iMovie suddenly stopped working properly when editing

Hello

I worked on a project basis in iMovie when it froze and stopped working properly.  I decided to force smoke but every time I have opened since then, it still does not work right.  (Can't see the project in the upper left window, can't see the cue for where you are in the video, cannot change and several other things).

I tried the things:

Restarted my computer twice

Tap, it turns off and unplugged for more than 20 minutes before restarting

Has sought the apple.com.imovie.plist files in the preferences, but they do not exist (so can't remove them)

I use a macbook pro with the latest operating system and running iMovie 09 (version 8.0.6)

It was working fine until something "reversed".  I think I just change a duration of the clip when he went weird on me.  It was supposed to be a very simple project that I could finish quickly and now it turns into a "big thing"!   Advice please!

I tried and it seemed to work.  The only part I did was the film the iMovie file plans on my desk.  Then I edited the clip and it exported fine.  I had trouble getting images will appear and abandoned on that because it was not necessary in this case...

I had the same problem and today met with a representative of Apple Care. Here's what he told me. Quit iMovie; go to computer > movies and move the folder of projects iMovie on the desktop. Open iMovie; Create a new test project using footage of the event library. Attempt to export it or do whatever it is you were doing in the crash (selection of titles below a certain rank in the window of securities done as well mine accident that export). If you do these things, and iMovie goes not down, the problem is caused by a corrupted movie project. (Although the representative wouldn't say, iMovie is originally the corruption - and the problem lies in securities - information on this below). Just have something corrupted in the project library will make the program crash, even if you are working on a new project. You must re-create your file piece by piece, see if it exports after each addition to see if the new addition is at the origin of the problem (choose the film because it's faster). I managed to recover all the video edited more than transitions by clicking on a movie clip in the corrupt project and selecting all and copying and importing into a new project (even if in the meantime, I had to open and close iMovie to drag this project corrupted on the desktop as it kept crashing). I discovered that a particular type of headline - organic - was this project and program crash - all of the titles. When I tried it add to the project rebuilt, it crashed. When I went to the old file was corrupted and tried to remove this title, it crashed. When I tried to remove the clip that had this title on this subject in the former, it crashed. The transitions that I used worked well (although not sure if all of them would be). Music, photos, excerpts from films, etc. all beautiful. The problem with iMovie and it needs a fix! But I was able to restore my project - I like less the style of the title - and export using this method.

  • Satellite L850 - webcam suddenly stopped working

    The web cam on my Satellite L850 has suddenly stopped working.

    It does not appear in Device Manager;
    I downloaded the latest driver on the Toshiba site;

    Even if you have not changed the settings in the BIOS, you must Access the BIOS to make sure that the webcam is turned on it!

    I also recommend the suite of this workaround:
    Uninstall the webcam software
    Uninstall the VAP
    Uninstall all software needed the webcam (Skype, etc...)
    Now, restart and install CCLeaner (cleaning of freeware software)
    Reboot once more.
    Run CCleaner and clean the system and the registry.
    Reset
    Now follow with installation of VAP
    Reset
    Install the webcam software
    Reset
    Test webcam.

  • Why my Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 suddenly stopped working

    I was with my mouse ended last night & my mouse was working properly, but during a transaction, it suddenly stopped working.

  • Acer Aspire R7: Touchscreen suddenly stopped working

    Hey everybody,

    I have an Aspire R7 (running 64-bit Windows 8). Yesterday morning my touchscreen suddenly stopped working.

    After each start, I see an error in the event log stating something like "Driver\WUDFRd could not load the driver for the device HID\VID_0483 & PID_91D1 & Col01\7 & 1b0945e0 & 0 & 0000.

    In Device Manager there is no device showing an error or something. In the category "Monitor" it is only a PnP monitor listed - shouldn't the TouchInput unit shown here? Edit: I also looked through the HID devices: the appliance with the ID hardware event log message is not there, too.

    I tried reinstalling the drivers HID-monitor using Acer Recovery Manager, but nothing else happens after showing some information like 'installation'. Also, there is no change in Device Manager.

    I also removed the "PnP Monitor' of Device Manager and began a 'search for new hardware", but that doesn't lead to the "PnP Monitor' be reinstalled.

    I also perform a factory reset, but that did not help, as well.

    I would really appreciate help from anyone. I'm at work now, so I wouldn't be able to test stuff until about 17:00 (MEST).

