iMovie '08 and '09 are a complete rewrite of Apple's movie editing sofware and offers a new model for creating movies. It sports a new look and provides a fast and easy way create a basic video quickly. Unfortunately, this new version does not support plug-ins such as the Slick software. Look here for more information.

Yes, the Slick software works with iMovie 6. You can get updates here. New purchases already include these updates.

The new Macintosh models with an Intel processor use a version of iMovie that requires Intel versions of plug-ins. The Slick plug-in are now "universal binaries" to support the Intel Macs, as well as Macs with a PowerPC processor (G3, G4 or G5). Current customers can get the updates for Intel Macs here.

New online purchases after 7/14/2006 already include the universal binary versions.

In the update for QuickTime 7.3.1 (or later), Apple removed the support for playing back Flash files in QuickTime. This has been part of QuickTime since 1999, but Apple removed this capability with no warning to developers or users. Several of the Slick plug-ins make extensive use of the Flash capabilities in QuickTime, and require Flash to display and render some titles, transitions and effects.

Right now the only solution that Apple provides is to downgrade to QuickTime 7.3. To do this, Apple requires you to reinstall Mac OS X.

We're investigating other ways to bring back these capabilities without the use of Flash, but this may require a major rewrite of the plug-ins. The plug-ins affected are Wild FX titles (Vols. 5, 7 & 8), Ani-Mattes (Vol.8), Object Wipes (Vol.9) and Transitions in Vol. 10. Send us a note and we'll let you know as soon as we have more information.

If you need to re-download your purchased software after the initial 24-hour download period, please contact support@geethree.com with your payment order number (8 digits long, included on your email receipt) and we'll send you a new link to download the software.

If you just updated OS X or are installing on a new computer, the likely cause is that you are using an older version of the Slick software.

Please go to our iMovie update page to get the latest version.

This is most likely due to a permissions problem with the Library/CFMSupport folder. The Slick installer needs to place some support files in that folder. The easiest solution is to run the Disk Utility application from Apple and Repair Permissions.

If things are still not working, temporarily remove the Library/CFMSupport folder and run the Slick installer. After the installation is complete, move the contents of the old CFMSupport folder into the new folder created after the Slick software was installed.

The file that you download should either be a .dmg file. Usually this file gets converted automatically by your web browser. But if the file is a .bin, it first needs to be converted using StuffIt Expander. It is a free download here.

If Toast gets launched when you try to open the file, the system default for your system has been changed by the Toast installer. That installer changes Toast as the default application to open all .img and .dmg files. The solution is to select the Slick .img or .dmg file in the Finder. Under the File menu select Get Info. The under Open With, change the application to DiskImageMounter. If this does not work, then use the Disk Utility application to open the Slick .img or .dmg file.

Just send an email to support@geethree.com and we’ll be glad to help out. Be sure to include as much information as possible on your previous order to help us get the software to you quickly.

If the Slick transitions and effects don't appear, this means iMovie was not able to find the Slick plug-in files. There are several possible reasons for this:

• The Slick software was not properly installed. Fortunately, it's easy and quick to reinstall, and that should cure the problem.
• You are using iMovie '08. Look here for more information.

The minimum system requirements for Slick Transitions & Effects are:

• iMovie 4, iMovie HD 5, iMovie HD 6

• Any Macintosh computer with a 300 MHz or faster PowerPC G3 or G4 processor and built-in FireWire port
• Mac with an Intel processor
