Additional software is required...

I am trying to play a .mov movie I had on a mac mini on my macbook. I have Qt 7.2 on both machines. The movie plays fine on the mac mini but I get a "additional software is required..." message when I try to play it on the Macbook. Do I need to download one of the QT plugins from the apple website?
Thank you for your help

Ensure that you have two and for now only two installed (by you that is, not Apple) codecs - Flip4mac ( the free one) and Perian V1.0 (free) and that generally solves 95% of the issues like this. Expunge DivX, XVid, 3ivX , Casio etc., once you have Perian.

  • "Additional software is required for Quick Time to playback this media"

    I am trying to view the footage shot in DVCproHD. I can hear people talking, but all I can see is a black screen.
    When I try to open a clip, I get the message "additional software is required for QuickTime to playback this media. It may be available from the QuickTime Components page."
    When I click on "continue," it takes me to a page with 11 different components listed, but no hint as to which component will help me view the .mov files.
    Any idea what additional software I need to view these Hi Def files?

    A friend of mine let me know that for $80 I could get 'Calibrated{Q} XD Decode'. That software requires Mac intel -- but I have access to such a machine in my office so I am good to go. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me.

  • "Additional software is required for quicktime to playback this media."

    I am trying to open a .mov file with QuickTime, but every time I try, I get the message that additional software is needed to play it.  A pop-up window then directs me to a page where I can download a handful of different components.  I have no idea which one, if any, would help me to play the movie.
    I can press the "play" button, but I only see a black screen, and there is no audio.
    I am not very tech savvy at all, so I'm not sure what informatin would be necessary to help answer this question, so I'm just going to copy down some of the video's properties:
    VIDEO

    -Total bitrate: 2192 kbps

    Also, I am running Windows 7.
    Thank you so much--if you can help me out I would really appreciate it!

    Sorry.
    I don't know what else to try.
    It's a complicated world with Windows and Apple and media formats. Microsoft ended support for the Mac OS and their proprietary Windows formats when they switched from the AVI container to the WMP container formats.
    Apple (QuickTime) hasn't "changed the rules" and offers both Mac and Windows users a version of their product. Backward compatibility (older formats) still works in most cases.
    But your file is really WMP (based on the codecs). It may only work on a Mac that also has a software "bridge" know as Flip4Mac.

  • Quicktime "Additional software is required..."

    When leaving some pages being browsed [http://i40.tinypic.com/xp3qcx.png this message] pops up. Disabling the Quicktime plugin seems to stop the message from showing up, yet I'd rather not disable the plugin if possible. If I click "Continue" there is no software to download, just an informative Apple page that doesnt help. Also from what I can tell there is no Quicktime media on the page. It's a web portal for Zimbra Email.

  • What additional software requirements are needed when using Captivate with RoboHelp?

    Hello,
    I use RoboHelp HTML 6 & 8 for developing online manuals for our government business.  We are currently exploring eLearning options for our training needs, and I am considering the idea of implementing Captivate features (PP slides, simulations, animations) directly into the manuals. We would not need the collaborative/review aspects of Captivate, so I believe we wouldn't need to purchase Adobe Air additionally. However, would anyone be willing to give me the lowdown on what additional software either I would need as a developer, or end-users would need (Adobe Flash, I assume) if we decided on Captivate? Would we need addtional software (Connect Pro/ LMS) to publish the Captivate content?
    I have conducted an extensive online search and explored the forum threads with some success, but there is a lot of convoluted information out there!
    Thanks in advance for your help!!

    Hi there
    Speaking as one who regularly combines Captivate and RoboHelp...
    Unless you really want some functionality that Captivate alone simply does not provide, you really shouldn't need any additional software whatsoever. You record the eLearning bits in Captivate, then you use that content in your RoboHelp projects.
    Are you seeking to host things in a Learning Management System (LMS)? If so, you probably should abandon the thought of RoboHelp, as it serves a bit of the functionality the LMS would provide.
    Note that AIR is a functionality similar to the Flash Player or the PDF Reader. It is free for the taking by the end user. There is nothing one would need to purchase. Now if you want to *AUTHOR* something in AIR, that's a different story. RoboHelp HTML version 8 will produce an AIRHelp output. But it sounds to me that you may be somewhat unfamiliar with what AIR gives you. So here's the skinny.
    If you were to produce AIRHelp output from RoboHelp, you end up with a .AIR file that each of your end users must *INSTALL* just as they would have to install an application. That's just to view the help. Prior to installing your AIR output, they would also need to first *INSTALL* the AIR viewer. So if they had no AIR capability whatsoever, they would need to perform two different installs. One of the AIR runtime, and a second of your AIR output. Additionally, creating the AIR output will also require a digital certificate. Now RoboHelp will allow you to create one, but it's an untrusted certificate and the end user will be forced to acknowledge whether they wish to continue installing with an untrusted certificate.
    Anyhoo, hopefully that helps you with at least some of what you were looking for.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Quick Time additional software

    (Sorry for the previous topic, I've made a mistake...) Hi, I've a problem with Quick Time Pro: when I open some video files, I don't hear the audio and it comes a message that says that "quick time requires an additional software to play this file"; it leads me to a page of apple.com where there are a lot of links to download codec and other... My question is: what I have to download to play also the audio of these files?

    Try this free component:
    http://perian.org/#download
    It's free and should open that video file.

  • HT204382 to see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie

    to see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie

    Generally, this requires installing Perian, or the free version of Flip4Mac if the movie is an unprotected WMV file, or using VLC. Some formats, such as protected WMV files, can't be played in Mac OS X.

  • Need Additional Software

    When I receive some video files in my email and I go to play them, it says that I need additional software because Quicktime cannot play the attachment. I have included the actual "error" message.
    The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands.You may need to install additional software to open this type of file.
    Not sure what else to install.

    As you are running a very old version of OS 10.3 it is difficult to answer your question, simply because the various applications and add-ons you need may not work now with that old system.
    With that proviso:
    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear/play pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    Download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 11.1 for Mac from:
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/15540
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    You should also ensure that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2009-001 (and for Tiger only, 2009-002 and 003). (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    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/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    And there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash could be. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards) if you are using a PPC Mac, but even this will not work with Safari 4. Version 2 only works with Intel Macs and does work with Safari 4:
    http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
    Recommendation: Close all applications before installing any of the above, repair permissions, reboot, and repair permissions again.

  • Lost my contacts and calendar since update and statesThe iPhone cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 1 MB required).e

    I lost my contacts and calendar, and photos since the iOS update and and it states that my iPhone cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the iTunes library (additional 1 MB required).   Also it shows that I am over capacity on my Capacity ruler but how do I unload some of that stuff so that I can increase my capacity and perhaps get this synching to work again. 
    So frustrating!!

    On your iPhone go to settings>general>about and next to "Available" if you dont have much space then you will need to delete stuff on the phone to make room to take photos by deleting stuff on the phone.
    In terms of syncing change what you are syncing and decide what you would really want and not want on your phone which would make what is syncing to the phone smaller.
