Can you splice AUDIO files with QuickTime v10?

I just upgraded from a G4 (non-intel) Power Book with QT v 7.7, to a new MacBook Pro with QT v 10.1.
My old G4's QT v 7.7 let me edit audio files - stitch and splice using cut and paste. But QT v10.1 on my new MacBook Pro apparently will only let me "trim" audio clips - the other edit menu functions are grayed out. So no splicing of two audio clips or removing an internal part of a clip.
HELP says I can use those splicing functions for movie files (I assume that means strictly video), but is silent on audio-file splicing.... which is where my interest lies.
Have I lost that audio editing capability by "upgrading"? (QTv 7.2 won't run on the MacBook Pro.). If so, is there another 3rd party app you'd recommend for this purpose?
It's a shame, actually - I was quite pleased with Quicktime as it was.

QuickTime X (version 10 in Snow Leopard and 10.1 in Lion) can only "trim" audio files and the editing features you describe only apply to "videos".
Snow Leopard and Lion users can use two different versions of QuickTime. Version 7.6.6 installs in the Utilities folder and your old Pro registration will enable the editing features you want for audio files.

Can't view .mov file with quicktime

Hello. I need help viewing a .mov file with Quicktime 7.5. It was recorded on a Canon Vixia HV30 camcorder and given to me on a dvd. But when I try to view the .mov file with Quicktime, I can hear the audio but the screen is black. Sometimes, it asks me to continue to the following link:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html?os=Windows&ctype=696d64 63&csubtype=69636f64
I'm not that computer savvy - what is wrong? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Sorry. My "then" (above) should have been "they".
They sent you a data DV containing the "source" from the camera and the HDV codec isn't available on your PC so you can't view the file.
Ask the authors to convert the file using H.264 Video codec (or others) so your Windows version of QuickTime can play the file.

Can you use audio chat with PCs with microphones?

Is there a simple way to link audio chat between Windows and Mac?

You can audio-chat with a PC user with the latest version of AIM and a mic (on the PC). On the Mac side though, you need to have a camera (camcorder or iSight) plugged in. You cannot audio-chat with a PC AIM user without a camera.
I use my powerbook 1.33 GHz, iChat AV3 and my Sony DV camcorder (FW) to audio-chat with friends using PCs eqipped with AIM and just a mic. No problems at all.

Can't download audio file with Safari

Using Garage Band I recorded some audio and music (think podcast). I converted it to MP3 in iTunes and then uploaded it to my ISP. When you click on the file all you see is binary code, no audio file.
This only happens in Safari. It's fine when I use FireFox (same computer). It also works with Internet Explorer on a Window's XP machine.
Using latest Safari and OS X.
Any ideas about the Safari problem?
Thanks,

Hi,
Can you tell us the link to the file in question? From your description it sounds like the ISPs webserver might not be identifying the MIME type correctly. Some browsers can be more forgiving when this information is wrong/missing but Safari tends to be more strict.

Can you save Audio File from WhatsApp to iPhone music

Only way to add anything to music is download it from the iTunes Store directly on device or sync it from a computer using iTunes.

Can you write to files with an applet or what?

Hi I can't get the bufferwriter to output any text to a file. Not sure if this is because I'm using an applet? I wouldn't assume so, but any help would be appreciated

In the future, do not post eleventeenkathousand lines of code. No one is going to read it all and - quite frankly - no one really cares.
As for the issue at hand, whenever you are going to access the file system, a remote server, access the clipboard and a handful of other "security" related issues, you must sign your applet.

Can you export your files with the Trial Version??

I've been into the help section, and it says to go to Share and then export ect ect, but when I clicked share, I can't click any of the options (theyre that light grey). I REALLY need to be able to export with this trial version I have, and soon. Please help!!

Click in the timeline window to make sure it is the active windqw. The most common cause for grayed out share menu options is if you have the browser as the active window.

Can you open ID files with any other apps?

