Problems viewing saved quicktime movies on other computers

Currently using windows vista, When I save a movie file using quicktime I can not view it on other computers using other windows operating systems. Just get a blank screen

The other computers must have QuickTime version 7 installed to view your files.

Problems viewing 1080i/60 .mov files

I am having problems viewing 1080i/60 .mov files. When I open the file, it shows all white. I have exported some HD footage shot on my HVX 200. I am using FCP 5.0.4. I also have created some animated clips from Vue 6 Infinite and it does the same thing.
I have Quicktime Pro 7.1.5
does anyone have any suggestions on what to do, or what I need to download in order to have this work?
Thanks

Export from Final Cut using the Apple Intermediate codec to view in QuickTime.
You've probably exported using an HDV codec only used by Final Cut.

Install OPlayer HD and enable the QuickTime plugin to play your movies.

Saving quicktime movies from internet

i used to be able to choose file,save as & whatever quicktime movie i had viewed & chose to save would end up in the proper place. now, i go through all the same steps & the movie/file gets saved but when i try & open i get an ALERT:
QuickTime cannot open the file: "01.mpeg"
it is not a file that QuickTime understands (-2048).
is there an easy way to save movies from the web anymore?

i didnt need it before. i think it all changed the last QT update i ran. HELP feature said to ckick down button on player, did that & yeah, it looks like it leads me to a purchasing link. thanks for your time. i guess all i can do is save as a bookmark & wait for it to load when i want it.

Saving Quicktime Movies

Still ,as was in safari 4 beta, no option to save quicktime movies you must do so by opening up activity window.

http://progressive.stream.aol.com/aol/us/highspeed/extratv/ellen/mono/daily_dl.m ov
The URL is in the source of the frame in which the movie is playing.
If you are in Safari then View menu > View Source and search for "frame" until you find one that seems reasonable (it was the second one on this page.) The frame source shows as <iframe src="video/videoload.html?=mono/daily"
So I changed the current URL in the browser window from:
<a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://ellen.warnerbros.com/galleries/video.html
To:
http://ellen.warnerbros.com/galleries/video/videoload.html
And loaded that page... the movie appeared. I then viewed the source of the current page (could have control-clicked in the frame to View Frame Source) and saw the URL for the movie which was...
<EMBED SRC="http://progressive.stream.aol.com/aol/us/highspeed/extratv/ellen/'delineate2(text)'_dl.mov" Then you only have to figure out what delineate2(text) is.
Paste the final movie URL into Safari's download window and the video will be downloaded.
Firefox has a Page Info feature that shows the url of the embedded media.

I can't view any Quicktime movies from a drive that was uploaded by a Mac

I have a drive with approx 250 GBs of Quicktime movies that I need to edit. The movies were uploaded onto the drive by a Mac running Quicktime 7.1.3 Pro. This is the same version of Quicktime I am running. When I try to view the movies or import them in AVID Liquid or Express Pro, I can hear the audio, but the screen remains black. I have tried to convert the files in AVIs, MPEGs, and AVID files to no avail. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? What seems so strange to me is that I can't even view them.
BYW: I am able to access the contents of the drive because I am running Mac Drive.

Pick one of the files and open it using QuickTime Player. Open the Movie Info window (Control-i) and note the video codec used.
Not all codecs are compatible with Mac's and PC's. If it was rendered using a Mac only video codec you'll need to have the Mac export the files again using a cross platform codec.

Viewing iWeb Quicktime movies on PC

Greetings,
I've posted several Quicktime movies on my iWeb site and am getting reports from most of the PC users who've tried to view them that the movies won't open. I know that Quicktime 3 or later is needed. Is there any other advice I could give PC users toward viewing these movies?
Thanks!
BnB

Yes, Quicktime 3 is wayyyyyyy outdated.
Post a hyperlink on your web page with this link
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html
add hyperlinks on you site in iweb easily by highlighting your text-
then menu>
insert>
hyperlink>
webpage>
the inspector will open on the right hand side of your screen
first drop down menu should say link to "external page"
second input your full web page link in the next text box
repeat as needed.
Good Luck

Saving Quicktime Movies in Keynote

I'm using a 1GZ Power PC G4, with 768 ram, Keynote 3.02. When I insert a Quicktime movie into a Keynote theme (however short), it plays fine, but when I try to save it, Keynote crashes -- everytime! Any suggestions will be most appreciated.

You can have two movies playing simultaneously, either side by side or one on top of the other.

Problems with a QuickTime movie file. Error 2048 message

I am having problems with a QuickTime file.
The file is on a TDK 4GB pen drive.
I can access the file without problem directly from the pen drive.
I am using a Sony VAIO Laptop running Windows 7.
QuickTime version 7.71.80.42.
When I transfer the file to a folder or upload to send via e-mail on Hotmail and then try to open it I receive an Error 2048 message - "Couldn't open the file.......because it is not a file that QuickTime understands.
Any help would be appreciated.

You should be fine: a standard DVD can contain up to 120 minutes of video, but this includes menus etc.
iDVD is not concerned with file sizes, just length. It will automatically compress the iMovie file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2 - which is 4.7GB for 120 minutes!
I have once made a family DVD 115 minutes long, but after the family either protested or fell asleep, I have tried to keep them under 75 minutes!

Layer Styles Not Saving for Use on Other Computers

I've been trying over and over for the last 6 hours to get the layer styles I save in my custom pallet to work on other computers. I mean, I have a bunch of pallets from other sources and somehow they achieved a way of being able to save theirs, now why can't I do it on mine?
So, here's the story of what I've done. I have a Text layer, I've added a list of FX to it via the Layer Styles menu. Now I save the document. I open up a new document and copy/paste the FX onto a new Text layer in another document window. It works great.
Then, I save the layer styles for use later, but no. When I do everything exactly the same way, my Layer Style that I saved has lost all it coordinates of shadows and stroke widths, bevels, you name it, it's screwed up. Now I've tried this so far on CS4 and CS5, 3 different computers. All 3 computers have different settings for how Photoshop is set up, so I know it's NOT my settings alone. Though, it keeps the colors and custom gradients how they are, everything is bonkers.
I'm ready to stop trusting in Photoshop to be there for me when I need it...or punch a hole in the wall. Whichever comes first.
I need help for this as soon as possible, for I have an assignment I need this for.
Running: Windows 7 64
Adobe Photoshop CS4 & CS5.

Seems to me you left out the most critical piece of information, that is, HOW did you save the layer style for later use ?
You might read this tutorial to see if you did it correctly.

Saving quicktime movies onto iphone

i apologize if this has been discussed before...
how do i get my quicktime movies (from digital cameras, movie clips, internet clips, etc...) onto my iphone? do they have to be in mpeg4 format first, then drag them over to 'movies' on itunes, which will then sync with the iphone?
if that's the case, then how do i, for example, save an .avi file as an mpg4 file?
it would be nice to be able to see your own movies (not just the ones you buy on itunes) on your iphone...
thanks!

Assuming your movies can open in Quicktime, go to the 'File' menu and choose 'Export.' In there, click on the drop-down menu next to 'Export' and choose 'Movie to iPod' and click on 'Save.'
Once the movie is fully exported, drag the exported movie into iTunes. From there, you can sync it with your iPhone.

General error saving QuickTime movie for DVD

I have been trying to save my Final Cut Express project into QuickTime Movie so I can put it on a DVD- it gets 30% (about 12 minutes) through the Writing Audio and Video portion when a window pops up that says General Error. I don't know if this is a computer error, FCE error, QT error or what. I tried a bunch of obvious easy fixes that didn't work. It has done it 4 or 5 times over a few days. Suggestions?

...I do have still pics- what is a size that I can use? Will fce change the size or do I have to use another application?...
Hi(Bonjour)!
FCE will not resize stills.
So using a large one (say 4000 X 2600 pixels, common for 12 meg still camera) involves a lot of calculation for FCE to fit the size of timeline. If you don't need a such size for some Ken Burn stuff or pan or zooming, stay with smaller size like 720x480 (the size of DV NTSC format) or 1920X1440 for HD.
You can use Photoshop or even preview applications do resize your stills.

Saving Quicktime movies "as read only"

I want to create an animation portfolio composed of quiktime movies and place it in my public folder but I don't want to save them as "read only" so they only be viewed and not saved or downloaded to anohter computer. Is this possible?

Your thread title seems inconsistent with the content of your message. in any case, it is very difficult to make movies totally secure from download, as a screen-capture utility like SnapzPro can even grab streamed content.

Viewing embeded quicktime movies in the player?

Is it possible to view a movie that's embeded on a webpage in the Quicktime Player instead, therefore allowing the viewer to watch the movie at a different size?

Its the browser, not the web-page or file that decides how to handle files of any particular type. Safari does not allow the user to configure it to a great extent (and insists on using the QuickTime Plug-in even if it isn't installed...) but other browsers do.
If you use Firefox ( http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ ) the first time you go directly to the url of any mov file, ( paste in the URL of this mov file for instance: http://images.apple.com/macbookpro/gallery/images/macbook48001122006.mov ) and a window will appear. ( see http://wings.buffalo.edu/computing/documentation/mac/Sorted%20Images/norton10/no rton10_01.jpg )
If you then choose to "Save to Disk" and "Do this automatically for files like this one from now on" a Download action is created in Firefox's preferences.
To view or change the Download action:
Menu bar > Firefox > Preferences > Downloads > View & Edit Actions
Select the "MOV" action.
Click "Change Action"
Select whatever you wish - save to disk, open with a plug-in (QuickTime Plug-in for instance), open with the default application or pick any application with which to open this type of file.
Click "Ok"
