HELP VIDEOS NOT WORKING: CODEC MISSING

Okay up till today afternoon my Mac was working just fine, Safari worked and so did everything else. I installed a new Apple Security Update which broke Safari, I reinstalled Mac OS X Panther (10.3) from scratch, immediately re-updated to 10.3.9 and installed QuickTime 7 then installed Divx 6 and try to play some of my videos in QT that worked before (I was running QT 7 this morning before OS reinstall) and now videos are not working, there is no picture or sound.
I have ran Disk Utility before and after major installations to prevent system errors. Tried reinstalling QuickTime 6.5.2 but that only seems to work when running QT 7.0.0 (version 7.0.4) got installed.
Tried deleting 7.0.4. and installing 7.0 says it cannot install QuickTime because a newer version is already on computer although I deleted it completely. Have tried installing 3ivx for QuickTime, reinstalling Divx 5.2.1, Divx 6 in different orders and still no luck.
Any ideas what can I do? Anyone have a download for Divx 5.2.1? I can always reinstall QT 6.4 (even if I have to do another OS reinstall) then install Divx 5.2.1 and then upgrading to QT 7 after installing Divx and 3ivx.
Most of my videos are in AVI - need Divx or any good video codec to play.
Thanks

Thanks - I had to reinstall Mac OS X just to get QuickTime back. After I installed it I downloaded and reinstalled Divx 5.2.1 component for QuickTime then ran one of my videos just for a sec (have them saved to CD) and it worked.
Earlier I only had Divx 6 component for QT installed (when I mentioned reinstalling QT 7 and then installing Divx (before latest OS reinstall) and Divx 6 did not help any I didn't even have sound. I installed Divx 5.2.1 now and got my sound and video back.
Now I just have to recopy all my media back to my hard drive -- all the videos and music and pictures (to QuickTime, iTunes, and iPhoto). Have bookmarked the url u gave me and will refer to it in future if I need it again.

  • We need to get some help and explanations about iChat video not working.

    I've read so many postings about iChat Video hoping for an answer to my problem, but not only did I not find an answer, no one else has been receiving an answer either.
    I've had multiple problems with my ichat video not working.
    I either get an error saying someone didn't accept which isn't the case, or I get some error-8 or something ridiculous like that.
    Can we get some help from apple support or something?!

    Short answer: No, we can´t...!
    Apple don´t care about us users, unless you pay for an Apple Care Service. Try your best to follow some advices from around this forum. That´s the only help you will get.
    Some people have got their iChat video working again after following some advice. By the way. I´m not one of them... I´ve tried every single tip I read here, but I´m still stuck with text chat only...
    Good luck.

  • IChat Video Not Working since PSP3 bought!!

    Hi guys,
    ichat video not working since I bought and installed a new Playstation 3. I have a BT HUB that connects wirelessly with the imac. I have BT Vision running from the HUB too via ethernet wall boost adapters. I had this problem with video when i installed the BT Vision. And turned out to be something to do with Application Sharing settings on the HUB. I resolved it by correctly sharing AIM TALK with my wireless imac. Now the same problem has arisen since the psp3 was put on. But even with all the things I've tried I am stuck as how to get the video up and running as before. The devices running off the hub include:
    1. imac (wireless via Airport Extreme)
    2. BT Vision via ethernet and wall adaptors
    3. iPod touch via wireless
    4. PSP3 via wireless plug and play
    I have checked all the ip address for these devices and have enabled app sharing for the imac wireless to AIM TALK in BT HUB manager. I have also opened my firewalls; changed the port setting to 443 in ichat preferences; re-set the HUB/Router;
    Is there anything else I can do or check? As I said it worked perfectly before the psp3 went onto the
    network. Should i assign AIM TALK to the imac wireless or to some of the other devices? (though I think I've tried that too!!)
    Help would be much appreciated as this is driving me to insanity, if I wasn't there already!!!!
    Take care, and thanks in advance for your help.

    "speedtouch modem!"
    Yes you do.
    Thomson-Alcetel who make the Speedtouch range make this device for BT.
    The Firmware is Thomson-Alcatels with BT Logo-ing.
    This Ethernet 3 connection is probably internal.
    Have you got System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming set to 1.5Mbps ?
    If not then do and restart iChat to see the new speed.
    In Leopard the Automatic setting is read by iChat as 384K.
    This may be allowing the PS3 to have too much of the bandwidth.
    I or rather my son has a X-Box 360 which can be on-line when I video chat and it works for me, as it does when he uses his PlayStation 3
    If the AIM talk setting uses the same port here as it is listed elsewhere then it has only opened/allowed port 5190.
    This would have appeared to have been coincidental to any iChat use when you changed it.
    Are you not using UPnP in this device ?
    Which firmware is it up to ?
    Anything above 6.2.2.6 should work.
    Anything starting with 6 and containing letters is later.
    In the .telephony section does it mention which port are open ?

