Can't get movies not to Autoplay

I have created a page with a load of Quicktime movies with poster frames using iWeb, but they all start loading immediately in Safari. I have checked the "autoplay" flags in the js file and they are set to false. What's going on?
Many thanks
iWeb 3.0.3 / Safari 5.0.4 / MacOS 10.6.6

Auto-play and loading are not the same.
QuickTime movies always load.
But you have to check Auto-play to play them while loading.
The info on the linked page is 100% nonsense and a waste of time too.
Update :
Here's a page made with the Save for Web/Export for Web with QT 7/QT X :
http://www.wyodor.net/Tutorials/FloatingObjects/
QT 7 and QT X have different ways of doing it, but the output is the same.
The movie doesn't load and only loads and plays when you click the button in the center.
Follow the instructions in the ReadMe.html when you have exported to Web with QuickTime.
Then use the sample page of the link above to paste the code provided in the ReadMe file QT create. Replacing the code in my page.
Use the <iframe> HTML element to display the movie in a iWeb page with the HTML Snippet.
Here's a page that explains how to do it .

It works with all kind of movies of all flavours.
You may have to practice.

You can restore to a recent backup which contains the Note. If you have no backups the note is gone.

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

I had quite a few notes in the 'Notes' app. I suddenly find that all of them, except 3 have disappeared. What could be the reason and how can I get my notes back?

Not fully au fait with iCloud. I don't use it. But if you have done a backup to iCloud then this might help. This reply will refresh your post thereby giving others an opportunity to comment. Meanwhile, read up about iCloud in the User Guide. Here's the link to download it - http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

If you did a backup before deleting it, you can restore to that backup but anything new after it will be deleted. Otherwise it is gone.

Can't get movie out of FCP

Hi, I have just created a fairly simple 75-minute movie in FCP 7, and for the life of me, I can't send it to Compressor to make files for creating a DVD. Compressor will do its thing for a few hours, then "Failed". Then out of curiosity, I tried to export it to a simple Final Cut Movie (not 'self-contained') and all I got was spinning pie. I just don't know what to try to get this movie out of FCP! Any suggestions would be most welcome.
Thanks, Bob

It will be useful if you give us some specifics.
What is the codec of the source media? H.264, HDV, DVCProHD or ? (Quicktime is not a codec. It is a wrapper that can support a wide range of codecs.)
Where is the media stored? System hard drive, second internal drive, external firewire drive, or ?
What are the timeline setttings? What codec is it using?
Your explaination of your process is very unclear. Have you tried exporting the project using "Current settings" and "self contained". Then take that file into Compressor.

Can't get "movies" in my iTunes onto my Apple TV (1st generation)...

I have a series of videos of differing lengths that are in my iTunes Movies folder/category. They play in iTunes with no problem, but many will not appear on my Apple TV.
I've tried highlighting them and clicking Advanced-Create iPad or Apple TV Version, but I get an error message stating "Filename" could not be converted because this file does not allow saving or conversion.
These videos are from various sites and are in various formats (some mpeg 4, some .mov). I downloaded them legally and have the right to have them.
What is causing this? How can I get them onto my Apple TV hard drive so I can play them?

the appletv will only display media in formats it support
http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs/
Video Formats
H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High or Main Profile level 4.0 or lower, Baseline Profile level 3.0 or lower with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Getting movies (not just video) from iPhone 3GS to Mac

I did the following in order (question at end)
captured video using iPhone 3GS
synced video from iPhone to iPhoto on Mac
imported iPhoto video to iMovie
created movie in iMovie
used "Share" feature in iMovie to share the movie in iTunes (so I could play on Apple TV)
synced movie back to iPhone
deleted movie from Mac (where iTunes was accessing it)
Now, the movie content only resides on my iPhone...can I get it back from the iPhone onto my Mac (so I can eventually get it back into iTunes)?
Thank you in advance...

I've found another thread dealing with the video part of this problem, which, for me, has solved the image problem as well. Here's the thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2489460
Thanks to Grognard for suggesting this:
Step one: turn off and on your iPhone.
Step Two : launch iTunes and iPhoto
Step three : connect the iPhone to the computer
Then importation will be possible.
Clearly this still seems to be a glitch -- these kinds of work-arounds are a huge pain. Hope an update will solve the problem.

Can I get my Note 3 Replaced with a newer build or switch to a different phone and pay the difference?

