Saving a QT so that it can't be copied

How do you save a QT mov so that it can be viewed, but
not saved by the viewer?

Well, I'm sure that locking it helps, but you should keep in mind that any content that can be viewed can be re-recorded, thereby giving the user an editable copy. whatever locking it used to do (before QT7), will help those people who aren't determined, but anyone who REALLY wants your movie will get it anyway.
I should say too that I've never been very impressed with whatever quicktime does to keep me from downloading the movie. I can almost always get it anyway, EXCEPT when it's a streamed movie, which I haven't come up with a way to record to disk just yet. (that is, a free way... I'm sure there's software I could pay for that would do it.)

  • How do I make and keep a copy of a photo in iPhoto so that I can edit the copy and keep the unedited original?

    How do I make and keep a copy of a photo in iPhoto (version 9.5.1) so that I can edit the copy and keep the unedited original?

    You don't have to. iPhoto does that automatically. Note the command in Photos menu to 'Revert to Original' and the original can be exported at any time using the Export command.
    Longer answer:
    All edits in iPhoto are virtual. The database records your decisions and then applies them to a copy of the original. So your original is untouched. Your edited version is never "fixed" until you export it.

  • How do I access pictures from my iPhone saved in iCloud so that I can delete some of them from iCloud selectively?.

    How do I access pictures from my iPhone saved in iCloud in a computer so that I can see & delete some of them from iCloud to free up the free 5GB?.

    What Mac model do you have? What system version and iPhoto version are you running?  Do you meet these requirements:
    The following is for this Apple document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
    What do I need to use Photo Stream?
    To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
    Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
    PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
    You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
    PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
    Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later
    If you do then sign in to the same iCloud account that's on your iPhone on your Mac via the System/iCloud Preference pane as shown in this screenshot:
    Next setup iPhoto's Photo Stream preference pane as shown in this screenshot:
    The photos on your iPhone must be in it's Photo Stream so make sure the iPhone has enabled Photo Stream as shown below:
    Now you can select a photo in the Photo Stream section of iPhoto and control-click on it to delete it:

  • I have QuickTime Pro 7 on a PC (win xp). I have several QT movies saved on my PC that I can play using QT. I would like to be able to play these movies on my iPad2. I've tried to convert them to iPad format using iTunes but that option doesn't

    I'm trying to figure out how to get QuickTime movies (taken with a video camera) off my pc and onto my iPad2. I can watch the movies on my pc using QT. I bought QT Pro and installed on  my PC to convert the files to a format that iPad supports (like mpeg4). I converting the files to mpeg4 but they didnt play on iPad. Do I need a different video player on iPad than the default video player? Do I need to do something else on the iTunes side?
    Thanks for any help...

    Movie mode
    continuous MPEG-4 video with audio capture/playback
    Movie image resolution
    VGA (640x480 pixels) at 13 fps
    QVGA (320x240 pixels) at 20 fps
    Movie length
    limited by capacity of memory card or 5, 15, 30 second clips
    Movie file format
    Still: JPEG/EXIF v2.2.1; Video: QuickTime MOV (MPEG-4 compression)
    This info is from the Kodak pages.
    My only guess at the error message is the very odd 13 frames per second recording. I don't know what to suggest.

  • Is there a way that I can make my browsing history secure?? Like so no one else who uses my computer can erase it. Or is there a way that I can have it copy to a folder, automatically?

    I would like to make it so that my browsing history cannot be cleared or is saved to another folder automatically. I would like to make it so that you have to have a password to clear the history.

    To save it automatically when you close Firefox you could use the [http://www.pikey.me.uk/mozilla/?addon=bb Bookmark Backup] add-on. That add-on can be used to save bookmarks, history, passwords, cookies, preference files and other user profile data automatically. It saves 7 copies of your user data to a location chosen by you, one for each day of the week.

  • I find that I can no longer copy text to the clipboard.

    Why can I no longer copy text to my clipboard?

