Inserting a .wmv file into a powerpoint 2011 for mac

When I try to insert a wmv file in powerpoint 2011 for mac I get the following error. "Powerpoint couldn't insert a movie from the selected file. Either the file is non standard or Quicktime is not installed properly." I do have Flip4Mac installed. I also tried to rename the .wmv file as a .mov file. Thanks in advance for your help.

I do have Flip4Mac installed. I also tried to rename the .wmv file as a .mov file.
Do you have the $29 (or greater) Flip4Mac decoder component installed? Changing the file extension at the Finder level does not change the data type contained within the file nor the file container type. If you want the WMV data in an MOV file container, you must use the QT 7 Pro (or MPEG Streamclip) "Save As..." option (together with the decoder component) to partially expand the WMV data (file will be noticeably larger) and place the expanded data in a "real" MOV file container.

Trying to insert a picture behind text in Word 2011 for Mac

Can someone please help me? I am very fluent in Word 2010 for Windows, and this was a simple process. I was attempting to create a document in Word 2011 for Mac, like I've done many times on my pc. I wanted a picture in the background, with text on top of that. In the windows version, I would simply go to headers & footers, insert my picture, and set the word wrap to "behind text." When I closed the header/footer, I could put my text on top of the picture and by adjusting the text color and placement, I could create greeting cards, posters, flyers, whatever. Yesterday I tried to do the same with Word 2011 for Mac, and could not get rid of the white background behind my text. After attempting all the tricks I knew, I finally gave up. Can someone out there please point me in the right direction? (I tried to include a screen shot, but can't figure out how to use that little "insert image" button up there either. Sigh.)

Since yours is a question about a feature in MS Word for Mac, I would recommend reposting your question in Microsoft's Support site for Word for Mac. The experts there would be more conversant in that App.

How to apply animations to ALL slides in Powerpoint 2011 for Mac

Hi - apologies for category of this posting as it applies to software, not the MBP exclusively. Could not find better location...?
I have powerpoint presentations that are from Powerpoint for Mac 2000 or something - recently upgraded to 2011, but my animations seem to have disappeared. Is there a way to apply animations to ALL slides in a presentation rather than doing each slide individually? I've searched online but have not found instructions that work for PPT2011 for Mac...
Thank you!

Interesting: I tried switching to a workspace where it's docked by default (Book), and it was properly docked (so it's definitely possible on my version/OS). I dragged it out so it started floating, and then couldn't put it back. (while docked, it does fix the F3 bug as expected)
Also, one funny thing that is happening is, about a quarter of the time I drag it into a place where I'd expect it to dock, the cursor turns into the Mac crashing beachball until I move it away again.
I guess this probably a sign something's corrupted. Will try deleting the preferences file when I've got some free time to set things back up again.
Another sign that something is probably corrupted: Ticking and unticking "Enable floating document window docking" makes no difference to anything. Ticked or unticked, I can still dock and undock all windows except the Tools palette.
Thanks

Serious problem with Powerpoint 2011 for MAC

Hi, if anyone can help. We are a team of designers who work on Apple Macs, we use Powerpoint but have serious issues with the decks. When we move the deck window around the screen, it fragments the screen, leaving us unable to do anything else. Once this
happens, we have to re-start our Mac each time, this becomes very time consuming. Thanks.

Problem for saving files. docx in word 2011 for mac

I'm promemas to save documents in Office 2011. The files have an error in the name or path. Could someone help me? Thank you.

Hello, can you post the names?
Can you post the exact error?
Can you post the path?

I have a problem with Powerpoint 2011 for Mac. I began preparing a presentation and everything was working just fine. At some point I switched away from presenter view and then back at which point the next slide had disappeared, never to be seen again.

Did I inadvertently hit some key that blocked out the preview slide? If so, what do I do to get it back? My presentation is on Thursday so I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks.

