Procedure and Format for emailing a short video clip from iMovie 08

I use one of the new Panasonic HiDef AVCHD digital video cameras. iMovie 08 works great, no complaints there. From time to time I would like to email very short (5-20 second) video clips, rather than putting them up on iWeb, YouTube, etc.
There are so many "sharing" options, and I haven't had much luck with emailing these short clips. Many of the recipients are Windows users, so I'm not sure QuickTime is the answer. What is the best way to email short video clips from iMovie 08?

What is the best way to email short video clips from iMovie 08?
Assuming you and your recipients' mail clients all allow attachments up to 10 MBs, then a 20-second clip can have a combined data rate of up to 500 KB/s (4.0Mbit/s). This means you can use any share/export compressions format option available to you from within iMovie '08. Therefore, the real question becomes, what compression formats can your recipients play. Have you tried asking them to see if there is a single compression format that everyone can play? If no QT compression format is compatible everyone, then you will likely have to perform a secondary conversion to one that will be compatible. H.264/AAC would provide the smallest files for a given level of quality but require QT 7 (or similar multi-media player). MPEG4/AAC would probably be the most compatible format you can export directly from within iMovie '08. (Would have recommended Sorenson 3/IMA but data rate limitation appears to be ignored.) MPEG-1 files can probably be played by everyone but have higher data rate requirements which may restrict files to SD dimensions and require additional software to create external to iMovie '08. DivX or WMV would probably make your Windows users happy but requires Mac users to have a compatible component for viewing in the QT Player.
Try the "Export using QuickTime" Share menu option ("Movie to MPEG-4") settings:
Video
MP4 File Type
MPEG-4 Improved Compressor
Data rate in the range from 1,000 (640x480) to 3800 (near HD dimensions)
Current (or user specified) dimensions
Current Frame Rate
Key Frame every 24 frames
Audio:
AAC-LC Music
Mono
64 Kbps Data Rate
44.1 KHz Sampling Rate
Better Quality

How do I get home video clips from iMovie Mac to iMovie iPad? Surely there is some degree of cross-compatibility? I have a load of clips in iMovie on my MBP that I wanna download to my iPad2 so that I can edit movies on the move. Any ideas?

How do I get home video clips from iMovie Mac to iMovie iPad? Surely there is some degree of cross-compatibility? I have a load of clips in iMovie on my MBP that I wanna download to my iPad2 so that I can edit movies on the move. Any ideas? (The clips are in a .mov format, they have been imported / converted into this format in iMovie, original files were from a JVC camcorder in some other strange format.)

I copied the iTunes file from the external drive and it's in both places. I thought all I would need is the iTunes program (which I downloaded to new computer) and my iTunes library file. There must be something else that's missing. My iTunes library looks the same on the new computer as it does when I open it on the external drive. If I click on an iTunes library song from my new computer, it will only play if I have the external drive plugged in.
My back-up drive is a mess. I have multiple copies of music, video, photo, and document files and I don't know how that happened. ={ Obviously, I don't know how to back up stuff properly and there are back-up files extending over a 6- to 8-year period. I think all I did was just drag and drop the main folders from the back-up drive to the same main folders on the C: drive. Also (and I'm kind of fuzzy on this) Windows used to automatically save music files in a folder within my document files (which makes no sense to me). As my Jewish friends would say, "Oy Vey!"

Slowing down or expanding a video clip in iMovie for iPhone 4

Is there a way to expand a short video clip in iMovie for iPhone 4? I can expand a still image, but not a video clip. I would like to take a video clip that lasts 2 seconds and expand it to 15 seconds or longer. The video clip could be slowed down.
I can do this with still images, so I would think I would be able to do this with video clips. For example, when I insert a still image it defaults to 2 seconds with the ken burns effect. I can then expand or shorten the still image to last as long as I want (from 2 seconds to 10 seconds, for example). However, when I insert a short video clip I am not given that option. When I grab the crop button and try to expand the video clip it stops at the end of the clip.
Any suggestions?

Thanks Joe, hopefully Apple adds this feature to iMovie soon.

Compact video format for emailing

If I want to email someone a short video clip (perhaps just 30s) and don't mind about ropey quality (YouTube quality would be fine), how should I export from an FCE project? (i.e. what settings for the Quicktime export)

The Quick,
1) Export Sequence containing your 30s clip via export conversation.
2) Export conversation using the Format: iPhone settings should get it small enough and decent quality.
3) Email it to your destination.
The Other
2) Format select Quicktime movie and then options and play with the settings to refine it.
If you have DivX pro installed ($$$) on your computer you can specify a size and the quality will be based around that.

How do I get Quicktime to play a short video clip emailed to me?

My daughter emailed me a video clip of our grandson and told me to use Quicktime to view it. I went to Apple Downloads and got the older version of Quicktime required by my Tiger OS. My daughter also has Mac OS 10.4.11. I downloaded the video clip from my daughter's email but it shows up in ITunes and will not play. I even tried opening my Quicktime version before opening the video file, but no go.

It may be that the video is in Microsoft Media Player format:

Tryng to set up Aple ID on wifes iph 6, she's forgotten her password. At iforgot I type in her gmail ID and ask for email but none comes ?

trying to set up Apple ID on wife's new iphone 6, she's forgotten her password. At "iforgot.apple.com" I type in her gmail ID and ask for email but none comes ?

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact Apple ID Support, upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

How do I do use the custom code and format for a percentage with 2 decimals in Report Builder 3.0?

In Report Builder 3.0, I have the following custom code entered:
Public Function SafeDivide(Numerator as String, Denominator as String) as String
Try
If Numerator = “” or Denominator = “” then
Return “-“
End if
If Numerator = “-“ or Denominator = “-“ then
Return “-“
End If
If CDbl(Numerator) =0 or CDbl(Denominator) = 0 then
Return “-“
End if
If IsNothing(Numerator) or IsNothing(Denominator) then
Return "-"
End if
Return Val( ( (CDbl(Numerator) / CDbl(Denominator) )*100 ) )
Catch
Return "-"
End Try
End Function
I call the custom code in the cell with the following equation:
=Code.SafeDivide(sum(Fields!TY_UNITS.Value)-sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value),sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value))
I have the format for the cell set to 0.00%, but it’s not being followed.
I want the result to be formatted as a Percentage, but instead I get values like:
-78.9473684210
80
300
-100
I have the format for the cell set to 0.00%, but it’s not being followed.
How do I do use the custom code and format for a percentage with 2 decimals?

Hi AngP,
After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it. Based on my research, I find this issue is caused by the type of Units_VAR_Percentage cell is string, while the type of CDbl(Parameters!Var_Threshold.Value) is double, so they cannot be
compared.
To fix this issue, we can add a hidden column (Textbox91) next to the Units_VAR_Percentage column, and type =(sum(Fields!TY_UNITS.Value)-sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value)) /sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value) as the expression. Then use the expression below to control the
BackgroundColor:
=iif(iif(reportitems!Units_VAR_Percentage.Value=CStr(format(reportitems!Textbox91.Value,"0.00%")),reportitems!Textbox91.Value,0)>CDbl(Parameters!Var_Threshold.Value),"Yellow","PaleTurquoise")
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong
