AppleTV can't play movies from MobileMe, wrong format ?

The first time I accessed MobileMe Gallery on ATV it all worked fine, for photos and a medium sized movie. I decided to change the movie size to large, I took the medium off the gallery and shared the large movie from iMovie. I tried to view the movie on ATV, but got a message that it could not show the movie because it's the wrong format. So I changed it back to medium, but still got the no show message. How did the movie format change, I used iMovie every time.

Your video needs to conform to the sizes/frame/bit rates described here:

  • Can't play movie from gallery on mac

    I can not play movies from my gallery on my macbook. These movies are imported from Canon A630 to iPhoto. In iPhoto I can play them well. All of them are published to my mobileme gallery using iPhoto. Then I open this gallery in Safari on my macbook to check if everything was published. And when I try to play a movie QuickTime tells me that it needs some additional software and directs me to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.htmlos=OSX&ctype=696d6463&cs ubtype=4d4a5047
    I visited this page earlier and installed divx, xvid, recode raw and ensharpen codecs. Also I have Perian and Flip4mac installed codecs. So my main question is: why can't I play movies from gallery using safari if in the same time I can view them well from iPhoto?
    Playing of movies published with iMovie works well. But this does not matter to me since I want videos to be published in events with photos. If iPhoto has functionality to publish videos so it must work! Also I must mention that videos published with iPhoto can be played without problems from my PC with safari+quick time for windows. But under my Mac none of Safari, Firefox and Camino can view videos from my gallery. So I think problem is in QuickTime.

    Anybody?????? Im using web premium CS5.5 it seems ludicrous that by default it lets every website play content on my computer but regards my own content as a security risk and wont let me rectify the problem!

  • When I connect my iPhone 5 to my laptop and iTunes, I can't play movies from the iPhone on my computer.Why is that? Can I do this or it's not possible with iPhone5? With my iPod it's no problem.

    Reinstall iTunes. Make sure you follow the instructions in this support document to the letter. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923.
    You may have some problems because Apple has not certified that everything works with Windows 8 yet.

  • Latest version of itunes does not support Quicktime can not play movie from library

    Latest version of Itunes does not support Quicktime.  I can not play movies out of my itunes.  Please fix

    I don't usually download video from the iTunes store. I had a couple of long plane rides coming up and thought I might have time to watch the Stanford IOS7 programming class. On the plane I discovered this issue which has gone unaddressed since 2011 and has been worsened in Mavericks. in 2011 the advice was to open iTunes' get info pane and click run in 32 bit. That worked at least for some people. In Mavericks, iTunes will not launch in 32 bit.
    For the files you can locate in the finder ( mine are at
    /Users/raine001/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Media/iTunes\ U/Developing\ iOS\ 7\ Apps\ for\ iPhone\ and\ iPad/1.\ Class\ Logistics\,\ Overview\ of\ iOS\,\ MVC\,\ Objective-C.mp4
    ) you can click on the file in the finder and it will launch in QuickTime. For some reason on the plane I could see the first lecture in the iTunes view but, although I could see all the other lectures in the finder, I could not see the first one.
    Ah well, maybe some other year I'll think about getting up to speed on ios7. Heck, maybe by then they will design a decent user experience.

  • Can't play movies from library on Apple tv

    I have been streaming purchased content from my PC to my apple tv with no problems until today.   I can see my PC library displayed on the apple tv menu on my tv.  I can select a movie to play but after a bit of spinning I end up with the message "authorization is required" and instructions on how to authorize my PC through itunes.  I have tried so many different things to correct this but with no luck.  I have deauthorized and authorized.  I removed all other authorized computers, so my PC is the only one of the five that is authorized.  I have reset my apple tv.  The problem is not the ATV2 because it recognized my library from my PC but it will not play. I only have one apple ID so I know that is not the problem.  I can play all purchased on my PC and stream it to the apple tv via airplay.  But I cannot directly play a movie due to the "authorization is required message."  I have no idea what to do.  Any ideas, or similar issues anyone has been able to resolve? 

    Since yesterday, many AppleTV users around the world have been experiencing the same issue.  From what I've been able to tell from other postings, it's related to the Apple servers - they are being upgraded for the iCloud and many Apple TV users are getting the "Need to Authorize Computer" message when they try to play a TV show or movie.  Your iTunes movie RENTALS and MUSIC should still work though. 
    A get-around is to stream your TV shows and purchased movies.  To do that, start the movie or TV show in iTunes on your computer as if you are going to watch it on your computer.  Once it starts to play, click on the little icon in the lower right-hand corner (hover your mouse around the area to get it to show up)....and then click on "Apple TV" (one of the two options the little icon gives you).....that will start it streaming on your TV.  It's going to "push" it to your APple TV box rather than it being pulled there by Apple TV itself.

  • Can I play movies from iPad to blu ray player?, Can I play movies from iPad to blu ray player?

    How do you play movie on a blu ray from the iPad ?

    Subject of your posts seems to be asking if you can take movies from the iPad and play them on a BluRay player. No, you can't, though there are ways to connect your iPad to a television. The body of your post seems to be asking if you can take BluRay movies and play them on your iPad. No. Commercial DVDs are encrypted. In order to make a copy, you'd need to break that encryption. That's illegal in the U.S., so, we're not able to talk about it on this forum. Sorry.

  • Iphone can't play movie in mobileme gallery

    I logged onto to my 3G or GPRS and tried playing my uploaded movie in my mobileme gallery but it states "this movie can not be played". However, when I converted to Wifi at home, it was able to access and play the video.
    Can anyone explain why this is the case? Is it some configuration necessary to make it accessible via 3G or GPRS?

    Bring the movie in question into iTunes first. Select the movie and from the Advanced menu select "create iPod or iPhone version". iTunes will create the proper format movie for the iPhone. Upload that one to the Gallery and you are done. The file then works from Windows, Macs and the iPhone.

  • Can't play movies from iphoto in snow leopard.

    When I double click on a movie in iphoto nothing happens. But when I drag it onto quicktime it will play. Any suggestions? I'm using itunes 7.1.5 if that helps.

    If you do a Command+i on a file you'll get this window:
    Click to view full size
    However, changing the default application to Quicktime Player 7 does not let iPhoto open it in that application. It still opens in the new Quicktime Player app.
    I found a "bug" in the new QT Player. If your have a movie at 320 x 240 QT Player opens it at 478 x 359 which is the minimum window it can be set to. That makes the playback of files less than that size pixelated/fuzzy.

  • Can't Play Movies from Cloud

    Hi,
              Quite simply, I'm having a bit of bother playing/streaming films without downloading. Is this a problem with my (seemingly fully-functional) wifi, or something with iTunes itself?
    Thanks,
                        D.

    What speed does your ISP state that it provides for you. Mine claims 6 Mbps, but with the normal so-called 'overhead' which includes packets of data being routed & rerouted all over the place, I usually get a reading of 5 Mbps at best according to this website > http://www.ip-adress.com/speedtest/
    I also run Little Snitch Network Monitor which reveals that iTunes servers (which rely heavily on Akamai's servers) usually top out (for me at least) at about a paltry ~618 kB/s.
    So that is why I always download everything in full from iTunes before playing as I just don't want to be bothered w/any annoying content buffering; especially as it's content that I pay for.
    Best Regards,

  • Appletv can't play bloomberg, wsj, trailer. . .

    My appletv can't play video from bloomberg, wsj, vimeo . . . Randomly with YouTube since I change to my new Buffalo WBMR HP G300H. The error prompt is: wsj live is unavailable. I'm in Vietnam. What should I do?  Thanks!

    That's not an option for me; the Apple TV is in a cabinet with all the rest of my AV gear.
    It's just a workaround to the problem, in any case. If Apple didn't intend the Apple TV to be an always-on device (at least in theory) they would've put a power switch on it. I'd really like them to fix it.

    As the video is downloaded from iTunes it should be in the right format. It could be a DRM rights issue. Watch this video of how to watch DRM iTunes video on a wi-drive via Safari - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ta6cCegKBqQ