How to insert a image file into oracle database

hi all
can anyone guide me how to insert a image file into oracle database now
i have created table using
create table imagestore(image blob);
but when inserting i totally lost don't know what to do how to write query to insert image file

Hi I don't have time to explain really, I did have to do this a while ago though so I will post a code snippet. This is using the commons file upload framework.
Firstly you need a multi part form data (if you are using a web page). If you are not using a web page ignore this bit.
out.println("<form name=\"imgFrm\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" action=\"FileUploadServlet?thisPageAction=reloaded\" onSubmit=\"return submitForm();\"><input type=\"FILE\" name=\"imgSource\" size='60' class='smalltext' onKeyPress='return stopUserInput();' onKeyUp='stopUserInput();' onKeyDown='stopUserInput();' onMouseDown='noMouseDown(event);'>");
out.println("   <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit' class='smalltext'>");
out.println("</form>"); Import this once you have the jar file:
import org.apache.commons.fileupload.*;Now a method I wrote to upload the file. I am not saying that this is correct, or its the best way to do this. I am just saying it works for me.
private boolean uploadFile(HttpServletRequest request, HttpSession session) throws Exception {
        boolean result = true;
        String fileName = null;
        byte fileData[] = null;
        String fileUploadError = null;
        String imageType = "";
        String error = "";
        DiskFileUpload fb = new DiskFileUpload();
        List fileItems = fb.parseRequest(request);
        Iterator it = fileItems.iterator();
        while(it.hasNext()){
            FileItem fileItem = (FileItem)it.next();
            if (!fileItem.isFormField()) {
                fileName = fileItem.getName();
                fileData = fileItem.get();
                // Get the imageType from the filename extension
                if (fileName != null) {
                    int dotPos = fileName.indexOf('.');
                    if (dotPos >= 0 && dotPos != fileName.length()-1) {
                        imageType = fileName.substring(dotPos+1).toLowerCase();
                        if (imageType.equals("jpg")) {
                            imageType = "jpeg";
        String filePath = request.getParameter("FILE_PATH");
        session.setAttribute("filePath", filePath);
        session.setAttribute("fileData", fileData);
        session.setAttribute("fileName", fileName);
        session.setAttribute("imageType", imageType);
        return result;
     } And now finally the method to actually write the file to the database:
private int writeImageFile(byte[] fileData, String fileName, String imageType, String mode, Integer signatureIDIn, HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {
        //If the previous code found a file that can be uploaded then
        //save it into the database via a pstmt
        String sql = "";
        UtilDBquery udbq = getUser(request).connectToDatabase();
        Connection con = null;
        int signatureID = 0;
        PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
        try {
            udbq.setUsePreparedStatements(true);
            con = udbq.getPooledConnection();
            con.setAutoCommit(false);
            if((!mode.equals("U")) || (mode.equals("U") && signatureIDIn == 0)) {
                sql = "SELECT SEQ_SIGNATURE_ID.nextval FROM DUAL";
                pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                ResultSet rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
                while(rs.next()) {
                   signatureID = rs.getInt(1);
                if (fileName != null && imageType != null) {
                    sql = "INSERT INTO T_SIGNATURE (SIGNATURE_ID, SIGNATURE) values (?,?)";
                    InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                    pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                    pstmt.setInt(1, signatureID);
                    pstmt.setBinaryStream(2, is2, (int)(fileData.length));
                    pstmt.executeUpdate();
                    pstmt.close();
                    con.commit();
                    con = null;
            if(mode.equals("U") && signatureIDIn != 0) {
                signatureID = signatureIDIn.intValue();
                if (fileName != null && imageType != null) {
                    sql = "UPDATE T_SIGNATURE SET SIGNATURE = ? WHERE SIGNATURE_ID = ?";
                    InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                    pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                    pstmt.setBinaryStream(1, is2, (int)(fileData.length));
                    pstmt.setInt(2, signatureID);
                    pstmt.executeUpdate();
                    pstmt.close();
                    con.commit();
                    con = null;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            con = null;
            throw new Exception(e.toString());
        return signatureID;

Any advice on importing wmv files into FCE?

