You recognize this situation? Shooting a vid with your point an shoot or iPhone, and instead of holding it in landscape you capture the vid in portrait. No worries!!, here is how to simply correct this.
First of all, open Quicktime 7 on your Mac, then:
- open your movie
- goto the ‘movie’ menu and down to ‘get movie properties’
- select ‘video track’ on the left side of the pop up menu that appears
- then on select ’size’ on the right hand side of that menu
- you can then rotate, adjust size etc. with the buttons on the bottom of that menu and preview in the main window
- in the ‘file’ menu select ‘export’ and choose the file format, codec etc that you want.
- or just save!
Simple enough for you?

Ten years since 1999

Bas is remembering the year 1999. 10 years back I was working at a Judiciary Court preparing for the feared year 2000 bug. Specializing in Windows NT 4 Server, it was the age of Windows 95, the Nokia 5110 (also used by Agent Dana Scully in the X-Files). Internet was all about Napster and Altavista.com for searching news and mayby a mp3 or so. For social networking I was using ICQ, remember that one?
In June of 1999, Apple introduced their first iBook G3.
And now back to today, wishing you a awesome 2010

Today I needed to dump my Macintosh HD to an external HD using Carbon Copy Cloner. For backup issues I needed to boot from the external HD afterwards. These handy boot options helped me pick the right one. Note these options are for Intel Macs only!
