Videos off the Net

I recently got a new iPod Video. I would like to take little clips that I find on the net and are saved on my computer and put them on it. I am able to get the files onto my desktop, but when I go to import them into my Library, it says that the file isnt properly exported. How do you actually export a file? I have this problem with ripped DVD files as well.
Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Play the videos on your computer. What program do they play in?

Is there a way to CAPTURE audio/video off the net then run it m.m. prsntn

I'm fairly new to the mac genre. In windows we had apps like Camtasia to
capture audio/video off the net. I was hoping something like that would
be avail for the mac and then once capture it how would I edit it and
include it in a presentation software; for example, keynote?
Is there added hardware req'd (?Capture board)? what would be a good software mac
compatible?

I'd like to capture audio and video for example sometimes just need to capture the
audio if some instruction is coming say over a quicktime or media player for my work.
Then sometimes I need to capture the audio and video when they ware actually showing me
charts and explaining them things like that.
is snap Z the way to go then for quality and fair pricing to get good results.
Do we have any resident applications already on the ilife variety that could be utilized for
something like this or is the only way to go through a 3rd party vendor?

How can I download a video from the net? is there is any special download softwear than realplayer?

There are a variety of file formats for storing and sending video. You will probably want to install VLC, which handles most open formats. RealPlayer is used on their proprietary format.

Getting old site off the 'net without appropriate files. (to start over with same domain name)

As a complete novice, I'm not even sure how to start this question...but, I have tried everything and I think I have "lost" my website in terms of bringing in back into DW and changing/updating it. My backup files on my computer have disappeared and the appropriate files through my cPanel to bring it back to in order make changes aren't there. The website still functions, but it is outdated for my business needs.
So, at this point, my question is this; how can I gain control over the domain and start over from scratch. I don't want what is out there anymore, but without control through the above mentioned devices, is it even possible to build a new website and get the old one off the 'net as it is and still keep the original www.name.com?
I'm clueless at this point. Thanks.

I was successful with what JTANNA suggested, but I don't know what I'm doing with a mirrored site in terms of what my needs are. I am not against changing the domain name and just leaving this one out there, though I did put a great deal of time into building it. I would take some further help if anyone has more suggestions, but I'm about ready to move one.
Thanks for trying to help.
You will need to sort out the FTP issues because when you have edited your site, you will need to upload it and so FTP details will be required.
Your first port-of-call to sort this out is to contact your host who can reset the password for you so that you can start all over again. The alternative, is to give your password/login details to Murray (PRIVATELY) so that he can try from his machine. When this is done, you can always change the password for your own security.

Won't work shooting in 60P format. But will work fine in the others. I use the built in card reader in my Mac and it shows up fine in iMovie.

Quicktime Pro and getting videos off the web

I am bound and determined to get videos off the web and use them to make my own videos and what not. I was wondering if quicktime pro is the best program to use for my project. I have downloaded other programs that don't work and I am sick of the hassle. If there is a sure thing program anyone knows about, I'd love to know. Otherwise, it would be great to hear about quicktime pro and it's adeptness or otherwise at successfully getting videos off the web.

Okay I figured out how to do that, but once it is downloaded, I am still having trouble. I don't know which application to use to open the file. Quicktime won't open it because it says it's not a movie file. I downloaded a standalone player and that couldn't open it either. What do I do?

Videos from the net won't play; plug in's enabled, latest Flash player installed; everything works fine on Safaril; even replaced Firefox by Aurorar, the same.

Earlier everything worked fine, I'm not aware of any change, e.g. in preferences. Now, if I try starting a video from the net (e.g. Youtube) I get either message: update Flash player, or enable plug in; both are in order, and work fine on Safari. I cleared cache and cookies, tried even to uninstall Firefox and download Aurora in vain. I use Windows 7 Ultimate and AVG Internet Security, the very same as earlier when Firefox played these videos perfectly.

Hi, is it the website itself or just that particular game? Does either one work when using Internet Explorer?
Using FF(Firefox) go to the plug-ins and look for the SWF vs 10.0.45.2 plug-in and make sure it is Enabled.
Do you use Ad-Block in FF?, if so try Disabling it and then check if this makes a difference.
Thanks,

I downloaded iWork off the net and need to transfer it to my MacBook air. How do I do this?

I downloaded iWork off the net and need to transfer it to my MacBook air. How do I do this?

How did you download iWork off the internet? Was it from the app store or somewhere else? What device did you download it to? If an iDevice, such as iPad, it is not the same version as used by Mac OS X devices such as your MacBook. If that is the case, you need to purchase the Mac OS X version.
If you downloaded the Mac OS X version to one machine and want it on your MB now, go to the Mac app store and click on purchases and download to the MB.

