H.264 home movie works in FireFox(kind of) not Safari

I've created a website in iWeb which includes a h.264 movie. The movie loads and runs on Firefox as a file(from the desk top) but not at my website. In Safari the movie will not open as a file or at the website. After it tries to load the movie a "?" mark appears. I've tried it on an early MacBook Pro and a new iMac.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
BobM

I think you need QuickTimePro to do this: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/technologies/h264/
But, post in the QuickTime forums also: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=122

  • How to make this work with Firefox, I like not to use microsoft products! HELP!

    Downloading for Realplayer, after watching the full movie, I click download and it has to reread the movie from the internet.

  • I downloaded some home movies onto my IMac but could not find a way to burn them to a DVD.  Does Apple have software to do this or do I need to purchase one.  If so, what is recommended.

    I downloaded some home movies onto my IMac but could not find a way to burn them to a DVD.  Does Apple have software to do this or do I need to purchase one.  If so, what is recommended.

    but could not find a way to burn them to a DVD.
    Do you want to create a video DVD that will plan on a TV set via a DVD player or just burn the video files to a data DVD disk for storage?
    If the former the read the following:
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailier like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Softwareor eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    However, there are video DVD authoring apps that are available at the App Store that will create a video DVD disk.  They won't be as extensive as iDVD but can create a simple video DVD.
    iDVD 7.1.2 is compatible with iDVD but we don't if it will be with the next system generation.

  • I have yahoo music player on home page worked with firefox 3, chrome, ix, doesn't with firefox 4 why not

    yahoo is home page. yahoo music worked with firefox till I upgraded to firefox 4. Works with ie and just tried chrome. Screen comes up, video doesn't play, just grey in video screen. Norton security isn't blocking. Would rather use firefox, If firefox 4 won't work, how do I install previous version. Thanks Vernon.

    Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
    If it fails regardless, you can try changing the user agent like this:
    #In the location bar at the top, type: '''about:config''' and hit Enter.
    #In the filter at the top, copy/paste the following: '''general.useragent.override'''. This will display a blank page.
    #Right click anywhere in the blank area and choose "New" and then "String". In the dialog box which appears, copy/paste '''general.useragent.override''' again and click OK. The dialog box will remain on screen, but you'll see that name appear above where it previously said "Enter Preference Name".
    #Next, copy/paste the following: '''Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0'''
    #Click OK and then go to File | Exit. Restart Firefox again and see if it works.
    #I've uploaded a screenshot for you to illustrate the steps above.
    Hopefully, your uni's webmaster will update their site to work with Firefox 4.0 soon.

  • QT Pro Export for Web--poster doesn't work in Firefox or IE, only Safari

    Hi QuickTime gurus (within Apple and in the 'real world
    I had thought that when you Export for Web in QuickTime Player Pro, the 'poster' movie would display in all browsers, on Mac and Windows.
    Unfortunately, the poster does NOT work in Firefox (neither Mac nor Windows) nor in IE. It only works in Safari.
    See this example - http://www.wellesley.edu/~kenny/a.html
    Am I doing something wrong, or is there something wrong with the JavaScript such that it doesn't work in all browsers, or....?
    Thanks...k

    Ok here try this:
    http://setfreedenver.org/a/readme.html
    And here's the zip file for the above.
    http://setfreedenver.org/a.zip
    You should have four files in the folder that makes everything for the video in the html:
    video.m4v This is the actual video that plays.
    video.mov This is the referance video that points to video.m4v
    poster.jpg This is the poster frame.
    html.html This is the html for the above video to play in.
    Move one of the above to somewhere else and it will break the video playing in the html.
    Sidebar:
    I couldn't get this to work on my server. I had to go to my server control panel (somewhere out there in Texas) and make a MIME Type setting for the .m4v, so the video could play. Not all servers are setup to play different kinds of videos, documents or images. So, if you ever run across something that plays locally on your computer and not on your sever and your at your wits end.. Contact you server administrator and have them check the MINE setting on the server.

