PLEASE HELP--gotoandPlay plays through frames I dont want it to.

Hello--I am an architecture student and I am having problems
with my Flash website. I have uploaded my half-done website on
http://ilocker.bsu.edu/users/msgoyak/WORLD_SHARED/
My animations end on frame 311, where I have five buttons
linking to different frames (The Resume button links to 312 and the
About Me button links to 313 using
on (release) {gotoAndPlay(frame number);
I also have "back" buttons on 312 and 313 which link back to
311. All three frames have the stop command applied.
My problem: Whenever I publish and try to click on Resume or
About Me, it will only play to 312 due to the stop command, thereby
not allowing me to get to the About Me frame (313). I have tried
taking away the stop command but then when I click on the About Me
button the timeline plays through 312 to get to 313 and you can
actually see it flash through on-screen. I just want ithese buttons
to jump to their respective frames and stop, without seeing
anything in-between or stopping where it shouldn't. Is there a
specific actions script that needs to be applied or would it be
easier to create new flash documents for each link?
Hopefully someone can help m after viewing the website
itself.
I have version 7 MX 2004.
Thank you if you can provide any feedback!!!!!! Hopefully
this frustration thing can be corrected.

A: PLEASE HELP--gotoandPlay plays through frames I dont want it to.

Use the gotoAndStop(frame number): instead of play.
The playhead will stop on the disignated frame, and you won't
need a stop
action on it.

Need help to play a DV file in full screen mode w/o losing resolution

I just finished a 20 minute film using iMovie, and in order to share it, I created a Quicktime DV File using the Full Quality mode. However, when I play the obtained Quicktime file in full screen, the images become blurry and the titles are unreadable, so I am forced to sticking to the standard size (which is relatively small).
I need to project this video THIS SAME WEEK on a screen in front of a large crowd and the largest screen size for Quicktime to avoid pixelation is very small (1/6 of my screen).
Is there any way in which I can get a larger resolution DV file than the one iMovie creates? How can I share this with the audience w/o having to project it from the original iMovie file?
HELP PLEASE...!!!!! I am desperate, so any urgent advice will be greatly appreciated. And please note I am a novice at iMovie (first time I used it). Any help to increase the resolution quality of my DV file will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Any help to increase the resolution quality of my DV file will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
For faster editing iMovie 08 & 09 uses single-field processing. This means every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage. iMovie 06 uses all of the image, I think you will find it looks better.
iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 is a terrific combination.

I have moved all of my music from my laptop to a portable hard drive...need help :( cant play music

Hi all,
I moved all my music from my laptop to a portable hard drive, my hope was that i could just plug and play into my mabook air not the case...
I was wondering if anyone could help with the following, in a perfect world i would love to be able to keep the music on my drive (there is about 500 gb worth) and then when i want to play through mac to apple tv be able to just plug into mac and then be good to go, or if poss for itunes to be able to recognise the music on my portable drive...and for me then to play through itunes without adding it (as there wouldnt be enough space)...and to also have the capability to plug the drive into my windows comp and be able to also still play from there.
I dont know if any of this is poss...it all seems really complicated to me...and i am new to mac.
If anyone thinks they could help please get in touch!
my main goal is to be able to play my music through apple tv to the surround system in the house, and to be able to play music through my mac if poss, doesnt have to be itunes so long as i can air play or even better select through apple tv.
thanks so much in advance to anyone who can help me out
p.s. i tried this...didnt work, unless i am doing it wrong

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
Windows users see tip at: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18879381
If you put it in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
Do not confuse (as you did) moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in
iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Media folder - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1449

ITunes Extras for The Help not playing

I bought The Help in HD with iTunes Extras. I can't seem to play any of the videos such as the deleted scenes. I contacted Apple Support and they sent me another file to download again. The same problem still occurs though. Apple said that they'll look into it.
I broswed my computer hard drive and found the missing files for the bonus videos. They're all located in C:\Users\Owner\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Downloads\The Help - iTunes Extras _ Tate Tayl.tmp\The Help - iTunes Ex 1.tmp. There's a total of 8 videos loacted in 8 different folders titled Tate Tal.tmp\The Help - iTunes Ex 1-8.tmp, but the files names are all titled download. They can't be opened in iTunes Extras because they don't have the correct file name.

I've seen a few of these threads now. I think the current build of iTunes must be failling to unpack the video files properly. I've had another hunt around the Extras folder structure and it seems the files are detailed in ...\controllers\data.js. This is the relevant section from the Batman Begins Extras:
audioLoop : { src : "audio/batmanbegins_loop.m4a", loop : true},
extras : [
              { thumb : "image_videoBox_mind.png",    structure: "shaping", string : "Shaping Mind & Body",         src : "batmanbegins_shapingmindbody.m4v", time: "12:49",      blurb : "Examining the construction of the fight sequences. "},
              { thumb : "image_videoBox_tumbler.png", structure: "tumbler", string : "Batman: The Tumbler",         src : "batmanbegins_batmantumbler.m4v", time: "13:40",   blurb : "Goyer describes it as a cross between a Lamborghini and a Humvee. This featurette details it from conception to its current form."},
              { thumb : "image_videoBox_journey.png", structure: "journey", string : "Batman: The Journey Begins", src : "batmanbegins_journeybegins.m4v", time: "14:16",   blurb : "Interviews with Christopher Nolan, David Goyer, Christian Bale, production designer Nathan Crowley, as well as others. "}
Using this it might be possible to work out what the temp files should be called. They need to go into a videos folder.

