Audio in QT Movie in Mac, Can't Find Audio in QT Movie on PC

I've got two movies that playback with their embedded MP3 audio that I created.
On a Mac I posted it on an FTP site then downloaded it, double-clicked, and it all played back fine.
But two clients could not play it back *on their PC*, where the prompt said that the mp3 file could not be found within the movie.
Now, on a PC, I have loaded both the .mov file and its separate .mp3 file to my desktop from the FTP. I double click on the movie, and the audio plays fine.
SO QT files with sound don't play embedded sound in the file, but if you extract the sound and downoad them separately (audio.mp3) and (audio.mov), it seeks out the right file and plays it.
On a Mac, when the audio is embedded with cut and paste and saved to the file, it's all there. One movie file, one click, movie starts. Easier, organic, they way it should be. What process is at work separating these audio and video tracks in PC when they play back fine in Mac?
I value any insights., MAC OS 10.4.4  
G5 1.8 dual   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

Based on the original problem and the fact that it plays on your original Mac platform and a PC to which you have downloaded all resources, it appears you may have saved the "uploaded" file in the "reference" mode rather than as a "standalone." Check the size of the merged uploaded movie and see if it is just a few KBs in size or check the "Resource" entry in the "Show Movie Properties" window. If the movie does not reference itself in its current stored location, then you will have confirmed that this is your problem. The solution is to then resave the file but select the "Standalone" save option in the process.

    iWeb is not in libraries>application support any more.  How can I find my website and move it to a different computer?

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    Then you will be able to navigate to the Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and get the domain.sites file for copying to the other Mac.

    I rented a movie a few hours ago and never finished it.  I can't view it on my Apple TV nor on my Computer.  When I go to rent it again it says you have already rented this movie, but I can't find it anywhere.  How do I watch the remainder of the rental?

    I had the same issue with my apple tv 3rd generation. I rented Sinister and selected the "rent and watch now" option. Half way through the movie I accidentally pressed the menu button. When I looked for the rented movie on my apple tv I could not find it. Not even above the movie pannel where "purchased" and "top movies" comes up on the main menu. the apple tv suggests to go to settings>downloads but I don't have that option. I did go to settings> itunes store> check rentals but that didnt work either. It took too long to even check. Thank you because this SOLUTION worked great.
    SOLUTION: How to reset apple tv 3 3rd generation to view rented movies:on the apple tv remote: press and hold "menu" to go to the main menu. Select SETTINGS> GENERAL >RESET >RESET ALL SETTINGS. After the apple tv resets, input all your information again and your rented movies should be visible when you cruise above the "movies" section. THANK YOU!!
    Apple needs to solve this issue because honestly it took me 3 hours and a half to watch a movie that only lasted 2 BECAUSE I wast trying to solve the issue, reseting and all. blahh.

  • My MAC can't find the airport express...

    I'm having problems hooking up Airport Express to airplay. My MAC can't find it...wireless network is working fine, I have Klipsch speakers working fine over Airplay...but Airport express will not connect to my network. Help!

    Apple's "extend a wireless network" setting is proprietary feature that is designed to work with other Apple routers on a network.  Unfortunately, it is extremely unlikely that this feature would be compatible with a 3rd party router.
    The solution is to connect the AirPort Express to your main router using a permanent wired Ethernet connection and configure the Express to "create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, same wireless security and same password as the main network. 
    Another possible solution would be to to ask your Internet Service Provider (ISP) if they offer a compatible device that will "extend" the main router using wireless only.

    What did you download it on ? If a computer's iTunes then do you have a 'rentals' tab in the Movies part of your library ? If on an iOS device then it should be in the Videos app (if it's not showing there then have you got a film age rating set in Restrictions that is hiding it ?).

    I listed the commands.. that is how you manually mount the disk.. follow exactly the commands I gave you.
    In finder use top menu, go, connect to server.
    Type in the following.
    AFP://TCname or AFP://TCIpaddress (obviously you replace with the actual name or the actual IP address).
    If that fails..
    try
    SMB://TCname
    Here is the screenshot.

    It should then ask you for your credentials.
    And it should remember them in the keychain and be able to then get TM to connect.

  • In iMovie 11 small gaps in clips seem to transition nicely, but how do I reduce or eliminate the larger gaps? I can't find a way to move the clips together.

    In iMovie 11 small gaps in clips seem to transition nicely, but how do I reduce or eliminate the larger gaps? I can't find a way to move the clips together.

    I'm intrigued by this!
    Can you explain further what the gaps look like when you export the movie. Are there black spaces, for example? You mentioned earlier that "it jumps quickly between clips that I edited which gives it a jerky appearance at those transitions". So you are possibly just seeing a change in sudden movement when moving from one clip to another.
    I've noticed when shooting with my AVCHD camcorder that if I quickly move the camera straight after pressing the record button to stop recording, a jerky movement appears when played back. This is because the camera is still recording for a fraction of a second after pressing the button, that is, there is a slight delay before actual recording stops on the hard drive (unlike a tape based camera).
    I simply edit out these annoying movements. When hovering the pointer over the beginning or end of a clip, a small icon appears, shaped like a left/right arrow. Click on the icon and a small section of the clip end (or beginning if editing the start point) will be partly encased in an orange border. You can then drag the border's handle inwards in increments of one frame, up to one second duration. Repeat this if you wish to trim more than one second. I find this better for short trimming than just dragging the clip ends inwards and using Trim to Selection from the pop-up menu, as it is quicker and has more precision. To enable this feature, in iMovie > Preferences - Browser tab, check the box labelled "Show Fine Tuning controls".
    Of course, this may not be what you are seeing. But I can't really envisage what you mean by "how do I reduce or eliminate the larger gaps", as there should be no gaps, as explained by AppleMan1958. Could you please provide some more information, or include a screenshot of what you are describing.
    To take a screenshot, press the key combination Command+Shift+4 - a crosshair will appear on screen. Drag this diagonally across the section you want to capture. A .png image file will appear on the Desktop. When posting here you will see a camera icon in the reply window's menu bar. Click on the camera icon then follow the steps provided (it lets you navigate to the image). Sorry if you already know this!

    I bought a movie, but I can't find it to watch. I can't even buy another one. What am I doing wrong?

    In fact, now I just see: INTERNET, COMPUTADOR (PC) e AJUSTES (MENU/SETTINGS) - I'm brazilian and I'm not so sure about the name of MENU in EUA Apple TV.
    Anyway, I remember that until yesterday I could see FILMES (MOVIES) at the first MENU, and now it's no longer available.

  • My Mac can't find the server when I connect to cable internet.

    My Mac can't find the server when I connect to cable internet. Ethernet is fine, the problem is that Safari doesn't open the login/password window. Can anybody help?

    The system administrator of my network has had the following solution - to help open the window for the login/password I tick "web proxy" (and enter the information for web proxy server) in "network preferences - advanced - proxies", enter the login/password and then untick it to open webpages. A little complicated, but it works, and that's the only solution so far.
