How do you convert WMV files to QL/QT files/icons?

I use a mid 2012 Mac Pro; run OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
1. How do I convert a WMV file to a QL/QT X v.10.3 compatible file?  Will it work in Mavericks?
2. How do I create an icon manually, so that a picture of the WMV video file looks like the picture icon of a MPG file?

  • How do you convert WMV files to either .mov or mpeg4?

    Hi,
    I just wanted to know how you convert WMV file to either .mov or mpeg 4. I can't seem to find any software that will do it.
    Thanks

    You can use the Quicktime plugin from Flip4Mac to get QT to understand/read WMV files.

  • How do you convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date

    Hi everyone! does anyone know how to convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date? Handbrake, MPEG Streamclip and Evon all replace the original timecode with the date of modification. This is very frustrating when you are trying to keep the chronology right. I know that if you upload the files to iMovie from one device the chronology isn't a problem, but I'm adding video files from a couple of iPhones and a couple of camcorders. any help much appeciated.

  • How do you convert aiff files to aac and keep them organized in new folders

    I have spent several hours trying to figure out how to convert my thousands of aiff files to aac files.  I want to keept the originals and have the new aac files created and then stored in a file system identical but separate to the one that stores the aiff files.  Will itunes do this or is there another program that will?
    Thanks,
    Jeremy

    You can override iTunes' preferences setting to keep your music organized, but then it is off for everything you do.  If you have this preference set then iTunes keeps your music organized the way it wants to.
    I suppose another way would be to use a third party converter such as Max or XLD to convert the files to AAC separately. I then believe if you drag the files to iTunes while holding down the option key (not 100% sure if that's the key combination) it will not copy them to the iTunes folder but leave them where you have them.  If you have iTunes set to organize your music and do the conversion inside of iTunes it will want to have its way.

  • How do you convert a file from .mov to .avi in quicktime pro

    I'm using a kodak Z50 digital camera that records video files as .mov files. I was told I could convert the files to .avi files using quicktime pro, but I can't figure out how to do it. Anyone know?

    I am assuming you already are able to open the movie
    in QT Player. Use Export in the File menu, choose
    Movie to Avi in the drop-down Export Menu and then
    click on Options to choose one of the pre-loaded avi
    codecs for the compression. You may also want to
    search for and install one of the newer codecs, such
    as 3ivx or divx since the preinstalled codecs are all
    rather old.

    Thanks for the help. It worked, but the quality of the video is poor. Is there anything I can do about this?

  • How do you convert managed files to referenced files?

    I have exported all the files that I mistakenly saved to my aperture library.
    since I've exported them by year and month I can easily incorporate them into my referenced files on various external hard drives.
    but how do I now actually get the managed files in the aperture library out of the aperture library? (I am trying to make the aperture file smaller so that it can more easily stay on my laptop).
    and is there a way to get rid of the managed files without having to reimport all the files and reimport all the metadata …

    As I understand it:
    You had a bunch of original image files and imported them into AP using managed.
    At this point the original files are totally separate from AP, since AP has copies of the originals in its library file (a package). If you relocate, AP will not put the files back where they were, especially since you have moved some files around in the database.
    If you haven't done much editing to the masters, consider creating a new library and a new import. Otherwise, try relocating a small amount of your projects to see how AP sets up the folders on the disk.
    But AP will not automatically write the masters back to where the originals were - the relocate process involves you indicating where the files will go. As I recall, you have to choose a folder structure from several choices and these may not parallel the originals. Plus, as I said above, since you have moved files around the database, you will definitely not get the same layout as the originals.

  • How do you convert Raw files into jpeg.

      I have never shot in Raw before and I have a huge project due tomorrow. I need help Asap. What is the easiest way to convert Raw files into jpeg, can Light Room convert the files. I have tried so many different ways and nothing seems to work.

    It depends on the sofware you have.  ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) hosted by Bridge or by Photoshop can convert ("open") raw files, as can Lightroom.
    However, not all camera models are supported by all versions of the software.  We need to know the make and exact model of the camera that generated the raw files to advice you further.
    We can also assist you with the conversion through ACR hosted by Photoshop.
    Olease note that there are dedicated forums for Lightroom, for Adobe Camera Raw and for Bridge.
    Here's the list of which cameras are supported by each version of ACR.  Note that later versions supporte all camera models supported in previous versions of ACR.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/407/kb407111.html
    Note that the latest version of ACR to run in CS4 is ACR 5.3;
    CS3 runs ACR 4.6;
    CS2 runs ACR 3.7;
    CS runs 2.4.

