Mpeg-4 codec for Apple imac

How do I get these types of videos to play on Quicktime? I can get the audio portion but not the video portion. The video screen is black. The movie information is M4S2 640x480 MillionsDVI ADPCM Mono 44.10kHz.

Try this codec.
Hope it works for you.
BTW, questions about the Mac version of QuickTime are usually best posted in the QuickTime for Mac forum. Regards.

Mountain Lion Spotlight no longer indexes "codecs" for Apple Lossless files?

Hi, I was recently trying to find some Apple Lossless files stored on my hard drive, and I tried searching using Spotlight's "codec" option (by typing "lossless" into the search field in the Finder). However, nothing came up. Upon further investigation (by looking at the info windows for various Apple Lossless files), it appears as though Mountain Lion no longer indexes the "codec" for Apple Lossless files, and therefore doesn't let you search by it. (Although I haven't tried this recently on at least Lion or Snow Leopard systems, I can verify that on OS X Leopard, which I still have running on an old machine, both the description "Apple Lossless" next to the codec field in the Info window came up, and it would also let you search by it.)
I was just wondering if anyone else might have experienced this on their Mountain Lion systems? Thanks!

I regret to inform this still has not been solved, though deleting the externalrecords helps purge those remnants away.

Quicktime Pro 1080p codec for apple tv?

Anyone know if there's a Quicktime Pro codec yet that will take original 1080p content (like home movies shot on a 1080p camera) and encode it to M4V for Apple TV at 1080p? I think the "Export to Apple TV" in QTP-7 still encodes to 1280x720 doesn't it?
Thanks!!

Although QTKirk has provided the most generic answer that should provide useable file, here are some additional details:
I think the "Export to Apple TV" in QTP-7 still encodes to 1280x720 doesn't it?
Unfortunately, this is true. The current TV preset creates files targeted for use on multiple TV models which limits the maximum resolution available.

Unfortunately, the only QT 7 Pro option that allowed the creation of a 1080 H.264/AAC M4V file was the old "Movie to H.264" option which was replaced by the current mobile device specific presets. You can, of cource create a 1080 H.264/AAC MOV file using the "Movie to QuickTime Movie" method described by QTKirk or create a 1080 H.264/AAC MP4 file using the "Movie to MPEG-4" option and then either change the file extension manually (works with most apps that don't really check the file container type) or actually remux the data to a real M4V file container.
On the other hand, there are other, non-QT 7 Pro options available. I personally prefer the free HandBrake option here. It has separate presets for TV (720p24, 540p30), TV2 (720p30), and TV3 (1080p30) options available if you prefer that route or allows advanced customization to create your own preferred preset to directly create an anamorphic or non-anamorphic 1080p H.264/AAC M4V file. What you shpould actually be asking yourself here is not ifthe there is a work flow that can make your 1080 content but what are the actual goals of the work flow you want to use. For instance, are you saying "I want to create the best, highest quality 1080p non-anamorphic file I can and don't care how large the file is or how many hours it takes to make the conversion?" or are you saying "I will accept a high quality, anamorphic file that is playback efficient in terms of file space and streaming requirements and requires only a moderate investment in time for the conversion?" or something in-between?

Does Apple sell memory for Apple iMac 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (21.5-inch - DDR3) Late 2009 anymore?

I have a 21.5-inch, late 2009 iMac (Apple iMac 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo [21.5-inch - DDR3]) and I need more memory for it. Currently, I have the standard 4GB memory for it (2X2). I wanted to know if Apple makes memory for my model iMac anymore. Thanks!

Buy your ram from either Crucial http://www.crucial.com or OWC http://eshop.macsales.com.
Apple probably still sells ram for your iMac but you'll pay twice the prince and get less for it.

Nomad Zen Extra for Apple iMac Intel Dual C

I've looked in the FAQ, tried the download section of support, and cannot find any software for my Nomad Zen Extra to run on a new Apple iMac Intel Dual Core. The new machine uses OS X 0.4, and there seems to be nothing at all.
I also tried loading the software from the disk, and it didn't work (no surprise there since it's all Windows software).
Can anyone offer any suggestions, or do I have to go buy an Apple iPod?
Thanks for your help.

Why wasn't I warned about this when I purchased the device? There's nothing on the packaging or inserts to point out that the device WILL NOT WORK if one switches to an Apple iMac.
The company's website is equally obscure.
I certainly expected to need new software for the iMac, but not that my Nomad was now a door-stop and wouldn't work.
How do I get my money back from Creative, given that the Good Guys store has been absorbed into Circuit City.
I appreciate your help.

