Import a ppt and add audio

I am trying to record/add audio to a project that I created from a powerpoint. How is this done? The ppt comes into Captivate as one slide so I am not able to coordinate my words with each click that moves to the next screen. So far my work around is to create a new captivate project, screen by screen, and copy in a screen shot from the ppt. captivate project. There must be an easier way?
Thanks.

what versions of PPT and Captivate are you using?
what options are you selecting when importing?

Hi,
Error 7 is when a router or the connection to the router is broken in some way.
Some devices have features such as Denial Of Service protection (DoS) that cut a particular Internet Port when it thinks too much data is coming (Presuming it is an attack.)
iChat 5 in Leopard is not capped by the System Preferences > Quicktime Streaming speed (which we used to suggest was set at 1.5Mbps)
It now sees your whole Connection speed and your Upload may be much faster than this.
Your Download is likely to be much faster. However iChat will tend to operate at the lower figure of your Upload.
DoS features are threshold based.
You may now be bumping in to this Threshold where you were not before.
SPI (Stateful packet Inspection) does a different job but has the same effect when it is overloaded by the speed of the data.
If you have either of these features, turn them Off (Disable them)

Problems with importing .MP4 file and the audio in FCP 6

Hi all,
I am pretty new to Final Cut Pro and have just approached my first project.
I have a Samsung VP-MX20
http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/detail/spec.do?group=cameracamcorder&type=cam corder&subtype=flashcamcorder&model_cd=VP-MX20/XEU&fullspec=F
*Codecs H.264, AAC.*
I needed some space on the camera so halfway through a holiday i transfered all the video files from the camera to my Laptop.
I have imported these files from the hardrive
Vid rate - 25 fps
compressor - H.264
Pixel Aspect - PAL - CCIR 601
What seems to be the problem is ok when i drag the clip from the viewer to the canvas and apply insert, i get the box that says 'Change Sequence settings to match the clip settings?
i click yes and when the clip is layed out on the timeline there is a red line above the timeline, when i play the clip i only get bleeps as audio and not the original sound.
If i drag the playhead i can hear the audio but if i try to play all i hear us bleeps plus if i import an mp3 the red line appears above the timeline and the same applies
can anyone help me here.
Thanks
Elles

Hi Zak,
many thanks for your reply, i have contacted Apple and taking your advice and using compressor i have converted the codec H.264 to Apple Pro Res 422 for interlaced material.
I have imported this file and when i drag once again from the viewer to canvas i get the standard box asking to change the sequence to match the clip.
I am still getting the red line above the timeline and bleeping as audio.
any idea?

Notes App That Can Import Word Docs and Record Audio

I have Pages now which you can import Word docs to.
I have another app that can record audio and take notes, but you can't import documents.
Is there an app that does both? Import Word docs that I can edit and then also record audio at the same time?
Thanks!!

Yes you can use Pages for Word documents and transfer the files as Word documents to iTunes and then to your desktop via file sharing. I use it. Frankly I haven't paid attention to any of the spell check features at all so I can't say for sure that it will work the way that you want it to work.
From everything that I have read about Pages v Documents to Go, I was under the impression that Docs to Go was the much better choice for all around compatibility with Word files. Actually, Pages has some issues going from Pages on the iPad to Pages on the Mac in terms of compatibility and formatting.

Import in itunes and add tag

I want to add many compilation folders of mp3's to Itunes. I want to create a automator workflow which will automatically add a specific tag in grouping, year and also check as a compilation when I move the folders to the specific folder that the folder actions are appointed to.
I can't manage to work this out. Can anyone give me some tips?

I import a lot of my content from my external hard drive and i dont know which option i should use.
Use the 'Add to library...' option. If you have checked the 'Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library' (Preferences>Advanced>General), the files also will be copied to the 'iTunes Music folder location' as set in the preferences.
There's an article that describes the differences between the importing and adding functions here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301509
Hope this helps.

Automatic Import Index Entries and Add All References?

I have figured out how to import a list of index entries to automically generate an index. Problem is, it doesn't allow me to choose the Add All feature to search the entire document for those terms. What am I missing?

Editing and saving audio files (as audio files)

I am trying to accomplish the following tasks. Can anyone help?
1. Fade into and out of a section of audio file.
2. Save an audio file as an audio file. Although QT said it could export in dozens of formats, I can only manage to find "Save As Movie"
I am trying to make a slideshow (I can do that) and add audio (I can sort of do this), but it's not very graceful because I can't edit the audio very well.
Thanks!

Do you have QuickTime Pro? What "audio file" types are you referring to - MP3, WAV?

Clickbox and Rollover Audio not working

Hey guys...I'm just trying to insert either a clickbox or
rollover area where audio is heard ONLY when someone either clicks
the box or hovers over the area. I wan't multiple areas on the
screen at the same time and I want them to work to the very end of
the slide so that people can just click or hover over areas and
hear the audio for as long as they want to. It seems like that
would be a simple task. As I create it though and record the audio
in both scenarios, when I preview the movie all of the clickbox or
rollover audios simultaneously and automatically start playing. It
doesn't wait for me to click or hover, all of the audio just plays
at once. Why is this? Thanks for your help.

Good morning, Brock
For the Click Box, you need to edit the properties and enable
the feedback captions. Enable the Hint caption if you want to hear
a sound play when hovering the Click Box. Enable the Success
caption if you want the sound to play after clicking the Click Box.
Then you edit the caption and assign audio there.
For mouseovers, add a Rollover Caption or Rollover Image.
This provides two areas on the slide. One is the area you mouse
over, while the other is the area that appears. You then edit the
area that appears and add audio to that area.
Hopefully this helps... Rick

I am importing a video and in iMovie the video is now white. the audio still plays and I can play the video properly outside of iMovie so any help is good?

I am importing a video and in iMovie the video is now white. the audio still plays and I can play the video properly outside of iMovie so any help is good?

I going to recommend again, downloading and installing some video helper applications.
1. http://perian.org/ (this will add a number of different file types to the ones QuickTime already plays)
2. http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac (will add more file types to what QuickTime can play)
Either one of these might be necessary to get MPEG Streamclip to export the video. Failing that the only other thing I have found is an obscurve discussion thread on Avid.com:
http://duc.avid.com/archive/index.php/t-277791.html
I've figured out what the problem is on my end. The video came from Avid on a Windows machine and was encoded with Squeeze. I found out that the 2 seconds of black at the top of the video were at a different frame rate than the rest of the video. I chopped off the 2 seconds of black and started at the first frame of video, exported it with Quicktime Pro and was able successfully view the video in ProTools. Apparently Squeeze will let you create a movie file that has different frame rates within the same movie... This fixed my issue that was exactly as you describe, hopefully it might work for you.
Lastly, you could try converting the video clip using HandBrake

Drag and drop FLAC audio into iPod to convert and add?

I manually sort my music as albums in folder directories. I have never liked how iTunes wanted to sort my music back in 2005 and I don't like it any more today.
I recently got a 6th gen iPod Nano via the 1st gen iPod Nano replacement program and I am disappointed in how I cannot use Winamp to manage my playlists anymore. Winamp would automatically transcode incompatible FLAC audio into MP3 before transferring onto my 1st gen Nano.
I have my iPod options under iTunes set to automatically convert higher bitrate audio to 192kbps AAC, but dragging and dropping FLAC audio into my iPod gives an error message that prevents me from adding anything.
I thought maybe I had to import my audio into iTunes' library first, but scanning for media adds every audio file including system and program audio files to my library, which really clutters things up. It treats each artist as an album, so compilation albums of 30 audio tracks from 30 artists appear as 30 individual albums in my iTunes library. Most cumbersome.
I am also appauled in how it did not detect or support playback of FLAC audio. I am not willing to convert my entire library into a proprietary lossless audio format just because iTunes wants me to when other programs and I were getting along so well without iTunes and my 1st gen Nano.
Anyway, what I am hoping to achieve is to find a streamlined way to convert FLAC audio files into MP3 or AAC while I am transferring them to my iPod without having to involve another program to manually convert before adding. This is a huge convenience factor for which I am regretting having my 1st gen Nano replaced. I will admit that I am perhaps being overly stubborn here. Maybe I'll just sell this 6th gen Nano while it's still pristine and get a Sansa Clip or something. Apple products have become too stifling and I won't be surprised if there was no way to achieve what I am asking to do here, so maybe this ends up a being more of a rant than a search for answers.

foobar2000 with the ipod plugin will allow you to drag/drop FLAC files and when it syncs the ipod, it converts the FLAC files on the fly. MUCH better than dealing with the crappy iTunes interface and having to pre-convert the files. I absolutely loathe iTunes and it just gets worse and worse!

