Files not opening in Quicktime X

I am compressing some files to Quicktime. Oddly, they will not open in Quicktime X, but they will in Quicktime 7!? Any ideas why?
Here are the settings:
These files are intended for streaming (progressive download) from my web site (Wordpress, FLV Embed player)

HI Tracey, hmmm this is unusual indeed.I'd concur this is not pecifically a Compressor.app issue, more likley the sub-coponents.
Just another thought... would you have a look in /var/logs/ or use the console.app to see if there are any error messages issued by Quicktime X.app when you attempt to open the seond clip? It was usual that QT would display an error through the QT ui.... but who knows.
There maybe some other error messgae indirecty related by an asynchronous process that is kicked off by QT through the framework... again who knows.
Anyway if you see any unual error messages relating to the DECODing of the clip, you might post these for the readers to see and perhaps attempt then to isoltae the QT X opening issue.
post your results back for others to see if you can.

When using safari, media such as mp4, as a web mail attachment (yahoo) is not opening in QuickTime . File association is broken. Does any1 have a solution?

When using safari, media such as mp4, as a web mail attachment (yahoo) is not opening in QuickTime . File association is broken.
If I use the mail application the attachment opens and I see the QuickTime logo on the attachment.
When using the web mail yahoo the attachment, an mp4 audio, opens a black page with a crossed triangle icon in the middle of the page.
Any solution ?
Thanks .

There's two ways you can deploy your aspx (layout) files. One is deploy in _Layouts folder (which basically copy the file in (c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\web server extensions\15\template\layouts). To copy file in that place, you don't
need module, just use SharePoint mapped folder.
Another way is to upload the layout folder in SharePoint library. But _catalogs is not the right place to upload your file (_catalogs doesn't have any subfolder named 'layouts'). You can upload your file in 'Pages' library or 'site pages' library in the
current web.
I'm not quite sure though (sorry I didn't get what the problem is but just guessed you are trying to get your aspx page in SharePoint designer, not sure why) why you need to upload the file in pages/site pages library instead of '_layouts' folder.
Thanks,

Quick Time file not opening

Suddenly QuickTime 7.5.5 stopped opening the movies stored in one Hard Disc.
Here are descriptions of how problem occurs:
1) The preview in finder +column view+ shows only blank space, but not a movie.
2) Instead of opening the file QT claims that "This is not a movie file"
3) Not all the movies in the disk are injured but about 80 % of them. There might be in same folder movies that behaves normally and movies that behaves as described above.
I have restarted the machine few times and repaired the disk with disk utility, with not any couraging results...
If there were any ideas what the problem might be, and how to fix it, advices would be very much appreciated.
Screenshots of the problem:
http://koti.welho.com/tsuonio1/File-not-open.jpg

Two possibilities spring to mind. One is that the HD itself has been damaged somehow. Try copying one of the "bad" video files to your boot drive and opening from there. If it won't copy, your HD is clearly bad, if it copies and plays then something weirder is going on with the drive.
The other possibility has to do with the h264 codec you used. Apple's implementation of the H264 standard is a work in progress, they've been gradually adding features that are part of the full standard and may have broken something. If you recently upgraded QT that may be the problem. If you created the files using a third party H264 codec that might explain the playback problems. Also, you should install Perian (www.perian.org) and see if that helps, their codec plays back many formats that Apple doesn't support out of the box.
You may need to upload one of the bad files to an filesharing website of some kind so that other folks here can download and look at it themselves.

How do i tell the finder to open all of my .m4v files to open with quicktim

How do i tell the finder to open all of my .m4v files to open with quicktime, not itunes. i tryed right clicking on it and choosing other and selecting quicktime then checking the box that says "always open with" but that only pertains to that one file not all of them.

Right click and choose "get info" then choose quicktime from the "open with" drop down menu.
Then below that you will see "Change all" click that and your done.

Getting Message as "File not open", when I ran background Job

Hi,
I developed a Migration Program, Which reads the data from Application serever and procced with further process in back ground mode.