Original SSD kit for apple iMac 27 2011 or OWC SSD Apple 27" iMac 2011 Modell

is it better to use Origina SSD kit Cable for Upgrade the 27 2011 iMac with a samsung pro SSD? or i can use OWC cable. is there a differece ? the Origina SSD from apple is 2.5 tims more Expensive then the OWC cable.

Difficult to say without seing the machine. It sounds as if you installed the SSD drive yourself. If that is the case you may have voided the guarantee and Apple Care extended warranty.
If Apple installed the drive, all should be well. Apple hardware and work usually carries a 12 month guarantee.

How to install QT MPEG-2 codec?

I'm on a PowerBook 1.67, 10.4.6, QT Player v. 7.1. Bought the QT MPEG-2 codec from Apple Store online. Selected folder "For QT 6.4 and later and Intel Macs" ... double-clicked on "QuickTimeMPEG2.pkg" to install and apparently nothing happens.
I am trying to use mpeg streamclip to extract some footage from a home DVD and export for iMovie use. When I attempt to open a .vob file in Streamclip, it tells me that this MPEG-2 codec is not installed.
For double confirmation, I looked in HD/Library/QuickTime and didn't see any corresponding "MPEG-2" files. I STF but didn't see anything other than what I've mentioned above. Any help is MUCH appreciated.

Looked in Sys->Library->QT, there was nothing with MPEG-2. There are items for MPEG AND MPEG4, yes, but nothing with MPEG2...wouldn't it say MPEG-2 if it installed correctly?
It was $20 from Apple Store; yes, I'ver restarted a few times.
Help. Please. Thanks.

Problems With MPEG-2 Codec

I've been having problems with Apple's MPEG-2 codec for Quicktime.
All my 640x480 movies are labeled as 720x480, and when I convert them to .mp4 with VisualHub (third party software) it stretches them to 720x480. It didn't do this before I got the codec.
Is there any way to fix this?
Alternatively, how do I uninstall the codec?
Thanks.

I am using the Sony HVR-Z1U camera. I have firewire connection on the camera that I have connected a Sony HVR-MRC1K memory recording unit to. The tape in camera starts the recording then the digital recording kicks on. I have to always have a tape in camera to start recording onto firewire connect digital hard drive recorder. As I mentioned in my previous post, the HVR-MRC1K records to a 32 gb compact flash high speed card and saves files as M2T files (MPEG2) I covert/transcode the files using Clip Wrap software to Quicktime .MOV files. I am them able to import them into FCP X and or iMovie. Once in FCP X the files play, but will skip or drop frames. Again there is no issue on my other mac using FCP 7. I don't even have to transcode files in Clip Wrap. They import automatically using a connected USB drive and Compact Flash Card. I really would like to use FCP X and move forward and not have to take a step backward using only FCP 7. I am in Fort Myers Florida. There is an Apple store nearby in Estero, Florida and one a little further in Naples Florida. I have only gone to the Estero Florida store. The Naples store had FCP classes only twice a week and the Estero store had none.

Is apple pro res 422 best codec for transfering HD footage in Mpeg stream?

i have m2t files that are not recognized in FCP...is this a good codec for transfer?
thanks,
steven

I use an inexpensive program called ClipWrap (http://www.clipwrap.com/) that avoids transcoding by simply rewrapping the .m2t files in a .mov wrapper. It's fast and works well.

No settings for Apple Lossless Audio Codec found in Compressor

For archiving reasons I have to convert many audio files to Apple Lossless (ALAC). So I thought it would be easy using Compressor 4 and and a suitable droplet. I was astonished that here are only settings for the following audio formats: AAC, AC3, AIFF, CAF, MP3 and WAV.
No Apple Lossless Codec in the settings?
Does anyone know how to create ALAC files

Thomas A. wrote:
This setting generates a QuickTime file with the extension .mov
Of course it does. Why would that be a problem? "Apple Lossless" is not a file format, it's a codec.
OK, if I change the extension manually to m4a it seems to be an ALAC file, but I am not sure if it a "correct" one in regard to the specifications.
There is no "ALAC" file format specification. What are you going to use the files for?
ALAC isn't specified at all. The audio codec is called "Apple Lossless", and it is a set of algorithms to encode audio data, and a specification for a bitstream of audio data encoded such. It can be put in various containers, the most common being MPEG-4 and Apple Quicktime, but nothing will stop you from using AVI, .mkv, .ogg or anything else as the container format.
If you're unhappy with Compressor, which only seems to offer the QuickTime container format for Apple Lossless-encoded audio, there might be other tools that will transfer it into another container while leaving the actual encoded data untouched.
Since the Apple Lossless codec is now free, mencoder might work, even for the encoding itself. I haven't checked MPEG Streamclip, Handbrake, VLC or others, which might also offer such options.
Quick tests didn't yield any success, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't work.
An alternative for lessless encoding is the "FLAC" (free lossless audio codec), which is usually stored in an ogg container file. I don't think Compressor offers that, although VLC does.
It seems that the exact thing you want is not readily available (i. e. mpeg-4 audio-only with Apple Lossless audio codec.)

