Having trouble selecting part of a movie

indicators for empty selection.'
but doesn't help.
can anyone give us any help please...
thanks,

QT Pro is working normally here. Multiplexed compression formats like MPG (MPEG-1) are "playback only" supported by the QT structure. They cannot be edited or converted (and retain audio). If you wish to select a portion of such files, use the free MPEG Streamclip application. Selected content can then either be saved using the "Save As..." option or converted to a fully supported compression format (and retain audio).

  • Having trouble watching part of a movie and then trying to finish later

    I have a 5th generation classic.  I watched a movie last night and stopped it in the middle of it.  When I cam back this morning, I figured that it would start in same place in the movie but it did not.  When I had my 5th gen. nano, I could do that.  Can I do that with the classic?  Thanks for any help you can give me.

  • Having trouble syncing iPad to get movies onto it.....any ideas?

    For some reason I am having trouble syncing movies onto my iPad. They are in my iTunes library, I check the box hit apply/sync then nothing.
    Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

    Been there, done that...........
    It appears that when I sync it seems the sync is syncing the computer with the iPad not iPad with computer.
    I have delegated all movies on iPad when I check some movies on iTunes it adds the purple bar at the bottom and availability of space decreases accordingly. When I hir apply/sync it goes through the process then when finishes step four the purple bar at the bottom goes and available space increases again.

  • Dim all but a selected part of the movie

    I'd like to draw attention to a certain (rectangular) part of the screen.
    Is it possible to dim all but a selected part of the screen?
    Thanks

    Very simple.
    Duplicate the clip and put it on V2 above the original clip on V1.
    Apply a colour correction filter or blur to the clip on V1.
    Load the V2 clip into the Viewer and using the motion tab crop out the rectangle.
    This will work a treat assuming the shots are static.

  • Hi! I'm from Brazil and I'm having troubles with subtitles. Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

    Watching movies from iTunes and Netflix, the subtitles shows yellow, too small and into gray boxes! I'm having this kind of trouble with my iPad also.

    Solution found.
    I am a Vodafone customer and installed the Vodafone app which asks you to turn off wifi connection on installation as it needs to communicate with their servers over 3G.
    After restoring the iPad via iTunes this is the only app that I did nor re-install and seems to be too much of coincidence that while in full screen view watching films my wifi is switched off and 3G data connection is established 10 - 15 minutes into a fiilm and my data allowance gets eaten up!
    I would also get push notifications from Vodafone saying "my daily data usage was almost used" with this app installed.
    Have tested and on 3rd time watching sky go still wifi is on after 30 mins.
    DO NOT INSTALL VODAFONE APP FROM THE APP STORE.

  • Apply effect to selected part of the movie

    Hi, I'm working in a movie and I would like to select just a bit (for instance, one minute) and apply and effect to this one-minute part.
    How can I do it?
    Thanks very much in advance for your answer

    Hi, thanks for your answer. I think I do as you say.
    I mark the I and O points. It is highlighted. I dropped the effect on the timeline or on the clip but it affects to all the movie.
    I can not see any way to apply it only to the highlighted section. Maybe I'm doing something wrong??? or did I miss anything????
    Thanks again. Looking forward to your answer

  • I am having trouble selecting (by mouse) a longer form when either previewing or when published

    Dear Adobe Community,
    In Adobe Muse, a longer form (modified via the widget) is giving me trouble after I created it since it isn't selecting the fields correctly (by mouse). You can tab through the fields fine. I have tried isolating the form on a clean page and it does the same thing as when surrounded by other elements.
    I have looked at it by previewing as well as published it on Business Catalyst with the same results. see http://formproblem.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
    How do I fix this?
    Sincerely,
    William

    Hello,
    I just checked, it seems to be Title field at the top which is creating issues with this form. The "required" (text) for the error state of title field is extending the title field area and causing part of the fields below it not accessible.
    Please try to delete and reinsert the title field to check if it works fine or not. And please make sure you delete the *required field (or disable it) before moving the title field and then you can enable the required text message back.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Sachin

  • I am having trouble downloading a previously purchased movie from the Cloud.