  • Flash Movie works in Firefox, buggy in IE7

    I have a website at
    www.cerebellumsoftware.com
    . My SWF was made in Flash 8. I have actionscript 1.0 and Flash 8
    publish settings. My site works flawlessly in Firefox and other
    browsers, but all users who visit the site in Internet Explorer 7
    report bugs. See for yourself! What's the problem and how do I fix
    it? I need this site to be available for all browsers as we will be
    losing business! Please help - Thank you

    What, in particular, are you talking about. I did not see a
    problem in IE7.

  • No network,???? wait firefox works!!! y not safari?

    Iam having issues here, all of a sudden safari wont connect to the internet, i cannot access the itunes store and software updates can connect to the server says no internet connection, but iam using firefox right now to type this up, so ***..internet works just fine, all other apps like skype, transmission limewire all work just fine, its just the mac specific software that cannot connect..any one have any ideas , ive tried doing a permissions repair but no luck on that. iam new to mac but this seems funky to me...

    A lot of people (myself included) are having internet and network issues, but I'm not sure if you have the same kind of problem.
    In the meantime, just make sure your software is updated (MANY will disagree as software updates apparently caused their problems), and maybe trying configuring your router with WEP instead of WAP.
    You're sure to get better suggestions than this, so hold on..
    It is interesting that Firefox still works - I'll have to test that myself..

  • Why would a rented movie work on the ground but not in the air?

    This is the craziest thing.  I rented a movie from my MacBook Pro and then transferred it to my iPad 2 for a flight.  However once I got on the plane each time I tried to open it I received a message that the movie could not be opened.  OK.  I figured I made a mistake in the transfer.  Once I got home I tried to open the movie again (in Airplane mode, just to be sure) and it loaded right up.  I didn't press play since I was leaving on another flight in two days.  Got on the flight and had the exact same problem.  Once I landed I tried it again and it loaded right up, but I didn't hit play because I have another flight on Friday.  What are the odds it will occur three times in a row?  I have 20 days left on the rental and about six more flights.  This could be fun.
    To lend a little irony to the situation the movie is "Up In The Air".  Anyone have any clue what the heck is going on?  The only variable among the two instances is that in the air I had headphones plugged in, but on the ground I didn't.

    Hi Dominique:
    First-if your mac can control the camera but not see the video,
    *Open Garageband
    *Play a note or two
    *Close Garageband
    *Open iMovie
    The camera will work now-REALLY!!
    If not, look here:

  • Problems with Home Sharing - works with some users but not all

    Hi all,
    On our Mac we have 3 different user accounts. Among the three, home sharing seems to work for two of them, but not three. For example, if I'm logged into User A's account, I'm able to access the library for users B & C. However, B & C are able to see user A's library, but items do not play or transfer. B & C can use each other's shared libraries without a problem.
    Previously, all three users could use the other's libraries. I've done the obvious: restarted the computer, made sure sharing was turned on on all 3 accounts and synced the Apple ID and password on all three iTunes so that they're runing on the same Apple ID account.
    The error I get when trying to transfer songs from A to either B or C is: "There was a problem downloading "[song name]". The URL "" could not be found on the server."
    We're using iTunes 9.0.2.
    Thanks all in advance

  • Home sharing works on primary wifi but not via Access Point

    I have two wifi routers set up at either ends of the house.  The primary router (Netgear DGN2000) is connected to an Access Point (Edimax EW-7416APN) via a D-link Powerline ethernet connection.  Both are configured with identical SSID names/passwords meaning I get seamless switching between the units when walking from one end of the house to the other.  Internet connectivity works fine when connected to either unit on laptop, phone and ipad.
    The only issue I am having is with itunes Home Sharing.  My main PC is connected to the primary router via a further D-link Powerline ethernet connection.  When I am within the wifi signal of the primary router, the Home Sharing library from the Main PC shows on my ipad2 and I can access all music no problem.  However, if I walk to the other end of the house whilst playing a track then as soon as the wifi connection switches to the AP then the track will stop.  When I search for libraries then the Home Sharing library doesn't show.
    The Access Point is set to be in AP mode. The latest version of itunes is installed.  The PC is running Windows XP
    Any pointers anyone can give with this issue would be very welcomed as our main entertaining room is in the range of the AP wifi.

