iMovie 10.1.2: addition to the shifted music synchronized?

My first question here in the community!  Glad to be here!

I use a 27 Mac end of 2013. "  El Capitan and 10.1.2 running iMovie.

I use iMovie for about 2 years and edited with her for hundreds of hours.  I am a heavy user and myself as 'intermediary' in skills.

So on to my question.  I have a project that has the video and still images.  It has an audio track with the video, and usually, I add an audio track at bottom as well.  I want to synchronize my fixed video changes with the rhythm of the audio background track.  I do this by putting markers on the audio track and then by dragging the video/photos of these markers.  It works well (maybe there is an easier way?).

In any case, I almost always find clips that I want to add to the project after the fact.  The problem is that this hits all my changes synchronized to audio out of alignment for any change after the insertion point.

I tried pinning audio for the clips as well as to let it float free down.  Whatever it is, I hate to add them later because I have to run through the whole of the project new setting of transitions.

Any ideas?  I hope there is a solution!

Thank you for any input!

Hi, tragusa3,

iMovie 10 has no function to make clips automatically snap to beats. Because you set markers manually, I don't see any way to avoid having to readjust after adding clips to the timeline.    You want your images fixed/vids to show at specific points along an audio track to keep pace.  Add multiple clips will disrupt the sequence unless the replacement clip has the same duration as that to be moved.  That's maybe having to readjust.

If it remains the way your film can be partitioned logically, you might be able to work on a segment without disrupting the next segment.   In other words, create a new project to work on a single segment and then re-import this segment in the main project.

Maybe others will weigh with some ideas on this.

Best,

Rich

  • Satellite Pro M40: computer stops when you press the SHIFT key

    Sometimes when I press the shift key it wonder if I want to shut down the computer. It also changes the internet Explorer mode in full screen. When it arrives it will be continually for centuries and then suddenly stop. Then start again. It seems not to happen at any given time. I disabled the hot key in the Toshiba utility and which comes to the top of the Tower stops when I pressed the SHIFT key, it does not give me the option.
    It's really annoys me because I can't just think what to do.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's very strange. It is the first time I heard about this issue.
    As much as I know the Toshiba utility cannot add additional functions to shift and make this key as a stop button.
    I have gift? don't know if you have installed the 3rd party applications that can change the keyboard feature, but you should check this possibility.

    In addition can also be a defective hardware. Maybe something wrong with the keyboard controller. But of course the diagnostic test is necessary.

  • I can't connect to my mac because the SHIFT key is down. Then he showed the top letter and can not connect... The mac is also overheating. I went to the apple store and they said that they cannot fix and need to send to the factory. Connection of same slo

    I just used my mac. I bought it on January 2014.

    A few months ago I couldn't connect to my mac more. There is nothing special on my mac to record.

    He was showing the wrong password when I tried to connect to my mac. It is overheating sometimes without help.

    So, I brought it to the apple store and they said that the shift key is down and therefore superior letter is all the time. and they could not help me open on the inside. Apple store guys suggested me to display somewhere or send it to the factory.

    My question is

    (1) what should I do

    (2) if I send to the factory or should go to the repair shop.

    you guys have an idea what the problem with my mac?

    I suggest you send to the factory, or if you have an apple authorized dealer / repair shop to fix the SHIFT key first, then a glance as to why the fan is still running hot.

    Maybe something has damaged the keyboard (shift key) area and also the fan internal.

    You can't have something special on the computer, but I'd always spend extra money to repair.

    The sooner, the better.

    If you need take photos or documents off the power the computer have you tried to connect an external keyboard to type your password?

  • Web development Toolbox prevents me from using the letter upercase, special characters and all that requires the use of the SHIFT key. Help.

    whenever I press the SHIFT key, the web development Toolbox opens. I am unable to use the letter upercase, special characters and everything that requires the SHIFT key. It's really annoying me... i can't even use an exclamation mark111111

    The sounds you have a sticky key which is in the pressed state.

    Do you mean the box tools that should open via Ctrl + Shift + K or open more to the Toolbox that is displayed via Ctrl + F2?

