How To Delete .mov file Created In Quick Time

How do I delete an audio file created in Quick Time Player and saved in my Movies folder as a .mov file? I can't drag it to Trash, and I can't access the delete option in the Edit dropdown, and Help doesn't seem to cover that topic. It just puts the floating blue marker beside Select All, which seems to do nothing much.
Many thanks.

Right click (Control click) and choose Move to Trash.

  • How to delete invisible file created by iPhoto

    I use MacBook and keep my iPhoto library on external hard drive. External disk got disconnected accidentally and I was requested to import the library again.
    I imported library from my external drive but the file created by iPhoto is not visible and I cannot find it either in folder Pictures or using Spotlight. However, I can see that available space on my MacBook hard drive is reduced for 10GB, which is actually the size of my iPhoto library.
    Any suggestion how to find invisible file created by iPhoto and delete it from the hard disk on my computer? Many thanks for your help.

    Do a Spotlight search for "Library6.iPhoto" on your boot drive and that will tell you where the iPhoto LIbrary is hiding.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How to convert a Final Cut Pro Movie File to uncompressed Quick Time

    I have to send the highest quality file of my 20 sec sequence. It was edited from a converted file.
    The settings are:
    Vid Rte: 25fps, Frame Size 1024x576, Compressor DV-PAL, Pixel Aspect Square.
    Audio: 48.0 KHz, 16-bit Integer
    I exported the sequence: the FCP Movie File is 72.3MB. How to make a Quick Time without reducing it further through the Compressor?

    See your other thread Ruth ... what you have created here is some kind of Frankenstein format that exists only in your laboratory.
    By the way, an "FCP Movie" as you call it IS a QuickTime movie.

  • How to delete movie files i cannot locate on my flash drive

    I am almost at my limit of flash drive storage because I have downloaded a few tv shows on itunes on my macbook air. I have deleted these on itunes and emptied trash but still on my system profiler it shows about 11GBof movies taking up space. I cannot locate any movie files having tried looking first at my itunes library and also on finder searching by file type. A mystery to me where these files are.
    How can I get rid of those movie files?

    Install AIR browser from app world. The PB file manager is a joke.

  • How to delete temporary file created by disk utility

    I recently ran the DISK UTILITY to erase free space. During the "CREATING TEMPORARY FILE" phase the process was interrupted. I had 250GB of free space now I have none. When ERASE FREE SPACE is run, what is the name of the temporary file and where is it located so I may manually delete it? The HARD DISK UTILITY shows I have zero free space

    Restart the computer and empty the Trash, or delete any file. Click here for more information.

  • How to delete pdf files created on server using cfdocument pdf?

    I am using <cfdocument format="pdf" ...
    to create a dynamically named and generated .pdf and it works rather well.  Navy managers can easily email the pdf to ships in the fleet and planning forces in the shipyards. (Planning data changes almost daily). However I have noticed that the pdf file stays on the server.  Over time this could become a problem with numbers.  Is there something I am missing to remove these pdfs over time.  Other than a manual review and delete.  This government server requires 4 logins and your right arm to update, so something auto is needed.

    Thanks for responding:
    I am not using cfmail - I am leaving it up to the user to print save or email.
    Your second option sound good but I really was hoping I was just missing something easy (new to cf).
    I did try giving the pdf the same name but I was having lots of troble with always returning the cached version.

  • How to delete corrupted files backed up on Time Machine.

    Hi,
    I'm using Fusion to run Windows XP Home. This morning I tried to open it and was told the file was corrupted and couldn't be used. I had to force quit both Fusion and Windows XP. Luckily I could go back a few days and use TM machine to restore an earlier version of Windows XP and now it's working perfectly again. I'd like to delete the corrupted file but I'm afraid I might delete something critical and I don't to delete all backups. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple boards:
    If you did it correctly, the bad file is overwritten by the "new" one from TM.
    If not, you should be able to find it and temporarily drag it to your desktop.
    If nothing bad happens after a day or so, then trash the desktop windows file.
    If you are looking to delete the bad file from TM, open TM and find the bad file and select it. Then select delete You will be prompted to delete only that file or all previous backups. Select only the one you have chosen.
    Be sure TM has backed up your new Windows system before deleting it and there is little you can lose.
    I would also like to compliment you on using TM and using it properly.
    Were everyone as conscientious as you, most of the issues on the board would resolve themselves.
    Kudos.

  • How to email movie clip not as quick time

    I made a 20 second video that I am trying to e-mail to a friend. It is 214 mb. When I click on share in iMovie, it compresses the video and makes it a QuickTime video. The QuickTime video looks horrible, grainy, and dark. When I try to attach the original iMovie project to an e-mail, I can't choose it as an attachment (it shows, but I can't click on it to attach it). What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

    Control-click the project, compress or archive it, and attach the resulting zip. Note that the zip may be too large to be attached; in this case, use another method, such as an IM client or this service to send it.

  • Why does iTunes create disk errors when deleting movie files?

