Trouble deleting only rejected clips after imovie update

When i send rejected clips to the trash, it pulls more of the original video with it.  How can i keep this from happening? Only started with the new Mavericks update.

I've seen one suggestion relating to Revealing the Clip in the Finder. Try this:
Go to the Reject Clips by clicking on the pulldown menu at the bottom where it says Show: (choose Rejected Clips Only). Then <CTRL> click on on of the red striped thumbnails choose Reveal in Finder. When the Finder window launches, your clip will be highlighted. Select it and drag it to the trash.
Quit iMovie, then relaunch it and go back to the Show: (Rejected Clips Only) see if that clip is now missing from the list of Rejected Clips. If this works and your Project file still plays back successfully I would say it's safe to continue deleting as needed. But if you have some problems and the Project has been affected there might be another reason you cannot delete the clips.
iPhoto Videos are not deletable in the traditional iMovie Rejected Clips kind of way. They are under full control and jurisdiciton of iPhoto. And as a result, iMovie is not allowed to do anything other than 'copy' or re-use them in a Project. Deletion of iPhoto Videos in iMovie will not work. So your only real option is to try deleting them from iPhoto instead. So just be aware of where your video clips are located in the iMovie Event Library and everything should be OK.

  • Hallo!!  how can i delete a rejected clip in iMovie 10.0.7?? Or is it not possible??

    Hallo!!  how can i delete a rejected clip in iMovie 10.0.7?? Or is it not possible??

    You can delete a complete clip which is not in use in any project by right-clicking it and choosing "move to trash".  It won't actually appear in the trash can but will be permanently deleted when you quit iMovie.

  • Delete parts of clips in iMovie Version 10.0

    Does anybody know how to delete only a part of a clip, not the entire clip, in iMovie version 10.0?  When I try to delete a part of a clip, the entire clip is deleted. 

    I'm having the same issue.  Can't trim clips at all.  The directions listed here http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14696?viewlocale=en_US are excatly what I'm trying to do, only when you hit return after dragging the edges to trim the clip, nothing happens at all.  And Alan's suggestion doesn't work for me either, "Split Clip" isn't an option when I right click.  All of these worked in the prvious version of imovie.

  • Can't get rid of rejected clips in iMovie 11.

    I've read other posts relating to this issue - some dating back to iMovie 08 - and tried everything suggested but so far nothing works for me.
    I am running very low on space but can't seem to delete events or rejected clips. I've tried just deleting very short clips but even that doesn't work. all I get is a bar quickly coming up as if to show progress in deleting the clips but it disappears very quickly and nothing has been deleted.
    Seems strange that the same problem can be an issue in that many versions of iMovie.
    Please help, anyone.
    Thanks

  • Old deleted pics always reinstalled after an update

    Hi
    Every time I update my phone I always do a back up first via iTunes and have to do the update via iTunes because I have a 5C with 8GB and can only update through iTunes because of lack of storage space.
    The problem is, after the update, when my phone restores from the back up it always includes these old pictures from ages ago that I deleted ages ago.
    I have checked iCloud online and deleted everything, and what is left is this
    I think the old photos that keep reinstalling are in that 90.07KB but I cannot find a way of deleting them.
    They aren't on my iTunes, when I go to iCloud.com nothing is there.
    If I go to iCloud drive it says it is empty
    I've been through iCloud on my phone and nothing there either.
    My question is, how do I locate these old pictures and delete them permanently?
    Thanks for any help you may offer

    As I said earlier, I don't believe there are any photos stored on the device. Again, I believe this to be folder instructions, since you use photo stream. It could be instructions for who shares the photo stream, etc. The amount of data you report, and show in the photo is very small.
    If it is worrying you that much, restore the device as new, and sync back your content manually, without using a backup. This would remove any content there may be on the phone and any other settings dealing with the photo library.

  • Question About Deleting Parts Of Clips and iMovie Trash

    Hi,
    Why are small deleted portions of clips not moved to the trash, where you can recover them? It looks like if you want to delete small sections of individual clips, those deletions cannot be recovered once the project is saved. Am I missing something?

