Problem:
I tried to put a QuickTime movie file to my history PowerPoint presentation, but finally failed. Is it possible to add such a video to PowerPoint? I use PowerPoint 2007.
Solution:
Actually, an Apple QuickTime movie (with the file extension .mov) file is not a supportable video format by PowerPoint. You cannot insert it into your PowerPoint 2007 presentation in a direct way. There are 2 alternatives to solving the issue: One is linking the QuickTime movie to PowerPoint, the other is converting the MOV file to a video file format compatible with PowerPoint 2007.
Method 1 Link the QuickTime movie to your PowerPoint presentation
It means that you create a hyperlink for the QuickTime movie in a text or object of your PPT file, and enable the movie by clicking on the text or object. Something like "Play by Click". To create a hyperlink to the QuickTime movie, do the following:
a. In the PowerPoint file, go to a text or object where you want to link the movie object to.
b. Right-click on the text or object, select Hyperlink.
c. In the pop-up Insert Hyperlink dialog, browse from the Look in field to upload the QuickTime movie from your local drive.
d. Once you find it, click OK.
Now you have made a link to the QuickTime movie. You can play it by clicking the hyperlink when delivering the PowerPoint presentation.
Also, there are a few shortcomings of this Link To method:
1. The Apple QuickTime movie won’t play without a manual click on the very link.
2. When the link is enabled, the QuickTime movie will be played on a new window by a default media player on your PC. It will not be displayed within your presentation.
3. The link is invalid when your move the PowerPoint presentation to another computer.
To involve the QuickTime movie in your PowerPoint, you can try the second method, shown as below:
Method 2 Convert the QuickTime movie to a PowerPoint compatible video file format
Before the conversion, you should make clear of which formats are supported by PowerPoint 2007. The PowerPoint-lovable video formats include ASF, AVI, MPEG and WMV. Click here to have a closer look at these PowerPoint Compatible Video Formats.
You can use QuickTime Pro or some third-party video conversion apps, e.g. Leawo Free Video Converter, to convert the MOV file to AVI or any other supportable format. Then, follow the "Insert -> Media Clips -> Movie - Movie from File" practice to insert the reformatted QuickTime movie to your PowerPoint presentation.

For more exposure of your movie-embedded PowerPoint presentation, you can convert it to video of MOV, AVI, MP4 and more.

You really make it seem so fabulous with your presentation, but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too rarified and very broad for me. I am looking ahead for your incoming post; I will try to get the hang of it.
Hey, I love your site. It seems most people don’t really bother writing articles that lack substance nowadays.
Very good concept, I like how you convey the msg.
You are a very smart person!
While this issue can be very tough for most people, my opinion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do appreciate that you’ve added relevant and rational commentary here though. Very much thanks to you!

Hi there, I found your blog via Google while searching for first aid for a heart attack and your post looks very interesting for me.
Great looking Blog! Found it through Google. Just as an FYI, it didnt display right when I opened it in the Opera Interet Browser.

A lot of useful information. Thank you!
The information here is great. I will invite my friends here.

Hi - very good website you have created. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to issue a comment to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically delightful. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed working with computing machines and am attempting to learn code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).
I read your posts all the time, but have never commented. I just wanted to take the time to stop and tell you how much one reader appreciates your words. It seems most people only want to comment to point out how they disagree, but every once in a while we should just stop to say “Thanks!”.

Blog looks really good mate, keep it up! Inspires me to keep building a following mine for mine.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.Have you tried the ipad? you can get one free at FreshGiftCard.com
I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)Have you tried the ipad? you can get one free at FreshGiftCard.com
What’s up many thanks with regard to your post.I truly adore your website.Its very informative.However I genuinely want you to post how you put social bookmarking below your post.I like it due to the fact its a really thoroughly clean cool blogger hack.
thank you incredibly much

You made some good points there. I did a search on the topic and found most people will agree with your blog.

Great post full of useful tips! My site is fairly new and I am also having a hard time getting my readers to leave comments. Analytics shows they are coming to the site but I have a feeling “nobody wants to be first”.
Substantially, the post is actually the greatest topic on this related issue. I concur with your conclusions and will eagerly look forward to your coming updates. Just saying thanks will not just be enough, for the tremendous lucidity in your writing. I will at once grab your rss feed to stay abreast of any updates.
I really love all the things you write about on your site , and all i want to say is to keep up the good work buddy!!!
So, this post was a really nice read!
Nice to have found this post. Great and informative article.

Hey Great post found it on Aol . Check out my Blog Thanks!!
Of course, what a great site and informative posts, I will add backlink - bookmark this site? Regards, Reader.
Wow! Thank you! I always wanted to write in my site something like that. Can I take chunk of your post to my blog?
Good points raised here. I am glad to you for that, still you deserve more thanks than that. I have colour blindness. I mainly use Opera web browser and consider a number of websites are difficult to grasp thanks to a careless range of colours used. Nevertheless, here, as the range of colors is great, the design is extremely tidy and pleasant to comprehend. I don’t know whether it was a premeditated and conscious attempting, or just the ‘luck of the draw’, but I still thank you.
Yeah, I have had that problem, where I enjoy the post, but I have no experience with the subject, . So when I have time I try to think of something to say and when I don’t I move along wishing I did.
aku juga lagi belajar nih bisnis online, tapi masih belum dapat hasil, masih dikit,, makasih dah sharing tentang belajar bisnis online, moga kebaikan yang punya blog ini earningnya makin gede dan makin sukses ya, salam hangat.
I am really glad I have discovered this page. The related information was very helpful and will be pleased to bookmark it. Will be back a few weeks to see if there are going to be any new updates.
Keep the good information comming, we need more authors like you!
Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
Thank you for writing such an appealing post. Normall I see the same thing and it starts to get on my nearves. Thanks again and I’ll be back for more.
thanks for the great post but i think you need more work
Great post, keep doing the same
I keep listening to the news speak about getting free online grant applications so I have been looking around for the best site to get one.:)
