Brian, I am set to Australia and all the displayed sample formats are as required. The custom box is greyed out. Word11 is obviously overriding this setting. Severin On 01/07/2012, at 12:38 AM, Brian Risbey wrote: Hi Severin, Have you gone to OSX system settings, - in the top Personal

Hi Severin, When you insert a date and a time into your document, and you try to set a default date and time format by clicking Default (on the Insert menu, click Date And Time), the format that you choose will revert to the first setting under Available Formats. To work around this problem,

Hi Alan, Have not used the app you mention, I have used Toast, QT Pro, and iMovie to extract audio. But, have you tried duplicating the .m4v file (so you still have the original in case). Then in Finder just changing the extension from .m4v to .m4a? It 'should' change the video file to an

Hi Rosemary, Yes I remember the last time you had a problem with Time Machine Backups on your Time Capsule, I mentioned you were very close to the limit of space required for TM to backup successfully. Time Machine requires enough free space on the drive—add up the space currently used on

Hi Ronni Yes, a possible solution. Thank you. The simple renaming of the file extension made it recognisable as an MPEG-4 audio file.I then edited and re-saved the file in MP3 format which was recognised by my little MP3 player. As you noted, the audio file is the same size as the

Hi Alen, You could give this shareware utility, ffmpegX, a try. I have had mixed success with it as it depends on a number of plugins that must be downloaded separately. Once it it running, drop the file on the left side of the app window and select the preset Movie audio to mp3.

Hi Ronni Thank you. Very clear instructions. Wow - there's a lot more to iMovie than I had ever explored before. This process is quite practical for my occasional (monthly meeting) needs, and the MOV file can be edited and split as needed. WannaAudio and QT7 Pro may provide a lazier