Help me play an audio file in my GUI

Hi
I've been having some trouble getting code to play an audio file in my GUI
Basically all I want to do is play a file in the same directory as the program, and have it loop. No controls, no buttons to change the play state.
Could someone point me to or help me implement this with some example code? I'm really stuck and I'm just not sure how to implement it into the existing GUI class.
Thanks for any help

Hi
I've done so, and the method gets called without any problems, but doesnt play anything.
Have a look -
public void audioFile()
    try {
        // From file
        AudioInputStream stream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new File("test.wav"));
        // From URL
        //stream = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new URL("http://hostname/audiofile"));
        // At present, ALAW and ULAW encodings must be converted
        // to PCM_SIGNED before it can be played
        AudioFormat format = stream.getFormat();
        if (format.getEncoding() != AudioFormat.Encoding.PCM_SIGNED) {
            format = new AudioFormat(
                    AudioFormat.Encoding.PCM_SIGNED,

Please Help: Problem Playing Songs Imported from CD's

I know this question has probably been asked before but I have yet to find an answer to help me fix my problem. When I upload songs from a CD to itunes they won't play. It skips over them. There isn't any wierd symbols next to the song that says that there is something wrong and I am not getting any error messages. The only thing that is wierd is under time it says "not available". I am really bad at using computers and any responses will be greatly appreciated.
P>S> I have windows 2000 but my computer used to have windows XP.

Aloha,
Just a suggestion since I've had a similar problem which has taken me weeks to fix! What happened was the iTunes library files got trashed somehow, but the music was still there! Use Windows Explorer ( run explorer.exe ) and look at My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\ and see whether your music is still there or not. If it is, you're going to have to reimport each album from within iTunes by clicking on File, Import Library, which will bring up a window...browse to the iTunes Music Folder and click on each album...a real pain, but it works! This may leave you with a lot of duplicate songs in your music library which will have " ! " exclamation marks next to them ...they have no links...which you'll have to delete manually ( just the ones with the ! next to them ).
It's important that you back up the two files, iTunes Music Library.xml and Itunes Library.itl every day!!! ( and find some easy way to do it...I not only use an auto backup, I actually copy and paste them into a 'saved' folder. Without them, your iTunes music is ..um..useless!
Hope this helped.

HELP - Problem Playing Music Videos on 5G iPod

I've downloaded 3 music videos to my 60 Video iPod. I've watched all of them recently but today i've got no sound or no picture but the video playlist is still there and the iPod starts to play them but i just get a black screen with the white play arrow and i can alter the volume.
Any ideas or help please???
Many thanks

If the audio for movies plays through the headphones and you see "Now Playing" on the iPod screen with a progress bar, but the video does not appear on the iPod screen, then you may have the TV Out video setting turned on.
To change your TV Out setting so you can view video with your sound:
Navigate on your iPod to Videos > Video Settings
Select TV Out to set it to Off or Ask.
If the issue continues, make sure you are accessing the video through the Videos menu. If you have a video mixed in an audio playlist, you also won't be able to see the video.

New to Quicktime-Please Help-Not Playing Streaming Video

_PLEASE HELP, I AM NEW TO THIS._ I can't see that Quicktime is playing streaming videos. I have the latest version of Quicktime including Perian and every other plug-in I can find. In System Preferences I have tried Automatic and Custom (Port 80) for the Transport Protocol. I have everything checked in the MIME settings. In Safari Preferences I have all the plug-ins enabled. The streaming videos play in Safari, but if I try to open ANY URL in Quicktime, it says URL INVALID. THANK YOU.

I dont believe you can put a youtube link in quicktime itself. An easy way to download them however is to add &fmt=18 for HQ videos or &fmt=22 for HD videos to the end of the youtube url ex http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRSbC6HAgNE&fmt=18 Then load that page and then in safari click window then activity. Find the one with the largest size (should be the only one in MB) and double click on it. THen it will download to where you set safari to download your files.

Help needed playing a dvd on laptop

I recently just bought the HP Pavilion dv5-1235dx laptop. It works like a dream, except for one thing. I can't seem to play dvds. It has windows vista home premium which comes with the Windows Media Center and dvd decoder, but whenever I insert a dvd and click on the mediasmart dvd player, it says "No disc in drive. Please insert a movie"
I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if they were able to fix it, or if anyone has any idea of how to fix this.
My dvd player just wont read dvds. And I've been trying to play commercial dvds-not ones that i created myself. I tried playing "forgetting sarah marshall". So its not something wrong with the dvd.
Thanks.

Id really like to help. However certain issues are beyond the scope of what I can do.
You can check here:
http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html
And follow the directions to see if theres any solutions to your problems.
Otherwise I would try running a factory recovery and see if this clears things up.