Getting Albums & Large Videos off the iPhone

I tried to get help from this community to solve my problem only to end up handling it myself.
I am not without knowledge however, granted the one thing I cannot post here is the iTunes
system file code that prevents having to erase & sync the iPhone. Which I should add if you
do this (erase & sync) it would appear to only delete your music, but thats "as far as I know".
So to the gifts I bring to this place.. iPhone Explorer & why your transfers fail epicly.
Google the "iPhone Explorer" because you will need it, go ahead say you've used it an failed.
However before you dismiss my advice did you remember to....... UNDO YOUR IPHONE ENCRYPTION?!
Yes.. it would seem that using this application is DEPENDANT on wither you have encrypted your
iPhone thru iTunes. This is the only way to browse the pictures directory an copy ALL the folders
out onto your PC. I repeat, phone to pc, pics from your phone onto your PC.
What about the large videos you might ask.. WELL.. this applies to windows users ONLY.
go into the directory below, make sure to change your name where I've written "your name here"
otherwise you'll just be told the directory doesn't exist.
C:\Documents and Settings\YOUR NAME HERE\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
I will say it again, "your name here" refers to your windows user name!
Now once in this directory you'll see a folder or maybe more than 1, this depends on how many people
use your iTunes an back up their iPhones onto your pc.
Oh but wait, your going to say I never mentioned you had to backup your iPhone thru iTunes
in order for this to work, an just maybe your on someone elses pc an you've never backed up
your stuff here before an your worried it'll tell you some crap about "erasing & syncing".
Well relax.. armageddon isn't upon you yet. Still use the backup function an go to the directory
as mentioned, why? because! when you view the files by list & detail you'll be able to sort the entire
folder by file "SIZE" this should help narrow down (quite fast) which of these scribble scrabble named
files might be your "impossibru" to xfer video file(s).
If you've got issues getting smaller 5min or less video files off your iPhone this will still work but your
going to have to try to guess harder which file it might be.
Once you've located the possible file, copy it over somewhere else you won't lose it, for the sake of
all things.. DON'T mess with the original in the backup folder!! just COPY it outside.
Once you've got the file(s) outside, if you haven't turned on/off "file name extensions" so that the
.exe/.txt/.jpg an such show on all files, you'll notice the files I had you copy have no extensions!
Just rename the file to whatever you want it to be like test.mov an it should open just fine provided
you've got ALL the proper codecs for viewing video files (yes this matters an even if you think your
pc is just friggin awesome you could still be missing the right one or an updated version of the codec
you need most for this). Also you'll want a decent video viewing program to go along with the proper
codecs. For your aid I've supplied the url's of such things for you below.
Codecs: http://www.codecguide.com/download_mega.htm (Get the "mega" version, don't argue with me).
Video Viewing: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (I don't care who your pc tech is an what they said either, just use it).
You will have to reboot once you install these 2 things, it would also be advised your copy of windows
is legit an fully updated. You also might want to look into "CCleaner" if your brave enough to handle
cleaning your own pc's temp files just to be on the safe side, it's registry cleaner is verified by me
to do a decent job but hey, use it at your own risk as the cleaner isn't a required step to make this
all work.
Anyhow with this you've got your large video files & your 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc albums off the iPhone finally by now.
Enjoy renaming the pics as you'll spend alot of time folder diving but hey it's worth not losing it all right??
PS: It helps to move all the pics out of all the new folders into one folder, hence the above statement.
PEACE! an to all you "hipsters" who said it couldn't be done, you KNOW what I wanna say >.>

The method you suggest is how I have been doing it, everything copies over easily except the two large files.
I wonder if there is a fix for that coming? I want the files, but it looks as if I can't delete them either, I can't move them in anyway, or open them in anything but the photo app.

I'm trying to find a app that will download video off the web like realplayer or orbit

Does anyone know if its a App that will download video's off the web like realplayer or Orbit?

Never heard of Orbit. As far as I know RealPlayer streams but doesn't download video (and audio). So are you looking for another streaming app or one that actually downloads the video file? And what kind of video? For example, you can download flash video from sites like youtube with many flash video downloads. There are many youtube flash downloaders. Just search macupdate.com for them. FWIW, a somewhat more general flash downloader is Jaksta. Use the macupdate link I provide to Jaksta and look at near the bottom of the page for related apps.

I can only text through ordinary message when not connected to the internet to someone, but when I am connected, it is automatically assumed as iMessage. How will I text ordinarily without turning off the net? Thank you!

I am from the Philippines btw. What I meant is, I cannot text someone ordinarily when the net is turned on, and it assumes to be texting through iMessage. How will I text someone without turning off the internet in an ordinary way, not in iMessage? Thank you.

I Tried that already, but if i turned it off, I cannot send an imessage to people I want to text through imessage. There are people in my contacts that when I text, it is automatically as text message, while there are some that when I text, it is through iMessage automatically, and I just want through text message also. And for the latter, I still need to turn off the wifi in my phone for them to be texted through iMessage, which is more hassle.
