The volume for music clip that I drag into Imovie 08 can't be reduced.

I have dragged several audio tracks over to my video that I am editing. Everything was going fine I was able to reduce the volume to the percentage I wanted then suddenly all the tracks on my video are playing at 100%. I check the audio information and it is set at a lower percentage. Just to experiment I set the volume at 0% and it still plays at 100%. This has happened before but all I needed to do was restart my mac and it was fine. This time it didn't work. I have spent several hours setting up the audio on my video it would really suck if I had to do it all over again.
I don't know why people say Macs have less problems than PCs. Mine doesn't.

thanks for the link but unfortunately it doesn't help. I think my IMovie 08 might be corrupted or something. Because nothing can reduce the imported audio track's volume. I might need to take it to back to my store and ask them to have a look at it.

  • How do you change the volume for multiple clips in one go?

    Hi all,
    Im having some trouble with audio. Im posting this in a rush so sorry in advance if its a bit muddled! Im editing snow reports with a journo piece to camera (track one lapel microphone) with overlay (track two nat sound ).
    1. is there a way to only bring in track one only and track two only from the source monitor?
    2. Is it possible to adjust the volume on multiple clips that are on the timeline (so that i can bring down the nat sound for all of the overlay track two)
        At the moment im bringing them into the timeline and adjusting them individually. I tried lowering the volume on one clip and saving it as a preset but    it wont let me.
    your help is greatly appreciated
    Paul

    Duplicate the audio once editing is done.  In the Mixer window, apply the Fill Left effect to one audio track, and the Fill Right effect to the other.  Then adjust the mixer appropriately.

  • How do I reload my video clips that I recorded into iMovie?

    How do I reload my video clips that I recorded into iMovie? My project is there but my original iMovie videos are gone which does not allow my iMovie to play.  The screen is black. I need Help!

    Please have a look at my post at:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5649660?tstart=0
    where I describe what files should be present for iMovie 9 to work for someone else with a similar problem.  They must either be in the users Movies folder on the start up drive or at the root level of any other partition or connected external drive.

  • Auto Set the Volume for Music and Podcast?

    I would like to automatically set the volume adjustment (+100%) for all my music and podcasts.
    I get 1-2 podcasts everyday and have to manually set the volume after they have downloaded (Get Info->Options)
    I can make mass changes by selecting multiple items - but what I hope to do is make a setting so that all new music/podcast etc are auto set to this volume.
    I use open headphones outside a lot and some of the podcasts cannot be heard even on max volume slider. Adjusting the volume works fine but as I mentioned I do it manually
    Hope you can help

  • I am having a difficult time getting the duration of multiple selected clips. The duration display only will display the time for one clip.  Yes, I know I can add them up myself, but why?  :-)

    I am using imovie 10.0.6

    For reasons that you would have to ask Apple for they decided not to allow the precise position of the playhead to be shown in iMovie 10 (unlike in FCP 10.1.x).

  • How do I reduce the size of a picture that I dragged into a document

    How do I change the size of a photo that I dragged from pictures into a document?  It's huge.

    Try putting your cursor over the document, hold down 'control' and click.
    What are the available options?
    Of course, the exact method will depend on what program the document you've opened belongs to, Word, Pages, Libreoffice, etc?

  • In iphoto I get the mesage "The volume for [picture] cannot be found"  What does this mean?  I can see the pictures

    iphoto message is "The volume for this photo cannot be found."  I can see the pictures but cannot move them?

    The "volume" is referring to the picture's location, i.e. hard drive, etc. In any case there is an iPhoto forum where those experts are. Post there.

  • Why such sorry sound quality on iTunes? On some of my purchases the sound level is suppressed on the audio. On others the volume is so low that if I have it set for another song and a new one starts I have to increase the volume to hear it.

    There is so much distortion on some of the music I have to play it with QuickTime to get a "clean" track.
    What can be done to get a consistent volume level or is this another typical Apple product that you have to take what you get and be happy because it's not a Microsoft product?

