No video but sound when playing .mov files

I'm trying to play .mov files on my computer and I get sound but no video. I've installed the latest verson of QT and no help.
The computer is an older MBP.

I should explain better. The mov files are exports from a 2-year-old MBP using FCP and exporting the files as self-contained movies. They were exported to use as an archive and saved on DVDs. Now I'm working on a 4 year-old MBP with FCE and trying to open the files with quicktime after downloading them from the DVD archives. I get the sound but no video. Please help me resolve this.

  • No sound when playing ,mov files ?

    I converted a .avi file to .mov and when playing it in quicktime I have video but no sound. If I uninstall quicktime and use quicktime alternative + media player classic, the .mov files play perfect. But when I install quicktime again (which i have to have for my iPod) there is no sound. I cant figure out how to fix this.

    I have same problem. I have a law lecture CD with .mov files. It plays perfectly in Classic with QT 6.0 but with OS X QT 7 Pro the audio will not play. I called Apple, but got no satisfactory response from the help line.

  • Lost all my sound when playing movies and shows from internet

    i seemed to have lost all sound when playing movies from internet.  i still have "system" sounds and beeps?

    The speaker is not that good but maybe yours is defective if you have the volume fully raised.
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted and have a poor contact.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R" or "R".
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.

  • Cannot get any sound when playing .avi files

    Hi All
    I am running QT version 6.5.3 on Mac OS X 10.2.8 and cannot get any sound when playing .avi files but the picture is perfect.
    I have installed the following: M-Peg 2 playback component, AVI Components and AC3 component.
    Does anyone know if I am missing anything or how I can fix this?
    Many thanks

    Download and install Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs. In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/

  • How do I correct blurry pictures in iMovie? They are clear when I pause the video but blurry when playing the video.

    How do I correct blurry pictures in iMovie? They are clear when I pause the video but blurry when playing the video.

    Try sharing and see if the effect is still present when you play the shared movie.  It can happen when playing within iMovie if there are insufficient resources to play a full resolution.

  • Are there any digital/video frames that will play .mov files?

    are there any digital/video frames that will play .mov files?

    Hi
    Not understanding Your Question - I can only guess
    .mov - are no specific Video Format (Codec) it is a container (read folder) and can hold Codecs many program can use and NOT.
    QuickTime Player use to open many of them - try this and if it opens then Open Inspector [ cmd + I ] and read
    • Video Format (Codec): nnnnnnnnnn
    • Frame Rate: yyyyyyy
    What does they say
    When QT-Players don't open - I use VLC-Player (Google it and download for free). It use to take most of the Codecs.

  • No sound when playing AVI file

    I've looked through the forum and downloaded Perian and DivX and tried deleting the DivX files out of the Quicktime folder, but still no sound when playing one of all my AVI files. If I click on the icon for the video, I can play it through there with sound, but when I actually open the file in Quicktime, there's no sou
    This plays sound:
    But there's no sound when actually opened.

    Did you try both Quicktime applications?  There is also Quicktime 7x which is located inside the Utilities folder.

  • No sound when playing .pps files

    I occasionally receive .pps or .ppt files from my mother but usually can't hear any sound when playing these slide shows. Most recently, I took the same inaudible presentation she sent me, renamed the file and sent it back to her and the music accompanying the renamed slide show played fine for her. Any idea what's going on?? My mother does not create these files but just forwards them along to me. She uses a Windows XP machine and I use a Mac if that makes any difference.

    power mac g4 dual 1.42   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    I'm having the same problem. Evidently, the Mac does not include
    whatever application plays the music that accompanies a .pps file.
    I visited my local Apple store, but nobody was able to help.
    Very disappointing and frustrating.

  • No sound when playing mpeg files

    I can't get quicktime to play sound when I try to play videos that are mpeg files. I already downloaded mpeg-2 playback as well as Perian 1.0 but it still won't play sound. Any suggestions?

    To Apple Discussions!
    Solution
    1. Open Audio MIDI Setup (/Applications/Utilities/), then check the Audio Output setting.
    2. Change the Audio Output setting to 44100.0 Hz.
    3. Quit Audio MIDI Setup.
    KB article - No sound from some applications, but system alert sounds play (Mac OS X 10.3, 10.4)
    Another trick: If you have GarageBand installed, open it (maybe open a GarageBand document) and then quit out of the application.

  • No audio when playing .mov files, codec missing?? Please HELP!

    Hey everyone, i recently exported a movie in submerge (a softWARE THAT lets u put subtitles into movies), i can watch it just fine in my computer, but when i put it in another, mac, i get the video but no audio... Im i missing a codec? i just downloaded the Xvid codec, but nothing, still no audio. What can i do? please help!!

    Load the movie into QuickTime Player, open the Movie Inspector (Window menu), and look at the Format section. That will show the codecs used for the video and audio, the audio being the second one listed. Post that information here and someone can probably tell you what you'll need.
    Regards.

  • No sound when playing imported files...

    Hey all. Super noob with garage band, but searched around and couldnt find the answers.
    After opening the audio files, and dragging in a song, we hit "PLAY" button and can see the track progressing, but hear no sound. What are we doing wrong?
    Thanks.

    No waverform that I can see, if you mean some visual measure of sound. I do not think the track is muted, the volume is turned up both on the track bar as well as the main time measure bar. As far as output, just fooling around I opened up Preferences and for audio output it had identical options, one on top of the other. They were both titled Built-in Output, so I switched to to other, and no luck.
    If I select the Garage Band samples, they will play though.

  • No audio when playing mov files in WinXp SP2

    My quicktime 7.1 will not play any sound and Freezes up.
    I've set audio to safemode and video to to safemode,
    still no audin in playback.

    My Quicktime movies didn't freeze although I had
    NO Sound with Quicktime's movies made with our camera.
    solution:
    Open your Quicktime movie.
    Click; Edit
    Click; Preferences
    Click; Quicktime Preferences
    Click; Audio
    under Devices Click; Select Audio Playback and Recording Devices
    under Sound playback Click; Advanced
    under Speaker setup Click; Quadraphonic or the, stereo speaker choices
    (do not pick any of the Suround Sounds, 5.1, 7.1, or no speakers)
    You must close your Quicktime movie to reset it.
    Open the same movie or another one that wasn't working and listen for sound.
    If still no sound, follow this list back to Speaker setup and put it back where it was.

  • No sound when importing .mov files from Screenium

    Hi guys,
    I've recorded some screengrabs using Screenium.
    When I import them into Premiere Pro to edit, they don't have any sound. I can watch them through Quicktime with sound fine, but it's just Premiere Pro they don't work in.
    I've imported another file (.avi) from my digital camera and the sound on that works fine... any ideas what's up?
    Thanks

  • No sound when playing .avi files

    Hi everyone,
    I tried to fond the solution to this problem with the search options but didn't find anything.
    I purchased Quicktime 7 Pro for windows to convert avi files for my iPhone.
    At first I had troubles getting more than a black screen, but this was solved with the divx codecs. But since then I still get no sound from avi files. Even the audio half of the A/V controls are disabled... Seems it happens even with mp3 audio encoded files...
    Does anyone know what codecs (?) are missing and where I have to install them ?
    Thanks for reading,