I'd like to bring in some wmv files into a sequence in FCE. Of course this format is not directly supported. i'm having a rough time finding a third party app to use on my mac that would convert wmv files into something importable such as .mov. Any suggestions? Thanks.

flip for mac is a quicktime plug that works in all qt based applications. with it, you can open a wmv in quicktime and export it as a .mov
While I use it the other way round, to export wmv's for the web it will do what you want.
be aware that wmv is a highly compressed format and transcoding it, even to a higher size file for example dv will look horrible.
wmv is meant to be a delivery codec, not an editable one.

Inserting flash .swf file into template

I want to insert a flash file into the right sidebar to appear on all pages of the website. I know I need to do this via the template. I think I need to click in the insertion point, then copy the code (make sure the files are in the correct location). I've done this before with galleries ect.. but not in DW and not from a template. What's a little confusing is there are 3 templates. The first is in it's own folder (design template), the other two (theme 01 design & theme 01 design from template) are in the root folder, but the theme 01 design one doesn't seem to be changeale. Which template should I be working with?
www.wranglergirl.net
Thanks from a newbie! Amy

Are each of these 'templates' actually DW templates (i.e., are they named with a *.dwt extension)? If so, then they must all be located within the Templates folder at the root level of the site - it doesn't sound like that is the case. Also, why do you need three templates? Finally, which version of DW are you using? It's likely that you will have to make any links to your Flash element with ROOT relative links to be successful.

Hi:
How can I edit MPEG or convert DVD or MPEG to DV
http://www.sjoki.uta.fi/%7Eshmhav/SVCDon_a_Macintosh.html#edit_convertMPEG
Matti says it better than any of us:
how/where you can join clips with Streamclip
Also MPEG Streamclip guide explains it.
MPEG Streamclip can join similar MPEG files: The joined files must have the same PIDs, the same start codes, and the same audio/video properties (that is, they must come from the same source or channel).
Using "Convert to MPEG" before joining the files can be helpful, because it changes PIDs and start codes to a default value. The preferred method to join streams is to Copy one stream in MPEG Streamclip, open another stream and Paste it there. This method checks that the joined streams indeed are compatible. Another method is to put the MPEGs in the same folder, and rename them so that they sort as desired in list view. Then select them via MPEG Streamclip's "File/Open Files..." dialog box (Shift- or Command-click to select multiple MPEGs). Then choose "Edit/Fix Timecode Breaks". After this MPEG Streamclip should report the combined length of all MPEGs (check the Log Window if you want to know whether any timecode breaks were found). Then choose "File/Convert to MPEG... or /Save As..." to save them in a single file. If the video transition between two files looks bad, you can use the Cut command to improve it. You can join very different and incompatible MPEGs with this latter method so the end result is not guaranteed to work.
MPEG Streamclip can also edit MPEG files. Just set In/Out points (with I/O keys), Cut unwanted material off and choose "File/Convert to MPEG...". You can also Cut/Copy selections to other parts of the same stream or open another compatible stream and Paste it there. Shift-dragging the playhead can also be used to define a selection. Option + arrow keys jump to the beginning/end or In/Out points. You can use the Trim-command to more closely see a part of the video before cutting, then choose Revert Trimming to see all material. JKL-keys can be used to enable fast forward or reverse playing. The scroll wheel works also; with the Option key it scrolls 1 second per click. See the manual for more details on how to jump in single frame, GOP, 1 second, 10 second or 1 minute chunks when searching a specific spot in the video.
Editing and trimming can be accurate only if In and Out are both on keyframes because MPEG Streamclip edits to the GOP, not to the frame. For DVD and (XS)VCD the maximum GOP size is PAL 15 and NTSC 18 frames, so the editing accuracy can be up to about 0.6 seconds. You can advance to the previous or next keyframe (i.e. I-frame, the beginning of each GOP or Group Of Pictures) with the Up/Down arrow keys -- you can also use the Edit/Go to Keyframe command to see where the In and Out points really are when editing (the In point is included in the selection, the Out point is not included). Shift + Up/Down arrow keys allow fine-tuning the selection to the GOP.

Hi Helen,
You could read about that in the documentation which is available online.
For a starter: BLOB. And I bet there are many examples to be found on the web.
Good luck. :)
