Volume of song changes when I export movie.

I imported a couple songs to play in the background of my movie. The original 100% volumes were too loud for both of the songs so I turned the volumes down to about 60% using the volume sliders below the audio tracks. But when I exported my movie (I tried both Quicktime web and full quality dvd) the volume of the songs in the background seemed to be playing at full 100% volume again. Is there an "apply volume change" button that I'm not seeing or something?

Hi into...
I don't have access to iM4 anymore... but as far as I remember: you have a slider for "iMovie" AND you have another one for adjusting the level of a CLIP. so, you need to select an audio clip, THEN apply any volume changes...
sliding the slider under the main view window lowers the playback in iM, but not of the clip....
... or do I misunderstand something completely???

Does original change when I export it to Quicktime?

When I export my movie to quicktime (to burn it to a dvd) does that change anything about the original, including how and where to find it (as I always did: by clicking the icon on my desktop)?

No - it has no effect whatsoever on either the original captured footage or what is in your project.
It can do no harm.

Font color changes when I export to pdf

I'm using Pages 08 still, and I'm creating newsletters, should be simple enough. But when I export to pdf, there are portions of the text that change color. For example, I have white text and a brown background, and for some reason the text changes to black. The Pages document still shows it as white, it only happens with the exported pdf document. I triend deleting the brown background layer, re-exported, but the font color still changes. Thoughts?

You have not said what version of Pages '08 you are using nor what version of OSX.
For problems like these usually simply updating both Pages '08 and the version of OSX to the latest versions, fixes the problem. That does not mean upgrading to Pages '09 or OSX 10.8.2, just the latest of those you have installed.
Failing that you need to look at what color model your text is. Stick to the cmyk that OSX's pdfs use and avoid rgb which is screen color.

My font changes when I export to pdf, not on every page but only a few pages

I am using the font Helvetica, light in my iBook. It looks the same on every page in iBooks Author, but when I export it to PDF some of the pages look like they are written with font Helvetica bold. Can anyone suggest a fix? Thank you

A number of threads dealing with issue have been posted over the past two weeks or so, I suggest a search may help you and also check out the More Like This column on the right.

Report Format completely changes when I export to TXT (plain)

Help!
I finally figured out how to make my details flow "continuously" rather than being "stacked" in a column
(section expert: details: Format with Multiple Columns)
so on the Report, it looks just as I need it to be. BUT when I export, it comes up in columns again!!
How can I make my export formatting match what I'm viewing? Its a pretty simple report... but I'm stumped again.
thank you!!

When you are exporting it into TXT (Plain) how many characters per inch are you using?? I created my own interface as well and I used a page size of 8.5x11 but fit in 400 characters by using a font size of 2. For exporting into plain TXT, I use 53 characters per inch.
Play with that number and by trial and error you will get it all in one line again.

How do i set the spalsh image when i export movie?

I am exporting a movie that will be posted on vimeo. when i upload it, the default "splash image" that appears is some random blur. I would like a specific shot from my movie be the "splash image" that appears as the preview for the movie.
How do i set this? i tried putting a single frame in front of the movie and that didnt work. I would def appreciate any insight into this.
Thank you so much.

It is called a thumbnail image and is set by either youtube or vimeo. in vimeo, go to the video settings and change the thumbnail preview.

After copying a file from NTFS to HFS volume, file size changed when viewing in Windows

Hi guys,
I have a Mac Air running Mavericks on a HFS partition and Windows 7 on a BOOTCAMP NTFS partition. I have some files that I want to read/write from/to both systems. Since OS X can't write NTFS and Windows can't write HFS either, and I don't want to use any 3rd-party tools/drivers, I have to adopt a "stupid" way: in OS X, I copy those files from NTFS to its HFS partition, make changes, then switch to Windows and sync them back to NTFS.
The problem is, after I copied a file from NTFS to HFS in OS X, it seemed ok. But when I switched to Windows, the very copied file in HFS partition had its size changed (bigger) although I didn't make any changes to it in OS X yet. This happens to almost every file I copied, text and binary. For those text files, I tried to open it with EditPlus in Windows and EditPlus reports the correct size on the status bar.
How could this happen?

I am not sure if this is what your seeing but...
The same unaltered file on two different volumes might use different amounts of disk space. This is because a 'disk' is divided in to 'blocks' and a block (also historically known as a 'sector') is a certain minimum size. So if disk-1 has a block size of 512 bytes and disk-2 has a block size of 1024 bytes then a file containing just 10 bytes will use up twice as much space on disk-2 as disk-1 even though it is the exact same file.
Beyond that, Macs can add additional information like Spotlight tags, labels, icons, etc. which make a file bigger. If you are modifying a file then presumably that also implies adding additional content e.g. for a Word document more text and this will make it bigger. Also depending on some programs are configured or designed 'deleting' text may only mark it as deleted and not really delete. This can apply to older versions of Word which has a 'Fast Save' feature, new versions have removed this and do a proper delete.
You would have to give more details like what you are doing to the document, what kind of document, and what the two sizes are.
Finally, there is one other potential difference, some systems and manufacturers use 1024 as a unit for measuring file and disk sizes, some use 1000. It will be the same number of bytes in each case but 1000 bytes in one case would exactly equal 1MB, and in the other it would be 0.9765MB.

