Hey Lennart, that link you gave was so helpfull, thanks a lot. I found this.
Follow these steps to reinstall iMovie, iPhoto, and iTunes from your Restore DVD disc:

Insert the Software Install and Restore DVD disc. Do not start up the computer from this disc.
From the Go menu, choose Go to Folder.
Do one of the following, depending on the type of computer the Restore DVD disc is for:

Where did my imovie project go?

Apologies, this is probably so fundamental - but I tried searching for the above string and nothing came up.
I was working on an iMovie Project. I was saving it regularly ('Save Project'). But where to?
I thought it was in a folder. It's not there. In fact, searching my system for a file with .imovieproject an an extension, or the name of the project, came up with nothing.
Am I supposed to 'Save As' somewhere else?
I did find a copy in the Finder trashcan but it's an old version.
I tried closing iMovie, and opening it, and it loaded the project.
However, opening iMovie subsequently just asks me for a new or existing project.
What did I do? I went ahead and exported it to iDVD but it would be nice to have the original...
Thanking you for your esteemed patience...
Lynette

Thank you all for being so welcoming! (Egad, my social life in Eugene, OR has been so tragic for 4 years I'm tempted to just hang out in front of this forums from now on. If my job didn't entail e-convoing with tons people on all day that might be half appealing ... ).
I found the movie in the trashcan. I have no idea how it got there. I do know Apple has this annoying habit of bringing up some folder you used in the distant past to save in which has nothing to do with where you want to put it now - you have to watch it ...
I have a couple more... but I guess I should go and ask them under iDVD. See you soon... in case you want to see what I do to try and get a life, my link below has lots of little movies...

Where did my imovie files go

when I opened imovie a window came out to upgrade to imovie08 so i did and after I upgraded and opened the new version I now can not open my imovie files from the previous imovie version....Did I lose my files? I see them in my movies folder but they only open with quickplayer/time....Please help

Thank you very much! Now I have another question...I just bought a Sony camcorder HD SR11...via email through BestBuy and I was told that I would not be able to import my movies to my IMac because Sony's software does not support Mac so they told me to buy Adobe Premier Elements 4.....so I did..I have not tried it yet because I have not received the camera yet but I do not want to open it and pay a restocking fee if it is not going to work.....Is it going to work or should I just exchange the camcorder for another one that is compatible with Mac...and if so any brands I should keep in mind??????

Where did my iMovie projects go in mavericks

I just bought this iMac and migrated everything (I thought) from my 2006 iMac running 10.6.8.
First thing I discovered is that there is no media browser in mavericks. That means all my iMovie projects are gone unless they are hidden somewhere. I looked in iTunes but do not see them there.

Hi all, my first time on. I shared my imovie project to Media Browser. Fine. Then after it downloaded it 'disappeared.' Where did it go? Having found it, how do I then share it with idvd? I am told the image quality will be much better this route.

Hi
I do
• In iMovie - select a project
• Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD or other res.)
• Close iMovie
• Open iDVD and select to start a New iDVD Project
• Import movie - from Media button - down to the right - and here from Movies

Where did the Home Video tab go?

I have a MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009) running Yosemite 10.10.2 and iTunes 12.1.50. I also have about 900+ home videos taken by my various cameras and encoded using HandBrake or iMovie over the last 10 years. 30 of these movies have been on my phone for over a year and I regularly watch them.
I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS8.2 last night by doing a restore as if a new device. This was recommended by a tech at the Apple Store since so much of my phone's 16GB was taken up by the operating system. After that, I suddenly had more than 3GB more free space. Yay!
But - right away, I noticed that only 3 of my 30 home videos had synched. I had those 30 in a special playlist so I wouldn't have to sort through the other 870+. I decided to remove them from the iPhone and try again, but it didn't work. So, I decided to remove them from the playlist and add them again. That's when I noticed that I cannot find the Home Videos tab in iTunes on my Mac anymore. It was there earlier last night because I had just added new ones to iTunes (visual confirmed they were in the Home Video tab once added to library). I tried to import all 900+ home movies, and it seemed to do something - but I still can't see them.
I tried to search for "Home Video" in the iTunes help menu - no hits. I always use "Home Movies Favourites" as the Genre for the 30 I put on my phone, so I tried searching for that in the movie search box. Nothing found again. I tried searching for individual file names. Nothing.
So - where did Home Videos go and how can I get it back? My files are still on the hard drive, but I have spent hundreds of hours updating the tags in iTunes with irreplaceable info like dates, locations, memories, etc.
Apple - please stop making such drastic changes to iTunes every time we just finish getting used to your other changes!

Hello! I said... I want the ability to input analogue video into my camcorder so I can continue to transfer VHS and input and record video from other sources. The new HD cameras on the market will not allow you to record video from any source except for the lens.
I have HD cable box. I want to record my HD programs from cable (HBO, Starz, etc) to my camera, download the video to my Mac from the camera and then edit them in iMovie and create professional looking movie DVD's in iMovie.
iMovie HD can work with mini DV HD cameras and HD video. I was not aware of a system requirement for working with HD content.

Where did the analogue in feature go?

Where did the analogue in feature go?
None of the HD cameras I have searched for have a analogue input. In fact, I have found only one MD camera that has that capability.

I BOUGHT & downloaded MPEG 2 QT component, where did it go?

I bought & downloaded MPEG2 QT component in order to use for editing video from a DVD with home movies that had been converted from tapes. When I put on computer it was .cdr which could not be used in iMovie. I need to convert to one that will work. I also got MPEG Streamclip, both on advice from a forum discussion. My question is, where did it go on my computer? I have searched with Spotlight & it wasn't found.

If your response was meant for me...
I looked into Macintosh>system>library>QuickTime & found 17 items.
Apple GVAHW.component
Apple Pixlet video.comp
Apple ProRes Decoder.comp
Apple VAH 264 HW.comp
Quartz Composer.resources
QuickTime 3GPP.comp
QT Components.comp
QT Fire Wire DV.comp
QT IIDC Digitizer.comp
QT H264.comp
QT Importers.comp
QT MPEG.comp
QT MPEG2.comp
QT MPEG4.comp
QT Streaming.comp
QT USB VDC Digitizer.comp
QT VR.comp
If "QT MPEG2.comp" refers to this component:
Then it would appear that you indeed have the correct component installed in the proper location.
I then brought up MPEG Streamclip beta & put my DVD in drive. I found Video_TS folder & dragged the .VOB files into Streamclip & when finished, I used FILE/Export using QT to convert files to Apple Intermediate Codec Component (which I saw in Library/QuickTime & also Apple MPEG2 codec.component). I chose to rename file clip & saved it. I opened iMovie & tried to import the file I just saved but they were gray, not black & would not import.
Made a quickie clip of what I do in MPEG Streamclip. Basically, this includes:
1) Dropping one or more non-zero VOB file for a single or multiple titles to the main MPEG Streamclip window.
2) Fix timecode breaks and set in/out points if needed.
3) Select desired export settings (in this case AIC video at 80% quality with uncompressed audio using default settings).
4) Set name and path for target output file.
When the conversion is finished, I test playback in the QT 7 player and add the file to iMovie if needed. Here is a 4 minute video I made minutes ago demonstrating my work flow. If you can't do this, then there is either problem with your computer, its software configuration, or Lion OS 10.7.4 has broken the normal work flow and this is yet another issue with the latest update to be reported to Apple.

Where did I loose my movie

I have made a movie at length 31 min. The size is 1.19 GB, but when I copy it in explorer from iPhone folder to PC folder the size left is 0KB. Where did 1.19 GB go? What happens? The file is stored as a .MOV, but empty and not playable. Frustrated!

I choosed to accept lower quality through the transfering in the Awesome app/iPhone explorer. The Awesome app is automatically compressing the files.
As far as I can read 'Awesome app' just zips the files.
iPhone Explorer just copies files, it does not compress or re-encode files.
Are you saying that the video was HD, but was made smaller when exported?
The more I think about this the more I think it is your computer.
If the video plays fine on the iPhone, then it should transfer off fine and at the same resolution it was created at.
So my guess is that your computer is messing up the files.
Once you've tried to get the videos off on another computer tell me how it goes.
I really recommend wifi photo transfer:
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wifi-photo-transfer/id380326191?mt=8
This creates a webserver out of your iPhone, and any one on the same wifi network can access the photos and video.
This app can export and preview smaller photos, but will transfer the full resolution videos.
If you shot in 720P HD, then edited in iMovie, then exported full size, you will have a 720P video at the end.

I have cropped a clip and now want to take other clips from the remaining footage. But the discarded footage which contains other desirable clips is not in Trash. So, where did it go so I can access it?

I don't know how it did it (because I cannot duplicate the results) but one time the finder found a folder on my main hard drive called/Volumes Under that folder are folders called the names of previous external hard drives with numbers following them. /Volumes does not appear on my Mac hard drive. Obviously it is hidden somewhere. But it has content. Most of the time, the file names in that content don't show up in a search, but obviously I have found the content and deleted one huge folder of stuff it has saved. When I found the folder, I immediately opened it, where I found this stuff. But unfortunately when it opened in the search window I went directly to the "drive" folder and had no back arrow, so I couldn't get back to the search that found the content and the mystery /Volumes folder. The finder information window does show /Volumes directly off of the main drive (its not in any other folder). Anybody know where this stuff is hidden or how to get to it.

Just installed ilife 11 and it deleted my movie project, where did it go

Just installed ilife 11 and it deleted my movie project from the old version, where did it go

Installing iMovie will not cause a project to be deleted, so it is probably there somewhere.
What version of iMovie did you have before? Is everything on your internal drive, or do you have external drives?

Where did iDVD go?

Where did iDVD go? How do I access iDVD? I used to just drag my mp4's straight into iDVD and create my DVD's but it is no longer available. Help!

Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD. I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, and others. 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.

Where did my iLife apps go?

My Mini froze up, and nothing would fix it except for wiping the disk and reinstalling everything. Unfortunately my iPhoto, iMovie, and iDVD apps are now gone (Along with a huge iPhoto library). I managed to recover my iTunes library from my video iPod with TinkerTool, but where did my iApps go? I've never paid for iLife because I had everything I wanted from the beginning (OS X 10.0). The disk I bought to reinstall everything was OS X 10.4 (Yes, I had to run Software update all day yesterday).
Am I going to have to shell out $79.00 just for iPhoto? I've never even opened iMovie, iDVD, or Garage Band (Only vaguely even know what most of them do, and Garage Band is a 100% mystery to me. Sounds like a useless, cheap, disk space hog to me).
Is there anyplace I can just get iPhoto without all of the other useless stuff?
I can't believe Apple would charge extra for something that is more useful than iTunes, and that I got free from the time it first came out.
TIA,
George Pepper BM MM

The version of iPhoto you own is the version that came with your system - it is on the original system restore disks that came with your computer and you should be able to install it from there - what OS and version of iPhoto came with your computer? click here for the MacWorld article on installing applications from your restore disks.
As to your purchasing iPhoto alone - no - it comes only as apart of new computers or as a part of iLife

HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 color M551 Printer Series PCL6 Print Driver (no Installer) 61.130.04.12834
24 Sep 2014 21.3
I get the file downloaded (LJEnt-color-M551-Drv-no-installer_12297.exe), i run it, get the security warning and Run. the file extracts - then POOF, the installer is gone.
where did the files go? They aren't on the root of the C: drive, a folder/files were not created on my desktop, no files or folder created in my downloads folder.
I was never asked for a file save location.... ??? really? is this this basic stuff?
Where are the files? this $$$ printer is a brick until i get drivers!
Thanks!

UPDATE- I FOUND THE FILES!!
First of all, HP... i'm not impressed.
All the files for all the drivers are in a series of temp folders...
C:\Users\-myusername-\AppData\Local\Temp\3\7zS4A73
really?
hope this helps someone.

There is no change to this problem after 6 months since the last post. Put simply, and as stated in the previous posts, there is no way to scan a document and receive the image on your PC. If you are working with graphics for any length of time or want to create an image for inclusion as an image in a document or web page using this piece of equipment will not allow you to do so.
Great shame as every other function works well - it cannot be beyond the wit of HP to include a Windows application that enables you to scan an image, receive it in the software you are using at the time (e.g. Outlook, Word, Photoshop...) and use it in your work.
HP Printers several years older than this £1000+ Enterprise printer were able to do this simple job and have done so for a great many years. Just being able to use Microsoft's Fax and Scan would be start.
