I need help in Windows Movie Maker! I am new to this program and I would like so help or instructions…?

Question by Someone special 🙂: I need help in Windows Movie Maker! I am new to this program and I would like so help or instructions…?
I am re-asking this question so I have all the requirements that i am looking for all put together.

Heres what I am doing and what I need help with, I will do the best I can to explain everything.

I am on Windows Movie Maker, making Youtube Video(s) with music and lyrics.

I have figured out how to put in a title. I know how to animate the title and change the background color and font there, too. Thats about as far as I have gotten.

Here are some question I need answers to! I will try to give really descriptive details as well. I am new to this program so if you have an answer, please give like descriptive step-by-step instructions so it makes it a little easier.

1) A: How do I add l lyrics to the video?
B: Do I have to type them on microsoft and upload it?
C: Do I have to take small sections and add it to 1 slide, and then take another section and add it to another slide, so on and so fourth?
D: Can I put them on 1 slide and make them like movie credits where they scroll up?

2) When I go to add music to the slides, it doesnt have any songs. Someone said that some songs are locked,
A: Is there a way to unlock the songs that are locked?
If there isnt a way to unlock them, or there is no such thing as them being locked,
B: How do you add songs from iTunes to your slides?
I have no access do any songs, it only also has artists/albums that I have bought (from), no songs that I uploaded from CDs show up.
C: Is there a way you can put songs from CDs and that you bought on to the slides?

3) Except for the title, I cant change the background on any other/extra slides. I can only choose from the ones the offer, which is the green hill or whatever you want to call it, in different forms.
A: Do you have to choose from the given backgrounds?
B: Is there a way I can make the background the way I want it? (a.k.a customize the background)
C: If there is a way that I can customize the background, how is that done?

– When you answer these questions, can you please put the number and letter your answering to so it makes it easier for me to understand and read better.

*I dont want to have to buy any software.
*I dont want to use zillatube, I dont think its right to do what they offer.
*I will use a website that you offer, but if you do offer, please explain how to use it, even if the site has directions because sometimes they are hard to understand! So if you use that site, or know how to, please explain it in your own words so its easier to comprehend.

(If you have any other advice that you think would help, I would greatly appreciate it)

Thanks 🙂

I will try to answer as much as i can
here goes
the way I have done this is quite the process . so if there is an easier way,I hope you find it
I add each pic to the timeline and add the lyrics as follows
click on the pic
select titles and credits, then add titles on the selected clip

now add the lyrics and select font, animation etc. til it’s what you want

for music select import audio or music, then browse to yoour music folder
if the music is DRM protected, you need another copy of it
you can’t use these files , sorry ( iTunes files are drm protected)
just copy from a CD or download it from a P2P or whatever

just insert the CD and open media player and then select rip
use mp3 as the format and save it to your MY MUSIC folder

to customize the background just use a pis and do it the same way as adding the lyrics
