Cannot play .wav files attached to email

I see on page 50 of the iPhone manual that .wav files are supported, however, they do not play. The error I get is "this movie format not supported". Does anyone have an answer that will help me?
Thanks!

did you find a resolution for this? I have the same issue on my business wav email accounts, but my home wav email account works fine.

Unable to open a .wav file attached to email.

When I click on an attached .wav file in an email it launches a player of some sort, appears to load the file, then displays the error "There was an error playing the file."
According to the tech. specs, .wav files are supposed to be compatible.
Anyone have any ideas?

I was able to play a WAV sent to me via email. I have Vonage and it sends voicemails to my email as WAV files; these files work fine for me.

Cannot Play Wav file

Hello,
I have a T850 and when I receive a voice mail message at work it emails my outlook and since I am synced I get the email and the message as a wav file on my T850. The Wav file opens but there is no sound, however the sounds works when viewing a tube video over the web on the same phone. Does anyone have any ideas on how to correct? Thanks!

I would expect a WAV to open in the Windows Media Player. Is that what happens? Does the Media Player correctly play MP3s (e.g., on a microSD card)?

Cannot play .wav file in ICM script

Dear all,
I wrote a cript that plays a audio file ( .wav). That file is in correct audio format ( 64kbps, 8bit, 1 mono, 8kHz, CCITT u-law).
As you can see in script, all test calls from PSTN after jumping to Run Ext. Script are going to End node ( number 27). And from mobile test, i cannot hear any sound from script.
So, what is cause here? Thank in advance

I'll have to go on some assumptions since you don't have a lot of info here. Someone probably created a generic IPIVR script that performs similar functionality to the micro apps in CVP using peripheral variables as input. If an error is occuring, it is happening in the IPIVR and you will need to look at the MIVR logs to see what is causing the error. As for the path that the call takes once it exits the run external script node, that is set within the IPIVR script using the Set ICM Result step. Set it to true and it exits the success leg or set it to false and it exits the failure leg of the node. I'm guessing that you are probably not looking in the correct directory for the wav file and that is why it is not playing.

IPhone email WAV file attachment

Hello. My company uses a system for voicemail, that will send an email to me with an attached WAV file with the voicemail in it.
When I check the email and then select the WAV file attachment to play, it pops up with an error that says "this movie could not be played".
I have researched this and noticed that the WAV file that is sent as an attachment is ecoded with "ACM Waveform". The only WAV file encoding that I found works on the iPhone is "PCM Windows".
Is there any way to be able to listen to the ACM WAV file? Anyone know of a fix?
WAV files encoded with ACM, ADPCM and PCM all play fine in iTunes. WAV files encoded with DVI do not however. Yet only the PCM encoded file will play on the iPhone.
Any suggestions?

Sure you can. I can send myself emails with WAV files and they open fine using the media player on the iPhone, provided they are encoded with Windows PCM. Anything else does not work.
That is my issue. The WAV files that my system sends me are encoded with ACM. I need them to be PCM.

Thanks for all (Ocean20 & Courcoul) who replied.
Reset the device did not help me but it does triggers me to attempt to resend the PDF file attachment on email--and it works the 2nd time. My problem is now solved.
The Adobe Reader is very helpful--it allows me to scroll through the document easily, unlike iBooks, where I cannot scroll straight up or down.

Wav file attachements

Pure Music software player is not working with iTunes 10.4 and Lion 10.7 playing wav. files.

Pure Music player from Channel D software will not work when playing wav. files after updating to Lion OS. I can open the application as usual but after playing one song it will not advance to the next track either on its own or manually. The scrolling track name goes dim and I cannot get the play button to respond. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Thanks Limnos, but unfortunately the same error still remains.
The disk was OK. Permissions had errors along the lines of groups should be 0, is 80. I repaired that. Tried again to open, then reinstalled (new download again), but again the same problem.
I checked permissions again and some of the 0-80 errors came again, but no clear reason from there I think
Was also a SUID warning on ARDAgent but I see online that doesn't appear to be something abnormal.
I tried reloading Lion but the installation came back with software appears to have been tampered with (I think the dmg file is gone as I couldn't find it). I then went to email to report a problem so I could download again but of course that whole process doesn't work because itunes wont open.
So Stuck
if there is anything else I might be missing?

Playing wav file through my bluetooth?

Is there any way I can have wave files play through my bluetooth headset(Jawbone)? I'm not looking to play music, I just want to play my voicemails that I receive through email as an attachment.
Any help?

Hello, I am having the same problem. We have a Curve 8330 with a Jabra T5330 bluetooth device. The device works great when using it with the phone, but we use Unified Messaging for our voicemail and need to listen to .wav files delivered via email. These .wav files do not come through the bluetooth device. Do we need a different headset (one that supports stereo perhaps) or is something configured incorrectly on the Blackberry? Thanks in advance!

Blackberry 8330 - can't play wav files - Red X and "unknown error occured"

I have a client that started having an issue with her blackberry after we moved to BES Express 5.02. Her .wav file association on her computer was changed so she couldn't play .wav files on her PC. Then she stated getting a red X on her phone when trying to listen to the Cisco unity voice mail messages that are attached to emails.
I was able to correct the issue on her PC by re-associating the .wav file with windows media player.   However on the blackberry, the .wav file still will not play. Is there a file association section on a blackberry device? If not what else might be the issue?   she is the only person having the issue. I don't use a blackberry so i don't know the menu options very well.
Thanks
Steve.
P.S.
Oh, The phone was factory reset before being added to the new BES, Service books and IT policy Applied correctly.   I could pull the phoen and reset it again but I don't know if that would correct the issue.

Hi - I am now having this same exact problem on my Mac laptop.   I have many Breaking Bad, etc TV shows that I purchased through itunes & have watched over the years & now all of those, as well as, any new shows I purchase will not play on my laptop.    Just same as above person -- a black screen that appears to be playing movie (the timer is actually playing) but no video or sound.    Shows / Movies all work fine on my home computer.
On my laptop it keeps saying .. "Not authorized to play .... & then says "Sign into Itunes.. "   - but I do sign out & sign back in & still nothing happens.   Very annoying and frustrating as I can ususlly figure things out with perserverence and trial & error.

I am using Firefox 3.6.13 and have installed Windows Media Player 1.0.0.8 for Firefox. However, if I attempt to open a file with a .wmv extension it appears to function properly, except, that I cannot "play" the file. What am I doing wrong?

You probably have not seen anyone reporting the exact same problem as you. All three crash reports have the same crash signature and as currently ranked 67 it is not the commonest of reasons for a crash.
I hope you enter your email contact information when reporting crashes. I note you see this crash when using videos, others may possibly see this crash in other circumstances.
You have already tried the obvious, attempts at a fix so it is now down to wait and see, maybe developers working on the bug will report something or fix it.
Did you try my suggestion of installing portable ESR ?

Error Playing .wav file on RHEL 4 using JMF

Hi,
We are using jmf api to play wav files on our application deployed on rhel version 4. But we are receiving the following error
**"Cannot find a Processor for: myfolder/myAudio.wav" --->
this exception is comming from javax.media.Manager
throw new NoProcessorException("Cannot find a Processor for: " + source);"**.
Any ideas what could be issue with this, am I missing some drivers/processor for wav files? I did a default jmf studio installation.
Thanks and Regards
Vikram Pancholi

If we take a look at the supported formats page...
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/formats.html]
And the WAV file is supported by the cross-platform pack, AKA, jmf.jar.
If you're unable to open a WAV file, I'd say it's most likely because you don't have JMF.jar on your library path. You can fix that at runtime with the switch -djava.library.path=<whatever>
That's what I would say the issue is.

Quicktime not playing .wav files

I cannot get .wav files to play.
I have installed Flip4Mac Beta for snow Leopard (twice) and even reinstalled Quicktime Player 7 just in case that would work since my Quicktime 10 (51) does not handle .wav files. This is a big problem.
Is there a solution since I think it may be something with my upgrade to snow leopard and incompatibility issues and hopefully this is an issue being worked on by apple.

"I have installed Flip4Mac Beta"
BETA=buggy. Suggest that you post your concerns over on the Flip4Mac forums.
There may be solutions regarding how to make their beta product work w/QT & Snow Leopard.
