why wont the contextual menu for imovie appear even after I've turned on advanced tools?

Hi
And You are doing it right
• draging a clip ontop of other clip in Project - or -
• ctrl-click on clip in Project
If it's not that - then my wild Guess is that the iMovie Pref file got corrupted.
• TEST - Easy by creating a new User Account / Log into this / re-try iMovie - if it now works then I would trash the pref. file

  • How do I find the contextual menu for the adjustment brush

    I'm trying to locate the drop down menu for the adjustment brush, not the panel but the acutal menu that also has some Adobe developed presets (like soften skin and whiten teeth for example).

  • Why is the Lightroom preview folder so big, even after purging the 1:1 previews?

    1:1 or full-size previews take up a large amount of HD space, often many 10's of GB's. This is why building them on demand is an alternative to building them up front, and why you have options for auto or manually purging them. That said, it may not always be possible to delete 1:1 previews - more later. 
    Standard-sized previews are based on the pixel size option you chose in Catalog Settings. You have 4 choices: 1024, 1440, 1680 and 2048. If all you want is standard-sized then choose a size equal to or greater than your screen size. Lr also builds smaller versions at the same time. These are used for the thumbnail, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4 zoom levels. Adobe call this the "preview pyramid". 
    1:1 previews will not be deleted unless your chosen standard-sized preview is less than half the size of the full-sized preview. For example, you have images with pixel dimensions of 3072 by 2048 pixels (6MP camera such as Canon 10D) and have selected 1680 pixels for standard-sized previews. Since a 1680 pixel preview is more than half the size of the original the full-sized preview will be kept, even after using the purge 1:1 preview command. Had you chosen 1440 pixel for standard-sized previews then the full-sized would have been purged (i.e. 3072/2=1536, which is greater than 1440). Now take the example of a larger camera, say a 8MP camera such as the Canon 1DMKII with an image size of 3504 by 2336 pixels. With the standard-sized set at 1680 pixels the full-size will again be purged (i.e. 3504/2=1752 pixels, which is greater than 1680 pixels). 
    Another thing worth mentioning - Lightroom will usually delay purging previews for deleted images until after the application has been closed and reopened, even then it might take a few minutes to clear the purged previews. The idea here is to ensure the previews don't get deleted whilst there's still a chance that they may be needed (e.g. you removed images by mistake then use Undo command to reinstate them). 
    Hopefully above explains why Lightroom doesn't behave as you expect. If it makes your head spin, think how much mine spun when writing it.

    The chance of an answer is inversely proportional to the length of the posting. ;)
    You do not indicate what your preview setting was while you accumulated a 12Gb preview folder. Nor do you indicate how many images are in your catalog.
    Given your screen size of 1280 (laptp?) I would set the preview size to 1440 since this is still far less than half of your D3 images.
    Cropping - I'll safely guess - has no effect on your preview size choices.
    I confess that preview sizing and purging is confusing. I avoid the confusion by shouting "more disk, mama".

  • Why does the print cue window stay open even after job is done?

    In Tiger, and every other version of OSX I have any recollection of using, the printer window opens to display what's in the cue when you select to print something. Once printing is done, this cue closes. Since installing Leopard, everytime we print from our iMac, MacBook or MBP, the print cue window stays open indefinitely after the job is done, requiring a manual closing of the window. I can't for the life of me fathom what benefit this brings or who would want this. Is this part of Leopard or a problem with our install? Something I can turn off?

    If you control-click (or right click) on the open printer queue in the Dock you can choose to have it auto close once the spool file is sent.
    As to why this is necessary in Leopard, well I haven't seen a good enough answer to date...

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • Why does the displacement effect is not appearing on my adobe muse effects menu?

    I have seen tutorials about the displacement effect but when i open the effects menu, it doesnt appear, and I dont know why, can someone help me with this issue please

    I think you may be referring to Scroll Effects. The Scroll Effects are now located in their own panel. From Muse's Window menu, choose 'Scroll Effects' to display the panel with all the options.

    32-bit what won't download? What OS? What browser. Ned is correct that using a different browser may help but virus protection can stop downloads as well as proxy servers.

  • Why wont the edit icon open so i can edit photos?

    Why wont the edit icon open so i can edit photos?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what happens when you click on the Edit button at the bottom of the iPhoto window?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    A universal fix for some issues is the following:
    1 - reboot.
    2 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    3 - delete the contents the following folder: User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    4 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks and Yosemite,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

    I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

    When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album.  However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos.  If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
    If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
    Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos.  Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.

  • 10.6.8 upgrade - I want Apple to fix it, not me have to do the work.  I no longer have access to the header menu for the desktop.  No History, no QUIT.  Is Apple aware? Planning a fix for the fix?

    I installed the 10.6.8 upgrade over the weekend and now have no access so the main desktop menu.  I am having to hit power off button to power down.  The links work for one application load after I boot up.  Cannot tell if it is is just Safari or not.  DOes Apple monitor these postings and do additional testing to correct?

    balto,
    You'll have to forgive me but being from an IT background there are certain things you take for granted, such as backups!
    That said when I really needed my Time Machine backup a couple of years ago, it did an epic fail on me.  Ever since I have been backup paranoid.
    I now have approx 6 current backups of data including one offsite.  Call me over cautious but its better to be safe than sorry!!  I now use a combination on Time Machine and Carbon Copy Cloner to produce periodic backups and also bootable clones.  With external drives being so cheap these days there really is no excuse.
    So taking on board your comments and those of others  :-
    i)     Take a backup, either via Time Machine or some other cloning route such as Carbon Copy Cloner.
    ii)     Repeat step i) but to another disk.
    iii)     Download the COMBO OS update - NOT the delta one.  It will take longer but its worth it.
    iv)     Turn off Mac
    v)     Disconnect ALL external peripherals except keyboard/mouse e.g those devices required to boot.
    Vi)     Turn off Mac
    vii)     Boot Mac in Safe mode by press shift key whilst switching on the Mac and leave shift pressed until Apple logo appears.  Mac will take longer to boot but will present user login with red Safe mode tag.  Login.
    viii)     Run a permissions repair from Disk Utility.
    ix)     Run COMBO updater and allow the Mac to reboot.
    x)     Login as normal but immediately run permissions repair again from Disk Utility.
    xi)     Reboot Mac for final time again and all should now be well.
    Think that should just about do it though as with everything be careful and use at your own risk.