Poor image when I export movie from FCE

When I play my movies created in FCE with Quicktime player the quality is very low. I've used .mp4 and .mov as my source video imported into FCE and saw no difference in quality after exporting. How do I improve my quality?

.mp4 is not supported in FCE without rendering. .mov mans nothing at all. A 160x120 file in Cinepak can be .mov. Please give exact information on the original source media, the format you're working in within FCE, and exactly how you are exporting. Also make sure the QT player is set to high quality playback. BTW, what versions of the various software are you using?

Song changes when iPod orientation changes

Hoping someone can help me fix this issue. For some reason when I turn my iPod on its side the song I'm listening to will suddenly change. The display changes to a list of album covers and I need to straighten my iPod and press the Menu button and then Play to start the song again. Is there a way to "lock" a setting so when the iPod's orientation changes it doesn't start playing another song or switch to a display of album covers?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Kyle,
A shot in the dark, but have you checked to make sure you don't have the *Shake to Shuffle* option enabled on the iPod? To check, head to *Settings > Playback*, choose Shake, and then make sure you have it set to Off.

Margins change when I export in Adobe Acrobat 8.0?

I put together a magazine in InDesign and then exported to PDF. In Acrobat, I exported again so I could impose the file for the printer. Everything worked wonderfully EXCEPT the margins for the left side of the left page moved in, and the margin for the right side of the left page moved right, so the coil binding is going right through text and graphics. The right page is fine, no problems with margins. HELP! Of course, I need this solved yesterday...

Exporting .Mov files at 24fps for Final Cut Pro 5

I work at an animation production house and we're trying to export .mov files from QT 7.1.2 at 24fps so they won't have to be rendered in a FCP project which is a 720p project with a frame size of 1280x720, we're experimenting with two codecs. We're using Motion Jpeg A and Photo Jpeg, selecting 24fps but for some reason they import into FCP 5 at 10fps. It's as though QT isn't outputting accurate 24fps .mov files. When I export .mov files from FCP they import back into FCP without having to be rendered. What's the difference between the ones exported from QT vs. the .mov files exported from FCP. We're using the exact same settings and files....? The reason we need to use QT to do this is because it needs to be a somewhat automated process (lots of stills to work with) and our PA's are working on Windows with QT only.

You should post your inquiry at Final Cut Pro section for better support. Anyway, Final Cut Pro does not always recognize the frame rate correctly, depending on which application (and possibly which codec) you used to compress video. For example, Snapz Pro X and Adobe After Effects don't get along with Final Cut Pro in this respect. Furthermore, compressing video in H.264 will be a bad idea. So simply adjust the size of Canvas so that it won't cover the whole screen. In this way, you can even replay video on Canvas and even send it for final production.

My volume changes when songs change on 4S

This has been happening for a while now on my iPhone 4S i got in January. It started a few months ago. I'll change a song or when the song changes, the volume will be noticeably different. It seems it goes louder when I click to the right for the next song but when I click to the left for the previous song it gets quieter. What causes this and how can I fix it?

Font changes when exporting as Quicktime movie

Recently my the font in all my titles has been acting up when after I export to a Quicktime movie. The font that I chose will appear for a few seconds, then it will switch to some default Times New Roman or whatever font for no reason. I'm working with HDV footage. The sequence settings and project settings are all the same and when I export I just use current settings. Even odder is I've been working with this project for months (I did recently reinstall the OS and FC studio, but I'm pretty sure all settings are the same. Any ideas?

I've had the same problem, my font kept on blowing up when ever I exported. I found it happened whenever I had DVD Studio Pro open at the same time. As long as I exported with the ap closed it would be fine. Not sure if it's the same issue.

Why is imovie changing my movie when I export it?

I have created an iMovie clip where I have split the audio from the video and have attached a new audio track to it but when I export it either as a movie or via quicktime, during playback it appears that the original audio is not entirely gone and it will cut back in at random places with 1-3 seconds of orignial audio sounding simultaneously with the new one. When I playback from iMovie there is no additionaly sound so I can not find it to remove it.
Any idea how i can keep the formatting exactly the same when I export it? Its my wedding video and it really means a lot to be able to burn it to a DVD perfectly.
Thanks!

Good to hear that the speed adjustment fixed the audio glitch for you Deborah. It would be nice to have, say, an option for 75% on the speed slider, as there is a big jump from 100% down to 50%. Often a more subtle speed adjustment is called for - particularly for wedding videos (good to see that you are editing your own wedding video).
I'm not sure about this, but iMovie '11 may work correctly when adjusting the speed by entering the percentages manually. I don't recall anyone posting problems like this when using iMovie '11 (it's usually isolated to iMovie '09). So, if your Mac OS supports it, now might be a good time to upgrade to iMovie '11. For the latest version (9.0.8) you need Mac OS X 10.7.4 or later. If you are on Snow Leopard (10.6.8) I think iMovie '11 will update to 9.0.4 only.