First off, let me say, I really love my Galaxy Note 3 -- it is an awesome Smartphone... Unfortunately, I am one of the users of the problematic Note 3s... I got the phone and it worked great for about the first week I had it (I got it outside of the area where I live)... then I got it home... I usually have a good 4G signal at home -- inside and out.
My office is literally just on the other side of my college campus (less than a mile away)... I go from a good 4G signal to no signal in my office, with the exception of about a 1 foot square section on my desk where I can get 1x, and occasionally 4G. I worked with the support team on Twitter and was sent a new SIM card, and that seemed to help unfil a few weeks ago.
Every other Verizon 4G phoen I have seen at my office almost always has at least 2 bars of 4G... If not 4G, then it will have a perfect 3G signal. (To compare, I upgraded from the iPhone 4, which never had a problem getting a 3G signal anywhere)... I would expect the Note 3 would at least keep some kind of a signal in an area where everybody's 3G signal is nearly perfect.... At the local walmart, I can barely get a signal outside, and you can forget it inside... (Ironically, there's a verizon store at this shopping center as well... when I walk in the verizon store, my phone magically switches back to a decent 4G signal...)
Ideally, I'd take new Note 3 that doesn't have this problem, or I could upgrade to the Note 3 Developers Edition that also doesn't have this issue. I really love the Note 3 and would prefer to stay with the Note 3...
How can I work with you guys to make this happen?
Thanks!

Hey Lyndsey & Ada,
I appreciate yawl following up with me -- this is the first time I have actually been able to get signed into my community account in a while.
I did managed to get some help out of the Twitter support team and they sent me another phone. My second phone (the one I just received a couple of weeks ago now) definitely worked better for a few days and then went bad again. I am beginning to wonder if the PRL needs to be updated... Unfortunately, I do not remember what the original PRL was when I first turned the phone on. But I know that it is on 15296 now.
I am back to having to leave my phone sitting in one particular spot in my office where it has any kind of signal. I go back to my original question -- since I have had so many problem with this phone, can I upgrade to the Note 3 Developers Edition and just pay the difference?
Thanks!

Can't Get Movies to Play!!!! Please Help!!!!

I received a 32GB iPod Touch yesterday as a gift. I also recently bought the movie The Hangover and downloaded the Digital Copy into iTunes. I can watch the movie in iTunes, but it will not play on my iPod Touch. It shows that it is on my iPod Touch, but when I click on it, it says "The movie could not be played". I was wondering if anyone knew what was wrong or if you are having the same problem? Everything else on my iPod is working great! Also, i synced the movies to my old iPod and the movies work (My battery just does not last long at all on my old one.) I have a 14 hour flight Thursday morning so I would really appreciate being able to watch movies and having something to do haha! Thanks for the help!

Didn't you just ask this same question a half hour ago?
You do not need to keep posting the same question. Your fellow ipod answer as their time and ability to help allow.

How can I get movies from my sony DSC-HX9V in AVCHD format to the mac?

I have recently received a Sony DSC-HX9V camera. It does movie recordings in AVCHD format. Is there a simple way to transfer these to imovie or elsewhere on my Mac? Any ideas please. Thank you.

Take a look at this compatibility chart:
http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras/en/index.html?lang=en_US
and read the notes re. your model. So, the next best thing then would be MPEG Streamclip (free) which should be able to convert your footage to something iMovie can work with. Note: You may need to purchase the MPEG2 Playback Component from the Apple Store (less than $20) which may be needed (that depends on a) your OS version and b) the MPEG Streamclip version).

Can't get movie to loop

Hi. I made a slideshow in iPhoto, then shared it into iDVD. I want the slideshow to start automatically when the disk is inserted in the DVD player, and also to loop continuously, so I dropped the movie into the autoplay square in the DVD map. Somewhere along the way I also selected "loop" from the advanced window. I thought I was all set, so I burned the DVD. The disk plays automatically, but at the end of the first run through, it seems to go to the "Revolution" menu screen, rather than looping back through. Any thoughts on what I might have done wrong? The "inspector" doesn't have any box (checked or unchecked) for "loop"; from what I've read there should be a "loop" option here, no?
Thanks very much!

Go to the map view. Click on the autoplay box and it will turn blue.
Click on the i at the bottom left of the iDVD window. This will bring up the information window where you can select loop for that box.

Can we get release notes on the new K1 system update?

When I bought my Ideapad it came with stock Honeycomb which I was more than happy with. Then Lenovo pushed a system update that erased all my apps and installed and ugly, intrusive overlay ontop of my beautiful Honeycomb OS. Now they want to force another update on me. I'm not installing until I hear what it does and probably not installing unless it provides an option to return to stock Honecomb. Can we get official release notes from Lenovo or some users to share their experiences with the latest update please?

JameZ asked the Dev Team already, and they said no.
But I'm with you, all other releases or updates have release notes or a change log.
I don't see why someone couldn't add what was changed, fixed, added or removed.
