Why does my audio jump all over the place after detaching it

in iMovie HD you could extract audio then work with clips over it, in 09 I can't do anything. I extract/or detach the audio, but it is still attached or something. if you put a clip in the project widow the whole thing moves over, not just the video. So I saw the tutorials and they said you can replace a clip. but no window opens up over the clip??? any help

After detaching audio, it is easy to drag the audio to some other place in your project.
If you want to put clip A on top of a portion of clip B while keeping the audio from clip B, this is easily done. It is called a cutaway in iMovie 09.
First go into iMovie Preferences and turn on the advanced tools.
Select clip A so that it has a yellow border around it. This can be from the Event or from the Project.
Now drag clip A and drop it on Clip B at the point where you want the cutaway to begin.
A popup menu will come up. Select "CutAway"
You are done, but you can fine tune it if you like.

  • Why is my page or connection jumping all over the place after my recent update to firefox 5.0

    I came back from a week away and when I got on the internet firefox had updated to 5.0 and ever since then my pages just jump all over the place Why?

    Hi Aish,
    I have found the problem, but not sure where to find the solution as I'm pretty new to Adobe products.
    I built another site to see if I had the same problem, this time I made it shorter to see if the length was the problem. I put in some elements and 'assets', added parallax scroll key frames, left out pretty much most other things to see if I could pin the problem down. I found that I had the exact same problem.
    In the Muse preview it scrolls with the mouse like a dream when I grab the scroll bar and drag it down. But when I preview in business catalyst, export HTML or preview in browser, it goes crazy and won't let me get to the bottom. Further to that, when you scroll back to the top, everything is out of place and gets worse every time you scroll down and back to the top.
    I have a touch screen computer and tried to scroll the screen with my finger rather than dragging the scroll bar down with the mouse. The website works like a dream when I scroll with my finger, even when I scroll back to the top everything stays in place and the whole site works lovely! I then tried the other, long website to see if this was the same case and it was exactly the same case. It scrolls with a finger like a dream, but has a fit when you drag down the scroll bar with a mouse.
    My next question would be could I somehow disable some kind of touch scroll option in only the desktop version of the site, but leave it active in mobile and tablet sites? If I can do this can you please advise me on how to deactivate it, I think that should solve the problem.
    Can you please get back to me with an answer to this? I would be very greatful!

  • Why does iDVD store stuff "all over the place"?  Project now broken

    Hi all,
    did an hour long family movie project, and in the meantime cleaned up my documents folder and deleted some stuff that I thought was internet downloads etc, or extra working files.
    Turns out it was the important audio stuff for iDVD!
    I've broken my project... the stuff was obviously important, and now when I open this project it has a big broken chain on it.
    Why does iDVD store important stuff "all over the place" like that? I mean, it's confusing enough (for newbies) to learn where the events and where the projects are stored, but why does it strip off the sound and store them in documents where ANYTHING could get deleted?

    Just to add, an iDVD project should be thought of as a shell, an empty container. It has references to the media files used in it, but does not actually contain these files. The files remain in their normal locations. When you burn to disk, or create a disk image file, iDVD pulls these files just for encoding onto a DVD disk or into a disk image file. It does not really move these files into its project files. Your iMovies, photos and audio files remain where they are. If you move, change, rename or delete any of these files, iDVD will not be able to locate them, and you will see the broken link images.
    For this and several other reasons, it is a good idea to leave everything alone and not go deleting any files until you have finished your iDVD project.
    Then, when you are ready to burn it to DVD disk, be sure to do a 'Save as disk image' to create a disk image file of the project. This process looks like the burn process, and the encoding will take just as long, but the end result is a self-contained disk image file, not a burned DVD disk.
    The advantage of the disk image file is that you will have an exact copy of your iDVD project with all the media files encoded into it. You now can safely delete all the media used in this iDVD project without losing the project. Now you can clean up your documents folder! Deleting all the files used in the project will also save you drive space.
    You can save disk image files as backups and can move them to external drives or other computers. You can burn DVD disks from disk image files using Disk Utility or Toast. You don't have to worry about your burned DVD disk breaking/melting or having something spilled on it (kids in the house!). You can always get the disk image file and burn another copy. (Great for the relatives who somehow 'lose' the great DVD you made for them!).
    You cannot edit the disk image files however, so you should be creating one only when your project is completely finished.
    If you wish to save all your iDVD files while you are working on a project, you can archive your iDVD project. I have not found the need to do this, but the link J Keller gave you for the tutorial explains how to save as archive and as disk image. Obviously, the archive project will be larger since it is saving all the media. Archived projects can also be moved to other drives or computers.
    Hope you can recreate your project.
    Note to J Keller: the video tutorial was quick and gave the brief how-to and why. Nothing complicated.

  • Why is the webpage jumping all over the place with parallax scrolling?

    Hi all, I'm getting a little frustrated here... I've built a looooong (10,200 pixel) parallax scrolling site, when I click 'Preview' it plays like a dream, but when I render the HTML, view in browser or publish to business catalyst to view, it just jumps all over the place. I realise that the page is extremely long, I'm thinking it could be that but just need to clarify it before I rework it all and maybe find out after, that it was something else that was causing it to happen.
    Your views would be greatly appreciated!

  • When in organizer how do I keep my cursor from jumping all over the place?

    When I am working in Organizer 12, My cursor jumps all over the place and the screen keeps repositioning itself.  It is infurating and I can't get any work done. New desktop iMac using Marevick 10.9.1  and wireless mouse and track pad both slowed to lowest level.  Also tried using a tethered mouse but no different.  Anyone else have this problem.  Is it an Apple problem?

    Is it a 'Magic Mouse'? If so that's why, there are many reports that it is badly behaved in the Elements Organizer. If not, do you have another mouse you could try it with (to rule out a hardware problem)?