    Hmmm. Something doesn't sound quite right. When I delete a portion of a clip here — after splitting a clip, for example — the deleted portion goes in the iMovie trash. To retrieve the clip I can just drag it from the Trash window back to the Timeline or Clips pane.
    That's not how it's working for you? Are you using iMovie 6?
    There is another way to retrieve the clip, which relies on iMovie's non-destructive editing feature. It is useful when you've used Direct Trimming to shorten a clip, which does NOT send the deleted portion to the Trash. (There is no clip for the trimmed portion.) It's also useful after you've emptied the iMovie Trash, which removes a split clip, but does NOT remove the clip's source file.
    That is to Option-drag the shortened clip to some other location (Option-dragging creates a copy) then select the clip and choose Advanced > Revert Clip to Original. That reverts that clip to its original length. Depending on the editing you've done to the clip, it may be necessary to select the menu command more than once.
    Otherwise, I can't think of what might cause it to work differently for you.
    Please say how you are creating the clip that is deleted. Is it a split clip?

  • Unable to delete some app's after lollipop update

    Hi! After I updated my Z2 to lollipop today, I moved some app's to my sd card. I was not aware that it was not working properly.
    Later I saw that the app's I moved cannot be opened or even deleted and when I reinstall them again they don't even show up. Can someone help me pls! I have attached a screenshot also.

    I would think that your sd card it's corrupted, what if you re-install lollipop but this time clear everything

  • How to move to the trash rejected clip from iMovie

    HI,
    I have tried countless time to move rejected clips to the trash in iMovie 08.  I know I am taking the correct steps, it is pretty simple and staright forward but iMovie doesn't move the rejected clip to the trash any longer, it has done it in the past though.  Any one has a suggestion?
    Tahnk you,
    Lygio

    Is this what you have been doing?
    right click on the iMovie event, go to the bottom (or where it says "move rejected clips to trash") and click it.

  • Can't reject clips from IMovie anymore, what did I do?

    In the bottom section when I highlight and click on reject clip, it does nothing.  Was working fine, until recently.  Did I push something?  Anyone know how to fix this, beginning to be a real pain when I can't remove it.  Stays there even when I start a new project.  Please help!

  • Effects missing from clips after PP update

    I have asked this question before, but nobody responded with any useful suggestions.  Let me try again.
    I spent an incredible amount of time keyframing Beauty Box effects on a timeline in Premiere Pro 8.0 during fall 2014.  When I upgraded to 8.1, all the effects are simply gone from the timeline.  To be clear, there are no "missing effects" messages; they are just gone.
    Beauty Box is still installed and is an effect I can add to my clips with ease, but somehow, the update stripped all the effects off the timeline when it the project is updated to the new version.
    Luckily, there is one machine at work that is still on 8.0 and recognizes my old project correctly.  But - PP crashes literally every single time I try to adjust the Beauty Box effects that I spent many, many hours tweaking already.
    Exporting an AAF also doesn't work: PP crashes every single time I try.
    Short of adding the effect all over again to every clip and starting from scratch, is this a known issue to Adobe and is there a solution?  I hesitate to upgrade Beauty Box, as updating any software in the middle of a project is a bad idea (see above).
    And here are bonus issues: I use a Saffire Pro 14 for audio on my system.  Everything was fine until the other day, when it stopped playing AIFs. If I try to import one and place it in the source monitor, everything locks up and PP crashes.  There have been no hardware or software updates in these areas for literally months (aside form "upgrading" to the latest PP version about a month or so ago).  The files play normally outside of PP.  The solution to this, I found after a good bit of experimenting, is to switch to the Adobe audio driver.  But why?
    Also, I have a two monitor system.  The right monitor is my program view.  I usually set it nearly full screen (but not quite).  Suddenly, it started taking up the entire screen with no borders (and no accessible controls) yesterday.  I can't find a command to restore it to normal.  (~ doesn't do it).
    Another frustrating issue: warning boxes that normally appear on top of everything onscreen have begun appearing behind other PP windows, giving me the annoying system error noise whenever I try to touch anything.  the only way I have found to reveal them is to switch to another program then toggle back to PP.
    All of this has made it virtually impossible for me to get any work done on this project. Gotta say I'm not loving PP right now.er literally a month,
    Message was edited by: Charles Mumford
    UPDATE - after literally a month, all my missing effects re-appeared on my timeline tonight.  Why?  Who knows?  But I'm glad they're back.

    I have almost the same problem.  As a workaround, I can check "sync all music" rather than "sync checked music" in iTunes.  (By the way, it worked for a couple weeks and now it doesn't).  I'm fortunate that all my music fits on my touch (though just barely).  The only album that still exists on my ipod (officially anyways) is one that I bought from iTunes after upgrading.
    Also, I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I haven't figured out how to make that work (they disappeared too).
    Anybody know how to get back to a position where I can decide what I want for music and don't have to put everything on my touch?

  • Why is my iPhone 5 skipping/not playing any of my songs in an mpeg-1 layer 3 file format? This only started happening after I updated to iOS 8.

