BMW Short Films not playing on updated QT

I was wondering if anyone knows of a plug-in/codec that will allow the BMW short films to be played on the current version of QT. They used to play before I upgraded to QT 7.
14" 1.42GHZ iBook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

In the QuickTime Player, look at the Quicktime Preferences, on the Advanced tab.
Make sure that the checkbox for "[ X ] Enable Flash" is checked. This allows QuickTime to play Flash tracks in QuickTime movies, which allows the controllers to play in the BMW films. For some strange reason, in QT-7, this is disabled by default. Quit QuickTime Player and relaunch the movie.
While you're at it, go to the MIME settings described elsewhere in this thread and disable QuickTime playback of Flash media. This prohibits QuickTime from trying to play Flash video, and allows Flash animations to play in the Flash player. The checkbox affects only QuickTime's ability to handle flash tracks in QuickTime movies, and that should be enabled. The MIME setting controls whether QuickTime should play Flash outside of a QuickTime movie, and that should be disabled because QuickTime does not support modern Flash.

ITunes v 1.1.1.5 makes m4b files = 0:00 and will not play. iPod update same

updated iTunes makes m4b (homemade audiobooks) show 0:00 time -- even though file size shows old size -- and files will not play. Immediate past version of iTunes showed at 0:00 but would play. updated iPod will not play pre update present m4b audiobooks.
Any ideas on how to correct? More discussion here:

Hate to post in both places, but relevance is in both forums.
How does one revert to prior versions of iTunes, QuickTime, and iPod -- assuming the latter two also need to revert. Do they?
Have found the following:
uninstall: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
Old versions:

any clues, hints, warnings, etc., before I go thru downgrades?

Older BMW Quicktime Videos not Playing

I have some older 2004 BMW Videos such as Ticker, Ambush, Star etc which I have not played in awhile. These Videos now do not play on my new Intel iMac running the latest version of Quicktime.
Any suggestions ?

Took all the codecs out of my iMac(iMac/Library/Quicktime) with no success.
If you mean you transfered the codecs from old computer to new one, were all the codecs "Universal Binary?" If you mean you removed all codecs from new computer to test for incompatibilities, then I remind you that you need to look at the movies themselves (Finder "Info", QT "Show Movie Info", QT "Show Movie Properties", and/or similar third-party options that allow you to determine a movie's audio/video format characteristics) to find out which compression formats were used and then make sure you have the appropriate universal binary versions installed. Otherwise, you may have to run under "Rosetta" for them to work properly.
1. Installed Flip4Mac Components
Some components may conflict with Flip4Mac.
2. UpGraded to Quicktime Pro
This only allows access to specific menu options/edit features and should have no effect on playback.

11.0.5.5 64-bit on Win 8: music does not play after update

Recently prompted to update itunes software to 11.0.5.5 64-bit (Win 8). Did so and now music does not play. Music library is correct but when I select a song and then push the "play" triangle itunes says it is playing but tracker does not move off of "0:00". Any ideas?

The issue is probably not the machine you purchased the music on. The issue is very likely the Apple ID you used to purchase the music.
It sounds like the music being skipped on your iPhone 5 was purchased with some Apple ID that is not currently authorized in the iTunes (on your computer) that you sync to. So you should go to that computer, open iTunes, do Store > Authorize This Computer from iTunes' menu, enter that Apple ID and password, then sync your iPhone 5 to that iTunes.

Film not playing smoothly on quicktime!

Hello,
I am hoping someone can help me as i am out of ideas of how to solve my problem!
I have exported a film it is 2 mins long with the first min being a slide show of photos with tilts and pans. When i first exported it the first minute when played on quicktime were jumping. Not at the same point but at random times. I downsized the photos on photoshop and this helped it but they still are not perfect. The rest of the film was playing fine. I then decided it might help if i export the photos as a separate film and then reimport it. Again this helped but they are still not playing perfectly on quicktime for some reason. Any ideas for what i could do? I have put the res down too much already so i cant down size them anymore.
Now when i play the video on quicktime the last half of the film is jumping in the same way as the photos were. I have tried it on VLC player and it works fine but it has to be played on quicktime for a client so i really need this to work on quicktime. I have tried exporting it as many different formats and reducing the bit rate but still the same thing is happening.
I really need some sort of clue to what is going on and how to solve this problem as i am out of knowledge and ideas!
the info on the latest export of the film:
QuickTime movie
Size: 153 MB on disk (152,965,033 bytes)
1920 × 1080
H.264, AAC, Timecode
Audio channels: 2
total bit rate: 8,492
Thank you!!!

I am not sure I understand everything you asked me but let me try my best to answer your questions.
Basically I was attempting to point out that different encoding strategies and software applications could affect your workflow in different ways. For instance, your used the term "slideshow" which could either be the sequential display of a single JPEG fr
I am using premiere pro to create the slideshow. I import the jpeg then i add motion via the effects tab by key framing. These jpegs go into the same sequence settings as i listed above and are exported as a .MOV in the H264 Codec bit rate is 8,223 and 25 FPS .
Yeah when I exported the slide show as a film and then reimported it into the sequence it was a .MOV with the above properties.
I used quick time 10 to play the film. I also have version 7 but i want it to play on the 10 as this is the version my client has.
That is a good idea but i still have the same problem with both films played separately. It is difficult to determine what is causing it as it is unpredictable where it jumps and for how long for.
ame for a specific period on a single track, the interspersed display of such JPEG photos on two different tracks on an alternating basis with or without a 'tweening track to apply transitions between the display of alternating track photos, or the display of such photos in a single track which has been encoded as "video" content containing multiple frames per unit of time.
My sequence settings are as follows:
Editing mode: DSLR, 25FPS, 1080X 1920, Codec: MPEG I FRAME.
The software I am editing on is Premiere Pro CS6.
The photos are JPEGS and the films are .MOV, 1080 x1920 at 25 FPS.
Not a Premier user, so your settings (DSLR and MPEG I FRAME) are somewhat confusing to me.
The JPEGS started out as roughly 3,000 pixels large and 300 dpi. This made the video jump a lot. So i took them into photoshop and reduced the pixel dimensions to the closest possible i could to the 1920x 1080 format my film is to be in. I cant remember what each indiviual JPEG was as they were all different but roughly speaking I set them to around 1500 - 2000 pixels and 72 dpi. This certainly helped the jumping but didn't stop it all together.
The slide show has no text. It is old black and white photographs from the 1920's . I should also say that when i reduced the distance that the pans and tilts has to travel this helped the jumping. it seems to be where there is movment over the still images the film jumps in quicktime.
I am using premiere pro to create the slideshow. I import the jpeg then i add motion via the effects tab by key framing. These jpegs go into the same sequence settings as i listed above and are exported as a .MOV in the H264 Codec bit rate is 8,223 and 25 FPS .

I used quick time 10 to play the film. I also have version 7 but i want it to play on the 10 as this is the version my client has.
Thanks for the clarifications.
If you are changing both dimensions and the resolution reference in Photoshop, then it sounds like you are doing everything correctly here. However, am not sure about your use of the term "key framing." Are you referring to the use of "key" frames to initiate/modify motion effects or the use of "key frames" to insert additional I-frames to improve the rendering of motion effects? The use of an excessive number of I-frames can change the allocation of data between intra- and inter-frames if the target data rate is left unchanged—sort of a "rob Peter to pay Paul" situation. E.g., if too much data is "borrowed" from the "difference" frames, then the motion transitions may cause playback to become jerky in the same way that "dropped frames" during playback would. In this case, you may wish to try an increase in the target data rate for the file to see if it provides a smoother rendering during photo "slideshow" playback. (Am assuming here that your MPEG-4 AVC exports are a minimum Main Profile @ Level 3.1 allowing data rates up to 14 Mbps in which case I would likely try a target setting of about 10 Mbps for testing.)
That is a good idea but i still have the same problem with both films played separately. It is difficult to determine what is causing it as it is unpredictable where it jumps and for how long for.
Suggestion was to test whether the problem was caused by sourced content encoding or the process of "merging" the different types of content. Recommend you reprocess the photos in Photoshop at 72 dpi reference (if not already doing so) to appropriate resolutions and then reprocess the results in Premier to see what happens.
You mentioned VFR- is there a setting i should be aware of for this- can you explain this to me in a bit more depth what is that? I thought the FR is set to 25 and it sticks to 25 unless i select another frame rate?
you mentioned at the end of your reply that it could be data rates or frame rate issues- what would you suggest to solve this problem?
Not familiar with settings available in Premier. Was referring to the use of VFR strategy to eliminate duplicate frames. I.e., if you were exporting photos as stationary "slideshows" rather than using motion effects like Ken Burns, then the elimination of duplicate frames might reduce the data rate requirements associated with "slideshow" exports in "video" compression formats. QT is programmed to skip frames if it is unable to keep up with data throughput—which is most frequently the primary source of jerky playback.

IPhone 5 connected to 2005 BMW audio system not playing music audio.

I just bought an iPhone5 and I am having a problem with getting it to work with my factory installed BMW iPod/iPhone integration kit. Music and other apps like Sirius with play button no longer play. Play starts but switches to pause right away. Is this a bug? Other apps like TomTom and Maps app work fine with audio playing through car audio system.

Not that I know of..
Anyways, strangely as I got in the car today, planning on just playing Pandora, but before I even hit play on the app...Music started playing!!! Not from an app, but from the actual Music player!!
As of now, the adapter is functioning as intended... Hopefully it stays that way!

Downloaded films not playing

i have skygo on my iPad and I downloaded a lot of films for the kids to watch when we go to the caravan. When we arrived (in the middle of nowhere, with no internet connection) it wouldn't play any of the downloaded content because there was no connection, is this not the idea of downloading content? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but I always get the message unless I'm home with internet connection. Can you please help?

There is a Sky Store Forum here that you might want to post on because on there unlike on here you might get a reply from a Sky Store advisor:

Bought film, not playing, have followed advice to no avail

Followed winston churchill's advice but to no avail. Still says "downloading" on iTunes after I deleted the film.

Try re-downloading it (assuming you use the US iTunes store), preferably on another device (now, right on the iPad).

HT1657 I have rented a movie 8hours ago, and it will NOT play. The system also charged me twice, for the same movie! How can you help me please?

I have rented a movie 8hours ago, and it will NOT play. The system also charged me twice, for the same movie! How can you help me please?

For the film not playing, you can use the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link.
Not sure whether you can request a refund for the double charge via the same link, if not then you can contact iTunes support here : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

Videos Do Not Play on PC After iOS6 Update

I am having a very big problem. I have an iPhone 4S that is less than one year old. Prior to updating my iOS firmware, I was able to record and transfer video to my PC and view it with a variety of programs without any modifications. Since updating the firmware, all videos that have been taken are not viewable on my PC. I can hear the audio associated with the video, but the video is blank. I can transfer the file off my phone using the Windows transfer tool. Then sync the video back to my phone and it play just fine on my phone. I tried emailing the video to myself to see if its losing something in the transfer, that did not work. I rebooted my computer just to say I did it, no luck. I reinstalled QuickTime to make sure I had the most recent version, still isn't working. I can still watch the videos that were made with iOS 5.1.1 and they play just fine, but nothing made with iOS 6 is viewable.
I have been successful with the following procedure: Once the video is transfered from the phone to my PC, I change the extension from .MOV to .MPG and this makes the video viewable with Windows Media Player; however, if the video is shot in a portrait orientation, it displays sideways in WMP as a landscape orientation and the audio track is no longer there. I have been able to then run the video through Microsoft's MovieMaker program to right the video 90 degrees but the image comes out a little squatty like it's out of scale. In either case, it serves the purpose and I can export it to another .MPG format that I can then run through Sony Vegas and edit as I see fit. While it works, this is a huge hassle and I shouldn't have to do it.
Does anyone know of anything that is working? Are there new codecs somewhere that windows users need to get a hold of? Is this an Apple bug? Anyone else have any other solutions? Ideas? Similar experiences?

DustinMedlam, I have the same exact problem. I started using my Iphone 4S for shooting video about 2 months ago and tranferred them to my Windows machine with Windows 7. I use the clips in Sony Vegas pro 11 and make short movies. I upgraded to ios 6 last week and every video that I shoot with my iphone 4S now is not usable in Quictime or Sony Vegas???? My old videos from before ios 6 play just fine and I can use them in Sony Vegas with no problems. The only way to play the files is with Windows media player. this does me no good as I just began making short films and now I can not use any of the video I have shot since ios 6. I also have a Samsung Galaxy S2 and I shoot video with it and use the clips in Sony Vegas with no issues!?? I can not believe this is not BLOWING up on the internet like the WIFI issue is..... What do we do? All my video gear is for my Iphone not my galaxy S2. This is very annoying. I also notice that no one from Apple response to these support forums. So why are they available?? What a JOKE!

Since Nov update about a third of my songs have a circle with an exclamation mark inside the circle. These songs will not play on my computer. Message says "The song .... could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" I have reloaded these back onto itunes with my own CD collection. They work for a short while, then the same thing happens. I don't know what is causing this or how to fix it.

I finally resolved my problem after spending way too much time on it. I simply handed my 160GB iPod to my husband to put his fav Stones & Beatles songs on and I went back to my 80GB Microsoft Zune which has never disappointed me.
After spending so much time trying to figure this out I did finally take it back to Apple Store who performed a diagnostic and found there was a problem with the device. They replaced it with a refurbished one which has similar issues. All I wanted to do was listen to my music. Was that too much to ask? So I am happy to be free of this problematic device. No more Apple for me!!

G570- Blueray not playing film

Hi,
I have recently bought a G570 with a Blueray player. I first tried to play a Blueray film at the weekend and had real problems. My G570 came with Cyberlink Power DVD 10 pre-instaled but this would not run the film. It said that an update was needed which I then did. The film would still not play and the Cyberlink programme continued to state "Cyberlink DVD does not support the playback of this media format."
I contacted the Lenovo service desk and was advised to try another programme to run the film and was reccomended to download VLC; which I did and that also did not play the film. I then tried another programme 'DAPlayer' which, although it did not auto play the film, I was able to explore the disk and run the film from a file on the disk.
So I now know that the Blueray disk does actually work. However, why have Lenovo sold me some hardware and not given me the software to be able to actually use that hardware?
I would wlcome any ideas. By the way, the film I have is called 'RocknRolla' by Warner Bros

Hi Theogrin,
There isn't a readme with that downloadable app, and I don't have a Lenovo Blu-ray player, so I'm speculating a little here.
The multimedia downloads on the Lenovo site are usually updates that won't install (correctly) unless the originally-delivered app is already installed. I would expect the update to fail if you removed the original first. It may be that the error message is misleading, and the problem is that the update can't find the original.
Can you restore the original and try again? (again, I don't have a similar machine) Maybe in D:\application, or D:\drivers, or similar?

After updating to windows 8.1 iTunes will not play video

I recently updated to Windows 8.1 but since i have my iTunes will not play video i previously downloaded from the iTunes store. The video will play in QuickTime without issue though, please help

sorry it's not my apple id. it's my icloud email/account. after i updated to ios 8.1.2 my icloud acct on my phone is wrong. it's using my old college email address instead of my current icloud account email. my old college email address *used* to be my apple id, but i changed my apple id to my gmail account a few months back. anyway i can't "sign out" or delete the icloud account bc it thinks my college email address is my icloud account and it keeps asking for the password. so i'll type in the current password for my icloud account and it says it's wrong and i need to retry or change the password, which i've already done twice and nothing changes. probably bc its asking for the password associated with the college email address it thinks is my icloud acct.
i can access icloud on my desktop without a problem... make any sense? do i have to restore my phone now or is there a solution? i've wasted the last 2 days trying to figure this out. i can't send or receive emails on my iphone bc of this. which really ***** for work.

New Ipod Touch will not play in BMW

I have a new Ipod touch that I bought from Apple. My 2010 BMW 128c will not recognized this Ipod touch or my wifes Ipod touch. It will recognize the one I bought my son at Best Buy. It also would not work with my previous BMW X5. I am using the adapter cable that came with the BMW. I work for BMW and they don't have any ideas. Is there a setting on Ipod touch that I need to turn on.

The problem may very well be the OS version you're using (3.0 or later). There were many reports of problems when Apple introduced 3.0 and it has been a problem ever since. In my case, when I changed from 2.2.1 to 3.0 my '09 Honda Fit lost the ability to select Artists, Playlists, etc. (but at least it plays). I was able to step back to 2.2.1 for awhile and it functioned correctly, but I decided to go back to 3.x once I realized that Apple wasn't going to fix this, and I wanted some of the 3.x features. I recall seeing that BMW, Mercedes, and a few other accessories were affected.
If your son's Touch works OK in your BMW, what OS version does he have? Chances are that it is version 1 or 2. You can blame Apple, but it may also be accessory manufacturers not following Apple's standards -- we'll never know, but one thing for sure is that this issue does not have Apple's attention since the problem remains after multiple OS releases since 3.0.
