Are QT.SMIL files no longer supported in the browser?

Try as I may, I cannot get a .qt.smi file to embed to a web page. I always get Failed To Load even though all the files (.mov, .txt, and smi) are all in the same folder. Here are the embed tags I'm using:
<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" width="320" height="306" standby="Data is loading..." codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab">
<param name="src" value="springbreak.qt.smi">
<param name="autoplay" value="true">
<param name="controller" value="true">
<embed src="springbreak.qt.smi" width="320" height="316" scale="1" autoplay="true" controller="true" type="video/quicktime" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</embed>
</object>
The movie plays fine when I load the .smi file into the QT player from the desktop. Just doesn't work in the browser (neither Safari nor Firefox).

Also, if I link directly to the .smi file, the browsers will download it instead of playing it with the QT plugin. I have SMIL checked in my QT Preferences mime settings also. It thinks it's some kind of disk image that fails to mount when I double-click on it after it downloads.

Error Message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed?

I am trying to get media from my computer, and I only receive this error message :
This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed?
What should I do? I have a window 8 laptop. My video files are from my itouch/ipod. I am using Premiere Elements 7.
I have used this software with success before. HELP would greatly be appreciated!

darlingdarleen
Did both laptop 1 and 2 have QuickTime (latest version or any version) installed on the computers with Premiere Elements 7 when you got this "this type of file......" message?
If you go to the opened Premiere Elements 7 projects involved and look at Share/Personal Computer/QuickTime, do you find that QuickTime Presets are shown and that you find export settings choices under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab?
Look at the file name of the video. Do you see any irregularies in the name of the file, dots and such?
If you record new iPod footage, open a new Premiere Elements project, and import that iPod footage, do you still get the error message? Putting aside, iTouch, what model iPod are these videos coming from?
Thanks.

How to solve "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed"?

Hi all,
I've just started using a new computer with WIndows 8.1 within the last week and have loaded my Adobe Premiere Elements 11.0 software into it.
In trying to view and edit a video I created on my old computer, I got "Media Pending" and "Media Offline" notices as soon as I began. The source files are located on an external drive with a permanent letter designation. I began the process of reconnecting my Project Assets files with the source files this morning, but have now encountered a new roadblock. Each time I try, I get the message "this type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed." It offers no information or options other than to click "OK," which is not very helpful.
All the source files are located in one folder on my external drive. I have been able to reconnect the JPEGs and the mp3 source files but not the AVI video files.
Here are three screenshots. The first is the "Media Offline" message, the second is the message I receive when I try to reconnect my Project Assets to the source files and the third is a screenshot of the codecs installed on the new computer.
Here is my new computer information:
Model: Del Inspiron 3847
Intel Core i5-4460
CPU @ 3.20 GHz 3.20 GHz
RAM 8 GB
System type: 64-bit, x64-based processor
I hope someone can guide me. What do I need to do to solve this problem?
Thank you.

Thank your for the information supplied.
But, what are the properties of this .avi file that you seek?
Video Compression
Audio Compression
Frame Size
Frame Rate
Interlaced or Progressive
Pixel Aspect Ratio
Right now of prime interest is the video compression that is being wrapped by that AVI wrapper/container.
AVCHD.avi
MotionJPEG.avi
XviD.avi
DviX.avi
other
There are instances were a particular video compression or a particular container/wrapper format is each supported by Premiere Elements, but
not a combo of those particular two. But, in this instance, I suspect this to be a MotionJPEG video codec issue, but your details will
point us to the actual situation, and we will plan troubleshooting strategy from there.

This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.

About two months ago, I was able to edit these files and create videos from them. Now I get the following message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.
Aside from regular Windows updates, nothing has been added or removed from my PC.
I’m using fully patched Windows 7
Premiere Elements 8.0
Canon T2I Hi def movies are .MOV

I can't believe that tech challenged moi is replying to the codec issue. I bought a new computer with Windows 7. I won't go into the tech issues with a Windows update.... Anyway I downloaded Photoshop Elements 8 and figured out how to import my photos and videos to Photoshop on the new comptuter. Photos were fine but videos wouldn't play. I got the messages about Apple's Quicktime required and then the "required codec is not installed". I went "What is a "codec"!
I downloaded Quicktime which went smoothly but I still had the "required codec not installed" message to deal with. I researched and found that it referred to compressed/decompressed files(?) Next I googled "Windows 7 codec download" (not even sure if there was one). There was! I clicked on the first result and downloaded the codec. The info stated that this codec should read 99.9% of video files. Went back to Photoshop and clicked on the blue video thumbnail. It worked!!! The video played just as it did on the old computer.
Hope this helps someone else. Now why would Windows 7 not include this codec in the first place. I never had to download one before on other computers. Only Quicktime needed downloading. Oh, well.

HT5278 If ios 5.1.1 on iPad 1 is no longer supported, is the device safe to use for credit card payments?

Hi All, anyone, or just helpful users,
If ios 5.1.1 on iPad 1 is no longer supported, is the device safe to use for credit card payments?
I know the reasons why Apple no longer update IOS for Ipad 1.
Due to end of life support, no bug fixes for older apps and constant vulnerabilities being exploited, does this now make the device insecure and vulnerable? either information stored on the device or (especially) when making credit card payments through Safari, etc.
Thanks in advance,

I would say your biggest issue isn't as much your operating system as it is the network you use your device on. For example the most secure device in the world can be used at McDonalds open wifi and have its info intercepted....and it's not your device's fault rather the connection. Any security program is only as good as its weakest component.
THe iOS operating systems are still very secure because they are highly resistent to viruses and malware....but a user can still click on that 'you won a million dollars' link in an e-mail and hand their personal info over to a hacker.
If you feel you can no longer trust it, then stop using it. But I would say a user's internet connection and behavior are larger security vulnerabilities than any device.

Airport express extension (old model) appears no longer supported by the airport software. What's up?

I was gone for a few days and returned to a message from the Airport Extreme base station that the older airport express which I use as an extension for the network was no longer supported by the updated airport software. Does this mean that the old model can no longer be used anymore for anything? It initially showed a green light on my return, although the message suggested it wasn't. I did a soft, then a hard reset on that device and now it doesn't reset and is not recognized by the main base station at all. Is that the end for this particular piece of hardware? Appreciate any intelligence.

I'm not sure what to suggest other than you may need to downgrade or fall back to an earlier version of the firmware for your Time Capsule. From the AirPort Utility you should see the object that represents your Time Capsule, click on that object then place your mouse/pointer over "Version" while depressing the Option key. You should see a menu of version numbers related to the firmware that the Time Capsule is using. Selecting a previous version number and then clicking "Update" will downgrade you to an earlier version of the firmware. I think the most current is 7.6.4 and I've read some other Apple Discussion posts that say that 7.6.3 is better than the current version. Not sure if this will help but I don't think it will hurt. I've done that on my iMac connected to an AirPort Extreme and while it didn't solve a separate issue I'm having with an older AP Express, it doesn't seem to have caused any issues with my network.

The program used to import and transcode the Can 5D footage but no longer does. The program freezes often and looses my projects as well. Hard to make a living when your editing program is on strike!

Adobe Premiere Elements 12: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed

Hallo! I use Adobe Premiere Elements 12 on my computer (PC, windows 7). When I try do re-open my projects on Adobe Premiere Elements I get the message: This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed. The file type of my saved projects is: Adobe Premiere Elements Project (.prel). The same happens when i try to re-open the auto save files. This is very annoying because I losse all my earlier work. I would be really grateful for help. Best regards, Stefan

With the QT Player installation, you should have Apple's H.264 CODEC.
Maybe this ARTICLE will give you some tips on the GoPro footage.
Good luck,

IE Error: "The content you are trying to view is not supported in the current Document Mode..."

My Captivate 7 project (HTML5) runs just fine on my computer in IE11. My client tried to run it from IE9 and got the following error:
"The content you are trying to view is not supported in the current Document Mode of Internet Explorer. Change the Document Mode to Internet Explorer 9 Standards and try to view the content again. To change the Document Mode, press F12, Click Document Mode:, and then select Internet Explorer 9 Standards."
My guess is that they're running it over their LAN, and IE is subsequently running in quirks mode.
I've changed the metadata in index_SCORM.html from
<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=10">
to
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1">
we'll see if that fixes it....

I've seen a lot of threads about getting rid of these kind of messages. Those messages are there for a reason most of the time. If you have CSS animations or other HTML5 standards that cannot be rendered in IE9 they won't magically start working becuse you got rid of a message. I use IE9 since that is the minimum standard for the client. I have never seen that message publishing to HTML5 content.
IMO, if your client has IE9 I think that you should develop with IE9 in mind not IE11.
When you say "develop with IE9 in mind not IE11" do you mean use SWF instead of HTML5? I used the standard question types, and a converted PowerPoint presentation. I didn't add anything out of the ordinary.

If you use Lion, go to Applications/ Mission Control and, if you have more Desktops, as attached, it means you have more, and you must select the one you need for a certain app. If default settings has not changed, this is Control with left / right arrow
If in Snow Leopard and earlier, you have these settings in System Preferences only. In Lion, you also have some settings in Sys Prefs.

Why are my RAW format files no longer supported?

Using a Mac OS X 10.5.8 with versions of Adobe Photoshop CS5, Adobe Bridge CS5 and Camera Raw Plug-in.
Shot .CR2 raw format photos on my Canon EOS 450D (Same as Rebel XSi)
Have always been able to open them successfully in Camera Raw and Photoshop. Now says that the files and/or my camera model/make is not supported by the Camera Raw Plug-in nor by my Photoshop.
Tried converting to DNG first with Adobe DNG Converter 7.1 and even that says that the source folder does not contain any supported camera raw files.
Previous raw files taken with the same camera on the same computer with the same (or even earlier) versions of all these programs have always worked. I can still open those successfully too. However just these new ones I cannot. Nothing has changed about my camera in that time...
What can I do and why is it that these files are no longer supported?

