Themes prior to iMovie 6 available?

Are themes from earlier versions of iMovie available to me as a user of iMovie 6? I didn't see them anywhere, but noticed that in iDVD, you can use themes from all the previous versionos of iDVD.

Terrabay,
"In laymen's terms, what is 'Quartz'?"
Quartz Composer is a development tool that can be used to create, among other things, iMovie themes.
It's freely available from Apple as are all of their development tools.
http://developer.apple.com/
I've played around with it and, as is the case with most development tools, it's really meant for, well, developers. It's not a consumer oriented application in the way that the iLife apps are.
When the first version of iDVD was released it came with a limited number of themes. Additional themes were released with subsequent versions.
I expect we'll see the same with iMovie.
Third parties will probably come up with their own as well.
"When you buy MS Powerpoint, it comes with at least 50 themes"
When you buy is right! iLife '06 came with your computer. Even so, I'd love to have more themes too. But I don't think I've yet exhausted the possibilities with the ones I have.
"Apple, please don't make me regret being a Mac convert."
If you feel strongly you should send your feedback to Apple.

Apps menu shows 5 updates available, but when I go to download them it says none are available

apps menu shows 5 updates available, but when I go to download them it says none are available. How do I remove that number?

Get some apps from someone else, perhaps? You can check by doing a "Get Info" on your apps; that will show the account under which they were purchased.
Oh, and just to clarify so I'm not barking up the wrong tree, what exactly is iTunes saying? Is it showing the number in the icon indicating that there are five apps to be updated but showing the screen that says "No updates are currently available"? Or is it giving an error message somethign like "the item you requested is not available in the iTunes Store"?

Hello rhdarby2,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information, take a look at:
iPod shuffle: Playing audiobooks and podcasts
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1831
Adding Audiobooks and Podcasts to iPod shuffle
The Autofill feature of iTunes will not add audiobooks and podcasts to any iPod model. They can be manually added by dragging them to the iPod shuffle in iTunes.
For iPod shuffle (3rd generation), you must enable Manually manage music in the Summary tab to drag songs to iPod shuffle. Additionally, you can automatically sync audiobooks using the Music tab and sync podcasts using the Podcasts tab in iTunes.
Have a nice day,
Mario

IMovie '11 available alone for $15 at new Mac App Store

To get to this you have to download the new Mac OS update (10.6.6)--something oddly not mentioned on the e-mail Apple sent out alerting people of the new site. Just use Software Update and an icon is placed in the Dock (and an Application called App Store is place in the Applications folder) when you install the update.

I wish they would make iMovie 06 available in the App Store. We sometimes have to pay over $100 for iMovie 06. That's a lot of money for teachers.

Many recommend installing updates separately as a downloadable file, this they claim makes the installation more stable for your system. I was skeptical about this procedure at first, however I've noticed that the repair permissions procedure goes much faster with fewer glitches.

I have been regularly receiving video tutorials from Addicted 2 Salsa and synching these to my iPod but recently I have been unable to do so. I overcame this problem in the past by making an ipod version or loading them on to iMovie and then sharing them but this method no longer works. THere is no problem viewing them on my computer and everything else synchs okay to the iPod so what is going on and how can I overcome this problem?

Double check to make sure podcasts are configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.
To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under theDevices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it. Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.
If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.
Otherwise, are you getting any error messages when you sync your iPod Classic with iTunes?

I accidentially deleted podcasts from 2010. I want to retrieve them, they are no longer available on line.

I was in ITunes, in my Podcasts list. I hit the icon (semicircle, with an arrow pointing clockwise) and all my podcasts were deleted. They were also deleted from my IPod. The podcasts were from 2010 and are no longer available in ITunes. Is there any way to retreive them?

I tried looking in i photo and other sites but none to be found.
Ok, the main thing is not to use the SD card or place anything on it.
The photo's are still there, not overwritten yet.
Here's a interesting set of posts I've found, read all of them and make a decision.
PhotoRec is not easy - requires terminal skills and Rosetta installed - does a good job - free
EXIF UnTrasher is free but has partial success
PhotoRescue by DataRescue is payware - does a good job
You need to LOCK your SD card (little slide switch) before connecting to the Mac or it tries to write a file on it and will overwrite some of your data your trying to recover.

Good Luck, I hope you get your files back

I copied my Movies folder using Finder to an external HD before my MBP crashed and now can't get them back into iMovie library!!

I realize NOW that I should have moved the events and projects to external HD within iMovie but unfortunately I didn't. I also upgraded to Mavericks with the new internal HD. Problems...
1) If I try and open a movie in iMovie from the Movies folder, none of the movies are highlighted so I cannot open them.
2) When I open a movie using Finder in the Movies folder, it goes through this conversion process with QuickTime player which takes several minutes (we have over 700 videos).
Anybody have any suggestions to fix this problem? I still have the Movies folder in both the external HD and on my internal HD.
Thanks in advance,
Sean

Can you change the theme color in iMovie for example from its current color of blue to red?