    Try to press the keys involved several times, see the Web Developer menu for the shortcut keys.

    Have you tried to close and restart Firefox or restart the computer?

  • I missed the SHIFT key and press several keys in the lower corner of my keyboard LH. Firefox split up into several iterations, and I had to reboot.

    I missed the SHIFT key and press several buttons in the lower left corner of my keyboard. Firefox has lost the tab that I was using and divided into a separate iteration for each other (plus two I had closed). I could not recover and had to close all but one of them and restore all my tabs.

    What I had done and how I should have recovered?

    First, you need to update to Firefox 18.0.1 Firefox updated to the latest version. The version you are on is bug and little course.

    Second, it looks like you may have entered groups of tabs. Use tab groups to organize a large number of tabs is that look familiar?

  • Firefox between information in research and the location of connection as if the SHIFT key is down.

    When you enter in the search bar, bar website or a website login Firefox acts like the "shift" key is pressed to prevent that information to register correctly.

    Hi Cor - el
    The problem seems to have disappeared with the upgrade to V17.0. It must have been a conflict between my WinXP and V16.0.2 that the problem appeared when the upgrading to V16.0.2 and disappeared with V17.0.
    I have not had the problem with Win7 on another machine.

    I will mark the problem as solved when I have used Fx for a few days and the problem does nor re-occur.
    

    Thanks for your help.

    No - because it works in Mode safe mode, this means an extension is probably to blame. See http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

  • Satellite U400-22Z - random character of space in addition to the letters types

    Hello!

    On a whole new Satellite U400-22Z by pressing the letters on the keyboard sometimes it types a space character in addition to the letter pressed after the letter. for example, by typing the word "test" it may look like in "you st" or "t" or your "t" (although if the problem appears, it allways inserts space at the same location in a word give, then it would always be "t's" If that Word is typed several times). the problem occurs randomly, sometimes, that the problem does not appear for an entire session or day, sometimes several times after another. the probleam appears in several programs (IE, explorer, firefox, Word, even to the connection of the user to the start!)

    I tried (after talking with toshiba support) and an update - chip and bios does not work remove the problem. even after a complete roll-back to the original state of pre-instaled/factory using the disk HARD recovery has failed. It is very difficult to locate/pinpoint the problem to some show because the problem might appear only a few days and then "strike" again...
    I am running vista home 32 on the laptop, and given that the bug appears when using only the installed software origin I dosent seem to be caused by something other than the original software...

    Any help would be greatly apreciated!
    Tankxs everyone!

    Hello

    You must update the BIOS mate.
    I am owner of U400 and I did update the BIOS as well.
    He solved some annoying problems.

    Hello

    I think in this case you need a new keyboard because there is no single room for the keyboard and only the entire keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider.

    Then you should get in touch with the guys and ask again keyboard. Usually the keyboard isn't if expensive so Don t you worry not about it. ;)

  • Satellite C660 - the SHIFT key does not work

    Hello

    I have a problem with a Satellite C660.
    The keyboard, I cannot use the SHIFT key. After you have installed windows everything worked properly, the problem recurs after a few days. Practically the SHIFT key does not work.
    On the one hand I'm the A and the other side works like ESC.

    Help me I'm crazy.
    Thank you.

    Hello

    To me that sounds more like a keyboard failure, I can't imagine that it could be linked to the question of the windows operating system do you have tested an external USB keyboard.

    Please test this. In this case, you can check if it s really a software problem.
    If the USB keyboard works correctly, it means that your internal keyboard is malfunctioning.

  • Dysfunction of the SHIFT key on Satellite U400-15B

    My laptop suddenly started to behave strangely. Pressing Shift left moves the cursor move to the left of the screen, while the right shift causes a jump at the end of the next line?
    This means that I can not tape anything without the text becomes jumbled, as words for one place end up at the beginning of a line, if they are capitalized.

    I have an external keyboard and that works very well, without the error. I also did a full scan with Norton 360 and get clear.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    Did you check if your caps lock shift has not been activated?
    Try to use the FN + F10, Fn + F11 and FN + F12 key combination.

    After that, try again the Shift button and check how it works.