    If that's the best you can do why don't you get on another forum?

  • Can the volume for downloaded music tracks be synced and how

    can the volume for downloaded music tracks from itunes be synced and how if so

    Hard to know what the cause is  because it's like this
    I know what I did to cause this. I upgraded my one of my hard drives, renamed the drive and moved the folder. The missing pictures it can't find were added with the option in the advance menu "copy photo to library" turned off.
    and this
    What I did is added a small SSD as my primary drive. Put the OS and all the apps on it.  Moved my iPhoto and iTunes libraries to an large external.  Most of the picture it is not having a problem wth.  Only certain ones.  Don't actually think I unchecked tha prefeence, but it's acting like i have.

    Have you ever even used skype on an iphone or ipod?  We tried it and there is no way to type to each other while you are video chatting.  You can do the typing during the video on a COMPUTER, but not on an iphone or ipod.

  • The volume for documents cannot be found message

    Similar threads didn't quite yield the results I was hoping for, so I thought I would give this a shot. I am getting a "the volume for documents cannot be found" message when I click on my Documents folder in the lefthand column of a Finder window. I do not have the same problem with movies or music. However, when I click on the Documents folder in my Home menu, my documents are all there. Searches reveal that they are there as well. The only change I made to my computer prior to this computer was turning on FileVault. I have turned it off, but this has not resolved the issue. Neither has simply dragging the folder on the right to the icon on the left. I'm glad that my documents aren't gone, but can anyone advise as to how I can make my computer recognize this?
    Thanks!

    Hi Erin, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Do you mean the Documents in the Sidbar of the Finder Window?
    If that is the case, then drag the one that doesn't work, off to the left of the Sidebar, it'll go poof, then locate your Document folder and drag that to the Sidebar, but not on top of another icon there, as that'll move it to that location... Perhaps this is how it got lost in the first place?

  • Error message "The Volume for "IMG_5727.JPG Cannot be found.

    Help!
    I have been recieving the error:
    "The Volume for "IMG_5727.JPG Cannot be found.
    Insert the disk or connect to the server volume and
    wait for it to appear on the desktop, then try again."
    It has been happening for months but I am editing/moving
    wedding pictures(900 plus) right now and it is impossible to work around this. They are new images that were just down loaded from the card reader.
    I can see the pictures right in the library
    Help!
    Kathy

    You say you are "editing/moving" pictures from a wedding.
    Depending on what you mean by that, it could be creating the problem you're having.
    Are you physically "moving" your pictures within the finder, or do you just mean dragging and dropping within iPhoto?
    Usually, the way iPhoto works is you upload them into iPhoto from a card or some sort of volume.
    A new file is created in the iPhoto library.
    That file never leaves the library as it is now the actual link to iPhoto.
    However, if you physically move that file from the library, you will break the link and have lots of problems.
    You can't move files from the iPhoto library.
    However, if you're not physically moving photos from the library (manually, via the finder), and if you are uploading into iPhoto, and iPhoto shows you a thumbnail and when you click on it, it gives you that message, then there might be something wrong with the volume iPhoto thinks it's uploading pictures to from your card/source volume.
    I would reestablish a new volume to save to and see if it's still having the same problems. Make sure you backup the original library though.

  • IPhoto frustrating error..The volume for "Df23.JPG" cannot be found. It prompts for all photos with this issue rather than offering an option to ignore. I can find the images in spotlight but not in Find Photo. Does anyone have a solution

    iPhoto frustrating error..The volume for "Df23.JPG" cannot be found. It prompts for all photos with this issue rather than offering an option to ignore. I can find the images in spotlight but not in Find Photo. Does anyone have a solution?

    Unless you have the source files that were on the TC or Windows machine you will have to start over with a new library as follows:
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1.  Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    2. Open the library package like this.
    Click to view full size
    3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    4. Drag the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.  Your original library will remain intact for further attempts at fixes is so desired.