    The movie in question is "The Mist." I have purchased a lot of movies from iTunes lately, and to save room on my Mac, I have moved all the movie files onto a portable hard drive and simply deleted them from my Mac. Thus, whenever I want to watch a movie, I just transfer it from my hard drive back onto my Mac no problem, and watch the movie. Somehow, "The Mist" got deleted from my hard drive, so I figured "No worries, I'll just download it from the Cloud and get the file back. I've done it before!"
    iTunes does this frustrating thing where even if you delete the video file from your computer, the movie thumbnail still shows up in your movies library, and I guess the Cloud considers this as you still having the movie on your computer, because when I went to my purchase history, it said the movie was already downloaded on my computer, when in fact it was not (it also said this for all my other movies, which are not on my computer but on my PHD). Only after I deleted the thumbnail for the movie did it show up under "Not on this computer" and allow me to hit the download button. Then I get this message saying "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 80 days." It will not let me download my previously purchased movie!
    I have already tried logging out and back in again, that did nothing. Do I seriously have to wait 90 days to redownload my movie again? Like, is that a thing? What if you have a hard drive wipe, and have to redownload everything from the Cloud again; would you seriously only be able to redownload all your movies in 90 day incriments? What if I need to redownload multiple purchased movies at once, do I have to wait 90 days in between each one?
    Am I the only one having this problem? If so, any help would be appreciated.
    If this is not a "problem" and merely a "thing" iTunes does for security reasons, then this is a complaint. I have legally purchased this movie under the same account that I'm currently trying to redownload it through, I find it ridiculous that I should have to wait 90 days; you don't have to wait this long for downloading multiple apps/songs/books. Alternatively, trying to redownload the movie from its store page on iTunes is not an option, because as far as I can tell, iTunes does not let you redownload already purchased movies from their store page, as with apps/songs/books. If you try to re-purchase a movie, in the hopes that it will simply let you download it for free, seeing as how you've ALREADY purchased it, instead it'll gladly charge you again for movie. So no, I am not willing to purchase the movie again, I would just like to re-download it from the Cloud as I've done with other movies before it. I don't know what makes this one different.

    I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
    And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
    And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

  • Having trouble with html snippets and movies in iweb 09

    Hi I have built a site iweb2.0.4 and recently moved it onto my new machine with iweb 09 on. Basically I have been putting in videos that I have exported for web out of Quicktime. In the past I have simply added an html snippet code like this in <iframe src="http://evileducation.org/stammuraifinalcomp/ReadMe.html" style="width: 340px; height: 285px"; scrolling="no" controller="true" frameborder="0"></iframe>
    I edit the ReadMe.html based on a tutorial I saw and it loads the movie after pressing the "Click to play" button. Now in 09 when I put the code in to the snippet it just shows a Quicktime symbol with a question mark. if you check the link below you can see the videos with the best I have managed to do so far which is get the new movies on but they both autoplay (I have linked in this instance to the 4kb .mov in each folder rather than the readme.html.). I don't want to just drag a video in I would like the options to view on phone or on computer etc and not for them to autoplay. Is there a new/ different way to do this now. Surely it shouldn't be this hard to get the export for web in Quicktime and iWeb to work together? The frustrating thing is if you check the link below the old movies work fine still it's just the 2 new ones. Soz for the long one!

  • Having trouble selecting text in Illustrator CS5

    Hi!
    I've a little problem, when I select text by double click it do not show me the black selection...I don't know why?
    Any ideas?
    Thx
    Ciao!

    If you double-click on a text with the selection tool, the text tool should get selected and the text-cursor is set into the text.
    What do you want to do with the text object? Do you want to edit the text (then double clicking is OK) or do you want to push the text around the artboard, then don't double click.

  • Illus. CS3 Windows: Im having trouble selecting text when objects are beneath it.

    Technically, I CAN select text, its just a pain in the ***. There is a very fine line to click on and I usually end up selecting the obnect that the text is on top of. If someone knows another way to do this I will be most appreciative.
    Cheers,

    Have you perhaps enabled the Type Object Selection by Path Only option (see Illustrator preferences) ?
    If so, disable it.

  • I'm having trouble using COLOR for my movie

    I'm using Color for my movie I'm editing on FCP so this may be more of a question for the Color forums, but I figured I would get a faster response here.
    When I go to open Color, it gives me a message saying:
    "Color recommends that your system have 128 MB of VRAM; this system only has 64 MB of VRAM."
    What does this mean? How do I get more VRAM?

    You need to upgrade your graphics card (if possible).
    VRAM is the RAM your graphics card has...

  • Having trouble downloading digital version of movies from the cloud to my mac.

    Keep getting a error = -50 or error = - 1309. Have deleted the previously failed download attempts, but get the same error message when I try again. Can anyone advise on what I'm doing wrong as I have never had this problem in the past?

    Hello jarhna,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your downloading items you purchased from iTunes.  I don't think you're doing anything wrong, but I did find an article that has steps to address the error you are getting:
    iTunes Store: "Error (-50)" when downloading purchased content

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