Can you change the color of a theme in iMovie ?- example: the sports theme is set to be blue and I would like it red.

No. And that would be nice in your type of example.
I would recommend that you could TRY to use the "Map, Background & Animatics" earth icon> (next to transitions tool tab), scroll down> add RED background, and ADD Transitions inside some. That might help your example out.
Hope this helps. Cheers

Is there anyway to use Keynote themes/transitions in iMovie HD6?

Having checked out the new beaut software of Keynote, I wondered why the same transitions cubes, page turns etc weren't available in iMovieHD6?
And woudl it be possible to access them and/or copy them across somehow?
Alexander

Is there a way for me to extract just the transitions from these trailers.
No there is not.
You could create a trailer, share it and then re-import and cut out just the pieces you want, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

Projects themes broken in iMovie 11?

Since upgrading to iMovie 9.0.9, I am now unable to get the project themes to work. I thought I may have had a messed up preference file, so I deleted everything... the app, all the preference files, etc. Reinstalled everything and still cannot get the project themes to work correctly. Is anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?

Sorry, I should have been paying closer attention when I posted this. The problem I am having is with the Movie Trailers under the Project Themes. When I select one, it NEVER loads in the preview box to the right of the trailers. I just get that white dial that keeps going around and around. What has happened?

Quicktime files get squished when I put them back in iMovie

I cannot for the life of me figure out why this is so. I am using quicktime pro in order to make a couple of "picture in picture" shots. Then I try importing the new clip into iMovie, but it doesn't look the same. Either one, two or all of the clips are squished together or not centered.
Does anyone have an idea why this may be so?

iMovie works natively in the DV compression format. So if you are playing around in QT Pro in some other format and them importing the files to iMove, they are being reconverted to DV compressed frames at specific frame sizes that may throw off any x/y-axis offsets you may have applied at other dimensions. In this case, it is generally best to do all your editing of individual clips in the editor, output the edited files in your targeted compression format, and then create your "picture-in-picture" scaled off-set display as the final step in QT Pro.

Has anyone had any of the iLife programs crash on them? especially imovie 6

Has anyone had any of the iLife programs crash on them?
I have had my new intel imac 20" for 2 weeks now and i like it a lot...
except I have been getting crashes on imovie (especially), and garageband.
I have had about 10 crashes total so far in about 2 weeks.
Is this sound normal?
thanks, technoreid

How much spare hard disc space have you got? ..Could your disc be so clogged that there's no room for any more movie?
You'll need about 10% of your total hard disc space - e.g; 6GB for a 60GB hard disc - to be kept empty for your Mac to do its "housekeeping" (..creating temporary files, indexing things, and so on..) and iMovie footage uses about 13GB per hour of video.
So if you have a 60GB hard disc, and it's only got 15GB spare, then 6GB of that will really be needed by the Mac itself, giving you about 9GB of usable space, and if you import half an hour of video (6GB) and start cutting it around and editing the audio too, and duplicating a few clips, and adding stills, you're soon going to run out of space!
If your Mac's disc is almost full, you'll probably need to get an external FireWire disc ..say a 160GB or similar size.. then format it as 'Mac OS Extended' (..by selecting that add-on disc and using the 'Erase' tab in the Disk Utility program..) and then you can copy your project over to that new, empty disc, and continue editing it there.

Missing theme elements in imovie HD 6

I am suddenly missing some theme elements. In the Travel theme I am missing Chapter One. I am also missing the Open element in both the Black and White Reflection Themes. In all three of these the drop zones are visible, I drop photos in but they do not show up when played. This occurred on both my iMac G5 and Mac Book Pro. Anyone with similar problems and can advise on how to get them back? I tried to reinstall but it did not fix the bug.

Hello, eppacker,
Welcome to the discussions!
Have a look at your System Library/Application support/iMovie/Themes. You should see the five themes listed as themename.bundle. If you don't see these, you should reinstall iMovie 6 (again).
If you see them, but they are not working in iMovie, try deleting iMovie's preference file.
Close iMovie, go to your Home Folder(YourUserName)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.imovie.plist
Drag this plist file to the Trash. Don't worry, iMovie will create a new one when you relaunch it.
Reopen iMovie.
If this does not help, do a 'Repair Permissions' on your computer's drive.
Close iMovie and open Disk Utility.
From the list of drives on the left, click once on your computer drive's name to highlight it.
Make sure Disk Utility's First Aid tab is selected.
Choose 'repair permissions'
Wait.
If anything needs to be repaired, say ok.
Keep doing 'repair permissions' until you see the message that the drive is fine and does not need repair.
Reopen iMovie and see if it is working ok now.
Post back if none of this helps.
