Loading a movie on HD

Ok I  loaded a movie onto my HD   I converted the avi to mov  and it plays choppy  using quicktime
Any thing else I should try to do. 

You don't have to buy new if you don't want to.
I've bought numerous Apple portables on eBay, but you really have to know what you're doing. Trial and error is not a way to go on such an expensive item.
Here is latest lineup:
http://www.apple.com/why-mac/compare/notebooks.html
Which one is for you depends on what you want. In March, I bought the first new Mac I've had since 2003, having upgraded over and over again through eBay.
I decided on the 13-inch MacBook Pro because I wanted a FireWire port and an SD card slot. Your needs may be different from mine.
If you decide to buy used, I can recommend either the MacBook 2.0 or 2.16 (we have one of each). When buying used, I won't buy unless the original system discs are included. Also, if the OS has been upgraded, I won't buy unless the Install disc(s) of the upgraded OS is/are included in my purchase, too. Both of the ones I bought still had a bit AppleCare coverage left on them (which means they were somewhat less than three years old when I bought them). Make sure the eBay seller has recent positive Feedback. If you're not familiar with eBay, then it probably isn't a good idea to start with such an expensive purchase.
Any MacBook will be a spectacular upgrade over the iBook you have now. Whatever you decide, good luck.

    So basically I want a hard drive with X amount of films etc on. Can I then watch them on my iPad?
    Hope this makes sense.

  • Lenovo C560 with Windows 8.1 (16-gb RAM) will not successfully load Windows Movie Maker

    I loaded Windows Movie Maker 12 with Windows Essentials.  -This is exactly the same setup I am using on a HP desktop at work with Windows 8.1, but for some reason my C560 keeps giving me a "low memory" warning and will not load a AVI clip.  -Worse, after trying... my whole computer gets glitchy and nothing seems to work properly until I shut it down, and restart it.
    Quick recap on what I have tried.  Upgraded from 6-gb to 16-gb of RAM.  Increased the size of my Virtual Memory as much as it would let me.  Nothing has made the slightest bit of difference.

    If you have a flashlight available I would shine it into each of the USB ports to make sure all the contacts are aligned straight and to see there is no debris in the port that could be shorting out the data contacts. 
    Another thing to try is going into Windows Device Manager and uninstall the USB and then reboot the computer.  When the computer restarts it will again install the USB ports.  This procedure will make sure the operating system correctly has them installed.
    If the USB ports are still not functioning I would recommend you contact Lenovo Support for warranty service. You can find the phone number for Lenovo Support in your country or area by using the link below....

  • HT203167 I ordered and paid for a movie without being on wifi or connected to my laptop.  I have not been able to down load the movie that I paid for so how do I get it down loaded?

    I have a couple of questions.  I down loaded a movie when I was not hooked up to wifi or connected to my laptop.  I was charged for the movie but I have not been able to down load it or find it anywhere in my account. 
    Question:
    1.  Where do I find this movie and how do I get it down loaded to my I Pad?
    When I signed in to ask this question I had to go through a lot of sign in problems and also create a user name that is completely different that any of the sing in information that I have used previously.   Which create a lot of questions:
    1.  Why did I have to create a user name that I never had to do before?
    2.  Will this change the sign in process in the future?
    I will appreciate the answers to these questions
    Thank you very much.

    yes it could well do if your bank thinks there is something going on that is not from you they will block it. I have had this problem before, I would of thought they would of phoned me but they don't do that.
    If I was you I would go to my bank make sure they are not doing anything like that. If they say it's all fine then i would phone up apple them self or go into my local apple store, as they should be able to look at what there servers are saying why it's not working.

  • Internal Server Error when trying to load a movie

    Before I visit a friend to solve a problem on her Mac (latest OS and QuickTime installs already done), perhaps you can offer tips on things to look for: Whenever she tries to load a movie file from the Web (either in Safari or directly in the QuickTime app), she gets a "500 Internal Server Error".
    What should I be looking for?
    Lots   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Try a different browser such as Firefox to determine if the problem is with the QuickTime Internet plug-ins and their related settings. (You might also bring with you a functional copy of the plug-ins from your /Library/Internet folder as reinstalling QuickTime can sometimes be a bit of a hassle.)
    Next, Try downloading the movie instead of playing it. In Safari, paste the url of the movie in the Safari downloads window. If it doesn't download, obviously, it can't play. (Assuming its not a stream rtsp:// url)
    Next, pull QuickTime preference and plist files from /Library and her user Library folders, restart, then try again.

  • Itunes wont load new movies

    like it says itunes wont add/load new movies i have to the libary

    Are they in the right format?
    Right click a video and go to convert selection for iPod. Does it convert?
    Or, are the videos not going into iTunes? For videos to be imported, they have to be in a quicktime-compatible format. Right click a video and go to properties. What is the file type?

  • Movie inside of a loaded external movie

    Hi
    how to control a mc inside a loaded external movie?
    so I have a main.swf, loaded a ex.swf into it by using loadMovie, and inside ex.swf there is a mc called 'mc'
    how do I control 'mc' from main.swf? I tried something like newLoader.mc._x +=1;  ( newLoader is ex.swf), it doesn't work?
    Thanks for reply.

    Hi Ned
    after I read your reply, i went on make a new sample file just to try it out, and it work, then I went back to my file and found out on these code
    var currentObject = new Object;
    currentObject = newLoader.newLoader2.newLoader3;
    var currentObjectColor = new Object;
    currentObjectColor = currentObject;  
    and then I have
    var my_color:Color = new Color(currentObjectColor.mc);
        trace (allowColor);
        my_color.setRGB(this.colorCC);
    for some reason, after I replace currentObjectColor to just currentObject, it work just fine, I don't know if the problem is from putting one object equal another one, but as far as I need this would work for me.
    thanks a lot.

  • Passing variables to loaded external movie

    Ok, this problem has beaten me for the last 2 days. It seems
    to be extremely simple, I am on main movie and I am using
    MovieClipLoader class to load external movie callMe.swf into movie
    holder called holder_MC, then from main using onLoadInit or
    onLoadProgress listeners I can target dynamic text inside
    callMe.swf as holder_MC.myTXT.text = "blablabla" or I can change
    frames in callMe.swf by holder_MC.gotoAndStop(5). But HOW TO PASS
    VARIABLE myVar to callMe.swf so it executes something there? Using
    holder_MC.myVar DOESN'T WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thanks for any help,
    Zbynek

    UPDATE... I copied the link to another page with my variables in the image attributes as I posted above. And it works using the values that are cached for those items. Is there any way to do this on the same page as my original link without my users having to change to a different page?

  • Disabled combo boxes don't display properly after loading a movie.

    Hi,
    I have a main movie that contains some combo boxes. Some of them may be disabled.
    By pressing a button I load another movie using loadMovie. The loaded movie also contains combo boxes.
    When the button is pressed, the clip that shows the combo boxes is removed from the stage and the loaded movie is displayed. By pressing another button, the loaded movie is unloaded and the clip with the combo boxes is displayed again.
    Well, once the other movie has been loaded, when I go back to the clip with combo boxes, the disabled combo boxes have a small gray button covering the black down arrow.
    I have determined that so long as the loaded movie contains combo box in the library, the problem occurrs, even if there is no actual instance of it.
    The combo boxes that are not disabled are not affected. The combo boxes are disabled by setting "cb_name.enabled=false".
    If the combo box is enabled, it displays correctly, but if disabled again, it goes wrong again.
    My project is targeting Flash 8, so it uses AS2.
    I'm using Flash CS4.
    This is a very simple example I did to make sure I wasn't doing anything funny:
    Initially:
    After pressing the button:
    After pressing the other button:
    The behaviour in a web browser is the same...
    I hope someone can help me with this. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the response.
    The "Load the movie" button:
    on(click)
        _parent.gotoAndStop(2);
    The 2nd frame:
    loadMovie("Test another child.swf",Container);
    stop();
    The "Unload and go back" button:
    on(click)
        unloadMovie(_parent.Container);
        _parent.gotoAndStop(1);
    Container is a movieClip with a dark gray square shape the size of the movie clip that is loaded. It doesn't exist on frame 1, only on frame 2.
    The combo boxes are inside a movie clip, and this is only on the stage on frame 1.
    This and the captures belong to a very simple test I did. If there is a way of posting files, I can post a zip file with the two .fla and the two .swf.

  • Loading a movie clip to Flash

    I have a huge movie clip to be imported, its pretty huge so I
    divided them to smaller pieces and tried to import, everything my
    PC gets hung and does not respond after import. What is the best
    method to import a single huge movie clip? Your help is
    appreciated.

    Problem Solved.
    To everyone that has experienced some version of this issue,
    whether it be in previewing a load progress bar, or having
    animation freeze on you while loading external movie files...
    In test mode in flash, whether you are doing a simple test
    movie or debugging, loading progress appears to not be threaded and
    will freeze you movie until the load is complete. if you preview
    this movie clip in a browser after publishing it, everything should
    look ok.
    I've read a lot of posts about this same topic. Macromedia
    (or shall i say Adobe), fix this issue in your next release. what a
    pain...seriously. debugging is useless if the movie doesn't even
    run the same.
    very much relieved,
    Al.
