How can I turn my iMovie DVD into a quicktime video? The original is no longer saved on my mac.

I have made a handful of movies through iMovie. Burned them onto DVD and erased the original videos that were created years ago. I would like to take my DVDs and somehow put them onto my Apple TV. I'm assuming the answer would be to create them in quicktime. I'm having trouble and have a bad feelilng this idea can't be done. Please advise.
Thanks.

use the free tool Handbrake.
it offers presets to convert DVDs straight into an AppleTV-compliant format.

  • Re user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? - I've followed instructions so far so good, until I get to "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. "  How do I do that?

    Re AppleMan 1958 excellent user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? -
    I've followed instructions with success until  "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. "  How do I do that?
    I installed MGEG Streamclip 193b8 and used their utility to install quicktimempeg2 and got a message stating it was successfully installed.  (I'm on latest Maverick 10.9.2 on iMac)  Then I dragged the VIDEO_TS file from my home DVD into the streamclip app.  It asked which of 4 files to use, and I selected the first one.  Streamclip played the video with the sound.  so far so good. but now I cannot figure how to use quicktime player 10.3 to export this vob file out of streamclip.

    Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion.  I'm exporting the first section now.  I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie.  I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame?  If it can, what size should I select when I export? 

  • How can I convert my Tiger DVD into a CD without spending more money?

    How can I convert my Tiger DVD into a CD without spending more money and time? I've spent over seven hours trying to upgrade an iMac 350 Hz OS 9.1 to Tiger. I have changed the iMac firmware to 4.1.9, but found that my Panther disc was only an OSX Upgrade, although the 3 cds are labeled as Installation Discs. Since I have a Tiger disc I thought I would use that. Unfortunately, my iMac only reads CDs, not DVDs. I tried networking the iMac to my G5, but upon shutdown, the OSX disc cannot be accessed. I copied the DVD files to my iMac hard drive, but again, the OSX disc cannot be accessed after shutdown.
    Is there a way I can burn a CD from the files of my Tiger DVD to get this task accomplished?

    Excuse me, but I never thought of that, nor did I have any intention of trying to rip off your company.
    I purchased four iPods for my family this Christmas. I have six iMacs just sitting around not being used. I thought that I would turn one into an iPod work station, so everyone can use one computer to recharge and hook up to iTunes 7.
    Unfortunately, iTunes does not work very well in OS9. Apple decided not to continue to support OS9 very well. I’ve spent several hours attempting to upgrade the iMac so I could set up iTunes 7. Unfortunately, my 3 Panther Installation Discs were mislabeled, and did not allow me to install OSX over OS9. My OSX 10.2.7 Installation Disc is a DVD, and my Tiger Installation disc is a DVD. Neither usable to update the iMac.
    All I want to do is set up a dumb iMac as a network interface to my G5 because I've use all of the G5's ports for our recording studio and the iPods need external power source if they are plugged directly into the G5.
    If you could show me an easier way to run iTunes 7 on the iMac I wouldn't be as ****** off as I am at Apple for not supporting the 9 older computers I own with usable help and upgrades.

  • How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?

    How can i turn a photoshop file into a website with knowing code? can i upload Muse or DreamWeaver?
    I created a few images (pages for a site) on photoshop and want to turn them into HTML code for a website- Can i Just upload the file into one of these programs and make a file with the correct code imediatly?
    I was reading about using EDGE Reform but i did not understand if i can create the code with it, in the end it says it still needs to be sent to website developer after?

    You need to look at Dreamweaver as a code editor. You need to learn to create good, clean HTML code with style sheets to make websites with Dreamweaver.
    There are tutorials that will take you from a layered .PSD file to HTML. Here's a good one:
    http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/site-builds/from-psd-to-html-building-a-set-of-website-d esigns-step-by-step/
    Adobe's Muse is a semi-WYSIWYG website layout creator for small websites (1-5 pages). But there is no way you can go from a .PDS file to Muse, you have to start the site in Muse.
    I have seen a few Muse sites and they're OK, but there is some code that Muse creates that is kind of odd. If you want a good, clean website that will work for you or your business, Dreamweaver is the best choice. Alternatively, you could hire a pro.

