Please help I have hours and hours of precious memories that I have stored to treat "on a rainy day. I did not use iMovie 11 version (9.0.9) since about Cougar? Now using El Captain 10.11.4

Thank you in anticipation

The reason for your problem is that iMovie version 9 is not compatible with El Capitan.  El Capitan only works with iMovie 10 (with the purple icon).

iMovie 10 is very different from previous versions and has lost some features but won others.  The negative publicity is mainly about frustration with the changes to the user interface, help the poorest to burn DVDs, corrected aspect ratio 16:9 and the fall of some older cameras support.  Your camera model is shown as it is supported.  (I preferred iMovie 10 and went in 2013).

When you run the first iMovie 10 it will offer you to update all of your iMovie projects 9 existing.  It will create a new iMovie 10 library but let your iMovie 9 project files and unchanged events so that they could, for example, be copied to a mac running Yosemite and be used in iMovie 9.

    There may be a compatibility issue with some of your
    source files. Convert your audio files to the. WMA
    format before you import into Movie Maker can be useful to
    a try.

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    Also, before you save it... go to... Tools / Options / Compatibility
    tab and disable all filters / OK.

    It may be interesting to try to save the project in DV - AVI format...
    (the file size will be much larger, but the result may be better)

  • Preview screen shot black during editing movies in Windows Movie maker.

    Original title: technical problems with Windows Movie Maker

    I tried to make a video using Windows Movie Maker, but the program guard making it to where I can't use it.  I just changed the audio clips and video and all of a sudden, the preview turned black screen and when I press the play button, nothing happens.  I have no idea how to fix this, but if I restart the program or even my computer, the situation does not change.  Basically, the play button does not work.  Any ideas on how to fix it? My project is due for school tomorrow...

    I tried fixing video filters using the link you provided, but that did not help.  I finally found the problem, however.  I was using a MOV file, which apparently tends to have problems when you put it in Movie Maker, so I converted the files of a different type and they works perfectly.  Thanks for your help!

  • Screen went black during use.  What can be the problem?

    That may be the problem if the screen turns black during use?

    First of all, if you use an iPhone 4 as indicated in your profile, it cannot be updated to iOS 9.3.

    Regarding the screen gone black, try a reset.

    Press and hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons for at least ten seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

    If again, the screen becomes black, it is very possible that this is a problem with the hardware for a date of the iPhone 4.

  • Windows Movie Maker preview screen is black! (is not black when read by Windows Movie Player)

    Hello.

    I used Windows Movie Maker 6.0 for about a month now to make videos and then upload them to YouTube.
    I had no problems at all until a few days before, when Vista says it wants to install an update (Service Pack 2), so it installed and then came up on Windows Movie Maker and when I tried to make a video, the preview screen was black and you could only hear the sound (no video). The clips are a gesture of challenge of the .avi files, but when I put them in Windows Movie Maker, they turn into audio files for some reason any! :(
    Please help I need solve this problem as soon as possible!
    Thank you

    Open the Device Manager by following the steps in the first link I provided in the previous answer, and then expand the graphicsoption. Your graphics driver is listed under this category. If you double click the driver that is on the list, it will open the driver properties dialog box. You can go to the driver tab it and then click on the option to restore the drivers to roll your graphics driver back and see if this helps you.

    You can also uninstall and reinstall the driver from there. To reinstall the driver, you will need to download it from the website of the manufacturer of the computer.

    It will be useful.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
    field efforts.

    Hey there
    I have a little problem with my computer, when I start a game, more games, age of empires 3, nfs most wanted, grand theft auto: vice city etc, the screen turns black during the game and then corrects itself after a few seconds, it becomes boring xtremely, especially when you are in the middle of something.
    After that the game closed in the lower right of the screen in the taskbar, a pop up appears saying my display driver has stopped responding, resulting in at least 5 different file names that have stopped responding.

    I have a Toshiba TFT screen with direct x 10(which might be the problem with the older games,i think!).
    Any help would be appreciated.
    My computer configuration is the graphics card with 1.5 GB of RAM, vista and intel 950 processor intel dual core.

    Have you tried to play a game designed to run under Vista OS or you have noticed that play WXP games on your laptop preinstalled Vista. If possible, try to get the Vista game and test it again.

    I wonder if something goes wrong, while playing older games WXP on Vista platform.

  • Screen turns black during the installation of Windows 8 on Dell Latitude E6400

    Hello

    I have a Dell Latitude E6400

    The specifications are:

    Intel Centrino 2

    4 GB OF DDR2 RAM

    HARD DRIVE 160 GB

    Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz

    NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M 256 MB DDR2

    I'm doing a clean install of Windows 8 pro 64 bit. The problem is that when I get to the stage where the installation application to connect to a wifi, all of a sudden, the screen goes black and then nothing happens. Sometimes I am able to move on to the next step where the installation process asks if I would like to use express settings or customize it. The same thing happens on this stage too. I could not go any further than this step.

    I tried dozens of times, even tried 2 different iso files and event tried a 32-bit Windows 8.

    Same thing happens evrytime, black screen and then nothing. I wasn't able to find that everything related to the internet.

    One last thing, if it's a problem of display driver, I can't set either because I already formatted my HARD drive.

    Can someone help me please:(c'est vraiment frustrant.)

    Thank you

    Hi shayanjalil,

  • 2015.3 mac - video disappears, executives dropped during playback

    Looks like Adobe precipitated another set of applications that were not ready.  My problem is different and less severe than the others, which is why I started a new thread.

    My sequence monitor goes black occasionally and regularly during playback.  Quit and restart the application bring him temporarily.

    I also have a jerky video playback on sequences that played well in the 2015.2 version.

    Related issue: bridge CC 2015.3 crashes at startup.  Bug report page is an endless loop.  Forum messages flooded in constant crash reports on Mac and Windows.  No option in the Setup program CC to roll back to 2014 CC or CC 2015.2 CS6 does work, however.

    OSX 10.10.5 - GRAM MacPro3 32, 1 - Quadro K5000

    Kevin, I'm almost 100% certain my KPs are caused by the NVidia driver from the Web, I posted above.    I am not as convinced the CUDA latest driver is a culprit as well, but when I installed it, got a KP and immediately back to a previous version, I have not had since.

    My crash logs have NVidia in the first 10 lines, which to my knowledge, are usually the extension or the processes involved.  I don't remember see GPUSniffer on any of them, but I can keep an eye on, if it happens again.

    BTW, I've worked on Pr 2013.3 for these last two days, and the question I posted on seems to have disappeared.  No black screens and frames do not fall on the playback of the sequence.  I don't have an explanation why.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I'm working on a video, including a greenscreen. That is why I use the ultra key to make the transparent green screnscreen. Whenever I touch the slider "soften" Ultra key, windos preview blackens. I can't get it back to normal until I restart the first. Version 2015.4.

    This issue is being investigated. So far it has been reproduced with acceleration GPU on Windows. What is the case on your system? Also, could you provide your operating system, graphics card and if you use CUDA or OpenCL?

    A possible solution is to go into project settings > General and set the Mercury Playback Engine software only, when you use the parameter to soften.
