Can't sync very large .mp4 file to iPhone

I have tried to sync a very large .mp4 video (>300MB) to my iPhone but to no avail. Could it be that the file is simply too large or is there another reason?

No, I have 1 gig movies on my iPhone, I would check to make sure that the movie is selected to sync in your movies or TV shows section. Plug your iPhone into you computer, open iTunes then click on your iPhone and click on Movies and then click on TV shows.

How Can I Stitch Together Two Large mp4 Files?

I have two very large mp4 files (close to 1 GB each) and I need to join them together into one mp4 file. Is there a free program that will allow me to do that? I tried using iMovie but there wasn't enough room on my hard drive to create an iMovie project for it.

MPEG Streamclip in batch mode will allow you to do this for free. Just make sure they are named in order , e.g. A.avi, b.avi - drag to the batch list and select join files. You will have to reencode them to something like H264 to do this. Which is probably a good idea anyway vs. whatever mystery AVI codec is in use.
If they play in QT and you already have QT Pro, just open both, set the pointer on A to the end of the clip. Then for B select all (CMD+A), copy (CMD+C), then click on the player for A and do paste (CMD+V). "Save as" (new filename) will make a new MOV file without reencoding them.
The SimplemovieX author is supposed to say more than he is the author but that he gets compensation for his recommendations. Since he expects you to buy his software. Don't bother.

How can NI FBUS Monitor display very large recorded files

NI FBUS Monitor version 3.0.1 outputs an error message "Out of memory", if I try to load a large recorded file of size 272 MB. Is there any combination of operating system (possible Vista32 or Vista64) and/or physical memory size, where NI FBUS Monitor can display such large recordings ? Are there any patches or workarounds or tools to display very large recorded files?

Hi,
NI-FBUS Monitor does not set the limitation on the maximum record file size. The physical memory size in the system is one of the most important factors that affect the loading of large record file. Monitor will try loading the entire file into the memory during file open operation.
272MB is a really large file size. To open the file, your system must have sufficient physical memory available. Otherwise "Out of memory" error will occur.
I would recommend you do not use Monitor to open a file larger than 100MB. Loading of a too large file will consume the system memory quickly and decrease the performance.

I need to sort very large Excel files and perform other operations. How much faster would this be on a MacPro rather than my MacBook Pro i7, 2.6, 15R?

I am a scientist and run my own business. Money is tight. I have some very large Excel files (~200MB) that I need to sort and perform logic operations on. I currently use a MacBookPro (i7 core, 2.6GHz, 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3) and I am thinking about buying a multicore MacPro. Some of the operations take half an hour to perform. How much faster should I expect these operations to happen on a new MacPro? Is there a significant speed advantage in the 6 core vs 4 core? Practically speaking, what are the features I should look at and what is the speed bump I should expect if I go to 32GB or 64GB? Related to this I am using a 32 bit version of Excel. Is there a 64 bit spreadsheet that I can us on a Mac that has no limit on column and row size?

Grant Bennet-Alder,
It’s funny you mentioned using Activity Monitor. I use it all the time to watch when a computation cycle is finished so I can avoid a crash. I keep it up in the corner of my screen while I respond to email or work on a grant. Typically the %CPU will hang at ~100% (sometimes even saying the application is not responding in red) but will almost always complete the cycle if I let it go for 30 minutes or so. As long as I leave Excel alone while it is working it will not crash. I had not thought of using the Activity Monitor as you suggested. Also I did not realize using a 32 bit application limited me to 4GB of memory for each application. That is clearly a problem for this kind of work. Is there any work around for this? It seems like a 64-bit spreadsheet would help. I would love to use the new 64 bit Numbers but the current version limits the number of rows and columns. I tried it out on my MacBook Pro but my files don’t fit.
The hatter,
This may be the solution for me. I’m OK with assembling the unit you described (I’ve even etched my own boards) but feel very bad about needing to step away from Apple products. When I started computing this was the sort of thing computers were designed to do. Is there any native 64-bit spreadsheet that allows unlimited rows/columns, which will run on an Apple? Excel is only 64-bit on their machines.
Many thanks to both of you for your quick and on point answers!

Today, I randomly happened to have less than 1GB of hard drive space left. I found very large "frame" files, what are they?

