Enabling a Quicktime file as a hyperlink

I have a banner that iWeb recognizes as a Quicktime file (several images loop in the banner). I would also like to enable this image as a hyperlink (iWeb grays out the option to "Enable as a hyperlink." Is there any way to override this problem? Thanks.

You can put a transparent shape in front of an animated gif and and use it as a link. But if iWeb is using QT to play your gif banner then it may be related to how it was added to the page.
How was it added to the page? In the example I linked to it was just dragged onto the page. If you used an HTML snippet and code that might be why it is viewed as a QT file. Not sure.

  • Hyperlink to quicktime file?

    Can you hyperlink to a quicktime file in keynote?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum!
    Keynote only allows hyperlinks for websites and email addresses. You can, of course, put a QuickTime file directly on a slide. Alternatively, if you need to link to the file for some reason, you can turn on your local webserver (in the OS X System Preferences, under Sharing), put the QT file in your web file folder, and access it through the appropriate URL. Doing this will open your web browser to show it, however.

  • Can a flash website launch quicktime files?

    Hi
    I am not really familiar with what options are available for
    video but would appreciate some advice on what is achievable. Does
    the server always need to be enabled in some way to run any type of
    flash video, if so can flash launch quicktime files?
    Many thanks
    Tristram23

    If your question is to whether Flash can load QuickTime into
    a swf, the
    answer is no. Flash can load Flash Video (.flv)
    If your question is whether Flash can launch a QuickTime
    movie, use
    getURL("yourMovie.mov")

  • QuickTime Files - No Icon Preview

    I like in Finder the way that it shows you Icon Previews for images, so that you can see a thumbnail of the image when you're in icon view mode.
    However, QuickTime files don't seem to have an icon preview, which is a shame. Is there any way to enable this? It would be great for all the Poster Frames to show up as the icon preview.

    Open your file with QuickTime Player.
    Use the controller to find the image you want (arrow keys will step through frames).
    Command-C (Copy).
    Switch to the Finder and highlight the QT file. Open the Get Info window.
    In the upper left corner you'll see the QuickTime icon. Single click on it and it will "highlight".
    Command-V (Paste).
    Custom icon preview using an image from your file. If you keep a lot of videos in a single folder set the Finder icon preview to 128X128 and it's easy to find the "right" one.

  • Saving monitor views as quicktime file

    For training purposes I would like to capture a series of actions from my screen and save as a quicktime file. I see Grab lets me take a single screen shot but I need to capture more than this.
    How can I do this?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi, Richard. Welcome to the Discussions.
    Snapz Pro X 2 with Movies provides excellent screen capture in QuickTime movie format, which can then be edited in iMovie. The basic version of Snapz Pro X 2 (US$29.00) only captures still-image screen shots, but the version with movies (US$69.00) does an excellent job of capturing on-screen action for tutorials or other purposes. Version 2 enables Mac Audio capture in addition to microphone capture.
    There may be other solutions: search MacUpdate or Version Tracker for alternatives. The user-submitted reviews accompanying the listings are helpful in sorting the wheat from the chaff.
    However, I've been using Snapz Pro X with Movies for several years and always like the results.
    Good luck!

  • Question about dowloading quicktime files

    Anyone know how I can enable people to download the quicktime files and or aac/mps files I have on my iweb space? I have a page with a Garageband tune I did, and people can listen to it, but I want them to be able to download it to the computers.
    thanks in advance.

    Saving QuickTime content viewed in a Web page requires the Pro upgrade.
    The easiest solution is the place the files in your iDisk Public folder.
    If you use Homepage (not iWeb) you can make a simple file sharing page that will automatically update as your Public folder changes. You can add this URL to your iWeb pages.
    You can also "link" your Public folder files (so you don't have to upload them twice) to other pages.
    The address (URL) would use this syntax:
    http://homepage.mac.com/accountname/.Public/filename.fileextension
    Where accountname is your .Mac account and filename.filextension is the name of the file and the file extension (.mov, .mp3 etc.).
    Notice the period (.) and the capital P in Public.