  • How can I turn garage band files into mp3s?

    On my older Macbook i have always been able to easily turn my .band files into mp3s under the Advanced heading in itunes, but with my Macbook Pro, that is not an option. The option has become "Create AAC version". How can I turn my .band files into mp3s so that I can load them onto my web page and my students can pick them up as mp3s and put them on their devices?

    The option has become "Create AAC version".
    Your iTunes importing preferences are currently set to AAC. If you change your Importing preferences to mp3, the option should then become "Create mp3 version". See the following document for some more details:

  • How can I insert an existing ApDiv into a tab in the Spry Tabbed Panel?

    I have 5 of them all containing nested Apdiv within nested ApDivs (a long storie ) that I would like to insert into 5 tabs in the Spry Tabbed Panel.
    Please help.

    "Hi Gramp,I realize I have made hard work for myself but I really don't know any better. I also realize now that taking on this project may have been a mistake :-)I taught myself how to use the design side of Dream Weaver. These five ApDivs were created in the content area of the spry tool and it worked fine. (yes a lot of work though)For the first time I looked at the code side. I wanted to try to bring a peace of code from another page for something unrelated and when it didn't work I took it out and without noticing, deleting a line from the Spry tool.Of course like a classic newbe I was working without a backup copy so here I am. Loosing hours of tedious work and on the verve of tears :-)I do have some  questions though.  My APDiv
      What does "apDiv1" stands for and what does "My APDiv" stands for?Is the only thing I have to do is changing this line for my five ApDivs and paste it in the appropriate places in the code? Thanks again,Gilaad

  • Can i turn an imovie project into an Mpeg file to work on a Windows System?

    Hi is there a way of turning an iMovie production into a standard MPeg format to play on windows operating system???

    Once i have created and imovie project i am needing to turn it into an bog standard MPeg that will play within a powerpoint presentation supported by windows media player .mov .avi etc don't work not very techy... The only way i have managed to do this so far is to create a dvd then turn it into MPeg using pinnacle on a windows system but i lose a vast amount of quality
    I was saying that if you have the right software you can create MPG, MPEG (MPEG2/MPEG-1, layered audio), M2V/AIFF paired elementary stream clips, VOB (MPEG2/AC3 or MPEG2/PCM), TS MPEG-2 stream files, etc., and you would need decide on which typr of file you wanted. If you want VOB with MPEG2/PCM content, then let iDVD image a file and all you have to do is copy the VOB(s) from the image,

  • How can I turn an audio podcast into a video for Youtube using iMovie?

    Hey there, guys.
    I'm trying to turn a podcast I created in Garageband into a movie using iMovie so I can upload it to YouTube. Now, for the duration of this podcast, I simply want one picture to show on the screen. So, in other words, the cast goes for about 55 minutes, so for the entirity of these 55 minutes, I just want one picture to show. That's all. Just one picture for the duration of the cast. How can I achieve this seemingly simple task using iMovie? Your aid with this is very much appreciated.
    Cheers.

  • How can I turn my old macbook into a file server

    So I have an old macbook from 2007. I don't believe it can run yosemite or mavericks, so i'm stuck with lion at the moment. I wanna be able to leave it running as a server so when I go away I can access files from it. Basically I wanna use it as my own cloud server. I use this program called plex from the itunes store which works great as a media server, but I wanna make even more use of the thing. It's such a great computer still even after all these years. Is there any (preferably free) way I can accomplish this safely? I'd like to be able to have some sort of authentication too so no one else can get into the server without a passcode or something.

