PPTx Movies created in Mavericks/PPT 2011 fail in windows ppt 2010

I have created PowerPoint presentations on my iMac mavericks 10.9.4 using PowerPoint 2011 14.4.3.  I have used, on different attempts, both embedded and linked files in .MOV, .AVI. and .MP4 formats.  All of these play just great on my Mac using PPT 2011.
The problem comes when I take this same presentation to a Windows version PPT 2010 (fully updated bot OS and Office) with Quicktime installed.  None of these versions will open the movie, regardless of which method (Embed or Link) was used with any of the three format videos.  They all come up that Quicktime will not play the movie.  These same movies will play fine in the Windows machine if I just click directly on the movie file.  It is the exact same video file that the PPT presentation is linked to.
I have a presentation that has to go out to multiple users on DVD and I do not know which computer, Apple of PC, they will use to view it.  I have also created a Keynote presentation of the same file for those who have Apples but not PPT 2011 on their system.
What is the secret to making one presentation which includes video files that will successfully play on both Apple and PC systems?
My fall back position is to create a DVD using iDVD so that they can view things on either system using VLC or or their regular DVD player but the resolution suffers a bit when I do this (older analog TVs are the norm) for the viewers.

Hello
I have been having this exact same problem for the last 2 weeks. As a trainer it's proving completely disastrous and frustrating as I don't run windows & so don't have another option!
I have reinstalled the software and it made no difference and spent an hour in the Apple store on Saturday trying to resolve the problem with no joy.
Any help or advice would be gratefully received. It must be an issue with the most recent software update?

  • Ref Movie created on Mac won't play on Windows machine

    I created a Ref Movie on a Mac. Copied Ref Movie and full movie to a WinPC. Got -2048 error. Could view full movie. Also, Ref Movie file size was reported as 0k on WinPC.
    Used WinPC to access and run both movies from the Mac. Same problems.
    Created Ref Movie on WinPC, copied both to Mac. Mac played the both just fine. However, Mac reported file size of the Ref Movie as 0K.
    Can I created Ref Movies on a Mac that can be used on a WinPC (I realize full movie has to also be available on WinPC)?

    Turns out the problem is file system related. When OSX copies a file to a Win machine, it also creates a hidden file with additional information. It my case, OSX is creating the following two files on my WinPC:
    MyRefMovie.mov
    ._MyRefMovie.mov (a hidden file on a Windows machine)
    The application I use to create the ref movie seems to generate my problem, because it is putting the ref movie data into the hidden file, not the unhidden file. Apple's MakeRefMovie utility puts the information into the unhidden file. The behavior of creating hidden files is part of OSX (though there is a utility called BlueHarvest that can control it), but what goes into the files seems to be an application level issue. Hope this helps others who have the problem.

  • Microsoft Office 2011 fails to work on new iMac

    I received my new iMac in mid December, and I used the Migration Assistant to move everything. Unsurprisingly, MS Office failed to work. I paid MS another $12 so I could download a new copy of MS Office 2011 and tried installing it. Installation succeeded, but every time I opened a Word or Excel file, it crashed.
    I deleted Office from both iMacs, old and new, including all of the MS files hidden everywhere. Reinstalled but the same thing happens. Deleted everything, including the downloaded disk image, downloaded it again, and reinstalled.
    Same result--crash!
    I have no idea what to try next. My wife is beginning to doubt my technical expertise. I've tried to mollify her with OpenOffice and Pages, but she is getting frustrated and angry.
    Any ideas on what to try? Please save my marriage!

    Your original post states:
    I deleted Office from both iMacs, old and new, including all of the MS files hidden everywhere.
    I have no idea what files you have deleted, and what files have been left behind, you have no guarantee that you deleted every single file from the thousands of files Office installs, a single preference file left on your machine is enough to cause Office to fail.
    As you  made a serious  error in using Migration to use Office on a new machine, I did not take as absolute certainty you  made a proper and complete uninstall of Office.
    If you need Office to work quickly, your option now is to clean install your Mac; 
    back up your work files
    erase the hard drivereinstall the operating system
    install Office correctly
    You will be up and running in 2 hours.

  • Creating Replica in Yosemite is Failing

    Hello all,
    I have two Yosemite Servers both running 10.10.  I have an OD master running fine for all of my clients.  I'd like to replicate that OD master.  This is what I get in the logs when attempting to create the replica as it fails with a generic error of checking my network settings.  Any help would be great.  I've checked all DNS and  forward and reverse works for both servers.

    I'm still having trouble getting this replica created.
    This is what I see on the OD Master side when I go to add the replica the other way.
    The soon to be replica is a fresh install and the certificate looks to be good to me.
    I took a suggestion and made sure I did an SSH connection between the two hosts and accepted the Keys.  Still nothing.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • "Booting from Boot Camp Assistant created USB Drive...Failed to load BOOTMGR"

    Hi Apple Ppl of the Wrld: I need help I been working on installing windows 8 on my Mac.
    Spec of equipment:
    Mac Book Pro Mid 2012
    Bootcamp Version: Version 5.0.4 (473)
    Bootable USB Flash Drive: Type Scan disk 4 GB windows 8 pro iso image but without the driver and the 2nd Scan disk USB flash drive with 32 GB with the Bootcamp Drivers downloaded and saved to this drive.
    Please Note: I also have the original back up installation disc for Microsoft 8 Prof 64 from Microsoft where I purchased it from.
    1st Bootcamp is not recognizing the Original Microsoft 8 Pro backup disk from microsoft itself.
    Solution: I created the New Image from the Original Microsoft installed disc in my desk top and changed the extension to .ISO then burned the ISO image into the newly purchased DVD+R. Then I ran Bootcamp Once again and it get the following error message "The installer disc could not be found -- Insert your Windows installer disc and wait a few seconds for the disc to be recognized. Solution
    2: Created a bootable usb drive with bootcamp assistant successfully with bootcamp. Yes I close, ejected or un-mounted any image that was open or had been previously used then i restarted the Mac. Next, I start the bootcamp assistant tool once again then i get the same insert your windows installer disc message. 
    3: Then I try to resolve the installer disc not found issue: this are the steps i took: a). Lauch disc utilities
        1. Selected the top most drive 750 GB Macintosh HDD
        2. On the right you’ll see 5 tab buttons: First Aid | Erase | Partition | RAID | Restore.
        3. Choose Partition. Then I clicked + to add another partition size of the partition was 222 GB
        4. Change the Name of the Partition to BOOTCAMP
        5. Change the Format to MS-DOS (FAT)
        6. Click Apply to save the changes and then reboot your Mac and we’ll begin Windows installation.
        7. During reboot, press and hold the alt/Option key and you’ll be presented with drives to boot from.
        8. Use the arrow keys and return button to select the Windows yellow USB key drive containing your Windows 8 installation files.
        9. This will begin the Windows install. --> then i get the following message: "Booting from Boot Camp Assistant created USB Drive...Failed to load BOOTMGR".
    4: Take the Mac to best buy and let them resolve the issue and charge me like a million dollars for it :'( since i have no other idea who to get this bootcamp working at all. This has been a terribly lengthy issue and it is not as simple as it is claimed to be since i started with the Original Windows Disc Purchased from Microsoft and I have the Optical disc drive which it should be simpler from what I understand.
    Please can you help It would be of great help.
    <Email Edited by Host>

    from what i understand you are trying to install win 8 pro from a "backup disk" the one that you purchased from microsoft.
    this will not work, it is not an installer disk.
    you need to start the process again. erase the partition you made on your hdd. in disc utility click the minus button after selecting the bootcamp partition, then manually drag the divider down fully then apply.
    next, erase your usb then format it.
    download win 8 iso from here;
    http://getintopc.com/softwares/operating-systems/download-windows-8-pro/
    it is perfectly legal to use your purchased product key in this install.
    in bootcamp select the iso image you just downloaded, select your preferred partition size, check all 3 options.
    you have the support software on another usb but you wont need it so it can be discarded. the install will work far better with the iso and support on the same drive.

  • Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted.  Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file?  Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb again?

    Creating a Mavericks USB boot drive after the horse has bolted.  Can I create a bootable USB drive from my iMac after installing Mavericks without saving the Install OS X Mavericks.app file?  Do I need to re- download the whole 5.29 Gb from the App Store again?  My problem is my 4Gb/month allowance on a 12 month contract.  I cannot purchase a data block from my ISP and although my speed is theoretically slowed to 64k after reaching my 4Gb, it actually ceases to download in reality.

    HI tasclix, it depends what you mean by an OS X boot drive.
    If you want a recovery disk from which you can reinstall (by re-downloading) or recover from a time machine backup, then nbar is correct.
    If, however, you want to boot and run the OS X installer from the USB drive (so that you don't need to download again), then you will need a copy of "Install OS X  Mavericks.app"; see this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5856
    Before downloading again, search your system to see if the installer is still there - it's usually in the /Applications folder unless it has been deleted, but check your whole system for it anyway, you never know, you might still have it somewhere.

  • Failed while creating virtual Ethernet switch. Failed to connect Ethernet switch port

    Hello Folks
    I am completely stuck with the configuration of my virtual networks. I have one logical switch left to add to one of my Hyper-V 2012 R2 hosts when I started getting the error below when I try to add logical switches to either Hyper-V Host. I have been using
    the document. 'Hybrid Cloud with NVGRE (Cloud OS)' to implement the virtual networking. Basically using the exact configuration that is in the document. I have added the PA Logical Network and the Network adapters and added the logical switch for it to my
    hyper-v 2012 R2 host and everything was fine. I am now trying to add my ISCSI Logical Switch to the host and this is the error I get. My other Hyper-V host I get this error for any logical switch I am trying to add. Can someone help me with this error. I haven't
    been able to find any information about it.
    Also a some quick info on tracing an error like this so I can figure out what is causing it.
    Thsi is my configuration so far
    So as far as I know everything is peachy untill the error below. Dead stop now
    Error (12700)

    notice your GUID?  you may want to consider ensuring that is the same GUID associated in your database.  Sometimes during data corruption theres a smidge of a chance your sql database kind of either pulls old guids esp if this was reverted to snapshot
    without it being powered off etc.  
    I would try that first.  then i would consider if you get to configure that with your current liscense associated with the host.  I would need way more info to help any further

  • Boot Camp For Lion -- USB ISO Method --"Booting from Boot Camp Assistant created USB Drive...Failed to load BOOTMGR"

    Hello, has anyone had experience with dealing with this speciifc problem?
    In short, upon rebooting, I am getting a black screen with a line of text that says, "Booting from Boot Camp Assistant created USB Drive...Failed to load BOOTMGR." Nothing happens after that.
    I am using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4. I have an ISO of Windows 7 Prof. along with an 8GB usb drive. I changed the coding in my bootcamp program to allow for the normally first invisible option that allows creation of a USB Installation program using an ISO that is normally only for computers without an optical drive.
    I have that box checked, the check for new software box, and the install windows box checked. I went through the process of creating the USB, downloading the software, and partitioning the drive. Then on restart, I get the failed to load bootmgr error.
    Some people have suggested using two usb drives for this. I am trying that method but it does not seem to help thus far.
    Can anyone offer any help?
    Thanks.

  • War file created in Eclipse works, but fails when created by Ant

    Hi,
    I am having trouble getting my flex war file to work when I create it using Ant, even though the same war works fine when I create it from my Eclipse Export War function. This is a critical problem and any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    I have a working installation of LCDS running under JBoss 4.0.5 (in a CENTOS (Red Hat) environment). I have implemented a datatier in Java to interact with my PostgreSQL 8.x database. The Java code, plus the necessary flex jars and xml files and some mxml test programs, are all in an Eclipse J2EE project that I created from the flex samples.war file. It all works fine when I use Eclipse to create a WAR from the project and deploy it in JBoss. My problem is this: When I create a WAR piece by piece using Ant, then deploy it to JBoss, that WAR does not work. The error I get is this:
    javax.servlet.ServletException: Invalid Configuration: see previous failures. flex.webtier.util.ServiceUtil.setupFlexService(ServiceUtil.java:55) flex.webtier.server.j2ee.MxmlServlet.init(MxmlServlet.java:57), etc.
    When I look at the log I see this problem:
    "You have more than one version of 'org.apache.commons.logging.Log' visible, which is not allowed.",
    but that error is in the server log even when I use the good WAR file.
    I have compared the two wars but cannot find any substantial difference between them.
    Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried enabling debug level logging and removing the category filters in services-config.xml? It should show all the destinations being created, and if any are failing. To get the maximum level of log detail, something like this should work:
    ><logging>
    >
    > <target class="flex.messaging.log.ConsoleTarget" level="Debug">
    >
    > <properties>
    >
    > <prefix>[Flex] </prefix>
    >
    > <includeDate>false</includeDate>
    >
    > <includeTime>false</includeTime>
    >
    > <includeLevel>false</includeLevel>
    >
    > <includeCategory>false</includeCategory>
    >
    > </properties>
    >
    > </target>
    >
    > </logging>
    Have a check that your remoting destinations are shown starting correctly for both WAR files, and see if there are any messages in the log that might be relevant.

    If i am using 11G andrtp is 11g but on rtp side if they configure SSL, is it mandatory to do it from our side also?No it not mandatory to enable SSL at your end however you have to configure identity and trsut at your end.
    Any update on my regular question(The main forum question)?You mentioned that you are posting message from 10g to 11g and as per log you are sending it to URL - https://dev-nog.server:443/b2b/transportServlet
    So few things which I see as a problem are-
    1. You should use URL https://hostname:soa_server_ssl_port/b2b/httpReceiver instead of https://dev-nog.server:443/b2b/transportServlet
    2. SOA server SSL port should be enabled (SSL should be enabled on SOA server)
    3. You should configure wallet at 10g side to contain trust cert of 11g server
