How do you preview videos along with pictures

you could do this in preview in leopard buy not lion.  it starts to play but won't continue.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. As already mentioned you'll need to use a 3rd party slideshow application or iMovie.
However, you can create a slideshow in iDVD with stills and a video clip as iDVD 7 (08) now permits both stills and movie clips to be placed in a slideshow. This screenshot shows multiple video clips in an iDVD slideshow but you can also have stills and video clips.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How do you burn videos taken with myIphone and stored on my computer to a DVD disc.  I purchased and tried using RealPlayer Plus 16 but got error message saying "unsopported media type"?  I alos tried using Real Players file converter with no success!

    How do you burn videos taken with my Iphone 4S and stored on my computer to a DVD disc.  I purchased and tried using RealPlayer Plus 16 but got error message saying "unsopported media type"?  I also tried using Real Players file converter with no success!  Thanks in advance for any help you can give!

    Probably the OP is no longer paying attention to this unless the OP is subscribed to this discussion.  While not really an iPhone question I guess using an iPhone to produce the movie which then needs taking to the next step makes this as good a starting place as any unless you happen to know enough about what to do to determine in which forum to post.  A suggestion in that direction would help.
    Anyway, Apple is backing off from supporting optical media.  It also depends upon what you mean by "DVD".  A DVD is just an optical disc which can support different file formats, but many people think it means a movie disc you can put in your TV.  Producing a movie disc requires special iDVD authoring software Apple used to sell but stopped several years ago.  I don't know if the old versions work under newer systems.  There's also the free Burn application which authors DVDs but takes a bit of learning and has nowhere near the features of iDVD.
    If the OP means simply burning the transferred movie files to a DVD for archiving in computer format you don't need special software for that; its built into the operating system File > New Burn folder etc.

  • How do you do video out with mb pro?

    It seems there is no way to connect via hard wire the MB Pro 13" to a TV.  Is that right?  If so, is there a work-around?  I have an ATV but streaming through it even at short range is very erratic and unwatchable.
    Thanks.

    You could purchase an Apple TV and wirelessly connect to your TV via AirPlay.
    I don't think that anything but the Apple TV supports AirPlay - not the new Amazon TV, etc.
    Good luck,

  • HT1349 how do you import video to Aperture from a dvd with a unix executable file

    how do you import video to Aperture or imovie from a dvd with a unix executable file?

    Allan's suggestion of using the iDisk will work but will fill up the iDisk unless you do housecleaning occasionally. Another, non Apple way would be to upload them to an account on Twango.com. It sort of like MyTube but for photos and videos and is more personal in nature. It's free (monthly uploads are limited to 250MB/mo) and others can easily pop into your public channel (individual sections of a person's account are called channels) and download whatever size you want. You can select the size of your uploads from full sized to 1600, 1024 or 640 pixels max. What I like about the site is that you can email photos to your account. Makes it rather easy. You can also add slideshows and a ticker tape type of display from Twango to web pages (they create the code to use for the channel you select) like this. It's not an Apple thing but I've found it's quick. May or may not be what you're looking for.
    Do you Twango?

  • How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio from garageband be the sound when recording and not just your normal voice but garage band effects for youtube?

    Hi Life93,
    What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)

  • How can I preview video files in quicktime

    How can I preview video files in quicktime by click on the space bar like i use to with leopard? 
    I like to pull up all of my video files and arrowing down and hitting the space bar and previewing them. 
    I cannot do that with all of my video files just some of the video files are able to be previewed.
    Some of the files show a thumb of the video and some just show the quicktime logo are other logos
    I am running the latest Lion
    Thanks.

    You need to investigate BLOB = Binary Large Objects.
    Start with Google where you will find plenty of info to start with.

    How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?

    here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
    I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
    You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.

    Authorize your new computer's iTunes first - Store>Authorize this computer.
    1) Without connecting your iPad to your laptop, start iTunes. Click on Edit. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
    2) Now connect your iPad to your laptop and start iTunes.
    3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
    4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
    5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
    6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
    If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on Edit / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.

  • How do you preview using a spool request number

    How do you preview using a spool request number?
    I have an application in which I have accumulated the results from several smartforms into one spool request. I have the spool request number, and am printing it using function RSPO_RPRINT_SPOOLREQ.
    I need to be able to preview the contents of the spool request before printing. I can not preview when generating the smartforms, as that involves several previews, and I need to preview once only per spool request.

  • How do you preview a composition fit the intended viewport?

    Hi from 20 degrees C York UK :-)
    Ok I just finished a composition for an iphone, when watched on After effects it looks a good size but when I saw it on the intended iPhone it was too small. So my question is please...
    "How can you preview a movie clip / composition so it has the same scale as the intended output. Put another way, If my video clip is for YouTube how can I preview to see if my movie clip looks the right size before export."
    Thanks in advance,
    David

    Of course it was smaller but what do you mean by "too small?" Do you mean, say, the text you created at full high def is illegible on the iPhone? There are minimum pixel dimensions and specifications for discernible detail, try googling "minimum visual content for iPhone" or something like that. Try searching the Apple site for developer specifications and suggestions for minimum pixel dimensions for accurately discerning detail.
    The iPhone 5s screen has only 1136 x 640 discreet pixels. My anecdotal experience suggests minimum legible text is about 20 pixels when viewed at arm's length, a meter or more. Text on websites can be much smaller because it scales as vectors. Video presents fixed pixels; they don't scale, they just get bigger and blockier.
