Using old version iMovie and import from new camcorder

I got a new camcorder which won't let me import to the old version 4.0.1 Does anyone have any idea how to move the clips to the old version from the 7.1.4 version which is sooo infuriating. The old one was soooo simple to use as I don't need 90% of the NEWER features. I also miss being able to turn one frame into a photo.

As an iLife '08 owner you are also entitled to a free download of iMovie HD v6.0.4 if you want it.
Does anyone have any idea how to move the clips to the old version from the 7.1.4 version which is sooo infuriating.
You can open the named_Event folder containing the iMovie '08 imported clips and "drag 'n drop" them to an open previous version of iMovie or you can open the previous version of iMovie, select the "Import" option, navigate to the named_Event folder, select the file(s) you want, and import it/them to the older application.
I also miss being able to turn one frame into a photo.
JPEG images are automatically created in the named_Project folder any time a single frame is selected/added to an iMovie '08 project. They can also be created by QT Pro ($30) or MPEG Streamclip (free) directly from a source video clip.

IMovie and Importing from a camcorder

I have a Canon Legria HV40 camcorder. I've many hours of documentary video footage recorded on MiniDV tape.
I am having an issue with transferring the footage to the Apple computer.
Frames are being lost when transferring footage. The frames that are lost are always (as far as I can tell) at the beginning and end of each clip. I'm not sure if clip is the right word here but I'm understanding a 'clip' to be created every time I start and stop recording on the camera.
I tried iMovie '09 (Full, recording to a FireWire HDD) and for every clip iMovie systematically loses the first half second to full second of the beginning and end of each clip as recorded on the camera.
I checked the playback on the camera and all of the information that should be there is there, and plays back on the LCD or on a TV without problem.
I tried QuickTime to see if behaved better; it did. Less seconds and frames were lost, but still some frames were lost.
I tried Final Cut Pro and the situation was better again. However still one or two frames at the beginning of some clips were lost.
Is this all normal? What am I doing wrong? Please help me, I'm desperate and have about 20 hrs of tapes to go through!
Thanks!!!

This is normal behaviour with said softwares.

IMovie and .mpg from Sony Camcorder??

Hi everyone! I am new to Mac... a recent Windows convert. I've had a Sony DCR-SR68 camcorder for awhile, and I would like to start using it with my iMac, but iMovie won't open the movies to allow me to edit. I believe they are .mpg movies. I also have some off of a digital camera that are .mts movies. What can I do? Can I get it to work, or do I need a new camcorder to make it easier? Thank you!
Josh

Right click any video clip, go to the bottom where services resides, go to encode video and chose your options. It works well, and converts .mpg files.

Transfer of albums from old version of photoshop to a newer

I have used version 4.0 of Photoshop elements previously. I have saved a copy of my old hard disk, including the installation of Photoshop 4.0, on an external hard disk drive. I would like to transfer my albums, tags etc from my old version of Photoshop to my new Photoshop 9.0 on my new computer. How can I do that? Photshop 9.0 was pre-installed on my new computer before delivery to me.

The normal method is to use the back-up and restore facility built into Elements. That is different to making a copy of everything. However the PSE4 database is different to the PSE9 database. If your old computer is still working it will probably be easier to install a copy of PSE9; then convert the old catalog to the PSE9 version. Then make a PSE9 back-up and use the TLY file within it to restore everything on to the new computer.

I want to upgrade my old airport express to the new express. Can I just switch out the old for the new or must I delete the old network first and start from scratch with the new express?

I want to upgrade my old airport express to the new express. Can I just switch out the old for the new or must I delete the old network first and start from scratch with the new express?

It is not necessary to delete your old wireless networks first, but doing so may eliminate confusion. If you wish to do that, open System Preferences > Network, and select Wi-Fi from the left column. Click the Advanced... button, then select your old wireless networks and delete them with the "–" (minus) button. Make sure the "Remember networks this computer has joined" remains checked.
OK then Apply.
This prevents your Mac from searching for your previous network which will no longer exist.
A new Express creates an open wireless network that you must select before you can configure it. It appears in your Wi-Fi menu like this:
Select it. AirPort Utility will load and walk you through its configuration.
Edit: If you are really using OS X 10.5.1 as shown in your profile, the above screenshot is not applicable. Instead, select the network called "Apple network nnnnnn" and then launch AirPort Utility.

IMovie and Importing video AVCHD from the Canon High-Definition HG10

iMovie 08 does not let me import high definition video (AVCHD) from the Canon HG10 camcorder. Could you let me know how I can do this or what program can do it? iMovie 08 and the Mac do not recognize the high definition video (AVCHD). Thanks for your assistance. Best, Joe

Your camera is on the supported list, and if you will search these forums, you will see that many people are using it.
iMovie recognizes AVCHD, but only from a supported and connected camcorder.
If you prefer not to import from your camcorder, you can buy a program called Voltaic. It takes about 12x realtime to convert AVCHD to an editable format. You can import directly from your camera much quicker.

Please see Huge lag in games on bootcamp as a reference. The linked thread is for a GT750m.
Since there are no mid-2013 Retina models (as per Apple - Support - Technical Specifications), assuming this is your Mac - MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) - Technical Specifications - the same should work for you.

Cannot update iMovie and iPhoto from Apple Store using Mountain Lion

Hi,
Everytime I try and update iMovie and iPhoto from the App Store I get an "an error has occured" followed by a "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (20)." I tried to download the update from the apple website, but much to my chagrin I was told "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store. Check the Mac App Store to see if an update is available."
Help anyone?
Thanks,

I have only had one AppleID ever. I do not have any other AppleIDs. My kids have thier own... and only one each for this very reason. Pick an ID and stick with it becuase it will be with you the life of ownership of Apple products.

I no longer have access to the email address used as my Apple ID and when I choose to answer security questions, my DOB had to have been originally entered incorrectly because it keeps failing. How do I get rid of my old Apple ID and create a new one?

Contact Apple, either through the link in that article or by phoning them. Alternatively, just create a new Apple ID; previous iTunes Store purchases won't be transferred to it.

I encountered a problem with some client machines that use Firefox version 24ESR and IE8.
Ajax requests of aspx pages from Firefox are getting the following error from the iis server (iis version 7.5):
Bad Request - Request Too Long
HTTP Error 400. The size of the request headers is too long.
From analyzing the request that was sent to the server, I saw that the request consist of only the viewstate of the aspx page.
I tried to disable the viewstate for one page and the server got the request correctly.
I do not encounter any issues on these laptops with postback requests from Firefox or when running the same application with IE8.

Sometimes that means that the page address sent is loo long.
Check the link address you are using.
I can't help you further and will send for more help.

Poor video from iMovie 11 imported from supported Sony HD camcorder

Poor video from iMovie 11 imported from supported Sony HD camcorder
Latest model New iMac 27 " screen 3.4 ghz intel core I7, 12 GB of memory running Mac OS X version 10.7.4
Imovie 11 version 9.0.7
New Sony hd camcorder model HDR560V, 64 gigs of internal flash memory, recording at highest quality hd settings.
Transfer is via USB.
Video in camcorder screen is perfect, same video connected directly from camera to a monitor is perfect. Also seems to be ok when importing into a Mac Book pro.
Import into the iMac using iMovie 11and played back full screen on the iMac has the look of soft VHS tape, not tack sharp and pronounced video lag when panning or when a subject moves across the screen. Has anyone else resolved a similar issue? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I paid for 3 years of Apple protection care but Genius bar experts at local Apple store are stumped.
thanks

I'm sorry, I didn't know Imovie has it's own Forum- it's not listed here. Looks like I need an adapter for memory card, because I have an older Mac which doesn't have a slot for the card.

HT204053 erase old apple ID and place a new due to expired old email

Hi to all. I have an apple ID in my iphone5 with which I have made my Apps purchases and it is also my Apple ID in icloud.The email of this ID has expired.Buing a new ipad and probably wrongly I did set on this ipad a new appleID with a new existing email.
Under this sircumstances I cannot transfer my purchase to the new ipad or i dont know how to do it.
In any case my question is can i erase somehow my old apple id and place my new in all my devices (iphone, imac. ipad) as i went
to appleid manage and tried to enter there my new email adress but it doesnt accept it since it says that it is already used.
I am a bit confused with all these and anybody who can help get out of this complicated situation please do. It will be highly appreciated.
Thank you all in advance

Unfortunately you created a new Apple ID with your new email address. Once you did that it can't be used with any other Apple ID. What you could have done was use the new email address for the old Apple ID and everything would have been fine.
I have not tested this, but another user has said that if you haven't really used the new Apple ID for anything and would be OK with abandoning it, that you can reclaim the new email address from the new Apple ID and resurrect your old Apple ID. This will only work if you are using 3rd party email addresses like [email protected]
1. Use these steps to change the new Apple ID to a fake email address just slightly different than your new email address.
Changing the email address you use for your Apple ID -

2. After you have used the above steps to change the new Apple ID to a fake email address, your new email address should be free to use with your old Apple ID following the same steps.

I recently had to send my old iPhone back and get a new one. When I did, I simply did a restore and backup with my computer. When I did that, my iMessage between my iPhone and iPad are no longer synced. No matter how many times I went to settings, messages and adjusted it, my iPad and iPhone recognize when I send a message out but not when I received a message from another IMessage user to my iPhone. My iPad simply doesn't get those messages. HELP!!!!

If it's corrupt, generally it would be lost.
However, there is third-party software out there that can retrieve some of the data, those of which however I could not recommend as I have never done so myself.
Also, if the old 4S was running a more recent software version than the current 4S, that may cause the issue however usually iTunes tells you exactly that.
Good luck in retrieving that information.

How to delete my old email address and install the new one on an HP 4480 all in one.

my HP 4480 uses my old email address to send scan to email.I need to delete the old email address and install my new one

des7931,
You should be able to go to your software on your computer and click on the >Scanner Actions section.
Then click on>Scan to E-Mail Wizard
This should bring up a screen to edit, change, or delete the stored email addresses for scan to email.
Let us know if you don't see this or still have problems.
If I helped you at all it would be great if you clicked the blue kudos star!
If I solved your post please mark it as solved to help others.

I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.
