Problem going between wide screen/full screen

I have a widescreen movie edited in iMovie. It contains a ton of files, so I wanted to make it into a quicktime movie (it runs slow with too many files). I dropped the quicktime movie into iMovie in a widescreen formatted project and it came in with black bars on the sides. I dont know what to do! I have the auto adkust/crop/blackbar thing off but it still does it!

Clifton, I just tried to force iMovie HD to export
clips from a widescreen project to QuickTime, then
import them to a widescreen project. No luck at all
exporting as DV streams. When re-imported to iMovie,
they always arrive pillarboxed. It's as if iMovie HD
doesn't recognize the widescreen format no matter how
you create the DV stream in QuickTime. (I tried
exporting the DV as 16:9, adjusting the window size,
lots of things.)
It doesn't even work to import the widescreen
Timeline.mov from a widescreen project! iMovie HD
pillarboxes its own reference movie!
You beutys!
One saving me from irritating everybody again with questions about this thing!
The other handing me the answer on a silver platter, I am lucky!
However I am not going to redo my small clips this time,I am using them as a extra in my new dvd as "bloopers" it gives my movie a new dimension....
This movie is only 13 min long and also includes a slideshow made in iphoto then xported to fullquality. Murphys law say it will probably crash during multiplexing or encoding!!!!!? That can happen when you get lucky.

Mov to avi program, sound video import sync problem CS4, creating wide screen

I am using Premiere Pro CS4. I have edited for years on and off, most often I am on set. I just need to set this up right to work.
I have mov footage, and used Pazera to convert it to avi. It does not look right. Here are my convert questions.
1. is Pazera an ok convert program, or do you have another free, non watermark, high quality program you recommend..?
2. What is the best convert video and audio to use. Right now I have it as auto and it was awful.
3. As well I want to use a 1 to 1 ratio or lose the least info, yet it does not seem too have it. It does have, "copy original video stream" is that 1:1...? otherwise it has xvid, divx, mpeg4, wmv...
4. what is best to put for resolution, it has HD1080, HD720 HD489, and a bunch of others
1. When I did make a test avi and imported it into Premiere Pro, it does not play properly. The audio runs in realtime and the video skips forward out of sync by about 10x faster. Yet when I play the file in media player, it plays normal. Is this a setting within Premiere Pro, a problem with importing, or the original footage..?
1. As well, I have some footage with a frigin time code burn window at the bottom, and may want to grab some footage. Is there a way to wide screen the image and cut out the bottom time code, if yes, let me know step by step...

Mouse Problem Moving Between Dual Screens

This is a strange one that started this morning: I have two screens, and the mouse does not move normally into the adjoining screen during the usual speed and motion. To get to the other screen, I have to move the mouse extremely fast. It's very weird, almost like I have to break though into the other side.
Has anyone else had this problem or can offer a suggestion?
Many thanks for your help in advance.

Hi inknpaper,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
You sound very knowledgeable about using multiple displays already with your Apple computer. Have you checked the arrangement of the displays in Displays preferences? I would suggest taking a look at those preferences and making sure they are set to how you had originally configured them. You can use the following article as a reference.

Shuffle problem going between 2000 and XP?

I recently got my girlfriend a shuffle and it worked fine with my computer, which is running 2000 and has the latest iTunes updates and iPod updater. The only problem I have on my computer using her Shuffle or my Nano is the amount of songs I can transfer at once (which is usually 20, 10 on shuffle).
Anyway, I'm not sure if Shuffle was the latest version out of the box or not, but it didn't need updating from my computer, unless it was automatic. She took it home to try it on her computer (running XP) and iTunes wanted to format it. I gave her the updates off the site (since she doesn't have internet) and told her to try them since I didn't think it was needed. She tried that and it still managed to screw it up. So I had her restore it and that worked, but she decided after she got it to work to plug it back in again to play with the songs and it had to be restored again and then restored a few more times after that.
So I was wondering if there was anything I can do to fix it, like uninstall everything that deals with iPod and install the version that came with Shuffle then reinstall the new version over it along with the updater? Take it away because she's apparently bad with technology and have her only deal with my computer for updating her song list? Or was there another way to make it so she won't be restoring shuffle everytime she changes computers? Since I figure it should be compatible enough to go between different versions of windows with different versions of iTunes and still work with no problems.
Windows 2000

That's probably it, since she didn't have any of the music because it was with me. From what I remember, she went around that, and used restore after she backed up all the music. But from what I remember it takes no time at all to a few minutes to restore my Nano, but the Shuffle doesn't have a screen to tell you what's going on (and I find the updater is unreliable with info sometimes).
She has told me she did the same thing about 20 times before it started to work. So she must've been restoring and thinking 'this isn't doing anything' and ripped it out and eventually gave up and let it do it's thing.
But I'll have to deal with it next time when she tries to sync it up with my iTunes, so maybe it won't be a big problem this time around.

How to switch to full screen faster and change between applications in full screen faster

Hi, my problem is that when I switch any application to full screen it does a little animation which spends a little time before getting to the full screen mode. The other problem is that when I change between applications in full screen mode it also does a little animation!
How can I eliminate those annoying ways of losing time?
I hope and thank very much your answers!

sure man, after all the help i got, why not give some in return...
to make it full screen on oppening i put this code on the 1st frame:
fscommand("fullscreen", "true")
i also make 2 buttons for making the screen smaller and bigger again, for both i used the following
on (release) {
fscommand("fullscreen", "false")
this is for making it smaller, and for full screen i used "true" instead of "false"
of course i added a button foe exit with the follownig code:
on (release) {
fscommand("quit")
hope i helped...

Dv wide screen pal problem

I’m tying to make some titles in live type.
The project settings in fcp are pal wide screen. I’m making an in and out point in the time line and then exporting by going file export QuickTime movie. The movie is a reference file.
I’ve opened live type and tried place or place background movie but this is where it seems to go wrong.
The clip looks like is 4:3 and looks squashed. When I look in the project settings its not the same as final cut.
In the settings I have the following choice for pal
ccir 601 pal 5:4
ccir 601 pal sq. 4:3
The project in fcp is pal dv anamorphic. Do I need to change these setting to be correct in live type or do I ignore them?
I’ve tried typing in 720x576 and for pixel aspect ratio 1.46. The canvas changes size but the video clip doesn’t. I have to select the clip and and click stretch to canvas. Is all of this normal or am I doing something wrong?

How can I switch between apps without going to home screen?

Is there anyway to switch between apps with one tap? (ie. without going to home screen first). Kind of like a command-tab feature.
Steve

Well, you can have one app that you can get to with a double push of the home button (set in settings which you want), but I think it's only your contacts list, or your ipod app. Still useful though.

19 inch wide screen monitor problem

My daughter has my old 450MHz G3 (10.3.9). We bought her a 19 inch wide screen monitor for Christmas. I hooked it up for her and booted the machine. Everything came up fine although the monitor resolution was set to a somewhat funky resolution of 1350? x something, I don't remember exactly. I set it to the monitor's native resolution of 1440 x 900 thru the display preferences and it took that fine.
My daughter shut down the machine that night and when she booted it the next morning, the monitor displays the message "No Input Signal" (or something to the effect). I haven't had a chance to get over there and look at it yet, but the only idea I have to fix the problem offhand is to reset the machine's PRAM.
I'm puzzled that after initially hooking the monitor up the machine had no trouble feeding it a signal, but after a shutdown and reboot, it has a problem. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them.
B & W G3 450MHz Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I zapped the PRAM on the machine and it booted up fine. The monitor's display was set to 1440 x 900 when it finished booting. I found this a bit mysterious, as I figured zapping the PRAM would reset it to the resolution it had when I first hooked it up.
To test things, I shut the computer down and rebooted it. Once again, the monitor gave the "No Input Signal" message and remained off. So I restarted the computer and did the PRAM zap again and it once again came up fine w/the resolution at 1440 x 900.
I told my daughter to have the machine go to sleep rather than shut it down and I set the energy saver preference to do so. She's had no problems since I did that, but I'd really like to know why shutting the machine down is causing the resolution confusion.
Jeff replied to this thread suggesting to really fix the problem I may need to get a graphics card that natively supports the 1440 x 900 resolution. I've thought of that possibility, but it's not very attractive since, unless I could find a cheap used card, I'd probably have to spend about as much for a card as I could sell the machine for.

I recently updated Firefox and when I did the screen displays the sites in the centre of the screen and in very small text. I have a newer monitor with a wide screen. How do I go about fixing this problem?

I have a new computer with a wide screen. Before I updated the web sites would fit the width of the screen, now that I've updated the web sites only display in the centre of the screen and they appear squished.

I'm using iOS 7.04 on my iPhone and basically can't use it. The screen is going crazy. I type and special characters show up. I have to hit send more than once (it grays out, then hit again) then it sends. I type words in text or email and it backspaces and deletes my entire message. I tap an application and it starts wiggling to delete. I've reboot several times. I'm looking at restoring, but that is a pain in the arse (it's my work phone). I'm nervous it will not restore properly.
I have iOS 7.03 on iPad and have no issues.

Bought a new monitor.. wide screen 23"... Firefox is not filling the full window. IE works fine but I prefer Firefox. What do I need to do to fill entire window, not just the way it was with the old monitor?

Most pages are defined to be a certain size, regardless of how large or small your monitor is. You can use Firefox's zoom feature (View menu) to enlarge the text and images (or just the text, if you prefer) on a page.
In addition to making individual site adjustments, there are some add-ons that will default every site to a higher zoom level. For example, check out:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965/ Default FullZoom Level]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]
Does that help?

Thanks for the straightforwardness roaminggnome - I wasn't sure if this problem qualified as deseving a reset. Unfortunately, for some reason I can't explain, your response remained undisclosed to me for a while, the next reply after yours took preference and I ended up doing as Meg St.Clair's susgested and initiated download, installation and syncing of Smartsync which is now taking ages to finish... If problem persists shall do the resetting and restoring.

Wide screen pc monitor problem

For instance, on ebay, when I add specifications, the go or enter button doesn't show because it's a pop up screen so there's no way to scroll down. Or, when trying to submit on an order form, the submit button doesn't show and can't scroll down. I hate wide screen pc monitors, but I'm stuck with it. Anybody know how to fix this problem? If I zoom out on ebay, that doesn't work either.

You should be fine but if you want to be safe Newer Technology sells a stand for about $40

Play Video full wide screen for E90??

Hi,
Is there any software that can convert any videos files to play full wide screen in E90??Many thanks!!
E90 Communicator V 07.40.1.2!!

Any video you stretch to the full width of the E90 will be distorted, as the screen aspect ratio is not 4:3 or 16:9 which is what videos typically use.
In any case, you can try a converter like SUPER: http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER/

Unable to get HD Wide Screen 16:9 to fill the screen on TV.

12/20/08
Problem: I am not able to get HD Wide Screen 16:9 to fill the screen on TV. Leaves dark bands on the top and bottom of picture.
What I'm working with: Mac Pro Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors with 2GB Memory soon to be 6GB & 30 inch screen. QuickTime Pro 7.5.5, Final Cut Express 4.0.1, and iDVD, 7.0.2.
New JVC, GZ-HD3U camcorder with QuickTime conversion software, recently updated, provided by JVC with the camera to change native TOD. files created in the camcorder to native MPEG2 files in Quicktime at a size of 1920 x 1080.
Two TV's, one Wide Screen HD and the other standard screen. I have changed the TV aspect rations back and forth from 4:3 to 16:9 and the only thing that changes is the size of the black bands on the top and bottom of the screen. The black spaces are larger in 16:9, making the picture appear squeezed.
I am using RW DVD discs so I can continue to try different setups without wasting discs and so far I have tried about 12 different arrangements. Two methods work but they are export conversions to a 4:3 aspect ratio and 720X480DV/DVCPRO-NTSC. Certainly this is a work around, but doing this looses the Wide Screen HD effects provided by the original JVC movies.
When I import the clips, and I've tried a number of different imports from QuickTime to Final Cut Express, I make sure that the Sequence set up matches or comes as close as possible to the imported clips. I've tried exporting them from FCE without changes and I have exported them using QuickTime to change them to different formats using nearly everything available trying to get the clips or sequences ready to import to iDVD.
In iDVD I have set up using both aspect ratios and it appears as thought setting up in 16:9 makes the spaces above and below even larger on TV. In fact it creates these spaces above and below even on the 720X480DV/DVCPRO-NTSC clips that work just fine on the 4:3 aspect ratio settings on the same TV.
If anyone has overcome this problem, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. So far, I've spent over a 100 hours on it to no avail.
Larry

Tom, I don't know where to go in FCE to create a AVCHD AIC Sequence. I can find the
1920X1080i60 in the Sequence format without any problem. And in QT don't know where to select AIC but I select Apple Intermediate Codec, and under compressor I select HDV 1080i interlaced frame rate 29.97. Under Export Size Settings I don't know rather to select 1920 x 1080 HD or HD 1920 x 1080 16:9 and what about preserve aspect ratio using and Deinterlace Source Video?
Part two: When I create a Sequence in FCE with the 1920X1080i60 designation, and then import a QT HD 1920X1080 16:9 Intermediate Codec clip into a bin and then open the clip in that sequence I'm asked if I want to match the clip to the sequence and if I don't I have rendering. If I match them the rendering, as you said, goes away. However, I notice that when I check out the Item Properties on them after the above process, the Aspect ratio in the clip and Sequence, suddenly becomes HD 1440x1080. Is this normal?
