Why does iMovie remove the last half of my imported clips?

I've noticed that when I'm importing clips from an SD card the window tells me "___ minutes and ___ seconds have been imported from ___ clips." but when I go to view said footage, only the first half of the each clip is there. Literally to the second, iMovie stops at exactly the halfway point of the clip and just completely removes the last half. What's going on? Please help.

  • Why does Firefox remove the URL from the query string?

    Hello there,
    I've writing a servlet to read data from a file stored on a server. I'm using an HTTP <INPUT TYPE=file > element to locate the file to be read. When I run the servlet using IE as the browser it works fine. When I try running it using Firefox, the path to the file is not included in the query string. The full URL to the file shows up in the file input text field but then mysteriously disappears from the query string. Without the path, the servlet can't locate the file and the servlet fails. How do I get Firefox to include the path in the query string or is there some other workaround for this problem. I want my servlet to work on all types of browsers.
    thanks,
    grant

    Well you may also ask it the other way. Why does Microsoft send the full path file with the input type="file" component?
    The purpose of this control is to upload a file from the client to the server. That file is sent with the request.
    It does not allow you to browse server files at all. Most probably you are working on your developer machine where the client IS the server, so it works right now.
    It won't once they're seperate.
    <input type="file"> is the wrong tool to use to browser the server. You need to write your own html pages to do that.

  • Preview: Why does it open the last few documents every time it opens?

    Whenever I open a file in 'Preview' (any kind of .PDF, .jpeg, etc.) it opens with 2 or 3 windows; the file that I just opened, and also the last 2 or 3 files that I looked at.
    Why is it doing this? I've looked through the Preview preferences and I can't find anything that sounds like this.
    How do I turn this off?

    By turning off autoresume from System Preferences or closing the documents before quitting Preview.

  • Why does notes remove the cursor when it updates

    Hello Everyone,
    I just downloaded the new Mountain Lion OS and I was excited about the syncing capability of the notes and reminders.  After some effort I was able to get the notes to sync on my mac book and my Iphone.  The problem is that after typing one work the bar at the top says updating, and it removes the cursor from the notes writing area.  I have to click to get the cursor to appear again and then continue typing my note.  This happens so frequently that it pretty much makes the app too annoying to use.  Has anyone else run into this issue?  Have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Scott,
    Hopefully, it's just a transient problem with the iCloud account.  You might wait awhile and see if it goes away.
    If it does persist, you might want to get in touch with iCloud support to see if they can shed any light on what the problem might be.  To me it seems like the problem is on their end, not yours.

  • Why does iMovie 09 take so long to process imported film

    This may not precisely be a question in the vein of "hey help me fix a crisis," but I am still a newbie to the new iMovie. I have used the old versions for years, making various projects. I got very comfortable with it. Now, though, I have to reimport a ton of old analog film (about 250 GB) due a dead hard drive (yes, sad times and another lesson in why you must have 2 copies of back-ups).
    Anyway, in the old iMovie, you told the app to import and it did. If you had 30 minutes of film, then it took 30 minutes. Boom--done.
    With iMovie 09, I spend the 30 minutes, and then when I tell it to stop importing, it then takes another bit of time (seems to be about 1/3rd or so of the original length) to then process the film. Can anyone tell me why? What is the point and how does it help me?
    Then, is there any other way to import film into my computer besides iMovie?

    It takes longer because iMovie has to create thumbnails for the media browser. It captures thumbnails every few seconds so that it can divide up the movie in the media browser for easier skimming and clipping. On my computer, it told me it would take 15 minutes to process a 32-minute Keynote presentation video export.

  • Why did apple remove the combine tracks option in importing settings

    itunes for windows 7. APPLE took away the combine tracks option in import settings, why?

    I can't see all of the screen - are the tracks ordered by track number?  If so, then the "Join Tracks" option should be available to you.  If you follow this sequence of operations (with apologies if this seems tediously obvious ...):
    insert CD
    wait for track info to appear
    click on the heading of the column containing track numbers (normally this will be ordered sequentially, first to last, and the column will have a "^" symbol in the heading:
    The track order should now be reverse (highest to lowest), with a down arrow symbol in the heading
    Click on the column heading a second time - this will ensure that tracks really are in correct sequential order
    Now hold down SHIFT and select the first of the tracks you want to join followed by the last of the tracks you wish to join.  One set of tracks should now be highlighted.
    Click on Options
    If you're still not seeing the "Join Tracks" option then there may be an underlying issue that'll require further investigation.

  • Where does iMovie move the .dv files I've imported?

    When I rip footage off my Sony camcorder, I get all the .dv clips in one project. Where are those .dv clips located? I can't find them in spotlight (by searching ".dv" or "dv" or "clip 01").
    I want to know because I want to be able to use clips from different projects. Also, I'm worried that if I delete a clip from a project, I will never find that clip again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    castlljs,
    What appears to be a single iMovie HD project file is actually a package.
    You can view its contents by selecting it in the finder and control-clicking (or right clicking it) and choosing Show Package Contents.
    iMovie 5 also allows you to cut and paste clips among projects as well as drag clips to the desktop right from iMovie. The clip will be copied to the desktop.
    These features make it easy to use the same clips in multiple projects.

  • Why does Firefox remove the top portion of my Persona when I'm not showing the Menu Bar?

    Under View > Toolbars you can show and hide the Toolbars you want, but when you choose to hide the Menu Bar, it cuts off about a centimeter of my Persona. A centimeter doesn't sound like much but on an image that is only about 10 centimeters tall in the first place, removing one from the top makes the picture unbalanced. Personas that don't have a boarder are even worse because it actually cuts off part of the detail of the image. Could that be fixed in a future patch?

    It still chops off the top of the personas :( I think I'll uninstall v8 and go back to v3 Firefox, those were the glory days! haha

  • Why does Firefox select the last used printer instead of the system default printer on startup?

    In the course of using Firefox I selected my color printer to print in color then closed Firefox. When I reopened Firefox later on and sent something to the printer I had assumed it picked up the system default printer, a monochrome laserjet. It picked up the color printer instead. When I restart my other apps they automatically pick up the default printer. Why not Firefox?

    Some web pages will pop up the print dialog automatically. In particular, pages that websites have specially formatted for printing may do this.
    Are you restoring tabs that you previously opened, or starting up with your home page(s)? I suspect that one of them is generating the dialog. You could check by going to each one and reloading the page to see whether it is from that page.

  • Why does iMovie stop importing my tape from the camcorder even though it says it is still importing?

    Why does iMovie stop importing my tape from the camcorder even though it says it is still importing?

    It's difficult to be sure without doing some network packet sniffing, but if it were another app syncing, it would be an awful coincidence, since it seems to happen only while I'm in Reminders.app -- as soon as I click the home button and go back to the home screen, it stops; when I launch Reminders again, it starts again.
    Moreover, it happens when I am not in the house, which rules out iTunes syncing.
    Note that it's not the syncing spinner (i.e. two arrows chasing each other in a circle) -- it's the data access spinner (like the wait spinner in many apps and the apple.com search box).

  • Why does iMovie for iPad shorten the background song length after adding a photo?

    Why does iMovie for iPad shorten the background song length after adding a photo?
    I created a project a few months ago, and iMovie worked as it always had. I would create a project, add a background song, then add photos to fill up the song.
    When I created a project today, I added the background song (4m9s), then added a single photo, and the background song length was shortened to 6 seconds. I have never seen the app work this way. I know I can extend the photo to the length of the background song, but it used to be so much easier to add photos and sync them with the music as I desi
    I'm using iPad2 with iMovie v1.4.1.
    Thoughts?

    When I've added photos to a project they are added to a default time to appear. Honestly I've never looked at the time but 6 seconds sounds close. I'm guessing that since you added the photo after you add the music that its thinking you want the two to match in time length so it tunicates the music. Try adding the photo first then add the music. Good luck!

  • Why does iMovie quit unexpectedly when I try to share in iDVD?

    Why does iMovie quit unexpectedly when I try to share in iDVD?

    I don't know why it happens, but if you read messages around the iMovie Discussion Group it seems to happen to a lot of people. The easiest way around this is to Share to Media Browser instead of Share to iDVD directly. The Media Browser is a 'holding area' for video you want to use in other iLife Apps (including GarageBand and iDVD). When you Share to Media Browser, choose the Large size. Then let it run until it finishes. Quit iMovie.
    Open iDVD. Create a New Project, Select a Theme. Then click on the Media Button. Click on the Movies button below the Media Browser. Your project will now appear under the iMovie star icon just drag that project into the iDVD project window. This should bypass the problem you were having by sharing Directly to iDVD.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
