a folder in iMovie event is missing

Yesterday evening, I edited a video and it was almost ready to be shared.  I tried to share it as a file and I was told that I didn't have enough space on my hard shore (or something like that).  I go back to iMovie today to try again, only to find the program is not responding. When he did bounce back, one of my events folders was missing and the project was black with a red bar where the blue bar indicating the volume would usually be.  All brands of editing are there as if the video is still there, but since the file is hidden, the video can be seen as well.  I say hidden because the name of the folder of the event is "November," and when I go to create a folder with the same name, it will automatically change the "1 November".  Anyone know how to fix this?  I would rather not recreate this blog about 25 minutes again. Thanks in advance.

As a first step:

In the Finder, right-click on the iMovie library and select "show the contents of the package.  There is a folder with the name of the missing event?  If this isn't the case, I think he's lost.  If there is open the folder and look for a folder 'medium of origin '.  This should contain all of your imported clips.  In the case of the clips that came with other libraries of the application such as iTunes, iPhoto will be aliases pointing to the originals in the library.

Check how much space you have left on your drive with the Finder.   If its less of a few GB need to free up space before re-launch iMovie.

  • conflicts in the folder for iMovie

    Hello

    I have trouble with iMovie pending and iMovie gurus told me I should be a conflict with something in my file and recommend me to post in the forums of OS. That's why I'm here :-).

    iMovie starts new project, starting new projects, he made mistake: 'action could be done. There is no additional information on the issue".

    This happens with my user only (and I'm the admin), while this works very well with the other user.

    I already tried to reinstall iMovie, tried to remove preferences and also to restart in safe mode too (in this case iMove don't even start to say this unexpected program close), but he did not set.

    The guru of iMovie finally recommended 'another option is to go to your user library in finder and drag the preferences on the desktop folder and then restore the folder check iMovie.If which corrects iMovie and start moving individual desktop preferences and the verification of iMovie. " Fixing/rebuild files home is not my forte so you should post in the forum of discussion of El Capitan, where BONE gurus hang out. »

    (iMovie 10.1.1 - El Capitan 10.11.4 - retina 4K, 21.5 inches, end15, 3.1 GHz iMac intel 5, 16 GB of DDR3 memory)

    You can not. This URL is programmatically assigned when the file is created by Connect. The folders have the option for custom URLS.

  • Files missing after moving iMovie events from local disk to external HARD disk. Are they lost?

    Hi all

    Tonight, I tried to clear up little space on my local HARD drive and wanted to spend my events/projects of the iMovie local library to an external HARD disk, which I connected via firewire 800.

    I opened iMovie (v10.1 - current version with all updates installed). I clicked on an event to highlight and then the FILE--> COPY OF LIBRARY of selected EVENTS.

    There, I sailed on the external drive and created an iMovie new library called ReWatch2015. I copied successfully eight different events, including files from my external hard drive.

    The ultimate goal is to get rid of them on the HARD drive internal, I highlighted the 20 remaining events I wanted to move and then used the FILE--> MOVE of EVENTS at the LIBRARY and specified ReGen_2015.

    It seemed at first glance to move. In fact, he seemed to move too darn fast in my opinion. When I looked at home in the library of the external drive, they were nothing more than a string of question marks, with a message telling me that particular item is not found and re-import the original clips. It's impossible because I have not kept the original source material on my internal drive. I had asked before if they are preserved in the library of iMovie and told me Yes, so I that's why I deleted the original source material.

    Don't see no activity on the disks, I did the cmd - Z to go back. Events have now shown upward into the iMovie library internal. HOWEVER, they still have the question mark, with msg on reimport. What is scary, is that if I go to ALL projects of them have visible thumbnails. Yet, when I click on any of these thumbnails to load the project into the editor, I am back to the page of question mark again.

    Are the file on drive HARD internal, and they just disassociated projects, or two-thirds of my library of events of 2015 are now toast? I was not under any type of backup Time Machine to be able to recover them, and frankly, if they left, it is not the end of the world since I was of the .mp4 displayed on Vimeo. But, I would just assume the iMovie library intact if possible.

    Suggestions on how to recover are greatly appreciated!

    Robert

    Hi Robert

    Am having exactly the same problem on a new iMac 2016 running El Capitan: when I want to MOVE events such as you describe it, they sometimes get lost in the original library, both in the target library. Like you, I noticed that a such attempt to move just a very short time even if several GB of data play a role. Sometimes however, iMovie is able to move successfully. I my case, I had to re - import events so lost since an additional backup, I got on another external drive that I couldn't find the clips 'lost' on the HARD drive more. Very scary!

    I think it's an iMovie/El Capitan question which could be corrected with future updates. The only solution I've found is to the events of the FIRST COPY, and then check if the target is really OK and only then select the MOVE option, which will remove the original library to free up space. In addition, I plan to copy on a regular basis my library full iMovie on an extra disk to backup using the finder.

    Did you find anything in the meantime?

  • iMovie event executives to rotate 180 degrees when skimming

    iMovie 9.0.9, mid-2010 iMac, El Capitan.  Many glitches with iMovie 9.0, especially after the download El Capitan, until I found a copy of 9.0.9 on backup, some problems solved, others remain.  When skimming of clips of the event, or in hover on a clip, the image appears inverted.  Fixes bug for that?

    When you import an iMovie HD project, clips become scattered - disordered such as they appear in the timeline of iMovie HD.

    What is the latest version of iMovie 11, no newer than 9.0.9 data?  If there is, how can I get it?  Not found on any site of Apple.   I'm not planning to use iMovie 10.

    Reverse clamps are one of the many problems reported when using 9.0.9 with El Capitan. Others have included black/green frames, accidents etc. Essentially, it is not compatible with El Capitan. 9.0.9 was the last update iMovie 11 before Apple moved to iMovie 10. iMovie 11 was abandoned and will not be upgraded or patched. The only way forward is to upgrade to iMovie 10.1.1 or change your editing software. FCPX is an excellent package edition Professional and cheap at $300, considering all of its features and capabilities. It has a curve of learning from iMovie. You should consider iMovie 10 because it's a free update of 9.0.9. It has basically all the features of edition of 9.0.9, but with a redesigned user interface.

  • I have archived emails from a local folder and now they are missing

    I had maybe 100-200 emails in a local folder. I've archived them with the menu. TB flashed a message that they were in the folder "2014". That's nice. Now, where fires is folder 2014? It is not found.

    The help documents say all configure the folder location of archives on the "Copies & folders" section of the page 'account & Settings '. But "Copies & folders" does not exist for local folders. So, where the hell are my emails?

    Technically, TB did not lose messages. He has just scattered to the four winds, where they would never be found.

    He brought back the out of local folders, accounts of mail box from whence they came. There, they were archived per year in different folders.

    I managed to restore them in local folders from a backup. Either way, this procedure was not without White knuckles because I had added a subfolder from the backup, and TB just went crazy mad.

    This isn't for the faint of heart. I can attest that things can go very wrong. Don't forget to save the profile before trying it and makes no changes to the profile while tuberculosis is open.

  • Creative Cloud Desktop folder right click on the missing file Options

    Hello

    My creative Cloud DESKTOP folder does not properly since last week.  I've already lost nearly 3 hours with tech support. Share my screen and try different things.   I think that the Tech Guy was incompetent. He didn't get that question and just kept trying the same things again and again for 3 hours.


    MY FILES SYNCHRONIZE PROPERLY. THERES NO PROBLEM WITH THE SYNC.  If I drag files into the creative cloud desktop folder. They synchronize correctly in the cloud.   I can access it online without problems.

    The question that I'm going to do with the actual file.  It does not appear to be installed / working properly.   Here is a picture of the help of the Adobe site.  (Creative cloud help |) Collaborate on files and libraries)

    collaborate-folder.png

    1. notice how at the bottom left of each file / folder inside the creative cloud files folder theres a GREEN check MARK (this changes depending on the status of the file).
    2. note also when the file's right-click theres only a 'CREATIVE CLOUD"drop-down Menu with Options for display on the Web site, work together.  Sendlink etc...

    Until last week, My Creative cloud file was EXACTLY the SAME! works perfectly well.   I think that since the new update CC that he stopped doing this.

    Here is a screenshot of MY Creative Cloud Files folder

    mine.jpg

    1 Note how I don't have these icons of green check mark at the bottom left of each file/folder indicating the status of the folder/files.  (YES THE FILES ARE SYNCHRONIZED ILS SHOWS upward on THE site WEB SERVER even if I do not see the controls on the files...)

    2. you can not see in the screenshot, but if I right click on a file/folder I DO NOT have the CLOUD CREATIVE drop-down list, giving me the possibility to send a link, view site etc...

    As I said I've already spent nearly three hours with an incompetent tech guy. He just kept removing .db files, delete the coresync folder, make me Logout / I leave CC etc... for 3 hours.    After two hours, he said he had no problem and had to reexplain him the question...   A bit frustrating really.      Yes, I restarted computer several times. This does not solve the problem.

    I'm on a Pc with Windows 8.1.
    Run the latest version of creative cloud.
    my number is 0186758070

    I hope that this problem can be solved.  It was very convenient for me to click right files and send the link directly. rather than go on the website cloud server and share the link!