    Kind regards

    Jan

    I found the reason of my touch screen doesn't respond do not: if I position the screen in a very precise angle - 'almost' tablet mode - the screen reacts to the keys and of the previously disabled HID devices becomes active. I had sent in my laptop for repair after a default display - apparently in some sort the touch sensor was not back in place correctly when the screen has been replaced

    Seems that now I have to send my laptop in another repair (making three repairs for this laptop - the default mentioned display occurred after the motherboard has been replaced by the same Acer repair center)

  • detected external display suddenly stopped working - displays black screen

    original title: detected external display suddenly stopped working

    Hello

    I have searched in several forums, but have not been able to completely solve this problem.  It has been set provisionally and has not yet.
    This system I have:
    HP TouchSmart tx2 tablet pc with Windows Vista Service Pack 2 x 64-bit (Home Premium)
    AMD Turion (tm) X 2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile ZM - 82, 2.2 GHz
    ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card
    I have been working for more than a year with a monitor flat screen Dell ST2310 external monitor and works very well with the setting "use external display only.  From one minute to the next two screen went black so I forced a restart and again the same problem.  I decided to manually disconnect the external monitor by unplugging the VGA cable from the laptop that turns on automatically to the main display as it would if I am disconnected display.  When I connected the VGA cable again the same question in the two screens were entirely black.  I unplugged once more the VGA cable if I could change the settings in Windows mobility.  I plugged back in the VGA cable after changing the settings of "external display only" to 'mirror' devices and after playing for a bit, with the Windows Mobility Center, I had the external display to work again my regular settings: "external display only.  This solution lasted a day and now works in the main screen and the external screen is completely black.
    I tried in vain to solutions:
    -Change VGA cables continues to experience the same issue.
    -Tested according to the specifications and Dell monitor Monitor works fine if the backlight is not the problem.
    -Records update for ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card and driver generic PnP Monitor and Dell ST2310.
    -Uninstalled ATI Catalyst Manager and re install now as AMD Vision Engine Control Center.
    -Checked AMD Vision Engine Control Center recognizes the connected external display.
    -Uninstalled the driver Dell ST2310 and re installed the driver.
    -On the screen settings have tried to extend the desktop on the external screen (second)
    Now, this is what's going on and don't know how to fix it:
    -Windows Mobility Center detects a monitor external, even when the VGA cable is disconnected.
    -When it detects the external display it sometimes detects it as DELL ST2310, sometimes as a generic Non - PnP monitor.
    -Sometimes under "Monitor" in the Device Manager, there are several monitors generic Non - PnP contained also the Dell ST2310 and generic PnP monitor.
    -When the external monitor is connected, the screen is completely black and does not work even after changing the settings Windows Mobility or Fn F4.

  • Internal speakers Satellite C640 suddenly stopped working

    Hi friends,

    My satellite c640, internal speakers suddenly stopped working but works fine when the headphones or external sources are connected
    Is this a hardware problem?

    I m using win 7 64 bit and I tried to install the drivers but seems to be a hardware problem

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I don't know if it is a hardware issue of m.
    You may need to check certain settings.

    In Control Panel-> sound-> the Read tab.
    You should see the speakers selected as the default device.
    You can also click these speakers to the right and you should see a few options:
    Speaker Setup
    test
    Disable
    and so on.

    Test the speaker first. In my case, a short tone is displayed. You can also mark the speaker and click the properties button. You will see a second window with tabs. Check the second tab called LEVEL. Here, you can change the sound level.

    What happen exactly when you try to reinstall the sound driver? You get errors?

  • Satellite C650 - sound suddenly stopped working

    Hello.

    I bought this laptop the month last November.
    in any case, around a week or two ago, the noise suddenly would not work.

    He started making strange noises when I put in the headphones and speakers just made no noise at all never.
    I did a lot of weird things - like system restore, reinstall audio drivers but nothing worked until I updated the bios, then everything went well and the sound worked again.

    However, today, the sound suddenly stopped working again. I tried to re - install the current bios but InsydeFlash says: "the version of the ROM file is the same BIOS version" and just closes.

    I searched the internet for an older version of the bios, but when I try to install it, InsydeFlash said: 'the version of the ROM file is not newer than the version of the BIOS' and of course, I know that but then it closes too!

    I'm not really good at computers or anything, any help at all would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I recommend checking some options first;
    -check if mute is not activated
    -check if all the volume controls are set to a higher value
    -check if the sound using headphones

    If this is not successful, you must reinstall the audio driver.
    First go to Device Manager and uninstall the audio driver. Restart the device
    Download the audio driver from the Toshiba page, then reinstall it. Reboot once again and test the sound.
