Expand the audio track to reveal the waveform, then select the clip you want to move, hold alt and use the arrows key to move the clip one frame at the time forward or back in time.

But of course, I missed the whole point of this post, being that you are on a Mac.
Here another option: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/8988/ffmpegx

I agree with Tim, Windows Media would be the best candidate here.
Of course, there is the issue of giving the client what they want, and the fact that it may not be compatible on the Mac side of Powerpoint.
My advice would be a copy of Tmpeg Encoder
Above, the free version, and below a more complete commercial version.

If you save a preset, it will be available for every projects (on that same computer).
You can find it in your effects panel under presets.

Hi Sean,
Anything close to loseless is going to need to pretty fast drives to play or edit. Could you explain the idea behind as new source file?
If you want to keep it inside Premiere, all you have to do is select all the files on the timeline and right click “nest’, that will give you a new “virtual” single clip to work with.
As far as lossless formats go, Quicktime Animation / PNG / Motion Jpeg (Max quality) are all close to, or lossless, and they will be smaller in size that uncompressed AVI.

Hi Tom,
You will probably have to convert that footage before getting to Premiere. One solution I’ve used in the past goes through After Effects. Andrew Kramer made a plugin that does just that.

In most cases, you can choose to use the render files in your export, there is a check box for that purpose in the export settings.
This is not often recommended for a couple of reasons.
You would be compressing twice unless you are setting your previews to “uncompressed”, and for that option to works, you’ll need a pretty beefy RAID array.
Second, most people don’t choose to use maximum quality for their renders because it’s too slow, but if you are doing any type of scaling, maximum quality should be used at export time.

Larry,
First, I would use the H.264 direct export (instead of Quicktime). The direct export uses Mainconcept instead. The quality is also superior to the Apple codec.
Now, on the render speed, I have both FCP / compressor and Premiere, and I can’t tell the diference in render times in most cases.
What do you have in your timeline? What machine are you working with?
Both will greatly affect your render, and a simple effect could easily double that time.

You want a sequence that matches your footage. The only exception is when you want to get slow motion. In that case, you could import 60P footage in a 30P sequence.
A 60P sequence should not affect playback, although it would affect compression at export time, since you have to compress twice the amount of frames. You would not gain anything else, unless you added 60P motion graphics or animation, which would be a bit more fluid.
A 24P sequence would likely create jitter in playback.
