Where is the optimization feature for iMovie 10.0.6?

In the older iMovie, when you imported a movie into your project using iMovie's File >> Import >> Movies... there was an "Optimize Video" checkbox that could be checked or unchecked. Is there a way to do this in the new iMovie? I have a snowfall over a black backdrop clip that I'm trying to lay over my movie. The idea is for just the snow to appear over the movie. The black will only disappear and act transparent if the clip is NOT optimized. Any ideas? Solutions?

  • Where is the optimize video for iMovie 10??

    Hi,
    I have HV20 HDV camcorder with bunch of older tapes.  I had iMovie (8 or 9) before where I used to get specific options for importing the tapes.
    For example, I could choose save location, add to or create new event, split days into new events, and optimize video.
    Now under the new iMovie 10, I don't see most of the above options.  And before you say use the older iMovie, I've looked under the application folder and I can't find the older iMovie folder.. Just the new version 10...
    So I Need the:
    1. Split days as new event
    2. Optimize video option. (So that I can make sure I'm importing the maximum quality/ full/original size not a lower bit rate.)  How do I know the new iMovie is importing the highest quality and not downsampling as the older iMovie had other bitrate options..
    Please tell me where I can find the older iMovie 9 to download and install (again, I can't find it in my application folder), or tell me where I can find those options in the new versions.
    Thank you

    I agree but it's not there...
    I know what it should do but the reality is something else at this point.
    Any other suggestions?
    Do you know if iMovie 10 just imports at the highest possible resolution? I don't know why iMovie 9 had the option and now the new one doesn't...

  • Where is the back feature for returning to the page i was previously on...no matter where i look i cant find it

    I am using the Mozilla Firefox as my browser. But everytime I open a new window, I am unable to navigate back to the previous page. It is so frustrating to not be able to use a back arrow.
    Where is this feature hidden?>????

    In the stupidly hidden user's Library->/Application Support/AddressBook/ labeled as AddressBook-v22.abcddb
    For TM restores, see Pondini's TM FAQs for starters, since I don't use TM.

    If something like this already exists, please let me know.
    I often wish when I select a word to right click and choose dictionary to to find out the meaning of the word. Currently I have to copy, go to a dictionary web page, paste and search. And I spent a lot of time for that. I'm not that technically oriented to suggest how this can be achieved but just as an idea, may be Mozilla can partner with dictionary web sites by making a plug ins or include a dictionary with Firefox itself

    I am sure there are Extensions that do this.

  • New to PE 12. Where is the "Browse" feature?

    I had to get a new computer to replace my XP unit before MIcrosoft support ended and this meant an upgrade to PE 12. Prior to this upgrade I was using PE 2.0 (What can I say, PE 2.0 was great software and it worked flawlessly for many years).
    Problem: Where is the "Browse" feature on PE 12?  I don't want to "Import" photos into collections, I just want to manipulate, move, and edit my photos straight from my computer's File Manager like I did on PE 2.0. I use a version of Photoshop CS for work and it offers "Adobe Bridge" that offers this functionality.  Is there a function like this on PE 12?
    Any info would be appreciated.  Thanks much!

    PSE12 comes with Organizer, not a browser. However you don’t need to use Organizer. Simply continue with Bridge and right click on thumbnails and choose:
    Open With >> Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor 12.0

  • Where is the user manual for Adobe Digital Editions?

    Where is the user manual for Adobe Digital Editions?

    Thanks to you both for your replies.
    I should have explained that I have already seen 'Getting Started with Adobe Digital Editions', an epub document that comes with the software.  It is only nine pages long, more of a quick guide than a manual. I had expected that there would be more to the software than is covered there.  Perhaps there isn't.  (To explain a little further: I was looking for a way to cause epub pages to print or display like the pages of the original book, but couldn't find anything about printing beyond.  That feature is present in the Bluefire Reader for iOS devices.  I tried printing a particular page using Ctrl+P and specifying the page number.  The page printed, but it was spread over two sheets of A4 paper and the page number was not printed.) 

  • Where is the download link for SCEP Client Offline installer for x86 & x64 altest greatest version (4.6.305 as of today)

    Where is the download link for SCEP Client Offline installer for x86 & x64 latest greatest version (4.6.305 as of today)?
    The answer IS NOT IT AND NEVER WILL BE "DOES NOT EXIST"!!!!!! MUST NEVER NEED TO RUN UPDATES TO GET IT!!!!!!!!! THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE ANSWER IS THE LINK!!!!! DUH GET YOUR ACT IN GEAR MS!!!!!!!!!!
    Ralph

