HT204382 I want to convert an .avi movie to a format where I can cut a DVD. I have OS X lion operating system

I want to convert an .ave movie to be able to create a dvd. What software do I need? Thanks

Thanks Kappy, this helped. I was able to convert the .avi file to mp4 making it possible to view the movie. However, I was unable to burn it. I downloaded a program called express burn from prism and was able to burn the .avi file to a dvd .vob. format.
If you are using a 4gb dvd you may have to change the setting to medium quality depending on the movie size. Hope this helps.

AVI Movies to MPEG4 Format

Hello,
I have a few .avi movies I would like to convert to watch on my iPod. MPEG Streamclip will not let choose .avi movies to convert and I keep getting "convertion failed" errors using ffmpegx. I need some help and suggestions. Thanks.

Thanks guys,
I figured it out. QuickTime Pro 7 can convert .avi movies to mpeg4 format. Open the .avi in QuickTime Pro, click on File then click Save as and "Save as a self-contained movie" then click save. QuickTime will convert the file to a .mov format. Open the .mov in QuickTime, click on File than click Export and select Movie to iPod (320x240) than click save. When export is done you will have an mpeg4 file. Open iTunes then drag that file to the Library source list. That's it.

I'm a bit confused. Since my original camera format was 720/60p, and I converted the footage to Pro Res422 in order to edit in Final Cut Pro 7, should I convert back to a higher quality format before sending the file to DVD Studio Pro?

I'm a bit confused. Since my original camera format was 720/60p, and I converted the footage to Pro Res422 in order to edit in Final Cut Pro 7, should I convert back to a higher quality format before sending the file to DVD Studio Pro? If so, which Compressor codec is best to use in order to preserve the original 720/60p? How do I maintain the highest quality?

No...ProRes is a high quality format. Finishing format. Many TV networks take that as a final deliverable.
BUT...DVDs aren't high definition...they are SD. You cannot make a 720p60 DVD with DVD Studio Pro. Any DVD you make will be SD...720x480. The only HD DVD format out there is BluRay, and for that you need a BluRay burner.
As for making a high quality DVD...using the BEST QUALITY settings in Compressor will work:
#42 - Quick and dirty way to author a DVD
Shane's Stock Answer #42 - David Roth Weiss' Secret Quick and Dirty Way to Author a DVD:
The absolute simplest way to make a DVD using FCP and DVDSP is as follows:
1. Export a QT movie, either a reference file or self contained using current settings.
2. Open DVDSP, select the "graphical" tab and you will see two little monitors, one blue, one green.
3. Select the left blue one and hit delete.
4. Now, select the green one, right click on it and select the top option "first play".
5. Now drag your QT from the browser and drop it on top of the green monitor.
6. Now, for a DVD from an HD source, look to the right side and select the "general tab" in the track editor, and see the Display Mode, and select "16:9 pan-scan."
7. Hit the little black and yellow burn icon at the top of the page and put a a DVD in when prompted. DVDSP will encode and burn your new DVD.
THATS ALL!!!
NOW...if you want a GOOD LOOKING DVD, instead of taking your REF movie into DVD SP, instead take it into Compressor and choose the BEST QUALITY ENCODE (2 pass VBR) that matches your show timing. Then take THAT result into DVD SP and follow the rest of the steps. Except you can choose "16:9 LETTERBOX" instead of PAN & SCAN if you want to see the entire image.

I want to get an app for my macbook pro where I can buy sheet music.

I want to get an app for my macbook pro where I can purchase sheet music such as Demi Lovato, Beyonce etc.

Check the App Store. If not there, do a Google search.

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my email. I can't seem to purchase this on-line

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.

I'm new to iPad mini and uv I'm trying to get a movie I purchased to where I can watch it offline but when I click the option to download and watch offline it keeps giving me and error with download try again later I have a good wifi connection ??

You have a "good WiFi connection". What does that mean exactly? Can you send and receive email and are other internet related activities working OK for you? Have you tried restarting or rebooting your iPad? Sometimes that helps. If nothing else, it's a good place to start.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

How do I convert several AVI movies to one AVI??

I took several movies with my digital camera and I'd like to convert them to one AVI. Nothing special needs to be done, I just want to paste them into one movie for computer viewing. I have QuickTime Pro, iLife, and several other programs. Not sure which one would work.
Thanks,
Tom

If the files play without issue in QuickTime you can copy/paste them together using Pro.
If you wish to share these files you may want to export the final file using a QuickTime audio and video codecs.

How can I convert an .AVI movie file to get it into i-movie for editing?

I have downloaded the VLC media player which will open and play the .AVI files from a video camera (RCA Small wonder high def digital camcorder EZ229HD). Now I need to be able to convert these movies (which will only open and play after dragging them to the desktop) to import into i-movie so they can be edited. Anyone know how to do this? The phone support at MAC help said they really can't do any third party stuff so I do not know what to download, purchase, or even if this is possible. Can't imagine a format that won't work with a MAC! Please help. Thank you! Need these for a project.

Use Handbrake.
You can download it for free from this site:

Convert existing QuickTime movies to iPod format

Is there a way to convert an existing QuickTime movie (480 x 360) into an iPod compatible format (320 X 240)? Can I use QuickTime Pro to do this?
Thanks

Is there a way to convert an existing QuickTime movie (480 x 360) into an iPod compatible format (320 X 240)? Can I use QuickTime Pro to do this?
Yes and yes. However, be advised that there are potential problems in different work flows.
If this is a 4:3 aspect ratio 480 x 360 H.264/AAC source file, then simply use the QT Pro "Show Movie Properties" option to set the video display to 320 x 240 (or set width to 320 while "Preserve Aspect Ratio" option is set) and then export the file using the "Movie to iPod" option. This will create an H.264/AAC stereo 320 x 240 file with an average combined data rate in the 800-850 kbps range. On the other hand, if the source file is an MPEG-4/AAC with an aspect ratio other than 4:3, then you must manually set the width to 320 and the height to the correct aspect ratio with the "Preserve Aspect Ratio" option turned off. (Seems that the new LC profile does not take the 480 iPod MPEG-4 "special case" display capability into account during conversions.)
If the LC profile is not required, simply use the QT Pro "Movie to MPEG-4" export option and set the target display as required for rendering at the correct aspect ratio for the iPod in the baseline profile. This work flow is preferred where limited data rates, mono audio, or other custom settings are desired.

I have imported a PDF form (created in adobe acrobat XI pro) into FormsCentral. I now want to convert this document into a web form so I can embed it into my website. HOW DO I DO THIS?

I took a word document I had created and added fields to it in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. I then imported the PDF in Forms Central and now I am stuck. All I am able to do with it in FormsCentral is add a submit button. It will not allow me to edit the document in FormsCentral. What I ultimately need to do is get this converted to a web form so that I can embed it into our company website. Additionally, once it's converted, I need to add an option for the user to attach their resume with the file before submitting. I have looked all over the web and I cannot find an answer as to whether or not I can convert PDFs to web forms in FormsCentral. This will ultimately determine whether or not the company decides to purchase these programs after the trial version has ended in a few days.

I tried that first, but FormsCentral does not have the capability to create tables. The form I need to create is more advanced than what FormsCentral allows. Do you know if there is a way to create or somehow import a table when creating a web based form on FormsCentral?

HT6196 When I try to "share" my movie project via "File" the process "fails after a short while. I do not know why this is happening. I want to send my movie file to IDVD so I can burn a DVD disc of my project.

When I try to "share" my IMovie project via "File", the process "fails", after a short time. I am following the instuctions; Click share>file>next > except it hasn't download to save. The blue circle never completes its circle before I says it failed. What am I doing wrong?

Are you trying to transfer it from the iPad to your desktop? Have you tried AirDrop?

Movie made in iMovie HD 6 can't burn DVD as is

I have edited and titled and added stills with Ken Burns effect and the movie previews exactly as I want my DVD to play. I exported to iDVD and it asks me to start all over with chapters and titles and all that. I just want to burn my DVD from exactly what I put together on iMovie HD 6. Please help

How to create a DVD without menu (there are several options):
1. Easy: Drop your iMovie in the autoplay box in iDVD's Map View, then set your autoplay item (your movie) to loop continously. Disadvantage: The DVD plays until you hit stop on the remote
2. Still easy: If you don't want your (autoplay) movie to loop, you can create a black theme by replacing the background of a static theme with a black background and no content in the dropzone (text needs to be black as well). Disadvantage: The menu is still there and will play after the movie. You don't see it, but your disc keeps spinning in the player.
3. Still quite easy but takes more time: Export the iMovie to DV tape, and then re-import using One-Step DVD.
Disadvantage: One-Step DVD creation has been known to be not 100% reliable.
3. (My preferred method) Easy enough but needs 3rd party software: Toast lets you burn your iMovie to DVD without menu - just drag the iMovie project to the Toast Window and click burn. Disadvantage: you'll need to spend some extra $$ for the software. In Toast, you just drop the iMovie project on the Window and click Burn.
4. The "hard way": Postproduction with myDVDedit (freeware)
Tools necessary: myDVDedit ( http://www.mydvdedit.com )
• create a disc image of your iDVD project, then double-click to mount it.
• Extract the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders to a location of your choice. select the VIDEO_TS folder and hit Cmd + I to open the Inspector window
• Set permissions to "read & write" and include all enclosed items; Ignore the warning.
• Open the VIDEO_TS folder with myDVDedit. You'll find all items enclosed in your DVD in the left hand panel.
• Select the menu (usually named VTS Menu) and delete it
• Choose from the menu File > Test with DVD Player to see if your DVD behaves as planned.If it works save and close myDVDedit.
• Before burning the folders to Video DVD, set permissions back to "read only", then create a disc image burnable with Disc Utility from a VIDEO_TS folder using Laine D. Lee's DVD Imager:

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button but can't. Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. It is the 2014 release of adobe illustrator. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button.
I start a new document. Then I place my scanned pencil/colored pencil drawing, in to the document. I have tried scanning and then placing it as a jpeg, bitmap, and tiff file. I have tried scanning and then placing it, in color and in black and white. The scan mode I use is flatbed. Adobe illustrator allows me to select the default button and one of eleven preset buttons (e.g high fidelity photo), but it does not allow me to click the custom trace button. The custom trace button is grey while all the other buttons are white.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

It seems pointless to adjust it afterwards because it is then only a couple a pencil lines rather then a full drawing. And how do I adjust it afterwards? Would I do this using the different buttons under the window button?