PDF File not opening in browser for sharepoint 2010

Recently we have moved our web application from one server to another in Sharepoint 2010. Back up of entire web application was taken and restored in another server. But in the new server , the PDF files in the document library is not getting opened in browser.
it always open in browser
I have already made following changes but didn,t work
Set browser file handling to Permissive from central admin
Set "open in browser" in setting s of doc library
Set the doc library file handling property using $docLib = $web.lists["Your Document Library Title"] $docLib.BrowserFileHandling = "Permissive" $docLib.Update()
Added "AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeType.Add("Application/Pdf") in web app
Installed Adober eader in client machine
Even after trying all these, the PDF files are still opening in Client application(Adobe reader) but not in the browser
It would have been great help if anybody provide a solution for this. I have been banging head on this for two days

It would be handy if you didn't double post too.

To answer your question, you've tried most things that I normally see working, but there may be an extra solution here for you. The solution 2 Powershell that deals with updating the Inline MimeType may help.

Pdf file not opening on pushing fdf file with F key in Adobe Reader

Well i am a novice developer in case of PDF Development.
The problem which i am facing is:-
In our application a PDF document submits the data to server and server sends back FDF to client with f key as http path of PDF which is present on web server.
This all works well in acrobat professional 7.0 but in abobe reader 8.0 the PDF file doesn't open up on pushing FDF.
On debugging the problem i found out that if server sends response within 480 milliseconds then reader is showing the pdf otherwise it don't shows up.Since in our application it will always take more than this time because of several operation performed to serve the request posted to server,So the
PDF will never show up in case of reader.
I was unable to understand what make it special in acrobat professional that session lasts more than 480 milliseconds whereas in reader the session doesn't last that long.
I really need uregent help on this.
Thanks in advance for help.

It would be handy if you didn't double post too.

.indd files not opening with recently installed Indesign CS3

The .indd files don't have the Indesign icon next to them, instead they have the win32 icon. When I double click on one of the files an error message appears telling me that...
"this file is not a valid win32 application"
Even when I right-click on the file and choose to open with Indesign, it tells me the same thing. Also in this options menu, Indesign is not shown with the Indesign logo next to it, but rather the windows generic 'unknown file type' logo.
If I open Indesign first however, and then choose file>open and choose the file. It opens fine.

Exactly my situation yesterday, with the icon disappearing and INDD files not opening within InDesign from Explorer.
I'm using an early XP Pro, which I guess qualifies it as 32 bit.
The steps to rebuilding everything using the Folder Options in Windows Explorer are:
Tools > Folder Options > File Types
If INDD is not listed, click the New button to creat an entry, otherwise select it and click the Advanced button.
You have an option to change the icon, so navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS3 and select the InDesign icon.
Then under actions you need to create four actions that will relate to the context menu choices when you right click an INDD files, so click New and add actions for edit, open, preview and print.
In the Application used to perform action box enter "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS3\InDesign.exe" "%1"
Those quote marks are important. Just browsing to InDesign.exe will fill the box for you, but for some reason - for me at least - it creates the %1 indicating to open the file you selected, but it doesn't wrap it in quotes. And without those quotes (at least on my machine) InDesign will start but won't load the file.
There is also a check box to use DDE. I don't know what's appropriate here, but I ticked the box and it works OK.

Mov reference file will not open in QuickTime 7.7.4 for Windows

Hi,
I have a mov reference file which opened fine in QuickTime 7.6.2 but since upgrading to 7.7.4 the file will no open. I get the following error:
Error -2002: a bad public movie atom was found in the movie.
The file contains one PAL MPEG2 video track and one stereo PCM audio track. It also contains a timecode track.
See movie inspector below:
Can anyone help me understand why this file will not open with the latest version of QuickTime. I cannot supply the file but can give any information about atoms etc. which can be read using QTAtomViewer.
I am using Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008.
Many thanks,
Kate

