QuickTime in Safari cannot play video after upgrading to iTunes 10.2

After upgrading to iTunes 10.2 and QuickTime 10 on my MacBook Pro, the latest Quicktime version embedded in Safari is behaving strangely. When I want to play video on certain websites like " http://www.lynda.com/Aperture-3-tutorials/essential-training/59221-2.html ", the Quicktime logo on Safari browser appears and just sits there with sound only. I tried it on Firefox, the video can only be played on the lower part of my suddenly splitted screen, there is an "error" message on a Quicktime logo background.
Could anybody help me solve the problem. By the way, all these videos can be played normally on my Windows 7 desktop using both Firefox and Safari for Windows.

To make the matter more weird, the QuickTime plays normally on my Safari after I log out and switch to the administrator account of the MacBook Pro. When I change back to a normal account, the QuickTime error takes place again. It seems there must be something I configured wrongly.

I'm using OS X Mavericks and Safari cannot play videos on Apple website. Any clue?

Usually, that's due to a DivX plug-in or Safari extension... start with Safari - Preferences - Extensions & switch them off. If nothing there, see Safari - Help - Installed Plug-ins & note any that are for DivX.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions..
Try uninstalling then reinstalling the latest version of Flash.
Uninstall Flash
Install the most recent version of Flash here.
Then repair disk permissions...
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

My iPad2 will not play videos after I upgraded to IOS 5.1.1. How can I fix it?at?, My iPad2 will not play videos afteri upgraded to IOS 5.1.1. How cani ix that?

I have an ipad2. Ever since I upgraded to the IOS 5.5.1 I am having problems playing videos on Netflix or YouTube. I do to have this problem on my laptop, so it isn't in my wireless router. I have cleaned out the cache on the iPad and that didn't help. I've restarted it too.
I hope someone has an idea how to fix it. I'm lost without it now.
Thanks.

Do the videos start to play and quit? Do they not start at all?
Close all apps and restart the iPad and then try YouTube or Netflix again.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can also try resetting/rebooting the iPad and see if that helps.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Even if your the internet is OK with other applications doesn't mean that there isn't an issue with the way that the iPad is connecting to NetFlix and YouTube. You can always try rebooting your router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

Video iPod Stopped Playing Video After Upgrade to 1.2

Hi everyone.
I upgraded mine and my boss' 5th Generation iPods (both are 60 Gig) to version 1.2.
Mine works fine, but he is getting on an airplane and his video stopped working after a few minutes of watching a movie.
Aside from reloading the software (which isn't an option at this point as he is on the plane) does anyone have any suggestions?
Has this happened to anyone else?
I can tell him to reset it, but any other ideas??
Thanks for your replies.

I also just upgraded to ITunes V.7 and IPod Updater 1.2
Now I can no longer view any of my videos (which I purchased online from Apple Music Store) on my iTunes...AND after upgrading to V1.2... now they won't download into any of my 3 iPods either!
(error msg: Video X was not copied because the video format was not supported by your iPod)...these Apple-supplied Pixar videos are in MPEG4 (.m4V format)?

Problem with videos after upgrading to iTunes 9.0?

Something went wrong with my videos after I upgraded to iTunes 9.0! The videos are twice as long as they were originally. Let's say this video was actually 1 minute long. It is now 2 minutes long. For the first minute it plays normally, then for the second minute, it just repeats itself, but with no sound.
Is anyone having this problem? I uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime, but that didn't help at all. Help!

@atpcliff,
You mean, the vids you purchased from the official iTunes store does not play on iTunes itself....?? :O :O That shocks me to the core. May be the DRM-protection present in the files you purchased previously does not support the newest version of iTunes. Try calling the Apple support for help and explain them your situation. Otherwise, you might have to roll back to the previous working version of iTunes for those videos to play, since they wont play on other video players anyways.
@threadstarter,
Hmm...Is your issue fixed by now ? Any work-arounds ? I suggest you try this : Uninstall all Apple products installed in your computer, like iTunes, Quicktime, Apple Mobile Support, Apple Software Update, Safari Web Browser etc. If you have trouble in uninstalling them, try uninstalling them in safe-mode. IMPORTANT : Take a back-up of all the files you purchased from iTunes Store. Now use CC Cleaner and remove all registry logs related to Apple products. Restart your comgputer in between each of these steps. Now install the latest versions of all the products afresh. I think this should work. Do revert.

Can't share videos after upgrade to iTunes 7.2

I share videos wirelessly from my iMac to my MacBook Pro which is connected to my widescreen LCD in my living room.
Using Frontrow, after upgrading to 7.2, I now get the message: "This shared video cannot be played. The shared video server may be having problems playing video."
Shared photos and music still play fine.
I've rebooted everything including my Linksys router.
There was no problem playing my shared videos this way with iTunes 7.1
Anyone else having a similar problem, or can anyone offer a hint or solution?
thanks, Chuck

We are working getting a resolution to this issue as well.

Cannot play videos since I updated iTunes

Hey I cannot watch videos through quicktime or itunes, where there should be the video is a flickering green screen, I can still get sound though. What's weird is the videos transfer to my iPod fine and they play ok. I have tried uninstalling iTunes and downloading the latest version from the site and it didn't work, this problem only started when I updated to iTunes 7. Another problem I am having is with the new 'Get Album Artwork' feature, I've got the artwork on iTunes now, but when I sync my iPod it doesnt show up on there. All the other artwork that I got myself is fine, its just the new artwork download via iTunes. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
Samsung Laptop PC Windows XP

okay, let's try something that worked for me when attractive beast wasn't transferring artwork (even though i had "display artwork" enabled).
plug the ipod in, and click on the Music tab. uncheck "display artwork on your ipod" and then click "Apply".
after itunes has done its thing, recheck "display artwork on your ipod" and then click "Apply".
does the artwork transfer to the ipod?

Cannot delete tracks after upgrading to iTunes 9

I upgraded to iTunes 9 today. Added a 14 tracks from a new album. Then when I went in to the tag details to bulk edit the album name, it only edited 13 of 14 tracks. I selected only the last track to try and edit it singularly, but the tag info has been grayed out and I cannot touch it. I cannot delete this track, I cannot edit it, and if I delete the whole album, just this track stays.
I checked permissions and I have the rights to read write this track. The permissions for this one track are no different from any other. Help!

I've encountered problems similar to this. Here's how I've dealt with it.
First, carefully examine permissions issues and refresh the iTunes library info if necessary. If you don't have write permissions for the folder containing the files or for the files themselves, iTunes will refuse to rewrite the tags even though it appears to take. You can set this by going to the Finder and using Get Info. If you've already added the files to your iTunes library while they were write locked for you, you will need to clear them from your iTunes library. For this, I typically copy the source audio to another location, delete the original location, remove dead tracks from iTunes (using Doug's Super Remove Dead Tracks ( http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=removedeadsuper )), then copy the files back to their original location (with all permissions issues solved) and trying adding to iTunes again.
Even trying this, I've found some strangely coded mp3 audio tracks that don't allow you to alter tags in iTunes. I've gotten around this by importing each mp3 track into Fission (third party app) and saving back out as a new file. Fission doesn't reencode the audio, so you don't get additional lossy degradation. Doing this will clear up the quirky file headers/wrapper/metadata to make it iTunes tag friendly. While this last solution is tedious, it does fix finicky files.

5th gen iPod lost and will not play videos after connecting to iTunes

I have a 5th gen iPod. When last connecting to iTunes, videos and movies disappeared. Purchased a new movie that iTunes says was compatible with 5th gen, movie won't transfer to iPod. My settings state that I will manually manage videos and music. Performed all 5 "R"s and iPod still won't accept movies "...can't be played on this iPod"

Let's try the following user tip with that one:

Iphone 4 wont play videos after upgrade ios 4.3.2

I wonder if anybody can poine me in the right direction.
I have an Iphone 4 running the latest iOS 4.3.2, the problem is that I can't play non-native videos on my iphone using Apps such as Azul Media Player or VLC. Both afore mentioned Apps are supposed to make viewing of non-native formats such as .mpeg. avi, etc possible, - indeed they DID prior to latest iOS upgrade.
Now it might be worth mentioning that Ive upgraded my iphone to latest iOS but Ive also installed a new Windows based PC at home. I'll tell you why ive mentioned this.
Originally video files where imported to my iPhone via Itunes which was running on an old X86 Windows Based PC - Windows XP Pro SP3
verything was fine, no problems importing using iTunes File Sharing and equally no problems viewing videos using Azul Media Player.
Yesterday seems to be where everything seemed to go heywire!
I took delivery of a new Acer AX3950 Computer running 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium.
I installed 64-bit Itunes then reinstalled a back-up of data from DVD which contained all Music Albums, Apps etc. I then connected my iPhone 4 to my new PC and sync'd - everyhting went smoothly just as anticipated, all data restored lost nothing.
Then, Im prompted to upgrade to latest iOS 4.3.2, which I did.
All files downloaded, unpacked and went thought the verification process with Apple Inc, iPhone was preparred to receive latest iOS then the installation began, - and subsequently failed before completion. I was then offered the choice of performing a recovery - losing all Music Albums, Apps restoring my Iphone to its native factory settings, - which was my only option at this stage. So, I opted to perform a recovery, - which failed also!
Now im left with an iPhone 4 in my hand which is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard. There was a picture on the screen which depicted a USB data cable with the words Recovery Mode above. Then, low and behold, I had a bright spark of an idea...
I went and fetched my old X86 based Windows XP Pro SP3 computer set it up and connected my iPhone to one of the USB ports.
Then I opened iTunes which detected the phone was in recovery mode and asked if I wanted to Recover my iPhone installing latest iOS and returning it to native factory settings, - again, I had no other option, so I went ahead.
Once again iOS 4.3.2 was downloaded from Apple, unpacked, verified, iPhone was prepared etc..
installation began and continued successfully including reboot, - Yippie! My iPhone 4 sprung into life!
I was then offered the choice of restoring all data from a recent back-up - which I did. After almost 2 hours (despite iTunes contdown timer continually saying 7 minutes remaining) I finally restored my iphone back to what I thought was it's fully working condition. Well almost, apart from the video rendering issue as mentioned.
Now, if you're still with me, - and God knows I hope you are..
This is what I'm wondering..
Why is it I can't play non-native video files on my iPhone 4 since upgrade to latest iOS 4.3.2?
Please help if you can it would be greatly appreiated. - my iPhone is bog-standard issue, all Apps have been purchased via App Store and the phone has not been tampered with - i.e. Jailbroken.
Yours with much respect.

I have the same EXACT problem. it won't play some of my videos, any youtube videos (says it cannot connect to server) and won't play a lot of other internet videos

I cannot play AVI after upgrading to Lion

After a seamless upgrade I now find that Quicktime no longer plays AVI files. I have Flip 4 Mac and Perian installed but now neither of them seems to do the trick as they did in Snow Leopard. Any thought would be appreciated.

Maybe both Flip 4 Mac and Perian need an update

Safari not playing video after iOS 6

Since iOs 6 upgrade none of our iPhones (4 & 4s) nor our two iPads will play the mpeg video from our ip webcams. Worked perfectly before, now safari just sits there with the little activity circle going round and round. The cameras can be accessed as before from a PC, so they are clearly ok.
iOs6 is a great disappointment, having screwed up several things that worked before (apart from the maps debacle!)

It takes several minutes and tries for me to even get a track playing. Screen locks then goes white and then locks for three minutes then I can change tracks. IOS 6.0 is an utter nightmare. Whoever was behind this at Apple needs to be fired for this utter fiasco!!! Steve would have had this happen!

Ipad 2 won't play videos after upgrade to ios5

Did the upgrade and I noticed no videos will play from my playlist.
Video's work fine on iTunes and my iPhone, but for some reason my iPad will only play the audio with a picture where the video should be.
Any one have a thought?
Thanks,
Boris

The same happened to me except it plays some of my music but not all (maybe 1/2). On the songs that won't play, the album artwork comes up and the status bar that indicates elapsed time moves as if the song is playing, but I get no sound. Other songs work fine. Also, the songs that don't play are a mix between songs loaded from my CD collection and songs purchased on iTunes. PLEASE HELP!!
