• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Your Mac's Specs
24" imac/ 2.16GHz/ 2 GB/ 500 GB HDD/ NVIDIA 7600
So, I got my new 24" iMac yesterday and I love it:Cool: Today I decided to use iMovie HD to take some video from my minidv and turn it into a 'great movie' project.
After I uploaded the movie in to the program, it was letterboxed, and at that point I saved the project and went out for some errands. When I returned home and attemped to open the project, it said all my clips were in the trash.

1) How did this happen?
2) Can it be fixed easily without me actually having to recapture the video?

Thanks in advance!
