Quicktime 10 not opening Quicktime 7 MOV files

All of the old Quicktime movies created from IDL TIFF images and exported using the IDL 6.3 Research Systems Inc. Codec will not play in Quicktime 10. The files would not play in VLC or Flip4Mac either. Imported the MOV files into iMovie 11 (9.0.2), the thumbnails showed the images and tried to export in different formats. All formats displayed black screens. Any ideas would be appreciated. I have dozens of movies that need to be made accessible to coworkers.

Unfortunately the codec was not installed on this system... The error seems to be happening only for TIF files that were used to build the project.
Then perhaps you should install the missing codec if possible or convert the files on the "old" system. If the TIFF images are encoded using a proprietary or custom compression codec, then QT would require the same codec to decode the file data for both playback and conversions.

Quicktime video (.mov file) will not load and play in Firefox 3.6.16

I have a computer with Firefox 3.6.16 installed that will not play Quicktime videos (.mov files) in the browser. This is a desktop computer.
Another computer (laptop) with exactly the same version of Firefox installed will load and play them perfectly in the Quicktime player.
Both computers have Quicktime addin 7.6.9.0 installed and designated as the default application for Quicktime movies.
Both computers play the videos correctly in IE 8.
When attempting to play the video in Firefox, the player window opens and attempts to load the video, but soon seems to freeze leaving a black window open where the player should be.
From what I have observed, this seems to be a problem related specifically to this computer, and since the video plays in IE I have ruled out the firewall blocking loading from the site.

Hi, I've exactly the same problem, 'cept I've XP Pro. When I say exactly, I mean the format used is HDV 1080i60, along with everything else there.
And I'm right there with you. Why Quicktime can't play a natively encoded HDV Quicktime file (using Final Cut Pro), is beyond me, but basically, I've used K-Lite Codec Pack, and Quicktime. Neither work, although Quicktime does ask for internet connectivity to download resources or something similar (I don't have Internet Access at home). I've used VLC on a friend's PC, and, while it works, there is a very strange, and irritating flicker where there's heavy movement
Where can I get the resource needed, as another party needs to view the clip, and they already have it. So if they can update their codec library or similar, then that would be much better (as I wouldn't need to upload a FullHD Video again)
thanks

I can't open any 60p .mov files in quicktime. Footage was shot on a JVC GY HM150 which is supposed to record in native fcp format. Any ideas how I can open these files successfully?

I can't open any 60p .mov files in quicktime or FCP5. Sometimes in QT the audio plays but not the video. Footage was shot on a JVC GY HM150 which is supposed to record in native fcp format. Any ideas how I can open these files successfully?

Get ClipWrap2 and convert to an editable format for your version of FCP5.
Probably DVCProHD will work

PLEASE make PS CS6 open RED R3D movie files through Camera Raw 7 as 16 bit/channel files

Hi All,
Why does CS6 Photoshop only open Red R3D movies files as 8 bits per channel ???
This is VERY disappointing , R3D movies should be opened through Camera Raw 7 as 16 bits per channel
Hey Adobe please, Please, PLEASE make this very desirable change
Many thanks
Steve

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the prompt reply. I understand what you are suggesting however in CS6 PS when I open a Red R3D file (on my windows machine)
photoshop opens the file as 8 bit/ch WITHOUT going through ACR, not offering the option of opening it as a 16 bit file in ACR.
I presume PS "thinks" the R3D file is just 8 bit and doesn't "know" to start up Camera Raw 7 to allow opening it as a 16 bit file
No easy fix I'm guessin' ?
Many thanks
All the best
Steve

Not able to import .mov files in pre elements 8

Hi,
Using Pre elements 8 not able to import .mov files ,images stored on external drive (WD)
whenever we import it shows icon in premiere elements 8 about the clip but whenever we drag and drop it onto the timeline it opens the add media window again and if we cancel it we get message --could not locate the some files.
Able to import all kind of supported files images,videos in premiere elements 8 stored already in the computer internal hard drive.
changed the scratch disk, in pre elements 8, to internal c: drive (os).
All the files from the same camera.
Please advice, why it is doing like this.
Vinay

What type of camcorder did this video from?
Version 8 is generally not compatible with video from still cameras, and this video must be converted before it can be edited.
Also, remember that video editors do not actually add your media clips to a project but build connections to them. In other words, once you add a clip to a Premiere Elements project, you MUST maintain a connection to the clip's location. So, if you're connecting to video clips on your external drive, you can not remove your external drive from your computer or this connection will be broken.