    I'm getting really upset with this ridiculous nonsense!! Ever since that lousy upgrade to iOS 8, mind you I did not get the worthless recalled iOS 8.0.1 update, my phone has been freaking out. Glitching and freezing are now common place and my apps, which I have never had a problem with in the past, are now crashing without warning. To top it all off my phone, which has had NO problems in this area before iOS 8, is all of sudden skipping and now deleting all of my mpeg-1 layer 3 music files without my consent!! This leads me to assume that the only two explanations are 1) this is just a huge screw up on Apples part and now several of their technical lackeys are feverishly working to get a reasonable working update out and to quell a lot of unnecessary headaches like mine and many others OR 2) Apple is now forcing our hand in purchasing songs only in their own personal format, MP4 I believe it is. Either way, I'm more than a little ****** off and I'm sure Steve Jobs is rolling over in his grave at the large amount of excrement disguised as Apple products and operating systems his beloved company is dumping on it's faithful customers.

    Try
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > Sign out then sign back in.
    Assuming you have Internet connection to the Internet.

  • Video imported as only one clip on iMovie 08

    I imported video from a Canon Elura 100 that consisted of many clips(100+) that showed up as only one long clip. I found info that suggested that it could be that the camera's date and time wasn't set. I tried another DV tape (camera's date & time is set) with the same result. Any suggestions on what went wrong and is there an easy way to separate into clips?

    I imported video from a Canon Elura 100 that consisted of many clips(100+) that showed up as only one long clip.
    Strange how you complain about getting a single file while others are complaining that their content is broken into dozens if not hundreds of segments.
    Any suggestions on what went wrong and is there an easy way to separate into clips?
    Have no idea why you have been so "blessed" or "cursed" (depending on you point of view) but see no real difference in editing other than an individual's personal point of view when it comes to managing the content as source material. iMovie will handle the content equally well whether the project resource pointers point to various segments of a single long file or to separate segments in separate files. If you have to physically separate your files, you can always trim and segment the raw files any way you want to dispose of the dross you will never need or use. I would not, however, recommend using a physical/file destructive work flow within iMovie '08 as it is a bad habit to get into if you ever work with anamorphic source material (i.e., you can lose your flag and iMovie with thereafter treat your files as 4:3 content).

  • Troubles in dual boot system after BIOS update

    Hello:
    PC: Thinkpad T500
    1. I had for one year Linux Fedora 10 and Vista Ultimate working in dual boot with Grub, no problems at all.
    Three days ago Lenovo support recommended I update my BIOS from 2.07 to 3.12, as I had some intermitent Sleep problems in Vista. Then my problems started.
    2. First, after updating the BIOS from Vista (dowloaded the exe, double clicked it, gone through the whole sequence with no errors), upon the first restart, the screen was black and I couldn't get in BIOS with F1 and the same happened during other power-off/power on sequences.
    3. Now, I've discovered that the best I can do is wait for 10 min after restart in order to get a prompt from ThinkVantage, then Grub boots only the Linux system which works OK.
    4. I can't get the dual boot message from Grub, and I can't get any Windows DVD to be taken at boot (I've got full backups from both Control Panel and from ThinkAdvantage backup facility) in order to ru Windows repair.
    5. I can go during the ThinkAdvantage to BIOS, the new version seems there (not sure if completely operational), but whey can't I see it with F1?
    Is the presence of ThinkAdvantage something special in dual-boot systems or wrt to the BIOS install? Should I do something special about it? I just don't know.
    Any ideas?

    Strange.  I don't have a clue, but I have seen posts here that recoverd from strangeness after a BIOS update by unplugging from the AC mains, removing the battery, and then pressing the power button several times.  The last time, hold the button for 10 seconds or so.
    That is really a total WAG, but maybe worth a try.
    Out of curiousity, what do you see when grub finally loads.  I take it that it isn't your original boot menu.  Do you have grub installed in the MBR, the boot sector of the Linux partition, or both?  Is the Linux partition (or Linux boot partition if you have boot + root) the 1st one on the drive, or _after_ the vista partition.
    [edit] You didn't ask, but IMNSHO multibooting a modern laptop isn't really the easiest way to run multiple OSs.  I run Linux, Solaris, and OS X in VMs under Win 7 on my T400.  They run well, and that approach avoids issues like you are having.  The Lenovo ThinkVantage boot-time stuff and R&R are rather fragile.  Changes in partitioning and MBR configuration can break them.   BIOS and other updates, and Windows repairs can break the multi-boot setup.
    There are several ways to set up VMs, but VMWare Player is what I use.  The latest version is free and quite usable.