    I use a Macbook Pro, OSX 10.7.5. When I delete movie file from my iTunes library I get disk errors. I need to option boot select the recovery disk and repair the disk.  Deleting a movie file I have placed on my desktop with finder does not create any errors.  Most of the movie files are created as .m4v movies. They all play just fine with my Apple TV. I have tried turning off the Apple TV and rebooting before I delee files but nothing seems to work.
    Any ideas?
    Lance

    If you let iTunes organise your media folders then that is the way it is. An option would be to change the Media Kind to TV Show which would gather them togther in one folder, but in a different part of the library.

  • Just bought a new macbook w/ mtn lion. transferred data from my old macbook over n it created another user name. that's actually good--xcept for music, which i want on my new acct. How do i move files from my "old comp" acct to my new one?

    i just bought a new macbook w/ mtn lion. when i transferred data from my old macbook over, it created another user name (i called it "old computer"). That's actually good--I'm not going to be accessing old files frequently--except for music, which i want on my new user name. How do i move files from my "old comp" account to my new one? Is there a way to easily move large #'s of files, or just one by one? I've googled extensively but can only find instructions for OSX 10.6 and previous, which talks about the "Shared folder," which I can't seem to find.

    That's actually bad. Peruse Pondini's Setup New Mac guide and seriously consider starting over.

  • How do I convert .m4v to Apple Quick-Time 5, 6, and 7 (.mov, .qt)

    how do I convert .m4v to Apple Quick-Time 5, 6, and 7 (.mov, .qt)??  Thanks!

    I once had a problem with a media player not handling .m4v files correctly. Simply changing the extension to .mov fixed the problem. Just delete the "4" and replace it with an "o". Ignore the warning that may appear regarding changing the file type - in fact it's preferable that you make a copy of the .m4v file beforehand.
    There's no guarantee that this will help with your particular issue, but worth a try!

  • How do I move files from my iMac to my Airport without getting 'AirPort can not be modified' message. File sharing is enabled and I'm not getting asked for a password. Thanks

    How do I move files from my iMac to my Airport without getting 'AirPort can not be modified' message. File sharing is enabled and I'm not getting asked for a password. Thanks

    What OS are you running.. this is usually only a problem in Mavericks.
    If so I recommend you mount the hard disk manually..
    Use Go, Connect to server.
    Type in the IP address if static.. eg
    AFP://10.0.1.1
    Or the name.. but you will have issues unless the name is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. if you are using bad names.. fix it by a full factory reset in airport utility and give it all names that comply to the above.
    Type in
    AFP://TCname.local Where TCname is replaced with the actual name.
    You will be asked for the password the first time which is public unless you changed it.. please remember to save this in the keychain.
    Copy files then to a new directory you create on the TC.. do not place files inside the TM sparsebundle. Nor directly under the main directory.

  • How do i move files from pc to icloud?

    I have 2 questions, first of all how do I move files from my PC to icloud?  Secondly how do I access icloud from my PC so I can view and grab files in case I need them?  I have about 7 GB of photos and videos from my iphone4 that I want to move to icloud and I just bought 100GB of icloud storage so I can store stuff on the cloud.  I am sorry for the newbie question.

    What is it then? How and what exactly do i use it for? My i pad says there is not enough storage available so i have purchased more in i cloud. I now want to save some TV programmes and films to i cloud to free up some space but don't know how to... When you are told there is not enough space to download you are prompted to go to settings and to purchase more storage - so it is not unreasonable to assume that this will solve the problem - or am I missing something here? Or is this just a way for apple to get money out of me?
    If this is not what it is meant for then what is it meant for? Is it just space to back up files to? If so then surely what i need is stored there - so i can delete the TV programmes from my i pad and grab them from i cloud later?
    Am rather perplexed...

  • I can't delete, move or create new pages.

    Hello,
    I have catalogue (390 pages)
    Today i cant delete, move or create new pages.
    When i delete, move or create new pages - my Indesign CS5.5 program "freezes"
    Only with CTR: + ALT + SHIFT i can stopped my program.
    Аfter reopening everything was as before!
    I try to export like a  *.idml file, but my program crashes! Every time!
    My OS is: Windows 7
    Indesign CS5.5
    Please help me
    Thank you!
    With kind regards,
    Botev Plovdiv

    Is there anything at all related to this freeze in the Windows Event Viewer?
    Are you able to add, remove, or move pages in a new document? Are you able to export a new document to .idml?
    Yes, it is able!
    It sounds like there may be a corrupt bit of text, or an image in the file. It may be possible to isolate a page, and then an object, using "Divide and Conquer."
    Start with a copy of the file, for safety. Try to export the front half and the back half separately. If either half crashes, divide it in half aand try to export those halves. Repeat the process until you have isolated a page that crashes. Now remove half the objects from that page and try to export. If it works, put those back and remove the other half and try again. Repeat as above until you isolate an object.
    Thank you, I will try!
    After that i will back to you with my comments!
    Thank you again, Peter!
