HT201290 why is QuickTime Player not working when i try to open this files i got in a external hard drive some one els lend me ???

i have a macbook that was resantly upgrade we running Yosemite 10.9 OS and the external hard drive is fairly current brand name WD capacity 500GB with 147GB free lots of its contents are QuickTime Player videos that will like to open some other media is available in different format and is working properly, i have download a more current version of QuickTime Player and it sound better at list sound like it is going to star playing but it don't... so please if some one can help me with some answers will be real appreciate , thank you kindly looking forward to hear from you is my first time asking questions about apple it feels a bit like a shoot in the dark !

Is the friend's external drive where you said these files are, correctly formatted
for use with Mac OS X, or is it set up for use solely with a Windows format?
If you copy one of the QuickTime files into a folder, in your computer and try
to run it from there, does it work at that point? It may not. Could be the drive
you borrowed from a friend has some other issue; perhaps creator account
and permissions may also be limited by how the content was added there.
There is way too much missing information for me to guess, but I wonder about
how the hardware was set up and if the files are actually available to your Mac.
The QuickTime support page itself should be a portal to more information...
QuickTime
The above link is part of this larger section:
http://www.apple.com/support/mac-apps/
Perhaps someone will see this ASC discussion thread later in the day (2AM here)
and maybe can offer a more direct reply. There are several articles in Apple Support
database for applications and other items (such as QuickTime) & the support site is
searchable. Sometimes the database is hard to find exact articles or topics, though.
Hopefully the issue is not too difficult to determine the cause...
Good luck & happy computing!

  • LabWindows/CVI 2013 SP2 stops working when I try to open a file using the project file menu.

    I have windows 7 on my system and sometime late last year I starrted getting a Windows dialog telling me that LabWindows/CVI has stopped working when I try to open a file from the project file menu.  I also get an error when I run a project debug mode and use a selectFilePopup in the code.  The error says, "The program has suspended execution at address 0x75D5025E.  No source line information is available."  I've tried removing and reinstalling CVI to no avail.  Any suggestions?

    Constantin,
    Thank you for your response.  I've attached screnshots showing the version details for kernal32.dll and ntdll.dll.  I also looked at the updates to see which might have been installed when the problem started.  Unfortunately there are 15-20 updates every month.  I didn't take note of when the error started to occur.  At first it only affected my ability to open files from within the project (i.e. file->open->Source, etc).  Then I went back to modify a project that had a SelectFilePopup and found that that wouldn't work either.

  • Why does Photoshop CS5 cease working when I try to print a file on my Canon Lasershot LBP7200?

    I am using Photoshop CS5 extended with the latest upgrade 12.0.4.0 installed. My OS is Windows 7 with the latest updates installed. I have a Canon Lasershot LBP7200 Cdn printer installed as a network printer. When I try to print, e.g., a jpeg file using the print command I get an error message that says Photoshop has stopped working and will be shut down. This did not happen before i started installing the updates for Photoshop -- the print commmand in v. 12.0 worked OK. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both the printer and Photoshop but this makes no difference - the file will still not print in v. 12.0.4.0 and the application crashes.
    Here is the error message in the application log:

    I thought of something you can try...  Not a very great chance of success, but not too difficult to implement (if a bit geeky)...
    Just in case this might be because of recent security changes Adobe has made regarding loading DLLs, it might be interesting to try putting the name of the folder containing the Canon DLLs into your system's PATH.
    1.  You'll need to figure out in what folder CNAP2SMK.DLL resides.  That's not trivial, as Windows normally avoids searching in System folders by default.  Possibly the most reliable way is to start a CMD window As Administrator then type in the following command:
    DIR C:\CNAP2SMK.DLL /S
    2.  The above command may take a long time to run.  Assuming it finally does yield a folder name containing the DLL file and its cousins as installed by the Canon print driver installer, click Start, then right-click Computer, then choose Properties.  Then click Advanced system settings.
    3.  In the System Properties dialog, click the [Environment Variables...] button.
    4.  In the User variables section at the top, you may already have a PATH variable defined.  If so, double-click it.  If not, click the [New...] button and add the PATH variable.  If it already existed, add a semicolon (;) then the folder name you got from step 1.  If the variable is new, just add the folder name.
    5.  OK out, then log off and back onto Windows.
    6.  Do a test print.
    7.  If it doesn't help, you can go through the same steps to remove the folder from the PATH.

  • InDesign CS6 saves file, but crashes when I try to open this file

    Hi,
    I am having a huge problem with Indesign since yesterday. It worked fine before.
    I use Adobe Creative Suite CS6.
    Since yesterday, I have problems with files that I just saved. I can open older files (from before yesterday), but I cannot open any file that I saved recently. Indesign crashes every time I open the file (the file is visible, but right before all the palettes are loaded, Indesign closes down).
    I already saved several files (under different file names) since yesterday, the problem stays the same.
    I already uninstalled and re-installed CS6, it didn't solve the problem.
    This is quite a nightmare. I am thankful for every effort to help!
    All other programs in the Creative Suite work fine!

    It is puzzling indeed. And quite a desaster for me, since I have a deadline to meet.
    No changes, no new installations (not known, maybe updates in the background??).
    InDesign started crashing in the middle of the workprocess. Since then the problem persists.
    When I open an old file and start working on it, InDesign also crashes after a while during the workprocess.
    So I can't work, I can't save files ... booo!
    This happened with an update of a document that I work on all the time, a monthly magazine.
    Maybe it is a Windows problem, although it is strange that all other programs work fine. (I use Windows XP)

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    Hi all
    Why Dynamic Parameter is not working, when i create report XI using stored procedure ?
    Only i shaw those parameters which i used in my stored procedure, the parameter which i create dynamic using stored procedure
    is not shown to me when i referesh the report for viewing the results.
    I have used the same procedure which i mention below but can not seen the last screen which is shown in this .
    ============================================================================================
    1. Select View > Field Explorer2. Right-click on Parameter Fields and select New from the right-click menu.3. Enter u201CCustomer Nameu201D as the name for your parameter4. Under u201CList of Valuesu201D select u201CDynamicu201D5. Under the Value column, click where is says u201Cclick here to add itemu201D and select Customer Name from the drop-down list. The dialog shown now look like the one shown below in Figure 1. Click OK to return to your report design.

Using the drop-down list beside select u201CIs Equal Tou201D and using the drop-down list, select your parameter field (it should be the first field). 8. Click OK to return to your report design and see the parameter dialog.The parameter dialog will appear and show you a dynamic list of values that is updated each time your run your report. It couldnu2019t be easier! In our next tutorial, we will be looking at how to use this feature to create cascading parameter fields, where the values are filtered by the preceding selection.

    One more thing when i try the static parameter for my report, the option i see when i referesh the screen.

    Hi Kishore,
    I have tested the issue step by step by following you description, while the first issue works well in my local environment. Based on my research, this can be caused by the lookup expression or it indeed return Male value based on the logic. If you use the
    expression below, it will indeed only return the Male record. So please try to double-check the record in the two datasets and the expression in your environment:
    =lookup(first(Fields!ProgramID.Value,"DataSet1"),Fields!ProgramID.Value,Fields!Gender.Value,"DataSet2")
    As to the second issue, please try to use the following expression:
    =Count(Lookup(fields!ProgramID.value,fields!ProgramID.value,fields!Gender.value,"DataSet2"))
    Besides, if this issue still exist, in order to trouble shoot this issue more efficiently, could you please post both the .rdl  file with all the size properties to us by the following E-mail address?  It is benefit for us to do further analysis.

    Is this bad?
    No. Ignore it.

    That you have the current OS version installed.
    As far as I know, I have not installed any Remote Access software on my Mac.

  • I just installed Photoshop CC 2014, but Latest version of Bridge will not work when I want to open it from PS

    Any idea why is Bridge latest version not working when trying to open it in Photoshop CC 2014 ? (French version) ? When trying, Creative Cloud app will open to ask if I want to download newest version, which I did numerous times now.
    Thank you

    Hi Eric,
    Here's how a similar problem was resolved between PS and BR.
    The issue was confirmed by ChunXiaYang at Adobe staff and solution put in the forum discussion on June 19 (no. 13). Here's a copy:
    I have confirmed that this is a known issue before release. And the workaround is to uninstall and reinstall PS 2014. Then Bridge can be launched by selecting 'Browse in Bridge' in PS2014.
    Please try the installation, and let me know whether it works. Thanks!
    It woks just fine since I unistalled and reinstalled PS 2014.

    I did this with a fresh install of the entire CC package. As soon as the CC packages updated, CC Bridge broke. Unistalled CC PS, reinstalled again, CC Bridge works, but CC PS updates itself again, and breaks CC Bridge.
    You know... The whole move to CC has been a massive cluster... I've struggled with the CC packages for my entire subscription year, and now I'm 1.5 month away from needing to throw down another $720 for no reason what-so-ever, just so we can Beta test your really screwed up subscription services.

    my login password is not working when i try to log in to my macbook air. what should I do?
    Thanks, Debora

    You can reset the password.
    How you do it though depends on the version of OS X you are running.
    On Lion or Mountain Lion, you use the following technique to reset the Administrators password:
    Boot to your Recovery Partition, by holding down the Option key while starting, and then selecting the Recovery HD as the boot choice.
    Once booted, at the top of the screen is a menu ..., select Utilities / Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A “Reset Password” window will open. Select your boot volume (your SSD drive) if it is not already selected. Select your administrators username from the menu labeled “Select the user account” if it is not already selected. Follow the prompts to reset the password. Restart the computer from the apple menu.
    If you are using the Keychain, you will lose your existing one, and have to start a new one, unless  you remember the old password.
