GB exporting older version of my movie

A previous version, the wrong one, of my movie is exporting to iTunes.
I have done a few short movies, placed them in GB for music, and then exported them to iTunes just fine, until now.
I make some changes in GB, save it, export it to iTunes and when I click on it in iTunes, it plays the pervious version. I even "save as" a different file name in GB, export it, and when it's in my Movies section in iTunes, it is importing the older version.
I have also tried dragging it from the Finder menu, which the latest version is correct b/c i tested it, into iTunes and the previous version still keeps importing...and it uses the new "save as" file name, but it's incorrect.
Am I missing something? Is there a way to clear out some sort of cache?

I just ended up exporting the movie using the Expert Settings and the correct file is now in iTunes.

secondly coming to Discoverer
1. reports are running fine in Discoverer Desktop and PLUS(+here i confirm while running the reports+)
2. when i export the output from PLUS, it exports fine, i can edit, i can modify and save the exported spreadsheet without any issue.(+here i confirm my output from PLUS is good+)
3. when i export the output from desktop, it exports ok but when i try to edit and save it, it will give a message as below
+"xx_disco_workbook.xls is a Microsoft Excel 5.0/95 workbook.do you want it to overwrite it with latest excel format "+
if i click yes it is saving in 2003 excel, but my question is why did Discoverer desktop export excel 5.0/95 ?? not sure from where and how is this version getting exported??

Exporting to Quicktime for older versions

Hello. I have a the latest version of QT and so when I export a video, it plays on my computer but not for folks running older Window versions. Is there a way I can export to a QT 6 clip without having to re-install the older version of QT therefore losing the benefits of having QT 7 myself? I export in Final Cut Pro. Would getting Quicktime 7 Pro work?
Thanks for any help.
powermac g5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Quicktime 7 uses H264 encoding in all the presets and that means such movies require QT 7. You will have to use custom exports and choose mpeg-4 to make files that will require only QT 6. If you use Sorenson 3 then QT5 for Windows will read that. Finally, the Sorenson encoder without a number will produce video readable in QT 4 and later. If you are not up to speed on how to make customized encodings then download this pdf guide to learn how to do it. I'm not sure if this link is still active so you may have to do a search of the Quicktime site if the link doesn't work for you:
http://images.apple.com/quicktime/pdf/QuickTime7UserGuide.pdf
P.S. That link seems to work but you will need the free Acrobat reader installed to be able to use the guide.

Export for older version of FCP and QT

I exported a Motion project to a QT file for a client in the DV format and they are unable to open it. I know they have an older version of FCP and QT so is there a way I can save it differently, maybe in Compressor?
I am using FCP 6.0.2 and QT 7.3.1.
Thanks...

Your first move would be to ask them what version of QT they have.
Then choose a matching compression profile in Compressor.
That said if the file you are sending them is a straightforward QT PAL/NTSC DV file from FCP there is no logical reason why they cannot open it.
How are you giving it to them on disk, via the web ?

I use iBookAuthor to make a textbook for my students; I revised it, including title page, but when I export it and upload it to my iPad, the old title page appears, even though I've deleted the older version of the text before I upload the new one.

Last year I produced a textbook using iBookAuthor for my students. I exported it as an iBook and they uploaded it to their iPads. This year, I revised it, including revising the title page. However, when I upload the new version, the old title page is shown, not the new one. I deleted the older version of the textbook before I did this. I've been told that I can cut and paste each revised chapter into a new template and that will work; however, title page and glossary can't be cut and pasted. Any thoughts for getting the entire new version on the iPad? I'm also told that if it is uploaded to an iPad that never had a previous version of this textbook, it will upload correctly. But my iPad has had several older versions, now deleted.

I had a similar issue when trying to create an iBook file to submit for course credit for one of the Apple Learning Essentials classes I took. I had a book I'd started previously which I updated and submitted, and then had to make some edits to for the course evaluator. I made the edits, and when I previewed the book in iBooks Author, it looked correct, but whatever I sent to him only showed some of the edits - for example a new page I created was there, but some edits I made to image captions and the title page image were not.
What worked for me was to do a "Save as" of the actual Author file to a totally new location (I used the Desktop), and then submit that file - which seemed to work in terms of the changes sticking. I even used the same file name.
I'm not sure if some similar action might help you (maybe change the file name slightly?) or if you've already tried something like this.
Still doesn't change the fact that this is a pretty irritating bug.

How do I open movies made with older versions of iMovie?

I have newer iMac with iMovie 10.0.02 and would like to open movies created with an older version of iMovie. I was informed by the people at the Apple Store this could be done. Does anyone know how? In the end I would like to create high def copies that can be viewed on a Mac laptop.

Hi
I was informed by the people at the Apple Store this could be done.
That depends up-on from what old iMovie version.
- iMovie 1 to HD6 - is one program and it's evolution - Will Not be possibly to open with any other program.
- iMovie'08 v.7 to iMovie'13 v.10.0.x - is a compleatly other product (wrongly named as iMovie in my opinion) - can open older files from this evolution. (Not from iM 1 - 6)
So it depends greatly from what version that You mean.
Please tell.