  • How do you convert psd files to jpg files?

    Raw photos were converted to psd and then to jpg. The jpg files were imported and some got reconverted to psd files again. How can I convert them back to jpg files so that I can put them in a photo book?

    the basic answer is to open them in Photoshop and save as a jpeg to the desktop and import the JPEG into iPhoto

    perhaps a bit more information would allow a better answer
    And remember to never go into the iPhoto library directly and never make any changes to the structure or contents of the iPhoto library

  • How do you convert odm files to mp3 using itunes?

    I am trying to download audio books from my public library and then install them on my  mp3 player. the file format is odm.
    What is the process for doing this and what  software is required?

    ODM files checked out from a library usually are copy-protected and cannot be converted, by iTunes or any other software. If so, they can only be played in a device that can run Overdrive's software. You'll need to consult with your library and possibly with Overdrive to learn if there are any options that would allow the audiobook to be played on a standard MP3 player.
    Regards.

  • How do I convert wmv files to play on iPhone?

    Since Apple and NBC are beefin', and we all know life goes on, I still want to at least make an attempt to keep up with my shows this fall. Amazon offers downloads from NBC in wmv(how convenient, right?) but I know this format won't play on iPhone. What's this Dunder Mifflin nut gonna do now?

    try downloading "Flip4Mac" (plays wmv on quicktime) and then export the clip(s) to your iphone. I have that the quality is not that great though on the phone. good luck

  • How do you convert mov to wav files?

    How do you convert .mov files to .wav files in iMovie 10? I can no longer find the Share/Quicktime/Options tabs.

    * the .mov container can be handled by any PC with a free download of Quicktime for Windows; but many PC users hesitate doing so, because on the Apple website it looks like you instali iTunes too... many PC don't like that...
    * .mp4 can be handled by any actual PC mediaplayer... again: PC users are used to import .wmv (or the very old .avi container/not supported by YouTube)
    * for exporting .wmv on a Mac, you need to buy a licence at www.flip4mac.com
    * mpeg... the MotionPictureExpertGroup published many codecs... mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg4, h261, h264. .... but using iM as exporter, all these mpegs will be "hidden" in the QT container .mov... with QTpro you can strip-off the container, but I recommed the beginner to use one of the above mentioned options......

  • How to converting WMV files?

    How to converting WMV files from PC to iPod playable files? thanks for all your help

    I just found this tip on allexperts.com...
    I'm on a windows box at work, so I cant verify the accuracy.
    I have one at home...name escapes me right now...icon is a blue square with 5 black dots (like on a die). It converts audio formats, video formats, extracts audio from video, and will batch process.
    Maybe someone will recognize the desciption and be able to name it.

    heres one on apples site:

    =======
    Tunes will convert wma to mp3 (or acc) format. Here are the instructions:
    To convert a song's file format:
    Choose iTunes > Preferences, then click the Advanced button at the top of the window and click Importing.
    From the Import Using pop-up menu, choose the encoding format that you want to convert the song to, then click OK to save the settings.
    Select one or more songs in your library, then choose Advanced > Convert Selection to MP3, Convert Selection to AAC, Convert Selection to Apple Lossless, Convert Selection to AIFF, or Convert Selection to WAV. (The menu item changes to show what's selected in your Importing preferences.)
    To convert all the songs in a folder or on a disk, hold down the Option key and choose Advanced > "Convert Selection to," then choose the folder or disk containing the songs you want to convert. All the songs in the folder or on the disk will be converted except songs you purchased from the iTunes Store. (Purchased songs are encoded using a protected AAC format that prevents them from being converted.)

  • How do you convert a jar file into a java file,  ?

    how do you convert a jar file into a java file ?
    I am new to Java ,but have a little experience in C++ and Visual Basic.
    I want to edit and maybe create my own mobile games that are written or converted into jar files.
    At the moment I am using Java NetBeans , and Easy Java( the java pad).
    However the only solution I tried was to open the JAR file in winrar and see that its made up of png picture files,
    midi music files and class files. Unfortunately when I uncompressed the JAR file , there was NO java file to be seen and the JAVA editors Do not show the class file like a Java file. So why is there no extension Java file in the mobile JAR game ?

    I want to edit and maybe create my own mobile games that are written or converted into jar files.Eh?
    Are you saying you want to take existing games and modify them? If the creators allow you to modify their source, then they'll provide you with that source (the .java files). If you're allowed to add things but not modify, you don't need .java files. Just documentation, which, again, the creators should be providing.
    Or are you saying you want to create your own games and distribute them in jar files? If so, there's no need to turn jars into .java.
