WHY DOES MY PROJECT EITHER HAVE NO AUDIO OR NO VIDEO, WHY DOES MY PROJECT EITHER HAVE NO AUDIO OR NO VIDEO

Suddenly last December, iMovie quit displaying video when I was editing... one week it worked, the next week it didn't.  I have changed source files... I have changed the DVD ripping program (none of the DVDs are commercial it is all stuff we have done in our church)... Now, I either get Video OR Audio playback, but not both...
C'mon.... someone must know something!

Do you have gfxCardStatus installed?  Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete".  You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
Try resetting the PRAM and SMC

Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.

  • Export h264 does not have Panned Audio/Share Youtube h264 does..why?

    I export share h264 and the audio is stereo and not center panned...even though it is panned on the project with dual mono and center VU meters runs up and down..when i use the share send to youtube and grab the h264 made for this...that has panned audio.
    Is it the dual mono?...when i have both ch.s selected in the inspector that seem to "phase" each other out.
    any ideas on doing waht was simple in fcp 7..pan all audio center....the keyboard short cut WAS control + .

    the share options in FCPX are actually just canned presets that have little or no flexibility in modifying parameters. What's happening is that while your audio channels might be dual mono with center panning, the preset exports (remixes) it as stereo. I'm assuming it equally spreads the audio across both channels, and adjusts the levels appropriately.
    Are you looking to export the audio as a single mono channel? I think you will need to use Compressor to set up your own preset that you can then publish to FCPX. Either that, or export (share) the project as quicktime file, and then use a different piece of software to encode to what you want (e.g., Quicktime Pro or MPEG Streamclip).

  • Hi, I have purchased an audio book on iTunes from an iMac and it does not show up on the cloud so I can't download it on my iPhone. Does anyone know why and how I can proceed to transfer the audio book purchase?

    Hi
    I have purchased an audio book from iTunes with my iMac.
    Now I wanted to listen to it on my iPhone so I proceeded to transfer the purchase and looked for the book in the purchased section of the store in the iTunes on my iPhone but it did not show up.
    Does anyone know why and how I can transfer the audio book purchased on my iPhone so I can listen while away from the desk?
    Thank you,
    Sanya

    Can you find the audio book by using the Search feature on the iPod?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the audio book to the iPod?

    Note you have to check the boxes in Books pane for the iPod in iTunes to sync books in general and another box to sync Audio Books.

  • I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1.  Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

    My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
    The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
    Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

  • HT3625 I have a 2012 macBook Pro 13" and the option "Use audio port for" does not appear at all in the sound menu. why is this? im running  mountain Lion 10.8.2

    I have a 2012 macBook Pro 13" and the option "Use audio port for" does not appear at all in the sound menu. why is this? im running  mountain Lion 10.8.2

    Because line-in has been removed.
    It does allow for an Apple headset with mic., but I don't know if it would work with third-party ones.
    You'll need to use a Griffin iMic or similar to use line-in via a USB port.
    The same goes for the 15" retina, the newest MBA and the new iMac (whenever it finally arrives).

  • Why do I keep losing audio/recorded tracks and SFX in my projects? I have tried: Saving as archive file/searching package contents etc. to no avail. Can anyone help?

    Why do I keep losing audio/recorded tracks and SFX in my projects? I have tried: Saving as archive file/searching package contents etc. to no avail. Can anyone help? It keeps telling me 'Audio file not found', and seems to be different tracks in the same project each time too.

    I also have this problem using Garageband in a school network situation when students open their project on one station, save it to their network drive, and later open it at a different station.  90% of the time there will be no issue, but sometimes audio files are lost. (Garageband '11, iMacs)
    That sounds like it might be a failure of the students to perform a Save As and check Archive Project when they do. This asks GB to pull all the files it needs into the associated .band document rather than point to them externally (and then risk not having them be there).

  • Why does my footage have to conform every time that I open my project?

    Working on my senior thesis film, and I am using my university's Mac Lab. Whenever I open the project, Premiere has to conform all of my footage, which takes about an hour for the size of this project.
    I thought it had something to do with the Media Cache Files and Media Cache Databases being stored locally on the computer you were working on. Does anyone know if that is the case for sure?
    Does anyone know a solution for preventing my project from having to conform each time I open it?

