Why won't iDVD recognise my iMovie HD 6 project?

I use the share>iDVD, and iDVD opens, but in Media it says "This iMovie project can't be used...." The solution offered is to "save to Media Browser" this is not an option in HD 6. If I try and import to iMovie '08, nothing is actually imported. What can I do? I have completed two projects and I want to burn them on 1 disc with menu options?

Instead of sharing, create an iDVD project and try dragging your iMovie project icon (the one with the star on it) into the edge of your iDVD project main menu window. It should import right into iDVD.
However, your iMovie and iDVD appear not to be working correctly. You should be able to share to iDVD if you are doing it correctly. Try closing them both down and trashing the files com.apple.iMovie.plist and com.apple.iDVD.plist found in User/Library/Preferences. Then do a permissions repair using the Disk Utility app on your Mac. Now see if iMovie will properly share to iDVD.

Why won't iDVD create chapters?

Why won't iDVD create chapters?
I'm using iMovie "09" and iDVD.
I created an iMovie project with chapter markers. When I try to create a DVD project, selecting a Theme with chapters, the chapters do no appear...only the full movie.
Don

And I figure about - if there is a setting somewhere for minutes per Chapter as in Roxio Toast ?
Go into the Map mode, select the movie there
and select the Advanced ➙ Create Chapter Markers for Movie menu option
Then you can set the Chapter length in 1 minute increments:

Most users buy iDVD (part of iLife 11 ON DISK).
IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

Why won't iDVD 08 preview controls allow fast forward?

It says in the manual that clicking the "right arrow" button on the on-screen control panel will fast-forward the movie, but it doesn't. Can anyone tell me why this is?
And why doesn't the iDVD preview have the same preview slider as QuickTime does?

This is simply a suggestion .... if you are in need of "scrubbing the timeline" do this in the video editing app (ie, iMovie or FCP) and not iDVD.
The main reason we don't normally scrub the entire video w/in iDVD itself is because this is not where video editing is done (as opposed to authoring the entire DVD).
iMovie and iDVD are like a candy bar. The chocolate bar would be iMovie and iDVD would be the candy wrapper (the outside packaging only). Hope this analogy makes sense.
A couple of things you can do to quickly preview your iDVD prior to burning to media if Preview / FF isn't working correctly in iDVD..... The first would be to jump to different scenes using scene selections w/in iDVD or perhaps make a disc image first of the dvd to the desktop and then use apple's dvd player to fast forward, reverse, etc.

Why won't iDVD burn my .avi files... it used to?

i have files ending in .avi that i want to burn to a DVD, in order to watch them on television.
i throw them into the iDVD and the preview shows nothing but a blank screen.
iDVD used to burn my .avi files.
i have converted them to .mp4 / .mpg / .mov... but nothing seems to work.
sometimes, throwing a .mp4 file into iDVD nothing happens at all, or it will say unsupported / unrecognized file.
the only time it did work was when i used a program to convert a file to .mp4, but now it has a huge watermark across the picture.
why all of a sudden does it not work?

Hi
If QuickTime-player opens Your .avi files then start Inspector (cmd+I) and read
Video Format/Codec: nnnnnnnnnnn
What does it read ?
What did an old .avi file that worked - read ?

TS3276 I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails to people in my address book. Hotmail advised me to change my password for that account, which I did. Why won't mail recognise the new password?

I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails from my address book. Hotmail advised me to delete all contacts and change the password for that account, which I did on my laptop running windows XP. The change was successful and I was able to send and receive emails with no problem. I then had to change the account password on my iPhone 4s, which I did and it too was successful but when I came to change the password on my iMac, running the latest version of Lion it would not recognise the new password. I have tried to remove the account details and re-install but every time I go to add new account my old details are in the box. This is very frustrating as I use my iMac for all my profects and I need to access my email. Please help.

hi guys,
I had already deleted all reference to the hotmail account in question from the keychain access app, I have also tried to delete and re-instal the account details from within mail. The icon in the side bar dissapears but when I go to Add Account, the old account details are in the new account box. I then input my new password but am told that the server does not recognise it. If I access hotmail via google on the iMac I can get into my account with no problems. I am thinking there must be some other form of security system within the mac software that is blocking the new password. This is driving me nuts. I have been trying to resolve this for the last two days. Thank you for your advise anyway.

Why won't the April 2014 iMovie update open?

Recently (about two hours ago), I installed the new April 2014 update of Imovie. however, every time I try and open the application, it says the following:
"iMovie quit unexpectedly. Click reopen to open the application again. This report will be sent to Apple automatically." But when I try and click "reopen" or "ok"
The same thing happens. By the way I restarted my computer and tried shutting it down but nothing works can someone please help?

Hi Cassielsmith13,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that the rear camera on your iPhone is not functioning as you would expect and I know how frustrating situations like **** can be. In this situation, there are a few different troubleshooting steps that I would recommend. Please use the steps located in the attached article to troubleshoot this situation.
Get help with the camera on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
You see a closed lens or black screen
If you see a closed lens or black screen when you open the Camera app, try these steps:
Make sure that there’s nothing blocking the camera lens. If you’re using a case, try removing it.
Force the app to close, then open the Camera app again.
Restart your device, then open the Camera app again.
If your device has a front and rear camera, try both cameras by tapping (camera swap icon). If you see the closed lens or black screen on only one camera, take your device to an Apple Retail Store or Authorized Service Provider for more help.
Cheers,
Joe

Why won't iPhoto recognise format of pictures?

Whenever I try to transfer photos from my iphone to my Macbook Air, I get an error message telling me that the format is unrecognizable. why is this happening?

What didn't work for you? It was a test. Did it fail? Where?
gregg137
Can you access those images with Image Capture (in the Applications Folder) Are you importing from a camera? Can you use a Card Reader? Try reformat the card after you get the images off.
In either case, you need to give us concrete information to work with. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

Crop failure: why won't Mail recognise my iPhoto edits?

I cropped a photo in iPhoto (9.4.3), but although Mail (6.5) shows the cropped version in its Photo Browser, it keeps importing the original version. The same thing happens when I attempt to attach the photo here, so perhaps it isn't a Mail problem, but an iPhoto or Mountain Lion one.
Any ideas?

Never change a hotmail password via a link in an e-mail!.

Hey Patrick, why won't Motion open when I send my project from fcp?

I just started playing with motion... doing the tutorial. The first time I tried the tutorial, it worked fine. The next time, the project didn't save, Motion didn't open.
I tried the usual, repaired permissions, trashed the prefs. But so far, nothing.
(By the way, I just figured you would be the first person to read and respond to my question... you practically own this forum.)
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim and All-
I have the same problem at the same point in the same tutorial. The other tutorials may be better, but I am concerned that, being new to FCS, I am missing functionality I didn't know I should have. Like the commercial said, I don't know enough to know what I don't know about. I am coming over from PremPro and AE, and I am impressed with the wealth of built in features. I don't care for the idea of reinstalling the OS and all of FCS, but if it helps... If there are any answers to this issue, I would be glad to know. Thanks to all-
Jeff

Why can't I import old imovies into idvd?

Why can't I import old imovies into idvd?

I have 68 GB free and the movie is a small one. The iDVD file is on my hard drive and in the dock.
Today I found a work around for this problem. While I cannot open the original movie, I can access the clips in the media folder. I put the clips together and made a new movie. And I can import this to iDVD by going to "share" in the menu and selecting iDVD.

Why won't iMovie 10.0.01 show any still photos?

On the new iMovie update, every single time I add a photo to my timeline, it shows up green! Why won't it show any still photos? Does anyone have a solution?

Are the photos too large of a file maybe?
