Cannot play .amr file from Internet

I accessed the following link to play the .amr audio file using QuickTime
http://72.167.30.164/bv/nod/nodChap-1220091024.amr
When I select 'Open With' in the Windows dialog and select QuickTime, the file gets downloaded as .amr.3gp instead of just .amr. And then QuickTime gives an error that it can't play the file. However if I save it first, it gets saved as .amr and can be played in QT.
I'm providing this .amr file on a public blog and it should be possible to play it using "Open with" option.
How to resolve this issue?
Thank you very much.

The file will play with QT for windows and also supported by Real Player. It seems you need to select the .amr in QT preferences or make the change in the Folder Options control panel under File Types. If neither works then a firewall is kicking it out
Oh, just re-read your post. your using Vista OS. Which did away with File Types in the Folder Options control panel. Great OS...Microsoft. Well the website does play but to navigate Vista is a chore I'm not getting into

I cannot play .mov files (from iPhone) in Premiere Elements 10.

I cannot play .mov files (from iPhone) in Premiere Elements 10. Is there a solution?
It used to work fine. I wonder if the problem has something to do with the recent iPhone update. Is there any Premiere update I can download?

Well, if it used to work... and then you updated your iphone and now it does not work... that seems to ME like the iphone update changed something in the files
But, exactly what is inside your mov files?

Cannot play avi files from my samsung digimax i5

Hello y'all. I can't seem to play any of my avi files from this camera in quicktime. I have done some research and it seems I can view them on a vlc player which is fine. But how will I create movies in imovie and idvd when quicktime can't read them. It seems that there was a codec to download which I have but there is still no sound, just a picture. Can anyone help?

You may be able to get the audio to play by using this freeware but no guarantees:

If the Doctor can't fix it you may want to open one of these videos in QT and then use the MovieInfo window to reveal the compression methods used for audio and video. Post those and perhaps someone will have more info on how to get the audio decompressor.

Cannot download PDF files from Internet with Safari.

What must I do (after resetting Safari) to be able to coherently download PDF files from the Internet

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (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 (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat 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 again.

Cannot play .avi files from USB Flash Memory UHYB-064GH

Hi,
I have recently bought a 64gb Toshiba Flash Memory Drive (Stick). It's model UHYB-064GH.
Straight out of the box I plugged the USB drive into my Windows PC.
I'm running Windows Vista.
I tried to transfer a number of .avi video files to the device, taking up about 10gb of space.
I tried running the files (using VLC player) straight from the flash drive. Most of the files wouldn't play.
Only one did but it only played the first 8 seconds of a near 2 hour film.
The counter in the corner only showed the film to be 8 seconds long?!
However the properties section of the file confirmed it was a 1.6gb, 2 hour film...?
I transferred the same video files to a different (old) drive I have and found that it worked fine.
The drive is a FAT32 one.
I don't really know much about these things so would be grateful for any advice
Tom

Try to format the USB flash memory in NTFS format.
The FAT file format supports files up to 4GB but the NTFS format supports bigger sizes.

I cannot play mp3 file on itunes after i recover it from an external hdd

hey guy'z i need a little help here
i have a large mp3 file from an old 2TB which had a problem and then recovered and transfered to a new ext hdd.
now after the recovery was done and i'm trying to play my music on the itunes it wont play
any solution guys?
and another thing is the wma file why i cant i play it also on my itunes?

iTunes cannot play WMA files. Use a conversion program such as Switch or EasyWMA to convert the WMA to MP3 or AAC.
For your problem MP3, make sure it is a valid file by playing it in another player such as QuickTime. If it plays there but not in iTunes, then it needs to be cleaned up with a program such as MP3 Validator.

Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer

I can not find solution to the issue "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer" while attempting to play the file with *.wmv extension. Some computer fail in spite of said missing codec
being present according the windrows media player in Windows 7 box

If Rashid's link does not resolve it... consider the below:
A) As of this writing, the codec for GoToMeeting webinar recordings ("G2M4" codec) was only mentioned in *one* web page, of about 10 Microsoft web pages I read, to resolve this problem (and that codec is not included, yet, in their diagnostic tool),
so if you're trying to play a GoToMeeting webinar, simply get the codec for it from their site: http://www.GoToMeeting.com/codec
B) If Windows Media Player (WMP) will not even open the file, you won't be able to get the 4-character codec's name (like "G2M4") from WMP. But VLC's media player will tell you that code, even when it fails to run the video.... and then you can
search the internet for it.
C) The problem sometimes is not actually a missing codec. Other things that have helped others, some from:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-pictures/the-windows-media-player-12-could-not-play-the-wma/bb823460-44df-4e8d-ba2c-42ec0e111e5a?page=3
(1) running the System File Checker (SFC.exe),
(2) opening WMP first (running both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions) then opening the file from inside them,
(3) confirming that WMP was the file association for WMV files,
(4) Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound, selecting my audio device, and looking for a "5.1" setting (I didn't have one), to change to "stereo",
(5) checking Tools\Options\Devices\Speakers\Properties\Speaker Properties\AdvancedPlayback\ Speakers /HP\Properties\Advanced\Default Format, to select "CD or DVD Quality" (if that setting appears for your device),
Good luck,

Cannot play MP3 files in Dreamweaver CS4

Hi
Apogogies if this has been asked before.
I have an embedded MP3 file on one of my DWCS4 pages but when I try to play it from the Properties Inspector I get the message "Unable to find the plugin that handles this media type".
The sound file plays OK in Firefox and IE but I would like to be able to test it in DW. I have the currrent version of Apple QuickTime Pro installed.
I am using both Windows XP and Vista with the same problem.
Is there a plug I can download for DW only in order to play these files without resorting to converting the MP3 to another format.
Any help would be much appreicated.
Thanks
George

Yes but I did exactly what I accused you of doing so it was really bad!
Software troubles can drive you a bit crazy. Sorry again.

Cannot play m4a files

I installed gnome music (had installed it already but reinstalled my system) and now it cannot play m4a files. I dont know why before i reinstalled arch it had played them?
Does anyone know a package i have to install, i cannot remeber if i did so.

I'm sure you've found a solution by now, and I'm not sure if this will help?! Have you tried (with TAG editor) to change the the format from "UNKNOWN" to "Audio MPEG-4 AAC LC" ?

I cannot delete a file from the document folder. I can move it to the trash and then empty the trash, but when I go back to the documents folder it is still there.

I wonder what your computing environment is. Is your account being administrated by another account? Are you working in an account subject to "Parental Controls"?

Cannot Delete CPTL file from Desktop using Vista

Hi All,
I cannot Delete CPTL file from Desktop using Vista. Explorer
crashes. It is a Captivate 2 file.
I have tried (with no luck):
- logging in as a different user and deleting the file.
- running explorer as an Administrator
- uninstalling Captivate.
Anyone got any ideas?
Cheers,
Raef

Hi Raef,
That is a strange issue. Here are a couple more ideas you
could try:
- Have you tried renaming the file (including suffix)?
- Have you rebooted?
- Do you get any error messages when trying to delete, such
as "Acess Denied"?
- Is your machine networked? Is it possible someone else has
the file open?
- Can the file be moved to another location or put in a
folder (and then deleted)?
- Have you tried using the Command Prompt / DOS mode to
delete the file?
It sounds like it could be a Vista issue so I would look at
the Microsoft Vista forums too. Sorry I do not have an exact
answer.
IHTH,
Aaron

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.