    You may also wish to check into the availability of a Server version of Lion OS X 10.7.5
    or if the computer you have shipped with Snow Leopard 10.6, there should be one still
    available from the Apple store or online main store's operating system specialists...
    You'd need to check on availability or ask to talk to someone about it. The main Apple
    page store phone number should be able to direct you to an OS Specialist.
    The Snow Leopard version was better for some users with old hardware since it was
    available on DVDs and so a Server setup could be maintained or backups made
    ahead of need (extra backup clones or replacement pre-installed or RAID array) to
    continue use of a computer 24/7 as a Server. As such, the setup would be different
    than with a basic computer sharing files locally; a wireless Time Capsule or other
    wi-fi network may be utilized to share an internet connection and files between a
    group of authorized computers or supported devices. An older OS X may not be able
    to support newer iDevices, so the specifications of those may need to be checked into.
    For some, the use of a Mini Mac that can be set up without a display as a server, once
    it is running, is a minimalist situation. There should be several archives of Support info
    on how to do all of these kinds of things in the Apple Support online database.
    The suggestion above is a good start on a feel of basic settings to configure a shared
    server; the actual software version for Servers covers more to a higher level of use.
    And it may not be necessary for a home network.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How Can I Turn A Software Loop Into A Real Instrument Loop?

    My primary reason for wondering about this is that one of my songs requires a windchime sound throughout...but not too much of one. Just a touch of windchimes. The Orchestra Kit has a few pretty good windchime sounds BUT the natural sustain is too long for what I want. If figure I can get my wisp of a windchime if I can convert my miniscule software loop into a real instrument loop then whittle it down to the sound I want.
    How can I make this conversion?

    Well, Hangtime...You were absolutely right (again!) about messing around with the notes preferred over dissecting them.
    I got an absolutely gorgeous windchime sound from applying a couple of carefully auditioned filters and then messing around with the volume at the end of each note. It actually turned out better than I had imagined. It turned out so very nice that I gave it a well spaced looping rhythm and now the windchime is throughout the entire song and the song is better for it.
    My dissection effort didn't get a natural sounding windchime effect at all. I trashed it almost immediately.

  • How can I turn a smart phone into a dumb phone (for punishment when I still need her to have a phone)?

    I believe I am on the verge of needing to know how to turn my daughters phone into a dumb phone as a consequence.  I still need her to be able to call me, but not much else.  Anyone have any helpful hints?  She has a 5C.

    Remove all the email accounts that are on the device.
    Turn off FaceTime & iMessage.
    Create a new Apple ID using a new email address that you create, and that only you know the password to.
    Use that Apple ID for Settings > iCloud and Settings > iTunes & App Store.
    Delete all the third-party apps on the device.
    Go into Setting > Cellular and disable all apps from using cellular data (except Find My iPhone).  Or even disable Cellular data totally.
    Use the Restrictions option under Settings > General > Restrictions.  Create a Restrictions passcode that only you know
    Disable the ability to use everything from Safari down to Carplay under the Restrictions.
    Set all the allowed content to the most restricted options available.
    Set the Allow Changes in Restrictions to prevent allowing changes to Account, Cellular Data Use, ad maybe even volume limit.
    That pretty much makes it so she can make phone calls and use normal texting, but has no internet access, no way to browse online, no way to use any apps other than what's already pre-installed, can't use FaceTime, can't use the Camera, can't add email accounts to the device, can't change out the iCloud account, etc.  It basically dumbs the iPhone down as far as it can possibly go.

    How can i load these dvd's into my macbook pro, notebook ??
    Please help

    You can't. The MBP's slot-loading optical drive doesn't support nonstandard-sized discs at all.
    If the camcorder has a USB or FireWire output, you may be able to use that to transfer videos from it to the computer. Alternatives include buying a tray-loading external optical drive that can handle the oddball discs, or transferring the videos to a computer that has an internal tray-loader, then transferring them to the Mac from the other computer wirelessly, via a USB flash drive or external hard drive, or via a burned standard-sized disc.