    Here is a little more information.  Last week everything worked fine.  I opened the same document yesterday and tried to copy some text to the clipboard and now I get an error message saying "can not copy to clipboard, internal error.  I also find that pdf files from the internet will not load and all I get is a small black x box in the upper left corner of the screen.  Went through the steps in control panel and adobe is enabled.

  • I need a program that i can alter(not copy... read on)

    I am a full time student with a lot of time on my hands.... My assignment calls for me to ".... find a reasonably complex Java program and copy it and get it running. Then modify it as much as you can........."
    This is all good and fine, but wait.........I don't know which program i should borrow. so i am open to suggestions, the original author will be credited within my assignment. I am a first year java student, but i have a working knowledge of basic, C++and Pascal.....

    Let me give you a program that takes in a string which has some items that are comma delimited and then parses the string on the basis of the delimiter, takes out only the non-repeating strings and writes it out.
    This is not a very complex program, but will give you one if you request again.
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to link duplicate objects or artboards so that you can manipulate multiple copies simultaneously?

    Is there a way that I can link copies of an object so that I can manipulate one copy and the others will change also in real time?
    Maybe with artboards? Wondering if there's a way to make a duplicate instance of an artboard that is 'linked' so it changes when I manipulate the original. Like you can do with files and comps in Aftereffects.
    I have a really complicated set of paths that needs to be duplicated in multiple spots throughout a single composition. But I would like to be able to work on them AFTER they've already been placed, and I need each copy to be an exact match.
    any help much appreciated. thanks

    magnificent,
    In addition to what imagecollection said, for some regular repeat patterns you may (also) use Effect>Distort&Transform>Transform with Move and Copies, possibly multiple times with possibly different copy numbers (such as twice for horizontal and vertical), symbol or no symbol.

    My personal choice would be to use MPEG Streamclip (free) with the QT MPEG-2 Playback component ($20) installed to manually convert your files. This does, however, assumed that you cane either download/copy your DVD content directly from the camcorder to your hard drive or can do so from the DVD when inserted into your computer. This, therefore, assumes that you have finalized the DVD (if required) and it is either inserted into the computer or the camcorder is properly connected, powered, and recognized as an external device. In most cases, users forget to "finalize" their DVD and most devices (other than the camcorder itself) will not recognize the content until the disc is properly closed.

  • HT1296 Trying to backup or sync calendar on iPhone to computer so I can have a copy

    The only option for syncing my calendar is to outlook; does not give me the option to sync anywhere else.  No data appears in outlook calendar, though, after syncing and after backup to computer.  How do I transfer calendar to computer so that I can retain a copy and print when needed?  Win 7 on PC.  iPhone 4, ios 5.1.1.

    First you need to copy the entire iTunes folder from the
    old computer to the new one.  You should also make sure
    that anything on the old computer that goes on the iPhone
    is present on the new computer. 
    If it is a Mac, this process is usually pretty easy by using
    Migration Assistant which will transfer all that stuff over to
    the new Mac.
    If you are using a PC, I will defer that to someone else for
    all but the iTunes stuff.  You will do the same thing on the
    PC, that is copy the entire iTunes folder to the new computer.
    Migration assistant is available to move things from a PC,
    but not sure how well that works.
    When openning iTunes for the first time, you will need to hold
    down the Option key on the Maccbook Air and you will
    be presented with a dialog box and you will select open existing
    library and navigate to it.  Failure to do this, will create a default
    library with nothing in it and you will have to move stuff again.
    So if all the data is the same, you should be able to sync
    just fine.

  • I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video.  When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?

    I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video.  When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?  I edit the presentation depending on the audience to which I am presenting.

    If you add a new  slide with just a text box (therefore a very small amount of data),  to an existing presentation then save,  Keynote will only save the new content to the file,  it wont save  pre-existing content as its already included in the file.
    The time  taken to "save" will be very much shorter than a "save as" when all of the existing content is saved again.
