Hi, I can't open AVI (nor mpv) files made on a windows computer in QuickTime; What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Thanks gitmar,
Indeed VLC opens both, avi and mpv, fine. Good media viewer! But why not Quicktime nor Final Cut?
Maybe post in the Quicktime or Final Cut forums here and you may well get an answer.
Good Luck

  • Why can't i access my Apps that I downloaded through iTunes. I believe I'm doing something wrong and not that the issue is iTunes itself

    Occasionally ill try downloading an App through my Macbook Pro 13.5 & it directs me to iTunes to be downloaded. So, I go to iTunes and download the App I need. For instance, Amazon. I go into 'My Apps' in iTunes and try clicking on one of my DL Apps, but nothing happens. Why can't I access the Apps, which I downloaded through iTunes.?I believe I'm doing something wrong and not that the issue is iTunes itself.  I have OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. I am due for an upgrade from that software and also an upgrade for iTunes as well, but that shouldn't be the problem. I've tried everything on my end to troubleshoot. I don't really have the time during the day to call in and troubleshoot, so thats why I'm asking the community. Please help with this problem if anyone can. Thank You!

    Once you download an iOS app, you cannot run that app from the computer. That can only be run from an iOS device. You cannot download Mac Apps from the iTunes App Store, those are downloaded from the Mac App Store. Two different places. If you want a Mac app that will run on your Mac, you need to download that from the Mac App Store. iTunes App Store only has iOS apps that work on iOS devices, iPhone, iPad, or iPod.

  • Can not open an indesign cs4 file, made by a testversion.

    Hey there,
    the failure notice is about updating add ons. Now I got them all, but it does'nt work either. Does this problem sound familiar to anyone or is there a pro who can help?

    The exact error is (in german):
    "...indd" kann nicht geöffnet werde. Aktualisieren Sie Ihre Zusatzmodule auf die aktuelle Version oder rüsten Sie auf die aktuelle Version von Adobe InDesign auf.
    I try to translate:
    "...indd" can not be opened. Update your additional tools on the actual (new) version or update on the actual (new) version of Adobe InDesign.
    I use the computers in my university, so I do'nt have any rights to update. But earlier this day I asked one of the admins and he updated his own pc (which has got the same version and updates of InDesign CS4). It did'nt work either and it was the same error.

  • Why can't I import videos from my own DVD's????  Am I doing something wrong

    I've been trying to put a video on my ipod but am not having any success. I can't even get the DVD saved to my PC. Do I have to buy the video from itunes even though I already own the DVD???
    Any input appreciated!

    To convert a DVD for iPod use, you'll need to use third-party software.
    You'll first need decrypting software to remove the encryption on the DVD.
    Then you'll need conversion software to convert the decrypted files into an iPod friendly format.
    Sometimes, both of those tasks can be accomplished with one piece of software.
    PQ DVD seems to be popular for Windows users, as well as ImTOO.
    Many other titles have been mentioned in this forum. Your question gets asked, and answered, a lot.

  • Camileo H30: I can not open .avi using Pinnacle studio 14

    Good day,
    I can not open .avi in my Pinnacle studio 14 from my Camileo H30
    Where is problem and how is resolution?
    Camileo H30, PC with Win7.
    Thanks.
    regards

    HI,
    I have the same problem trying to imports clips from my new Camileo h30 (set in HD720 30FP).
    In my case, it's possible to import the clips, but after scene detection, in the film preview window, the film is displayed with big white horizontal lines,
    The video is set in HD 720 as soon as the studio project.
    It look like an interlace problem?
    Thanks in advance for your help!

  • Hello all.   Hope someone can help me. I recently downloaded some  updates for my imac.  Since doing this the computer starts up but I get no logon box.  The home screen opens but I can't open any programs or files. I've tried rebooting, no joy. Help!!

    Hello all..   I hope someone here can help.  I recently downloaded some updates to my imac.  Since then the computer starts but I get the home screen opening without the logon box.    I can't open any programs or files and if I click on the Safari tab it disappears from the dock.  I've tried rebooting with no joy.
    I contacted technical help at Apple and was told to hold down the ctrl and alt keys with two other keys, I think the S or P keys when powering up. This worked
    and the computer seemed fine but now the problem has reappeared.  Is there a way to removed downloaded updates from the computer or revert it to an earlier state?   Sorry for the long question. Hopefully one of you clever people can help.   Simon

    Hay thank you for your time . I do that every time I know I am online. It says that I am up to date . I have found that I have 10.4.11 version, and that my boot version is 10.6.2, and that my kernel version is 8.11.1.
    I have a hard drive icon on my desktop that says 10.6.2....
    I use to have iphoto, it doesnt open anymore, it says there is 1.2gigs on that disk.There are many things on here that are the same way. Where do I start?
    It's always good to go with one thing at a time and stay focused on that. Let's start with the OS you're running. Click on the Apple menu > About This Mac. What does it say under Mac OS X version ?

    I have the same problem, and the solutions in   Error changing modules | Lightroom do not work.  Even uninstalling and reinstalling a new copy did not solve the problem.  As anyone got an idea what other lingering files might be causing the problem?

  • Sorry! Something went wrong - I can't open my icloud pages file anymore

    I can't open my icloud pages file anymore. We are two collaborators working on it and she told me the file was freezing. I have said she can reload the file but it didn't work. Then it was my turn. I have tried from desktop but also from Ipad. The Pages app now crash when I want to open this same file. When I load my icloud page, I see the file, it is here, with the last layout, but can't open. I need to recover that document, it's important to me. Is there any assistance @apple to do so?
    Many thanks!

  • I recently upgraded to a G5 and Logic Pro 8. My previous system was a Power Mac 7200 with Logic Platinum 3.5.3. I can not open the old song files unless they are first saved in Logic 6 or 7. Where do I get a dongle for Logic 7?

    eBay or Craigslist would be the only choice.

  • Can't Open Photoshop-saved RAW file in Photoshop...

    I've just gotten back from my school's library, where I was using one of the scanners to scan my negatives. I scanned the files directly into photoshop CS3. In retrospect, I absolutely should have saved in tiff, which has worked before, but this time I saved the files in raw. This is Photoshop Raw, not Camera Raw. I assumed that I could open these files back on my home computer (Photoshop CS4), but apparently I was wrong. If I try to open any of the raw files, I get a dialogue box called "Photoshop Raw Options", and if I hit "OK" I'm told something about missing color profiles, then I'm given an image of gray noise. If I change any of the settings in the dialogue box (files were saved at 16-bit grayscale with Mac byte order), I am told that "Specified image is larger than file," and I can't open the image.
    What's going on? Why can't I open in Photoshop files that I just saved in Photoshop? Have my past few hours just been a total waste?

    Yep, pretty much unless you know the exact size and can correctly fill out the required dialogs required to open a Photoshop "raw" file. The "raw" format is not, as you've found out related at ALL to Camera Raw. It's really a holder over format from the early years used back when there weren't some file formats available on some computer systems...and yes, you SHOULD have used TIFF.

    I just purchased the new Canon SX60 camera. Despite downloading and installing the latest version of Adobe DNG converter, I receive an error message saying that Photoshop CS4 can't open up/convert raw files (.CR2). This is the same file format as used by the SX50, with which I never had any problem. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this problem? Thanks.

    Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras  I do not see that SX60 as supported. Just how new is the SX60 when was it announces. Its support is not even listed in ACR 8.7 RC

    You should be able to open the zipped file by double clicking on it.
