Why can't I get any audio sound on my Hi8 video capture in iMovie?

Hi
I have just captured some video clips from my Hi8 Camcorder and exported it to iMovie on my Apple Mac. Unfortunately there is no audio sound on the captured video. Can any one help? I am using Roxio Video Capture USB to capture the video from my camcorder.

That's the problem. The Roxio device captures in a highly compressed, multiplexed (muxed) format that isn't intended for editing. Muxed files won't playback audio without the proper software installed on your system. You could try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the captured files to an editable format, but that means you'll be taking a double hit on quality.
The proper way to capture analog footage for editing is to use a qualified "DV Device" (DV camcorder, converter or VTR) to convert the analog signal into a Firewire signal and use iMovie, FCE or FCP to capture and edit. Or, in your case, you could use a Digital8 camcorder for playback directly via Firewire.
FWIW, this is the Final Cut Studio forum. The iMovie forum is located here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/imovie?view=discussions

It's been a problem for some time now. You can drag a photo from the open iPhoto window into the Contact photo bin, i.e. window to window.

Why can't I get any sound to come from my phone unless I put it on speaker phone?

Do you still have the original plastic shipping cover on the face of the iPhone? Or any kind of screen protector that covers the speaker ear hole. That will block the sound.
My wife experienced this.
Also if you still have the shipping plastic on the back, it will cause the camera flash to spill back into the camera lense spoiling your pictures.

In Dreamweaver CC why can i not get any workspace options? Where do I find 'Draw AP div'?

In Dreamweaver CC why can i not get any workspace options? Where do I find 'Draw AP div' or any of my 'designer' tools?

Insertion of APDivs/Layers are deprecated in CC. Historically, APDivs caused many, many problems for people who didn't understand they were not intended to be used as a primary layout tool. Look at FluidGrid Layouts.

Why can't i get overdrive audio books onto my ipod

why can't i get overdrive audio books onto my ipod

Some find the mobile device transfer confusing. To load or delete a WMA or MP3 book onto an Apple mobile device do the following.
1. For Windows versions, you must first do a security update of Windows Media Player (even though you won't be using it) using Internet Explorer at http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/indivsite .
2. Open iTunes, plug the mobile device into the computer USB port and open the Overdrive Media Console.
3. Highlight the mobile device in the left hand menu of iTunes and insure the "Manually manage music and videos" box is checked in the Summary Tab.
4. Highlight the book you want to transfer in the Overdrive Media Console and click the Transfer Button. A window opens permitting you to click the boxes for parts of the book you wish to transfer.
5. After the book has been transfered, when you click the disclosure triangle (arrow) to the left of the iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes, MP3 books will show up under the Music subsection and WMA books will show up in the Books subsection. Once the mobile device is disconnected from iTunes, MP3 books will show up in the Songs list of the mobile device and WMA books will show up in the Books list.
6. To remove a book from a mobile device plug the device into the USB port and open iTunes. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of your iPod, iPhone, or iPad in the Device section of the left hand menu of iTunes so that you can see the device’s subcontents. For an MP3 book select the Music subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete. For a WMA book, select the Book subsection, right click on the book and choose Delete.

Why can'y we get any help

for more than 2 years we've repeatedly asked for our comcast tv and internet to be fixed. for 2 years it's been the same thing, change the box and say everything is fine, when it's not. for the last month there have been multiple appontments made with none kept and with no call. no one seems to know a thing or even care and it's gotten way too old, to the point of cancelling and moving on to fios/verizon. so I ask why can't we get any help?. we've asked for an upgrade, no past money is due, can't play video games live (runs too slow) things just do not work as advertised and again no one here or where ever our calls are sent to seems to care. it's we'll send someone on this date and then they don't show, call again and the same thing. 5 times in the month of July alone.

The Comast team available to the forum has been notified, expect a response here soon.

Why can't I get any sound out of Firefox.

I cannot get any audio from Firefox in any format (Flash, .wma, mp3, online radio, etc). I have tried the suggestions on the help page concerning the volume mixer, updating flash, etc. I did notice that Firefox and the Plug-in container do not even show in the volume mixer. Windows Media Player stopped working on this computer not long after I got it, that is not a real concern though. Itunes plays just fine. I am using Vista Home Premium SP2. Any suggestions?

Why am I not getting any alert sounds in Lion?

I just upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion 10.7.3 and find that I am not getting any alert sounds. Mail sounds work, voice notification [as in giving me the time on the hour and other spoken alerts] works, but simple things like trash emptying, taking items out of the dock or Finder side bar don't work at all.
I gone to System Prefs many times to try and tweak some things. Discovered that I had a lot of old Xounds sounds, so I deleted those. I'm at a real loss here folks, so if someone can point me in the right direction, I shall be forever thankful!

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Why can't I get any Actions to play?

All the loaded actions worked yesterday....none will play today. I can bring up yesterday's work and continue to work on the action run, however, when I closed that out and went to another project, I was unable to run any action loaded. I deleted the actions and re-entered turning off the computer after each action loaded. Still would not work. I finally uninstalled 11 and then re-installed it. Still no luck. I hope someone can tell me what I am doing wrong!! Are ACTIONS suppose to be a preset folder? I don't have a preset Actions folder in my program files...not even after I re-installed.

Why can't I get the audio to output over HDMI to my Panasonic TV?

It was working before I upgraded to Lion, but now it doesn't.

Yes. It's my opinion that HDMI is simply flaky. All that HDCP copy protection crap that is carried across the HDMI interface makes HDMI unnecessarily complex. Greedy Hollywood execs impose their bull on a technology that isn't even exclusive to their content, and we all suffer as a result. I've had a lot of problems with HDMI audio - I had to return my Google TV box even though I thought it was an excellent central hub for a media center because it wouldn't pass audio through properly over HDMI. It's a shame the TV manufacturers let Hollywood push them around with this junk. As far as I can tell, all this HDCP stuff only causes problems for consumers, but doesn't deter the professsional content thieves one iota.

Question is why can't I get any help from Adobe getting CC running again?

I have two open support tickets on getting CC up and running again. NO reposnse. I had to turn in 1/2 completed work on Flash class and will drop at least a letter grade. Flash has been down since satuday..

Hi Dave,
We really apologies for the inconvenience. Can you please provide me with support case number regarding the issue?
I'll look into this and will arrange a call from support.

Why can't I get any devices to show in the sidebar of a finder window?

Until recently I had devices (hard drives, DVD's, disk images, etc show up under devices in the sidebar of a finder window. Now none of these items show up. In Finder Preferences>Sidebar>Devices I nave all 4 checked (Bob's Mac Pro, Hard disks, External disks and CDs, DVDs and iPods). I tried rebooting. I tried unchecking the 4 boxes and rechecking them to no avail. It's annoying that I have to find an icon on the desktop to open these items. Any suggestions?
This is a Mac Pro running 10.9.5.

Do a backup.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.sidebarlists.plist. Move the .plists to your desktop.
Re-launch Finder by restarting the computer and test. If it works okay, delete the plists from the desktop.
If the same, return the .plists to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

What ssd do they use in a pavilion d7 and why can't i get any specs. on it

This sounds like some third-party app or extension, because this functionality is not in Firefox by default. [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] should remove it
