Can I Block Saving of Video Clips?

I have video clips (MOV files) on a website which icons in a PDF that I built can link to and open (to clarify: the icons are actually just virtual boxes around icon pictures that were in the Word doc from which it was built). Usually, the MOV files open in a web page (that's good enough), and the user can right click on them and save them (that's bad); note: my default browser is Foxfire.
However, I notice that if I have MS Internet Explorer open (but only if I have it actually open), the MOV files open in their own Quicktime window (good!), and the user cannot click on them and save them (great!). Is there any way I can force this desired behavior when I build the PDF?
(Note that the consumers of the PDF will have it resident on their local PC.)
Thanks for your help!

I have just learned (as a side issue consulting with a godaddy.com tech) that this is a function of the user's browser and how it's configured. So it seems I can do nothing from within Acrobat to force the behavior I desire. However, according to this tech, SWF files are harder to simply save to the users hard drive. (Doubtless anything can be hacked, but these not sophisticated users, and I intend to remove the restriction later anyway.)
So... is there a way to convert MOV's to SWF's? I notice that lots of products on the web claim to do that, but are there any you would recommend, not only as one capable converting MOV to SWF with little loss of information, but as most likely safe (i.e., not be a hidden way to deliver malware)?
Thanks.

Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

Can I record a we video clip ?

Can I record a wee video clip using i photo?

Hi
Run your mouse along the Dock. Do you see Photo Booth? If you do launch it. You should now be looking at yourself. Below the main window is a section that has 3 icons to the left. One of the icons looks like a small clip of film. Click on this. The Icon in the middle (the red one) turns into a what I think looks like a film camera icon rather than a camera icon. Click on this. You'll now get a countdown of 3 seconds. A timer display will appear to the left of the moving screen. When you've recorded enough click the middle icon again to stop recording. A file of the clip you've just captured will appear in the bottom panel.
Click and hold this clip and drag it to the desktop. Quit out of Photo Booth. Launch your preferred mail application and add the movie clip as an attachment.
Your only problem I can see is making sure you keep file sizes down as most ISPs will limit attachment sizes to 15MBs or less. A 1 minute video clip using Photo Booth is approx 3.5MBs.
That's as simple as I can make it.

Hi, is there any option how I can edit duration of multiple video clips (not stills) in iMovie 11, lets say if I want them 2 seconds long? Many thanks for any advice... Tom

I just recently upgraded to iMovie 10.0.1. Now whenever I import video longer than 30 minutes, it automatically splits it at 30 minutes. How can I get my entire video clip at once without a break again?

How can i rewind Or forward video clip in Nokia 62...

How can i rewind Or forward video clip in Nokia 6230i. plz help me out. thanx in advance.
Haris

Hello.
Fast forwarding and rewinding video on the 6230i is not possible as far as I remember with experience with several Series 40 phones. The proprietary Nokia OS runs a multimedia player incapable of doing this feature. I also have never heard of a certain compatible Java-based media player application which can do this. Maybe the architecture of Series 40 does not support advanced software features allowing this. However if you really want to watch using your phone, you cannot be able to fast forward or rewind.
Cheers.
PS:I am not really sure about this though; just a quick opinion. How about some ideas from other 6230i users?
The world might be a better place if you were I.

Theres a program called Bluestacks app player which when installed gives you an Android enviroment to be able to download apps etc and use/play them on a Pc from this you can then install an app which can create a backup of the app in apk format for transfer to a mobile or tablet etc for installation via your file manager app

Where should I be saving my video clips?

I have hundreds of video clips from my camcorder and iphone.
I've compiled a few of them into short videos in imovie of around 200MB and play them back via itunes on apple TV (and ideally would also like to play them via my ipod).
Where should I be storing the videos - presumably in imovie? I could also store them in iphoto (where they initially get downloaded to) or itunes.
When I convert them to itunes, am I saving two 200MB versions - one in imovie and one in itunes?
Thanks in advance

Yes. Store everything. Hard drives are at 10 cents a gigabyte or less.
You need an external drive that is formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). (also called HFS+ journaled). If your drive is a FAT32 drive, you can repartition/reformat using Disk Utility.
All moves should be made from within iMovie. If you do not, your projects will not work.
In iMovie, click VIEW/EVENTS BY DISK.
You should see your disk drive listed in the Event Library List and the Project Library List. You can Command-Drag the small icons for the Events onto the small icon for the drive, and this will move them. (If you do not hold dowm the command key while dragging, it will copy, not move).
You can do the same command-drag action in the Project Library List.
A slick way to have a complete copy on external disk is to first command-drag the Project to the external disk (as mentioned above. Then, with this Project selected in the Project Library List, click FILE/CONSOLIDATE MEDIA... This will move all Events that are used in the Project to the same external disk. It will also put a copy of any photos or music used on the external disk, so you can take the external disk and edit on another Mac if you need to.

How can I delete a .mpg video clip that has been "processing" for weeks?

Weeks ago I loaded a 380mb .mpg video clip using Express Loader that is still "processing". I want to delete it but cannot because the software produces an error message notifying me that I can't delete it until processing is complete. Obviously the "processing" is stuck. Suggestions on how to get rid of it? Thank you.

Have you seen recent email from Adobe about how Photoshop.com service is being transitioned to Adobe Revel? It is actually no longer possible to upload new files to photoshop.com. I checked your account and see the migration process has been initiated, which is probably why you do not see behavior you expect.

How can I record a QuickTime video clip of in-game action?

I've seen video reviews of games from time to time that show actual video clips of a game being played. The ability to record video clips of a game would come in very handy for me, because I'm experiencing a bug in the graphics of Call of Duty 2 that I would like to record and send as a file to Aspyr. However, I'm not sure how to record a movie of the game. (A screenshot is not sufficient.)
Can anyone give me an idea of what software to use to do this? Or do I just have to film my computer screen using my digital camcorder?
Thanks!

Like Mr. Napoli wrote, Snapz Pro X is probably your best bet.
It's made by Ambrosia Software, and at only $69.00 -- for it's quality -- Snapz Pro X isn't very expensive. I haven't purchased it yet, but I've used the demo. It's easy to use, with a lot of customization available. You can download a free demo from the right side of the main Snapz Pro X page here [ http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/ ] or purchase it from a link on the same page.
I would suggest downloading the free demo and trying it out, then deciding if you'd like to purchase. Any video recorded in the demo has a blue watermark "Unregistered Version Of Snapz Pro", but I believe that the demo is fully functional.

Can I invert a short video clip so that it is upright?

I need to turn a short video clip upright to be part of a slide show. how can i edit this clip? Please respond. Thank you!!

You would need to to that with QT Player 7 with QT Pro installed. iMovie can rotate the movie also.
I've used QT Pro for a long time now and have found it to be invaluable in trimming and joining videos as well as rotating.
You can search MacUpdate.com for "video editor" or "movie editor" to see what other editing options are available.

What kind of flash player can I download to watch video clips

I can't watch certain video clips on my iPad 2,what kind of flash player does apple allow?

None - Flash is not supported on the iPad. And as Adobe have never managed to make a version of their flash player that works on iOS devices, and they have recently announced that they are stopping development on all mobile versions of it, it probably never will be.
Browser apps such as Skyfire, iSwifter, Puffin and Photon 'work' on some sites, but judging by their reviews not all sites. Also some websites, especially news sites, have their own apps in the App Store.
