Cannot open video's from e-mails

I can't open a lot of video e-mails or other video things. Mac pro book has Quick time installed on it too.
Get "Error message can not open"
New to MAC not to using a computer though. My son talked me into buying this. Great graphics.
I'm at a loss of what's going on here.
Is this a compatibility issue?

  • Cannot open video mail

    This is regarding an old post that hasn't been answered:
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9883233#9883233
    Basically I cannot upload videos sent from a Sprint PCS mobile to my email account because Windows technology is required. I am aware of the virtual box and bootcamp but I would much prefer a Mac only solution...Perhaps someone has written a script or knows a workaround?
    Any help appreciated even if that means redirecting me to another section of this forum, but in this case, which one exactly?

    I didn't misread your post. You stated that "... it's a fact I have verified myself and it is known problem to both Sprint PCS and Apple" and "The bottom like is I cannot open Video mail send by a sprint PCS mobile because it requires Windows technology." You also stated "I would much prefer a Mac only solution...Perhaps someone has written a script or knows a workaround?" To me this clearly states that (a) it can't be done any other way and (b) you would like to do it another way.
    The bottom like is I cannot open Video mail send by a sprint PCS mobile because it requires Windows technology.
    Since you refuse to provide details about the required "Windows technology", I can only guess that perhaps it's an issue regarding WMV files. If that's the case, you should investigate Flip4Mac WMV: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/28842 .
    If that's not the problem, you could increase the chances that someone could help you by supplying details of the required "Windows technology".

    I cannot open PDF's from a friends new PC, to my MacBook.  All other emailed PDF's are able to be opened.  The  attachments show up as "win mail.dat" files, that Adobe will nor open.  What can I do?

    This is due to windows encoding of the files for mailing. You need TNEF's Enough

  • Recently replace logic board.  Cannot open software purchased from Ap Store.

    The Power supply and Logic Board were replaced.  Now I cannot open software purchased from Ap Store.  Computer gave message this was purchased for another computer and go go Ap Stor.   I did, and nothing suggested what to do???  Suggestions?

    You only know a very small part of the story.   THE ORIGINAL iMAC WAS ONLY JUST OVER A MONTH OLD!  The original Appointment was screwed up by Apple Support(?).  I was told to drop it off in the morning and return for the 3:15PM appointment, which I did only to find there had been no appointment made, but the case number was in the system.  I was told 3-5 days only to be notified by e-mail on the third day the logic board (motherboard) was bad.   Another wait.  A week later it was ready and it ran from about noon until the next day about 11 AM when it had an update that required a restart where is promptly died during the restart.  The Mgr of the Apple Store was gracious and had the computer replaced with a new one rather than trying something else.   Perhaps, you think it is fun to sit in a noisy store for half an hour or more, but I sure don't.  Where is Apple's QC??? China!  
    I owned a computer business for 15 years and never once made a customer go through this much trouble.
    If my computers made it through a 72 hour burn-in and did not have a problem in the next couple of weeks it never did have a failure.   My 15 year record of building computers had less than a 1% failure rate. 
    By the way, for your information if a new logic board is installed (I seemed to see several being done each visit) and the App does not recognize it, just uninstall it and go to the App store and re-install it.

  • Trying to open youtube, QuickTime cannot open video.3gp, only a problem since upgrading to Mavericks

    trying to open youtube, QuickTime cannot open video.3gp, only a problem since upgrading to Mavericks, what do I need to do please ?

    You're right. It wasn't QuickTime itself. I solved all the problems myself.
    The main reason why QuickTime files weren't working was because the newest audio driver from Creative released July 2007 (using their autoupdate) is apparently for Windows Vista (it has the name Vista in the update title). Why that update showed up on my Windows XP Pro system, I have no idea. So, I went to Creative's site and got the driver before the latest release, and all works well.
    The Microsoft update (from June 2007, I noticed today, not July) is another issue. It's based around the file P17RunE.dll, which is something from Microsoft for the SoundBlaster. Not sure what it does, but I don't need it.
    Sorry for wasting all your time on a non QuickTime issue, but thanks for the help.

  • I have two excel files I cannot open or delete from my desktop.  One is titled 6ACAD200 and the other file is titled 8D73A700.  How can I get these off of my computer?

    I have two excel files I cannot open or delete from my desktop.  One is titled 6ACAD200 and the other file is titled 8D73A700.  How can I get these off of my computer?

    From the names I'd guess they are temporary files. If excel is running, quit and try again. If they still won't move or delete reboot. If they still won't move or delete...kill a chicken at midnight under an oak tree?

  • I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can using another Viewer

    I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can open it if using Google PDF viewer or another viewer. The Adobe reader gives the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when I try to open the file. The version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.7, however I have tried other versions and they all fail the same way.  I have tested on a number of different PC's in different networks and all fail using Adobe Reader but work using alternate viewer. Also the PC's will open a PDF from any other source.

    Newer Reader versions are more strict than older versions (and other PDF viewers).  If certain minimum requirements are not met, Reader will tell you that the PDF is damaged.  This can happen when a document was created with software that does not adhere to PDF standards, or when the file was damaged during a download or email transmission.
    You should contact the creator of these PDFs.

  • My mac won't open video clips from my iphone in iphoto since upgrading to snow leopard. Help.

    My Mac won't open video clips from my iphone in iphoto in iphoto since upgrading to Snow Leopard. Usually I just used to double click and the video clip would open, now nothing happens.  Help please.

  • I cannot open a file from LR5 into CC2014 unless it is a smart object. also will not save back to LR at all it gives me an error message "Line: 1 -   photoshop.notifyLightroomDocClosed ('lightroom-2.0', 'B53AFA39-A49B-4709-A9BD-0B6467C175C3', 'Macintosh H

    I cannot open a file from lightroom into CC2014 unless I open it as a smart object. CC opens, just will not display my image. i am given an error code when I save an image, and can only save to my desktop or other locations, not automatically back into my lightroom.
    I am using LR5 latest update, as well as CC2014
    Below is the error message:
    Line: 1 ->  photoshop.notifyLightroomDocClosed ('lightroom-2.0', 'B53AFA39-A49B-4709-A9BD-0B6467C175C3', 'Macintosh HD:Users:BPexposures:Desktop:_DSC5962 as Smart Object-1.psd');

    I was also having this issue, and I did some more searching and found this answer in the Adobe forums: Re: Photos from Lightroom 5 to Photoshop CC (2014) and back.... The issue appears to be caused by having not updated Lightroom to the latest version prior to having CC2014 installed (wow that's stupid). The trick seems to be to uninstall Photoshop CC2014 and to then reinstall it after having upgraded to Lightroom 5.5.

  • Cannot open pdf's from internet

    I installed Adobe reader but found it wasn't necessary. After uninstalling it I cannot open pdf's from the internet. When I try all that opens is a blank screen. How can I fix this?

    Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go.
    If you see the:  AdobePDFViewer plugin in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
    Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

  • Cannot open raw pic from A Panasonic G5.

    Hi, I cannot open raw pics from a Panasonic G5, it's Lightroom 5. Thanks!

    LR5 supports that camera's raw files OK.
    What is the exact error message?
    What operating system are you using?
    If the message says that the files cannot be read, it generally means that they cannot be written to the location(s) you've specified on the import screen. That can be because the disk is full or (more probably) that you don't have write permission for the folder or disk that you're trying to write to.