    Thanks to all for the information. I work in higher ed. We have SCCM latest version, fully licensed. Unfortunately the individual who manages the SC does not have a clue as to where to find the SCEP installer. I sent him links from MS that shows him where
    it is supposed to be. The version he say's is on our SC Management server is 4.3. I, in the past, was able to get 4.5 independent of him and it has been working well for me but it is time to use the latest greatest version instead. I should just as easily
    be able to get 4.6. As far as licensing goes, if the product was correctly designed it should just work itself out just like it does for the 4.5 version I was able to easily find and download.
    As for the link given by KevinMJohnston, thanks by the way, its the closest I have come to getting what I need but all I get is a spinning wheel in Firefox, the only browser one should ever need. In IE I get prompted for an email address, which it should
    NEVER EVER DO!!!!!!!!!! I did give them my address, but alas, after waiting over 30 mins. I still don't have a link to the update or the CU4 Config MGR update mentioned. (Another reason I am not very nice to MS, along with, see below...) Please send me the
    link that they are suppose to send me in the email.
    As for the intensity of the request it comes from not being able to find the update on my own. (Amongst a million other complaints as MS makes my job harder and harder, just think of all the lost productivity and extra repair efforts needed because MS stopped
    allowing you to do upgrade/repair installs from the install discs. You have to have a working OS to do it, or you will lose your settings etc and will have to re-install all of your software etc. How STUPID IS THAT! Can't use it to fix a blown driver or BSOD
    problem like you could in XP.  There is no excuse for that, I know better. So you can see why I have nothing good to say about MS etc etc.) There is no excuse for that! If the MS updater has it available then IT MUST BE MADE AVAILABLE FOR STANDALONE DOWNLOAD
    PERIOD. That goes for ALL updates PERIOD.  I use these updates and many others etc so that once I seal an image for a PC it has the latest greatest version of everything. It is quicker to get it stand alone in advance and installing than waiting for MS
    updates to do so. Also I prefer to config my images so that the Av installs after first boot. These are cloned PCs. Many of these PC are used in labs and are frozen. Here, the settings for the SCEP AV being pushed from above can cause major problems for the
    users i.e. the scheduled scan feature. If it is on when students are taking tests and they take more than 5 or 10 mins on question MS is stupid enough to start scanning causing the system to become unresponsive. This has caused students to breakdown in tears
    thinking the system is hosed and they just lost their tests. I have to do some creative reg hack, setting owner as "Guest", a disabled account, etc. to keep these settings from being changed. (Our SC managers push policies that work for the faculty
    but break the lab systems which are frozen, so I have to out hack them, should not be, but it is, we are trying to get that fixed, but bureaucracy and people afraid to share power etc makes it hard.)  These settings unfortunately will prevent the AV from
    installing so I need to be able to manually do it after I have set the reg to allow it.  And I could go on. Who knows when or why someone may need to do a manual update of something. I just had 3 systems fail 12 updates, yet when I manually downloaded
    them and installed them they ALL installed without failure. I did NOTHING in between the auto update and the manual, yet it was the manual way that worked. Maybe if MS could fix those kind of issues then no one would need to get stand alone update files.)
    That is not for MS to worry about. It is, however, their responsibility to make it so that I can choose what will work best for my environment, which only I could know. DUH. I have had issues in the past with MS AV and other brands being installed before "sealing"
    the images. etc. etc. etc.
    As you can see, there is not enough space on the world wide web to list all thousands of legitimate reasons to give Microsoft a hard time so I will do so on a case by case bases knowing I am probably spitting in to the wind, but hey somebody has to have
    the guts to do it. MS MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO SIMPLY GET AWAY WITH IT! They Must be called to the proverbial carpet.
    Maybe if people who are MVPs would not be afraid to join the choruses they would be embarrassed, (though it should be done out of moral obligation not embarrassment), enough to fix these obviously fixable problems etc. etc. etc. I have over 30 years in the
    IT business, the IBM XT did not exist until my senior year in college. You are not going to be able to convince me that there is a legitimate reason, copy protection IS NOT IT, to prevent me from fixing blown OS via re-install using install disc when OS will
    not boot. Nor are you going to be able to find legitimate reason for the SCEP 4.6.305 update to be so hard to get.
    Thanks again for the help, still waiting for email from MS, NOT COOL MS! NO EXCUSE!!!!!

  • Where is the Download Booster for the Samsung Galaxy S5?  It's advertised in your pamphlets your stores are handing out...

    Where is the Download Booster for the Samsung Galaxy S5?  It's advertised in your pamphlets your stores are handing out but yet the software feature appears to be hidden or worse yet stripped out of the phone altogether .  This blatant false advertising...Please advise!

    It is (My Guess) something in the fine print that says "Subject to change without notice" VZW did some similar things with the S4 and customers were very unhappy with that as well.  With those features I think some we enabled later when they sent out a software update and said nothing about it.  They also added a feature which they said nothing about and that feature was enabled for everyone as default and if you used it past the trial period they started charging you for it.  Now that is very deceptive so I really think VZW is very deceptive to its customers and they won't even keep a straight face about it.  They just keep that pretty little smile and we just turn away and walk.  Good luck with your endeavor though.

    When you go to the Epson website for this particular printer it says:

    And finally, when you go to Software Update it says: "No updates available"
    I second OMT8.
    Yes, the driver file at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398 allowed me to finally install my printer, but does Apple have _any idea_ how long it takes to download a 1.08GB file over a 1.5mbps DSL connection?
    Never mind how much of my pricey new SSD is being consumed by the resulting 1.80GB of driver files all for _one_ printer driver that should maybe occupy 200K?
    Or that the primary article on OS X printer drivers (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669) -- which does indicate that the Artisan 830 is supported -- does not mention or link to the driver file that's needed to make it work?
    Or what a complete violation of Apple's "it just works" gestalt it is to be confronted with the above Catch-22 and to have to search the web and then go through all of the above to make a new laptop talk to a two-year-old printer?
    Yes, my printer now works, and yes, Apple's Support Communities were instrumental in getting to this point. But spending all morning (plus download time) getting a printer driver installed tastes way too much like I paid for Apple and got Microsquish.