    The project does occassionally move from one machine to another. The project file and all of the video files are located on an external hard drive.
    At our university, they wipe all of the user accounts at midnight on schedule. This means we can't store all 200GB+ of our footage on the local machine.
    As I wrote in my other thread, I had come to the conclusion that Premiere was doing this because it generates all of the peak files and render files to the local machine. These files either get wiped by the school (because they're stored in
    /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Media Cache Files
    and
    /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Media Cache
    which are local, username-based directories) or they are written and changed (for example: I edit on computer A (where the project conforms all the footage), later, I go edit some on computer B (where it conforms all of the footage again probably because it's on a new computer), and then if I go back to computer A, it notices changes have been made to some of the generated files.)
    Potential Solution(?):
    I thought about trying to go to these directories and copying the folders and their contents to the external hard drive, and then copying and pasting them to the proper directory on a computer before I start editing, but that will require me to do a lot of copying and pasting.
    My other idea was to try and change the location of where Premiere saves the Media Cache Files and Media Cache Database to their location on the hard drive (after I copy those folders from a machine once they've conformed), but I do not know how to change the default location for these fiels in Premiere before I open the project.
    Thoughts??

  • Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad? Anyone have a fix? Have also created a dropdown menu, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

    Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad as they will in excel? Anyone have a fix? I have also created a dropdown menu in excel, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

    Glad you got it sorted out.

  • Why does the App store say 'download' to OSX Mavericks when i have already downloaded the update, and restarted the computer? I can't find Mavericks icon on the dashboard or launchpad either! Help!

    Why does the App store say 'download' to OSX Mavericks when i have already downloaded the update, and restarted the computer?
    I can't find Mavericks icon on the dashboard or launchpad either! Help!

    It sounds like you've installed Mavericks.  You can confirm this by clicking on the Apple located at the top left of the screen and choosing "About This Mac" from the menu.  You should see a window appear with the text "Version 10.9.1" near the middle.
    If it says "Version 10.9.1", then you've installed Mavericks.  It still says "Download" in the App Store because you can still download the operating system after installing it.  This is useful if you want to download it for a friend, or create a USB boot drive.

  • Why does my updated version of Firefox keep freezing telling me "not responding"? I have no plugins either..

    When i start firefox it takes forever to load, sometimes it doesnt even load up my default site, it should load up www.google.com but instead it loads www.ask.com. The reason why is because the browser isnt working correctly.
    When I try to view any website, or search on Google it takes forever for something to happen, and 95% of the time the whole browser almost turns completely WHITE, then at the top of the browser it says "Not Responding". I have to continue to close the browser and start a new session but it does the same thing.
    I have no or extensions, nothing at all.
    Whats going on? I never had problems with Firefox, what is going on?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Months ago

    Where is the answer? I know the question that is how I got here in the first place. Again Where is the answer.

  • Why does audio run faster than video after burning my iMovie project in iDVD?

    I created a project in iMovie HD and shared it to iDVD 6. When I played the finished disc, I noticed that the audio ran much faster than the video. I rechecked my movie and audio clips in iMovie to make sure they were matched correctly, and I saw no problem there. I burned the disc again through iDVD and got the same problem when I played it in a DVD player.
    I have never had this problem before and I've been working on dvd projects all week. I think the only difference with this movie project is that I had movie clip audio and background audio playing at the same time at some parts of the movie, but I don't know if that's the issue.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    And just to add to OT-s brilliant suggestions - really - Do a Save as a DiskImage ! IMPORTANT !
    • When free space goes down on the Start-Up hard disk to 5Gb or less - strange things occurs - Yes even audio out of sync - to not working DVD at all.
    I secure a minimum of 25Gb free space when using SD-video to iDVD - if HD material I would guess 4-5 times more as it has to be re-calculated into SD and this needs space.
    DVD - is as standard SD-Video (as old time CRT-TVs) - even if You use DVD-Studio Pro or iDVD or Roxio Toast™ - That's what it is and using HD material doesn't improve a bit (may be even give a lesser result)

  • Why does my video audio skip in projects but not in the event?

    When I watch video in my events, the audio is perfectly fine. When I drag clips from the event to a project, the audio randomly shorts out/skips/silences about every two seconds. I deleted the selected clips and reinserted them, and this is still happening. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this problem?!

    This is the event inspection:
