Quicktime Movies Not showing as Events

I recently upgraded from a PowerBook G4 running iMovie '06 to a PowerBook Pro running iMovie '11.  When I used to finish a project in '06 I converted it to Quicktime with no compression and stored it on an external hard drive, since I had only 80 gigs on my internal drive. I then trashed the original project, figuring I could always restore it by dragging in the QT movie.  When I received my new MBP I put all movies from the external on the internal, since I had plenty of space.  Unfortunately the QT Movies do not show up as events in iMovie '11. What gives?
Also some of the listings in the events have a "!" over them.  What does that mean?

If you are loading your Shockwave movie into a browser from your local HDD (instead of having the page served from the web) then you need to have a folder named "dswmedia" somewhere in the path for external files to load. Check the help docs.

  • Imported Movies Not Showing In Events In iMovie After Import

    Might be a simple question, but nevertheless, the issue has me pulling my hair out. Hopefully I will find some help here...
    Recently purchased an El Gato Eye TV HD. Works great and allows export of HD video recorded from TV and such, very nice. I have exported video from it using HD 720P format and then import it into iMovie with no problems....sometimes. Sometimes after iMovie completes the import, when I select the Event it says that there is no such video and to select another event. Any thoughts on this? I use the same process every time but more often than not the import "doesn't take," as it were. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the tips, but none of these items is the issue. I am using an external 300GB connected via FW 800. The drive has maybe 20GB of stuff on it, so that is not an issue. I can't figure the issue out, because I did a little test. I took some video I captured using the El Gato device, exported as HD 720P. Using iMovie on the Mac Mini, iMovie won't see it on the Mac Mini. I took the same exported version as above and put it on my MBP (2.16GHz, 3GB RAM). Imported it into iMovie in the same procedure as I did on the Mini. Except this time on the laptop, iMovie sees it. Something somewhere on th eMini isn't working right. I have tried repairing disc permissions without luck, so I guess I am down to wiping and reinstalling all my software on the Mini. Hopefully that will work. Any thoughts?

  • ITunes movies not showing up on Apple TV

    I'm having some trouble with my movies not showing up on Apple TV.
    The movies I am missing are not purchased from iTunes but I have converted them using Handbrake. I've double checked the format and they seem to be what's required from what I've read in other threads.
    I've also made sure they are in the "movies" category and not "home movies."
    I'm not the most computer savy person... most of what I know is just from reading threads.  Can someone help?
    Here is the format of a movie that's not showing up:
    H.264, 720 x 304, Millions
    AAC, Stereo (L R), 48.00 kHz
    Movie FPS: 23.98
    Playing FPS: 23.98
    Data Size: 1.24 GB
    Data Rate: 938.58 kbits/sec
    Normal Size: 720 x 304 pixels
    Current Size: 720 x 304 pixles

    RogerOut makes some good points and this feels to me like a ham fisted attempt by Apple to take control of my media in a way that I don't want.  The stuff it is choosing to call "home movie" is 100% legit movies, but not ones I bought through the itunes store.  So I load a movie and then it mysteriously does not show up in my Apple TV because it has defaulted to "home movie".
    What I still fail to understand is what the heck is the purpose of this apart from annoying users who's stuff now does not appear on ATV without explanation or warning.  So glad to have this forum to help me, but why should I have to do this to figure out how to overcome a stupid thing that Itunes is doing to my movie (it is a movie!)?
    As I say though, what possible benefit is it for a users media to be labelled in this way and anyway, why does calling it a home movie make it unreadable in ATV?

  • In iphone 4 mobile me calander not showing all events in list view

    i have iphone 4 Mobile me calendar not showing all events in list view where as showing all events in month/day view. why so & how to resolve

    It started about a week ago. The "From" drop-dow is now missing in Mac Mail. It should appear beneath the subject line. I was working with MobileMe Chat support for about 3 hours. They cannot solve the problem and have now escalated it to the "Senior Advisor Team."

  • Why are my movies not showing on my Mac Book, which is the computer that I used to purchase the movie, but showing on my IMAC at home...I am currently deployed.

    why are my movies not showing on my Mac Book, which is the computer that I used to purchase the movie, but showing on my IMAC at home...I am currently deployed so this ***** a bit. Also how do I keep this incedent from happending in the future?

