No Sound On Exported Keynote Movies

When I export recorded presentations as movies they come through with no sound. The presentation plays normally with the correct recorded timing but there is no narration. I know the narration got recorded because I can play it back in Keynote and hear it. Just not when I export it.
I have spent a lot of time on the phone with AppleCare and gone through all the trouble shooting they advised and still no sound. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is a very important feature for me to be able to use. Any alternatives to Keynote's built in export function for producing movies from the recorded presentations?

Thereby keeping us on the full price upgrade treadmill (O) At least you can sat it represents feature improvements for the money – unlike so many other software non-free upgrades to get major bug fixes like the dreadful Bento.
I think a major feature request, Precision placement of end positioning for builds is kind of included by way of Magic Moves or whatever they are calling it but it's only between slides. Still implies numeric control of position which could be a BIG improvement on zooming in, fudging around by hand only to lose control of the object as it disappears behind its start image. It's kind of like a feature I requested, duplicate slide with objects in end positions (as a easy fix) but better in that the end position can be modified and Keynote calculates the adjustment to move, rotate etc.

No sound after exporting to .mov

When I export to a .mov using QT the sound from my project is gone. I tried to exporting to movie and get sound on a .m4v file but would prefer a .mov Any suggestions?

I think the iPhone can only record in mono..... I haven't found a way to capture stereo yet.

Exporting a movie doesn't save the sound track

First timer with Garageband so I might be doing things totally wrong. Hopefully someone can tell me where I'm going wrong. Also first time using Keynote. So I make a presentation in Keynote and then send it to Garageband via the File-->Send to option. Garageband fires up and my movie is inserted. Great. So now I want to add a sound track to my movie so I select a Jingle and play it back in Garageband. My movie and jingle play. It's all looking and sounding great. Then I want to export this as a MOV file so I go to Share --> Export movie to disk. I select web streaming as the video setting and hit export. It does it's thing and saves my file out. I play it back in Quicktime and the movie plays but there's no sound track. What gives?

There are lots of options regarding 'Take Folders' if that's what you mean...
Have a look at the Logic Pro User Manual...

Exporting Keynote to Quicktime - complete loss of sound

Hey,
I’m facing problems when it comes to exporting Keynote to Quicktime.
For a tutorial, I recorded a Quicktime movie of my screen (including my voice as audio). This Quicktime movie is placed on a slide and runs during the whole presentation. I use animations for showing text blocks that give additional info while the movie is running.
In Keynote everything works just fine. But when I export it to Quicktime, *the sound stops as soon as the first animation is started with a click*. From then on I can see both the embedded Quicktime movie and the animations but without audio.
Sometimes it even happened that after doing the first click I could see the animations only, but no Quicktime video / sound.
I’ve spent the last nights with trying changing export settings and so on, searched this forum up and down, but couldn’t find a solution…
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Mike

I just posted this on another similar inquiry. THis may help. I posed a similar question so check the thread "Bottom line...etc." If you follow the guidelines below it should work. The final result is one QT movie with all slides and music. The product was so much nicer than the iPhoto slide shows (although they are OK too. (I don't know about the video in the Keynote might work as described in the initial post here.)
Here is what the final answer was, at least for my situation:
"YESSSS!!! Even after meeting with 4 Geniuses and 1 Creative the answer was still a definite bottom line, "Maybe." Until, I finally realized that the one setting that I was not using correctly was in the Export> QT> Playback. I had been using "Manual" and not using the "Fixed Timing" out of fear that it would change the custom settings that I had on each slide. However, that is not the case. The settings on each slide remain the same even though in this option there are settings for slide duration and build duration. I do not know what those options do but the bottom line is I now can Export to QT and then import to iDVD with both sound and video as one file and they work fine both as an isolated QT file as well as a QT/Slideshow in iDVD. Thanks for the help from all the contributors both recently and quite awhile ago when I first faced this challenge.
Peace,
Jim

Quicktime Export - Keynote, Streaming, and Movie Controller Settings

A few questions regarding qt export from keynote -
Is there a way to save quicktime export settings in keynote? Right now I'm exporting multiple files to custom sizes, and have to manually enter the size every time.
I'm exporting for streaming as well, and have to select it in the qt settings window every time.
also, is there a way to choose to show the movie controller when exporting a movie? Now I have to open the movie after export in qt pro and choose window>movie properties>presenation>movie controller type>movie controller (it defaults to none when exporting from keynote).
also, oddly enough, is seems that saving the movie after choosing to show the movie controller removes the streaming setting (movies wait to load completely before playing).
Thanks!

No answer to the main question...but the final question--
When you edit a QuickTime movie, even if the edit is merely to change the settings on the controller, it breaks fast-start. You should be able to fix it by doing a "Save As..." instead of saving the movie in place. But that doesn't seem to work in all versions of QuickTime; I have noticed that certain versions of QT-7 seem to break fast-start altogether.
There is an app out there called "Lillipot" that will fix this for you. Drag your movie to Lillipot, it does whatever magical conversion is necessary to make fast-start work again.

No more alpha in exported QuickTime movie from Keynote '09

Hello
In Keynote '08, I create a slide with no background (None).
I add some text with some fancy text IN and OUT features.
I export using the Animation codec and the transparency option.
When I reimport the movie in another Keynote '08 file, it inherits the transparency of the imported file and thus everything is perfectly blended.
In Keynote '09 it is not possible anymore.
Even if I import an exported QuickTime movie from Motion with a transparent background, it is not possible to have a perfect blend, all layers are opaque.
Last but not the least, adding transparent files on top of each other in QuickTime player does not preserve transparency despite the fact that the Animation + transparency features are added in the files.
Thank you in advance.

Hey Gary - first off, thanks for your reply! I am currently forcing spotlight to re-index to see if that might help me out. After that I will try your suggestion and run a system software check.
I need a ProRes export as this is going to be combined with IMAG footage from a live presentation as well as additional video from an Arri Alexa. I want to preserve as much quality as possible so that there isn't a discrepancy in the final edit. Originally, I was rendering a small test to the desktop to gauge output quality of animations etc. I did go ahead and re-export a second time to an external drive, but it doesn't seem to matter as Keynote appears to initially render everything to the startup drive no matter what. The second export still ate about 15 gigs from my startup disk and I am unable to find any sort of temp files anywhere!
I am showing all files in Finder and searching around the ~/private/tmp folders to no avail. In the image below there appears to be a discrepancy in the size being reported by finder and the size I'm seeing listed in terminal...

Why no sound when exporting movie?

Pretty new to Quicktime Pro.
When I try to export a .Mov file for email purposes (or any other setting) the sound option is greyed out and the movie exports with no sound?
Quicktime Pro 7.04

How To Identify the file*, video and audio** format of a movie or sound file
In QuickTime Player
Open the file
Window menu > Show movie info
Look in the Format: field
Note that QuickTime Player may fail to display any audio information for some files.
In MPlayer OSX:
Show the playlist window if it isn't already visible.
Drag the movie file into the playlist window.
Select the movie in the list
Click the "i" button for info
In VLC
Open the movie in VLC
Window menu > Info
Click the black triangles so that they point down
Note that VLC does not display the file format, only the format of the content (audio and video) within the file. A file ending in .divx for instance, is probably in actuality an avi file but VLC doesn't show that information - MPlayer will and QuickTime Player will - if - QuickTime Player will open the file to begin with.

No sound when I export my movies with QuickTime for windows.

Using QuickTime Pro for windows and getting no sound on my exported movies. Won't even give me the option of adjusting the sound on options then movie settings. Any ideas? Thanks...

QuickTime Pro can't extract audio from muxed file formats (MPEG 1 or 2 and Flash).
MPEG Streamclip (free) can.

Error exporting long movie in Premiere Elements 4

I just finished editing a movie in Premiere Elements 4. Every time I try to export the movie, it begins rendering, gets as far as about 15%, and then says "Export Error: Error compiling movie. Unknown error." This happens no matter what format I choose.
I've read that this problem can be caused by titles and transitions, of which this movie has both. But I think the problem is entirely due to the movie's length, which is six minutes and fifty-five seconds. I say this because if I split the movie into 25-to-50-second chunks, leaving all titles and transitions intact, all the chunks export with no problems whatsoever.
I'm not running any other programs while the movie exports, but that doesn't help.
The source files are MOV (and one PNG), and the resolution is 1920x1080. I want to export it at the same resolution, otherwise what was the point of shooting in that resolution? I'm running Windows Vista on a Samsung R522 laptop, if it helps.
For what it's worth, I did manage to successfully export the audio portion of the movie as a WAV file.
What can I do? My movie is due to premiere at a local arts festival in a few weeks, so I need to sort this out. I read somewhere that the ideal setup is to have three drives -- one for the source videos, one for running the program, and one to export the file onto. Will that help?
Many thanks for any suggestions you may have.

Thanks Bill -- and thank you mods for moving the thread. I couldn't find an Elements forum so I assumed there wasn't one.
Actually, the progress bar in my version does tell you what frame it's on. When I tried to export it just now, it gave up around frame 2328 of 12447. Frame 2328 would be 01:17:18... which is the middle of a clip, with no titles, no effects, and no transitions, just ordinary video and sound. 30%, the number you suggested, gives frame 3738, which is 02:04:18, which is a different clip but the same deal.
The exact number varies from attempt to attempt anyway, which is why I think it's a "system memory" problem rather than a problem with a certain moment in the film. As I said, each part of the film exported fine on its own.
The videos are all MOV format, 1920x1080, ranging in size from 40 MB to 666 MB (maybe the devil is trying to stop me from exporting). There are 41 of them, giving a total of 11.9 GB. The single PNG is also 1920x1080 and 6.02 KB. The movie's audio is actually muted -- the audio that I successfully exported before was just the original audio from the raw clips.
I've got 55.3 GB of free space on my C drive and 580 GB of free space on my external drive; Premiere won't successfully export onto either of them.
Thanks for the link to the KB article, but I'd read it before and it didn't really help. As it says, "unknown error" really does mean just that. And it's clear that none of my clips or effects are problematic since they all exported fine when split into chunks.
I really do appreciate your help! I don't know too much about computers so if I didn't give you the information you were looking for please let me know.
Thanks so much,

No Sound on Interactive Keynote Widget?

OBJECTIVE: I am trying to imbed an interactive Keynote Widget into an iBook with short audio clips that play after transitions between slides. The Keynote presentation consists of 8 slides that generally consist of an image, a couple of buttons (shapes with associated links to specific slides), a text box or two, and some have inserted audio .m4a files (less than 5 seconds in length). The audio objects are set to 'start after transition'. The overall presentation is set as a 'Links only' presentation type.
PROBLEM: After testing succesfully in Keynote, I saved the presentation, dragged it into iBooks author, and previewed it in iBooks (running on OSX 10.9.2 Mavericks). The widget works splendidly... except the sound. Audio objects aren't activated by transitions. No sound at all out of the Keynote Widget.
WHAT I'VE TRIED: I have checked that sound is working right on my Mac. In fact, Audio widgets on the next page of the same iBook work fine. I changed the audio files in the keynote presentation with a different one that was already working in my iBook as an audio widget. I have tried putting the keynote presentation into a untouched standard Apple template. No sound at all from the Keynote Widget. I also looked for solutions in online help files, Apple's Developer Forums for iBooks Author, and here in this section of the Apple Support Communities. I only found two similar questions/problems neither with a posted resolution (https://discussions.apple.com/message/22443281#22443281 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/22444086#22444086).
TECH SPECS:
iBooks version 1.0.1
iBooks Author version 2.1.1
Keynote version 6.1
OSX version 10.9.2
Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong? Or is it an inherent limitation in the program? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

That being the case, Apple has stated that recorded narration will not work in the keynote widget (see iBooks Author: About the Keynote widget - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5067).
Self-Playing and Recorded presentations
Self-Playing presentations and Recorded presentations with voiceover narration may not work as expected. Readers will be able to view and manually advance your presentation, but recorded narration and timings won’t be available.
The same article seems to indicate that some audio files should work in the widget, evidently as sound objects.
Keynote files can contain media—such as images, movies, and audio—but don’t use a Keynote file just to add media to your book.
I haven't been able to figure out how to get it to work yet though. If we can figure out how to get sound objects to work you could still put the audio in your widget, just break it up into a seperate sound file for each slide, and advance to next slide on click. Someone would have to figure out how to get the sound objects to play like they should though...
With regard to the other audio files: That is weird that Apple told you to use .m4p format for audio. Their online documentation says to use m4a. The following is an excerpt from iBooks Author: supported file formats - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2838.
Video and audio files: M4V, M4ANote: For the Media widget, you can add a video file or an audio file (in a format QuickTime supports) to your book. You can convert other types of files using iMovie, QuickTime Player, or Compressor. For the HTML widget, the suggested file formats are MP4 video files and M4A audio files.
Either the tech who emailed you saying to use .m4p is mixed up, or their online documentation is wrong.
Please let us know if changing to m4p works for you. That may help others out.

I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's

I work with Premiere Pro on a mac and export quicktime movies to be played on pc's or mac's. When I export a qt from Premiere with audio it will not play on a pc only a mac. After extensive research I have narrowed down the problem to this: if you use the inspector in quicktime it looks like this
DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
I have to run it thru AE to make it look like this....then it plays
DV, 720 x 480 (640 x 480), Millions
16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz
SOOOO the problem is the Little/Big Endian. I googled that and it looks like a file/bit structure....anyone know how/why to change it in Premiere? Because everytime I make a movie in Prem I have to drag the sequence into AE and render it there so the sounds works.....
thanks

Two questions:
1. What CODEC are you choosing when exporting on the Mac?
2. Do you have any Blackmagic hardware/software installed?
Cheers

Exporting Quicktime .mov with audio

I searched for a solution to my problem for a while and haven't found any so I felt I'd finally ask.
I am exporting a movie in Premiere Pro 2.0 as a .mov. Yet everytime I export the audio quality is awful. The audio plays fine within premiere, and the video exports perfectly. I've tried uncompressed audio, and the result is a loud static sound. I've tried multiple compressors (oblivious to which I should be using) none of which offered good results (sometimes it was even silent). What settings should I be using? (By the way, the audio in the scene is .mp3 and .wav, but I felt using the uncompressed setting would be find since I wouldn't be recompressing the audio)
I'm sure this is a very basic issue that has been addressed multiple times, but I couldn't find a thread or resource on the internet that helped with this issue I'm having. Thank you for any help you can offer, I appreciate it.

I use the same settings, as you, with one exception - instead of 8-bit, choose 16-bit for the Sample Depth.
I also dislike using MP3 as a source. With the exception of tiny SFX files, I always convert these to PCM/WAV (Uncompressed) 48KHz 16-bit, before Import. That does NOT restore all the data lost with the MP3 compression (I hate the sound with MP3, but that's a different topic), but it gives me the best source to edit. I use Adobe Audition, but the free Audacity does a great job of this.
Hope that the 16-bit does the trick for you.
Good luck,
Hunt
BTW - what are you using to play the resulting MOV?

How to restore sound to exported avi? - Flash MX 2004 Pro

Hi,
Over the last couple of days I have been tinkering around with Flash MX 2004 Pro. More specifically, I have been importing avi's to the library and then placing the embedded video into a movieclip so I could have more control over it. While in the library I could preview the video along with the sound. Exporting the video again in avi format it would render the sound. However, all of a sudden it will only preview the video and not the sound in the library and the same goes for when I export a video there is no sound. The strange thing is the sound is still present when I test the movie. I have tried reinstalling the program with no luck. Any ideas?
Many thanks.

Well there is no answer to my question, but I did finally get the Adobe Media Encoder dialog box to come back again.
After uninstalling Premiere and QuickTime, then shutting down the computer, rebooting and logging on to the Admin account, shutting down again, rebooting again, logging in to the Admin account again ...
I then went in to the registry and removed all the Entries that had either of these in it:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\COM
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\DVA\FLASH
and these as well
C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
C?\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTComponents\FLV.qtx
Rebooted the computer, logged back in to Admin.
I then re-installed QuickTime, and rebooted.
I then installed Premiere and the Adobe Media Encoder Flash dialog now shows up.
I'd be careful messy with the registry if you are trying to fix this type of problem. Try uninstalling quicktime and premiere and do the above shutdown, reboot sequence a number of times before doing anything to the registry.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that Flash Website I've working on...

Cannot export to .mov

Hello!
When I try to export to .mov, AME will load. When I click "Start Queue," the progress bar immediately successfully completes, and the encoding is marked complete. However, no file is generated is this split second. Does anyone have an idea on what might be wrong here? I'm not getting an error, but something is clearly not right. I'm using the default NTSC DV preset.
I can successfully export to .wmv and .avi. I've tried opening the .avi in AME and converting to .mov, but the same issue occurs.
Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks.

Keynote movie exposure

Can I modify the exposure of movies in keynote 6.1?
As I see, the exposure can be adjusted in case of images, but if a movie is too dark, can it be corrected somehow? The imovie-adjust-export routine is a no go, cause i have a square format movies, and imovie cannot export square movies (I end up with correct exposure level, but with 2 black bars on the side of the movie).

You can change brightness contrast and colour.
Download and install MPEG Streamclip
open and drag the video file into the main window
File > export to Quicktime
compression: H264
adjustments: change brightness, contrast, saturation, click OK then Preview
change the settings if required