    Do the old "forget this network" while on your home wifi, then reconnect to it.    If that doesn't fix it, it's prob a router/internet issue at your home.    Would need some more info to help futher troubleshoot.

  • Java is not now working with firefox. says its not installed and i have done it 3 times

    i can not play online euchre ,any more since i updated my java.no matter how many times i reinstall it , it says i need it. please help

    *Firefox 12 (and all previous) is a 32-bit browser and requires the 32-bit version of Java. 32-bit browsers will run on 64-bit operating systems as you have experienced.
    *If you have both 32-bit and 64-bit browsers installed on your system, you will need to install both 32-bit and 64-bit Java.

  • Object based navigation in portal works in firefox/chrome but not in explorer

    Hello,
    Im running a portal 7.3 with ECC6 EHP7 as backend.
    im attemting to trigger an object based navigation from the mss application.
    the object based navigation is triggered in firefox but in in explorer
    ive attempted to HTTPTrace , it seems that com.sap.portal.navigation.objbase.objbasednavigation is not triggered in internet explorer, only the POST method beforehand.
    im guessing it is due to some network policy but they currently out of clues on how to help me.
    the popup blocked is disabled, and the SAP portal and ecc system are on the same domain and both are using fully qualified domain names.
    is there anything else i could do? Ive tried going through the wiki and error handling notes about OBN but to no avail.
    Many thanks,
    Eli

    I have had several people test and they all claim the Web Site works perfectly. Guess my question is what is unique about my computer? What setting or parameter do I have set that is making my computer act differently when I use Firefox 7.01 as opposed to 5.0 or 3.26? I have set up a test site that people can look at.
    Www.wallack-family-tree-test.com
    user name (all lower case) viewtree
    Password (all lower case haleydog
    The only valid link is Wallack/Pisik/Breiman
    In either one of the Contents Sections click on Surnames
    Next click on Rose
    When the next page is displayed Rose should be on the top of the page and http://wallack-family-tree-test.com/iWeb/Welcome_files/DR_IDX/IDX001.HTM#ROSE should be in the URL field.
    If you see this then things are working properly. On my computer, I see the correct data in the URL field but the Page that is loaded HAS NOT automatically scrolled down to ROSE. Rather, it is at the TOP of the page and I either have to scroll down to Rose or I can bring the mouse cursor up to the URL field and hit enter. My question - Why is my system NOT scrolling down?

  • FCP Quicktime Movies works well in iDVD, but not in DVDSP

    Hello,
    I work in a film school with several iMac & PowerMac editing suites running Final Cut Studio 2.
    Every computer is set up exactly the same way, yet we are having odd problems with DVDSP on one of the PowerMacs.
    From FCP6, we export self contained quicktime movies, that we then Compress, and then import into DVDSP. This system works well on all of our new iMacs, but on the 3 year old PowerMac, the resultant DVDs that it burns do NOT playback on any DVD Players at all.
    Yet strangely, when I take the same QT Movie into iDVD on that computer, it burns a perfectly good DVD.
    I have even tried bringing the QT Movie files and Compressor files from the Power Mac and transfer them onto an iMac and have been able to burn them fine that way as well. This is occurring with all the FCP projects on this computer.
    Any help would be much appreciated,
    Sincerely,
    Marc Griffin

    It could be a few things, but it may be that the drive itself is dirty or going. It sounds strange but there were people on the board who ran into issues where they could burn the DVD but not play it back on the same drive. Could be something became corrupted. Also people have noticed some strange things happening if an install of Studio 2 was done over a prior installation - it seemed to be most reliable by doing a fresh OS install then installing 2. Also does the computer have all the updates to the software? Are all the computers running the same OS? Have you deleted prefs and repaired permissions?
    Also check your settings on the PowerMac, are you doing a proper build/burn? Did you set a first play? Are you using the same type of media?