    No, this is not the case. I know where i purchased the movie and I also know movies cant be added to the cloud such as music, TV shows can.  The instance happened during the dowload. I think that depending which computer is up and running and the bandwith allocated on either network, which ever computer that finishes first is the one that gets the movie. Just a thought. So next time I will ensure my IMAC is not running. I think that fixes it.
    Thanks

  • Skillbuilder calendar plugin does not show any events

    Hi,
    I have installed the Skillbuilder calendar plugin and added it to a page. The actual calendar renders fine, however it does not show any events despite the fact that I know events are there to be shown.
    The SQL I am using is
    select
      rowid as id,
      job_number as title,
      'false' as all_day,
      to_char(start_date,'YYYY-MM-DD "T" HH24:MI:SS') as start_date,
      null as end_date,
      null as url,
      null as class_name
    from diary_vw
    In SQL Dev this shows the following results:
    ID
    TITLE
    ALL_DAY
    START_DATE
    END_DATE
    URL
    CLASS_NAME

    I have tried specifying the END_DATE as well using a similar format but still no joy.
    Any ideas?
    Regards,
    Jeremy

    I don't use that plugin, but I believe the problem could be this line
      to_char(start_date,'YYYY-MM-DD "T" HH24:MI:SS') as start_date
    Have you tried selecting start_date instead? Is start_date a date column?
    Also, I believe you should specify both start and end date; I don't see how else is your event supposed to show on the calendar.
    Like I said, I don't use that plugin, so I'm quite possibly wrong, but if you recreate the problem on apex.oracle.com, I'll be happy to look at it.

  • After install snow leopard, ical does not show the events of some calendars

    After I install snow leopard, ical does not show all the events, or simple does not show the events of some calendars that I created.
    Can somebody solve this problem? Is there some update for ical?

    Try the following:
    1 - Go to your user account home folder, and open the library folder within it.
    Look for the folder named "Calendars" and inside you might find a bunch of different folders with weird names. If they are there that means your calendars might not be lost.
    2 - Look for the file "Calendar Cache". That file might be corrupted. Trash it. You may want to save a copy of it elsewhere. Once trashed, re-open ical. This should force it to rebuild its library based on those folders with weird names you saw. Your calendars should be back. Good luck

  • IPhoto movies not showing up in "iPhoto Movies" tab of iMovie

    Some of my iPhoto movies aren't showing up in the "iPhoto Movies" tab under the events browser. Does anyone know of a way to ensure that all of them show up? They are all of the same video format, so I don't know why some are appearing and others are not.

    But in iMovie, only two of these movies show up in the iPhoto videos events. How do I get the third one to show up in iMovie?
    Not sure, but try this: Close iMovie. From iPhoto, drag the AVI movie to the Desktop. This will create a copy on the Desktop. Now drag this file back into iPhoto. You will be asked if you wish to import a duplicate - click on Import. Now open iMovie - hopefully the newly imported AVI movie in iPhoto will now be recognised by iMovie, which will commence creating thumbnails. If desired, you can delete the original movie from iPhoto.
    If this doesn't work, try converting the AVI file to another format. This can be done in either QuickTime 7 or QuickTime X, depending on the conversion required. Open the AVI file on your Desktop (the one dragged from iPhoto earlier) in QuickTime X. If the movie is 640 x 480 go to File>Save As and choose the format HD 480p. That will save the movie in H.264 format using 2 Mbits/s at up to 640 x 480 resolution. If your original movie is in some other resolution, you will probably be given other Save As options, so choose the most appropriate. If you have QuickTime 7, you can export using a much wider range of formats. However, the best to use are AIC (Apple Intermediate Codec) or the H.264 format - both work perfectly with iMovie '09.
    Once you have the exported file (whether from QuickTime 7 or X), import it to iMovie. In iMovie's menu choose File>Import Movies. You should now be in business!

  • Quicktime embed not showing controls

    I have several embedded quicktime movies on my website, for some reason they do not show the controls even though the embed and object tags specifically say to controller=true.
    Is this a factor of the file itself, what is the fix?

    Adding a controller requires you add 16 pixels to the actually file height.
    e.g. a 320X240 QuickTime file would use 320X256 in the html page code.

  • Movie not showing, only photos

    Hi, When I try to put DVD's that I took from my camra, it did not show in the actuall movie, only photo's will show. I don't know how to resolve the problem.
    Intel core duo macmini   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Your camera is not compatible with iMovie so you will need to convert the DVD files to something iMovie can use...read this:
    Using Mpeg (DVD) footage

  • A movie not showing...

    I burnt a DVD off of a client of footage they took from a handy cam. I am trying to open and view it it but it's not showing. But a message pops up and says that the DVD is not a movie file but some other kind of pov file or something. I put it on a PC and it did open as an Mpeg file. What would be the problem with opening it on a MAc? How do I open it? My purpose is to capture and import it onto Final Cut Express and edit it.
    Keep me posted,

  • Ical not showing new events and older events as well

    Hi There,
    Since (as I recall) last monday, iCal started to work strange. Or, better put in other way: stopped working.
    I have three calendars only (personal, work and "no category), all of them syncing with iCloud. There are two other local calendars too (in "my mac"), but I don't use them and they are unchecked.
    I only use my macbook white and an iphone 3GS, also syncing with iCloud.
    I don't subscribe any external calendar and don't accept any kind of invitation. It is a basic-simple use: I set my appointments (throw the whole year) and want to see / edit them on iphone.
    Finally, I use reminders (on iphone) a lot and share the "personal" calendar with my with (she uses iCloud on her iphone and ipad).
    The problems are basic two (as I could indentify so far):
    1) I can't set new appointments on iCal. Or better: I may set, but cannot see it. For instance, when a double click the Feb 24th to set a appointment, nothing happens, but a "New event" apperars on iCloud, right way. Looks like that iCal is setting the event up, but it just does not show it. Lately, I've discovered that when I go to the week view in iCal, it shows the event, but it just don't appear on month or year views;
    2) There are a bunch of events that appear correctly on iCloud (and iphone) but just don't show up in my iCal.
    I've been trying to find a solution, already followed a couple of step-by-step possible solution (deleted local calendars, took off iClound accoun from iCal, deleted all files on specific folders in my library), but anything work out. It just don't work anymore.
    Scary...
    I have just quit iCal and started using iCloud as my main input way for may events.... Wonder if anyone else is facing something like this and if is there any sollution out there.
    Thanks a lot in advance and sorry for my bad English.

    i have a similar problem. i can't add any new events to my ical. i can do it on ical on icloud but not on the ical on my itouch. i can't edit them either. it tells me the event can not be saved because a calendar has not been chosen. it was working just fine yesterday and now it won't work.
    i'm new to this on line community stuff. i posted my questions but i don't know how i'm supposed to see any answers. i guess it doesn't matter that i even ask you this or reply to you because i don't plan to be able to see any comments to this. oh well. computer stuff is just crap  sometimes. i guess we have to learn to deal with it.
    my paper calendar NEVER gave me any problems. i would just pull out my trusty pen and write down my appointment and wallah! it was done. it wouldn't get erased or deleted or stop working.

  • Calendar Widget Not Showing Upcoming Events

    I've upgraded to the latest N900 firmware (pr1.2) and ever since I have had a problem with the calendar widget. All the events are contained in the calendar when I open it however they are not displayed on the desktop widget.
    I've got events loaded for the month of June but for some reason these are not showing. Instead I have events showing for July, September and even December. I've tried removing all the entries and the re-adding them but this hasn't solved the problem. I also created another calendar and placed the entries in the new one, again this didn't work.
    Does anybody have any idea how I can resolve this problem.

    I have exactly the same problem with the Calendar Widget not showing all upcoming events. It will show events way in the future but skip events inbetween. I've tried all day with PC Suite 7.1 and Outlook 2007 and some freshly entered events come across for unknown reasons whilst others do not. No amount of changing local entries to synchronized ones, deleting all calendar info from the phone and re-syncing by USB cable or Bluetooth solves the problem.
    It worked fine before and, as you say, corresponds with the recent n900 software update.
    I SINCERELY HOPE NOKIA READ THESE BULLETIN BOARDS.
    Also, why isn't there a fully compatible PC Suite or Ovi Suite for the n900? I have a PC running Windows 7 and Nokia have told me in the past that they do not have a fully functional, compatible PC/Ovi Suite for Windows 7 and the n900. 
    IF ANYONE CAN HELP I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT
