Error 47: invalid url AND QUICKTIME PRO

I'M WANTING TO WATCH OLD STREAMING BROADCASTS FROM OHIO WESLEYAN WEBSITE. UPGRADED TO QUICKTIME PRO LAST NIGHT. CAN'T GET THESE ARCHIVED EVENTS TO OPEN IN PRO(WANT TO WATCH A FULL SCREEN). I PASTE THE URL ON THE PRO PLAYER AND GET THE INVALID URL MESSAGE. ALSO WONDERING IF I CAN WATCH LIVE STREAM OF FOOTBALL GAME TODAY OR IF THE INVALID URL WILL POP UP? WONDERING WHY THE QUICKTIME WHICH OPENS UP THE ARCHIVED EVENTS ISN'T IN SYNCH WITH MY DOWNLOAD

Turn off caps lock.
I couldn't get the "archives" pages to load any QuickTime content but was able to view the page source code to find the URL.
rtsp://streaming.owu.edu/070210_mbb.mov
To open any file directly in the Player requires a "direct" link to the file (not the Web page that holds it).

Quicktime: "Error 47: Invalid Url. ()"

When one is trying to watch movie trailers on http://trailers.apple.com/ and choosing 720p or 1080p one gets a popup with -> "Error 47: Invalid URL. ()"
This problem started some time in june and I am not alone to have this problem.
But so far there is no solution to it.
Tried to reinstall quicktime and even tried to reinstall the os but no luck so far.
Os: Windows 7 X64 Sp1
Browser: Chrome (even tried Internet Explorer but same problem)

maybe this helps,
if you're on windows 7 like me, run quicktime in xp compatibility
to do this: got to C:\Program Files\QuickTime (or the location you installed QT)
right click on quicktimeplayer.exe and in the compatibility tab checkmark ''run in compatibility mode'' or something (sorry my windows is in dutch) and choose xp sp3
hope this helps, it fixed my problem, I was getting Error 47:0 on HD trailers.
but now the QT player opens and the trailer plays in full HD

When following your instructions on setting a blank new tab, I get and error message "invalid url", even though the sting entered in the config is as you state.

I would like a blank new tab to open, but have followed the help guidance to modify the about:config.
However, for all strings shown, I get a consistent error message "invalid url", even though the string has been copied correctly.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

ERROR 47: Invalid URL () Needs To Be Fixed...

Hi,
I have read a lot of discussions on this website and others,
When I do a web search for this error it brings up a lot of unanswered topics.
And it looks like there s a error that needs fixing by the developers of Quicktime Player.
ERROR 47: Invalid URL () Needs
This error appears in a pop up window when I try to play certain URLs in quicktime player,
We also tested it with the pro version and the same error occurs.
It was working fine then it just throws this error.
This type of hashed URL use to work fine:
http://www.site.com/file-a5f81d6-bb2c-4aa4-8737-4a3a81a529a6&MovieID=314

I got some code a few years back, I used it to build a video delivery application.
The system can deliver video URLs, when the user clicks the system, it fetches a fake/hashed URL from the database.
The user receives an URL similar to the one I posted above, when they put the URL in Quicktime player it loads up the actual .mov file.
But the hashed URL is all that's seen, I tested it in QuicktimePlayer 100's of times, even in web browser, it would open Quicktime plugin.
Not any more.

Error 47: Invalid URL. ()

For the last few weeks when trying to download an HD trailer (480p, 720p, 1080p) for ANY movie, I keep getting the message Error 47: Invalid URL. (). I have tried in IE 9.0, Firefox 5.0 and Chrome (12.0.742.112) and ALL give me the same result.
I am running the lastest version of QuickTime Player - 7.6.9 (1680.9) [QuickTime Version 7.6.9 (1680.9)] on Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit.
I have also tried on Windows Vista Business 32-bit SP2 running QuickTime Player - 7.6.5 (518.4) [QuickTime Version 7.6.5 (1327.80)] with IE 9.0, Firefox 3.5.4 and still giving me the same results.
I have found suggestions from posts that are anywhere from 2007-2009 but they do NOT work.
This has obviously been an issue for quite some time and with NO resolution.
I do hope an Apple developer or someone reads this so that we can find out what is being done.
If nothing gets done, then I guess I have no choice but to go to other sites like Yahoo or HD-Trailers, to view trailers that actually work.

I have the "Error 47: Invalid URL" problem, too. Startet a few weeks ago, never had this problem in the past.
My current system:
PC
Intel Core i5 750 (4x 2.67 GHz)
8 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GTX 275
Windows 7 x64 Home Premium SP1 (german) - all updates installed
Quicktime 7.6.9 (german)
I testet with Firefox 5.0 and Internet Explorer 9.0.1, a few seconds after selecting HD Trailer on trailers.apple.com (e.g. 720p), I got the error 47 messagebox and "QuickTimePlayer.exe*32" was listet in the Taskmanager under processes, but no GUI loaded. I had to kill the process.
I also tried disabling my Norton Internet Security, but has no effect.
When I "save to ..." and try to open the (very small) *.mov file in Quicktime I get an error, too.
Other *.mov files from my HDD working fine.
Yesterday I tried my old PC (Pentium 4 3.2 GHz, 2 GB RAM, Windows XP 32-bit SP3) and I could watch the HD Trailers with Firefox 5.0 and IE 8.0 with no problems!
While the "invalid URL" points to a problem on the apple website, maybe it only happends on Windows 7 / 64-bit systems.

Netflix viewed perfect for over a month, then it didn't with this error msge: Invalid URL The requested URL "/home", is invalid. Reference #9.9d0bc841.1320231048.92bcc44 --What's up with this now?

Been watching Netflix on my Verizon HP Notebook, it's less than 3mo old. runs windows xp...pretty standard stuff. Anyway tried to login to netflix and Firefox gave this error message--Invalid URL
The requested URL "/home", is invalid. Reference #9.9d0bc841.1320231048.92bcc44 -- I called Netflix & there system running perfectly. My pc running perfectly as well. Logged into netflix using IE--worked just fine. So by process of elimination, it's Firefox's Problem! I have NO CLUE about it, never seen it before on ANY browser. Tried opening & closing FFx, restarting puter, etc...Don't know what else to tell you except Firefox works on every other website now EXCEPT NETFLIX, it's the darnedest (I know that's not a word LOL) I've seen--it happened 10/2/11 @ about 3am!

As I understand:
The procedure works.
The link 'appears' to work. (ie you saw the procedure run a 2nd at the database level)
But it doesn't actually work (because you get a 404)
I think I ran into an issue, on a completely different page type, that produced an 'error 404'. (I can't seem to reproduce it, though)
The only way I discovered what was really going on was with an HTTP sniffer. (eg HTTPFox for FireFox)
Through that, I noticed that the browser was (for some reason) calling a completely non-sensible APEX page. (hence the PAGE NOT FOUND error)
My solution was to add a "submit to self" branch point.
If that doesn't work, I'm at a loss.

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am

I am traveling with my macbook pro and I forgot to install final cut express and quicktime pro before I left. How can I in a way download them for free on my laptop from where I am? I need them and don't want naturally to buy them again!!!
Thank you

Assuming you purchased QT Pro, you can always download it again at no extra charge by logging in to your Apple account.
Regarding FCE, there is no way to download & install the product. You need an original FCE install disk and your FCE serial number.
Final Cut Pro X (aka FCPX) can be purchased & downloaded from the App Store.

I have a Quicktime video posted on my website. It plays perfectly in Safari but won't reload in Firefox unless I clear the cache. I have Firefox 4.0.1, Quicktime plugin 7.6.6 and Quicktime Pro 10.0..

Audio error message on playback and P Pro CS6 won't stop playback. Have to force quit.

Hello: I'm getting an audio error message on playback and P Pro CS6 won't stop playback. Have to force quit.
Earlier in the project, I would crash when moving audio up/down tracks or up/down time line.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,

That screenshot will help us figure out what's going wrong, but I won't have any news until at least July 8 because our offices are shut down next week. In the meantime, two suggestions:
Download CC and see if this crash occurs in the new version.
Google cpp-99 premiere pro audio prefetch. I got several hits, but not dig into them to see if any had a solution or workaround.

Error 47: Invalid URL. 0

Everytime I click file, open url, I enter the url and no matter what url I enter I keep getting that Error message. I can not play anything from the internet. I have shut down my firewall, I have done a discscan, I have deleted temp files, I have even uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime but nothing works. Please can someone help me. I am using Quicktime Pro.

I have fixed the problem for myself.
-Download and install orca.msi (http://www.technipages.com/download-orca-msi-editor.html).
-Uninstall quicktime. Then open the quicktimeinstaller, but do not proceed the installation (!!), just leave the installation screen hanging there for a while.
- Search for the quicktime.msi file in your tempfolder and open this file in Orca.
- In Orca you go to View/Summary Information. There you delete all the languages except for 1033.
- Now you can proceed with the Quicktime installation!
All these instructions came from this forummessage: http://www.appdeploy.com/messageboards/tm.asp?m=24475&mpage=1&key=&#24549
Hope this is gonna work for you guys too!