I was a subcontractor for a printer. The printer's client requested the production files. I package the files. Five books. Each folder contains ID file, art, supplied word docs, and exported PDF. The client calls printer and says they all open but one. I open it, check it, email it. She calls me this morning to tell me the one file still won't open. I asked her what version of CS she has and she says she doesn't have InDesign. I tell her it's impossible to open ID file without ID. She goes off on me for questioning her, blah, blah, blah. Anyway, can someone tell me if it's possible she somehow opened the other 4 files somehow in some conversion app. The only thing I could think of is if they have QX and used markzware ID2QX plug in from within QX. I'm in the process of repackaging the files so all the ID files, PDFs, Word Docs, Art, Covers are all in separate folders.
For the record, I opened all 5 ID files on my PC before sending to the client so the files aren't corrupt.

My arrangement with this printer is that I surrender production files. Another part of the job was that I have to return LIVE paginated word docs to the client for future editing. In addition, the word docs are in Spanish and the client was very specific about page breaks. Furthermore, even though there are 5 books, I get Spanish word docs from 7 people. The word files come to me formatted. Almost as clean as my ID files would be. So I've been editing the word docs, exporting to PDF and placing those into ID. I paginate and add art to fill in the holes as per sample books provided. So the layout files contain nothing but PDFs and filler art. It was the only way I could think of to give the client back word docs paginated specifically as they were given to me.

Can you create a DVD with quicktime to be watched on a TV's DVD Player?

Basic question before I buy quicktimepro for a iMac. I want to export slideshows I've created via iphoto for folks to watch on their DVD connected to a TV. What format is that and does quicktimepro export to that format?
Thanks!

Beat you by a minute.
Nearly any QuickTime format (not playback only or third party) can be converted by iDVD.

How can you do audio editing with fcpx

I want to know why was the audio in FCPX have such a big limitation of its audio editing, I want to leave the original clip sound but adding a music background and during the clip playback I want to rise and lower the volume in some portion of the clip I use to do that with FCP studio, but with FCPX you could only drag one point up or down and not a portion of the clip. Is there a work around on this or do I have to send these people from apple some feeback, on audio editing.

… I find this rather klunky - the keyframes are never in the right place for me using the Range Tool.
funny - I find your method more than complicated: switching to the range tool is a single click operation, and then just dragging - done.
precision is accomplished a) by magnification, b) by setting in/out traditionally with I and O, c) shifting the 'rough selection' manually, or, at last d) first setting Markers and snap the Range Tool to it.
don't miss Marc Spencer's advice on this topic
5:15 shows the Range tool in action ......

Help - can't open .mpg file with Quicktime 7.3

Hi folks,
Just tried to open a .mpg file of a recent santa visit for my little boys and Quicktime indicated it couldn't open it saying it wasn't a movie.
I upgrade to Quicktime pro but that didn't solve the problem.
Any thoughts as regards possible symptoms ? When I left Lapland the assistant played back the clips on a USB disk so it seems as if the file is okay !?
I was trying to import the clip into an iMovie project to burn a DVD in time for Christmas - any other application I could use as a workaround to get this into a format that iMovie would recognise ?
Thanks,
Kieran.

Can you open CSV-files with commas?

It seems to me that we have something of a regression in Numbers 2.0 (part of iWork '09) - it (like Excel before it) no longer opens regular CSV-files.
When I use the new Numbers to try to make a CSV-file, it'll actually use semicolons instead of commas, and any of my old CSV-files (like this one: http://d.ooh.dk/misc/postnumre.csv ) (with commas) will load all the values (and the commas) in a single column.
I wonder if it's just me, or perhaps only a problem when using European notation (with comma as the decimal separator)?

At last, Apple adopted the same behavior than Bento 1.
When the decimal separator is the period, it works with standard CSV files.
When the decimal separator is comma, it works with CSV using the semi-colon as item delimiters.
To open your old CSV, set temporarily your system to a region whose decimal separator is period. Given that, Numbers will open them flawlessly.
The ability to chose the separator (as it is now in Bento 2) would have been fine .

Question about opening a file with Quicktime..

Hello,
I would like to open some audio files with QuickTime and not iTunes.
With Panther I used to select ALL the files i needed to modify and then select the default app. for opening them (in this case QuickTime)
Now that I'm running Tiger when I do that all the INFO of each files opens up and I have to make the change one by one.
Any idea?
Many Thanks

Use Option-Get Info.
I don't think this changed from Panther to Tiger, however.

Can you splice AUDIO files with QuickTime v10?
