How to make Quicktime 10.2 start to play automatically

In Finder, I click on a movie and it open Quicktime but it never play until I click play button. How to make it automatically play?

Hi William,
Quicktime 10 is a component of Mountain Lion.
You should see it in the Applications folder.
If not, do a search for Quicktime in Spotlight.
If you can't find it, you may need to reinstall Mountain Lion.
OS X Mountain Lion: Erase and reinstall OS X
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

How to make QuickTime "Always on Top"

Was browsing the Discussions trying to figure out how to make QuickTime 7.1.3 "Always on Top" on Windows XP, but judging by the unresolved threads I gather Apple forgot to include that option.
Anyway, I've just discovered a free download that allows you to get around this problem: HELDUP. It creates a tray icon that you can click and drag onto QT (or any open program) to make it topmost/always on top.

Thank you!!
I can't believe that Apple would "forget" a stay on top of windows feature.
It has been driving me mad.
...Apple, specifically, QT developers, are you listening?

Help!!! How to make quicktime plugin do not display on top of the web page?

Any one knows how to make quicktime plugin do not display on top of the web page??? I've tried to change the zIndex property using javascript, but it doesn't work.
Because we have some widgets which are required to be moved to anywhere on the page, we use iframe to implement that, so it can display on top of quicktime plugin, but the plugin flickers sometimes when we do some operation on the widget which is on top of it.
Anyone can helps me? Thanks in advance!!!

Check the docs. Trent is usually very thorough in his
instructions.
Hint: I haven't studied it but it probably involves modifying
one of DW's
built-in Behaviors.

How to make every account in the system login automatically?

How to make every account in the system login automatically when Mac OS X startup?
Thanks!

I can see one way to do it. You'll need to install a script in each user account, and have it set as a login item for each user. Let's imagine you have three user accounts. Each user in Mac OS X has a UID number. Normally your first user has the UID of 501, the second one will be 502 and so on...
You can determine the UID by running the following AppleScript while logged in on each user:
do shell script ("ID")
This'll return a long block of text, but right at the start you'll see the UID number. Let's assume your three users have the UIDs 501, 502 and 503. We begin with 501.
Create the following script and save it as an application while logged in as 501. Note that the password you're entering is the password for UID 502. Also note that the forum system is creating line breaks where there shouldn't be any. The long "do shell script" line should be one line.
delay 5 --This delay allows time for login to complete, but it may not be necessary.
try
do shell script "/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu\\ Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -switchToUserID 502"
delay 5 --This delay could be shorter or longer, depending on how fast your machine is.
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "password for 502" --the password for UID 502
keystroke return
delay 1
end tell
on error
display dialog "Unable to switch user."
end try
Open System Preferences, go to Accounts, click "login items" and drag your script (saved as an application) to the login items window.
You basically repeat this process for each user account, modifying the script so it switches to the next user.
This isn't ideal, because your passwords will be stored in the scripts, and each user could open the scripts and learn the passwords of the other users on that machine.
I picked some of this up from a discussion over at the Macworld forums:

How to make the new Array start at the same position as the previous and randomise only the newObjec

So i am currently trying to make 5 boxes/ships (3Blue and 2 Green)appear in a random position(1st-Gree,2nd- Blue,3rd-blue,4th-Green,5th-Green or in some other random way) i the upper corner of the stage.Make them move down.Then make a new 5 boxes and position them in the same starting position as the previous 5 and make only them get randomised (not with the previous 5,what it is doing at the moment).And do this while they are moving down. so the code so far i have is this :
import flash.events.Event;
var shipCount:Number;
var shipCount2:Number;
var shipArray:Array = new Array();
var shipArrayPosition:Array = new Array();
var counter:int = 0
var positionsX:Array = ["50","100","150","200","250",]
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, everyFrame)
function everyFrame(ev:Event):void{
          counter++
          if(counter % 70 == 0){
                         doShips()
          positionShips()
          trace(shipArray.length )
function doShips() {
          shipCount = 3;
          shipCount2 = 2;
          var gap = 10;
          for (var i:int = 0; i < shipCount; i++) {
                    var s = new Ship;
                    shipArray.push(s);
                    //s.x = s.width/2 + (s.width* i) + gap*i
                    //addChild(s)
                    //shipArrayPosition.push(s);
          for (var j:int = 0; j < shipCount2; j++) {
                    s = new Ship2;
                    shipArray.push(s);
          var array:Array=new Array();
          while (shipArray.length>0) {
                    var index:uint = Math.floor(Math.random() * shipArray.length);
                    array.push(shipArray[index]);
                    shipArray.splice(index,1);
          shipArray = array;
          //shipsArray has been randomized
          for (var k:int = shipArray.length - 1; k >= 0; k--) {
                    shipArray[k].x = positionsX[k]
                    addChild(shipArray[k])
function positionShips() {
          for (var i:int = shipArray.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
                    shipArray[i].moveDown() //what the code in the Ship and Ship2 class does -> only: this.y += 3
and how to make them stay at one position.Not to move in any X position when the new 5 are added

This one is more efficient yet because it removes ships that moved out of view:
import flash.display.MovieClip;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.events.Event;
var numShips:int = 5;
var shipCount:int = 3;
var shipArray:Vector.<Sprite> = new Vector.<Sprite>();
var counter:int = 0
var positionsX:Array = [];
init();
function init():void
          // populate positions
          for (var i:int = numShips - 1; i >= 0; i--)
                    positionsX.push(50 * i);
          addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, everyFrame);
function everyFrame(e:Event):void
          counter++
          if (counter % 70 == 0)
                    doShips();
          positionShips();
          trace(shipArray.length);
function doShips():void
          var gap = 10;
          var s:MovieClip;
          var shipsLine:Sprite = new Sprite();
          shipsLine.cacheAsBitmap = true;
          addChild(shipsLine);
          shipArray.push(shipsLine);
          shuffle(positionsX);
          for (var i:int = numShips - 1; i >= 0; i--)
                    s = i < shipCount ? new Ship() : new Ship2();
                    s.x = positionsX[i] + gap;
                    shipsLine.addChild(s);
          shipsLine.y = -shipsLine.height;
function shuffle(a:Array):void
          for (var i:int = a.length - 1; i >= 0; i--)
                    var r:int = Math.floor(Math.random() * (i + 1));
                    var t:Object = a[r];
                    a[r] = a[i];
                    a[i] = t;
function positionShips():void
          for each (var shipLine:Sprite in shipArray)
                    shipLine.y += 3;
                    // remove line that moved out of stage
                    if (shipLine.y > stage.stageHeight + shipLine.height)
                              removeChild(shipLine);
                              shipArray.splice(shipArray.indexOf(shipLine), 1);

How to make build in effects start automatically on slide transitions?

I believe this should be a simple answer, but it is escaping me, and 30 mins of googling for the answer hasn't led to a solution to this problem: *How do I make the first build in effect start automatically on transition to each new slide?*
I need this for a very simple presentation I'm putting together: Each slide has two lines of text; one at the top of the slide (like a question), then another on the bottom (the answer).
As I advance to each new slide, I want the question's build in effect (Scale Big, By Letter, Forward) to happen automatically. On the next click, the answer text will appear (also Scale Big, By Letter, Forward).
On the next click, it should advance to the next slide and the next question should appear with the build-in effects. And so on...
Should be simple, but it's alluding me. Thanks in advance for the help!
Cheers, Patrick

How do I make the first build in effect start automatically on transition to each new slide?
You can read about this feature in Keynote in the Keynote help menu: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Keynote/5.0/en/kyntc693f26f.html
Go to the slide in question.
Go to the Build Inspector.
Click on Build In.
Click on "More Options" at the bottom.
Click on your first build.
Change "Start Build" to "Automatically after transition".
Hope that helps.

Quicktime won't start or play .mov files

I have an interesting problem - Quicktime 7.4.1.14 shows that it's installed correctly via the Apple Quicktime troubleshooter, and it will play Quicktime movies inside my browser (Firefox), but when I click on the quicktime shortcut on the desktop or click on a .mov file on my PC, the program won't open - the system reacts and there's briefly an hourglass, but then nothing happens. There's nothing in the Windows XP event logs that indicates a problem.
Is there some way for me to get a log of what Quicktime is trying to do so I can at least try to fix the problem? I have removed my Temp directory and uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime and iTunes several times, but that did not help. I do have Windows Media Player 11 and Nero 8 Ultimate installed, in case that provides any additional helpful information.
Thanks for any help ...

