Drag and drop doesn't work - instead do a File -> import -> movies and select from there.

BTW, I went into Photo and deleted most of the unwanted videos and photos but 1 photo stubbornly stays in the area for editing and I can't find a way to close it in order to delete it. Help!

Dragging QT clips to iMovie

I have a Firestore FS-4 Pro (external hard drive) that I use when recording football for the local community college. When recording, the footage is recorded as Quick Time files on the FS-4. When I mount the drive, open the folder and drag the files into iMovie, the clips are out of order. (Note: the clips are in order, according to time code, within the Folder on the hard drive.)
However, I did figure out that if I enlarge the Folder "window" so that the clips are say four or five across in each row, and then select only the clips in a given row, then the files get "imported" in order. So I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the way iMovie and/or Tiger in general handles the organization and "ordering" of files when they exchanged from a folder to say an application like iMoive. Thanks for the knowledge.

Right you are!

How do i drag a video into imovie 0'9 from a camera

okay so i have my canon camera SX40 HS, and it's already on my desktop so how do i drag it to imovie?

Hey,
You just need to import the file through file - import movie inside iMovie. It will then import it to an event and you can start editing with it. You could also plug the camera into the computer and import from camera inside iMovie as well.

Can I freely drag & drop clips in iMovie's timeline?

I'm trying to make a vid of clips playing along with the lyrics of a song. It'd be easier if I could drag the clips wherever I want, but they just get stuck in the position they're dropped in.

Do you mean that you are trying to get the clips to change in time with the music? You can drag them around in any order but iMovie will not leave any spaces between them so you have to adjust their durations to get the timing right.

How do I empty all clips from imovie 9.0.4

I can't empty all the old clips from iMovie, please help.

Buy iDVD.
Yes, there are other programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes. None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.
With iDVD you can easily and quickly create DVDs with menus and graphics almost on the level of what Hollywood can do.
IDVD is easy to get. It is available on disk as part of iLife 11.
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40. (works with all Mac OS 10.5 and newer.)

How do I copy a clip in iMovie 09 into iMovie HD

How can I cut audio clips within iMovie?

This may be a simple solution but I just can't seem to figure it out. I would like to add audio (music) to just the beginning of my iMovie project. But whenever I drop a music file into the timeline, it stretches it all the way through the entire movie.
Also, I'd like to know how to only adjust my voice to certain clips of the movie, and not the whole entire timeline.

If you only want the sound clip for a set period of time, drag it on top of one of the video clips near the beginning that will prevent the audio from becoming a 'background music clip'. Grab the title bar of that clip in the Project window and drag it until the whole background area changes from purple/green to the normal dark grey color of the Project window. Same would apply to your voice clips as well, just drag those sound clips right on the very middle of the thumbnail image of the video clip, and then slide it around to where it needs to be by dragging it to the left or right.

How do I split a clip in iMovie 09?

When I'm in a clip within an event, there is no option to SPLIT CLIP if I right click, and CMD-Shift-S does nothing.
What am I missing? I have imported clips that imported as one long clip, so I need to split up the clip and then split up the event.

No need to use Toast. Just find the EyeTV file in the finder (right-click/reveal in Finder).
Then, right-click on Finder file and select "Show Package Contents".
Drag the .mpg file into MPEG Streamclip
From Streamclip, I usually export as Apple Intermediate Codec. It is slightly smaller than a DV file, and iMovie seems to work better with AIC than DV. But DV is OK too if you prefer DV.
Note: I usually deinterlace as I export from Streamclip into AIC.
Also, in MPEG Streamclip, when you export the clip, give it a name like clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.ext (where ext is the extension such as MOV or DV or MP4 - streamclip should apply the extension automatically based on your export codec.)
iMovie will automatically place it in an event in the correct month and year, and the date metadata will work.

How do you edit movie clips in iMovie 11 on MacBook Pro?

I am trying to edit an iMovie project on my husband's MacBook Pro, since I can't get my iMac to work (long frustrating day here!). I don't see the "edit" tool (looks like a pencil) that my iMac has, and am having trouble figuring out how to select and delete specific clips in the movie.
Thank you so very much, in advance!

How to i split audio clips? Imovie 11

I'm trying to split a voice over audio clip I recorded in Quicktime and imported into my project. I can't find the precision editor nor can I select the clip and activate the split clip command under the Clip menu. It's dim. I cannot find out how to split it. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
I'm using iMovie 11.

Using iMovie 11 on Mac 10.8.3, when I right-click on a sound track, this is the menu I see:
No 'split clip'.

How do i unreject a clip in imovie 11

i cannot find any help with 11. any suggestions?

To reject a clip, you use the Reject Tool (looks like an X) on the middle toolbar. It will mark the clip in red.
To see the rejected clips, there is a SHOW box at the bottom of the iMovie window. CLick either ALL or Rejected Only to see the rejected clips.
To unreject, you use the UnMark tool from the middle toolbar (It looks like an empty star)

Can't figure out how to slow down a clip in iMovie HD

I used to be able to import a clip, select it, and then slow it down (or speed it up) with a rabbit/tortoise slider at the bottom. I can't seem to find this feature since I upgraded to iMove HD.

just found this:
Click on the Effects button and you'll find one called Fast/Slow/Reverse.