Help to play Type: Movie-mpeg1 files

Hey!
I'm very new to Macs so I hope someone can help me with this:
I got some Movie-mpeg1 files from a sony camera, but I can't play the files in my quicktime player.
Someone who can help me?
Thank you

QuickTime Player can view MPEG-1 files so I would guess yours are really MPEG-2.
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2
That extra component will allow MPEG-2 playback in QuickTime.
You can also view them using the free VLC app:

Need help on playing videos on 80 Gb I Pod Classic

Hi,
I need help!!!!!!!!!!!
My I Pod Classic 80 GB jus wont play any video files.
I have set it to manually sync songs and videos using iTunes.
I dont have a problem with any of the music files.
The video files just would'nt play.
The video files are in the .mov format and play both in my quick time player and in i tunes.
However, when I try to add the videos to the iPod, it displays the following error message
"MC_1 was not copied to the iPod 'ar iPod' because it cannot be played on this iPod"
This ipod is new and since i brought it it this is the first time am adding videos to the iPod.
Any suggestions?
P.S. I have also tried automatic sync from itunes and also reset iPod to the factory settings.
Message was edited by: ar_08

Hi Ar_08. It is probably a problem with video format. Make sure you are using a compatable format. What extension does the filehave on it. Check this link - http://support.apple.com/specs/ipod/iPod_classic.html . It will give you information about video and audio format. Good luck.

Need help with playing tracks

Haven't used my player in awhile and never did really learn how to use it well. I have some meditations I've loaded, to listen to e.g. before I go to sleep. I was getting other music playing when the meditation was finished. Think I finally figured out how to get the right track to repeat....BUT I'd really like to turn it off after the one track plays-automatically. Can I do this? Manual not much help! There might be times I'd want it to repeat, times want it to turn off, and times when I might want to switch to another track/mediation and go on. Help??? Thanks!

Black-Rectangle wrote:
When you go into Settings you change the defaults. The unit should remember them after being turned off. Ok.....the Power one seems to stay but Sleep doesn't. Am I doing something wrong or is that one an exception? With Repeat off it should play through the Go List once and stop. If you just want to play one track, just put one track in the Go List. Otherwise it will keep playing through the whole list (your six tracks). Ok.....Got this figured out and moved 5 out of the GoList. And checked and they're still there, in another folder......wasn't sure about that! I'd wondered if I could do this all on the unit and not have to go into the pc to do it. Thanks for the clear info! The Go List is supposed to be the track(s) you want to hear now and only those tracks. It's designed for you to add and remove tracks on the unit itself. To take a track OFF the Go List, start playing it and hold the center button to remove it. You can make more elaborate, more permanent playlists using the computer, but that's actually pretty well explained in the manual. The Go List is made for quick changes. If you set the Power Saver to 10 minutes it will shut off 10 minutes after the last track is played. (It doesn't say automatic, I was just trying to explain what it does.) Got it! The same track can be in the Go List and elsewhere because unless you click all the way down and go to Folders, you are not seeing folders as you would on a computer. You're seeing lists made from the database, which is made from the ID3 tags, electronic labels that are part of each file. Ditto that there is not a separate folder of Albums, a separate folder of Artists, etc.--all that info is gathered from the files and placed under categories like Album, Artist, etc. Each one is like an index, not a folder full of files. The Go List (like other playlists) is a list of locations where the files are. The Sansa sees the list, understands it's a list, and follows the list to play the files you want. Thanks for your patience and clear explanations!! Now I can add more items and move them around as I need to. Considering the sorely incompetent manual, how on earth do total newbies figure all this out? Why isn't the manual more comprehensive (not that you should know why but just wondering!!) I want to also ask about finding an ac adapter to charge the unit off the pc but figure I should start a new thread!! Don't want to lose you! Somewhere on here someone sugg using a cell phone charger. Tried mine, the plug looks the same size but will only go in part way and then the battery icon has a slash through it. Others said it's faster with an adapter. Also want to ask about updating the software......others on here recc some specific softward to download (have to look it up again) rather than the Sansa software (don't think it's available now); would doing that/updating the software help? and would there be more capabilities with it? Just let me know if I should start new threads for these? Thanks again! I am really grateful for your help!

Help - Itunes plays all music fragmented/chopped up/mangled suddenly.

I've had this problem happen a couple times already. All the audio/movie files play properly. Then all of a sudden itunes won't play audio clearly. The sound is all chopped and fragmented. It sounds like choppy cell phone service or that the audio is being played through a fan or something.
In the past I've always reinstalled my itunes and everything was fine. This time I tried that a couple times and it doesn't change anything. I get the same old choppy/fragmented sound. Help me get my itunes working again. (I've got windows XP OS, all the updated drivers & windows updates, aswell as all my active x updates. - what else is there?) (FYI I also run a 30 GB ipod photo from it.)
Any help would be appreciated in me getting my itunes back to playing properly and clearly. Any ideas why this keeps happening? I'm not aware of any significant changes to my PC or file set up to cause the change.
thanks.

hi Skippy!
let's try working through the possibilities in this document. if you've got an itunes version 5.0.x or 6.0.x, you'll need to check the QT 7 settings:
