Getting Quicktime movies to play on iPhone

I have been updating my web site, moving it from GoLive over
to Dreamweaver and doing a revamp (you can see it at
Whale of a Tale Productions)
but I am having issues getting my Quicktime Video to play on my
iPhone. I get the play button as I should, but when I try to play
any of my videos I get an error message, and I know these movies
are correctly formatted to play on the iPhone as I can get them to
sync and they play back perfectly, just when I try to get them from
the web site, that they break.
I am currently using Brendan Dawes Quicktime 4.1 COntroller
version 1.0.1 to embed my Quicktime movies. Do I need to add an
extra tag to get them to work on my iPhone?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is the code I am
using to embed my movie in Dreamweaver.
quote:
<embed src="reel/03-28-07_16-9.m4v" width="480"
height="336" loop="False" autoplay="true" controller="true"
playeveryframe="false" enablejavascript="true" bgcolor="undefined"
kioskmode="false" targetcache="false" name="Jonah Lee Walker Reel
iPhone Version" pluginspage="

scale="ASPECT" cache="true"></embed>

Yo8u need to build a refernce movie that chooses the
correcttly formatted file based on the bandwitdh to the
browser...see the ADC at the apple site. They have some informative
videos about this...

"The document “4-20130701090400-7.mp4” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands.You may need to install additional software to open this type of file."

Download and install VLC Player. It plays more formats and is free and highly regarded.

How do get a QuickTime movie to play?

I have a QuickTime movie on one of my web pages. It is located here: http://www.bagsnaggers.com/ourhistory.html
It seems to play fine on Macs, which I use and where I created it, but I have been looking at some Windows computers and it doesn't seem to play. I can get other QuickTime movies to play on them, so I know QuickTime is installed; other movies seem to open automatically and start to play. But on Windows machines, when I click my movie nothing happens. There's a little icon in the corner, but right-clicking, option-clicking, etc. does nothing. I have asked friends with Windows and QuickTime to see if they can play it, but no luck. Can anyone tell me how I should put the movie up on my page so that people who have Windows with QuickTime can play it? Many thanks for help.

If you encode the video for Flash, the most common format used on YouTube, then people will be able to view the video as long as they have Flash Player installed. Without Flash, they can't see YouTube videos, so there's still something that some people may have to install. More and more videos, particularly those intended for playback on iPhones, are using h.264, so you may just want to tell people that they need QuickTime 7 to play your videos. Your choice, of course.

I created an iMovie using pictures from my camera roll, I exported the movie to the camera roll and then deleted all of the pictures. Now I can't get the movie to play. Did deleting the pictures cause my IMovie to disappear? How can I get my movie back?

Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

It should be in the Users/ Shared folder.
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Note the option to check and repair Library Permissions

How do I get a movie to play right away on my iPad while it's downloading

I have this same problem. On the photo tab I used to have it checked for everything to sync. But it gets stuck on syncing the photos and doesnt complete. The events on my Mac stopped syncing to other devices as soon as I got a new ipad air. The events that were on iphoto at that time are the last to show on all other devices. When I am in photo tab i cant even select the events that havent synced because they are showing as a choice. But they are an event in iphoto on the Mac. Frustrated.

Not sure what you are asking.
You have downloaded the movie on your iphone? If so, then transfer it to your computer: File>Transfer Purchases
The movie will not download on your iphone? Click Store>Check for Available Downloads on your computer in itunes.

Does anyone know how to get a movie to play on the apply TV that you rented?

Does anyone out there know how to get a movie to play on the Apple TV that was rented through Apple TV?

It's not going to show under purchases because it's a rental. You have to go into settings - iTunes - check for rental.
Note: a rental will disappear once it's expired (after 24hrs or 48 hrs depending on location)

Can't get quicktime player to play captured FCE movies

we updated our groups computer to a mini with lion. We captuer movies with FCE 4.1 using fire wire or s-vidio. It all works fine (capture save etc) in FCE. The problem is when you want to pre-view them from the desktop. When you double click the cip (which is shown as data type: quicktime movie) quicktime player opens, but will not play the clip. if i transfer the file to an external drive and then put that drive on a computer with snowlepord, quicktime player 10 plays the clip fine. What do i need to do or fix quicktime player in lion? I suppose i can download quicktime 7 pro from an Snowlepord machine, but i would like to get lion's player to work

re-read my post and i must clarify it just a bit. The sound plays on the mini with lion, but no picture. The rest is still true. Again if anyone can help i would appreciate it.

How can I get a Quicktime movie to play over a background slideshow?

I created a slideshow in PowerPoint 2003 a few years ago and would like to update it using Keynote '09. PowerPoint had a "play once" and a "Play in foreground" option that let the movie play in the same spot continuously until the last of the 21 slides are displayed. The slides were timed with background graphics and lyrics that matched the song being sung in the Quicktime movie.
It's a song my daughter wrote and performed and it's something I think could be vastly improved using Keynote's amazing transitions, etc.
When I tried simply importing the presentation from PowerPoint, the video will start to play but when the second slide is displayed, the video is no longer visible. I tried to set Keynote to play it on all slides, but that just restarts the audio to a "row row your boat" round kind of thing. The video doesn't play on the remaining slides.
Is there a way to make this happen?
Thanks!

That's a shame. It takes some tweaking, but PowerPoint can do this. I know it's not something that is needed all the time, but it's something I've needed on a few occasions. I wonder how well the timing would work out if I broke the video up into sub clips and simply assigned a clip to each slide? It's a lot more work and I suspect I'll pick up some clips and pops during the slide changes.
Keynote is still far better at what it does than PowerPoint, but do I ever wish it could do this so I could really show it off to people.
Thanks for the reply!

.mov will play on iPhone but not on computer

Hello,
I have had this problem intermittently but it has me a little confused. Here is what's going on.
i have recorded several .mov files on my iPhone 5 and I can play each and every one of them from the phone without issues. Now, when i plug the phone into my MacBook, a few of the movies will not play with ANY media player. For example, if I try to open the movie with Quicktime or any other player, like VLC, it is not recognized. It is as if the file is damaged.
Why can my phone play the movie but it appears damaged when plug into my Macbook and/or copied to my machine?
Thanks!

Hi E30,
I think you should have updated media players as you are trying to play the clips recorded from iphone 5.
So, you should check your quick time player version & vlc too.
Here is the link where you can check your OS X version & download then install the right version of quick time player:
http://support.apple.com/downloads/#quicktime
You can also update your vlc player version if needed:

Hope it would help please let me know if it doesn't.
