This problem may occur if you press CTRL+A to select all the clips in the storyboard or timeline and then press DELETE to clear the storyboard or timeline. This method does not clear the storyboard or timeline of all AutoMovie editing style elements. Although all the clips are removed from the storyboard or timeline when you press CTRL+A and then press DELETE, AutoMovie editing style elements may remain.
