Quicktime Movies on published iWeb require right click to start???

I recently added several videos to my iWeb site. While in iWeb, the movies play fine with a normal left-click of the mouse on the play icon below the "movie screen". However, when I publish my site and go to my URL, I along with anyone else accessing my site, have to either double click the "movie screen" to get the movie to play or have to right-click the play icon. So frustrating... has anyone else had this problem? Anyone out there know how to fix it?
The movies are exported from iMovie using the Export with Quicktime feature within iMovie.
Please help!!!!

The movie is overlapping the footer. Go to the Inspector/Page/Layout pane and increase the height of the content of each movie page by 100 pixels, publish and try again.
Click to view full size
You can see the overlap by typing Command+A while viewing the movie page in Safari.

How do I make quicktime movies Fullscreen in iWeb?

How do I make quicktime movies Fullscreen in iWeb? Can anyone help me please?

You have to create a QTL file that opens the QT movie in the player. Based on the settings it opens in Full Screen.

An alternative is to publish your movies to Vimeo and embed the movie in your page. These movies can play full screen.
Or use DivX of Flash Video.

Save as quicktime file so quicktime player can be used after right-click

Hey,
I'm adding short .aiff's to a site for people to right click and save.
-I'm making the .aiff using logic express.
-Bouncing to desktop.
-Changing file to "open using quicktime player" which makes the file look like a quicktime file with the big "Q" on it. When I double click on the file, it opens with quicktime player.
-Creating text box and linking .aiff (actually they are .aifc) file to text box, just regular stuff for creating links for files.
-After I publish site to folder. When I go in and right click on the link to save to desktop, the file I thought used quicktime player becomes an itunes .aiff file with the itunes colors (green) and opens using itunes, thus adding the file to my itunes library.
I'd like people to be able to just open the .aiff and quicktime player would automatically play the file, this way unwanted stuff won't be added to itunes library.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, byt
ps, I've been looking up the difference between .aiff and .aifc. It looks as if they are about the same except you can compress .aifc. Does it really matter which is which if you're not compressing or anything and just clicking and playing?

-After I publish site to folder. When I go in and
right click on the link to save to desktop, the file
I thought used quicktime player becomes an itunes
.aiff file with the itunes colors (green) and opens
using itunes, thus adding the file to my itunes
library.
I think this is a function of how someone's browser is set up or maybe system preferences that associate file types with certain default applications. For instance, you can take the .aiff file on your desktop that is currently associated with iTunes (and has the iTunes icon)....right click on it and select "Open with..." In the opened window select QuickTime player and then check the "Always Open With" box. This will make QuickTime player the default player of .aiff files instead of iTunes. So you see how it is a user defined variable in terms of which application opens which document.
I'd like people to be able to just open the .aiff and
quicktime player would automatically play the file,
this way unwanted stuff won't be added to itunes
library.
An alternative would be to convert your sound files to .mov files that will by system default be opened by QuickTime player directly...just like iTunes is the system default for .aiff sound files.

Cannot not click on menu that appears when i right click my taskbar, as the right click menu dissapears when i move mouse over to the right click menu

PROBLEM: RIGHT CLICK CONTEXT MENU DISAPPEARS WHEN TRYING TO LEFT CLICK AN OPTION
Hi,
Im using Windows 7, and i could always
go down to my TaskBar and Right Click
Icons, and active icons, which would bring up
the standard Right Click Menu list.
PROBLEM
As soon as i moved my Mouse away from
the bottom Window 7 Task Bar to go a couple
of millimeters above to left click an option on
the Context Menu i opened with my right click,
The whole Menu disappears, and this happens in
Firefox version 29.01, other programs in Firefox,
and other such as Skype.
When i was running Firefox 28
i didn't have this problem, can you help me out.
Thank You
Kev Borg

'''PROBLEM'''
'''RIGHT CLICK MENU DISAPPEARS WHEN YOU MOVE YOUR MOUSE TO LEFT CLICK A MENU OPTION ON THE RIGHT CLICKED MENU.'''
''''''YOU CAN'T BECAUSE AS YOU MOVE YOUR MOUSE TO THE MENU YOU JUST RIGHT CLICKED TO OPEN DISAPPEARS BEFORE YOU GET A CHANCE TO LEFT CLICK YOUR CHOICE.''''''
'''SOLUTION'''
'''1]''' GO TO '''CONTROL PANEL''' AND CLICK TO VIEW MENU
'''2] ''' GO TO "'''EASE OF ACCESS CENTRE'''" AT THE TOP.
'''3]''' LEFT CLICK ON MENU ITEM "'''EASE OF ACCESS CENTRE'''"
'''4]''' AFTER YOU LEFT CLICK ON "'''EASE OF ACCESS CENTER'''" IT APPEARS.
'''5]''' LOOK DOWN THE LIST TILL YOU FIND "'''MAKE THE MOUSE EASIER TO USE'''"
'''5]''' THE TOP SECTION SHOWS YOU HOW TO CHANGE YOUR MOUSE COLOURS ETC.
'''6]''' SCROLL DOWN TILL YOU SEE THIS HEADING "'''MAKE IT EASIER TO MANAGE WINDOWS'''"
'''7]''' RIGHT UNDER THAT MENU THERE IS CHECK BOX,
"'''ACTIVATE A WINDOW BY HOVERING OVER IT WITH YOUR MOUSE"
'''8] MAKE SURE THERE IS NOT A TICK IN THAT OPTION BOX, IF THERE IS UN TICK IT AND APPLY AND CLICK OK TO SAVE.
And now you should have No More Problems with your Right Click Menu disappearing when you move your mouse over to the menu to left click a menu item on that right clicked menu.
SOLUTION FIXES PROBLEM.
Thank You and i hope this answer my help any other people who have had this frustrating problem.
cheers KiwiKev

How many times can you "Export - Quicktime movie" the same ProRes 422 file until it starts to lose quality?

Lets say you are done with your project & you want an uncompressed copy of it as your master. If you keep importing it back into Final Cut Pro, & keep exporting (Quicktime movie), will it ever start to lose quality?

I've never seen a number given, but would think it is very high.
Apple describes ProRes here:
About Apple ProRes
And in that document says:
"while remaining visually lossless through many generations of decoding and reencoding."
I don't think I've ever seen degradation caused by recompression or multiple compassion, but as a workflow if you output a master file, then re-import it to add graphics and export that, you would only be 1 generation down from the master file. If you wanted to make multiple versions, you can always go back to, and re-import, the master file and make the changes, then export, so all you exports stay only 1 generation down from the master file.

Movie Clip loading buttons require double clicking on the first attempt

I have created a number of buttons that load move clips into
an empty movie clip. The problem is that it takes several clicks to
activate the first clip button then the buttons behave as they are
supposed to and load properly. Is there a reason why the first time
you must click several times to activate the button loading a movie
clip?

Curruption of Quicktime .mov & MPEG4 in iWeb

I have for a couple of days now in vain tried to replace RapidWeaver with iWeb (1.0.0/1.01).
The main purpose of my page is to present QT movies.
Using Transmit I was initially successful in posting (not using .mac) all five movies.
However, having pushed the "Stop" button during an update rendered two of the movies unreadable. In spite of having replaced the original documents for each one of them (even changing names), those two remained inaccessible.
Interfering a second time with an updating process, resulted in all movies going corrupt (by the time, the original two had been removed altogether). Leaving me with no choice but to return to the more stable RapidWeaver.
Is there anything a total amateur like me can do about this?
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

I solved the problem by simply removing Safari and using an other browser. I'll have to remove the sentence on my webpages that advises people to use Safari.

Opening Videos from Left Menu Requires Right Click

I have multiple Windows 7 computers with iTunes installed. I have noticed that whan trying to open videos from the left menu, the only way to get it working is to wight click on the mouse, left clicking does not work. Does anyone know anything about this and how to resolve it?

I encountered the same problem. A quicker workaround then restarting firefox is to just minimize and maximize. Don't know why but that works.

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

Unable to Sync Quicktime Movie Clips with IPOD

I am a new ipod user having difficulty syncing Quicktime movie clips to IPOD.
Clips are saved as .mov files and Itunes will play.
However I cannot get them to sync woth IPOD.
Any ideas - Do I need to convert to annother format?

First you need to import your movies into iTunes. Do this by opening iTunes <File> <Import> <Movies> then choose the movie you want to put on your iPod. Make sure the movie has .mov at the end otherwise it won't be set up the way it's supposed to be.
Once the movie is imported into iTunes right click on it so a pull down menu appears. Click on <Convert Selection for iPod/iPhone>. It should begin converting it on its own and when it's done you'll hear the typical sound that happens after importing a cd, telling you the operation is complete.
After it's converted, you will have 2 identical movies in your menu. If you <Get Info> on each, you should be able to see which is newest version; that is the movie you are going to want to sync.
Then plug your iPod in to iTunes, go to the movie tab in iPod summary and check off the converted movies you want to sync to your iPod. Press <Sync> and that should add your movies to your iPod.
Hope this helps.

How to enable right-click in Captivate 6

When right-clicked, shows the following error:
Error: Error #1502: A script has executed for longer than the default timeout period of 15 seconds.
    at com.adobe.captivate.main::rdButton$/doRightClick()
    at Function/http://adobe.com/AS3/2006/builtin::apply()
    at flash.external::ExternalInterface$/_callIn()
    at Function/<anonymous>()

Are you launching the SWF via the HTML file or just double-clicking on the SWF?
For right click to work you need the following:
Turn OFF Accessibility in Preferences
Add a click box somewhere in the movie with Right Click set as the event to trigger some action.
Publish to HTML/SWF and make sure the JS file is also present in the output folder.
Set the publish folder location as a trusted location in Flash Global Security.
Test publish and your right click should now work.

Quicktime movies are not playing in a particular website

Quicktime movies are not displaying on the catalogue pages of the Science Photo Library website - one url below - but they are displaying on their demo movie pages.
We're running Firefox 3.6.6 on XP Pro SP2 with the QT 7.6.6 plugin. The Library have tried this but say it's working for them; we have two machines here that can't see these catalogue movies.
When clicking one of the icons to launch a preview movie, the QT either shows a question mark, but which is unclickable, or is white. In the latter case you can click the playhead, but it doesn't start the movie. Also, if you right click these, you get the options you would see if you don't have QT Pro installed, ie. the Save options have 'Pro' in front of them. We do have Pro licenses.
We also have the VLC player and plugin installed. Disabling that in Firefox makes no difference though.
Thanks.
Julian.

Hello Julian.
You probably need to contact Apple for support on QuickTime. And maybe the site's owner... This isn't likely to be a Firefox problem.

How do I change a Quicktime poster frame in iweb?

I have a quicktime movie on my iweb page that starts in black. I set a different poster frame in quicktime but it still displays as black until you play it in iweb and when it's published.
Is there a way to change this poster frame in iweb so that it doesn't display a black frame before you play it?
I guess I could edit one frame at the very beginning of the original movie but I would rather not have to do it that way.

seen this thread?