Is it possible to add audio with a simple play/pause button and also have a clickTag attached to the full stage?

my client wants to add audio to their banner ad (which always has a full stage clickTAG set). I'm trying to figure out a way to just use a simple play/pause button and attach a toggle action to it. Problem is when the user clicks it's going to the clickTAG URL that's attached to the full stage. Is there any way around this?
Please advise and thank you in advance.

I have the same issue. It is pretty annoying but at least the audio remains within the motion project. It just isn't accessible it seems as an FCPX template. So what I'm doing is this:
I still use the video within FCPX's generator section so that you can edit the parameters as you need to
For the audio, open the project in motion then under Share, click 'Export Audio'. Select 'CAF' format and save to your hard disk
I then import the audio file into an event I set up specifically for this purpose (per BenB's suggestion).
When I need it, I then insert the generator from the generators section and then attach the audio file below the primary story line for the audio track
It isn't pretty but it works.

Converting .ppt file to iMovie and adding audio

Is iMovie HD the version that comes with iLife '05?
Is iMovie 6 the version that comes with iLife '06?
Is it possible to import slides into iMovie HD from a PowerPoint file?
If so, is it possible to preserve interactive features, such as text that moves across screen, etc.?
Is it possible to then import sound and sync this to the slide presentation?
If so, what file formats are compatible for importing into iMovie?
Are these features improved in any way in iMovie 6?
Powermac G4 Digital/Audio 466 mHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

In iLife 05 it was the first version ofiMovie with HD capabilities. Now the version is iMovie HD 6.
You can not import a .ppt file, but you can save that file in PowerPoint as QuickTime movie, which can be imported in iMovie (yes, with all things you designed in the .ppt).
You can import any audio that works in QuickTime, including mp3 and AIFF. And for sure you can then sync with the video.
iMovie 6 is better than previous.

Difference between Import and Add in Itunes

Hi can Someone Explain the Exact Difference Between Import and Add files To Itunes , as I have done Both and They Both seem to Work for getting Music on to Itunes , However somewhere I am still getting Doubles songs even Though I have No Double files or songs in Music Files ..
so If someone Knows What is the Difference and What happens to the Files in Add and Import
that would be Great
Thanks mark

Hi mark,
You should use "Add to Library" to add audio files and other type media files. The "Import" functionality should be used to add playlists and data files (XML file, for example). However, it's also possible to add audio files, using "Import" feature.
[This link|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301509] also explains when to use "Add to Library".
Hope this helps!

Difference between Import and Add

Just curious what the difference between Import and Add File/Folder in iTunes is? I know consolidate will create a copy of your files and put them into the iTunes library.

Import is for audio files.
Add to library is for MP3, AAC, Apple Aossless, aiff and wav files.
I know consolidate will create a copy of your files and put them into the iTunes library.
Close. The iTunes library what is in iTunes.
Consolidate copies the files into the iTunes music folder.

Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project in iMovie? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. Whenever I add audio or song it covers the whole project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

Thank you for your reply Karsten but unfortunately this didn't help me so far. Or maybe I'm missing something?
First the link is a tutorial for iMovie on a Mac. I'm using iMovie on iPad so the steps are inapplicable.
Second it is only possible for me to manipulate the end part of the sound clip to whichever duration I want. But I can't do the same with the 'beginning' of the sound clip.
I simply want to place some photos in the beginning of my video with no sound in the background then after like 2 secs I want to start the music clip. For some reason that is not possible! Cause every time I drop the music clip unto my project timeline it automatically place it self along with the first frame in the project! And consequently the photos and music are forced to start together.
Hope I'm making sense...