Mpeg-2 module for quickTime does not read a .mov (HDV codec 1080i50)

Hi,
I've just bought the Mpeg-2 module for QuickTime for Windows, I've installed it and it does not work.
It cannot read .mov files with codec HDV 1080i50.
I can hear the sound, but I cannot watch the video.
Please, may somebody help me ?
Thanks

How to read a .mov file with the HDV codec on my PC ?
The file has been edited using Final Cut Pro on a Mac.
I have to edit the titles and realise the DVD authoring, but I cannot use it.
I've bought the module after reading on the Apple website that the module could read this kind of file on QuickTime Pro.
Any idea to read it on a PC?
Thanks
Mario

I have my iTunes library on an external HD because it is too big for my iMAC 500GB HD. I want to backup my external HD. Can I do this with any Apple cloud product or should I look elsewhere? Also is it worth just buying another external HD to back up

I have my iTunes library on an external HD because it is too big for my iMAC 500GB HD. However, it is not backed up, so I need a solution to backup my external HD. Can I do this with any Apple cloud product or should I look elsewhere for cloud products? Will it be cheaper/easier just to buy another external HD to back up my existing external HD? Thanks

I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected
it is.
is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air?
i wouldn't - at least not until i
mount the external
point iTunes media folder location back to the external via preferences > advanced
consolidate my library via file > library > organize library
The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know.
in order for your Mac to write to NTFS drives, it needs some help by installing e.g. the NTFS 3G driver. apparently that or something similar is installed on your Mac already. preferably, it would be formatted for Mac but then windows machines would need to have e.g. MacDrive installed to recognize the drive.

imessage on my iMac has created two iMessage account both asking for Apple ID....and no option to - (delete) one of the two duplicate accounts....how can I delete one of them it just bothers me due to sign in issues....when signed into one it signs out the other and goes inactive I just wanted to delete one of them so this issue doesn't happen....why doesn't it give the option to delete ONLY these two accounts

1. Don't confuse "Apple ID" with iTunes Account ID. You can have many Apple IDs but only one iTunes account active at a time.
2. If you "changed" your iTunes account ID, you actually have 2 accounts - one under the old name plus the new name.
3. You can't merge the accounts - they remain separate. Apps purcahsed under the old account name will update ONLY WHEN THE PHONE IS SIGNED IN TO THE OLD ACCOUNT NAME and visa versa.
4. Likewise, you can sync only the apps, music, media purchased under the account the phone AND iTunes are signed in to.

14th May 2013.
We placed an order on medIT (Medit Information Technology) for the following items:
6 units of Apple iMAc-All_in-one-1 core i5 2.9 GHz-RAM 8GB-HDD 1x1tb-GF GTX 660M- Gigabit LAN-WLAN : 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0-OS x 10.8 Mountain Lion- Monitor : LED 27”wide- keyboard: English.
We paid to their account; Bank of Cyprus Public Company Limited the full invoice value.
As of today 14th May 2013 we are still waiting for delivery of the goods despite numerous advices that a partial order of 3 items the order has been shipped.
We have made numerous follow up calls to medIT directly and through other customers of medIT, but we have no clue as to when we will receive the goods. On 29th April, 2013 they gave us a FEDEX airwaybill no..We regret that we have not been able to trace this airwaybill on the FEDEX system.
We are, therefore, pleading for assistance from any support group to link us with the right department so that we can have accurate information on the movement of this parcel.
These items were ordered for a government department of the Republic of Zambia and this non-delivery is creating a bad name for Apple Resellers covering Zambian market. The project upgrade of the project is now falling behind due to non-delivery on our part arising from the non-performance on the part of medIT.
We can make available for inspection copies of the order and remittance details to the appropriate office for review and ready reference.
We can be contacted directly on “James A. Ngoma”
<Personal Information Edited by Host>

If you ordered from MedIT in Cyprus, they do not appear to be an authorized Apple reseller. If they are indeed not authorized by Apple, there will be nothing Apple will be able to do to assist you in this matter. You will need to work the problem out with MedIT, obtaining legal assistance in Cyprus if necessary.
Regards.