  • Web downloads show up as Quicktime files in iTunes

    This problem started a month or two ago (I assume with a Quicktime update).
    The problem seems to be that downloading MP3 files through the Quicktime player in a browser sets them as Quicktime files even when choosing "Save as Source". The file has a .mp3 extension, and shows up as 'MP3 Audio File' in the FInder, but shows up in iTunes as a Quicktime file, and can't be transferred to an iPod. Very annoying.
    One workaround I've found is to Option-click the LINK to the file (or right-click and choose "Download Linked File"). This bypasses quicktime and keeps the file as MP3.
    Anyone else notice this problem?
    Anyone have a solution?

    When you drag a web gallery onto an iWeb page from the media window, it should appear as a "ready made" link to the gallery on .Mac.
    The link appears as a round purple button with a photo superimposed and the "name" of your gallery page is a text link to the gallery itself.
    If you check "make hyperlinks active" in the "link" inspector, you should be able to download the .Mac gallery page to your browser by clicking this link on the iWeb page.

  • I have the newest imovie as i got a macbook for christmas, i have made a video and want to upload it to youtube and it is a quicktime file, but yet it is still taking ages to upload and youtube says if i change the format it will take less time,help?

    I need help for how to upload a video on youtube when it is a quicktime file but how i change it to a streamable format in order for it to not take as long to upload, how do i do this?

    I have the same issue.  If you are exporting from iMovie version 10.0.1, I run into the same issues if I export directly to YouTube or if I export to file then upload to YouTube.
    Google's help file doesn't properly address this problem and thier help is also out of date.  In talking to a support rep at Apple, they said the export to YouTube should just work or the exporting to a file then uploading otherwise it's an issue for Google support.
    If someone can post a solution that works (is a streamable format - which is different than the format that YouTube accepts as it will accept many formats but take a long time to process them), I'd be interested to hear also.
    Thanks,
    Rob.

    There is not "fix" to be provided, Apple made a decision to not include the file sharing profile.

  • HELP TO EXPORT ANIMATED GIF AS QUICKTIME FILE

    I have keynote 6.2 and have imported an animated gif file within my page presentation which also has a movie file and sound. When I export the file as a quicktime file, the final file does not show the animation at all, it is static?
    I have tried different options when exporting as a mov and 4p4 file, neither makes any difference, can someone help please.
    I am using the file to import into Imovie, where I am piecing everything together into a movie11.
    Thanks

    Thanks for your prompt reply Gary, but the problem is how can I resolve this? Do I import another file type? Can I export to another format other than Quicktime. Someone mentioned changing the frame rate of the animation to either 25 or 30 frames a second, or does this not make a difference?

  • How do I export from FCP to a QuickTime file with multiple audio channels?

    I'm delivering a project where the first step is to generate an HD Cam SR master, which I will be doing at a post-production lab. They will then do a QC check for me. To generate this HD Cam SR master, they need to me to bring in my 98-minute long movie on a firewire hard drive, in five equal parts -- QuickTime files. From these five QT files, the lab will then be creating an HD Cam SR master that will have...
    dialogue on tracks 1 and 2
    effects on tracks 3 and 4
    music on tracks 5 and 6
    MY QUESTION
    a) I don't see any way to separate these audio tracks accordingly in the FCP menu for QuickTime export. Does anyone have any experience doing this?
    b) And does anyone know the most efficient way to combine timeline audio tracks for this purpose? I have my dialogue sitting on the first FOUR audio tracks, actually. To deliver this film, I'll need to crush these four audio tracks to two, as listed above. I could generate an AIFF file, I suppose, import it back onto the timeline, sync it up, and then re-export along with the visuals to make the final QT file, but this seems like a generation loss.
    thanks,
    Shanked
    PS the movie is made up of footage from a Sony PMW EX1. I used the codec "XDCAM 1080 24p 35mbs VBR" for editing in FCP. I'll either export to QT using this same codec or switch to "Apple ProRes" if my machine can somehow maintain the sync.

