Error with movies in Quicktime

I cannot see any movie in this computer. I've played them in another mac and they run well. They are in .avi and my quicktime only says that there is an error and that i might need to downoad something from the quicktime page but it does not say what.
The screen is just white when it opnes and also when a click play.
Has anyone had this problem?
MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

To The Apple Discussion Boards!
Open the file with QuickTime Player.
Open the Movie Info window (Command-i).
Note the name of the video codec used in the file.
Do a Google.com search for codec name +Mac and download one appropriate for your OS and computer.
Quit and relaunch QuickTime after installing the new codec.
Try the file again.
Thanks to QuickTimeKirk for the above info.
If the above does not work try VLC Media Player and/or Perian.

  • Quicktime errors with .mov's captured in premiere. HELP!

    I captured video through Adobe Premiere CS3 to a FAT32 external. It stopped twice during capture before I changed it to capture to the computers internal HD. I went back to retrieve the files that had stopped during capture. and the .mov files cannot be opened by anything. VLC says "no moov box" and quicktime says it's a filetype that it cannot understand.
    i've captured countless times through premiere and this has never happend. is there a way to repair the files, convert them, etc? help please.
    -Chris

    Chris -
    You don't want to be capturing video to a FAT 32 drive in the Mac world. Your QT wrapper didn't make it all the way around the file - probably because of a 2gig limit.
    If you are going to continue using this drive for scratch video drive remove everything, reformat to MAC OS Extended and re load. Capturing to your internal system drive isn't the best either, as you know.
    Good luck,

  • MIGO Goods Receipt - error with Movement Types on GR from Inbound Delivery

    Hi,
    I am getting an error message when processing a Goods Receipt (MIGO) against an Inbound Delivery with as 2 lines with different movement types, a standard 101 and a 970 (the latter being a user defined movement type for free goods).
    The error message I get is 'Movement type 970 is not allowed; only 101 is allowed
    Message no. BORGR622'
    This error message only occurs with a Goods Receipt against an Inbound Delivery, we are able to process a similar Goods Receipt using MIGO against a Purchase Order, with two different movement types 101 and 970, without any issues. 
    It is only a problem with a GR against an Inbound Delivery which is necessary in our MM solution.
    As anybody and ideas how to resolve this?  I cannot see anything obvious in config, and have not spotted any SAP OSS notes either.
    I should mention that we can process a single line Inbound Delivery and Goods Receipt for the Movement Type 970 also!

    Thanks for the reply.  The Price Control Indicator is 'S'.
    The solution was set up at my company before I joined, but the different movement type is to enable the free goods stock to make a Finance posting to a Bonus Stock GL Account.  Bonus stock sale update the same account.
    As I mention the '970' movement type worked fine with Goods Receipt against a Purchase Order (it was coded into to the user exit). 
    The MM procedures were changed to use the Inbound Delivery matched to the PO, this had a result that when the Goods receipt was posted in MIGO it posted as 101 movement, as the PO number was not being recognised.
    By making a further change to the user exit we able to suggest the '970' movement type, but now get the BORGR622 error I refer to.
    '511' is not possible against an inbound delivery either.

  • Error with movie thumbnails in Library module

    Hello!

  • Errors with movies or podcasts

    I keep getting errors when opening iWeb, such as couldn't load bundled movie. This also happens with some (but not all) podcasts that I share from GarageBand to iWeb.  I fix the errors and publish, but the next time I open iWeb, the errors are there again. I have fixed the errors a couple times now, but any time I launch iWeb, those same errors are back. 
    I'm using iWeb 3.0.4 on my MacBook Pro. I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks!

    Perhaps try Chargedneuron's suggestion with that:

  • Download errors with movie rentals

    I have a 32 GB iPAD with almost nothing loaded up yet. I tried to download two movies directly on to my ipad via the itunes store app on it. The movies started downloading until they suddenly stopped and it says on my ipod "download error tap to retry" . I retried it and it did the same thing so i waited a couple days and retried and it said the same error message. I already paid for these 2 movies is there any way i can download them?..

    I have the same issue on my brand new 32GB Wifi iPad bought in Montreal. Tried to download a rental in HD from the itunes store directly to the iPad. It almost completely downloaded and then upon checking the status of the download it said download error. Music video's, music, and apps all download just fine. When I tried "check for downloads" in iTunes on my Mac, it does not show up, and now I cant delete the space the partially downloaded rental occupies :S.

  • This movie requires QuickTime error message

    I have a new Mac, the latest OS, the latest QuickTime and the latest iTunes. Furthermore, all of my movies/TV shows are purchased via iTunes, so there are no dodgy ripped versions / home movies / media conversions or whatever. It is all Apple from hardware to software to media purchase.
    So, I get this message "The movie requires QuickTime which is not supported by this version of iTunes". It seems odd to me that somebody has actually written such an error message in the first place. How can any version of iTunes not support QuickTime, and yet, there is an "official" iTunes error message. Maybe it actually means "This movie requires (an older vesion of) Quicktime which is not supported?"
    Anyway, I have researched this already, of course, and there seems no agreed way of dealing with it. Some say rebooting works (if only), others say run it in 32 bit mode (it crashes), others say start it up in safe mode etc. I cannot make it work. A few diagnistic things that may help:
    I had several TV series of a show working fine. I downloaded a new series of the show, and now none of the series of that show play, and the artwork has gone.
    I tried deleting some shows and adding them to the library again, but they don't add. iTunes behaves as if the files simply aren't there - but they are.
    I can go to these shows and double click and they open and play with QuickTime with no problem, so the files are there, and work, and presumably have whatever "codecs" or whatever that are needed to play them.
    If anyone out there can help, I'd be really grateful.
    Oh, and a message for Apple, if anybody there bothers monitoring these things... This makes me really angry. I pay top dollar for your hardware and software becuase "it just works", then I have to pay a fortune for media bought through iTunes, which is usually far, far cheaper on DVD, and what do I get for that? Constant misery from iTunes. This is far from the first problem I have had. I don't rip or pirate stuff, I'm not trying anything clever, I don't have all sorts of rubbish installed on my Mac, or try running Windows or whatever. I am a simple Mac customer, running your basic stuff, and buying my media from you, and IT DOESN'T WORK. Pathetic! I wish to God I had never got into the whole Apple thing a few years back, which is something I constantly warn friends about if they say they like the look of my Mac.

