Is there any way to get a closer close-up than cropping in imovie?

Is there any way to get a closer close-up than cropping in imovie?
I've got a portion of the video as close as I can through cropping, but it's still not as close as I would like it. Is it possible?

not really ....
keep in mind: zooming into video degrades quality dramatically - therefor, for your convenience, the cropping features is limited to some factor.
to override that limitation, two options:
• create a project with just this clip; crop it; export/share Quicktime; re-import to iMovie, crop again - again: everything beyond 150-200% is, on my behalf, way beyond 'accepatable'.
• reveal original clip in Finder (cmd-click on it in the Events browser), and open it with free MpegStreamclip - it allows a 'all you can eat' cropping ....

  • Is there any way to get the server app other that through the app store. We do not have our system conneted to a network. I typical downloaded items on a non-apple system.

    is there any way to get the server app other than through the app store. The system that I need it on are not connected to the internet.
    We run a closed-loop network of apple systems and I tipically downloaded updates on a non-apple system that was on the internet.
    Any ideas?

    I did buy the server app, went to the app store to download it. This system I'm using for downloads is Snow Leopard 10.6.8, it shows that I can download it but only as an Install which says I need 10.8. I can't seem to find a way for it to just download as a package or .dmg file so that I can copy it to DVD/CD or flash drive.

  • I had 41 tabs open in about six groups over the last year and a half and I just close them and exited Firefox. Is there any way to get them back?

    I had 41 tabs open in about six groups over the last year and a half and I just close them and exited Firefox. Is there any way to get them back?
    Also, is there any way to save a group or an open session and then restore it later?

    History menu, if it was destroyed in the last session
    then use "Restore Previous session:" and then restore all windows also from the history menu.
    If done in this session try the restore all windows under the history menu.

  • When closing multiple tabs, is there any way to get back the option of saving those tabs OR NOT for your next session, within the warning dialogue box itself?

    For brief period of time, not in FF4, there was the option whereby when I closed multiple tabs, a firefox dialogue box opened warning me that I'm about to close multiple tabs, '''AND ALSO''' asking me if wanted to save those tabs for my next session, or trash them.
    The primary issue IS NOT about saving tabs. The primary question here is about getting THE OPTION back to the CLOSING MULTIPLE TABS WARNING DIALOGUE.
    The use case here should be obvious. However, since it is clearly not obvious that different people work in a variety of ways, and neither of those methods of working is "wrong" or "right" I will elaborate: Some people, for whatever reason, it doesn't matter why, want to save all their tabs on some occasions, and on other occasions don't.
    This preference varies throughout the day. Therefore it is inefficient to constantly go to preferences and change whether or not I want firefox to open all my tabs from my last session. It is more LOGICAL to place an option in the multiple tab warning dialogue as well, for people whose preference constantly changes.
    This option was available for a time in most of the Firefox 3 versions. Is there any way to get back this option in Firefox 4?

    Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no need for asking if you want to save the current session.
    You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session.<br />
    There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default <b>about:home</b> Home page.
    You can set the warn prefs on the <b>about:config</b> page to <b>true</b> via the right-click context menu or toggle the value with a double left-click.

  • Is there any way to get the files from other computer ?

    Hai all,
    I have 2 computers connected. I know the IP address of other computer. Is there any way to get the files from other computer. (for e.g. I want to get the files from specific folder. In Java netwroking is it possible? (Any programs)
    regards,
    Namanc

    Bro Take it easy.
    Think you need to send a Image file named ("abc.gif")
    now develop a server using ServerSocket and connect it in local IP and any PORT
    For example i think ur server is connected in "localhost" and 9000 port.
    Now make ur server educated using some commands.
    For example:
    FileName: <File Name String>
    [Means new file is sending by connected client]
    FileSize: <File size long or int value>
    [ So that ur server can determind about the total length of sender file]
    DataModeOpen
    [Now your client will send its image data, this command means your client software is sending data]
    fjadlkfjaofaijojfwoeiurfodkjflsajlfksa
    l23j4lj23lkjlasjfoq23j4rokjelfkjasldkf
    2o3j4lk2j3ljslakdjf2l3j4 l23kjlk23k4j
    DataModeClose
    [Means file sending finished]
    Close
    [Means your client connection is closed]
    Now develop a client supporting this command.
    For example(Server):
    String getFileName=null;
    long getFileSize=0;
    public handleCommand(String getCmd) {
        if(getCmd.startsWith("FileName")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileName=   splitData[1];
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("FileSize")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileSize=Long.parseLong(splitData[1]);
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeOpen")) {
               //data mode open so receive data
              receiveData();
              outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeClose")) {
              //close client socket
             getClientSocket.close();
    }For client:
    DataInputStream dataIn=null;
    BufferedOutputStream bout=null;
    public sendFile(bytes[] getBytes) {
            //if ok found then do other or show error message
        if(sendCmd("FileName:"+getFileName)) {
            if(sendCmd("FileSize:"+getFileSize)) {
                if(sendCmd("DataModeOpen")) {
                   bout.write(getBytes);
                } else {
                   showError(3);
            } else {
                   showError(2);
       } else {

  • Is there any way to get a stacktrace when...

    Hi
    Is there any way to get a stacktrace (both thread dump and monitor dump) when there is nothing wrong with the java application? ..The reason i want this is to see more closer what the application does. I tried the following command: kill -QUIT (PID) ..on a test app. but it didnt show anything, probably because there were not anything wrong, but i still want to see how the application is behaving while its running. I also tried typing <ctrl>\ in the window where the java application runs, but this seems to be the exactly same.
    After typing <ctrl>\ i only get this "Quit" message and no stack trace:
    115845
    115846
    Quit
    So, is it possible to get a stacktrace from the application even if there is nothing wrong with the application just to see how its behaving ?

    Have you tried jstack:

  • Is there any way to get the height/width of an image before importing it in the indesign document.

    Hi All,
    I need to obtain an image's attributes such as dimensions (height, width in pixels) without placing image in indesign document.
    I have full path of the image (say abc.jpg is stored at c:\my pic\abc.jpg).
    I have obtained the IDFile for this image, tried getting size using GetFileSize() which correctly return size in bytes.
    Is there any way to get the height/width of image without importing it in the indesign document.
    Please, give me some hints. I have spent quite a lot time digging in CHM. I have searched in FileUtils, IDFile API's but found no method which serves this purpose.
    At this point I am clueless where to search next.
    Any help will be appriciated.
    Just a point to mention, I am able to get image height and width for an image in indesign doc though Its not my requirement.
    Thnx,
    D.

    You might be able to examine the contents of the PlaceGun after calling kImportAndLoadPlaceGunCmdBoss without actually placing the image in a document. Not sure, but would be worth looking at.
    Otherwise you will probably have to write platform specific code, ideally with a generic platform-independant wrapper (see SDKSamples/paneltreeview/PlatformFileSystemIterator).
    For the Mac, look at CGImageGetWidth() etc., not sure what the best option is for windows.
    Perhaps Quicktime could provide you with a platform independant solution.

  • Is there any way to get the appStore link for my application

    Hi everyone , i am developing an app which has a feature of sharing its appstore link with the friends through mail,so that they can see my appplication in appstore and buy it directly on click of a button. For that i need to use the app store link of my application for sending it . is there any way to get that and using it dynamically in my app immediately after releasing it.

    Your best bet would be to create a web page of your own for the app. Design that page so that it uses 'META REFRESH' to redirect the visitor straight to the App Store link.
    That way you can hard-wire your own web page address into your app.
    This has the advantage that it can work well even before you've noticed that your app has arrived on the App Store. Create a real web page, describing the app and telling people to search for it in the App Store by name - then replace it with the auto-redirect page when you've discovered your application's App Store address.

  • Federal court website gives a .pl document which opens as garbage until we manually change it to .pdf, is there any way to get Firefox to do this automatically?

    I am using a Mac. When downloading a document from the federal court website using Firefox, we get a .pl document which opens as garbage (in TextEdit) until we manually change it to .pdf, which causes it to open just fine (in Preview). It used to work fine, giving a .pdf document every time, but apparently upgrades to Firefox have removed this functionality. As far as I can tell my computer, an iMac running Mac system OS X 10.10.1, does not recognize the .pl format. Is there any way to get Firefox to automatically convert a downloaded file from .pl format to .pdf format? My friend tells me that Google Chrome downloads these documents with no problem. I would prefer to stick with Firefox but I might have to change if every downloaded document is in an unreadable format.
    This is a typical example of what I get when I try to open a .pl document (the pdf version is a one page document using plain English):
    =====

  • Is there any way to get my photos FROM my iPod Touch back onto a new hard drive?

    My Mac crashed last Friday. First timeIs there any way to get my photos FROM my iPod Touch back into my new hard drive. The iTunes sync only goes one way from the computer to the iPod.
    It syncs the photos taken with the iPod (really an old iPhone 3G without phone service) but not the folders which I synced from the old hard drive to the iPod over the past year.

    thank you for the tip.
    Yes, my computer was backed up. for reasons way too complicated to go into here, these particular folders were not part of the backup.
    Thanks again for the help.

  • Itunes deleted my 30 gigs of music and I didn't have it saved in itunes or on computer, is there any way of getting music back?

    Itunes deleted 30 gigs of music from my ipod. And I don't or didn't have it saved in Itunes or on my computer....is there any way of getting my music back? Alot of the music was not purchased from Itunes....mostly from cds I dont have anymore! PLEASE HELP!

    If the lost music is no longer on your iPod, on your PC, or in another backup somewhere, you are out of luck.  You can download most iTunes purchases again at no cost via iCloud.  See this article for more information and assistance.
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For non-iTunes purchased content, you'll need to redownload or rerip them from their original source.

  • Is there any way of getting back from a wrong clicked free trial to add my serial number correctly?

    Hi
    On purchasing a new imac I copied the apps across & on opening CS6 was requested to load serial numbers, through tiredness I added the seria; number from CS5.5 and therefore not recognised for the CS6, then when about to enter again through tiredness I must have clicked free trial and now have the CS6 in that format.
    Is there any way of getting back to that initial box to load the correct numbers & get out of trial as although it works I need it set up correctly?
    Any help appreciated

    Sorry, cant see this visible on menu or drop downs, did run through all menus before posting, could just be tired from 3 weeks straight.

  • Is there any way to get 720x576 (ie DV Pal)  from iphoto slideshow?

    I have tried the iphoto forum and have been directed here. Is there any way to get 720x576 (ie DV Pal) for an export from iphoto slideshow? I want to export 200+ photos with random transitions and the ken burns effect. Imovie offers offers automatic ken burns effect via project properties but I can't find a way to add random transitions automaticcally. Is it possible? I want to add the exported file to a movie in Final Cut Studio. Normally I have to resort to using adobe photoshop elements 5 and premiere elements 3 on my bootcamp partition. I would love to do this all in Mac OSX - since leaving Windows, this is the only thing that forces me to use that lousy operating system!
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I have tried the iphoto forum and have been directed here. Is there any way to get 720x576 (ie DV Pal) for an export from iphoto slideshow?
    Not directly. But you can do it with a bit of external help. Create a slideshow project in iPhoto using the "Random" transitions and auto KBE you want. Then export the slideshow as a 640x480 MPEG4/AAC 30 fps full motion MOV file. Drop the file to MPEG Steamclip and select the "Export to DV" File menu option. The select the DV format, PAL standard, and aspect you want. (I would normally select the "Frame Blending" option in the main menu when going from 30 fps to 25 fps.)

  • Is there any way to get around having to use iDVD to burn DVD?

    Is there any way to get around having to use iDVD to export FCE to DVD?
    I've been trying to burn a FCE2 sequence to DVD. A friend of mine told me all I had to do was put a blank DVD in, click on the icon on the desk top, export the sequence to Quicktime and drag the QT sequennce into the DVD icon and click burn.
    Well something happened! But there's nothing on the DVD!! What am I doing wrong? I loathe iDVD. i don't want to author. I just want to burn the project on a DVD. Please advise. Thanks.

    If you export a sequence at full resolution to can burn it onto a DVD as a data DVD, but this is for transportation purposes only. At full resolution the DVD, especially as it fills up, will not have sufficient throughput to sustain good playback of the material. That's why the material is encoded into MPEG-2 for DVD authoring. If you want to make a DVD for set-top playback it has to be authored to include the DVD format structure. There is no way around that. If you don't like iDVD, take a look at Final Cut Studio, you might prefer DVD Studio Pro. Or you might what to look at Roxio's Toast. It has basic authoring capabilities. Personally I don't think direct playback hardware solutions (except for seriously expensive ones) produce acceptable quality, but that's just me.
