Hugh file won't work

Hi: I have a 10gb quicktime movie file that we produced from a Media 100 system. I want to make a quick edit here at home, but iMovie says the file is too big. Is there any solution to this? Thanks in advance.

The largest single clip that iMovie4 will handle is 2.0 gb (about 9 1/2 minutes). It's messy, but you might be able to use QT to chop the big file into about 6 pieces you can then import into iMovie and edit.
You may find it hard to get the end of one piece exactly at the beginning of the next, so will have to allow them to overlap, then edit the ends of the clips.
Depending on just what the "quick edit" you need is, you might be able to do that with QT -- if, say, it's just deleting something.

Importing cr2 raw files won't work on ios 6 when it worked fine on ios5. Anyone have a solution?

I have been importing cr2 raw files to my iPad using ios 5 but importing cr2 raw files won't work on ios 6. Sees files in camera but when import stops it fails with an exclamation mark in red circle. Anyone have a solution?

Don't know if you care anymore or it applies, but I was able to get things working but it took drastic measures.
I had to do a full system reset and update by doing the following:
- Make note of all your settings in your system and apps especially accounts and forget about in app data that's only on your iPad and not in a cloud service because it will be gone after this
- Connect iPad to Mac and startup iTunes
- Hold down Home and Power buttons simultaneously for about 8 sec until the screen turns black
- Release the Power button but continue holding the Home button until there's a popup on your screen which indicates it's in recovery mode
- Follow the instructions to recover your iPad but recover it to factory state, not recover from a backup
- Reinstall all your apps and content
- Reconnect to all your services on your system and apps
I could not restore from a backup since it brought back my bad data too. It also didn't restore my music and no matter what I tried it wouldn't put my music onto my iPad. Had to start clean.
It appears over time that the system gets dirty and there's lots of bad data that can't get resolved. This is especially true if some of your apps have crashed a bunch.

If I already purchased FaceTime for Mac and recently upgraded my HD. How can I retrieve that app again? I found it in my Time Machine back up, but the files won't work. Please help.

Nope. I do the same exact thing. If you have DVD's and blu-rays you can't download a free application called Handbrake. You can set it to Apple TV2 automatic format and they will come out as playable m4v's that can play I'm iTunes. All you have to do is turn on Home Sharing in both iTunes and your Apple RV and you'll be good to go!

I have a Canon D60 camera, my raw files won't work with the raw converter in my Photoshop CS5. Do I need CS6?

A Canon EOS D60? It had support since Camera Raw version 1.0.

Mpeg-2 files won't work in Final Cut Pro

Please help! I was given mpeg-2 files to edit in Final Cut Pro 6, and they don't play in FCP or Quicktime. Is there a way to convert them to a format that will work?
The dimensions are 1440x1080, MPEG-2 Video, MPEG Layer 2 codec, not sure the frame rate.
I do have the original miniDV tapes, but they won't play in my JVC deck - just a black screen. I think the footage was filmed on a Sony camera, and I think I remember hearing Sony cameras film in mpeg-2?

do I just export to Quicktime and use current settings (ProRes)?
Yes. Make it a Self-Contained file.
This will be put on DVD and we're looking for the best quality to send to film fests. I
Use one of the Best Quality, time based DVD presets in Compressor. Import the resulting files into DVD Studio Pro.
It's a short film, so I won't need to compress it.
Yes you do. A DVD uses a MPEG 2 video and ac3 audio track as its basis. Using Compressor as outlined above will produce those files.

MKV file won't work with VLC

Hi, I am trying to play this MKV file. Every MKV file I have ever thrown at VLC has worked so far, but only this one won't. The file does work in Xine and Mplayer, etc. just fine. Here's the output:
Code: Select all
/media/seagate/dvd # vlc refined-avp2.mkv
VLC media player 0.8.6f Janus
[00000329] dts decoder: DTS channels:6 samplerate:48000 bitrate:1536000
[00000333] main audio output error: couldn't find a filter for the first part of the conversion
[00000333] main audio output error: couldn't set an input pipeline
[00000280] main playlist: stopping playback
/media/seagate/dvd #
And it plays video a-ok as normal, but absolutely no sound with any output
What can I do? If I should compile VLC what edits should I do, etc? Thx in advance

Hello,
I'm sorry for the delay in responding to your inquiry.
It is correct that we don't yet support .pages files for PDF conversion. It is our long term goal to support as many file types as possible. For now, you could try converting your file to a supported file type and then converting to PDF using Acrobat.com.
Kind Regards,
Michelle

Used google drive and now the file won't work

I was in florida working on a windows PC in premiere pro cc i saved the file just like any other time and up loaded it to my google drive. When I got back to NY I downloaded said file and it won't open on my Mac i have premiere pro cc on both computers. How can I get this file to work, and is there a better way to send files like that i have a partner who live in FL and we will be sending files frequently. thanks for any help

Take it in to the Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation. Then your friend will be in a position to make an informed decision. We cannot give you any meaningful advice unless we can physically inspect the MBP.
Ciao.