I found very large "frame" files, what are they & can I delete them? (See screenshot). I'm a (17 today)-year-old film-maker and can't edit in FCP X anymore because I "don't have enough space". Every time I try to delete one, another identical file creates itself...
If that can help: I just upgraded to FCP 10.0.4 and every time I launch it it asks to convert my current projects (I know it would do it at least once) and I accept, but everytime I have to get it done AGAIN. My computer is slower than ever and I have a deadline this friday
I also just upgraded to Mac OS X 10.7.4, and the problem hasn't been here for long, so it may be linked...
Please help me!
Alex

The first thing you should do is to back up your personal data. It is possible that your hard drive is failing. If you are using Time Machine, that part is already done.
Then, I think it would be easiest to reformat the drive and restore. If you ARE using Time Machine, you can start up from your Leopard installation disc. At the first Installer screen, go up to the menu bar, and from the Utilities menu, first select to run Disk Utility. Completely erase the internal drive using the Erase tab; make sure you have the internal DRIVE (not the volume) selected in the sidebar, and make sure you are NOT erasing your Time Machine drive by mistake. After erasing, quit Disk Utility, and select the command to restore from backup from the same Utilities menu. Using that Time Machine volume restore utility, you can restore it to a time and date immediately before you went on vacation, when things were working.
If you are not using Time Machine, you can erase and reinstall the OS (after you have backed up your personal data). After restarting from the new installation and installing all the updates using Software Update, you can restore your personal data from the backup you just made.

Have a very large text file, and need to read lines in the middle.

I have very large txt files (around several hundred megabytes), and I want to be able to skip and read specific lines. More specifically, say the file looks like:
scan 1
scan 2
scan 3
scan 100,000
I want to be able to skip move the filereader immediately to scan 50,000, rather than having to read through scan 1-49,999.
Thanks for any help.

If the lines are all different lengths (as in your example) then there is nothing you can do except to read and ignore the lines you want to skip over.
If you are going to be doing this repeatedly, you should consider reformatting those text files into something that supports random access.

Best data Structor for dealing with very large CSV files

hi im writeing an object that stores data from a very large CSV file. The idea been that you initlize the object with the CSV file, then it has lots of methods to make manipulating and working with the CSV file simpler. Operations like copy colum, eliminate rows, perform some equations on all values in a certain colum, etc. Also a method for prining back to a file.
however the CSV files will probly be in the 10mb range maby larger so simply loading into an array isn't posable. as it produces a outofmemory error.
does anyone have a data structor they could recomend that can store the large amounts of data require and are easly writeable. i've currently been useing a randomaccessfile but it is aquard to write to as well as needing an external file which would need to been cleaned up after the object is removed (something very hard to guarentee occurs).
any suggestions would be greatly apprechiated.

How much internal storage ("RAM") is in the computer where your program should run? I think I have 640 Mb in mine, and I can't believe loading 10 Mb of data would be prohibitive, not even if the size doubles when the data comes into Java variables.
If the data size turns out to be prohibitive of loading into memory, how about a relational database?
Another thing you may want to consider is more object-oriented (in the sense of domain-oriented) analysis and design. If the data is concerned with real-life things (persons, projects, monsters, whatever), row and column operations may be fine for now, but future requirements could easily make you prefer something else (for example, a requirement to sort projects by budget or monsters by proximity to the hero).

What are the best tools for opening very large XML files and examining the tree and confirming they are valid?

I am generating some very large XML files (600,000+ lines, 50MB+ characters). I finally have them all being valid XML and valid UTF-8.
But the files are so large Safari and Chrome will often not open them. FireFox will though.
Instead of these browsers, I was wondering if there are there any other recommended apps for the Mac for opening and viewing the XML, getting an error message if they are not valid for some reason and examing the XML tree?
I opened the file in the default app for XML which is Xcode, but that is just like opening it in a plain text editor. You can't expand/collapse the XML tree like you can with a browser, and it doesn't report errors.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Tom,
I had not seen that list. I'll look it over.
I'm also in touch with the developer of BBEdit (they are quite responsive) and they are willing to look at the file in question and see why it is not reporting UTF-8 errors while Chrome is.
For now I have all the invalid characters quashed and things are working. But it would be useful in the future.
By the by, some of those editors are quite pricey!