I have found the answer, and I hope it might be helpful to others. The problem was with a skinning program called WindowBlinds - if I exclude Quicktimeplayer.exe from being skinned, the program works just fine. Although the problem was not a security rights or "Deny" problem, using Runas to access another administrative login to run Quicktime did work around the problem; in fact, even if did a Runas using the same login where Quicktime wasn't working, that solved the problem - the Runas interface must somehow avoid the skinning problem or whatever specific environment or problem WindowBlinds is causing.
WindowBlinds is also causing some other programs, notably a few setup.exe files, to not execute in the same way - they try to start, and then abort with no error message - they just quit. When I unloaded WindowBlinds, they also started working again. A very strange and unintuitive problem and solution.

In ibooks author how to make an existing page start a new section

I have imported a Pages document into ibook authors (version 2.1.1 in OS 10.9.1) using the Classic Text Template. The original Pages document was basically a book, with title and table of contents and forward and several sections. Now everything is one huge unit. During the import I can choose a layout, but only a chapter or a section. Then all of the document is regarded as having that layout -- every page is regarded as having the section layout, for example, though only the first page has the smaller text area and the large text as a header. I can see all the layout possibilities in the Layouts sidebar, and they include section and forward and 1 column. When I hover the cursor over a particular page the book sidebar I see the little triangle that has been mentioned, and it offers options for changing layout, but it does not allow me to make that page a new section or a forward. I can only make the page 2 column or put a sidebar on it. I cannot see how I can import the book and be able to create chapters and sections with ibooks author. I can insert a new section layout, or a new page, but I do not see how to to change a page, after it is imported and is considered to be the text of a chapter or section, into the start of a new chapter or section. I do not find anything in the inspector or on the menubar or in the help center that makes this change. The "add a chapter title" does not change the layout to make the text box smaller, as it should for a layout. Is it actually possible to convert a Pages book into an ibook authors book, or must I create the blank chapters and sections in ibook authors and then cut and paste each section from Pages?

The advice given for iBA, is to preplan your book. Modify an exsiting template as your layout suits you, to present a quality book to your readers.
iBooks Author is really more "app" than a book maker like inDesign or even Pages, - and users should really get to know how to use it before starting out on a serious project.
The insert options are clear - you can insert a Chapter from MS Word or Pages in iBA a "chapter" is a distinct "standalone" part of a book which can include sections and pages as required. Sections can be moved up or down within their chapter or can be copied from one chapter to another. The pages in any chapter are static and the only way to change content location is copy and paste.
From your post, its seems you decided to create you book using Pages and in one chapter expecting iBA to reformat it.
I would suggest a solution is to count your chapters and add that number into an iBA new book, then copy your Pages chapters. I would guess that the whole process would take less than 30 minutes.
Apple recieves feedback and suggestions for improvements, however the last update made very few changes to the application and none of those seen in many posts - such as being able to move pages. This indicates that Apple at least, are satisfied that the version is functional enough for how Apple see books being made for its store. 12 months ago this forum was taking hundreds of posts per day asking advice, its now a trickle- which I take to be in indicator that as a group, iBA users have taught themselves how to use the application and its many options and third party add on's. iBA is more suited to the interactive side of publications as Apple intended, creating a mainly text only "novel" seems to be considered by Apple as the easy part!

How to make a Dynamic Link starting in After Effects to Premier (not other way around)

I have seen a ton of tutorials how to Dynamic Link from Premier to After Effects. (but not the other way around. )
I need instructions/video how to link starting in After Effect to Premier.
For example if I make a title in After Effects and then want to dynamic Link it into Premier how is this done?
Thanks!!

I've looked at this too. When I first started using DL, I thought that it was basically a two way street between applications. But that analogy doesn't work very well. DL is PPro-centric. Like PPro is the hub, DL the spokes, and the other Abobe applications are on the rim. And this makes a fair amount of sense. The central feature of an editing suite is the editor, and that would be PPro.
Another way to look at it is that you can push from PPro to AE, and PPro can pull from AE, but AE can not push to PPro. So the direct answer to "I need instructions/video how to link starting in After Effect to Premier" is, you can't. What you can do is make your title composition in AE, import that AE project into PPro, and use the composition as you would any other asset in PPro. Then when you change your title in AE, you'll see the change in PPro almost immediately without you having to do anything.
When I'm making motion lower thirds, for example, I now make them in AE. I let the AE project reside in the directory with the PPro project that I made the lower thirds for. Then when I want the lower thirds in PPro, I just import the AE lower thirds into the PPro project. There's a few ways to do this. One is to use the Media Browser. The MB will open up the AE project for you and let you select which composition you want to import. Another way is to File...Adobe Dynamic Link...Import AE composition which does more or less the same thing. There may be other ways as well, IDK.

