QuickTime movie/slide show attached to emails

I regularly send email information to my clients. How do I make a QuickTime movie (15-20 seconds) or short slide show that can be attached to the emails without being such a large file that it is blocked at the other end and/or takes forever to send?
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

If you limit the frame size to 320x240 and the FPS to 12 or so you should be able to use H264 or mpeg-4 encodng and keep the file size below 2 megs for the duration you mention. Most email accounts should be able to receive that file size.

You don't.
Slideshows are exported as movies and these are very large files. Email is not an appropriate medium for very large files as they can cause immense issues for the receiver.
Better to share some other way.

Re-Toast DVD - is it the same as IDVD - That is can you burn a number of .mov slide shows on the same disk? Thank you

Toast can author and burn video DVDs but it's not nearly as versatile as iDVD is in creating video DVDs. Toast can only create one menu so all items must be on it, i.e. no sub-menus, no animated menus, etc.

I have a photo PDF slide show in an email. How do I get the photos into my camera roll on iPad ?

I have a photo slide show PDF file in an email. How to I transfer the photos in my camera roll on my iPad?

Well I guess you can press cmd + shift + 3 to take a picture of your whole screen or cmd + shift + 4 to take a picture of a selected area, that will create a file called "screen shot yyyy-mm-dd at hh:mm:ss.jpg" on your desktop then you just select those files and drag them into iPhoto.

My quicktime movies are showing up as completely black

Some of my quicktime movies, made quite a while ago, are all of a sudden showing up black on my MacBook Pro. They used to play perfectly on this same computer, it seems to be a very recent change. But when I went back to an early backup on Time Machine, they were still black. I tried copying one to another computer, an iMac, and there they played perfectly. Has there been a change to the system or to the Quicktime player that would cause this?

Interesting! Thanks for posting the link, QT Kirk.
I don't have any Motion JPEG files to test. But I just looked in my Lion version and I can no longer chooose Motion JPEG as a video codec export option in QuickTime Player 7.6.6 Pro.
I just created and tested MJPEG A and B files (MPEG Streamclip still accesses the Apple Motion JPEG A/B export codecs) in both QT X.1 and QT 7.6.6 under Lion. Both still play on my system even though the QT 7 Pro export option is no longer available as stated above. Looks like "the handwriting is on the wall" even if the codecs are still supported (at least partially) at this time.

Quicktime Movies Not showing as Events

I recently upgraded from a PowerBook G4 running iMovie '06 to a PowerBook Pro running iMovie '11. When I used to finish a project in '06 I converted it to Quicktime with no compression and stored it on an external hard drive, since I had only 80 gigs on my internal drive. I then trashed the original project, figuring I could always restore it by dragging in the QT movie. When I received my new MBP I put all movies from the external on the internal, since I had plenty of space. Unfortunately the QT Movies do not show up as events in iMovie '11. What gives?
Also some of the listings in the events have a "!" over them. What does that mean?

If you are loading your Shockwave movie into a browser from your local HDD (instead of having the page served from the web) then you need to have a folder named "dswmedia" somewhere in the path for external files to load. Check the help docs.

Email recipient shows attachment to email, but I didn't send one

Strange story here and I need some help so it doesn't happen again.
My boyfriend sent an email to a realtor accidentially using my email account instead of his. It was a simple written inquiry. The realtor replied that he was confused, not only because the email was sent by me, who he doesn't know, but there was an attachment photo in it of a local politician. He contacted that person who had no idea why I would be emailing him her picture.
When he didn't hear back, by boyfriend emailed him again, this time with his own account. This is when he found out that this had happened.
I have the sent email. There is no attachment in it. I looked at the headers and full source and no attachment. So how did this happen?
Any ideas? I don't want it to ha

My message cut off there. What I was writing is that I don't want this to happen again. And thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Stefani

Small Quicktime movies & music show as 'Q' icons - take FOREVER to load

I have a site - joelplimmer.com (I created a re-direct - it's my iWeb .Mac site really) and the Quicktime content is taking forever to load - it USED to load fairly quickly - I have gone into 'package contents' in my 'domain' file in application support and looked at which files are too large - strangely, most are < 10 meg, but many of those are ones that take forever to load. I've minimized some of the larger files I had on the site - still no luck on .Mac (it looks fine when I publish to a folder, of course). So, I tried deleting EVERYTHING in my joelplimmer.com folder on my iDisk and re-publishing from scratch, STILL the same thing. I have tried this from different computers, both Mac & PC - with the same result. Does anyone know what could be the problem?

Of course it takes ages to load.
4 movies on a page, 6 audio files on a page, I lost count. I left before the encore.
Most problems are not technical.
Just using your brain will solve them. Try it.

HOW DO I UNITE MOVIE & SLIDE SHOW AS PLAY MOVIE {IDVD}

PLEASE HELP ME
BY THE WAY IT IS AN IDVD

You can do this in two ways:
1. Drop your movie into the slideshow area either before or after your slideshow photos. When you click on Play All, your movie and slideshow will play as a single movie.
See Old Toad's picture of where to drop the slides and movies:
http://homepage.mac.com/toad.hall/.Pictures/Forum/iDVD8movieSS.png
2.You could also put the movie and photos into an iMovie and then it would play as a single movie. You could put a chapter marker to denote the beginning of the slideshow so that the viewer would be able to choose 'Scene Selection' to choose the slideshow. If you want, you could change that text to read 'Play Slideshow'

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 view quicktime movies in email anymore?

Before the 2.0 updates, I could easily view quicktime movies sent to me via email. Ever since the 2.0 update, it says it's not able to play the movie. Why is this? And what do I need to do to fix it?
Thank you.

Thank you Quicktime Kirk, That worked. I just have one other question. I dragged the plugin to my desktop as you directed, but should I now toss it? or, uh, what?
Thank you again,
Cake boy

How do I make a slide show for a Mac that is not a video file?

I made a .mov slide show at "Display Quality" using iPhoto on my Mac Mini 2011 and it was 334 MB file size. When I made a similar show using Photodex ProShow Gold on my Windows PC (Windows executable file) it was only 14 MB and of equal quality (actually slightly higher resolution). I beleive the differnce in file size is because iPhoto is exporting a movie while ProShow is not. Is there any way to get the file size of a Mac slide show to a resonable size, yet retaining the quality one can get on a Windows PC? I would like to place the slide show on my web-site.

iPhoto lets you export as a webpage. This will create a webpage based slideshow of all the selected photos you can upload to your website.

I cannot import a Quicktime file (.mov) which I generated from a slide show out of iPhoto8 in iMovie8 (filename is grey); what did I wrong?

iMovie 08 will only import files that contain codecs that it can edit. It will generally import audio and video codecs that iPhoto generates. However, if your iPhoto slideshow contains a manual advance track, iMovie cannot edit this and therefore will not import. In iPhoto, check to see if you can do a timed advance rather than a manual advance. Then it should import.

Can easily turn a folder full of pics into a QT Movie.
Hopefully QT Gurus will drop in here, but there is a QuickTime forum that may bring better results...
