Why can't I "update" titles and other effects on iMovie?
I love creating videos on iMovie. I even have an account on Youtube.com, which I upload some of my videos to. Regardless, I am restricted from achieving a high level of iMovie competency due to limitations on my knowledge of iMovie. I don't know how to add titles to my movies. I can preview them...but somehow not "update" them. Its confusing. Also...I don't think I can add Quicktime videos to my iMovie videos. I am quite confused, because I look around online and everyone is doing these compilations between their own clips and those of movies, music videos, etc. Also if there is any free software I can download to rip dvds and convert files...please let me know. I am really confused. Someone help me...please!?!?!?!
G5 PowerPC Mac OS X (10.3.9) iMovie 4.0.1 and Quicktime 7.1.1
Hi Crew:
Welcome to discussions!
You don't need to 'update' the titles-just drag them.
Look at this little video (really it's quick!) for a tutorial:

Wouldn't hurt to peruse the entire site actually!

Why can't I download Premiere and After Effects CC on my laptop?
Why can't I download Premiere and After Effects CC on my laptop? I don't have the option for the Creative Cloud apllication on my menu bar as well. It launches Adobe Download Manager instead. Software like Photoshop and Illustrator CC are working fine?
Thanks!
Jose ChamaIf it doesn't show up your system doesn't support it. It's as easy as that. Refer to the system requirements for the applications.

Curious - why can some see web page and others cannot?
I've had a couple people tell me that the link that I have provided for my website (a cut and paste of the URL address) doesn't work and the error msg is that the page does not exist.
Others can view the site just fine.
I have, until recently, also been able to view my site without issue but I live in China and it is not unusual for there to be sites temporarily blocked from time to time. I have not been able to bring up my site and thought that this was just due to one of these fun times. But the person not able to access the site is in the US.
So my question is, what other things could bring up an error msg like that? Since it is a cut and past issue, it can't really be a mistyping of the address so looking for any other things that could cause this.
Thanks!Problem sort of solved.
However, the person who was having difficulty wasn't able to click on the full address URL but when I gave him the shortened version (the version that comes up on iWeb when you are asked if you want to publish it) it was fine. Not really sure why one works and not the other but a solution was at least found.
Posting this in case anyone else runs into a similar situation. -
Why Can I Not See Clone and Retouch Effects?
Hello out there!
I have newly installed Aperture 3.3.1 on my Macbook Pro OSX 10.7.4 running Lion, also newly installed.
My previous version of Aperture 2.? clone and retouch buttons suddenly stopped working months ago and never did start again - I have trashed Aperture 2.
Aperture 3 clone and retouch tools also don't work. When I try to use either tool, they appear to work, but no change is visible. Each try adds a stroke in the adjustment pane, but I can't see the changes.
I may have read somewhere in these discussions, but I can't find it again now, someone's tip to rebuild the library?
Anyone have any thoughts? Greatly appreciated.Kirby's advice should work, if you open the correct library: You are looking at the system library /Library/Preferences, not at your user library.
In Mac OS X Lion your User Library is hidden by default.
You can access it by using the Finder's "Go" menu from the Finder's main menu bar.
Select the "Go" menu entry and hold down the "alt/option" key ⌥, until the library appears in the drop down menu.
Select and click "Library".
In the window that opens select the "Preferences" folder, and then move the file "com.apple.Aperture.plist" to the Desktop, like Kirby suggested.
Make sure, you quit Aperture properly, before you move the preference file. Im Mac OS X Lion new process system (automatic termination) the only safe way to ensure that an application really quits is to log off and on again.
Then it should work, like Kirby Krieger suggested. And please let us know, if this brought back your clone brushes.
Regards
Léonie
P.S. If you want to make your user library permanently accessible again, drag the folder to the Finder's sidebar or change the hidden flag to "nohidden" using the Terminal:
Open a terminal window and enter:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Then hit return. -
Why can't I update or load new apps on my iPhone and iPad. It does not ask me for my password. I tried to sync from my laptop now I am unable to connect to any sites from internet explorer. When I try to update or load any app it tells me it is corrupt
You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.
That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops. -
Took delivery of imac yesterday with pre-installed Pages, Numbers and Keynote. App store says they need updating but won't let me because I've never owned the major version of the software. I have paid like anyone else, so why can't I update?
You must be signed into the Apple Store with your Apple ID or it won't work.

How to deal with a 100 Store Error:
Try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
If that doesn't help, open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here;
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/Cache.db
Click Go
Move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Now here:
~/Library/Preferences/
Click Go
Move these files from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
com.apple.appstore.plist
com.apple.storeagent.pllist
Now here:
~/Library/Cookies
Click Go
Move the com.apple.appstore.plist file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.
Empty the Trash, try the App Store. -
Why can't I update to the latest version of itunes. My computer tells me an error occured and if it happens again to load manually
Had exactly same problem on iPad1. "Unable to check for update. An error occurred while checking for a software update". Been getting this since 3/7/2012. Apple support said probably server overload. Checked these comments and found answer that worked.
-- Reset device
. Backup your iPhone/iPad to iCloud (very important). Settings>iCloud> Storage and Backup>Backup Now (at the bottom)
. Erase your device. Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content And Settings
. Device will reset and wipe itself
. When it restarts follow the instructions on screen and setup your device.
You're choices here do not really matter except for restoring From a backup.
Do not restore a backup, chose "Set up as new".
. When complete, the Software Update should now work which will install IOS 5.1
. When installed, Erase the device again (see Above).
. Once erased, follow the Wizard but this time select that you wish to restore from a backup
In iCloud. Select the backup that you took in first step.
. Your device should be back to normal and with IOS 5.1.
This takes time to complete but it worked. Thanks to Glosdeveloper for this. By the way this was an "over the air" update (as opposed to plugged in. -
Why can't I update any apps? When I hit update it gives me an old id. But in settings my new id is totally set and verified. How cam I make the change in App Store?
App purchases are permanently tied to the ID with which they were purchased. They cannot be transferred to a new ID.
You will have to enter the password for that ID or delete the apps and re-purchase them with the new one.

HT204053 Why can't I update and get free apps when I don't have money on my account?
I have an iCloud account. Why can't I update and add free app if my account has no money?

Why can't I update my iPad iso 4.2 version? I go to setting and it does not have it like it should. Why does apple have to make things so freaking hard! Help!
If you have an original iPad 1, the latest version of iOS it can run is iOS 5. So you should be able to update no problem.
Update iTunes to the latest version (11.0.2). Then simply plug your iPad into the computer and open iTunes. Click the iPad either in the sidebar or the top navigation bar. Then attempt to update the software. If it doesn't work, please post the exact error message.
Note that it would be wise to first ensure you back up the iPad. -
When I ring someone from my iPhone 4 they can't hear me sometimes and other times they can hear me fine. This has only started happening since I updated to iOS 6 it was perfect the day before.
Good news! I believe I have fixed my phone!!
A friend of mine was having the same problem that I was having where you could hear other people but they couldn't hear you.
We fixed the problem by redownloading the 4.2.1 update. 4th post down on this page: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1052794&page=5 is a list of links to the update files. I downloaded the one for my phone and did a restore (from a backup) after downloading the file and double clicking it so iTunes opens. Since I've done this my phone has been working perfectly again!
It might take you a few tries, it took my friend 3 tries until his worked right and it worked for me on the first try. I'm guessing something was screwing up during the download. -
I bought over a Mac Book Pro from a friend. I can't update iPhoto and other apps as it seems like these are tagged to the previous owner's account. It basically requires me to sign in to my fren's account which is absurb! Because iphoto comes with mac isn't it?
Contact your "friend." Have him set up the MBP for your with your own account, settings and passwords. You are not running IOS 5.1. That is for iPhone and iPad users. What OS are you running? Did he give you the OS installer disks?

HT4972 why can't i update my ipad 1 to ios 5
Why can't I update my ipad to ios 5?
Why can't you?
If you are running an iOS version lower than 5, you'll need to connect your iPad to a computer running iTunes and update through there.

Why can't I update my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1? Every time I try it gets all the way done downloading it; however when it's processing the file the page tells me "There is a problem downloading the software for the iPhone. Network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active. or try again later." and next to the file it has err = -3259. I have tried this 17 times and it won't work. My iTunes is completely up to date. I have made sure that my connection is fine and I have tried turning my firewall off with no avail. This has happened to me before but usually the update will go through after 2-3 tries, never to this extent. I don't know what to do. Help!
Error -3259 is a network timeout error, usually. This article might help:
