open, as it says iTunes library itl. was created from an earlier version. Any idea what this means, and how I can get itunes to open?

    I just reinstalled iTunes, and it will not open, as it says iTunes library itl. was created from an earlier version. Any idea what this means, and how I can get itunes to open?

    Many thanks.
    That suggests that another application has stashed old QuickTime componentry in your system files.
    So just in case we'll go looking for older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
    First we'll need to change some view settings.
    In your Start menu, open Computer.
    In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
    In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
    Click OK.
    Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

  • Photo will not open to edit...get a triangle error

    photo will not open to edit...get a triangle error

    This indicates a disconnect between the Thumbnail and the original
    this can be caused by two things
    1 - User action deleting items from inside the iPhoto  library - can be directly - can be from the All images list (never delete from there) - can be from running cleanup software like MacKeeer, CleanMac2  or other dangerous, defective software that improperly deletes or changes things in the to library - if you have done any of these things you must restore your backup from before you ran them and damaged your iPhoto library - and I recommend getting rid of them ASAP (although being essentially MalWear it is not easy)
    2 - corruption of the iPhoto library - IIf it is not #1 then Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your database

  • Iphoto on my used mac mini will not open my photos from my new macbook air, it says to update software but there arent any available.. please help

    iphoto on my used mac mini will not open my photos from my new macbook air,  it says something about updating the software, but i checked and there arent any updates available... please help

    Sorry for the second post..
    I currently do not have an older version of iPhoto to test this on, but you might also try coping the Originals from the iPhoto Library of iPhoto 11.
    To do that;
    1. Right (control) click on the iPhoto Library in the Picture Folder on the MacBook Air
    2. Select Show Package Content.
    3. Click on the Originals Folder
    4. Navigate to the disired Event or photos and copy those images to your Flash or External Drive, then copy those to the older version of iPhoto.
    Beware do not move, add or delete anything in the iPhoto Library, Apple has intensionally hidden it in later versions to prevent people from messing things up.

  • Sequence File will not unlock for editing

    A password was set on a sequence file.  This password was copied from an instruction on how to create a deployment for a set of test.  The sequence  file will not unlock for editing.  How can I unlock the sequence file?  I am using Test Stand 2014.  This file was last edited in Test Stand 2014.

    I'm not 100% sure what you are having problems with. Is the problem that you simply don't remember the password? Or are you unsure how to get teststand to prompt to unlock the file? You can always go to the sequence file property dialog to unlock the file, assuming you know the password.

  • Hi, I have recently updated my OS X to Maverick. when I did, my mail programme (Mail) will not open - for me only. There are 4 other users of the iMac, and they don't appear to have any problems.

    Hi, I have recently updated my OS X to Maverick. when I did, my mail programme (Mail) will not open - for me only. There are 4 other users of the iMac, and they don't appear to have any problems.

    First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
    Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
    Reboot & test.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

    when forwarding mail i select a group to send mail and when i go to select another group it will not open for me to select other emails in that file.

    When you select a "group", it automatically selects everyone in that group.
    If your just trying to add other people outside that group, then in the "To" make sure the curser is just after the last entry and you can hold your finger on that line to get your contact list to pop up or after the last entry you should have showing after that ;    
    Example:   [email protected]; [email protected];          *notice the ; then a space for the next one
