Anybody has been able to add a video to iBooks Author?

I followed the export instructions in the help but I always get the same error message: The media file “Untitled2.m4v” wasn’t added. The file is an unsupported format. My video is in 1280x720 resolution. This is what I did to export my video:
Convert a video file
Open the file in QuickTime 10.1 or later.
Choose File > Export.
Do one of the following:
To create up to a 420p movie: Select “iPod touch & iPhone 3GS.”
To create up to a 720p movie: Select “iPad, iPhone 4 & Apple TV.”
The numbers refer to the number of vertical lines. For the best quality, select the 720p (iPad) option. If you’re concerned about file size or want better performance, use 420p (iPod touch).
Click Export.
Add the exported file to the Media (or HTML) widget.
No luck...

hi Robert,
I'm able to do this in any plae within book (video in intro media or within video widget) - though I'm using 420p m4v vidoe content (generated with QT Player X as in help file).
Have you tried 420p movie size?
regards,
Peter

Why can't anybody get the photos I send them from my Iphone 4s? I've sent it to blackberries, iPhone 3G, and other phones - nothing has been able to get them!

Do you get a send error message or a red "!" when you send? Do you have a data plan on your account? Check that your carrier has you provisioned for MMS.

If you are having WiFi problems it is necessary to isolate whether the problem is with your network or your iPad. Note: Do NOT consider your network to be blameless if some other devices can connect to it.
First, test your iPad on some other WiFi networks: a friends, Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, etc.
If it works well there then the problem is probably with your network. Try restarting your WiFi router by removing power for 30 seconds. If that does not help check for a firmware update for your router. If none exists which corrects the problem consider replacing the router.
If your iPad does not function well on other networks it possibly has a hardware problem. You could try Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings to see if that corrects the problem. If not, contact Apple Support or visit an Apple store for evaluation. They can provide a replacement if your iPad is bad.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router and how you have it configured.

HT4859 I need help! I know longer have access to the email that I opened my icloud account with and I can't remember my password. I have tried asking Apple for help and no one has been able to! Any advice

I need help! I no longer have access to the email that I opened my icloud account with many years ago and I can't remember my password anyway! However it continues to backup all my stuff. But I have no access to go in and delete items or manage my account. The pop-ups now tell me that my account is full and it will no longer be able to backup items. I would like to go in and delete items that I do not need to make room, but I can't! I have personally gone into the Apple genius store and presented the problem as well as called Apple support and talked with a live person. And no one has been able to help me. I cannot believe that I have basically lost my iCloud accessibility? I have a lot of money vested in music and priceless pictures! Please can someone help me?

I don't know what you mean by "closed" - icloud accounts stay in existence even if you disconnect all devices from the account. You can't delete them.
If you don't recall the ID or the password, and if the link above doesn't provide another way to get to the account, then you are out of luck.

How do I save to mixdown in mono, 0 db reduction in volume, in 64 bps mp3? Sounds simple, but none of the support staff has been able to do it.

How do I save to mixdown in mono, 0 db reduction in volume, (Same volume level as in the files-no -3db reduction) in 64 bps mp3? Sounds simple, but none of the support staff has been able to do it.

Several solutions to this problem. I believe we may have discussed this over the support e-mail, but I'll share it again here so that it can help others as well.
First, as I discussed in the e-mail, Audition defaults to support Pan Law which prevents content mixed to the center of a Stereo field from being louder than the same content panned far left or right. This provides a -3dB drop to center content by default, but you can disable this completely by entering Preferences > Multitrack and setting the Default Panning Mode to Left/Right Cut (Logarithmic)
Now, when you create a new Multitrack session, there is an option to specify the Master channelization. Here, you can select Mono, Stereo, or 5.1 and this will be the default channelization mode for a basic mixdown operation regardless of your clip content, though can be overridden when exporting a session mixdown.
Next, if you just choose the menu item Multitrack > Mixdown Session to New File... it will always default to the Master channelization. This command does not write to disk, it is a preview or pre-processing step. If you wish to export your multitrack session mixdown directly to disk, in your desired channelization and file format, please use the command File > Export > Multitrack Mixdown > Entire Session... You will then have the complete set of output options, including the option to output at any channelization you like and the format you prefer.
Here, I've disabled the default 5.1 output and selected a Mono mixdown instead.
I've now changed the file format settings as well to MP3, 64K.
With most of these configuration details, you should only need to set them once and these will remain the defaults for any subsequent projects, unless modified again. The Export Multitrack Mixdown dialog will reset the Mixdown options to match the default output, and the MP3 settings may update to reflect the kBps setting nearest your session sample rate.

I am trying to sync my iPhone iMessages to my MacBook Air using my phone number rather than my email address as my messages on my phone come through to my phone number. My husband has been able to set it up, accidentally I think, but I can't seem to.

How do you add visual video controls to widget video in ibooks author?

How do you add video controls to video using ibooks author?

I have the same question as VideoImage. I would like the controls to appear in some of my videos so that the reader can speed them up or slow them down. This would save me having to run them through iMovie at 4X say and saving them that way. As far as I can see, the video fast forward, fast reverse, go to end, go to beginning controls only appear in the Widget inspector. What is their purpose then?

Embedding video in iBooks Author

After embedding a video in iBooks Author, the screen on the iPad stays all black after playing, without showing any steering tools. I need to tip again the screen to get play, rewind, finishing etc. Is there a setting I miss?

I have had the same problem. But when I go to the Inspector, Widget and move the slider for Poster Frame, the Inspector does not allow it to stay there. It goes back to the beginning of the slider, and nothing is then displayed when the video is seen on an iBooks page when the iBooks is either previewed or exported to display on an iPad. Any suggestions?

How do I un-embed a video? I deleted the youtube video from ibooks author on my iMac, but it won't delete from the ipad ibook view. It shows up in my book as a blank bar until I tap it, then it plays the video.

Only the advertisement from the video plays.

delete the media widget in Author
re-preview to your iPad
hope this helps...

"Add bookmark" disabled in ibook author?

I can't seem to add a bookmark in ibook author. I have followed all the instructions: highlighted the text and then opened inspector, but add bookmark feature remains disabled (grey) here and on the main menu. Should be very straightforward and I have managed everything else. Am I doing something wrong?

I have tried bookmarking an item further down a chapter that is apart the main text flow, but I hyperlinked it back to text in a text box towards the beginning of the chapter and it worked, however when I try to bookmark something in the text box, it doesn't work. This seems a bit contradictory to what this discussion is saying.
Are you sure you cannot link anything outside of the main text flow given this exception I found?
