A Movie in a Window Problem

Hi All,
I have runned into another problem with my project that i
wonder if anyone can help me out. I have a movie in a window that
opens in my main project with a simple text-phrase (e.g., say
something). I want when the user clicks on this text phrase to
activate a spcified lingo script into my main movie. I have set up
the whole thing as follows
on prepareMovie
global gDemo
set gDemo to movie ("Greek-English_Non-AIML_Scenario.dir")
---Greek-English-Non-AIML_scenario is my main movie in which
the movie in a window opens
The script of the text-phrase is
on mouseUp
global gDemo
tell gDemo to switchToA
---switchToA is the script that i want to activate in my main
movie
end
I get the following error
"Script error can not perform tell void "
Any idea what is going on?
Many thanks for all your valuable help so far

It appears that sending messages from the main movie to the
MIAW works fine, but i can not figure out the vice verca.
Any ideas will be welcomed
Please help
Thanks

  • Quicktime video for .mov files on Windows 8.1 not working

    I am using the latest Quicktime (v7.7.5) on a new install of Windows 8.1 and .mov files will play but only the audio works - there is no video.  Clearly There is a video codec missing.  Can someone at apple tell me what I need so quicktime (and other applications) can play .mov videos on Windows 8.1?
    Thank you!!!

    Hey Kirk,  thank you for your reply. All my windows media players (Windows, Quicktime, Pinnacle Sudio, etc..all  only play the audio and not the video.  The quicktime player on Windows recogizes a problem and suggests that I goto this website (www.apple.com/quicktime/rescources/components......) and download missing somftware (but gives no indication of what is missing :-)).
    So the Windows Quicktime Player shows that the .mov file is made with the Apple Intermediate Codec, 1308 x 736, Millions 16 bit Integer (little Indidan), Sterdo(LR), 48kHz.   I also looked at the inspector in the Mac.
    This is clearly the issue. I suppose I can always use my Mac to convert files to something more compatible with windows and then move these files.  I just find it hard to believe that Apple does not have a windows 8.x version of this codec. 

  • "Move To New Window" Does Not Work in Version 5. It opens a new window, but it's blank, and the tab I wanted as the new window stays where it is. Is this a bug?

    Right mouse-clicking on a tab and selecting "Move To New Window" should open the contents of the tab in a new window, and then close the original tab on the original instance of FF. But in Version 5, that action simply spawns a new window that is totally blank, and the tab I wanted opened in a new window stays attached to the original window.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • Why does the "Move to new window" function that I used to use not work when I right click on the tab anymore?

    It used to be when I right clicked on the tab in Firefox that I could use the "Move to new window" option. Now when I go down to that option it looks as though it is going to work, but nothing happens. The other day I changed a few options in Firefox, but I don't remember changing anything that sounded as though it would have this effect and now I can't find any options that seem to fix it. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello Beorn, probably the problem is an extension that isn't working correct.'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    thank you

  • Running Worldcraft with Wine (or OpenGL in child window problem)

    Hi!, I'm trying to run Worldcraft (the Half life map editing tool) with wine (version 0.9.30), everything works fine except when I choose to display a 3D view on one of the viewports  (3D views uses OpenGL to render the scene), when I do this, the whole window turns black, and flickers (showing some portion of the original window) when I hit the mouse button of move the window.
    This seems to be the Opengl in child window problem that was supposedly fixed in wine 0.9.28, but, well.. it happens    This happens also with Lightwave 8.0.
    Can anyone try and see if this happens to you as well?  or.. well. does anybody knows how to fix it?
    thanks a lot!
    silencer

    Thanks Nephastos, but I'm trying to run Worldcraft, not Warcraft Worldcraft is a world editing tool for Half-Life.
    I uploaded it to my server if anyone would like to try and see if it works for you (as it is an issue that should be solved by now, I think),  you can download it from http://www.darkdesigns.com.ar/worldcraft3.exe
    Thanks a lot

  • External monitor stutters when playing movies and moving windows

    I've got a 15' MBP, 2.53 GHz, 4 GB, hooked up to an Acer 22" external monitor via the DVI connection.
    When the external monitor is connected I experience a stuttering problem with both displays, where there's a hesitation in the output every second or two. Movies stutter, and windows hesitate when being moved around.
    This was going on in Leopard, and continues in Snow Leopard. The problem goes away if I'm not using the external monitor. It occurs regardless of which internal graphics chip I'm using.
    It's very frustrating, needless to say.

    Hello Mendeezee,
    Depending on the age of the monitor, you may not be able to playback any HD content that is purchased in iTunes. One way to check is to download the SD version that comes with the HD version. Check out the articles below for more clarification. 
    iTunes for Windows: Unable to view or play HD video content that requires HDCP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3354
    iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3209
    In iTunes for Windows, in order to view HD content, both the display hardware (computer screen, LCD, external monitor, and so on) and video card driver must support HDCP.
    Note: Depending on your computer's hardware limitations, you may be unable to purchase, rent, or view HD content from the iTunes Store. If you are trying to view HD video on an external display, the display must have a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI) and support HDCP.
    Regards,

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -

    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.

    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • My playlist has dissapeared itune issue or windows problem?

    My playlist has dissapeared from libraray itunes issue or windows problem?

    Hi,
    It's pointless to use that ammount of ram under Win9x/Me as it will be slower then if you use only 256MB witch is the optimal ammount for these OS'ses.
    So you better take 256 out or move to Win2000/XP....

    PS CS5 Extended on Windows
    When trying to use the clone stamp and/or healing brush as soon as I move the cursor from the toolbar over to the image I get an exact copy of the existing layer that moves around the window with the movement of the clone stamp/healing brush.  This just started tonight.  What's causing this weird behaviour?

    What are the settings in Window > Clone Source?

  • How can I move my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library (with my cps ripped) to my Mac iTunes library?

    Just for my curiosity and knowledge,
    I have a PC (Windows 7) and a Mac (OS X 10.10).
    Both of them with the latest version of iTunes.
    Both of them with the exact music library (genre, artist, album, etc).
    All my music is coming from iTunes Store, so very easy to re download at any time I want with my Apple ID
    My PC (Windows 7) computer has a CD/DVD drive. I would like to RIP some music from my CDs and add them to my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library. 
    Once I finished, how can I move my PC (Windows 7) iTunes library (with my cps ripped) to my Mac iTunes library?
    Thank you so much

    If you've downloaded the media idependently to each library so far then thet won't be exactly the same as there are different naming rules for the files and folders in OS X and Windows. See Make a split library portable for some general advice. You can move a portable library between Mac and Windows, but there is a delay opening the library after each change of OS.
