Troubleshooting Tips for the Common iMovie Issues

iMovie is a video editing software application sold by Apple Inc. for the Mac and iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPad Mini and iPod Touch). Being one of the most known video editing tools, iMovie is easy to use. However, sometimes people still find there are some problems with it. Whenever you encounter problems while using iMovie, you're supposed to calm down and find the solution quickly. Below we're going to discuss about the top iMovie issues you might encounter as well as the solutions.

1. iMovie keeps crashing

The “iMovie keeps crashing” issue may be due to several reasons:

iMovie project files got corrupted - Trash the corrupted files and add the right ones.
Problem in iMovie Cache folder - Trash Cache.mov and Cache.plist. Then creating a new User-Account and log into this. Then iMovie will create all pref. and cache files new and error free.

Preferences are wrong - Repair Preferences.

2. Poor camera connection

You will at more than one instance find that your camera's connectivity to the iMovie is not up to the required standards. That is one of the problems that you will with no doubt have to deal with when you are importing your footage directly from the camera. The problem could have arisen from a variety of factors that include incompatibility of the USB cable on either the iMovie or camera.

The best solution for that is replacing the USB cable with another output option like FireWire. If you are using a camcorder, it will require nothing more than using the guidelines given out in the user manual. If followed strictly, it will not be challenging having the camera sync well with the iMovie.

3. Lacks sound

Never take anything for granted that your iMovie project must have quality sound. You will be surprised to note that leave alone having poor quality sound, there will be no sound at all. Wrong preferences can cause this problem so you need to make sure that all the settings are adjusted properly. Another cause can be incompatible format which is not supported by iMovie. The solution will be converting the files to a format that is friendly to iMovie and the sound will play normally, you can use iFastime Video Converter Ultimate for Mac to help you solve this problem by converting videos and audios to iMovie more supported videos and audios quickly on your Mac.

4. Sound in iMovie is out of sync

For best synchronization, it is recommended that 16-bit sound is used with iMovie. If you imported sound with 12-bit audio, change the settings on your camera and then re-import your footage. Then extract the audio from your footage. You can go to the “Edit” menu and click “Select All”. Right click to open the dropdown menu, and select “detach audio”. After that, you can sync them up manually.

5. Files distortion

Whether its video or audio files, they might suffer distortion if the right exporting and importing procedures are not followed. You might get the video quality looking questionable while audio will not be very clear as you expect. To avoid that from happening, make sure you export or import files of right size that the iMovie can handle without damaging the original quality. Also, everything touching on editing has to be done in the timeline and nowhere else. That is the natural editing section in iMovie and any violation will cause file distortion.