HELP!! Very Large Spooling / File Size after Data Merge

My question is: If the image is the same and only the text is different why not use the same image over and over again?
Here is what happens...
Using CS3 and XP (P4 2.4Ghz, 1GB Ram, 256MB Video Card) I have taken a postcard pdf (the backside) placed it in a document, then I draw a text box. Then I select a data source and put the fields I wish to print (Name, address, zip, etc.) in the text box.
Now, under the Create Merged Document menu I select Multiple Records and then use the Multiple Records Layout tab to adjust the placement of this postcard on the page. I use the preview multiple records option to lay out 4 postcards on my page. Then I merge the document (it has 426 records).
Now that my merged document is created with four postcards per page and the mailing data on each card I go to print. When I print the file it spools up huge! The PDF I orginally placed in the document is 2.48 MB but when it spools I can only print 25 pages at a time and that still takes FOREVER. So again my question is... If the image is the same and only the text is different why not use the same image over and over again?
How can I prevent the gigantic spooling? I have tried putting the PDF on the master page and then using the document page to create the merged document and still the same result. I have also tried createing a merged document with just the addresses then adding the the pdf on the Master page afterward but again, huge filesize while spooling. Am I missing something? Any help is appreciated :)

The size of the EMF spool file may become very large when you print a document that contains lots of raster data

SYMPTOMS
When you print a document that contains lots of raster data, the size of the Enhanced Metafile (EMF) spool file may become very large. Files such as Adobe .pdf files or Microsoft Word .doc documents may contain lots of raster data. Adobe .pdf files and Word .doc documents that contain gradients are even more likely to contain lots of raster data.
Back to the top
CAUSE
This problem occurs because Graphics Device Interface (GDI) does not compress raster data when the GDI processes EMF spool files and generates EMF spool files.
This problem is very prominent with printers that support higher resolutions. The size of the raster data increases by four times if the dots-per-inch (dpi) in the file increases by two times. For example, a .pdf file of 1 megabyte (MB) may generate an EMF spool file of 500 MB. Therefore, you may notice that the printing process decreases in performance.
Back to the top
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, bypass EMF spooling. To do this, follow these steps:1. Open the properties dialog box for the printer.
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Click the Print directly to the printer option.
Note This will disable all print processor-based features such as the following features: N-up
Watermark
Booklet printing
Driver collation
Scale-to-fit

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

3. Make sure that the Print directly to the printer option is not selected.
4. Click to select the Keep printed documents check box.
5. Print an Adobe .pdf document that contains many groups of raster data.
6. Check the size of the EMF spool file.

One of the available commands in the Action Wizard is Print (under the More

How can I send a large pdf file (42MB) attachment by email in Icloud ???

That's a bit excessive. The website http://convert.neevia.com/pdfcompress/ can compress files up to 5 MB in size. You may want to print to PDF single smaller pages, or print the document and scan it one page at a time to PDF, and then use the PDF compress tools to shrink it further.

Best technology to navigate through a very large XML file in a web page

Hi!
I have a very large XML file that needs to be displayed in my web page, may be as a tree structure. Visitors should be able to go to any level depth nodes and access the children elements or text element of those nodes.
I thought about using DOM parser with Java but dropped that idea as DOM would be stored in memory and hence its space consuming. Neither SAX works for me as every time there is a click on any of the nodes, my SAX parser parses the whole document for the node and its time consuming.
Could anyone please tell me the best technology and best parser to be used for very large XML files?

Thank you for your suggestion. I have a question,
though. If I use a relational database and try to
access it for EACH and EVERY click the user makes,
wouldn't that take much time to populate the page with
data?
Isn't XML store more efficient here? Please reply me.You have the choice of reading a small number of records (10 children per element?) from a database, or parsing multiple megabytes. Reading 10 records from a database should take maybe 100 milliseconds (1/10 of a second). I have written a web application that reads several hundred records and returns them with acceptable response time, and I am no expert. To parse an XML file of many megabytes... you have already tried this, so you know how long it takes, right? If you haven't tried it then you should. It's possible to waste a lot of time considering alternatives -- the term is "analysis paralysis". Speculating on how fast something might be doesn't get you very far.

HT204382 How can I to see a mp4 file with ec-3 audio códec with QuickTime?

I converted to mp4 file a TV program recorded with EyeTV, with H264 and ec-3 codecs, but I can't hear any audio with QuickTime.
How can I to hear this mp4 file?.

Thanks, but today I tried it and now perian don´t support the codec ec-3 by Dolby (Dolby Digital Plus (DD+ or E-AC-3 (Enhanced AC-3), and sometimes incorrectly as EC-3))
