Mov file in Keynote doesn't work in 4.0

I've been a presenting a Keynote file that includes many imbedded animations (mov or mpeg files) I did not create. I just upgraded to Keynote 4, and now one of the slides has stopped working. This shows Lake Chad slowly drying up (from Gore's presentation in An Inconvenient Truth), and previously it dissolved slowly from the Lake in 1963 through intermediate steps until it is gone in 2001. Now it freezes in 1963 and the jumps to 2001.
When I view package contents on the file, and double click on the mov file (there are actually a couple that I see), the movie runs fine in Quicktime. Anybody have any ideas for me? I'm making a major presentation using this file on Thursday. I guess I can save as an earlier version and reinstall Keynote 3...
Thanks.
Andy

I just open my next weeks lecture form last year and the movie doesn't play... The movie is a 281 MB H.264 movie... I can open it in quicktime and it works fine, plays in keynote 3 just fine. If I put the movie in a new presentation file it doesn't work... The preview thumbnail slide along the edge shows the movie, but it's just a blank white pane in the slide.
I just searched my HD and popped in a whole bunch of .mov movie files and they all play just fine, until I put in another H.264 one, it is also just a blank white window...
I can't believe apple didn't test H.264 in keynote 4 so this must be a setting somewhere, right?
please don't make give his lecture in powerpoint!

  • Exporting .mov files as .avi doesn't always work...

    Hi,
    I recently bought Quicktime Pro v7.1.3 for WinXP and have been trying to use it to convert my .mov files to uncompressed .avi files. I then use Windows Media Encoder to convert the .avi files to .wmv files to play on my Xbox 360. (If you know of any easier way of getting .mov files to play on Xbox, please let me know
    The first few worked fine, but then I started having problems opening some .avi files in WME (came up with an error). I tried opening the .avi file in Windows Media Player to watch it, but that didn't even work, it came up saying:
    "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file."
    Does anyone know the reason some .mov files will convert ok to .avi and some won't? Please help!

    Hi Kirk,
    I tried the DV thing, but the video size was mucked up. I only had the choice of 4:3 or 16:9 - both of which made the video stretched.
    I then realised some of my video files were 'locked' by Windows - whether that has anything to do with it, I don't know, but now they're unlocked.
    Also, when exporting, I had the choice of 'Millions of colours' or 'Millions of colours+'. I didn't know what the difference was, but chose the later thinking it would somehow be better. For the video that didn't work as .avi I tried changing this to the one without the plus sign, and it works. I don't know what this does, but I think my problems are fixed.
    Thanks again for all your help!
    Peter.

  • Importing mov with alpha channel doesn't work

    Installed the new and "improved" Premiere Pro CC 2014 and having lots of issues.
    First off, importing .movs with an alpha channel doesn't work.
    Second, the playback in Premiere is much worse, dropped frames and dropped audio quite frequently.
    Anyone have any solutions or experiencing similar problems?

    Use PNG-24.

  • Find files in folder doesn't work

    To make my photo galleries, I use CS5, because this is the last version that can use modified galleries that I was able to since CS3.  My modified pages have links to other pages on my web site, while the ones that now come with Photoshop are dead end with no links.
    So, another feature lost in later Bridges is the ability to show ALL the contents of a folder and its subfolders.  To get around this, I choose to show folders whose metadata or filename DO NOT contain zzz, since none do.  This has worked fine and I have made hundreds of galleries from my phylogenetic folder trees of species.
         Until I came to this gallery of Tachinidae. I have been updating all my Arthropod species galleries  After I did the usual procedure, and created the gallery (and deleted the previous gallery both on my PC and the web), I noticed that the first image was a Belvosia, and there were non of the Archytas or other species that should have come before, alphabetically.  I tried again and found that it was ignoring a lot of files in some subfolders that should have come up.  I tried other finds, like all files ending in .tif, or all that had the keyword Tachinidae, and always the same result.
         Then I tried the same search in CS6 and it finds all, but of course I can't make my galleries here,  I went back to CS5 and made a new folder TACHINIDAE 1  and moved all the files there and tried again, with no success.  I tried a backup file with the same result.  Rebooting didn't help.
         Today I tried again and as it did the search, I could see it indexing the Archytax subfolder and others that were not included, but now after  over 30 minutes, all I have is a spinning circle and no items.  I had gone back to other folders that I had made galleries of just before and they pull up all the images, as before, but this has stopped my progress in this project dead in my tracks.
         I can't make any sense of this at all.

    Well now it's not working at all.  I moved the folder to a higher level of my directory tree, with the same result.  then I just tried a subfolder and it quickly found that there were no images, either that didn't have zzz or that ended in .tif.
    Than I tried another family folder and it quickly found no images according to the criteria.  So now the search function just doesn't work.

  • I want to open a .MOV file, but QuickTime doesn t open it. What can I do?

    I downloaded 6 files from WeTransfer, all of the are .mov. There is only one file which I cannot open with QuickTime, and it tells me that the type of file is not supported.

    I downloaded 6 files from WeTransfer, all of the are .mov. There is only one file which I cannot open with QuickTime, and it tells me that the type of file is not supported.
    The MOV file container is generic. This means it may contain any valid combination of compressed data that was compatible with the system on which it was originally created. Different versions of the QT players are programmed to play different combinations of compressed data if
    the file is not corrupted,
    the file container is compatible with the player,
    the player is programmed to play the compressed data in that file container,
    the data was compressed correctly, and
    the codecs required for playback of the compressed data are installed and available to the player.
    Based on what you've said, all we know for sure at this time is that the file container should be compatible with all QT players. This means the file could be corrupted or contain data that cannot be decoded for any of several reasons. In order to determine why it doesn't play, you would need to provide more information or post the file for analysis by others.

  • How do you save data into an excel file while myRIO is acquiring data? I tried saving it using "Write to file" but it doesn't work for some reason.

    I am acquiring cosine wave and a pulse wave as input and I want to store their peak to peak values into an excel file. "Write to File" is not working for it. Is there any other vi which can be used for data logging?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Ssheoran,
    Can you provide more detail when you say that the Write to File VI doesn't work? Is there an error given? Or can you just not find the file on your computer? Keep in mind using this file in a Real-Time VI on the myRIO will save files on the myRIO. You will then have to transfer to your PC. Please view the following video as a guide for saving files and transferring them to your computer: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuREWnD6Eno). Hope this helps.

  • Finding XML file from EJB doesn t work.

    Hi all:
    I have an EJB accesing a XML file to parse a XML document. The file is in the classpath, and sometimes the EJB finds it and sometimes not.
    What happens?
    When the EJB finds it, DOMParser method, parse(InputStream), doesn t work.
    I use this file to config DB connection externally for my BC4J (I don t use JTS).
    Thanks in advance.

    Well, it won't work as iWeb has no import facility so cannot open html files.
    What you could do is upload the html file to wherever you are hosting your site and create a link to it from iWeb, or find another package similar to the one you are using at present that is for Mac rather then PC.

  • "open file in Photoshop" doesn't work any more.

    When I right clicked a picture in Lr (most recent version) and selected "open file in Ps (CC 2014)" Photoshop launched, but the image didn't show up.
    I tried several times, with Ps closed or open, but to no avail. Opening the file as a "smart object in Ps" works, and also opening the file in a third party application (Perfect Effects 8) works fine. Just Ps CC 2014 doesn't load the image from Lr.
    Any hints?

  • Flash movies made in keynote are not working in firefox

    I have just finished a 65 page iwebsite at
    www.acendedmasterscards.com
    it is a card reading with a flash movie - made in
    keynote for each card. It looks beautiful in
    Safari but in firefox I get a blank white bit
    instead of the movie. Help! I would also love
    comments on the site! Karen.

    I join in the other's congratulations as your site is wonderful. I really enjoy it and I have bookmarked it that I too can post a link to it when I get to an appropriate place in my web building. I will inform you of it.
    I really like what you did with flash and I was trying to do something similar using keynote but I was exporting to a podcast instead of flash and it was never working right. I now thanks to you might try to do it in flash.
    As far as the other browsers are concerned you might ask the question on the keynote forum as well perhaps one of the experts there will have another idea as to why it does not work. In the mean time keep positive thoughts and perhaps safari will become the new ie since it has been released to windows.
    Thanks for sharing

  • Upload file jsp code doesn't work? How can I debug

    Hi Everyone,
    I have the following jsp code that simply adds a new product to the backend database when 'Continue' button is pressed.
    if( "Continue".equals(fp.getParameter("Submit")) ) {
         fp.setParameters(prodForm);
         prodForm.setCreateBy(currentUser.getUserID());
         prodForm.save();
         String filename = fp.getFilename("file");
              if( filename != null ) {
              // a file was uploaded
              // set the path to save it
              fp.setFilePath(PHYSICAL_PATH + "uploads\\");
              // we will change the filename to make sure it is unique
              // need to keep the file type
              String fileType = "";
              try { fileType = filename.substring( filename.lastIndexOf(".") ).toLowerCase(); }
              catch( Exception e ) { fileType = ""; }
              fp.saveFile("file", "POS_" + prodForm.getProductID() + fileType);
              prodForm.setSketch("POS_" + prodForm.getProductID() + fileType);
              prodForm.save();
         db.close();
         response.sendRedirect("index.jsp");
         return;
    }The code works fine but the upload doesn't work. This is the upload part of the above code:
    String filename = fp.getFilename("file");
              if( filename != null ) {
              // a file was uploaded
              // set the path to save it
              fp.setFilePath(PHYSICAL_PATH + "uploads\\");
              // we will change the filename to make sure it is unique
              // need to keep the file type
              String fileType = "";
              try { fileType = filename.substring( filename.lastIndexOf(".") ).toLowerCase(); }
              catch( Exception e ) { fileType = ""; }
              fp.saveFile("file", "POS_" + prodForm.getProductID() + fileType);
              prodForm.setSketch("POS_" + prodForm.getProductID() + fileType);
              prodForm.save();
         db.close();
         response.sendRedirect("index.jsp");So if the file browser, <input type="file" name="file">, has a file, then it saves the file in the upload folder and saves the filename in the database. But it doesn't work, it doesn't save the file in the upload folder nor it saves the filename in the database. I am new to java and jsp so could you tell me what error checking or deguging I can do in jsp to spot the problem.
    Thanks,
    Zub

  • Transitions in Keynote doesn't work

    Ever since I updated to IOS5, I discovered that transitions entered through my iPad 2 doesn't work.  I transferred a Powerpoint presentation through email to my iPad and opened in Keynote.  I then proceeded to add transitions to each slide.  I saw that the bottom right hand corner showed a triangle, indicating transitions were added.  But, when I pressed the Play button in Keynote and started tapping screens, the transitions didn't work.  The slides just went through one after another without transitions.  What am I doing wrong or is there a fix I need to install?
    Thanks....Johnny

    Try booting to Safe Boot (turn the computer on and hold the Shift key, you should see a progress bar before you get to the login screen). After you login, restart the computer (this will clear your Font caches among other things).
    Otherwise, you may have some bad fonts installed.
    I'd suggest using Font Book to validate ALL of your fonts, and remove any that show errors.

  • Apple Keynote Doesn't Work

    I was trying to watch the Apple Special Event, September 2009 and it says that it's not supported on the Apple TV!?!
    The other keynotes work, this one doesn't. Weird. I wonder if this is a trend or maybe just an anomaly.

    Okay, this is getting weirder. I've discovered that if I have both Keynote '08 and Keynote '06 open, with the presentation I want to display in '08 and anything in '06 (for instance a single blank slide), then if '06 is active and I use the apple remote, I can play the '08 presentation perfectly as expected (I just press play, and the '08 presentation appears). However, if '08 is the active program, this doesn't work. I suppose this is a work-around, and perhaps I should try re-installing iWork '08 just in case I broke something when I tried moving it.
    Are there any other tests of the remote?