Export and import a whole older version datebase to a new one

Hi, everyone,
There is a requirement to export one Oracle database(8.0.5) and import into one database instance(Oracle 8.1.7 over WinNT). Are there any detailed procedure or check to follow for this operation? or any document and URL helpful can guide this operation.
Or anything should be carefully for different version and different OS?
Thanks in advance,
Hawk

You need to run your export with the older version software. In other words, use the 8.1.7 version export program if you want into import to 8.1.7. This 8.1.7 export file will also be compatible with the 8.0.5 import program, but not the other way around.
There's a compatibility matrix on Metalink. If you have a Metalink account, logon and do a search on "import export compatibility matrix".

Export to an older version of premiere?

Is there a way to export to older versions of premiere from CS4?

The best that you will be able to do is to do a rough edit in the newer version, and then Export, as say DV-AVI Type II w/ 48KHz 16-bit Audio. Then, start a New Project in Pr 5, and Import that DV-AVI. Edit as necessary.
Good luck,

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I have an MPEG4 movie running. I don't know why but Quicktime Player will not let me open this file now to shut it down. Any tips on how to do this? I've tried installing an older version QuickTime Player 7. OS Maveriks

I have an iMac with an OSX 10.9.5. I have an MPEG4 program that is running. QuickTime Player can't open it up for me to stop it. What are my options? I've tried downloading QuickTime Player 7, an older version but that hasn't helped.

Not sure what you mean then. Is QuickTime still open and playing the video? If so, do you mean you can't even get back to QT to shut it down?
Check the Dock for the QT logo. Click it to bring that app to the foreground. The menu bar then should say QuickTIme Player next to the Apple logo. Close the app and the video will shut down with it.

IDVD 08 is a bummer. How do I return to an older version?

I had iLife 04 on my Mac for ages, but I just bought and installed iLife 08.
Mistake!
IDVD 08 will not open any of my old iDVD projects; it just sits there with the beachball spinning or doing nothing at all. All the old projects now have the blue and white iDVD 08 icon, but they don't open. Likewise "Open Previous Project" doesn't work.
So, I attempted to recreate some of my old projects in iDVD 08 by dumping the Quicktime movies that were originally used to create the old iDVD 4 projects (QuickTime movies that were exported from Final Cut Express), but I can't seem to drag and drop them into iDVD's background like I could with iDVD 4. When I drag the icon of the QT movie over into iDVD's window, the + sign does not appear, indicating that it's ready to drop, and when I let go of the mouse button, the QT movie's icon returns to the folder where the file resides.
Most of the time, when trying to open or create any project, iDVD just sits there with its beachball spinning, or does nothing at all, so that I have to force-quit it (and then I trash the .plist).
This version of iDVD seems like a real bummer. I can't get it to do anything.
How do I return to iDVD 4? Can I Trash iDVD 08 and then reinstall iDVD 04 from the iLife 04 DVD?
Tom

Very rarely do I recommend reverting to an older version of iLife once the current version is already installed. But in your own situation, perhaps this is best ..... given the fact apple's iLife'08 isn't intended for a G4. You need a G5 or better for iMovie apparently within iLife 08. iDVD's system requirements call for at least a G4 733. But I haven't seen anyone post on this iDVD forum who has the latest version of iDVD successfully running on a G4.
Use the following app at your own risk to remove iDVD:

Good luck!

Problems using projects created in older versions of iMovie

I have a few projects created in older versions of iMovie, as far back as version 2 as well as more recent versions. Most of those projects are finished and I want to burn them to DVD again, but a couple of them could bear a little touch up editing. These projects are precious movies of our kids and hard to replace. Although I could probably find the original video, I put many hours of work into creating these projects.
In any case, when I open up an old project, I get a warning that goes something like this: "The project was saved with an older version of iMovie. Opening it in this version will cause it to be upgraded, which will make it unreadable by older versions. Are you sure you want to open it?"
I clicked okay, thinking "sure, I don't need to play it in an older version. I have iMovie HD."
However, now when I play my old iMovie project, there are a few problems. For example, one original movie's title was over black. When I play the movie, I get a completely white screen and no title. Also, in another movie, when viewing the movie in full screen, the transitions were replaced by a black screen (although the transitions were there when I viewed the movie in the iMovie window). Basically, there are problems cropping up here and there.
I need to do some more experimenting with all this to more fully understand how many problems there are. I don't know if the projects I opened in iMovie HD are now "broken" since I "upgraded" them with iMovie HD (when prompted to save the project's changes when quitting, I said NO, don't save changes).
I don't know if I should use older versions of iMovie to view and burn to DVD these projects. (I still have iMovie 2 and 3, but not 4 or 5. I don't know if older versions would even work on my Quad G5 with OS 10.4.7.) I also don't know if the older versions of iMovie would work with the current version of iDVD. How can I tell which version of iMovie was originally used for a given project? How can I find iMovie 4 or 5 if I need it?
I also wonder if projects I make with iMovie HD can be opened by future versions of iMovie, or if I should export them as Quicktime or something to be safe.
As I start to look into this further, I would appreciate any comments, suggestions, and experiences that you may be able to offer. I need to get these movies back to their former selves, when they looked good!

Excellent! That should leave you in pretty good shape. More below.
I don't know if I should use older versions of iMovie
to view and burn to DVD these projects. (I still have
iMovie 2 and 3, but not 4 or 5. I don't know if older
versions would even work on my Quad G5 with OS
10.4.7.)
The old versions of iMovie will run just fine in today's OSX. (But not iMovie 2 if it was the version that ran in Classic instead of Mac OSX.)
I run versions 2,3,4,5 and 6 today. Problems are minimal.
I also don't know if the older versions of
iMovie would work with the current version of iDVD.
That's not a problem unless your old iMovie projects contain chapters. If you tell iMovie 3 to create a new iDVD project, it might not work. You might not be able to transfer the chapter information to the newer version of iDVD.
(I just tested iMovie 3 to iDVD 6 and everything worked just fine.)
Except for iMovie 2, all old versions of iMovie stored a small QuickTime reference movie in the project folder. If you can't get an old version of iMovie to play nice with iDVD, drag that movie into the iDVD window.
How can I tell which version of iMovie was originally
used for a given project?
Drop the project file (discussed below) onto the TextEdit icon in the Dock. The version of iMovie that last saved the project is shown in the first few lines of the project file.
iMovie 5 used an entirely different project file format, the pList format. The top of the project file will look like this in TextEdit:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
How can I find iMovie 4 or
5 if I need it?
eBay?
I also wonder if projects I make with iMovie HD can
be opened by future versions of iMovie, or if I
should export them as Quicktime or something to be
safe.
We can never assume any new version of iMovie will be able to understand all features of a older project. It's always smart to make a backup.
There can be problems Apple can't anticipate. There may be third-party software used to create titles, transitions and special effects, plug-ins not installed with the new version or (more often, incompatible). The fonts installed on our Mac may have changed too. There's lots of features that can't be anticipated. I've never had a problem converting projects, but I never use third-party add-ons and special fonts.
As I start to look into this further, I would
appreciate any comments, suggestions, and experiences
that you may be able to offer. I need to get these
movies back to their former selves, when they looked
good!
My guess is it should be possible to restore the projects back to their original state.
Note that when imovie 5/6 converts an older project, it does NOT create a true iMovie HD project. Instead of creating an iMovie package, it retains the project FOLDER format. It places new iMovie HD elements inside the old project folder instead of converting it to a package.
When converting the project it changes the old project file name to "Sample Project Name.iMovie2Project", then creates a NEW project file with the plist format, having the name "Sample Project Name.iMovieProj". (There may NOT be the .iMovieProj extension.) When you save the new project, it adds a new project file "Sample Project Name.~iMovieProj". Note the tilde. The tilde file is a backup of the project file as it was when last saved in iMovie HD.
For our purposes, ignore the iMovie HD project files. We'll use the file ".iMovie2Project" to restore the project. (The extension is the same for all old versions of iMovie, not just iMovie 2.)
• In the Finder, Duplicate the entire project folder. Work on the copy.
• Open the project folder in the Finder.
• Discard the "Cache" folder, the "Shared Movies" folder, the "Audio Waveforms" folder and the two iMovie HD project files. (Some of those items may not yet exist yet because you didn't save the converted project.)
• Drop the "Sample Project Name.iMovie2Project" file onto the TextEdit icon in the Dock to get the version. Close it.
• Remove the ".iMovie2Project" extension, if you want.
• Launch that version of iMovie. Drop the "Sample Project Name.iMovie2Project" file icon on the iMovie icon in the Dock. With luck, the project should open normally. It's possible any third-party plug-ins used to create the project may not be available. If they aren't available, there might still be problems.
• Move your unconverted projects to folders that say which version of iMovie created them. To open them in the future, drop the project icon on the appropriate version of iMovie.
If all this fails, there is another way to do the editing you want. That is to import the project.mov file that's inside the converted project folder to a new iMovie HD project. That will deliver the video and audio of the original project as a single clip. Use that to re-edit the project. The name of the movie is "Sample Project Name.mov".
(The movie is a QuickTime reference movie, with no video and audio of its own, just pointers to the files in the Media folder. So long as the Media folder hasn't changed, it can play the original project as last saved.)
Importing the project.mov won't work with iMovie 2 projects, however, for iMovie 2 didn't store a project.mov file in the project folder.
Even if you end up importing the project.mov, you still may want to "unconvert" the project as described above.
Hope I haven't skipped a step. Let me know if you bump your head on something.

How do I open te files in older versions of Director?

I made a movie in Director 11 and it doesn't open in director
10. It show's a message like "file is too new". I tried to find in
Director 11 an option for saving in older versions of director but
I didn't find anything. How's that possible?

It isn't possible to directly convert a D11 file to a D10
file. The
file format is not backwards compatible and there is no way
within
Director to save it as an older version. There is a guy named
Valentin
who made a XML exporter for the Director format, so using his
scripts
you can save the D11 version to XML, then reconvert that XML
into D10.
It is only a beta thing, and there is no official support for
it, but
you can try it for free and see if it works for you.
