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

  • ATV will see homeshare but will not load and play video.

    ATV2 will see and connect to my homeshare library but when I try to watch anything (Movie, TV Show, etc) it shows the loading animation for about 5 minutes and then says that an error has occurred. It was all working two days ago but stopped working when we had a power outage. I have tried resetting the computer, the ATV2, and the router. I have also tried restoring the ATV2. Nothing works. Again, it will allow me to select a video to watch but will try to load and fail.
    ATV2- up to date.
    iTunes- up to date.
    iMac- up to date.
    No Firewall.
    I am not sure what else to do here guys... I have tried literally EVERYTHING that I have found in these support topics and everything that I could think of to get this to work again. I also have an ATV3 in the other room and it is working fine. I know it is NOT a bandwidth issue because everything was working just fine until the power outage 2 days ago which lasted only about 2 seconds..
    Any suggestions?
    About ready to drop-kick this thing and go get a new ATV3 from the Apple Store...
    HELP?!
    Mahalo (Thanks) for any help you can give!
    Steve.

    I am sorry to see that no one replied to this issue.  has it been resolved?  Unfortunately not for me.  I am having the same problem.  Interestingly enough I can play music files from my homesharing iTunes library but I cannot play any video content - including music video. 
    APT2 Loads content (take at least 3 min.)
    Indicates that the movie is there
    I click play or select
    The gear starts spinning
    5 minutes later I get the error message: An error occurred loading this content.  Try again later.
    I have not changed anything in the house regarding computers or routers - other than updating Apple TV 2

    I have purchased itunes tv series, movies and music and have transferred them onto an external hard drive and tried to play them on my tv on a media hub.  The file will not load.  Is there some form of blocking by itunes or another p[roblem and how do I fix it?

    You can't fix it.  iTunes bought content is DRM protected. so it can only be played on authorized devices.  i.e devices associated with the apple Id used to purchase the content.  Its copyright protection that the rights owners demand.
    Circumventing it, is illegal in most countries, and as such cannot be discussed here.  If you want to play the content you'll need to connect your computer directly to your TV, or use some other device you can authorize for iTunes content such as an iPad, iPhone , iPod touch or Apple Tv.

    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
    First..
    1. Have you updated from 13 to the 13.1 Update using an opened project's Help Menu/Update. If not, please do so.
    2. Do the problems exist if you disable the antivirus and firewall(s)?
    3. Are you running the program as Administrator? Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
    4. Have you refreshed the Online Services using Premiere Elements Editor Edit Menu/Preferences/Web Sharing?
    5. Have you updated the Adobe Application Manager?

    6.Is your video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the card?
    7. Lots more we could go through such as deleting the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and, if necessary, the whole
    13.0 Folder in which it exists.
    But, I think that you have enough things going on here to warrant an uninstall, free ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts) and then reinstall with the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
    CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
    If the problems persist after all that then we will adjust to additional troubleshooting maneuvers.
    Any questions or need clarification, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

    I have them loading into the images folder that is in the htdocs folder.
    I stated in my previous question that I am self taught via the adobe DW tutorial. I had a catastrophic computer crash and had to reload everything. I apparently did not tell DW which file to load into before and now that is fixed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I was never a big fan of using DW to FTP. There are several FTP programs that you might find work better than DW. For example Filezilla, free and works pretty darn well.
    http://filezilla-project.org/
    For me, being able to graphically see my local site on one half my screen and the site as it sits on the server on the other half of the screen really helps me quickly spot problems if I upload something and it doesn't display.
    Anyway... DW is not the only option for loading files to your server.

  • Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11.

    Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11. The thumbnail of the movie shows but when selected only a exclamation mark appears.  I rebuilt the library, thumbnails, permissions etc. I also found the movie files in the iphoto database intact and working. Please advise.

    You're welcome.
    Well believe it or not, that's exactly what the exclamation point means. Search the forum. I've been doing this a while.
    Next, I have no interest, commercial or otherwise in Library Manager, I have no shares in the company that makes it. I didn't make it. It's not my software.  You could give those guys a million dollars and I'll get nothing from it. I and other expereinced users have recommended it thousands of times on this forum for this problem. Amazing how often it works. Of course, a quick search would have told you that already.
    Another: Believe it or not you can use the Rebuild Function of Library Manager for free. You don't need to purchase it for that purpose.
    Y'all have a nice paranoid day now.

  • When I try to email a photo as an attachment the iphoto file will not load

    When I try to email a photo as an attachment the file will not load?

    Open iPhoto, and then go to Preferences (under iPhoto in the menu bar).  Check these two things:
    1.  Under the "General" tab, make sure you have set "Email photos using" to "iPhoto".
    2.  Under the "Accounts" tab, be sure your email account information is set correctly.

  • After downloading latest quicktime update, itunes store will not load

    Has anyone had this same problem after downloading latest quicktime update. iTunes store will not load.

    This happened to me today as well post installing the latest version of itunes.   I did a search on google for the error and came across a recommendation to :
    Note: Start Windows in Safe Mode to complete any of the following steps if you're unable to access Windows normally due to the msvcr80.dll error.
    If, and only if, you're receiving the msvcr80.dll is missing error when you open Apple iTunes, do the following: (skip this step if your msvcr80.dll error is occurring with a different program)
    Uninstall from Windows the following five programs in this order: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, and finally Apple Application Support. If you have iCloud, remove it as well.
    Uninstalling these programs in Windows is done from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
    Note: Songs and playlists in iTunes will not be removed when you uninstall the iTunes program or any of the other, already-mentioned Apple programs. If you'd still like to back them up, they're usually located in the My Music folder in Windows.
    Download the latest version of iTunes from Appleand note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
    Run the iTunes installation as an administrator. If you're not sure how to do that, see How Do I Open an Elevated Command Prompt? for help. That procedure shows you how to open the Command Prompt program as an administrator, but the steps are essentially the same for anything, including the iTunes installation package you just downloaded.
    A general overview of removing and reinstalling iTunes can also be found here on Apple's site but the above procedure seems to work better in this particular situation.

  • After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.  10.6.7 now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.

    After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.7. and now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.  Update Software says I need to do update to 10.6.7 which I can't do because administrator privileges are gone.   I didn't back-up with Time Machine ,BAD, but I have all files backed-up on another hard drive.  Should I just reformat and start over?  Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

    PROBLEM SOLVED! For me at least!
    Apple Support gave me the clue - I had run Migration Assistant, and it had obligingly replaced a system file (/Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager) with the equivalent from my old system.
    I reinstalled 10.6.7 using the DVD supplied and all is well.
    The moral is - don't use Migration Assistant.
    Along the way Apple Support provided me with a link to download Combo update 10.6.7: this could not be installed on my iMac.
    Hope this helps.

  • My Nikon 7100 RAW files will not load into Iphoto.

    My Nikon 7100 RAW files will not load into IPhoto.  The computer will recognize the files once the download is complete, but fails to finalize.  My version of IPhoto is 7.1.5 and my computer is a Mid 2007 Mac Mini Model.  I have Light Room 5, but my wife and I are prefer IPhoto for basic download and sharing.  Is there a possibility  of getting the RAW files to download ?

    what version of the OS?
    You need Mt Lion and iPhoto '09 for your camera RAW support - OS X Mountain Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats -
    If your computer will support tMavericks do the free upgrade to it and purchase the upgrade to iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x in the App store