How to make quicktime movie export interactive.

I've keynote 09 presentation that has images and videos inserted into it. I need to share this people across on internet. I've created quicktime .mov file for this. My file size comes roughly around 500MB. Everything is fine, only problem I see is when I play quicktime file on my mac mini it is interactive, so I click on mouse and it moves to next text or next slide. Whereas same file when I run on my Windows 7 machine it just keeps flying thru it without any interaction from user. Same thing happesn when I try to play quicktime file uploaded on vimeo or smugmug.com, file just flies thru all slides without any user interaction.
Is there a way where I can make my slideshow to be interactive ?
thanks
-mj

The problem probably is because you are opening the QT movie with Windows Media Player
Solution
Download Quicktime player to your windows 7 PC
Then right click the QT movie you made from keynote and select 'open with'
Then select quicktime (the QT player downloaded)
Hope that helps

How to make quicktime vido visible by a PC under Windows

HI,
I made an internet page with a video with quicktime, but every PC's under Windows can't read it! This is the page:
http://web.mac.com/jeantoinenorbert/iWeb/Jean-Antoine%20Norbert/Exposition%20Gal erie%20Claire%20de%20Villaret.html
Is the solution on http://www.freevideocoding.com/ as said on http://alyeska.altervista.org/en/iWeb_Movies.html? Because I dont understand. The video I made is on my cumputer and isn't on idisk.So what to do? Someone tald me it could be a question of CODEC?
Anyway Thank You Cédric for your website et salutation de Lausanne!

Hi Jeannot,
sorry I didn't notice that you are in iWeb '06... In iWeb '08 you just would have to add an html snippet and put the code in it. To add code in iWeb '06 you could use iWeb More http://iwebmore.ctrl-j.eu/Manual.html
However I think there is no need to add code. I think the problem is that they don't have Quicktime installed which could be solved by having them installing quicktime thus providing a link to the download page http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/ did you ask them if they have quicktime installed? Without having Quicktime they will not be able to play it...
Unfortunately I don't have access to a PC...
But actually QuickTimeKirk would be much better than me on that... I don't even see how a movie could play being on your computer and not on iDisk... Did you just drag&drop it? Actually it should be on the iDisk too...
I live in Basel city, about 20 minutes by bus to the Fondation Beyeler which is a bit outside of town and which I really love. Also it's a great building made for the art and in a beautiful landscape... In a wonderful city too... (you might also visit the Kunstmuseum, which is even bigger than the Beyeler but missing the right 'entourage')
Salutations,
Cédric

How to make the listener auto start with OS?

Using: 10gR2 (10.2.0.3) RAC +ASM 64bit & 11g Gateway (11.1.0.7) 64bit
2 Node Cluster
Platform: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 (x86_64) (kernel: 2.6.5-7.276-smp)
I have a two node cluster that uses a 10gR2 DB home. I have setup a 11g Gateway home to allow the 10gR2 Home to connect to an AS/400 system.
The Heterogeneous connection works perfectly.
The problem is that when I reboot the nodes the 11g Gateway listener doesn't startup with the OS.
Question: How can I setup my OS to have the listener startup at system boot?
Currently, I have to manually set ORACLE_SID, change to 11g Gateway home and start the listener.
Thanks,
(BLL)

My initial research (google) the subject of "oracle 10g adding listener clusterware" finds plenty of hits for adding instances to the cluster.
I was less successful with finding information on adding a listener as a node app.
Any suggestions on a reference article?
The way to add applications is documented in the Admin Guide.
Would not the netca (run under 11g) achieve the same?

How to make quicktime h.264 movies repeat indefinitely on iPod third gen

I created some QT H.264 movies for my wife's 3rd generation iPod so that we could play them in our nursery. But they only play once -- I would like them to loop continuously on the iPod. The 3rd gen iPod has a repeat setting, but that only seems to apply to music. I thought that there was a QuickTime Pro export setting for "loop continuously," but I can't seem to find it.
Can anyone help me out here?

In iTunes add the movie to a playlist or create a playlist with the movie.
Sync the iPod.
Set the iPod to *repeat all*
In the video section select the video in the videoplaylist and play it. It repeats.
