Snow Leopard iTunes 10.5 will not play multiple video tracks in QuickTime .MOV files

I recently discovered that Snow Leopard iTunes version 10.5 won't play multiple video tracks in a QuickTime .MOV file.
Both video tracks appear and play correctly when playing the file in:
- QuickTime Player 10 or QuickTime Player 7.7 on the same Snow Leopard machine
- iTunes 10.3.1 on another Snow Leopard machine
- iTunes 10.5 on Leopard or Windows 7
So I think the problem is iTunes 10.5 on Snow Leopard (although I haven't been able to test iTunes 10.4).
First test file is two 640x480 video tracks side-by-side (total dimensions 1280x480):
http://160.94.17.23/demo/two-video-tracks-1280x480.mov
All I see is the first (left) video track, and not the right one. iTunes "Get Info" command incorrectly reports the video dimensions of the file as 640x480.
Second test file is two 640x480 video tracks played one after another (duration of 10 seconds each):
http://160.94.17.23/demo/two-video-tracks-640x480.mov
All I see is the first video track, and although it reports the correct file duration (20 seconds), the second video track never appears -- it simply freezes on the final frame of the first video track for the last 10 seconds.
Anyone else see similar behavior? Unless I'm missing something, I suppose I should submit this as a bug to Apple.

I have the same problem, i tried re-installing, converting it to AVC H264 but none seems to work so far

Can't play long voice memo after upgrading from Tiger OS to Snow Leopard OS

I have a voice memo that's 1.5 hrs long saved on my computer that I used to be able to play in iTunes & Quicktime, but ever since I upgraded from Tiger OS to Snow Leopard OS, the file will not play anymore. I tried installing quicktime 7 from the snow leopard optional installs but the file still didn't play. I also installed the VLC player which opened the file, but only played 7 minutes of it. When I try to open the file in quicktime it says that it can't play the file and that it is not a movie file, but my file is saved as a ".mov" file. Does anyone know how I can get the file to play again?

Upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard and final cut express 4 will not work

upgraded to Mac OS X Snow Leopard and final cut express 4 will not launch but my final cut express HD 3.0 version comes up. I reinstall my final cut express 4 upgrade disc and it still will not launch.
Where do I go from here?

You installed from the discs, right?
What happens when you try to launch? What are you doing to launch and what happens you do it? Can't see you computer from here. If you probably need to contact Apple with an installation issue on a new computer.

I have a Sony radio in my car. With IOS 4 on my IPhone I could use the docking plug to the usb input on the radio and stream ESPN radio or pandora to the radio. After upgrading to IOS 5 on the phone the Sony radio will not recognize the phone . Any thoughts.

I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

Since installing Mac OS X Snow Leopard my macBook pro does not allow Adobe Flash plug in even after attempting to download. Any advice what to do? Tks

Hello,
Since installing Mac OS X Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro, I cannot use Adobe Flash. Each time i attempt to download Adobe i get the same message "blocked plug-in'. Any ideas?
Tks

alisel,
the latest version of Adobe Flash Player that runs on Snow Leopard (or newer versions of OS X) can be downloaded here.
Once you’ve installed it, you might need to check Safari’s Preferences, in the Security tab, to make sure that the “Allow Plug-ins” checkbox is checked.

Time Machine after upgrade to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard

Hi,
I upgraded my Macbook pro to Mountain Lion yesterday from Snow Leopard. I just did the upgrade over the top of snow leopard so all of my apps and documents are exactly as they were (right down to the wallpaper)
However, there is a problem with time machine.
Time Machine no longer automatically backups to the drive I had been using for my snow leopard backups (I assume this is because I have changed operating systems).
How can i continue to use this drive for time machine?
Can I just select it again and will it retain my existing snow leopard backups?
Or do I need to format it?
Cheers guys.

Thank you, so that will retain my existing snow leopard backups and just start making new mountain lion backups? (There is more than 1TB of available space on the drive still)

Snow Leopard 10.6.1 will not connect to Kyocera Mita Copystar

I have a Macbook Pro running the latest version of OS X v10.6.1.
In our office we have a Copystar (Kyocera Mita) CS-2550 on a network.
Down the hall we have a Windows XP machine that connects to the CS-2550, and in settings I have found it connects via TCP/IP, with an IP address something like 192.68.##.##
When I first got my Macbook Pro in February 2009 I was able to connect to this network copier/printer. In July I had to reformat this hard drive and reinstall OS X, then recently installed Snow Leopard. Not until last week did I try to reconnect to the CS-2550.
I went to the Copystar site and downloaded Kyocera Mita OSX 10.4 & 10.5 installer v 1.0.
Is this the correct file to download and install?
Is there another file I should also download and install?
Is Snow Leopard, 10.6.1 not compatible with Copystar CS-2550?
I installed the file and in System Preferences / Print & Fax / Open Print Queue / it reads..... "The printer software was installed incorrectly. Please reinstall the printer's software or contact the manufacture for assistance."
I know that my Mac saw the printer, because during Printer Setup it found "Kyocera Mita CS-2550 (KPDL) without me having to type that in.
Please help if you can.
Thank you,
Dan

See: http://www.codedifferent.com/2009/09/02/howto-reactivate-your-kyocera-printer-un der-mac-os-x-snow-leopard/
We have a KM-2550 and this solved it. HTH.

Just upgraded to new iTunes, downloaded shows, will not play.

I just upgraded to the newest itunes last night, and today I downloaded three episodes of Lost.
They will not play. It says time is elapsing, but there is no sound or video, just a gray screen.
Does anyone have any idea why?

Try the following: download BatChmod and run on the iDVD project package with the settings shown in the screenshot below:
Click to view full size
If your files use a different Group you can use it. Then launch iDVD and see if you can open the project file.

After the latest version of Adobe flash player was installed, movies and tv shows will not play, and

After the latest version of Adobe Flash Player was installed, movies and tv shows will not run, and most of the news videos will not play. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it but that does not help.

I have windows (crap) seven and internet explorer. When I try to access movies or tv shows, I'm always asked to install the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. When I check the programs list, it indicates that Adobe Flash Player Active X is installed. I have uninstalled adobe and reinstalled it several times. Do you suppose this is a virus, and I need to redo the hard drive completely?

JavaFX/NetBeans not working after installation of Mac OS X Snow Leopard

Hi guys!
I'm sort of in a hurry to get this working since I'm gonna demo my project tomorrow.
I just installed the new Mac OS X, and now my project won't run anymore!
I get the following dialog saying something like this (translated from Swedish):
com.sun.javafx.runtime.Main accidentally exited when using the plug-in file libjogl.jnilib.And the error that I get in the NetBeans console is:

BUILD FAILED (total time: 37 seconds)Can it be somthing about that the installation installed a new version of Java? Right now, the properties of my project says Java 1.6. Can't remember if I had 1.5 before or not... But maybe it changed anyway somehow.
What can I do, any ideas?

I'm seeing this exact same problem. After upgrading to Snow Leopard JavaFX simply fails with a segmentation fault. Any suggests?

Lost my photos from iPhoto after upgrading 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Yosemite.

I just bought Snow Leopard to upgrade my iMac from 2009. It was running OS 10.5.8. I ran all the updates for 10.6.8 before I went ahead and download Yosemite. My iPhotos won't open, I downloaded the "iPhoto upgrader" from the apple website and it did nothing to remedy the problem. I cannot retrieve my photos and I'm panicking. I've read other posts of people "deleting" the iPhotos app and re-installing it, but the Mac App Store doesn't seem to have iPhoto as a downloadable app anymore. Can anyone please help me retrieve my photos? This is the only place I have the photos and I'm afraid I won't see them again. I also just used the iPhotos app that my iMac and came with because I didn't buy it separately, so there is no installation disk either.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

ITunes not opening up after upgrade to 11.4 on Snow Leopard

Hi Guys,
I recently upgraded my iTunes version to v11.4 after which it is not opening up?
When clicked, it just bounces in the Dock like any other App and thats it - it never opens up and not even its Menu group is displayed. Any ideas? I'm sure its a known issue but unable to figure out yet and not able to find any related posts too.
I use OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on a MacBook Pro 5,4 Model.
Thanks,
Sanditude.

I had actually tried all that and ensured its the same App in the Dock. Have also ensured I have the latest Apple updates installed for Snow Leopard.
Can't think of any other problems at the moment. Any ideas?
Many thanks,

Contacts. Can't add new contacts after upgrading to Mtn Lion from Snow Leopard.

I can't add new contacts after upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain last week. I do not use iCloud. Any suggestions?

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "35." Please post it in a reply.
