Yellowish filter when opening iMovie projects created by the iMovie 4 or 5

I open the old iMovie project created by version 4 (maybe 5), in iMovieHD. There is a warning telling me that "The project was saved with an older version of iMovie. Opening it in this version will cause it to be upgraded, which will make it unreadable by older versions. Are you sure you want to open it?" I click OK and open and the clips/timeline come up, BUT - in the main window the clips look (and play) as if covered by a yellow filter. The projects are fairly recent (2005), created with the same camera I am using now - there was no problem at all last year. The only thing that has changed is that I have upgraded to iLife 6. Could anyon please help/explain what's going on?
Thank you very much!!!!!!

I had the same exact problem, only my "filter" color was purple! It was easily solved though.
This was the answer that worked for me...
"It was pointed out in another thread that this has something to do with the playback setting in iMovieHD.
Go to Preferences->Playback
and change from the "Highest" setting, which seems to be set by default, to one of the others ("High" works for me). The purple cast goes away."
Please post back and let us know if this worked for you.

When I go to save my unfinished imovie project, neither of the "imovie projects" or "imovie events" are visible where they should be. Why is this?

When I go to save my unfinished imovie project, neither of the "imovie projects" or "imovie events" are visible where they should be. Why is this?

The latest version (iMovie 10) doesn't have iMovie projects and iMovie events folders - these were for iMovie 9 and earlier. In iMovie 10 Projects are in Events and Events are in Libraries. When you quit iMovie the current status of your projects and events are automatically saved in the library so there is nothing to do. The default location for libraries is in ~ / Movies folder but you can put them anywhere, such as on an external drive . If you want to backup the library you can make a copy of it on a separate disk or memory stick using the Finder.

I Don't Want "Creating Overview" For audio when Opening A Project

when opening a project , is there a way to turn creating overview off? i have it turned off when recording already. i don't want to have to wait when booting up project , to wait for audio overview that i don't need
thanks

OK, here's what I'd suggest...
1. Find the Apple Loops folder on your system. On my system it's in:
HD > Library > Audio > Apple Loops
There's another in:
HD > Library > Audio > Apple Loops > Apple > Apple Loops for Soundtrack Pro
2. CMD-I on these folders and see who the 'owner' is. If the name listed is not the name of your home folder, then unlock the lock and change the owner to the name-of-your-home-folder.
3. Click the disclosure triangle by "Details:" and then, after you've changed the owner, click "Apple to enclosed items"
From that point on you should not be getting the error message.
HOWEVER... I've found that sometimes the waveform overview for certain "FX" (as listed in the Apple Loops browser within Logic) will not be rendered. That's a topic for another day though...

My iMovie project is in the finder but will not open!

I was finishing up a project in iMovie '11 that I had been working on for several weeks, when my computer made me restart. When I reopened iMovie my older projects were listed but this one was gone. I went into the finder and found the project still in the iMovie Project folder as a .rcproject, yet when I try to open it, iMovie opens and shows the other projects but not this one. I have tried repairing permissions, I tried deleting that iMovie preference file that I saw in other forums and I tried transferring the project to another computer to see if it would open there. But when I did this, all my other projects would show up except for this one. Can someone please help me to open this project?? It's really important. Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Are you running iPhoto 7 (08) or iPhoto 6? iPhoto 08 has events instead of rolls. What do you see when you double click on the thumbnail?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Adobe Premiere CC crashes when opening a project file .... error 3697 . [was:Adobe Premiere CC]

There was a problem sending the command to the program when opening Microsoft Project 2010 files

When opening MS Project 2010 files from the file and print server, I receive "There was a problem sending the command to the program." Copy the same file to my local drive and the file opens fine. This can be repeated by several other
users. Created a simple project file and once the size hit 1 MB, the error appeared. The error appears on all files over 1 MB.
I am a domain admin, so it is not a rights issue. This does not seem to be a network latency issue, the file copies extremely fast.
Any ideas?

This message appears to be caused by Windows Explorer trying to send old-fashioned DDE messages to the Application.
Since MS Project has no "Ignore DDE messages" setting you might want to go change the compatibility settings for WinProj.EXE (and any shortcut to it) to Windows 7 or greater. Hopefully then Windows Explorer will stop trying to send DDE messages.
Another possible culprit is older versions of the WinZip explorer extensions - I would disable them as well.
Good luck,
James.

Pages 5.5.1: When opening a document created with Pages '09 (Version 4.0) with Pages 5.5.1 the page header and the page footer are deleted. How can this be prevented? Or is this a bug in Pages 5.5.1?

Pages 5.5.1: When opening a document created with Pages '09 (Version 4.0) with Pages 5.5.1 the page header and the page footer are deleted. How can this be prevented? Or is this a bug in Pages 5.5.1?

Same problem here (no graphics in header or footer) and the problem has been reported months ago. It is another bug/feature lost when Apple moves from 09 to the iCloud-compatible versions. Complain to Apple, you may have better chance than me and they may finally listen to their users....

LV2012 crashes when opening LV2010 project containing OOP and dynamic FPGA references

I have a project that was written under LV2010 and has no problems that I am aware of. This project contains OOP and dynamic FPGA references. I am trying to upgrade this project to LV2012. When opening this project under LV2012 (or any subVI containing OOP) I get an error message, as shown in the attached screenshot. Has anyone else observed this problem? I haven't found any relevant postings on this forum yet.
My project is quite large, with many accessors.
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Thank you for your response, but the Discussion Forums link that you provided refers to a problem that occurs when exiting a running executable. My problem is different. I am simply opening up a LV2010 project using LV2012. No running of my program is involved.
Anyway, after several days of work, I narrowed down the cause of the LabVIEW crash. My code contained a Disable structure, and within that Disable structure there was a subVI that had an unwired object terminal (set to dynamic dispatch). Deleting the subVI in the Disable structure eliminated the LabVIEW crashing. Weird behavior.

Drummer region starts with fill on 1 bar when open new project.

Drummer region starts with fill on 1 bar when open new project
and if I copy a region, say 10 times, they all starts with a fill.
So my work around is to delete the automatic generated regions
and make new ones. If I need to copy many regions I copy one
at a time. Using latest LX.
Anyone experienced this? Do I miss something in the process?

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

IMovie project is "lost" on iMovie project listing.

iMovie project is "lost" on iMovie project listing. Can find in in "my files" but can't see it in iMovie or open it using iMovie. Help!

See this thread, then follow the trail of links I've provided to numerous topics where others are reporting this problem:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4846004?tstart=0
Unfortunately, we don't have a solution as yet, other than following baldric007's advice above regarding using a Time Machine backup (if you have one, or another type of backup).
To summarise for other members here - Projects disappear from iMovie's Project Library, but are still listed in Finder in the Movies/iMovie Projects folder. Double-clicking on the project in Finder opens iMovie, but the project itself doesn't open. Personally, I've also tried to open the project in Final Cut Pro X to no avail (iMovie projects can normally be imported to FCP X). In my case, FCP X quit when I tried to import the project.
As a safeguard (even if you are running a backup), it is advisable to create a duplicate of your current project before closing iMovie and shutting down. There is no guarantee that the duplicate won't also disappear from the Project Library though. To create a duplicate, while in Project Library view (not Edit view), click on the project in the list, then in iMovie's menu select File > Duplicate Project. A copy will be placed in the Project Library with the same name as the original, but with a number appended. You can change the name if desired.
To ensure that Apple is advised of this problem by as many as possible, from iMovie's menu select "iMovie > Provide iMovie Feedback" and complete the online form.

A number of imported photos from iphoto in imovie project all show the same image whilst the preview before dragging them in is correct. What could be the problem?

A number of photos from iphoto used in imovie project all show the same image when playing back. The previw when clicking and dragging them and also the pictures in the storyline. Yet when playing the clip a previous immage keeps on appearing. What could be the problem?

You created a mess and there is no solution - with the actions you have taken those photos are gone unless you have access to them from some other source - they existed in two place - in your iPhoto library and on your backup drive - you have traded the backup drive and restore an earlier iPhoto library so all you have is what you have

When opening Bridge (CS6) I get the following message: "Bridge encountered a problem and is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache Preferences to correct the situation" I tried and after selecting purge cache it does not a

When opening Bridge (CS6) I get the following message: "Bridge encountered a problem and is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache Preferences to correct the situation" I tried and after selecting purge cache it does not allow me to select OK. Also Bridge keeps saying "Building Criteria" with the spinning wheel and nothing happens. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Please help:)

Maybe a Preferences reset can help:
Numerous program settings are stored in the Adobe Bridge preferences file, including display, Adobe Photo Downloader, performance, and file-handling options.
Restoring preferences returns settings to their defaults and can often correct unusual application behavior.
Press and hold the Ctrl key (Windows) or the Option key (Mac OS) while starting Adobe Bridge.
In the Reset Settings dialog box, select one or more of the following options:
Reset Preferences
Returns preferences to their factory defaults. Some labels and ratings may be lost. Adobe Bridge creates a new preferences file when it starts.
Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache
Purging the thumbnail cache can help if Adobe Bridge is not displaying thumbnails properly. Adobe Bridge re-creates the thumbnail cache when it starts.
Reset Standard Workspaces
Returns Adobe predefined workspaces to their factory default configurations.
Click OK, or click Cancel to open Adobe Bridge without resetting preferences.

BEST WISHES

First follow the instructions in this support article.
If the iPhoto library is the source of your desktop pictures, it may need to be rebuilt, or you may need to update the iPhoto application to the latest version.
Otherwise, continue as below.
Back up all data.
In the Finder, hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following item, if it exists:
Caches/com.apple.systempreferences
and move the following item to the Desktop:
Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
Launch System Preferences and test. If you still have the issue, put the item on the Desktop back where it came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the item.

How to open a file created at the server through form/report at client end

How to open a file created at the server through form/report at client end
Dear Sir/Madame,
I am creating a exception report at the server-end using utl file utility. I want to display this report at the client end. A user doesn't have any access to server. Will u please write me the solution and oblige me.
Thanks
Rajesh Jain

One way of doing this is to write a PL/SQL procedure that uses UTL_FILE to read the file and DBMS_OUTPUT to display the contents to the users.
Cheers, APC