Invalid key for Quicktime Pro

Okay, I'm feeling pretty irate right now after paying out £20 for a product key which was emailed to me for 'instant access' but doesn't bleeding work... Having followed the simple steps, I pasted in my key and got the message 'invalid key' instead of 'Quicktime Pro 7' or whatever...
Will someone here, or someone at Apple please explain to me how in God's name that can happen!
There was something I needed to do with it before the night is over - yet now obviously I can't and what's more I am 20quid out of pocket!
If someone at Apple is reading, I suggest you call or, at the very least, email me with some form of apology for this situation.
Answers please...

Well, having waited til daybreak to call the support line, I found out that the key alone will not validate the product - you have to enter the name of the person who ordered and paid for it (in this case me) but exactly as they wrote in in the email... I had neglected to put a '.' after 'Mr' and hence the whole thing didn't work. Add the dot, and hey presto...
The guy on the line was very cordial about it but did mention that they get this 'all the time'...
Apple take note... You should make that clearer - especially since my account is in my name - the Mr was selected from a scroll-down menu - and since many people don't even use the dot any more - well it can be confusing...

Error Messages for iTunes and Quicktime, what do I do?

Hello, I'm in need of some help.
Let me walk you all through what I did for the last 4 hours:
(important note: I suck at far too much computer stuff, so I am fully aware that as you read the following, at certain points I probably made the problem much worse than it needed to be, I am not proud of this, but everything you read did happen, stupid as it probably was for me to pursue the problems in the particular way that I did. Hindsight is 20/20.)
I updated my iTunes v7.7 to v8.0 today, and after trying it out for a while decided that I didn't like it and wanted to go back to what I was using before.
So, because I didn't know what else to do, I tried to re-install the original iTunes software that came with my iPod (a 20gig classic I bought in 2004). That version of iTunes was v6.0 (again, 3 years ago).
Part way through the installation process, I got a message that said that, because I had a newer version of iTunes on the computer already, it wouldn't install the version on the disk.
So I uninstalled v8.0, restarted my computer, and installed the v6.0 from the CD-ROM I had.
It was then that I found I had NONE of the 6000+ songs in my iTunes window. I checked my computers files to find that they were still in the library, but my iTunes screen was completely devoid of all my music.
So I tried to get it all back on the player. I discovered that by right-clicking "Play" for the individual files from the folders in my iTunes that they would come up on the player, but that meant that I'd be clicking in 6000+ songs, one by one, till they were all back. I didn't want to do that.
So I tried a system restore (again, read "important note" at top of post). After that happened and I was looking at my desktop again, tried opening iTunes, and it gave me a message that said:
"iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
And it asks if I wanna send an error report. I decline, then try opening Quicktime. Same message. So I try to uninstall both programs (i know, i know, "important note"), and iTunes uninstalls, Quicktime does not, because, as my computer puts it, "a fatal error occurs."
But since I have iTunes uninstalled, I go to apples site and download iTunes v8.0 again. After waiting for all that to get done, I get the same error message.
So I peruse this very discussion forum, and after looking for a good while at what is being recommended I go to a site and download v7.7 again.
Again, I get the same error message.
So here I am. I've tried working it out myself for the last 4 hours, and I seem to have made things worse.
So please, please, PLEASE, I ask for any help you can provide.
Can I get my iTunes back?
Is my Quicktime corrupted now?
Am I totally screwed?

I had the same problem when I went to upgrade to 8 and then downgrade back to 7.7. To fix this is a little involved, but you can do it. Let me put it this way, I talked my mother through it on the phone, and she has a hard time finding the power button So no worries, I'll help you get back up and running. I am running Vista now, so I am going off of memory for Vista, so bear with me.
I would do the following:
1. Uninstall both iTunes and Quicktime by going to Control Panel-Add Remove Programs, and choosing first Quicktime then iTunes.
2. Clean your registry. Easy now, it is not that hard. To do it, go to http://www.ccleaner.com/download and download CCleaner. It is free and has NO spyware. Install it and run the registry cleaner. It will remove any trace of both programs from the registry. Now you have 2 choices.
3a. Now I would install iTunes 8. Because you already installed it once, it converted its database file that it uses to track the library and play lists up to the iTunes 8 standard.
3b. If you have no problem loosing your playlists and library settings, you can go back to iTunes 7.7. To do this, first search for "itunes.ttl". To do this, go to Start-Search Files and Folders- and type in "iTunes.ttl" Once the search finishes, it will tell you where it is located. Navigate there using Windows Explorer or My Computer and delete it. Now you can install iTunes 7.7 with out any errors. You will not loose any files! just your playlists and it will not remember what is in your library.
As far as adding your songs again, did you try to re-importing your music? If you go to the file menu-add folder to library. It will bring up a dialogue box that will allow you to browse to the folder with your music.
Let me know if this works. I will help in anyway I can.
Good Luck,

