How to save an iMovie as mpeg file

Very new to Mac and iMovie. I need to make a movie for work, but need to save it as an mpeg file so that our communications department can take it and embed it into a Powerpoint presentation.
Is there an easy way to save as mpeg?

Make your movie project, open it, then go to the Share menu and choose "export using Quick time" and you can export it (direct it to your desktop to fond easy) as as .mov file which then can be put right into Powerpoint. very easy to do. the movie exporting into a .mov file can take a long time if a long movie

  • How to save Android contacts as Excel file on Mac computer?

    I want to manage and edit my contacts on my cell phone, my friend suggested me save them as Excel format! So now i am trying this way, but i can't find the right method to do this! Do you know how to save Android contacts as Excel file on Mac computer?

    If you want to save Android Phone contacts to Excel format, you can have a try the following method:
    Step 1. Connect Your Android Phone to Computer
    After downloading and installing the Coolmuster Android Assistant software on your computer, launch it and you will get the program interface prompts you to connect your phone to the computer. Just use a USB cable to connect your phone to the computer and the program will detect the connected phone automatically. If it is the first time to run this software, you may encounter the following picture and be required to enable USB debugging on your phone at first. If your device can be detected by the program, you can directly skip to the next step.
    Step 2: Go to the Contacts windows
    All your phone data are categorized on the top menu. To transfer Android phone's contacts, you can go to click the "Contacts" icon to enter the Contacts window. Navigate to the left panel and click on the "All Contacts" option, then, all the contacts in your phone will show in list on the right window. Mark the contacts you want to backup on your computer and click the button of "Backup".
    Step 3. Start to export contacts to computer at once
    Once you click on the "Backup" button, there will be a "Path" dialog appears, asking you to choose an output location where you want to save the exported contacts. Specify an output folder and then click the "Ok" button. Then, all your phone contacts will be exported to the output location immediately, with all the email address, company's name, home address, and more contacts info perfectly kept in the output CSV or XLS file.

  • How to save my emails and adressbook files from an old ibook?

    How to save my emails and adressbook files from an old ibook (bought around 2002) ?
    The screen from the old ibook doesn´t work anymore (logicboard problem I guess).
    I saved everything else with starting it in target modus. That worked fine.
    I want to delete the files after that as well, because I wanna give away the old ibook and don´t want anyone to read my emails!
    Little helpers I have:
    A running MacBook
    External Screen (and cables to connect)
    Fire Wire Cable

    Don't know how helpful this will be but I often copy mail from one computer to another, I drag the mail from the mail window to the other computers drop box, then from the other computer double click it and mail asks me what I want to do with it, of course without a screen you'd need to use back to my mac.
    If you don't have back to my mac running, you could set up a second user account on the newer mac, import everything via target mode as suggested by c above, and then drag the mail to the first user account drop box.

  • How to save video messages to a file on Mac?

    How to save video messages to a file on Mac? Please, help. Thank you.Claire

    Claire, I use a Mac w/ the latest copy of Skype and it IS possible to first play the file and then download it.  Steps are available for it but it involves some technical wizardry that can be above some muggles.   Then I found a post where some some VERY bright person made a small downloaded program for the Mac which once the video message has been played recently, you can run this program and download the file for safe keeping ( ALWAYS BACKUP or store it in the cloud for safety )  Kudos are deserved to user alvarop for this! http://community.skype.com/t5/Mac/Video-Message-Exporter-App/m-p/2351609 It worked for me to download a video message that I recently played back.  Let me know if you need any assistance getting it downloaded you can PM me on here and I'll be happy to help with a screenshare. Best Regards,-Shawn G

    thank you

    Do you really need an Excel file (binary) or a simple CSV?
    If you just need a CSV then search for DUMP_CSV at http://asktom.oracle.com or at this forum
    If you need formatting and/or multiple worksheets then you can use free tools like
    https://xml-spreadsheet.samplecode.oracle.com/ or https://exceldocumenttype.samplecode.oracle.com/

  • How to save infopath form in XML file

    How to save InfoPath form in XML file.
    I want every new record in InfoPath form save in XML file and also retrieve these records from XML like databases

    Hi,
    Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to save InfoPath form in XML file.
    I have done a test in my SharePoint, Do the following steps:
    Create an form library and publish an InfoPath form into it, Then when we create new document into the form library, it is by default that InfoPath form is saved in XML file.

  • How to save/load JTextPane to/from file?

    One of the simplest questions re Swing.
    How to save a JTextField onto a file?
    And, how to read back it onto a newed JTextPane?
    Yes, I have searched, searched and searched on the net, in vain.

    Assuming he's wanting to do the reasonable thing, I'm trying to do it too.
    linuxoid, I suspect he (and I) are looking for a way to save the contents. After all, a control that you can't get the information out of is pretty useless.
    Styled text is often just a BLOB to the rest of the app. It is in my case, and it probably is in his.
    I'm having the same trouble he is.
    I want to make a JTextPane, let the user edit it, then get some reasonably portable representation of it's current contents that I can serialize. A string representation of XML sounds dandy. Incomprehensible binary is acceptable. A representation in some markup language that I can insert in some other document and have it act like I'm inserting text in the editor would make me more than happy.
    Ideally, what I, and probably he, are looking for is something like
    JTextPane myPainIsGreat = new JTextPane();
    ... life goes on...the user writes poetry and turns the words tacky colors...
    String thisICanDealWith = myPainIsGreat.getStyledTextRepresentation();
    knowing better I'd settle for
    myPainIsGreat.writeStyled(someWriter)
    sadly, JTextPane's write just returns unstyled text

  • How to save 4 versions of a file in the application server

    Hi,
       I have to write a program which will extract few data from SAP and write it in a file in the SAP application server. This program will be run once every month.
    I need to save 4 versions of the files, current and 3 prior.  These versions should cycle off the oldest once a new version has been created.
    Could anyone help me how to do this?
    Thank you!
    Regards,
    Sunitha.

    Hi Sunitha,
    The best way is to write a unix script in the unix server to do the job for you. Once The file is written in the server then leave the job from the unix side to get this done.
    This is the best option i think. Writing a script is not a big task. You can call the script from ABAP or from an external daemon in the unix server. We have many such programs in our org.
    Hope this helps
    Cheers

  • How to save the contents of a file(not a text file)

    Hi all, I want to save the contents of a file(,png file, not a text file) as a field in a class. Shall I have it as a string or byte array or something?
    I have tried saving a file in a string but there were some problems with loading the file from a different platform. Following is my code.
            String string;
            try {
                StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(1024);
                char[] characterArray = new char[1024];
                BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
                while(br.read(characterArray) != -1){
                    sb.append(String.valueOf(characterArray));
                br.close();
                string= sb.toString();
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                ex.printStackTrace();
            }and I use the following code to recover the string back to a stream, and save that stream back to a time later.
        ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(map.getBytes());I realized that because this file is not a text file, the string could cause some problems. But anyone could tell me if I should use a byte array or someting? and how?
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Cheers,
    Jing

    You should use a byte array, and the binary streams (InputStream a& OutputStream). Never use Strings and Reader/Writer if you have binary data.

  • Curious: How does "Save for Web" reduce the file size?

    I do know HOW TO USE "Save for web" -- no questions there. I'm wanting to understand better what's going on under the hood.
    When I start with say, an 8x10 JPG at 300 dpi, I understand completely how bringing that down to 72 dpi yields a much smaller file. Simple math.
    What I don't understand is how the "Save for Web" function can reduce that smaller file size so drastically at the same dimensions, still 72dpi, with negligible image loss (at least at the 80% quality). Maybe it's just my amateur eyes, but for everyday casual web pages, I can discern no significant difference between the two 72dpi images. (At lower quality settings, I do see differences.)
    Can anyone explain a bit more of HOW Photoshop does this? Is it simply compression? For example, is it -roughly- analogous to converting an AIF sound file as an MP3?
    Thanks,
    cb

    Thanks, that worked. I figure there was a setting in there somewhere and was even in the right tab, but didnt think to click on that.

  • How do I convert iMovie 9.x files in iMovie 11?

    A while back I upgraded to iMovie 10 and when I opened it it asked me to convert and upgrade my projects.  I chose to do so but it ran into an error after about the 10th project in my list of 15 projects.  So I created a folder called oldimovieprojectfolders and moved all iMovie Project files into it, except the first one I could see that iMovie was able to convert when processing. 
    Sure enough it worked and finished converting my one project and Im able to see it in my iMovie 11 now.
    The problem is that now I need other projects converted.  So when I open iMovie 11 and choose Update Projects and Events, it doesnt find any of the old projects even after I took the one I wish to convert today and moved it from the oldimoviesprojectsfolder to the iMovie Projects folder.
    How can I make iMovie recognize that old project in iMovie Project folder?

    If you look into your iMovie projects and events folder you will find that iMovie version10 (it is version 10, iMovie '11 = imove v.9) has added an empty file named something like "updated to imovie  ....." in order that it doesn't update the same projects twice.
    If you trash this folder in both the projects and events folders, iMovie 10 will be able to update them.  Of course you need to temporarily hide the projects and events which you have already successfully updated.
    You probably have a single project or event which is causing the problem so I would advise updating just one project at a time.  You will get a new library for each in iMovie 10 but you can sort this out afterwards.

  • How to save the current Indesign defaults file?

    Hi, I've tried following the Indesign Classroom in a book but I find it left a lot to be desired for anyone new to this e.g ME!!!!. So can someone please tell me how I can save the current InDesign defaults file on a windows and if you can please do so like you would, for lack of a better word or term, an idiot because I'm fitting that description pretty well right now. Any help will be greatly appreciated and you will forever in my mind be a god, thank you =DDDDD.

    Hi, im not too sure (I thought it was a stock standard thing, sorry) so I'll fust give you the instructions my book has.
    To save the curren InDesign Defaults file, Follow these steps:
    1, Quit Adobe InDesigns CS5.
    2, Locate The Indesigns Defaults file.
         . In Windows, the InDesign Defaults file is located in the Documents and Settings/Users/Username/Library/ Application Data/ Adobe/ InDesign/ Version 7.0/en_US folder.
    3, Drag the Indesign Defaults file to another folder on you hard drive.
    When you launch Adobe Indesign CS5 after moving the InDesigns Defaults file to another folder, a new InDesign Defaults file is automatically created and all prefrences and defaults are reset to their original factory setting.
    Okay that's all of it and as far I can get is to the app data, for some reason my notebook doesnt have it and I've been trying to find other ways of getting to it but im having no luck. I would really like to avoid the Ctrl+ Alt+Shift thing because I'll apparently lose any saved settings that I might want to keep.
    Hopefully that all makes sense, thank you for responding and your time =3.

    Hi, Senthil.
    This Forum is not a general discussion forum.
    You don't believe that the InDesign SDK is a general purpose API. Do you?
    I think you must post issues like this where they belong, in this case in a Microsoft Word Forum.