PDF link of type "open a file" won't work from within web-browser

Hi!
I have a pdf-document in which I have created a link of the type "Open a file" ( in this case it is a word document, but the type of file doesn't matter). When I click this link directly in Acrobat (Acrobat 9 Standard) it works just as excpected, that is, the document opens in word, after I've confirmed to Acrobat that it's ok to open.
Opening the pdf itself from within a web-browser (IE8) is no problem. The document is opened by the Acrobat plug-in, inside the web-browser, as expected. The "hot-spot" to the link is also there, but when I click on the link, Acrobat (I think it's Acrobat and not the web-browser) asks me if it's ok to "Connect to file://///C:/testdoc.doc". And when I confirm this nothing happens (of course, since there are way too many slashes added after the "File:" beginning of the string.
When I doublecheck the link in Acrobat Standard with the link tool, it look perfectly allright (under "Actions" I find the heading "Open a file" and under that the text "File: C\testdoc.doc").
Anyone know where the problem lies?
Thanks for any help!

I found mention online that linking to a zipped pdf file will cause the browser to download the PDF to the local user's PC where they can complete and submit the form (the mailto: command button works when the PDF is opened locally rather than within a browser window). If there is a more "elegant" solution, I would be grateful for your advice.

Photoshop for Mac 5.1 Open File won't work

1) Operating System: MAC 10.9 Mavericks
2) Photoshop Version: 5.1
3) Problem:
      * FILE>OPEN selection from the dropdown menu in the upper left Task Bar of the Graphical User Interface will not work.
   - Problem Description:
      * Selecting FILE>OPEN presents an error box with the message "Could not complete your request because of a program error."
4) Trouble Shooting:
   - Fully reinstalled photoshop.
   - Fully updated photoshop.
   - Updated the computers version of Java (Java 7 Update 45).
   - Adjusted the security settings for the operating system.
5) Misc Information
   - I just purchased this Photoshop and registered with it a week ago.

Thanks Curt! I tried what was in the forum you sent, all three options actually, and received the same error from Photoshop for all three. Thanks though. I just wish I could fix this so things can be opened using the FILE>OPEN function. I already know you can navigate to the file and use "OPEN WITH" it just isn't convinient.

Appleworks 5 files won't work with Pages, appearing as UNIX files

I realize Pages will not open Appleworks 5 files. However, for some reason, when I copied my Appleworks 5 files onto a hard drive and put them on my PPC G4 iBook running OS 10.4, the icons for the files are appearing as unix executable files. I had no problem opening 5 files with 6 and did so every time I opened one. I would save them as version 6 (to upgrade the file) as suggested. But, the files that were copied from my old G3 to the G4 using the hard drive to move them, are now unable to open on the G4 using even Appleworks 6.
I had planned to open them in 6, convert them to 6, then open them in Pages.
This is why people hate Microsoft and Apple is doing the same nonsense. It's bad enough to buy a brand new imac that doesn't have a Superdrive. Why put an SD card reader on the ports while leaving off useful things like the drive, or minimally a Firewire 400 or 800 port. That aside, I had no idea their own proprietary software (Pages) would be designed to not work with Appleworks 5. This is why someone can get away with refusing to use Microsoft Office, or should be the reason.
Why are these files showing up as Unix files and cannot be opened even with Appleworks 6???
Any advice?

Unix assumes any file without an extension is an executable file. the Classic (pre OS X) Mac OS did not use extensions/suffixes, but depended on internal Creator and Type codes to identify the application associated with a particular file. Unix (including OS X) does not recognize these codes, and requires an extension.
For AppleWorks, the extension is .cwk.
Add that extension to your AW5 filenames and they should open in AW6.
As for the dropping of the Superdrive, this seems to be just the most recent step in pushing the Mac into the present. The first second was dropping the 3 1/2" floppy drive from the original iMac. Prior to that, the first Mac had a 3 1/2 inch floppy, but not the 5 1/4 inch version used earlier on the Apple ][ series. Have you had need to use a floppy recently?

Phase One P45+ files won't work in 1.1

Does anyone know why my P45+ files aren't supported in Lightroom 1.1? When will they be supported? Many thanks! Eleanor

Oh my gosh Jeff, a couple of months without Lightroom processing with my plus files is like an eternity--really! Is there any workaround in the works, such as an update to the DNG converter that will make these plus files readable by Lightroom 1.1? Thanks again! Eleanor

Executable file won't work in terminal when I'm in it's folder

I don't get it, I thought I could just go to a folder then I can execute an excutable file in that folder by simply typing it. For some reason terminal wants me to put in the entire path of the file to execute it even if I'm in the folder. Clearly this isn't DOS . How do I do this? ./<file> ? Is that correct? Thanks.

Your PATH environment variable tells the shell where to look for commands you type, if there is not path information.
If you want the shell to look in the current working directory, your PATH environment variable must have a period as one of the entries.
export PATH=".:$PATH"
would make your shell look in the current working directory for the command you are entering before looking in any of the other PATH directory.
NOTE: This can be considered insecure, as if you are on a multi-user system, and then are in some directory where another user has put a file such as 'ls' that you execute instead of the /bin/ls, then you could be tricked into doing something the other user wants.
Or you can invoke commands in any random directory by supplying ./ in front of the file name, or providing the full path.

.mov files won't work

I'm using WinXP SP3.
I just downloaded Quicktime Version 7.6.2.
It won't play downloaded .mov files.
I get the audio but the video is a purplish screen with fine black lines
If I'm missing a codec, how do I find it?
If not, is there a setting I'm missing?

QuickTime Control Panel / Advanced tab.
Check "Safe mode" for the video.
Quit and relaunch QuickTime Player and try the file again.
