Can't view quicktime movies in email anymore?

Before the 2.0 updates, I could easily view quicktime movies sent to me via email. Ever since the 2.0 update, it says it's not able to play the movie. Why is this? And what do I need to do to fix it?
Thank you.

Thank you Quicktime Kirk, That worked. I just have one other question. I dragged the plugin to my desktop as you directed, but should I now toss it? or, uh, what?
Thank you again,
Cake boy

  • Can't view Quicktime Movies on the web

    this is what im trying to view
    http://www.solent.ac.uk/360/hamwic_bedroom.html
    it worked a while back but not now, now i get the light blue logo with the question mark
    cant change file types in preferences they are not greyed out they dont even show as a list, it says programatically set
    i found qtp whatever it was in regedit changed everything to full control
    moved quicktime .xml file onto desktop from apple computer folder
    uninstalled and installed quicktime a few times
    tried with ie8 google chrome and cometbird
    no luck
    quicktime is terrible, i dont know why so many things on the web need it to play, they may as well ask notepad to open the files.
    cheers

    I'm having the exact same problem... Don't know when but IE and Firefox are refusing to play quicktime files. I can run the quicktime player and play MP3 and MOV files (which is what I normally do) but nothing is playing from the browser.
    I've tried pretty much everything I can think of... in the end, QuickTime is not showing up under Set Default Programs or Set Program Associations (via QuickTime Preferences->Browser->MIME Settings or File Types).
    I can install QT-Lite, and everything works for the browser... except now I don't have a standalone player that plays MP3 and MOV files because I cannot have QT-Lite installed alongside QuickTime.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Jason

  • Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • How do you view quicktime movies from MAC to TV?

    I'd like to view quicktime movies from my MacBook Pro to HDTV. What do I need to do?

    Not every retailer carries mini-DP to HDMI adaptors, so you might want to call ahead. If you find one, make sure that it carries audio - some won't. You can certainly find them online. Apple normally stocks a Moshi version which supports audio, but they're back-ordered at the moment. If you have trouble finding them locally, try newegg.com.
    Edit: meant to add, a newer option is to get an AppleTV v3 connected to your TV, connect it to your wireless network, and mirror your Macbook Pro to the AppleTV using Airplay Mirroring. May even not be much more expensive than the adaptor+cable option. Details here:

  • Viewing quicktime movies in Safari

    What are the specifications for viewing quicktime movies in safari? I've tried several different sites, most without luck. One very useful site (http://mac.sillydog.org/qt/compare.php) has several different QT formats posted. I was surprised to find out that I could not view the H.264 format, but that I could view the MPEG-4 (basic) and MPEG-4 (Improved) formats (these are the last 2 examples on the page). Also, does anyone know if it is possible to view any streaming quicktime video from within Safari? TIA
    -peter-

    Update: No it is not possible to stream quicktime video to ipod touch or iPhone at this time. Only Audio streams are supported.
    I don't know the exact specifications off hand, although I know for definate that Apple's trailer site now redirects you to a iPhone-friendly version when browsed from either iPod touch or iPhone.
    Maybe you could look into what spec the videos are encoded there? - Hopefully you can, I'd also be able to upload video in ipod touch compatible format(s).

  • Viewing quicktime movies from iphoto 08

    I just upgrade to Snow Leopard, I use to be able to view quicktime movies from Iphotos in Leopard, now if i click on the movie nothing happens, From Quicktime doesnt seem to want to open my library where the movies are located. These are small video max 30 secs from my digital camera?

    If I upgrade to iphoto 09 will this problem go away?
    No. Not if you don't install Quicktime 7 Player from the Snow Leopard install disk. You can do a custom install and select the Quicktime 7 Player as the only item to install. That should fix the issue.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    Can't open quicktime movie that I exported from FCP 5. Help!

    What arrow?
    Have you tried opening the file in FCP?
    If there is no error message and it will not play in QT7, it is quite possible the file is corrupted. You will need to go back to the original project and re-export the file.

    Can I view rented movies in flight mode?

    As long as they're from the iTunes Store and have completed downloading to your iPad, yes. Once completely downloaded, a network connection should no longer be needed.

  • I have purchased MOVIES from Apple iTunes and want to know how I can burn them to my DVD so I can watch/view the movies on my TV's located in my house?

    I have purchased MOVIES from Apple iTunes and want to know how I can burn them to my DVD so I can watch/view the movies on my TV's located in my house?  Pls post what you know or works for you - I see the movies on iTunes but am unable to locate them in any folder on my computer???  Thank you!
    Pete

    So what is meant here is spend more money - wrong answer.
    For that reason most people prefer to buy movies on DVD. They are easily shared, foolproof, and super easy to use. I love Apple TV and iTunes for music and TV shows, but I would never purchase a movie that was not on an optical disc.
    When I head out-of-town I can grab a couple of DVDs to watch on my new MacBook Pro during the flight. Easy and uncomplicated.
    DVDs offer another advantage. You can watch your movie without depending upon a complicated and delicate infrastructure. Also, movies are frequently censored for political correctness (Star Wars is a recent example).  Despite public pressure for a release, the Disney movie “Song of the South” remains banned.  Even cartoons like Johnny Quest are now censored.  Only people who purchased physical copies years ago have them as they were originally produced.
    When you possess a physical copy of the movie the PC patrol can't mess with it.

  • HT1657 Can I view my movies abroad while on holiday

    Can I view rented movies abroad, while on holiday?

    The .ibooks format created by iBooks Author cannot be opened on a Windows PC.  If you want to read a book that way, you have to create it in .epub format.  The Apple app for that is Pages.
    You can export your book from iBA to .pdf format, and this can be read on a PC, but I think you will lose the interactive.

  • Viewing Quicktime Movie?

    Hello,
    I'm working as a transcriber on a show that just switched its format to HD. They've given me the files on an external hd with firewire, and I'm supposed to type out the dialogue using InqScribe, which is basically Quicktime with a little notepad that lets you put in time stamps, as I understand it. (You guys probably know all of this stuff, but I just wanted to be safe.)
    The files play the audio, but not the video. I read that I need some sort of proprietary codec from Final Cut Pro in order to view the files in Quicktime, so my supervisor provided me with a copy, but it requires 26.7GB to install, and I don't have nearly enough space available and can't easily make it. Is there any way I can extract just the codec I need without fully installing FCP or any other way I can get it?
    Here's the file info in case that helps:
    Kind: QuickTime Movie
    Codecs: DVCPRO HD 1080i60, Integer (Little Endian), Timecode
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Google is failing me so far!

    No it doesn't. FCS 2 requires 4gb for all the apps, less for FCP only. FCS2 has another 55gb of content (templates etc) for the various apps, but you don't need them.
    Seeing as your quoted 27gb doesn't tally with this I'm assuming you're using an older version, but the apps themselves still shouldn't take up any more than 4gb, probably less to be honest.

  • How to view Quicktime movie on iPad

    Hi,
    I have the most recent iPad Air. Yesterday I took a video with my iPhone 4S. I emailed it to myself and some others, straight from the photos app. They were able to open it up on their computers. My iPad won't play it. When I click on the attachment, it just displays a grey screen saying "Video.MOV QuickTime Movie."
    I searched and others with this problem seemed to have an issue playing other formats like WMV. This is straight from an iPhone. So I can't imagine the iPad should need a third party app for this. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks!

    Try playing with free OPlayerHD Lite app.
