Hi,
I am a biology teacher, and back when I had a windows machine (ughh), I had a student create some animations clips about genetics themes. When I transffered all my files to my new Mac (yey!) the animation clips appeared only as blank, gray icons with "exec" written on them.
In fact, the exec files play with Quicktime so the animation data is preserved in the format somehow.
I know I could just always play them with Quicktime, but I would like to comvert the blank, gray exec files into something more friendly, compatible and durable, with an icon that shows part of the animation, for example. Perhaps an iMovie file of some kind?
I really don't know much about animation, video and movie comversion, so your help is appreciated.
I have a Macbook running OS X 10.5.7
Thanks!