    Thank you

    Hi Sgtfrog83:

    Thank you very much for letting us know that your issue has been resolved after reinstalls creative cloud.  The problem is caused by Windows Explorer integration, and there are at least three applications to sync with similar integration methods and that can cause install conflicts.

    Best regards.

  • migration of events imovie to new Mac without using the Migration Wizard

    Hello

    I want to do the following:

    Migrate from iMovie events of an old MacBook Pro (10.6.8 Snow Leopard) created using iMovie ' 08

    TO

    (Yosemite 10.10.5) iMac with iMovie 10.1.1

    All events are stored on 3 external drives (Nothing on the internal drive of MBP). Disks have FireWire interfaces, I can't connect them directly to the iMac.

    The destination is another external drive, with Thunderbolt interface. I copied the serious events in 3 separate directories, but not tried opening them with iMovie. Wasn't sure if there was data stored elsewhere (in ~/Library for example) that might be needed; In addition, I didn't know if I could manually merge the 3 separate records events iMovie with the Finder, or need to do somehow with iMovie.

    I manually moved everything some time ago - I haven't used Wizard migration; I didn't have enough disk space attached to the iMac when I moved everything, so I carried on using iMovie on the old MBP.

    I googled and read several articles on the events to an external drive / to new Mac, but none of them totally covers my starting position and desired end result.

    Would appreciate any insight how to go on this issue, and how and where exactly iMovie keeps all the data you need.

    The articles are (among others):

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT202853 "update of projects and events from previous versions of iMovie in iMovie (2014).

    http://help.Apple.com/iMovie/#mov3ac6d42c "copy or move a video in your library of events to an external hard drive.

    https://support.Apple.com/kb/PH2302 "iMovie 11: copy or move video from your library of events to an external hard drive.

    https://support.Apple.com/en-us/HT203049 "move your iMovie for Mac library (2014).

    If your iMovie ' 08 projects contain media from outside the record of events (for example, from iPhoto or iTunes) then we must first using iMovie ' 08 on your old computer to "consolidate" your support so that everything is copied in the events folder.  Details for the iMovie 11 version can be found at: http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3ac6c7c9

    I don't have the ' 08 version help files, but I think it will be the same - you can check with your old Mac.

    "Disks have FireWire interfaces, I can't connect them directly to the iMac.

    FireWire adapters Thunderbolt are available for about € 30, which would use these drives on your new Mac.

    In fact, you can copy the project files and events with the viewfinder of an old external drive to the root level of the new new external drive (which should be Apple - formatted), but it is probably best to do from in iMovie ' 08, as described in the help of Apple.   Do 'copy' and not 'move' - this way you always have a backup of the original on the old disks in case of problems.

    I would like to convert the project files and the events of each of the 3 discs one at a time, creating 3 libraries separate iMovie 10.1.1.  You can always rearrange these in iMovie 10 after you have everything updated and verified.  Some people have reported the update of blocking process at any given time, so update in small batches of events and projects is much better than trying to do everything at the same time.

    In fact I would try to first simply copy one (or a small group) project and its events associated with the new external with iMovie ' 08 HD then update to ensure that it will work - from iMovie ' 08 for iMovie 10.1.1 is a big jump.

    Good luck!

    Geoff.

  • iMovie clips are original media events library after the update v10 and visible events in iMovie, but clips do not appear in iMovie

    I've updated to iMovie 10.  He created a new library.  When you use Show Package Contents, I see events and clips are original media.  When I opened the app, I see the events, but there are clips 0 indicated in each event.  How to recognize the clips?

    Hi there Jeffkant,

    Looks like you have imported content in your new iMovie library, but there is no actual clips showing events you have in your library. I thought there might be a problem with the new library, or something could have damaged the library when the import was made, so I would like to start by creating a new library, once again the disk inside your movies folder:

    iMovie (2013): work with multiple libraries

    If the problem persists with the new library, then I create a new user admin on your computer and see if you can reproduce the problem there.

    OS X El Capitan: set up users on your Mac.

    Let me know how it goes, so we can see what to do next. Thank you for using communities of support from Apple!

  • Impossible to link existing audio in imovie to new itunes media folder project

    I have an older imovie project that uses audio that has been in the itunes music folder.  I have since it consolidated in itunes media.  So, the song is more in the music folder. IMovie will link like this in the file folder rather than the media of music and he is no longer in the music.  How can I either return to the song the folder music force imovie to look for the link in the itunes media folder.  I edited the audio and would rather delete and re-import. I use imovie 10.

    Hello

    I don't know exactly what you did here, but it would seem to me you can option-do drag the song edited since the multimedia file back in the music folder (copy, no travel).
