Having problems seeing Movie

Just completed my first Movie but am having problems. When I scroll over the movie the audio and video both play. When I play in the preview video and export to itunes/youtube the video is black?
This is probably a very simple thing I'm doing wrong nevertheless at the moment very frustrating.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

When I look at what it says in the iphoto export it indicates this:
Compression: Cinepak
Quality: Medium
key Frame Rate: 24
data Rate: 90kbytes/sec
Wow! That is an old one which I had not even considered testing. Will probably have to run some tests on my own to confirm it, but for the moment am assuming this compression format has the same export problem as both Animation and Video. Frankly, I am surprised that it even imported at all since the Sorenson/Sorenson 3 compressed formats would not and I simply stopped testing at that point. My advice would be to convert one of your files to one of the "proven to be compatible" formats (like DV, AIC, M-JPEG, Photo-JPEG, MPEG-4, H.264, etc.) and perform a test project export of the single file to see if it exports normally. If it does, the you have located the problem and should probably report it via iMovie Feedback.
Also, if you open it in the QT Player and check the "Inspector" window, you should find the audio compression format used. Would be interested in leaning which was used with your video here.

  • I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
    A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds.  Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.

  • I am having problems streaming movies to my ipad from my mac. The movie starts and then pauses and then starts again. any ideas?

    I am having challenges streaming movies from my Mac Mini to my IPAD 3, the movie will load (after what seems a bit too long) and start to play. It then stops after 30-50 seconds and if I leave will start again, but repeat the start stop thing. Its almost like it stops to buffer than starts again. I have had the same issue appear wiht my Iphone 5.
    Thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • HT1657 having problems renting movies on appleTV

    We are having problems using our appleTV, earlier today it wouldn't show up on my ipad while watching a podast, we had to watch it form the ipad instead of the TV.
    Then we rented a movie from the iTunes store on the appleTV and it told us it would take 16 hours to download and watch it, then it changed to 20 hours and then 23 hours. I am about to take the dog gone unit back and tell them to keep it. This happened earlier last week where we ended up paying twice to watch a movie on both the iPad and appleTV. Thankfully they reimbursed us.  Help !!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • Having problem seeing "notes"

    I am having a problem seeing the notes I put on my Nano. I am composing and saving in TextEdit, but have been unable to save files in .txt, as specified in the Nano manual. When I did save using .txt, I got a warning saying I would also have to use .rtf. The files are saving, but I can't actually see their contents.
    On my Nano, "enable disc use" is greyed out, but checked. The online documentation says this is O.K. and means the Nano disc is enabled.
    Please let me know what I'm doing wrong. I really think the notes capability is a great feature. I want to use it.
    Thanks!

    That means that you are using fonts, formatting, and/or other features that are not part of *'plain text'*, TextEdit then advises to save as rtf. Just get rid of anything that is not text, and save it like the manual says.

  • Mac osx 10.3.9 downloaded safari 1.3.2 having problems seeing emails :S

I have spoken to technical help at yahoo who have said i have a problem with my session cookies (not actually sure what they are). Can anybody help me please.

    Hi Smily,
    I have spoken to technical help at yahoo who have said i have a problem with my session cookies (not actually sure what they are).
    When you trash or drag the Cookie.plist out of the Cookie folder you have to enter ALL your log-inn paswords again when you visi a website that requires these settings you ones made.
    To find the Cookies, go to Home folder>Library>Cookies
    Now drag the Cookie.plist to the desktop "don't trash it yet"
    * Now relaunch Safari an visit the Yahoo web site an log-inn, enter your password.
    When everything is working well than trash the Cookie.plist that you keep on your desktop ...
    Good luck ...

  • Anyone having problems seeing (any) content in movies since the software upgrade

    After performing the software upgrade no longer pulling any content in to the movie channel and even though I can still see "top movies" on the home page when I click through the second page doesn't load. Internet connection seems fine and trailers are loading and streaming fine, is it just me?

    I'm having the same problem. I called Apple and they gave me three options. One was pay a $19.95 fee for this one time fix & they could help me or go to itunes or apple's tech websites! Wow Apple isn't what it use to be. Also the lady I spoke with was rude. We're an Apple lover but not sure for how long!

  • I am having problems seeing old events/photos.  It looks my problems started when I updraded to OS X

    I am unable to see my old photos/events on IPhoto and I fear I might have lost them for good.  It looks it all started when I upgraded my OS to OS X Maverics.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Ipod touch is having problems downloading movies

    whenever i try to download a movie, it will download till it is almost done, and then it will say "download error. Tap to retry" i will "tap" it and then it will process a little and say it again. i purchased them on my ipod with a gift card. and i am going away today, so i purchased them last night for the flight. i try to transfer them to itunes but it doesn't work. please help!

    Hey Silverdemon, sounds like a short, most likely in the headphones. Try a different set of headphones with this iPod or try the headphones with a different device. If the problem stops with your iPod or it moves to another device, then replace the headphones. If within 1 year of date of purchase Apple will replace the headphones for  free if problem is a defect, not abuse. If the problem continues with a different set of headphones, check the port for damage and foreign debris. If you note debris, attempt to remove it, if damage noted contact Apple and set up an appointment to have it evaluated. if nothing appears wrong, try plugging / unplugging to jack about 12 times maybe corrosion on the contacts if so that should clean it. Next thing to try reset your iPod. After that try restore from backup. Last resort, restore to new. Just make sure you make a full backup to your computer before you restore so no data is lost. If nothing works, contact Apple and set up an appointment to have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

  • I am having problems viewing movies I rented from Itunes!

    Happy holidays everyone!  So I rented 2 movies from my 2nd Gen Apple TV this morning.  The content loads without an issue but it will not validate the authorization to play the movie.  I checked the software and reupdated it accordingly.  Now, mysteriously, the rented movies no longer appear in my start up menu and I still have the same problem with not being able to play the rented content.  My Netflix account streams media with no difficulty.  Whats the deal?  Any ideas?

    Hi, I have the same problem.  It keeps trying to authorize - one time it said servers down try later.  I tried again, then it seemed to lock in authorizing mode, so I restarted.  I must have clicked on the film a number of times to view, and finally it said that it has been rented!  But it disapeared from the start up menu as rented.  Maybe something is going on because of the holidays - too many of us,  Anyone else out there?

  • I want to access my acount but it will not recognize my email or password. I am having problems seeing pictures and plugins on Firefoz and wanted to disable some addions and se if this would help the problem

    I cannot see many pictures on my start page. On my eBay page I cannot see most pictures and my plugin for signing in on my eBay page are missing.
    I wanted to disable some Firefox Add On's and see if this would help.
    I have no problems with Explorer but I prefer to use Firefox.

    When you were entering your new password in mac mail for your Yahoo account, you didn't perchance change the user name from [email protected] to just name without the @att.net? I only ask because I've done that, and att.yahoo mail requires a fully qualified [email protected] for access.
    In mail, you might click on window on the menu bar, then connection doctor. On the account with the red dot next to it, it will tell you why it can't connect, and if you click on it, you'll be taken to where you can fix it. 

  • Having problems playing movies on my online portfolio

    I've been scouring the internet for an answer to my problem, but have yet to find one.
    I've set up a fairly simple online portfolio housing my animation, everything else runs smoothly, except when you get the portfolio section (as you can see if you go to my site: http://www.sugarpollution.com/). I've tried to have it so that videos will pop up and play and then you can exit them by clicking on the X button (which loops back to portfolio section on the timeline). However I have come across several errors that I cannot seem to fix ~ the sound of the video will play in the background if you prematurely exit it and then none of the links above the video buttons will work (which doesn't seem to happen except when you view a video).
    I'd paste the action script ~ but now I can't seem to find it which is perplexing, as it runs fine in the preview window.
    Help would be much appreciated, thank you.

    you need to explicitly stop your video when you click your X button or stop all sound globally (stopAllSounds() ) when it's clicked.

  • Having problems seeing multiple hard drives attached to my Airport Extreme.

    I just bought a refurbished Airport Extreme from Apple.com. I set it up and have been able to access my powered, 1 TB desktop hard drive, but when I attach a powered USB hub and two additional hard drives that are not powered (they're both portable, USB-powered drives), I'm usually only able to see my 1 TB desktop drive. When I can see them, it's only through the Airport Utility app and it says they're 0 mb drives. I'm never able to see them in Finder. I'm never able to drop anything onto either of the drives. Only the 1 TB drive. If anyone knows why and can help, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

    How are the portables formatted?

  • Having Problems Seeing your LiveCycle Designer Forms on the iPAD Adobe Reader App?

    I'm not a computer wize and very new to Adobe and creating forms with LiveCycle.  So apologize to anyone that reads this and says "duh", but hopefully it will be helpful to someone out there who is struggling like I was.
    First off - the IPad will will definitely be able to view your livecycle forms regardless of what anyone else says!  These were my steps;
    1. Create form in LiveCycle Designer.
    2. When you save, select "save as"
    3. When the dialogue box opens, and you are creating the name of what you are going to call your file, below you will see a drop down box labeled "Save As Type".  Make sure you switch the file type to "Adobe Static PDF Form (*.pdf)"
    And that's it!
    Here is another tip for a user like me:)
    I need to create a form to post to a website, where people fill it in and save it to their computers.  I found that when I just saved the form straight from LiveCycle Designer and then posted, some of the free adobe versions wouldn't let the user fill it in.  So this is what I did,
    1. Follow the first 3 steps I listed above.
    2. Next open Adobe (the full version) not the reader.  I have Adobe X.
    3. Got to "Save As".  It will give you a bunch of options.  Select "Reader Extended PDF" and then "Enable Additional Features"
    Add that should be it!
    One more tip for the average to low level user.  We had some feedback that when someone open my form in the iPad app. they were not able to fill it in.  They could, but what they didn't realize was they needed to select the icon at the top that is a little picture of a speech bubble and pencile.

    Yup. I filled in the form and made a bunch of comments, closed the app and everything I had filled in on the form was still there. I also tried emailing the filled in form to myself and opening it. The comments and filled in sections don't appear when I open it in my email viewer, but as long as I open it in the adobe app everything is still there.  
    Now all I have to do is to convince my web guy not to be mad when I Tell him he has to repost all my files (JK) ;)
