Managing movies / Book recommendation?

I'm trying to find the best way to add some QT movies to a site. I have one that's 12.5 mb that takes a bit of time to load, and sometimes craps out on the load. Once it loads, it's OK. I have a second movie I ran thru QT Pro for web streaming. What results is a folder with a 4k .mov file, a 76 mb .m4v file, a poster file and a read me instruction file. I can't figure out how to implement the instructions to make this work - is there an iWeb book or online resource that can take these kind of things step by step? I'm publishing to a folder, not on .mac. So far I'm satisfied with my site, photos and music are
all working, just trying to get these QT files to work effectively.
The site is

If you import the movie into iMovie (I use iMovie HD) you can then use the Share->iWeb menu option which will create the referenced movie and put it into an iWeb movie page automatically like this page.
There are very experienced experts here that can tell you other ways to reduce the file size considerably. Let's hope they will drop in to add to this topic.

  • Managing movie files on a MBP

    Until the last month or so, I've used a powermac G5 as my computer. Now that I've added a shiny new MBP with a 750 gb drive, I'm having all the normal growing pains that come with such. Amazed with the speed boost, having to learn to deal with big time limitations on storage.
    Right now, I'm trying to figure out managing movie files. Up until now, I upload most if not all my movie files from my iPhone or Canon 7d into iPhoto. Then later, open iMovie and it "sees" them and does what it does and so forth. Basically, I was using iPhoto and iMovie to handle movie files.
    Now that I'm using a MBP, I don't know that I'm going to continue using the powermac G5. Not much, anyways. The speed is way to amazing with the MBP. Not only that, I'm using Aperture 3 for managing pics and it happens to upload videos. I posted in the Ap3 community a similar question regarding managing movies with my current setup.
    Should I turn off the import movies option for Ap3 and only use iMovie to continue to manage movie files?
    considering movie files, which are primarily HD ones for me now, I have iPhoto, iMovie, and now Ap3 that I can import movies to. If i were using a big desktop macPro with tons of HD space, I really wouldn't think much about hard drive space.
    However, now that I'm entering the world of laptop computing for the first time, managing disk space (as you all know) is a specialty all its own, I'm learning quickly. As far as Aperture is concerned, I referenced all my masters off the HD inside the MBP onto an external drive so I can free up some space. I freed up almost 400 gbs!
    Now I'm looking at how to manage movie files on a MBP.
    Real world example: went to a concert last night, filmed over 2 hours of movie files of the concert. Before I import them off my iPhone, I'm wondering where in the world to import them to. iPhoto? iMovie? Ap3?
    What do you all suggest I do with a MBP and managing movie files? Should I continue with importing to iPhoto and letting iMovie then "see" them and do it's thing? Or should I get another external FW800 drive and start using it just for movie files?
    What would you long term users of laptops suggest as the best long term approach to managing movie files (which program, internal Vs external, etc) on a macbookpro?
    Thanks

    It won't take too much time for your hard drive to fill up with movies you've processed through Aperture or iMovie. Many users opt to dedicate an external hard drive for their movie projects, and I can recommend the G-Drive and Seagate Go Drive for speed and reliability. I don't own OWC drives, but they're rated well, too. A one-TB drive will keep you going for a long time.
    Process your movies as little as possible. Depending on he content, you can lose a little every time you transfer the data. Use a single format to manage your documents, since this will minimize conversion. Your process flow seems to rely on iMovie to manage movies.

  • I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same fam

    I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

  • Has anyone managed to book an iphone 4S after 9pm??

    Has anyone managed to book an iphone 4S after 9pm??

    Apple is not requiring a reservation in the US to purchase an iPhone 4S. You can start making a reservation after 9:00 PM on the night before you wish to purchase a phone...first come...first served.

  • Was able to move books to old Nook but ADE does not recognize the newGalaxy Tab4 nook that I got

    was able to move books from ADE to my old Nook, but can not get the program to recognize my new Galaxy Tab4 nook.
    If copy and paste, am unable to open......does not accept my Adobe ID

    ADE doesn't recognize devices connected in MTP mode, the new Galaxy Tab4 might be connected in MTP mode.

  • Can I use quicken to manage my books on quicken

    Can I use quicken on iPad to manage my books?

    Maybe you could put your Quicken file on the Cloud (which will mess up your  data) but there is no App to read the file on ipad. This Apple rep did not know what he was talking about!

  • HT201272 I cant be re-download songs through iTunes Store/purchased = No "Music" folder, only Movies Books and Apps appears. Why?

    The function for free re-downloading of songs you've already bought but for some occasion have deleted
    doesnt seem to work for me, does anyone know why?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    In this link above, under
    "Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV-shows on a computer"
    "Using iTunes 10.7 or earlier"
    step "6."
    My iTunes doesnt appear the way its displayed in step "6."
    It should be displaying "Music" "Movies" "TV-shows" "Apps" "Books"
    but only shows "Movies" "Books" "Apps"
    WHY?
    This means I cant redownload songs I've already bought without buying them again.
    (I use 11.0.5 on OSX 10.6.8 but still iTunes looks for me like it does under the "Using iTunes 10.7 or earlier" -tab,
    now that too is weird..)

    What country are you in ? Music can't currently be re-downloaded in all countries - the record companies need to agree to it for each country.
    What content types can be re-downloaded where : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music and you haven't got them on your backup of your library, then if they are still in the store then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download of them : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • AJAX book recommendation

    I have been a Java developer since 1995 and am very experienced in writing rich client applications.
    I would like to learn how to write rich Internet applications using AJAX and am looking for book recommendations, preferably using Java EE for the server side.
    Thanks.

    I think if you google Learning AJAX or AJAX tutorial, you will also discover very good books on the language and lots of suggestion with regards to book on the topic.

  • Cann't load LiveCycle Rights Management protected books

    I cann't load Adobe LiveCycle Right Management protected books in Adobe Digital Editions. Should it be possible?
    I can read the books with Acrobat Reader 9, but it would be nice to have then in the library of Adobe Digital Editions.
    I cann't even read then in my Sony Reader Library and copy and read them on my Sony Reader PRS-505.
    Is there a solution for one of these problems or better both?

    No, loading PDFs protected with LiveCycle Rights Management is not possible using ADE, you will need to use Adobe Reader, or Adobe Acrobat instead.

    Hello,
    The Desktop Manager is mainly a tool for backup and configuration. Most people who use a Blackberry buy it to complement tools they use daily, such as an address book, a mail software, a calendar system. That's why most people will rely on desktop solutions like Outlook, Lotus, webmails (GMail, Hotmail) or webcalendars (Google Calendar).
    You are asking for something like that, but from Blackberry. There is not. Or there is. You can grab for a 99$ tool that allows you to use your Blackberry on your PC :
    http://www.berryreview.com/2008/02/20/bayalink-liberty-key-use-your-blackberry-from-your-computer/
    But that will not really be what you need. The Blackberr y is all about synchronization between a desktop solution and your handheld device.