QuickTime Movie Files Won't Convert For iPod using iTunes and QuickTime Pro

I've got a ton, and I mean a ton of QuickTime movie files of music videos that I want to convert to use on the iPod. I tried using "Convert Selection For iPod" in the Advanced Menu on iTunes, but got the following message trying convert a QuickTime file of U2's Beautiful Day:
""Beautiful Day" could not be converted because this file does not allow for saving or conversion."
I purchased QuickTime Pro hoping that the features on Pro would convert the file. When I opened the same file to convert using QuickTime Pro, "Export" under the file menu was grayed out so I couldn't select it.
You'd think that an APPLE QuickTime Movie file that can be played on APPLE'S iTunes and APPLE'S QuickTime Player would be able to be converted to be used in APPLE'S iPod player. (Anybody notice how APPLE is capitalized to point out that the the hardware, software and file formats are ALL Apple?)
Instead I wasted money buying QuickTime Pro when it won't do what I specifically bought it for. Now I have all these QuickTime files which won't play on the iPod.
Can anybody provide some help or assistance on how to accomplish what I'm trying to accomplish???

If the file doesn't allow saving or conversions then it is protected by DRM (Fairplay).
Nothing can help QuickTime Pro convert protected files.

Final Cut Pro HD and Quicktime Pro????

Can anyone tell me if I need to have Quicktime Pro in order to be able to edit movie files in FCP HD?
The Quicktime files I have in my Capture Scratch are on an external hardrive and WERE CAPTURED FROM A COMPUTER USING QUICKTIME PRO. My Powerbook has Quicktime 7.0.4 and when I try to play the capture scratch media, it plays for a second and then stops. It's impossible to edit in FCP HD as well.
Any expertise would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks for any help.

You don't need QT PRO in order to edit with FCP. All QT PRO is is unlocked features of QT, the ability to export footage in multiple formats, download QT Movies and add filters to movies you open.
If something was captured with a machine with QT Pro you should be able to edit them fine. It depends on what format the files are that you are trying to edit.
FYI, movies captured with QT generally don't work in FCP. They aren't an editable format. They are mpeg-2 or h.264 which are meant for direct web posting or DVD burning, but not editing in FCP. If you want to capture footage for editing, capture using FCP.

New ipod nano and error in updating itunes and quicktime (error 1905)

this is really annoying me, i have itunes 6.0 or 6.1 or something, and i recently purchased an ipod nano.it said the new nano was only compatable with itunes 7.1, so i went to apple.com and downloaded it. it took two hours to download the set-up for itunes 7.1. i ran the set-up, and then in the middle of it this error came up:
Error 1905.Module C:/ProgramFiles/Quicktime/GTUIPanelControl.dll failed to unregister. HRESULT -2147220472. Contact your support panel.
i pressed okay twice, and it went through the rest of the process and it says this:
Could not open key:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE/Software/Classes/QuickTime/CLSID. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personel.
all of this is very frustrating, but after i click "ok", it reads this:
The installation of QuickTime did not complete successfully.iTunes requires QuickTime.
Please help!i would like to utilize this ipod sooner than later, obviously.
thank you

I used that download, which seems to have worked for some people, but not others. It has something to do with downloading a VBScript. Anyway, I did this, but when I tried to complete its download, it said "Error registering the OCX C:\WINDOWS\system32\vbscript.dll"
I then tried to run that file through Run, typing in "regsvr32 %SystemRoot%\system32\vbscript.dll"
I was told it would "reregister" it. Unfortunately, I was met with other error message. ""DllRegisterServer in c:\WINDOWS\system32\vbscript.dll failed. Return code was 0x80004005"
I was told that it had something to do with not having adminstrative privilegdes. I've dealt with these "adminstrative priviledges" before when Norton refused to work, and its no happy mess. But if someone can shed any light on the situation, that would be great.
