Nobody can watch my quicktime movie in iweb!!

I made two movies in iMovie and imported them directly into iWeb. I can watch them on my website and so can the apple tech people, but most importantly my professor cannot! I am the only one using a mac for this class - does anyone know if this could be a glitch between PC/mac? Or has anyone else had this kind of trouble with Quicktime 7.0.4???
I'm frantic cuz it's for my final that was due on Friday!!!! TIA
Vicki

It could be that you are using the latest and greatest video codec called H.264 to encode your movies and your professor's PC doesn't have the latest version of QuickTime 7 to be able to decode the movie. This usually results in a blank white movie frame with audio.
Two choices depending on which might be easier given your individual situation... Get your prof to upgrade his QuickTime player to the latest from Apple... or ... reencode your movie with anything other than H.264 if you know how to do that. Good luck!

  • Nobody can open my quicktime movies sent as attachment....

    It's a basic thing. I've tried many. Nothing works. What's the easyest way to export them so people can open it? 'Via quick time conversion' and then...
    What am I doing wrong????

    You'll need to export as an mpeg-4 video or H.264
    export > using QuickTime conversion > options > settings > Compression Type > mpeg-4 video or H.264 > OK > OK > give it a name and save location > save.
    Another thing one could do, after you have done the above is up-load to something like Google video. your video can set set as private and, then you can just email the link directly to the video. makes for faster emailing of video files.

  • Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    What arrow?
    Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
    If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.

  • I have purchased MOVIES from Apple iTunes and want to know how I can burn them to my DVD so I can watch/view the movies on my TV's located in my house?

    I have purchased MOVIES from Apple iTunes and want to know how I can burn them to my DVD so I can watch/view the movies on my TV's located in my house?  Pls post what you know or works for you - I see the movies on iTunes but am unable to locate them in any folder on my computer???  Thank you!

    So what is meant here is spend more money - wrong answer.
    For that reason most people prefer to buy movies on DVD. They are easily shared, foolproof, and super easy to use. I love Apple TV and iTunes for music and TV shows, but I would never purchase a movie that was not on an optical disc.
    When I head out-of-town I can grab a couple of DVDs to watch on my new MacBook Pro during the flight. Easy and uncomplicated.
    DVDs offer another advantage. You can watch your movie without depending upon a complicated and delicate infrastructure. Also, movies are frequently censored for political correctness (Star Wars is a recent example).  Despite public pressure for a release, the Disney movie “Song of the South” remains banned.  Even cartoons like Johnny Quest are now censored.  Only people who purchased physical copies years ago have them as they were originally produced.
    When you possess a physical copy of the movie the PC patrol can't mess with it.

  • Premiere CS4 - How can you import QuickTime (.mov) videos and which settings for the sequence?

    Premiere CS4
    How can you import QuickTime (.mov) videos and which settings for the sequence?
    Please reply in plain English or if possible in German
    Greetings from Vienna, Peter

    I have not installed Quicktime.
    I got a few scenes (.mov) from a Canon Eos 70d.
    I want to create a short film (in Premiere CS4) with these scenes, mixed with photos and MP3 music.

  • Uploading Quicktime Movies to iWeb

    I've exported a photo slideshow with music to Quicktime movie format, but even though I've selected the small size file, when I try to upload it to iWeb, I get a message saying that the file's too big. I can't figure out how to make it any smaller, and it already looks to me like the quality is compromised -- the pictures are blurry in the smaller file size, and I'd like people to be able to view it in a larger window. Suggestions? Thanks!

    Just because iWeb says your file is too big does mean that you can't use it. It just means that it will take longer to download for the end user.
    The file size selected as being "too big" is arbitrary. It really all depends on the speed of the internet connection used to download the file.
    The best thing to do is publish it and see for yourself if it takes too long to download.
    One of the things you can do is to put a text introduction on the same page for viewers to read while the movie downloads. As long as people have something to hold their attention they will wait a bit longer.

  • How many times can you "Export - Quicktime movie" the same ProRes 422 file until it starts to lose quality?

    Lets say you are done with your project & you want an uncompressed copy of it as your master. If you keep importing it back into Final Cut Pro, & keep exporting (Quicktime movie), will it ever start to lose quality?

    I've never seen a number given, but would think it is very high.
    Apple describes ProRes here:
    About Apple ProRes
    And in that document says:
       "while remaining visually lossless through many generations of decoding and reencoding."
    I don't think I've ever seen degradation caused by recompression or multiple compassion, but as a workflow if you output a master file, then re-import it to add graphics and export that, you would only be 1 generation down from the master file. If you wanted to make multiple versions, you can always go back to, and re-import,  the master file and make the changes, then export, so all you exports stay only 1 generation down from the master file.

  • Can't open Quicktime .mov file (Error -2048)

    I can't open and run an 11mb QuickTime .mov file that was created, I'm pretty sure, on a Mac. I'm using a PC running QuickTime 7.2. Colleagues using PCs with QuickTime 7.0 and 7.1 can't run it either. The guy who created the file apparently has no problem running it on a Mac. My full error measage is "Error -2048: Coundn't open the file because it is not a file that QuickTime understands". Any ideas anyone?

    Ask the guy that made the file what codecs are used in it. Mac users can open, save and edit .wmv files and he may have put one inside a .mov container. It will never play on a PC unless saved as .wmv extension.

  • Can't import Quicktime .mov into iMovie 10

    Is it possible to import a Quicktime movie into iMovie 10?  I used to be able to do this with iMovie 9 but cannot get it to work with 10.  I can drag it into an event but no clips show up.   I can't believe that Apple would require a 3rd party product to get this to work. 
    As a separate rant, you used to be able to edit clips directly in Quicktime but Apple removed this functionality a while back; ie. deleting parts of clips rather than just trimming from the ends.  It is getting tougher and tougher to do basic editing even if you stay within the Apple ecosystem...

    .mov can contain a variety of different movie formats not all of which are importable into iMovie 10.  Try playing it in Quicktime player 10 - does it say it has to convert?   If it converts it, the resultant file should import into iMovie 10 OK.  see: OS X Mavericks: Some files may be converted when opened in QuickTime Player - Apple Support
    In Quicktime 10 the way to do this is to split a movie into clips and trim each clip as required.  These can then be imported into iMovie and joined as part of a project.  See:  QuickTime Player 10.x: Rearrange your movie’s content
    Quicktime 7 Pro (which does allow removing 'middle' parts of a movie) still works in Yosemite

  • Can't view Quicktime Movies on the web

    this is what im trying to view
    http://www.solent.ac.uk/360/hamwic_bedroom.html
    it worked a while back but not now, now i get the light blue logo with the question mark
    cant change file types in preferences they are not greyed out they dont even show as a list, it says programatically set
    i found qtp whatever it was in regedit changed everything to full control
    moved quicktime .xml file onto desktop from apple computer folder
    uninstalled and installed quicktime a few times
    tried with ie8 google chrome and cometbird
    no luck
    quicktime is terrible, i dont know why so many things on the web need it to play, they may as well ask notepad to open the files.
    cheers

    I'm having the exact same problem... Don't know when but IE and Firefox are refusing to play quicktime files. I can run the quicktime player and play MP3 and MOV files (which is what I normally do) but nothing is playing from the browser.
    I've tried pretty much everything I can think of... in the end, QuickTime is not showing up under Set Default Programs or Set Program Associations (via QuickTime Preferences->Browser->MIME Settings or File Types).
    I can install QT-Lite, and everything works for the browser... except now I don't have a standalone player that plays MP3 and MOV files because I cannot have QT-Lite installed alongside QuickTime.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Jason

  • Can I export Quicktime movies with the same quality/compression as DVD

    I would like to export iMovie HD 6 projects as quicktime movies of about the same size, compresson level and quality as I get with iDVD. I would like to watch them on my macbook, but don't want the dvd interface. My attempts have tended to produce something close to full quality that requires too much disk space (10 to 12 G per hour) or tiny, overly compressed videos that only an ipod could love. Does anyone know how to set the custom settings to get this?

    if your projects are Standard (=not HiDef), the iPhone preset in the export options work good for my standards..
    or..
    Export with Quicktime/Options... h264, original res of your project.. ='small' and good looking..

  • Can you import Quicktime movies into Final Cut Pro X

    I have a one week old Macbook Pro retina which replaces my old iMac 24 with Snow Leopard. After my purchase, I found out that Mountain Lion will not support FCE 4. The problem is that I have a lot of unfinished FCE projects and a lot of video clips that were imported using Final Cut Express 4 "Log and transfer" on my external drive. I was going to purchase Final Cut Pro X and edit them on  my new computer but first I was going to convert them to Quicktime videos. So my question is, can I open Ouicktime movies for editing in Final Cut Pro X? Or perhaps someone has aneasier way for me to achieve what I am trying to do.
    Thanks in advance........

    all of the videos that I imported using "Log and transfer" will only open in FCE 4.
    Do you mean the media in the capture scratch folder? These don't open in any other application? Not in the QuickTime player?
    If you mean the FCE project files, that's correct they will only open FCE4 or FCP7.

  • Can't See QuickTime Movies

    On a website I created with Dream Weaver, I can't see the Quicktime movies with Safari, although I can see them with the AOL browser and Firefox. The audio component is fine.
    If I fiddle around with the refresh buttons and the site navigation buttons, I can usually get it work, but not always.
    HELP!

    Your page code only uses the ancient "embed" tag code and you're file will not display on a Windows machine.
    http://developer.apple.com/internet/ieembedprep.html
    That newer page code uses javascript and page code that can be understood by any modern browser and OS.

  • Can't export QuickTime movie correctly! (Only Sound exports!)

    (This is my first post xD)
    Hey guys, so I made an aanimation in flash CS5 and I tried to export it into a Quicktime Movie. But somehow only the music that I importet into the Animation exported so there's no picture when I open the file.
    Any Idea what I could do?

    Any number of things could be wrong. Only the content that is on the timeline will be exported to the video. You can only use a limited range of Actionscript in the timeline. Can you give any more specifics about your file?
