Wmvs won't play in Keynote on iPad, but WILL PLAY in keynote pres embedded in iBook on iPad?!!

I have some PPT presentations I want to present from an iPad; they contain embedded video files (WMVs). I open them in Keynote on my iMac, and save them as Keynote presentations. The videos work fine on my computer. However, when I import a presentation onto my iPad, the videos won't play in Keynote. The rest of the presentation works great; just no video playback.
This wouldn't be weird except for the fact that in iBooks author, I will insert a Keynote presentation into a page of a book I made. When I play the presentation on my iPad, in iBooks, the videos work perfectly. Can anyone explain this?
The issue is that because I have an iPad 1, I have to use a VGA connector to present, meaning the Keynote-in-iBook does me no good. Projectors will only display an actual Keynote presentation coming out of an iPad (or full screen video). They won't display a Keynote when it's part of an eBook.
Ideas? If I have to convert all the WMVs to m4vs or something, and re-build my presentations, I will. But the fact that it works without any problems in iBooks gives me a glimmer of hope that there is some way to accomplish this that I'm just not seeing.... Help?

The VLC app will play WMV files. When they are encountered you typically see an offer to open them in VLC and after playing you go back to the app that tried to play the WMV file. Worth a try.

  • I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. Help please

    I bought my iPhone 4s in the Uk and then brought to Cyprus where I live. I used Siri to call my husband 2 days ago without problem but now when I try to use Siri it won't call any local Cypriot number but will call my Uk contacts. I can call the same numbers manually so it's not my network. Any help would be appreciated.

    This sounds like an international issue? Although I can not see why? I brought my phone in Australia and operating it in Indonesia, I have the same issues.... Otherwise Siri works fine, even texting (SMS) to local numbers siri works well, but dialing local number it just wont work...! I will try using my Australian SIM card and see if that is the reason.. I tried changing the number in the contacts and took out the international prefix, I turned the international assist on and off still nothing.. How frustrating. I called apple, the technican had know idea and we to his supervisor, had to wait fro 40 miuntes and then I hung up..
    PLEASE HELP..!

  • IPad2 won't charge with 10w wall charger, but will via USB port

    Hi all,
    My iPad2 recently stopped charging at all with the 10W wall charger  -- the iPad does not even recognize that the charger is attached (no change in the battery icon).  Meanwhile, charging from a USB port works as otherwise expected. Here is what I have done so far to debug the problem, using tips found on this forum:
    I replaced the wall charger, including the USB cable, with a new 10W charger from Apple -- no change;
    I verified that both the new and old wall charger will charge a borrowed iPad3.
    I verified that the same USB cable used with the wall charger will charge my iPad fine when connected to my Mac Mini or a borrowed MBA;
    When connected to a powered USB port on a Lenovo ThinkPad, I get the expected "Not Charging" message, but eventually (12 hours) the iPad will charge;
    I have performed a hard reboot of the iPad several times, with no change in behavior.
    What I have not done yet:
    6.  Restore to factory settings -- trying to avoid this painful step if possible:
    7.  Visited the Apple Store -- not logistically convenient at this time.
    Any tips from the community what else I might try? I find it curious that the iPad won't recognize a closed charging circuit from the wall charger, but will from a laptop USB port.
    Thanks in advance for your time and advice.

    Take it into the apple store.
    I've had a 30 pin port go bad on my iPad. Said it was 'not charging' even though it was trickle charging, didn't wnat to sync, ,etc.
    You very possibly have something internal wrong with your port and it'd be in your best interest to take it in. Especially if it's still under warranty because, barring any obvious signs of abuse or neglect, the 30 pin would fall under manufacturer's defects.

  • Arch64: wine won't launch exe on NTFS partitions but will do on reiser

    Hi everyone!
    OK, this is an other issue with wine and x64 (2.6.30). I say another because I saw that a lot of us have issues with wine and x64 that end up being answered "wine and 32 bit applications under x64 architecture won't do fine" but this one is driving me nuts: it looks like i'm not far away from making it.
    My problem is: wine can't launch applications if the exe is on my NTFS partition but will do if the same exe is on one of my reiserfs partition.
    ie:
    [miguel@WKM_MSI ~]$ wine /mnt/win_NTFS/WINDOWS/NOTEPAD.EXE
    wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x0044b6ab at address 0x44b6ab (thread 0009), starting debugger...
    wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000028 at address 0x7eb73c83 (thread 0018), starting debugger...
    wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000028 at address 0x7eb67c83 (thread 001c), starting debugger...
    wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000028 at address 0x7eb67c83 (thread 001e), starting debugger...
    ^C
    I get the usual wine popup saying that "NOTEPAD.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close" (http://img410.imageshack.us/i/ekrangrnts1.png/)
    But:
    [miguel@WKM_MSI ~]$ cp /mnt/win_NTFS/WINDOWS/NOTEPAD.EXE /mnt/my_reiserfs_partition/
    [miguel@WKM_MSI ~]$ wine /mnt/my_reiserfs_partition/NOTEPAD.EXE
    And NOTEPAD works like a charm!
    To answer usual questions:
        - I gave each bin32-wine* package a try, even some old versions but none make any difference
        - all lib32-* packages are installed (except for community/lib32-libgl and community/lib32-nvidia-utils which would conflict with my aur/lib32-nvidia-utils-beta)
        - I tried several nvidia configuration but it really doesn't look like a video driver issue... rather a 64 problem
        - I installed many things throught winetricks such as DirectX etc...
        - I didn't find any similar issue on google
    Here is how I mount my partitions if you think that could come from some right issues:
    [miguel@WKM_MSI ~]$ cat /etc/fstab
    /dev/sda1 /mnt/win_NTFS ntfs-3g users,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0
    /dev/sda8 /mnt/my_reiserfs_partition reiserfs defaults 0 0
    Some threads with similar problems but no mention of the "partition behavior"

    (and keep on the good job )

    Hi Slightlystoopid!
    Thanks for the idea but that doesn't look like it. I tried the "umask" but no luck!
    Actually the line I quoted in the original post was already "experimental". My usual fstab before I tried this one was:
    /dev/sda1 /mnt/win_NTFS ntfs-3g users,uid=1000,gid=100,fmask=0113,dmask=0002,locale=fr_FR.utf8 0 0
    /dev/sda8 /mnt/my_reiserfs_partition reiserfs defaults 0 0
    That gives me:
    [root@WKM_MSI miguel]# ll /mnt/
    total 8.0K
    drwxrwxr-x 1 miguel users 8.0K 2009-09-23 10:42 win_NTFS
    drwxrwxrwx 12 root root 384 2009-09-23 10:33 my_reiserfs_partition
    Which doesn't work neither!
    BTW as we talk about it: "my_reiserfs_partition" is owned by root! Isn't it a security issue? I mean: I can read/write/execute on it as regular user but shouldn't it be mounted with the same rights as /mnt/win_NTFS?
    Still interested in any piece of advice on the original issue !

  • Wmv won't play

    i have a website with links to videos in both quicktime and wmv. recently i had to republish the entire site and one
    wmv link is not working correctly. normally (on a pc) when you click a link the video plays immediately (while it is downlaoding). now a prompt comes up asking you if you want to download and then once that is accomplished, it plays. of course on macs that what happens with wmv's anyway. well at least on my mac where i have installed flip4mac to allow me to play wmv's.
    i have tried to republish several times and nothing works.
    i deleted the link and remade it. i also downloaded a new copy of the file from my cd,renamed it to something slightly different, installed it where all my other files
    are kept on my external lacie drive (wmv's and qt's).
    any help appreciated.

  • Tv won't recognize hdmi from macbook pro, but will from ipad

    I have a new Toshiba TV (40L5200U) that will recognize HDMI input from an IPad, but not from a MacBook Pro (running 10.6.8).  I'm connecting through a Rocketfish Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (RF-AP305), but the TV says "no video signal."  Display Preferences shows 1024x768, which the TV user guide lists as an acceptable input (XGA), but when I detect displays the computer doesn't recognize the TV.  I can't see an Arrangements tab.  The computer does give output through this port to a VGA adapter for a projector.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    It is vital to push the Mini DisplayPort adapter into the Mac socket until essentially ALL of the metal is inside the socket.
    Use About This Mac > ( More Info ) > Displays to examine the NAME of the display attached. Until you get the make&model popping up there, you have not made a solid connection.
    "Supported resolutions" for many displays are not supported in the same way on each of the available ports. 1024x768 mat be an excellent VGA resolution that does not work at all across HDMI. Be certain [√] Mirroring is turned OFF to allow the displays to be set independently.

  • Despite everything, Firefox won't open on my computer account, but will on others.

    I had installed the new firefox 28, after which it all seemed good. But when I later went back onto my computer firefox would not open despite the amount of times I clicked it. I tried 'safety mode' as well. Neither open anything and doesn't appear in task manager. However, firefox options opens. But there's nothing useful on there.
    Firefox works on the other computer accounts, just not mine.
    I've restarted the computer numerous times and I've tried uninstalling and installing it. Nothing.
    And nothing has come up on an AVG scan.
    Help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 28: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    If possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove "personal data" when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because this will remove all profile folders and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords including data in profiles created by other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *(32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
    *(64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"

    Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.
    If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.

  • IChat won't send written messages...but will connect to do an audio chat...

    I'm not sure what happened, but my iChat just stopped sending text-based messages. I can log on, click on a person, and type a message, but it won't send. I can, however, connect and do an audio chat. Has anyone had this happen before??

    Hi,
    Next Bit.
    In iChat > Preferences > Accounts then the Server Settings tab, what is the Login port currently in use ?
    For AIM Logins this is normally 5190 by default. We post about changing it to 443
    Is SSL an Option for you and is it Selected ?
    Try it deselected if you have it (iChat 5) - you need to be logged out to make changes.
    iChat logs in on port 5190 on the TCP Protocol with any Buddy list that accesses the AIM Service.
    It also uses this same port but on the UDP Protocol for File Sending, Direct IMs (Those with Pica and Files sent in them) and group chats. Some Buddy list Feedback is also on UDP.
    Changing the Login port separates the dual use.
    If the AIM SSL server goes down iChat needs a manual reset to get it to work again.
    If changing either of those does not produce any changes then try Deleting the Account/Screen Name from iChat then Re-adding it again.
    You will not lose your Buddy List as it is held at the server end.

  • PC's won't talk to to the Internet but will talk to the LAN

    My problem started about 3 days ago, I could not get to the Internet from any PC on our network.  After working with our ISP they found that they could get into my router, WRT54G via remote web access.  They had me reload the config but that didn't help.  They suggested a new router so I installed a WRT160Nv2 with the same results. 
    ALL PC's on the network can not see the Internet so I don't think it is a config issue at the PC level.
    I can access the router from the web and ping different sites which tells me that the router is able to talk to the Internet, it just won't allow anything else to talk.

  • My Ipod Touch 2G won't connect to My Computer & Itunes but will show that it's charging.

    I've had my Ipod Touch 2G for quite a few years and it's always worked fine up until now. About a week or so ago, I wanted to add a song to my Ipod. So I downloaded the song to my ITunes then connected my Ipod in. Only my Ipod didn't show up. It would normally appear in my Itunes and in My Computer but it's not. The screen on my Ipod shows that it's charging, that's it. I've tried practically everything. I uninstalled Itunes then reinstalled it. I restarted my Ipod countless times. I've gone through the steps on iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows but nothing has worked. I know it can't be the USB port because my flashdrive connects into it just fine. It might be my USB cord, but I'm not sure. I plan to buy a new one asap but can anyone else help me? I plan to get an IPhone 5 very soon and hopefully a new laptop but my music on my Ipod isn't in my Itunes library. Do you see my problem? Please help me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • MacPro won't boot from (2) internal drives but will from DVD

    My MacPro hung this morning, blank screen but mouse red LED working. I restarted it and it booted into my 2nd internal drive with 10.5.2 rather than "Macintosh HD". Checked Time Machine and seemed to be all good.
    I used the DVD to get TimeMachine to do a complete restore from internal drive 4 onto the main Macintosh HD. This got as far as saying something like "restore complete, click to restart using restored disk".
    After clicking I just got a beachball of death.
    Used DVD to run disk utility, clean bill of health on all drives except verify permissions gets 15% through then stops.
    Now, when I try and boot from either of my two startup disks the MacPro starts up, goes to greyscreen then I get a couple of little clicking noises and the whole thing shuts down.
    Tried unplugging everything then just put power lead back in and monitor connection,
    Tried running Apple Hardware Test (as it boots from disk but not drives, thought it might be a power supply problem) but AHT gets to "test 1" then locks up
    I can boot into single user mode, am about to try FSCK but running out of things to try.
    Can I access files from the desktop and put hem onto a remote machine or USB stick from Single User Mode - or access/mount my drives from the DVD. In the "old" days it was poosible to boot to a desktop from a CD - can that still be done?
    Cheers

    I always keep spare drives, and use SuperDuper to keep images even of drive volumes.
    Keeping one drive to OS only and no data or prefs helps.
    Having an emergency drive or partition: a must (sort of like Micromat TTPro eDrive only better).
    Pull the drive for now. Maybe Data Rescue II later. And a FW case you can throw it into for repairs or to recover files.
    I am surprised you don't get the "stop" sign, a circle + slash, that often indicates corrupt journal/directory and no boot device where it expects to find one.
    TechTool Pro, commercial $90 5.0 is due soon, hopefully they were just waiting now for 10.5.5 to be out and see if it would change or alter (or break) their utility.
    Backups, whether TS or a clone made with SuperDuper, are critical, should run on their own automatically in background, and the OS doesn't have to be that large, fit it on 60-100GB disk image so you don't have to worry about partition and size.
    For now, use the DVD to install OS X on a new drive partition to begin to build a foundation from which you can do more and mark this as emergency-only. You can clone it later if needed to a "working" system. SuperDuper is free for full copy, or use Disk Utility Restore even to set the source and 'target' destination volumes.

  • Netflix won't stream in HD in Mavericks, but will in Parallels

    When I try to watch Lost in Netflix in my Mac OS X Mavericks, the HD icon doesn't appear. But when I log in in Parallels and see the same chapter, the icon appears. I used the keyboard shortcut (ctrl+shift+alt+S) to force HD in both, and the max rate that Safari can stream is 1750. But in Windows in Parallels, it can stream at 3000. Is there a way to fix this? I also tried to use Chrome and Firefox instead of Safari, but got the same result. That's why I think it's a Mavericks problem.
    I have a MacBook Pro mid 2012, Safari 7.0.5 and Mavericks 10.9.4. In Parallels I use Windows 7 Professional SP1 and Internet Explorer 64 bits. Both with Microsoft Silverlight 5.1 installed, HTML5 activated.
    Thanks.
    This is Safari, with no HD icon and 1750 max rate.
    This is Internet Explorer in Parallels Desktop, with the HD icon and 3000 max rate.

  • IChat audio and visual won't connect on my home network, but will on others

    Hi there,
    So here's my problem: When I try to connect via audio or video with iChat 5.0.3 it returns and error saying iChat can't connect. Text chatting works just fine. It only does this on my home network; I can take it work and connect to work's network and iChat functions just fine. My wife also has a mac using snow leopard and her iChat doesn't work either. We can connect to each other on our home network and use audio and video chat, but just can't connect to other networks. I'm using ATT&T U-verse and their 2wire modem/wireless router (model 3600hgv) that came with it, along with an airport extreme.
    After carefully studying the other posts about iChat, I disconnected the airport and just used the 2wire, modifying the port settings as per the port forward website. I realized that the airport could have been using DHCP in addition to the 2wire, that's why I disconnected it. After doing these things, iChat still doesn't work. I'm not sure where to go from here.
    Any help would be VERY much appreciated

    Hi,
    Nice info.
    Does the 2WIre device you have include having UPnP ?
    Different manufactures put it in different places so it could be anywhere in the set up pages.
    If not does it have Port Triggering (Special Applications) ?
    You will need to use this as you want to use two computers with the same ports.
    This needs a different set up to Port Forwarding.
    Alternatively put the 2Wire in DMZ (This opens all the ports to one IP)
    List the IP the Airport device gets.
    (It would be better yet if the DHCP was turned Off - the Airport would then need to be set up for Static routing (Manually) to keep the same IP)
    This is the closet number to your model
    http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/2wire/3800HGV-B/iChat.htm
    Did you set all the ports ? (These are the iChat 3 set but cover all the ones iChat 4 and 5 use)
    Did you do the bit at the bottom ? (move the items to the right hand list that you want to use - listing both computers at the text field that reads "JoannasDell" (one at a time if it allows two computers by this method)

  • Certain pages won't print to a Xerox printer but will in print in MSIE

    I have Firefox 3.6 on a 64bit win7 PC. When I print certain pages to my Xerox laser printer (for example http://www.dressmakingresearch.com/1930s_under_dress.htm as one of several examples) I get one page, then a blank page, then error PCL5 out of memory. Sounds like some process running amok, the printer has 128 MB and nothing on this page is that big. I can print this page from FF to a HP OfficeJet. I can print it to anything from MSIE. Other PCs printing this page from FF to the same printer have the problem. Some problem with how FF renders it to this one printer driver, but the driver itself is OK? I print with the standard shrink to fit option. What would you suggest I do next to diagnose and fix?
    Looking on the page, the various images are in table cells that are narrower than the image. <TD width="100"><IMG width="150"...
    If I use Firebug to change the 150 to 99, the page prints. Why would FF be forgiving of this for some printers but not others?

    What app are you trying to print with? Not all printing apps will print documents and Pages might be looking for an AirPrint printer.

  • My microphone won't work when in Speaker mode, but will when in regular mode. What is up with that?

    My iPhone's microphone will not work in the Speaker mode, but will when in Regular mode. The microphone works even when in bluetooth mode. This was sudden and no updates have been made recently, but it is up to date with the software.

    I took it to the apple store and it was determined to be a mechanical problem. Since I had apple care, they replaced the phone.