For those who want to call, the following menu options will get you to the Quick Time install tech support:
2 - takes you to the Quick Time submenu
2 - takes you to tech support
then, choose 1 for Mac or 2 for windows
Initially, I was told by tier 1 tech rep Shawn that the update server may not be up or that it may be a firewall issue on my side.
After telling him that I have confirmed that it is a problem with the update server sending a NULL (0 byte) response to the update query, he said I would have to just download the latest one in order to have the most up-to-date version and "just check back periodically to see if the update server is working".
He mentioned there was a Quick Time standalone download available (http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html), but that is still ~20MB & doesn't help the fact that probably over 90% of the people who run Quick Time have the option to automatically check for updates set and will never realize they're running an old, vulnerable version of Quick Time.
He gave me a case number after I asked for one: 58027568
If you'd like to add to mine and/or Rob's, it surely couldn't hurt.
I suppose my next course is to try emailing contacts at apple to see what kind of response they have. Considering this problem has been there ever since QT 7 for Windows has been released (I don't remember ever checking for updates when running QT 7 beta), it's strange that it's still a problem.

Some .avi files dont open with QuickTime or MPlayer. Please help!

Hi! I have few .avi files which are not played by QuickTime and when I open them with MPlayer OS X 2, the sound is on but the video doesnt come up. Please help!

Hi Niel, Installed both. Both play the sound but NO video.. When opened in MPEG Streamclip no messages appeared so, there was nothing to accept. Appreciate your reply but if you know any other way of working this out please help. Many thanks Niel!

How do you burn a video file not compatible with quicktime?

Hello all,
I am very new at this so I apologize if the solution is very simple - i just can't seem to work this iDVD thing...
I've searched through the forums and can't seem to find exactly what I need, please point me in the right direction if a solution has already been posted elsewhere.
Okay, so my problem is trying to burn movies to DVD. I don't actually have to use iDVD, but it's the only solution i've come up with. My problem is when I add a movie file (lets say, something that will ONLY OPEN with VLC), and press preview, no movie files show up... but when i put in a video file that will play with quicktime, the preview works fine.
So i suspect the preview wont play because the file is not compatible with quicktime.
have any of you tried this? All i want is to be able to play a downloaded movie on the dvd player downstairs
regards,
Peter

iDvd is not a general burn utility. However, there's a very good chance (whatever that file is) that Toast will burn it to Dvd-R. And if not (which is unlikely) then do as suggested already and use Mpegstream Clip. It's 100% free! However Mpeg 2 playback component may run you a few bucks (if needed).
Or the alternative is to invest hundreds of dollars in Apple software and use apps like FCP and DVDSP (or FCS) along with QT Pro. Nine times out of ten this combination tends to work well ... but it ain't cheap (not to mention a rather steep learning curve).

HI Tracey, hmmm this is unusual indeed.I'd concur this is not pecifically a Compressor.app issue, more likley the sub-coponents.
Just another thought... would you have a look in /var/logs/ or use the console.app to see if there are any error messages issued by Quicktime X.app when you attempt to open the seond clip? It was usual that QT would display an error through the QT ui.... but who knows.
There maybe some other error messgae indirecty related by an asynchronous process that is kicked off by QT through the framework... again who knows.

QuickTime movie not opening in QuickTime Player?

I recorded a video using PhotoBooth which now will not open in any of my players, QuickTime, VLC, HandBrake.
Finder tells me that it's a QuickTime Movie file, but QuickTime Player says "QuickTime Player can't open "Movie on 4-12-12 at 8.20 PM" because the movie's file format isn't recognized."
Why won't it open, and how can I get it to open?
Additionally, I recorded a different video this morning and it plays just fine.

If a Photo Booth movie is interrupted--by clicking the red "traffic light" button in the upper left corner of the PB window, by putting the Mac to sleep, by a sudden power disruption, etc.--the recording will usually be left in an unfinished, unplayable state. There is no simple, free fix to create a playable movie from the unrecognized file. At least two companies offer repair services/software--at a price. Both offer free diagnostics to learn whether the interrupted movie might be recovered before you think about plunking down your cash.
