Any idea why PNG not working in QT Pro?

I'm trying to place a simple transparent PNG as a copyright notice in a short QT movie and it's not working. The type is white, the background is transparent, and it opens and imports as a black rectangle with white type and it will not go transparent. I have tried Straight Alpha, invert, ... blah blah blah! I created the PNG in photoshop and have tried white background, black background, no background, layers no layers, transparent and no layers, everything! I then save as PNG and it just does not work!!
View Properties and select track of course.... just stays black! I am using 10.6.6 and QT Pro 7
Thanks for any input

Straight Alpha Blend works, makes the PNG track more or less transparent,
Yes. I use the "Straight Alpha Blend" option to vary the transparency of the watermark. Default is 50%. Moving the slider varies the transparency effect.
but the PNG still has a blk bkgrd with white type. I cannot get the blk bkgrd to go away.
Even when the movie is played?
Here is a link to an old tutorial I made for SJAUG (South Jersey Apple User Group). While it is somewhat old, it still demonstrates what I am getting on all of my systems. You will note that as soon as I add the PNG to the clip, it also displays "strangely," but as soon as I start manipulating/playing the clip, the display corrects itself.

  • My Apple TV and IPad drop after x mintues from "Home Sharing". To restart it, I need to close iTunes on my Windows 7 PC, open it , then I can listen again X minutes (15-90 minutes) to my music via "Home Sharing". Any idea why? What worked for you?

    I believe if you updated your Apple TV, you need iTunes 11 to make it work.

  • Auto tab focus method is not working in iOS devices please share the ideas why its not working?

    Auto tab focus method is not working in iOS devices. Please share the idear i am facing this issue while developing code for devices.

    Hi there,
    I can confirm this bug.
    Not sure if this info is relevant, but this is my experience:
    I am on the FIDO network, and so are two other people I know.
    We all tried blocking numbers, and calls ring right through. Text messages are blocked successfully. (never tried facetime)
    I also tried a ROGERS device running IOS7, and was successfully able to block my phone call from ringing through. HOWEVER, my call was forwarded to their voicemail, I was able to leave a voicemail for the person, and they did get an alert that they had a new voicemail.
    I have not yet had a chance to test this on Bell, Telus, or any other carriers.
    Spoke to Apple, and they advised me to do a hard reset (hold both buttons to shut off and reboot the phone), and if that fails to do an iOS restore.
    I have yet to try this, but hopefully someone will have a better solution.

    I have no idea why it stopped working.  But why it failed does not matter.
    Take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Repair Center and have it assessed and see what it would take to get it working.

  • Reading message from MQ- works in WSAD (IDE) but does not work outside WSAD

    Read from MQ:
    Same code works within WASD but does not work outside WSAD.

    PDL - thanks for the suggestions - here are the results:
    A button on the form that executes "this.print();" works fine.
    Changing "this" to "event.target" results in the same error.
    document.getElementById("PDFObj").Print(); works fine.
    However, the reason that I'm using ".postMessage([message])" instead of ".Print()" is because I actually have a toolbar that has save, print, zoom in, zoom out, page up, page down, etc.... I simplified the switch statement in the post above to only include print, but in reality has a case for each of the functions above. The postMessage call is triggering the error, since the catch statement is printing out the error message above. Any idea why this would work with Professional but not Reader.

  • Any ideas why my ipod nano 6th gen is not working with Sony SRSGU10IP docking station pls

    any ideas why my ipod nano 6th gen is not working with Sony SRSGU10IP docking station please ? classic working fine, so not the fault of the station itself ? it's been bought as a present for my father & he's confused !

    Check the headphone jack with a flashlight and clean it if necessary. The jack on a new Nano is very tight, be sure you push the headset jack all the way in, the plastic on the headset jack should be flush with the body of the Nano.

