How do I play a movie in a separate window and why will my movie not float on top?

I like to watch movies in a smaller, separate window that floats on top of any other windows.  Since I installed all of the updates, I can not get this to happen.  I read and thought that if you click on the artwork it would launch a separate window but it will launch a music file.  Help please!

You'll need some sort of additional software. You can still get iDVD by purchasing the iLife '11 retail box (it's available from the Apple Store or probably any Apple dealer). Or you can get other software such as Roxio's Toast. There's also a simple free application you can try:

  • HT4640 How do I play a "movie" not a video on keynote for iPad.

    I spent two hours googling this problem with VERY mixed results. I am trying to import a video I recorded with a camera onto my iPad so that I can embed it in a Keynote presentation. First, despite tips on how to change the format/file name, I could not get the file onto my ipad using an sd card and the camera connection kit. I put the video into itunes, tried to sync. Despite being the proper .mov format, it would not sync to the ipad as it "cannot be played on this ipad". I googled this problem, I was told to go to the advanced menu in itunes and convert it to an ipad format. There is no more advanced menu. I googled this problem, I found that the settings are now distributed throughout the other menus. I finally found the option in the File menu. I converted the file. It transfered to the iPad. Whew, finally, I'm done. No. The video is now only accessible in the Movies app. Keynote refuses to recognize this as a valid place to select videos: there is no option for this. What a gigantic waste of time. How can I put this video on my iPad in such a way as to use it with Keynote. I have to say, that I used to flaunt Mac's ease of use... I can easily say that this nightmare has reversed that opinion completely.
    Btw, I am using windows xp, and an iPad 2 with 6.0.1. iTunes version 11.0.1.12
    I also tried creating a playlist in itunes with the movie and syncing. This also did nothing.

  • How can i play a movie in keynote from more than 600 seconds between other slides in a automatic loop

    How can i play a movie in keynote from more than 600 seconds between other slides in a automatic loop

    The maximum duration available for an automatic presentation in Keynote is 600 seconds.
    The alternatives are to export a QuickTime video, use other presentation applications, a media server player or digital signage application.

  • How can I play .avi movies on my mac?

    How can I play .avi movies on my mac?
    Quicktime pro doesn't do it.
    If there's some kind of patch or something, please give me the url/link!
    Thanks!

    How can I play .avi movies on my mac?With difficulty.
    Quicktime pro doesn't do it.Generally speaking, no -- not without third-party components.
    If there's some kind of patch or something, please give me the url/link!Try Perian (free). It contains a collection of popular PC codecs which may or may not support the specific files you want. If not, you have to determine what particular codec is required, find out if it is available, and then download/install it. (Not all AVI audio/video file formats have been ported for Mac use.) Even then, if it is a proprietary codec and you want to be able to convert to/from that format, you may have to purchase/register the component.

    Hi Brennan,
    Only HDMI is going to support audio & video on the single cable. Which MacBook Air do you have? Here's a great article regarding this - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241. Also keep in mind that only the current generation of MacBook Airs support this. The previous generation, also with MiniDisplay Port would support HDMI but you'd need to run a separate line from the headphone port over AUX for audio.
    The first and second generation models, which have micro-DVI, do not support audio. Regarding the RCA cables, Apple offers adapters that allow you to go to VGA and that would probably be your best bet. I do not believe there's a MiniDisplay Port to RCA solution out there, you'd need to do multiple adapters and that's always a questionable performance solution.

  • How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well?

    How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well, I keep deleting stuff from iTunes to try and free up some space only to find the file still in the library?

    It depends upon what preferences settings you use.  Most people use default settings so when you delete an item it asks you if you want to get rid of the file too.
    If iTunes absolutely refuses to get rid of the file (I have never heard of this by the way) you can always go to the media folder or wherever the file is located and drag it to the trash yourself.

  • How do I retrieve deleted movies not appearing as purchased?

    How do I retrieve deleted movies not appearing as purchased?

    You are trying to download the apps again in the purchased tab of the App Store and you are using the same Apple ID - correct?
    If the apps show as being installed - but you can't tap on the cloud icon to download them again - Try restarting and/or rebooting the iPad and then see if you can download the apps again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If that still doesn't work then try this.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to download again.
    Also - make sure that you do not have restrictions enable - Settings>General>Restrictions. You could have installing apps turned off.

    The pdf is loading as html code. If you save it, it will download as :