  • My iPhone 5 has really sporadic battery percentage that jumps all over the place and every so often the phone turns off

    Hi guys!
    I'm having trouble with my iphone 5, the battery percentage jumps all over the place. It will be down at 14% and then I plug the charger in and it jumps to 50%, it jumps around without me plugging the charger in. Today it actually turned off twice and had the red icon to plug it in and when I plugged it in it had turned straight on and was at 27%.
    Any ideas what could be causing this? Its really annoying because when I'm out I'm not really able to rely on the battery indicator being correct.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
    Russell

    Hi Boris,
    That sounds really similar! I'm not sure what to so about it, I bought a mobile battery pack to charge my phone while I'm on the go as this seems to make the percentage instantly jump back up again. If I don't get any ideas on here ill probably take it in to an apple store and see if I get any joy there. I'll let u know the outcome if I do go to a store, maybe I can at least buy one at a reduced rate or something. I got my iphone 5 on the day of release so I'm outside warranty too :(

  • Analyzing then rendering...frames jumping all over the place

    After sending clip from FCP to Shake, I set interlacing to <even> and then <analyzed>. Upon rendering, I found the frames jumping all over the place. And not a complete image filling in the viewer.
    I watched Capt. Menches' tutorial and couldn't get things to gel.
    He also mentioned nothing about <deinterlacing> I am using straight QT file, not HD.
    I have just two clips I want to smoothcam effect.
    Thanks

    Thanks.
    It was a DV file in FCP then I exported as a Quicktime Self contained movie.
    It is now called FCP Movie file with DV/DVCPRO-NTSC
    When I open it with Compressor it shows this info as well: NTSC CCIR 601/DV
    Also I am under the impression that the de-interlacing should be set to even, Yes?
    The clip really isn't so shaky to begin with.
    When I play it back in the flipbook. Some frames are on one side of the window then to the other side with some of the frames clipped.
    Should I use compressor to make a different codec. I have never used that part of FCP.

  • My cursor keeps jumping all over the place in Mail since I installed Yosemite

    I installed Yosemite yesterday, and now, whenever I try to write an email, my cursor keeps jumping all over the place.  I can't write more than a few words without my cursor jumping back in the middle of one of the previous words.  I makes Mail almost unusable.  Am I the only one with this problem?

    Similar problem. Mine seems to happen in mail - my cursor jumps to the line below and carries on typing - almost as if I'd pressed the down arrow to move the cursor. It seems to happen more when I type an apostrophe too.

  • Does anyone know why my mouse cursor jumps all over the screen at times?

    Does anyone know why the mouse cursor jumps all over the screen at times, especially if I am playing solitare?  Is it Yahoo games or my Apple?

    If so there's already discussions about this here and maybe related to it, here.  Also google something like "jumping magic mouse" and there's no end of discussions on this topic

  • Clipping masks from AI jumping all over the place in AE

    I have a project I've been working on for a while, and have encountered an extremely annoying bug that only seems to have appeared since the latest update...
    Basically, I have a bunch of layers from Illustrator which have clipping masks within them. When I bring these into After Effects and add any kind of movement (camera, masks etc), the images inside the clipping masks jump around all over the place. Not the masks themselves, or the layers - just the images inside them.
    This has only started happening since the latest update to CC 2014 - it's something I've done a million times before and it's always been fine.
    Really hoping someone can shed some light on this, as I don't have much hair left to pull out...
    Thanks

    one update - we had a look back at some of the previous projects we've produced using this technique, and it's still apparent there (so in CC & CC2014 projects) - it just seems to be much worse in this particular project.

  • MacBook Pro: I have no control of my trackpad, it's jumping all over the place ???

    Pointer began moving around on it's own. I have no control over it and it makes my MBP useless. I haven't added anything new, help??

    Check to be sure it is clean.
    Look hard at your MacBook. Is the battery bulging? This puts pressure underneath the trackpad, and can cause it to malfunction.
    Do you have a mouse plugged in as well? The mac will combine inputs from trackpad and mouse, so an additional mouse may make the cursor go all over the place.

  • HT203301 iPhone 4S compass 180° out and other times all over the place after ios7 update. Anybody else had this?

    Since updating to iOS 7 the compass on my iPhone 4S is all over the place but mainly 180° out tried calibrating rebooting etc etc and no difference.!

    Nope, i generally hate iTunes for it being annoying and incredibly "damaging" to the computer (slows my computer down a shitload when booting atleast), so I've avoided it at any costs till now. Shame apple "forces" us to use their more "******" apps in order to "guard" ourselves against stuff like this... I'll survive, the most important pics are on facebook, and the apps and contacts I can easily replace. For my part Apple has one life less when it comes to me buying another product from them.
    Thanks for all the replys , i appreciate a community like this!

  • Screen icons all over the place after wake up?

    I have found recently that sometimes after I wake my screen up after sleep that the dock is missing and my apps are all over the place and i have no home screen anymore?! Has anyone else come across this? I also found that sometimes my screen goes bright white and nothing seems to fix it apart from resetting it by holding down the home button and the screen off button. Would love to find out if this is simply a few bugs in the software and not a glitch in the phone! Thanks

    Hi Peter,
    Are you using any accessories with the iPhone?
    Try restoring the iPhone to rule out any issues with the iPhone software. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 will walk you through restoring the iPhone.

  • Webpage rendering images all over the place after 8.0.X

    Whenever I open a web link from the financial 'stock' application, it loads normally with small fonts as usual but when double-tabbed to magnify to full screen, two things will occur:
    1. the keyboard pops up which is very annoying
    2. images rendered all over the place in magnified full-screen mode.
    Just updated to 8.0.2 and problem still persists.

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.
