Help!  A "Connect to" popup menu appears when trying to play a video...

Thanks.
A "Connect to" popup menu appears that asks for my username
and password when trying to play video.
I believe this menu began appearing after installing IE 7.0.
Is it therefore a IE 7 issue, or IIS authentication setting, or do
I need to reinstall flash or shockwave? Another question, and very
basic... how do I know if i am using flash or shockwave?
I have googled this and cannot find a similiar case.
Ideas? Thanks.

Well, the answer is going to depend on your network setup. If
you're a home user on a single machine then I'd check your firewall
settings. Or contact your ISP to see if they've implemented any
kind of proxy that requires authentication.
If you're in a network environment then hit your IT guys to
see if they're blocking the FLV file format, or blocking RTMP
streams, or requiring proxy authentication or something like
that.

  • Green screen appearing when trying to play back videos

    Hi everyone.
    I tried to play some of my videos today and for some of my videos (I downloaded from Itunes a few months ago), a green screen appears and then it goes black and all I can hear is audio. Anyone have this problem and found a way to correct this? My only other option would be to repurchase these videos, which is something I don't want to do. Thanks in advance for your help!

  • Apple TV logo appears when trying to play a video

    Hi Guys, wondering if you can provide a bit of guidance.
    I am encoding video using the Elgato Turbo 264 stick using their software (as well as the quicktime component).
    The files encode without a problem, and are in the right format (h.264 codec, right size, right bitrate etc), and they import and play in itunes without a problem. they also sync to the apple tv without a problem.
    when i try to select a file to play on the atv, it attempts to load, then the apple logo appears on the screen for 2 or 3 seconds, then it goes straight back to the root menu (movies/tv/music etc).
    this problem has never occured before i updated the elgato software to the latest version, and 2 video-ts folders I encoded synced and played without a problem.
    anything you know that could solve this issue would be great - i don't want to have to revert back to the old elgato software!

    I have the same problem and it appears to be random.
    I encoded a stream of 8, 45" videos from identical source material using identical settings. 6 of the 8 worked fine, the other 2 exhibit exactly the same behavior (the mysterious apple log appearance). One thing I have noted is that when I switch sources and attempt to play from iTunes, the same thing happens EVEN THOUGH iTunes displays the stills from the first frames in the menu. The other interesting thing is than when the ATV dumps me unceremoniously out to the menu from my iTunes source, it has switched the source back to ATV from iTunes. This happens 100% of the time.
    All the files in question play fine in iTunes - but that is not particularly helpful.

  • Unable to load media error when trying to play a video in Sharepoint 2013

    My team consistently gets an error when trying to play a video in SharePoint 2013. I can upload it, pick a thumbnail and save it.  When anyone else goes to the intranet site and tries to play the video, they get a media failed to load error.
    I have tried mp4 and wmv formats. I at first thought it had to do with the codec used in Camtasia to create the video, so I encoded it in Microsoft Encoder to a wmv and it still fails. All of the videos I upload fail for other users. If someone else uploads
    a video, I get the error and cannot play the video.  If I look at the library in Explorer, the video file is missing but the subdirectories for additional content and thumbnails are present. For the videos I upload and can play but everyone else
    gets the error, I see those subdirectories as well as the video file itself.

    On my Ipad I seem to be having a problem when trying to play YouTube videos embedded on Facebook.
    When I click the links, I get a message saying: "Flash Player upgrade required."
    and under it, it says, "You need to download and install the lastes version of Adobe Flash Player to view this content"
    and also a green button saying "Get Flash Player"
    I get this if using chrome or safari .
      I can go direct to YouTube it just works.

    The Facebook link to the video is accessing an Adobe Flash video.  Unfortunately, no iOS devices can play flash. 

  • Why when trying to play YouTube videos does it tell me I need JavaScript and adobe flash player but phone doesn't support

    Get error message when trying to play YouTube video's say phone don't support adobe flash player but sometimes it plays them

    This is because the html5 player will load the video by default. I have noticed lately that some channels required flash player. Do you have an example video by chance for further investigation?

  • ITunes stops working when trying to play purchased video

    Hey Everyone,
    For some reason whenever I try to play a video or TV program that I purchased from the iTunes store it causes iTunes to shut down and it won't play the video. It does bring up the player for a few seconds then just hangs and a few seconds later it pops up a message that iTunes has stopped working. HELP PLEASE. I'm on 7 64 bit.
    thanks

    many thanks.
    Fault Module Name: QuickTime.qts
    Fault Module Version: 7.66.71.0
    Okay. let's first try uninstalling and reinstalling your QuickTime. We'll also take a few other explicit precautions, just in case. Best to print out a copy of these instructions, because at one stage of proceedings you won't be able to use a web browser.
    Preliminaries
    Download and save a copy of the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file from the Apple Website. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet. get the installer that doesn't mention iTunes.)
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    *Uninstall phase*
    Head into your Uninstall a program control panel and uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we'll remove any leftover program files and folders.
    In Computer, open your C drive.
    Open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
    Right-click on the "QuickTime" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
    Go back into your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
    Open the "Windows" folder.
    Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
    Right-click on the "QuickTime" file (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
    Right-click on the "QuickTimeVR" file (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
    Empty your recycle bin.
    *Reinstall phase*
    Restart the PC. After the PC restarts do not open any applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
    Now start the reinstall by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file you downloaded earlier.
    Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to the internet and/or your network.
    Does the QuickTime reinstall seem to go through smoothly? If so, try launching iTunes again and trying to play one of the affected videos. Do you still get the same iTunes error, or are the files playing properly now?

  • HT4108 not authorized message when trying to play a video on the tv?

    does anyone know what to do I purchased the video from i tunes.  I'm trying to play it throuh the ipad to the tv but it won't connect it says not authorized?

    Were these songs purchased using another account?
    " I opened a new iTunes account and copied the files to the new account.  "
    Do you mean to a new library?
    Account is a user neame and password with which you purchase content.
    A library is your collection of media.

  • Safary crashes when trying to play a video

    I am using OS X Lion on a 2009 iMac 24 inch. Lately Safary crashes the moment I want to play certain videos. For instance, if I pull up the Apple.com webpage before it starts playing the video currently on the page Safary crashes immediately.

    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

  • Using iMovie, the error code -50 keeps appearing when trying to export my video, what does this mean?

    Using imovie, I am trying to export a movie however it keeps flashing error code -50 every time I try.  Doesn anyone know what this error means and how I can correct the problem?

    Hi, one thing I discovered was that this error message was being given whenever I tried to export the project into iTunes as a Large file. When I tried to do the same thing in to iTunes as a Mobile or a Medium file it exported fine.
    I tried a workaround which was to recompile the movie again by capturing the video as one file and the audio as another file and then to import them both in to iMovie and combine them as a new project.
    Once this was done, I successfully exported the new project in to iTunes (using the HD format option!).
    I used Quick Time to create both the screen capture and the audio for the above workaround.
    The result was that the file was still a very good quality movie. Perhaps not as good as if iMovie had worked properly, nevertheless, it removed my frustration.
    Furthermore, given that the Medium format movie exported ok, even that could be used to share on other social networking sites such as YouTube.
    Hope that helps.

  • Help me?! graph card problems when trying to play games on mac in wmvare-windows 7

    I know that you aren't suppose too play games on mac. But I bought a iMac 27"
    Processor  3,5 GHz Intel Core i7
    Minne  16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Grafik  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2048 MB
    and I installed wmvare and windows 7 so I could do gameplays for my YouTube channel on PC games. I didn't boot because I were insecure but anyways. I installed wmvare and windows 7 sucesfully but then when I were going too try too run the game Black Ops 2 in steam it poped up a message that told me
    "DirectX encountered an unrecoverable error. Check the readme for possible solutions." So I sat for hours trying too understand what the problem was, trying to update DirectX with more. Since I already had the latest DirectX that wasent the problem. And finaly I found the sulution. There were some problem with the grapich card so I needed too upgrade the grapich card. Well ofcourse NIVIDIA didn't have any driver for the GTX 775M grapich card. I checked here https://discussions.apple.com/message/24065327#24065327 and used the link that took me to were I could dowload the drivers. When the dowloading were done and I started the system check after a while it stoped and told me that the NVIDIA installation coulden't go on. Becuase this graphics routine could not find any compatible graphics hardware. So what is the sulution? Because I am not going (I have already put so much money on this) pay more for this too work so as ordering new stuff like a driver, another grapich card or anything lika that I dont want to boot my computer but if I must I perhaps will do it just if I dont need to pay for another windows 7. So I want a awnser were I can and how I can dowload the drivers so that I can play games on my mac for exampel; Black Ops 2, Battelfield 3/4, The Forest, Day Z. Would be greatfull for awnsers that have a sulution!!!!

    Okey, so when I was going too boot my computer it works good untill half the way thruh when boot campassistant is going too dowload the latest windows assistant it says "This computer can just do windows 7" then I press next after a few seconds it says "Can't dowload files because the server is busy" (this was just from my memory it may have been somthing else, but it is pretty much what it said). So how do I fix this, the easiest thing too just press a few buttons and choose a ISO image and the it can't even proseed to the pratipation....
