With iMovie 10 how do I change the movie file size and type.

I have recently upgraded to iMovie 10. It takes some getting used to but I think I will like the new product. After creating my first few movies and trying to upload them to dropbox, it is taking a long time. Comparing the files to ones created in the previous version they are larger, and I need to know how we adjust the file size to the device the movies will be used for. I don't need high resolution files. It looks like you can change the size in file for share but still a large file and only compatible with Mac and PC others are greyed out. Files are much larger than the files generated in the old version.
Thanks any help will be appreciated.

This is one of the areas where the options have been reduced compared to iMovie 9. If you share to File, you should have Large (540p) and SD (480p) options in addition to the HD ones.
I'm not sure exactly which menu it is where you are finding greyed-out options.
What is the native format of the movie you are saving?
If you can't share directly into the format you want you should be able to post-process the shared file with a third-party app.

Publishing with a new screen resolution changes the EXE file size quite dramatically

Does anyone know why if you change the screen resolution and
the re-publish a movie why the resulting EXE grows in size quite
dramatically. Is there any way to avoid this to keep file sizes
down?
Thanks
Alastair

Yes it did help, in the respect that I felt confident that it wasn't anything to do with my project settings. The published files became corrupted when they were copied across to our intranet server.
thankyou

Adding chapters while preserving the original file size and type.

Gone are the days of easily adding chaps in FCP7. FCPX is here… chapters are gone!. Now enter Compressor 4.
When exporting from Compressor am I ultimately going to end up with an additional file with new settings?
I have followed the Compressor manual and understand that I can “Create a new batch from template” and am supposed to choose Create DVD. I however just want to keep my file in its original maximum resolution while gaining the chapter marks that will be recognized in iDVD or Studio Pro.
Can anybody offer me some advice or point me to some good resources?

Assume you're referring to Compressor 4, although the following would pretty much also apply to earlier versions.
Yes; you will have an additional file with chapter markers.
Select a preset…you can start with any of them, but Pro Res 422 makes the most sense.
If your source file (the exported Quick Time file) was PR 422, it will not change the scale and will preserve the quality of your original file (or close enough so you wouldn't be able to see the difference even with a blown up projected image). If, for some reason you a codec other than Pro Res, go to the Inspector>Encoder pane>Video Settings>Compression Settings and make your choice.
In the Preview window, set the chapter markers, which are frame-accurate in an I Frame format like Pro Res.
Submit and Compressor will spit out a high quality QT movie. You can then bring that movie into iDVD, which will recognize your markers.
If you want to use DVDSP, you have two options. 1) You can let DVDSP do the encoding by importing the QT movie with chapters. 2) You can use Compressor to encode; you choose the DVD preset (Disk Burning) and it creates separate audio and video files that you then bring into DVDSP, which will "see" your markers in these files. Most DVDSP users use the second method because they have far greater control over the compression settings…but that presumes the user is relatively familiar with Compressor and Frame Controls.
Finally, bear in mind that DVDs are standard definition, so – however you get there – the DVD will be much more compressed and much smaller resolution than any High Def format. However, the DVD end product can still look very good. Do some tests with small, but representative sections of your movie to see whether iDVD or DVDSP works best for you.
Good luck.

i purchase a movie with my ipad but i sold it and never synced it with itunes how do i get the movie back??!

Unless you are in the US then films can't currently be re-downloaded from the store (and not all films can be in the US). If you are in the US then you could see if it's in the Purchased link on the left-hand side of the iTunes store home page for re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

:-) How can we change the default file path for Bank file ( dmee ) ?

Hi All,
We encounter a problem.
Electronic bank file ( created after a F110 run ) are created, in an automatic way to the DIR_TEMP directory. ( On the SAP server )
How can we change the default file path for Bank files ( dmee ) ?
We'd like to specify another path.
Thx for your help.
Erwan

Hello,
Make sure that you have created the directory in transaction code AL11 with the help of basis consultants.
You can link your PC directory to the application server.
You can maintain the path whether your file needs to get saved in OBPM4 against your DMEE structure example GB_BACS etc.
If you do not maintain any path in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory. If you give the directory path name in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to that directory with numbers 0001, 0002, 0003 etc till it reaches 9999 and reset from the beginning.
If you give the path as well as file name as ABCD, then the file gets generated to that directory folder with ABCD0001, ABCD0002, ABCD0003 etc. till it reaches ABCD9999 and reset from the beginning.
Hope this solves your problem.
Regards,
Ravi

How do I change the font color in Live Type?

How can I change the font color in Live Type?

By trial and error, I also learned that the slide icon just to the right of the color box must be moved to the right in order for the new color to be visible. Of course, the amount to which the slide is moved determines the intensity of and color. Thanks for putting me on the right track (no pun intended).

How do I change the lable of next and previous button in GAF of FPM

Hi Experts,
How do I change the label of next and previous button in GAF application using FPM in each individual step?
Thanks!

Hello Anthony,
as far as I am aware only the final step before the confirmation screen can be changed. Which you can do by clicking on it in the configuration view - click on the last but one step - and click on the next button - at the bottom of the screen you'll get a view where you can change the label of the step.
There is some logic in this - in that it does make for a more consistent user experience across various apps.
It's different to how we could do things in Java - but it's nice that there is a certain level of conformity across FPM apps.
hope this helps,
Cheers,
Chris

How do I change the Home file name back to Home?

Help! - How do I change the Home file name back to Home? My supplier changed it to Demo. I've tried pressing return, control click and Get Info but none gives access to change the name. Any ideas?

The Home folder isn't named "Home." It is named for the user account it represents.
Who is your "supplier?" Sounds like they're not terribly bright.
Can you provide some details on why they "changed" it. Is this a brand new Mac? Were you having information transferred from another computer?
It sounds like you just need to create a new account and get rid of "Demo."
While logged into the "Demo" account, go to System Preferences in the Apple Menu.
Click on Users & Groups
If the padlock is locked, click on it and enter your password.
Click the + button at the bottom of the list of users. This will create a new account. Fill in the information you'd like to use for your account. The account name is what will be used for the "Home" folder.
Once created, select it from the list and check the box to "Allow user to administer this computer."
You can then log out of "Demo" and log in as your new user. If there is nothing in the Demo account that you want, you can delete it from the Users & Groups System Pref.

how do I change the .php file name for a page of my site? The only link to the page is the nav. button link for it in the global nav. The reason I need to change the file name is we want the breadcrumbing name to change and the breadcrumbing is linked to the file name.