    Have you compared the downloads using "Get Info" to see if the failing ones have some common attribute that the successful ones don't have?  For example, might either the failing or the successful ones be M4V files while the opposite attribute is something else?
    The other thing I've thought of is to ask whether you have any i-Devices (iPhone, iPad, etc.) that enter into the problem.  If you have any, they're not involved, right?

  • After Effects Error with Quicktime 7

    I upgraded to Quicktime 7 and now Adobe After Effects is causing audio errors. I cannot make a movie with audio without recieivng an error. I upgraded to Quicktime 7.02 pro, but no good.

    Same Error with After Effects 6.5.1 and QuickTime 7.0.3
    (On PowerBook G4, Mac OS X (10.4.3), 1024 MB RAM)
    AFTER EFFECTS ERROR: Opening File "%s" . sound
    channel - Can't open QuickTime handler (-2004).
    (10§65)
    Is there any alternate audio file format that might work - or does anyone think we need to reinstall an earlier version of QuickTime. According to Apple, QT6.5 is only compatible up to Panther - Mac OS X (10.3.9).
    There is also a Reinstaller to revert back to QT 7.0.1, but I don't know if that version of QuickTime is compatible with After Effects 6.5.1.
    Keep me posted. I'll keep trying.

  • Flash CC error with exported mov

    I'm trying to export my animation as a mov file and it does so successfuly. Then when I try to open it with Quicktime it says there is an error and can not open it. The error states "The movie can't be opened because the file is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands."
    On top of that, when Adobe Media Encoder CC opens up it also states there is an error with the file.
    I am exporting as a video and haven't chosen any settings that are out of the ordinary. Why is the export not working?

    Hi Sarah,
    I have just tried the Video Export of the file that you have provided vincecamuto-600x150-2.fla and it looks like it is working as expected.
    I have used Flash CC 2014 and Windows 7 and QuikTime Player 7.7.2
    Please let me now your Flash version and OS details if they are different from the one mentioned above.
    Have posted the exported video at http://adobe.ly/1m3CYpf

  • Updated document about QuickTime errors with After Effects (re: H.264 and hyperthreading)

    I just updated "troubleshooting QuickTime errors with After Effects CS5, CS5.5, and CS6" with information about hyperthreading and Apple's H.264 encoder.
    The gist is that Apple's H.264 exporter component for QuickTime fails when the computer has a large number of CPUs.

    No, this applies to any QuickTime H.264 export. You can export H.264 in a QuickTime .mov wrapper out of AME, too, and it will have this problem.
    The various H.264 encoding presets (for YouTube, Blu-ray, Vimeo, iPad, etc.) don't use the H.264 QuickTime component, so this isn't relevant to them.
    This problem is just relevant to choosing Apple's H.264 as the video codec when choosing QuickTime as a format. This applies to all software that uses QuickTime, by the way, not just Adobe software.

  • Error opening movie quicktime error

    Just finished rendering a 2hr. movie that took a day to render, when i tried to open it up "error opening movie".
    The file is 29gigs but won't open.I've tried Compressor, Final cut, Imovie,Quick time,..nothing opens it.
    This was done on my G4 laptop
    Help
    Vic

    It all has to do with the format of the file you are exporting (I assume you are exporting and not just rendering a sequence). If you are exporting from FCP, "Item settings" will create a new file with the same settings as your sequence or clip. If you are creating the file from another program such as after effects, any available formats there should be supported by QuickTime, but you might possible need to enable an additional codec for QT.
    Otherwise, if the redering process is preventing your project file from reopening, I would manually throw away the render files and trash your prefs.

  • Garageband export to quicktime gives "error opening movie"

    hi
    i've tried to export a movie without success. i imported video from imovie and added 3 audio tracks from itunes. i exported at full resolution several times to quicktime, but each time gives "error opening movie" could not open movie dialogue box. i exported it to idvd and succeeded. but i need quicktime. any help?
    thanks
    bill

    I have tried trashing the plist file. The files look fine through the media manager when copied to the other profile. They look like they are suppose to. The small videos also look fine when played on that computer. Unfortunately our other mac pro computer doesn't have final cut so i can't open and play proress files and my laptop, due to the extreme resolution can't be played on my laptop with final cut studio installed. Tomorrow i'm going to install the proress decoder on the one mac pro to check the files and make sure the self contained is checked but i'm almost positive on that. Other than nuking the profile i don't know what else to do. This is really weird.

  • TS3771 My iTunes U no longer works since the update, an error message pops up saying that "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed the tutorial that suggests to change to from 64 to 32 bit and it didn't

    iTunes U video files no longer work on my computer since i update to Mavericks. The following message appears on the screen "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed a tutorial that suggested to go to Applications/iTunes/Get Info and change to 32 bit. Now my iTunes does not open at all, it says it requires 64 bit. I am a bit confused and disappointed. What should I do to get it fixed? Buy a new MacBook?

    Marcello, I am having the same problem.  When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
    I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini. 
    I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward.
