Cannot view WMV files on iMAC

I installed Perian 1.2.3 as an add on to my Quicktime player to view WMV files, however after installing Perian I still cannot view them. Am I missing some steps. It comes up on my desk top (Perian 1.2.3) and after I open e-mails with video attatchents such as WMV, I still cannot view them. Please advise, if you can, thanks!

Pretty simple, download and install Flip4Mac. WMV is a MS Windows format so you need a method to convert the WMV files. You can find Flip4Mac at:

Cannot view pdf files in browser

brand new imac cannot view PDF files in browser but the PDF's can be viewed if downloaded. All the data in the PDF online have question marks instead, maybe a missing font issue?

Have Adobe Reader installed? If so, disable the AdobePDFViewer.plugin resident in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins., restart, and try again. For font-associated issues, peruse Font Management in OS X

When you say that you have the same problem, do you mean that you are:
1. Not able to download Adobe Reader;
2. cannot view a PDF file;
3. or what?
Please be a little more descriptive of your particular problem or, better yet, start your own thread and clearly indicate which problem(s) you're having and what you have done, thus far, to correct the problem(s).

Viewing .wmv files

This may be an old quesiton, but, I have problems viewing .wmv files online and when friends send .wmv files? I don't understand why? My computer is brand new this past Christmas.... When I select the file to be viewed an error message pops up with the Blue Q on the left side and it reads...."Error opening movie", then it says.... "The movie could not be opened".

Have you installed the Flip4Mac plugin for Quicktime yet?

Sounds like something has been added into the Reader folder. I would recommend uninstalling, running http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, removing any left over parts of the Reader folder (this might have been the problem), reboot, and reinstall. Hopefully that solves the problem. For future question about Reader, you should consider asking in the Reader forum, this is not it.

I cannot view pdf files on Safari, instead they download and open in viewer. How do I change this?

Does anyone have a solution for this???
"I cannot view pdf files on Safari, instead they download and open in viewer. How do I change this?"

Back up all data. Please read this whole message before doing anything, so you'll know what to expect.
Open Safari's preferences dialog and make notes of everything you would need to recreate the basic settings, such as your home page. That includes the settings of Safari extensions, if any are installed.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste (command-V) into the box that opens and press return. A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open.
Launch Safari. Its settings will have reverted to what they were they first time you launched it. Your bookmarks, history, and AutoFill data will be preserved.
Test. If Safari now works as expected, recreate its settings and delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Safari again and put the file you moved back where it was, overwriting the newer one created in its place. Post your results.

How to view wmv files

How to you view "wmv" files on ipad 2

WMV files aren't natively supported on the iPad - you will either need to convert them before putting them on the iPad, or you could have a look in the app store for a third-party app e.g. search for 'wmv'

Cannot view jpg files in full page mode. Contents of jpg files are enlarged so that it requires 4 pages to print one page.

When people send me jpg files that contain a page of information, I cannot view the file in full page mode. I can only view 1 quadrant of the page at a time. If I print the jpg file, it uses 4 pieces of paper (1 quadrant per page). Others who receive this file can view it fine.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== It has always worked this way.

There is an option for the Initial View that is "Magnification:" "Fit Page". And this works for the initial page when the PDF is opened and it does not matter what the page size it, Acrobat/Reader will automatically fill the screen with the page. If you want the zoom type to change with each page then you need add a page open script to each page to set the pages zoom type to "zoomtype.fitP"
this.zoomType = zoomtype.fitP;

Can I view .WMV files with 10.7?

Can I view .wmv files with OS 10.7.2?

Mac OS X has no native ability to view WMV files, but you can download and install the free codecs from Flip4Mac:
http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
and use QuickTime Player. Note that not all WMV codecs have been ported to Mac, nor has the copy protection system, so not all videos will work.

Viewing WMV files stored on an SD card - Treo 650

This has probably been covered in another thread, but I am new to the Treo 650 and a "search" function on this forum seems to be eluding me..
Is there a 3rd party app (or better yet installed software!) that I need to view files on an SD card on my machine?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Ken
Post relates to: Treo 650 (Verizon)

Cola, there are no native programs for viewing wmv files on PalmOS device!
Purchaseable programs are Kinoma 4 EX, or CorePlayer. Both can read wmv video files.
Viewing programs on an SD card is different from running raw video or audio files. Free programs such as Filez, 3xCommander, or File Manager can view the contents of both your device's RAM and it's SD card.

Cannot view pdf files.

I cannot view PDF files.Every now & then will allow page to be read however as soon as I go to another on the same site the window comes up with nothing in it.Adobe 9.3 definitely installed.Up to last week there were no problems. Internet connection OK. Any advice would be appreciated.

I cannot view pdf files with free download from Adobe. Simple

I cannot view pdf documents, since recent download of Adobe Reader. Click pdf doc, Adobe opens, but bleeps if I click anywhere on the screen, then closes.
Recently I tried to look at my Amex Statement online, but Adobe wouldn't show the file.
I downloaded the Statement, but every attempt to view, is futile!!!!!!
Today, I downloaded, Assistant and signed in. Also Adobe Air. But still the Statement cannot be viewed.
If this is a free download, why change the setup so the damn thing doesn't work, when downloaded. I don't want to view the "World", just 1 document. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. (Words of some intellect, I would say) (Please take note)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Use the Adobe Cleaner to completely uninstall Reader. http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, download the full offline installer here: http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and run it to reinstall a good working copy of Reader.
