Slideshowplays great on my mac but not in other computers

I made a couple of slideshows with iphoto 09, with ken burns effect, then export them as .mov. they play great in my mac with QT. then if I copy them to a CD and then to a PC, when QT plays them, they play at slower speed and freeze for a few msecs. when the camera effect zooms in in the picture, it seems more like jerking frame by frame rather than smooth zooming or moving. QT version on PC is 7.6.2.

The obvious questions that strike me include is the PC powerful enough, how much RAM does it have? Video RAM? But there are so many variables there that you really need to post on a PC forum.

USB disk connected to TC shows on one Mac, but not the other

Hi guys!
The Time Capsule works just great! I'm running it bridged in my existing network, with WiFi turned off.
And the USB disk shows fine on my Mac, but not on my colleagues' Mac. TC shows on both. What am I missing here?
The USB disk will serve as "file server" and will be backed up onto TC together with the macs.
Update: Whoa - now it suddenly shows up on both machines. Go figure.

Encrypted message on one Mac, but not the other, from same server

I run Mail.app on two Macs, both getting mail off the same Exchange server. Multiple times in the last few weeks, a message will download to one Mac and be fine, and then the other Mac will retrieve the message, and it will suddenly be encrypted. Before a bunch of garbled text, something like the following always appears:
--000_25539419161D7744ABC322B480ED5DA507650F7Acmhprdexc04netj
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
If you go to Webmail on the server, the message reads fine. And it is readable on the other Mac. I tried going to View/Message and choosing "next best alternative" but those options are grayed out. Could there be anything else set locally that is making the email unreadable on one machine but not the other? The unreadable version is always on this Mac (a Mac Mini) and not the other one (a MacBook), even though both are running the same OS version and Mail.app version.

QTSS Works on Mac but not the other

I have a Server running OS X Server 10.5.8. I am running QTSS and Apache on this machine, however I am having issues with Quicktime streaming. One mac here is able to successfully stream but all other macs on our network fail to connect despite the QTSS "Connections" window shows the connection to the machine trying to stream the video. In the end on the client Quicktime X shows "Not Found" however I am able to connect to the server via other services (ARD, AFP, HTTP). I can post any logs that might help.
Thanks in advance

I couldn't remember what the Display Preferences had said when we tried this last spring and again in the summer, so tonight we connected it again, and wouldn't you know - it worked just fine. We didn't do anything different, so I have no clue as to why it worked this time but not before. He's thinking about getting his own big display, but didn't want to waste his money if he couldn't get it to work, so now I guess we're shopping for another 23" display - probably a used one. Thanks!

Sending OK w/.mac, but not with other accounts

Every once in a while I am on a network that causes me trouble with sending mail.
I would assume it has to do with a firewall, but I'm guessing.
Recently I added a .mac e-mail account, and this account will send mail from one of my "problem" networks.
All of my other mail accounts give the4 message:
Cannot send using server mail.xxxxxxxxx.com
Use the pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server. All messages will use this server until you quit Mail or change your network settings.
Is there anyway to get a different outgoing mail account to send?
The .mac account will not allow me to send from other accounts using the .mac outgoing mail account.
Thanks,
Luke

It all depends on the policy of whoever is the ISP at each location and the method used by the outgoing (SMTP) server to determine whether you’re a legitimate user. Note that when you’re not at home, the ISP at that location is usually not the same as the ISP when you’re at home.
In an attempt to fight spam, many ISPs restrict the ability to send using an outgoing (SMTP) server not owned by them, usually by blocking port 25 for all traffic outside their own network, which means you cannot send with an SMTP server not owned by them if configured to use that port number. And it may happen the other way around as well, i.e. the outgoing server itself may look at the IP address you’re connecting from and refuse the connection if you’re outside its own network.
Something that often works is changing the outgoing server port to 587 (or whatever alternate port number the outgoing server listens to) instead of 25 and using some form of authentication in Preferences > Accounts > Account Information > Outgoing Mail Server > Server Settings, but two conditions must be satisfied for this change to work: (1) the ISP must not block that port as well AND (2) the outgoing server in question must listen to that port and accept a form of authentication not based on the IP address you’re connecting from.
Independent mail service providers not tied to a particular ISP, such as .Mac and Gmail, do allow authenticated SMTP access on port 587, which is the reason changing the outgoing server port number solves the problem for them if the ISP doesn’t block that port as well.
.Mac doesn’t allow sending from a non-.Mac address, but Gmail does. If you have a Gmail account, you may use Gmail's SMTP server to send from your other mail accounts as well as follows:
1. Log into your Gmail account on the web.
2. Go to Settings > Accounts.
3. Enable the addresses you want to be able to send from, and let Gmail validate them by verifying that you do indeed own them.
4. For each mail account you want to send from using Gmail’s SMTP server, in Mail go to Preferences > Accounts, and choose Gmail’s SMTP server from the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu.

Mail / iCloud rejects password on one mac but not the other

I have just upgraded my MacbookPro and my MacPro from 10.6 to 10.7.
For whatever reason - the MBP works fine and can access all my email accounts, whilst the MP is constantly rejecting the password for iCloud.
My Mobileme account was upgraded to iCloud several months ago and has been in daily use on both macs ever since.
The only difference in the upgrades is that the MBP upgrade was not a clean install, whereas the MP was installed with a clean hard drive and then all apps/data was transfered over.
Disk permissions have been repaired and that has made no difference.
Both macs are on the same network, with the same passwords and same account settings. Any suggestion how i can resolve this problem?
adam

i solved the problem by adding a new mail account to Mail, re-inputting the email address and password, then deleting the old problematic one.
works a treat!

Problem on one mac but not the other

This is an odd issue. I have an imac and macbook in the house. I know about the open ports set up and they are.
On the macbook I can start a video chat just fine, and this is over wireless and on the imac I cannot, this is on gigiabit ethernet.
Would anyone know where I can begin to diagnose this issue,. I tried deleting ichat prefs but this did not help.

Hi Gary
First have you set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.
Also go to sys prefs/sharing and make sure internet sharing is OFF.

Faded signal on one Mac but not the other

I've had my AX for several months and it's been flawless, throughout my apartment. In the past week, my MacPro desktop has had (usually) a very bad signal, while my old G4 iBook continues to have a strong signal wherever it is in the apartment, including sitting on the desk beside the Intel box that can't seem to get (or keep) a strong signal.
If I open the Airport Utility on the MacPro and kind of run it through a few paces (like scanning for AX's), the signal strength on the Pro will sometimes bump up for 30 seconds or so, but it invariably sinks back soon thereafter.
The AX is in the living room (just one wall dividing) plugged in near the TV, which has satellite coming in. I've read that satellite cables can be a problem, but nothing's changed in that setup, to explain the change in performance. And, again, if it's interference, why isn't it affecting the laptop?
Any thoughts appreciated.

No guaranteed advice, just some things to consider, things to try, and things to be aware of:
- The iBook is famous for good AirPort reception because of its plastic case.
- How close is your equipment to other apartments? It may be that a neighbor has acquired something that interferes with your system.
- You might try (a) changing the channel of your AX or (b) engaging "Interference Robustness", although I've seen cases where this latter option did more harm than good.
- Could the AirPort antenna of your Mac Pro have become dislodged?
- Is it possible for you to move your MacPro (temporarily?) so that it's next to the AX so that you can investigate whether this improved the signal strength?

Spotlight on menu bar working on one mac but not on other...

On my father's Mac mini, I can put a file in his home folder and Spotlight on the menu bar will find it. This is not the case for my iBook however, as I have to either re-index my whole drive or search within my home folder using Finder to find my file. I can, however, find any other file outside my drive using the blue icon.
What have I done wrong?
Regards,
Adam

I've fixed it now. I realised that I had changed my home folder so Spotlight got confused. I changed the path in the NetInfo manager and everything's fine, for now...

Why can you run windows on a mac, but not mac on windows

I dont understant why you can run windows on a mac, but not mac on windows. Any help. I would purchase OS X Mountain Lion if you gave me a way.

Microsoft builds software to run on other companies' hardware, pretty much exclusively if you don't count the long line of failed devices: Zune, Windows phone, and now the Surface.
Apple builds hardware. They support that hardware with their own operating system. It is designed to run only on their very tightly integrated hardware. Trying to write software for the plethora of crap being sold would be a failing proposition and would divert resources away from the great software they provide for their hardware customers.
The hardware and software are very well engineered to provide the best possible experience.
If you want to experience a Mac, buy a Mac.

Adobe Muse with Edge Animate components plays great on the Mac but images don't show in Windows. Any suggestions?

I am using CC with both Edge Animate and Muse. After uploading to the website host it plays great on the Mac but images don't appear when I'm using Windows. Any suggestions?

Hi, VelveteenWebDesignGroup-
You're in luck! We just added in a feature to the latest version of Edge Animate CC (3.0) to enable the CDN option for OAM publish (what we call the "Animate Deployment Package"). This means that your Animate compositions can now references jQuery and the Animate runtime from the network instead of from the project directory. (Please note that this will only make sense for Dreamweaver and Muse integration with OAM and won't make sense for InDesign.)
To turn this on, launch Animate and go to File > Publish Settings. Then select the Animate Deployment Package on the left and click "Host runtime files on Adobe CDN." Save and publish, and you should be good to go.
Hope this helps,
-Elaine

ICloud will sync with iCal & contacts on Mac but not iPhone or iPad

I just got a new iMac and set up my calendar and contacts, essentially entering everything from my old exchange server (going away from the PC). My iCloud syncs with the Mac, but every time I try with the iPhone or iPad it constantly is "searching" for the calendar and contacts, draining battery life. I have spent the last two days doing hard resets, wiping clean and doing a system restore for my iPhone and iPad (very frustrating!!) and doing both a system recovery AND installing everything manually. It is worth noting that iCloud worked on my iPhone and iPad BEFORE I set it up with the iMac and software is all up to date. I have also deleted the iCal, exported a copy and rebooted the reset up the iCloud account. Things always seem to work with the Mac, but not the mobile devices. Will apple care even be able to help? This is really frustrating as I have no contacts on my phone....

OKAY FOLKS, I found the answer. I figured the only explination could be with my iCloud Account. I tried EVERYTHING, read every discussion on this topic. It WASN'T b/c I had an old Mobile Me account. It WASN'T b/c I didn't have the sttings right. I rebooted, erased data, EVERYTHING. The only solution was to create a NEW iCloud account - I chose a new address through Apple (me.com). Even though I already have a me.com email address and a different Apple ID I figured starting fresh was the only way. Sadly, I lost all of my calendar data (when I tried to import my old calendar data from a backup it was associated with the old iCloud account and could not be edited) but my contacts were saved. I just re-entered my calendar information... figured this would be less time consuming than trying to reboot and research the issue 10 more hours!
Here are the steps I used:
1- iCloud was OFF on my iPhone to start
2- Export your iCal and iContacts data from your Mac to a backup (you WILL lose your data)
3- On iPhone went to Settings, iCloud and went through the proper steps to set up a new iCloud account with a NEW email address (me.com)
4- On iMac under System Preferences I deleted my OLD iCloud account (it will prompt you stating you will lose your data or you can merge/save). The only way I could get it to work was to accept the warning it was going to delete everything
5- Set up a NEW iCloud account on my Mac with the NEW me.com account I set up on my iPhone. Somehow my Contacts were kept in tact, uploaded to iCloud and to my iPhone. Had issues with my iCal data, but I entered all the information manually.
Everything is syncing great! Haven't set this up yet on my iPad but will do that next. I'm hopeful!!