ACR 6.7 and ACR 7.1 RC can open XSi CR2 files at least on Windows 7. I just checked.
However, on Windows, at least, the DNGC 7.1 RC has a quirk in that when you want to convert a folder of CR2s to DNGs, you have to click the Select button when the folder is highlighted in the file selection dialog and the folder listed in the location area of the file selection dialog. You cannot click INTO the folder and then click Select, which sounds like what you are doing. If you do click into the folder and click Select it’ll say there are no compatible files that exist. I think previous versions of the DNGC would recover properly if you clicked into the folder before clicking Select.
Since your files cannot be opened in ACR, either, then perhaps they are corrupted. You might post a download link to one of them in a message here so others can have a look. If you don’t have a large file hosting service, then set up a free account on www.dropbox.com or www.yousendit.com or similar, upload your file, there, then post the public download link, here, in a reply.

Are the ProRes codec and .MOV file no longer supported?

I posted the following over at Creative Cow with no luck... hopefully I can get answers here ...
I am on a MAC - I joined the Adobe bandwagon during the great FCP migration of 2011 ... So far it's been great but...
Both Premiere CC AND After Effects CC are not recognizing Pro Res ...heck it doesn't seem like they are recognizing QUICKTIME in general (both progams are rejecting a .MOV I have with the animation codec) ...
When I try and open up a CS6 sequence in CC I get a message saying "The preset used by one or more of the sequences in this project requires third party components that could not be located." When you click ok just to get the project open, the media is offline.
When I try and IMPORT a .MOV into Premiere CC I get "The importer reported a generic error."
When I try and IMPORT a .MOV into AE cc I get "Cannot be imported- this 'MooV' file is damaged or unsupported.
When I try a test render out of AE cc the default Format is Quicktime, but when you go to the Video Output Format Options the Video Codec has the number "0" instead of a list of codecs .... and when you click on the "0" it changes to "-1". Seriously there are NO codecs listed in the Options - No ProRes, No Animation, just the number zero.
Media Encoder obviously is essentially the same story.
This seems to be a Quicktime thing ... not JUST a ProRes thing.
CS6 has no problems working with my Mac and QT/ProRes ... so I know it's not my machine...
I really don't feel like calling India today to process a refund, but if I can't get this working on my Mac I dont need to pay for Adobe CC.

Did you know that there has been a major overhaul to prores and where\how it's installed? I've had the same issue, but I ran the following test:
I've installed the compressor, I used the cs6 prores and... ...FAILURE. I was on CS6, and it didn't work... ...Why? Tell ya in a moment... Next step:
I undid the last action by dumping the prores presets. Then I installed the cs7\cc version. Bingo.
I went and researched the problem.
Apple now includes most of the prores specification in the quicktime bundle (except their new 444). It's all in the same bundle. I looked into some workarounds people have used to get it working without pro-apps... ...they all focus on using the older prores which is installed as separate packages... ...and separate bundles. What does this mean?
If you are above 10.7 for your mac os, and you have compressor (latest), you have the prores built into the quicktime bundle. If you are 10.7 or below, and you have the version of compressor for that period (same codec, different file arrangement), you have the prores codecs all in separate bundles. They are inactive but still included in the quicktime bundle for 10.8 and above, so you couldn't use them without the right presets, along with compressor which changes the files to an actual bundle instead of a simple file inside the quicktime packaging.
If you are on later mac os and you have CS5 or above, use the CC version of the presets. If you have the older prores or an older compressor and wish to try and hack it in, you can do it, and then use the CS6 version of the presets supplied by adobe. They point to different bundles in the system. I use both, on different machines. IF you have cs5, you may want to use the "hack" way, and install the prores from older compressor, even if you have the newer one... ...They work faster in cs5 if you use the CS6 presets. Why? I do not know for certain, but I believe it has to do with the 32bit crosstalk. Cs6 starts with 64 and has to "dumb down" to 32 for a connection to quicktime directly, and then, if it finds 64bit architecture, smart-*** up to 64 again. In Cs5 you're stuck in 32 most of the way on the back end. Only a guess.
And when importing into premiere... ...HMM... >>>I had the same problems you had... It wanted to only import audio. If you have the time... Try:
Copy the presets from adobe that are for AME into the proper sequence preset folder of your Premiere app (the previews folder). You should also try and find a way to set up your main sequence edit. Try to remember that an AE import must be:
Fully Rendered into a file, and not linked from AE but from the file itself OR
The composition must be set to the same uncompressed codec (which means you need the preset in the AE app folder as well, finding this will be difficult, best of luck).
Remember to match your preset to your codec. IF you have separate prores bundles, use cs6 versions of the preset, and if you have the latest bundle, use the cC\cs7\2014 versions. This will let AE provide an uncompressed composition, but very slow in previewing, and if you render out, remember to render to a whole file (you can try to render-farm, but you still have to re-render in AME or Compressor afterward, as farm will only render out the frames and an audio file, not the proper file wrapper, even if you specify that wrapper; You have to build the file wrapper from the images and audio after you've rendered any effects).

Iphoto will not open as it is saying it is no longer supported by the current environment

I am trying to open Iphoto and there is an error mesage saying "you can't open the application iphoto because the Classic environment is no longer suppoerted"

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