    The following will answer both your questions a) and b).
    Click on your master timeline and press cmd+0 (zero) to bring up Sequence Settings, then click on the Audio Outputs tab on the right. Click on the Outputs option and change it to 6. You can leave them as Stereo pairs.
    Now, back on your timeline, you need to make sure all your audio is organised so each track. A1, A2, A3, A4 etc has all the relevant media on it.
    Then, on the left of the timeline you see the Destination toggle buttons, then you see the Padlocks to lock tracks, then you have the Toggle Auto Select squares. If you right-click on the Toggle Auto Select squares you bring up a little sub-menu, at the top of this list you'll see Audio Outputs, which will show the stereo channels for that particular track. As you've changed the number of Audio Outputs in the Sequence Settings, the list will show: 1&2, 3&4, 5&6. You just tick whichever channels you want.
    In your case, you have dialogue on the first 4 tracks, no problem, just go down through tracks 1,2,3 and 4 as described above and assign these to Audio Outputs 1&2.
    Then just go down through your music and effects audio tracks and assign them accordingly.
    Now, when you export your timeline as a self-contained media file, it will have different audio channels.
    I hope that makes sense. When you change the number of audio outputs as described in the first step, I believe the rest of it is fairly self explanatory, once you know where the settings are.

  • How do I get an embedded quicktime file to appear "activated" w/playback & volume upon opening PDF?

    I am new to adobe acrobat, and I'm using version 8.  I am trying to insert quicktime videos in a PDF File.  I have figured out how to insert the video files and embed them in the PDF.
    However, when I save the PDF, close it, and then re-open the it, the quicktime file does not appear.  If I don't use a poster image, then it is just blank where the file is, but the file is there, and when I click on the empty space where I know that it has been embedded a dialog box opens about playing it just this once, or making it a trusted file, etc.  Then it plays, and the volume and playblack controls, along with the background, are visible. (it is actually just an audio track in a quicktime file, so nothing is playing but the audio, and the background is solid black.  I have set it up so that it stays there once activated.
    What I want is for the volume and playblack controls and the black background to appear as soon as you open the PDF file, without having to click in the blank area where the file has been inserted.  This is going to be part of a portfolio that I am submitting for a school program, so I need the person that is opening it to be able to clearly see where the file is, and see the playblack and volume controls so that he can playback the file.
    So how do i get the embedded quicktime file to automatically show up in "activated" mode, with the playback and volume controls visible and ready to be used?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks...

    If the video is only linked it would reduce the file size of the pdf and it would make it accessible for people opening on a device (like iPad) which does not allow flash which must be installed with Acrobat to view embedded media.
    But I would recommend to send the people only a link to the PDF. I hate it, when my iPhone filled with useless stuff, if I would like to see it I could donwload, but as attachment make my space overfilled.

  • Export QuickTime file with new audio and maintain the file size and quality as the original.

    I shot some footage for a client yesterday and ran into an issue. To make a long story short I have QuickTime mov files shot with my Panasonic GH4 that have a buzzing sound in the audio track. I have clean audio from a recorder that can be sync'd. Is there a way for me to do this for the client and deliver them as the same QuickTime file but with the clean audio and keep the file size close to the original and not have quality loss in the image?
    If so I will probably put all of the spanned clips together from each interview and sync the audio before delivery. I am just not sure which codec will give the client the same quality footage compared to the originals and not have a massive difference in the overall file size. They did request that they be Quicktime MOV files though so that is a must.
    I don't see this as an option in the codecs in the export settings in PP, but is there a way to export as ProRes or another MAC native codec that will save them from having to convert it on their end? I am on a PC with Adobe CS5.5 so I am not too familiar with MACs, but from what I understand they would need to convert the files if I sent them straight out of the camera.
    I found some related search results for this but they pertained to "Best quality" for export. I am not sure how the varying options work but I don't want to create files that are considerably larger, just not less quality.
    If anyone has experience with this it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Cole

    Here's the workflow: I imported the video footage into iMovie '08 and did my edits. Then I exported it (share) to my desktop with compression set @ 740 X 480. Then I used QuickTime Pro to fix the audio track. The file plays perfectly with both audio tracks working. It's a QuickTime file (.mov).
    I hope this jars any replies as to why the file when uploaded to my iWeb gallery drops the second audio track.
    Hmm,

    Hi,
    There is no such PowerShell command can achiev this. Maybe you can use a script to get the user name with folder redirection enabled. However, I am not familiar with writing script, and it would be better for you to ask in script forum below for professional