HT200261 Configurator Error. Apple Configurator could not open your library.The file couldn't be opened because it isn't in the correct format.

I was using configurator without trouble. Unfortunately, my battery died and my computer went down. I plugged my computer in, restarted it and tried to open configurator. Now this is the error I am getting. Apple Configurator could not open your library.The file couldn’t be opened because it isn’t in the correct format. How do I fix this?

Thank you for responding. The number 2 after the file final cut events is temporary so I can copy it to another drive while I am working on this. . i got a new message that reads...
Final Cut Pro must restore or move corrupted databases before opening.

Safari will not open or download pdf files from web?

Safari will not open or downlaod pdf files from web? IS there a setting, or something else to do this?

Open browser preferences
ex Safari>Preferences>Extentions and un-enable any ext that mabe interferring , ex divX
or open Help> installed Plug-ins and remove Adobe Acrobat.
if still a problem
Quit Safari.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
A Finder window will open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Desktop, leaving the window open.
Launch Safari and test. Its settings will have reverted to what they were they first time you launched it. If it works as expected, recreate the settings and delete the item you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put the file you moved back where it was, overwriting the newer one created in its place.

A Espinoza,
The iTunes Media folder is set in Preferences > Advanced, and is the key to most iTunes folder organizational activities. So I doubt that the automatic deletion will work for files that are somewhere else within the folder structure.
However, I have not experimented with that issue in quite a while, so you are welcome to give it a try in iTunes 11.

Try installing it manually from:

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.

Photoshop CS4 will not open Nikon (NEF) raw files.

I recently tried CS6 Suite. Trial was over and I went back to Photoshop CS4. However, it would not open Nikon (NEF) raw files. I uninstalled and re-installed the PS CS4. This did not fix the problem. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

NEF files from which Nikon camera?

Photoshop CC will not open EOS 40D RAW files

I recently updated to Photoshop CC 2014 but cannot open Canon EOS 40D .CR2 RAW files.
I can open and edit them in Lightroom but if I attempt to 'Edit in...' Photoshop from Lightroom, I get a message suggesting that I update to Photoshop Camera Raw plug-in version 8.6 using the update tool in the Photoshop help menu.
However, the Updates... menu item is greyed out, unavailable.
How can I resolve this issue?

Thank you again, JJMack.
As soon as you start CC 2014 press and hold Ctrl+Alt+shift or CMD+Optiom+Shift Photoshop should prompt it you want your preferences deleted.
I have tried to reset preferences, a couple of times, both by deleting the file 'Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Prefs.psp' and by using the keyboard shortcut you suggest (also to both older versions of Photoshop on my drive) but the 'Update...' option under Help remains greyed out (on all versions).
All PS version install by default on the Boot disk and happy coexist. Problem arise when you install newer version of PS then use Adobe uninstllers to un-install previous versions. Often this process messes up file associations of the newer install. I just delete the install tree.
I don't recall ever having used an uninstaller. I have twice cloned my entire boot disk however, complete with all applications including Photoshop, most recently about a year or so ago when switching to a SSD. I don't know if that might have messed things up along the way. I have no idea what deleting the install tree entails?
The superscription versions of Photoshop CS6 13.1, CC 14.2.1 and CC 15.0 as well as the perpetual version of CS6 13.0 should have just been updated with ACR 8.6 you should not need to convert to DNG for there version of PS. If your Cannon is very new you may need to convert to DNG for CS5.
Re: Photoshop CC will not open EOS 40D RAW files
My Canon EOS 70D is listed as supported by ACR 8.6 and in fact, having now hunted down the ACR 8.6 download link (why is it so hidden? why isn't incorporated into the Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 installer?) and installed it, Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 does now open my .CR2 files directly in ACR 8.6 in Photoshop.
So problem solved, I guess.
All except the greyed out 'Updates...', which still lingers on.
Thanks again for all your help.