  • BG image swap won't work - any ideas why not?

    http://designerandpublisher.com/test-bg/test-bg-page01.html
    Hi - I'm trying to set up a background image swap where when the user is viewing the site and clicking on links, the background image will change.  You'll see the soldier one there now and I have others.
    The JS file the 2 HTML pages are linked to doesn't seem to be working [see above].
    Any ideas why it's not working, or is there a better JS file anyone may be aware of that does what I'm looking for?
    Thanks - Deaf Guy

    Hello - I wanted to post an update on this topic and am wondering if someone can still help me.  I figured out a way to make background images change on refresh.  You can see it here:
    http://designerandpublisher.com/test-bg/index.html
    I added a piece of JS to make the wrapper images change.  Although the image swap works now, this is really not a true background image swap because it is not swapping images in the body tag.  What I'd really like to do now is go into the body tag and somehow point it toward this JS code so that when the page is refreshed, it will pick up the image swap array.  I'm not sure if this is possible though.
    Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks - Deaf Guy

    If you look at the left column, you will see a black box.  It shouldn't be black. it should match the bg color of the column.  Any idea why this is happening?

    Hi
    The problem is that you are using a png, and IE6 does not support png transparency. You could try using the iepngfix from - http://www.twinhelix.com/css/iepngfix/.

    my iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    How did you buy iPhoto? Did it come preinstalled on your computer with Lion or later, or did it come with Snowleopard on system installer disks?
    Which version of iPhoto?
    If you have a version of iPhoto '11 and it is showing on the Purchased tab of the App Store, with your Apple ID, then delete iPhoto from the Applications folder  (don't empty the Trash) and download iPhoto again from the Purchased tab.
    If that does not work, contact The App Store Support  from the Quick Links on the AppStore main page.
    Only apple Support can fix problems with apple ID.

    Hi Mick2291,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I'd suggest restarting, and then restoring, your Apple TV if the issue persists:

  • TS1646 My credit card works on iTunes on my PC but not on my iPhone 5 iTunes/App Store account. Any ideas why?

    I am using the same credit card, and when I download an app on my PC in iTunes it loads fine, but using the same card on my iPhone 5 it declines any purchases. I have checked the card, re-entered it and checked the billing zip code. Any ideas why this is happening?

    Hi nezniezken!
    First of all, Explicit tags will only appear if your music or song is downloaded via itunes on ur idevice or itunes app.
    For example, your friend downloaded a song from itunes with an explicit content and you get or copied it to transfer to your idevice also... itunes application (pc or mac) will read it as an explicit one, but in your idevice it will not, unless you log in the apple id email account your friend used to download or buy the song to your idevice and download the purchased song. in that case u'll get the explicit tag
    Using metadata, mp3tags, or any softwares that adds "explicit tag" will only be read by Itunes app. but not on your idevice.
    Ways to check if you have a purchased music or song from itunes.
    1. All music from Itunes are M4a or AAC file.
    2. There should be a "Purchased By" and "Purchased Date" including the "Email (apple id account) and name" used for downloading the said song or music.
    (Right click the song from your library, Click Get Info and you should see it.)
    *If you have a friend telling he/she has a song bought from itunes and it is an explicit one, you will know the truth. If it has Explicit tag on his/her idevice then its bought from itunes, but if not.... he/she is lying.
    *If your friend bought a song from itunes and you tried to copied it (an explicit song for example) you will also see the "PURCHASED BY" PURCHASED DATE" "EMAIL AND NAME" etc. but u will not see the Explicit tag once you put it in your idevice, but itunes app will read it as an explicit one,
    There are many sites that are doing piracy, meaning... they are buying the song/album from itunes then upload it over the internet so other people may download it.
    I hope i helped you nezniezken!

  • Any idea why setSubject() is not working as expected??

    I am using SmtpMessage's setSubject:
    setSubject( "some subject" )
    but the email I receive says "no subject"
    I have made sure that the subject is being set correctly in the code.
    The email is received and the content of the email (set via setContent) is exactly as I had set it.
    But the subject is missing even though I set it.
    Any idea why this is happening?

    Nope.
    Is there anything unusual about the text you're using
    for the subject? Any newlines, for instance?
    If you turn on session debugging, do you see the
    subject in the protocol trace?

  • Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?

    Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?
    "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable"
    Offered solution doesn't work:
    Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.
    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    I can't download photographs from my iphone or my digital camera.
    Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?
    There is a possibility that when I went to update applications that I started to install Mavericks which I then interrupted and cancelled. I am not definite that this caused this problem but it was at about the same time as when this problem started.
    Many thanks,
    Ed

    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