  • Skype video not working on Samsung UN55ES6100F

    Hi,
    Video not working on my Samsung Smart TV UN55ES6100F
    Updated Firmware 001034
    Using VG-STC2000 Camera (plugged into both the 1.0amp and 0.5amp USB ports)
    Created test accounts and nothing works.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Also,
    When starting any account, the blue LED on the camera is solid but the video only produces a black screen.
    When selecting contacts, the option to make a video call is allowed but when selected, only audio is transmitted, no video (just black screen).  Nothing is obstructing the camera eye.

  • PSE 10  and Adobe CS6: When running silent install help is not working afterwards

    Hello,
    I'm not sure if this is the correct forum. If not: Please help me find the correct one.
    I have a big issue with Adobe CS6 (and former versions like Photoshop Elements 10): When installing it from DVD running GUI everything is working fine afterwards. If I install e.g. Photoshop Elements 10 using "Silent Installation" help is not working afterwards. It states that it cannot locate the URL. I have not installed AIR and also do not plan to install it.
    I have 'played' a little around with Common Files\Adobe\helpcfg and help directory. Now at least I do not get an error message but still it's not the online help which opens in the browser but the web page that is defined as 'home'.
    The same I see now in Adobe CS6. I have e.g. packaged After Effects and Illustrator and when deploying it I'm not able to open help as well and I fear that this is the same issue.
    Has anyone deeper knowledge about how "helpcfg" is working? Any example files? Any other help appreciated as well.
    Kind regards
    János

    @hannilator Have you checked the exceptions folder contents for instructions on how to push to logged off computers? Here's what I get when I package CS6 (DesignWebPrem) and excude AIR/CHC:
    After you have deployed the package, separately install the products in the exception folder.
    IMPORTANT: Before you install the products in the exception folder, refer to the following Adobe Knowledgebase article for information on installing these products and configuring the settings correctly:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/aamee_exceptions
    NOTE: The installation commands provided below will work when the user is logged in to the client machine where the package is being deployed. For the scenario where the user is not logged in, prefix the following string to the command:
    sudo launchctl bsexec `ps auwwx |grep [l]oginwindow | awk '{ print $2 }'`
    As an example, here is the command to install "Adobe AIR" when the user is not logged in to the client machine (assuming Adobe AIR is part of the package):
    sudo launchctl bsexec `ps auwwx |grep [l]oginwindow | awk '{ print $2 }'` Adobe\ AIR\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer -silent

  • WBS element field in transaction CS71-F4 help is not working in ECC 6.0

    Hii
    In SAP, while working in SAP 4.7, tcode cs71, WBS element is coming via F4 Help. But after upgradation to ECC 6.0 EHP 5, this F4 help is not working. I can enter value manually.but F4 help is not working.
    Please Help.

    Hi,
    You can do it manually too
    1.  Choose function group 'CSDI' via Transaction SE80.
    2.  Choose screen '0260'in the 'Screens' area and switch to change mode
    3.  Choose the 'Element list' tab index.
    4.  In this area, choose the 'Reference' tab index and enter the value
        'PRP' in the 'Search help' column in the line for field
        'RC29N-PSPNR'.
    5.  Save your change and regenerate the screen.
    6.  The correct input help for the WBS element is now available in the
        initial screen of Transaction CS71/72/73.
    I hope F4 helps works for "Existing WBS BOM's" in CS71 after this
    Refer to Note : 714824 as well , it has reverted back the changes done by note : 422265

    Hi,
    This might be due to the JRE version of the browser. We faced such issue and the update of JRE version in the browser helps to get the pop-up of F4 help. Check in the internet broswser Tools -> Internet Option -> Advanced. Check whether the JRE applet is checked or not. it has to be checked. if it is checked and even if you dont get the F4 help, upgrade the JRE version.
    Thanks,

    Hi
    I dont think that a field can be disabled and allows to choose data using f4 simultaneously. you can enable the field and allow the user to select whatever he/she wants.
    Then in any action like on press of save or submit button which the user will trigger after entering the values, get the value entered by the user in that perticular field and fire a query on the table/view, which you have used as selection method of your search help, it help is coming from data element then look for check table in domain. if sy-subrc comes 0 than go ahead else give error that value selected is modified.
    Thanks

  • NYT videos not working in Safari 5

    NYT videos not working in Safari 5

    Work fine for me - they are just normal Flash videos.
    Make sure your Flash Player is up to date.
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • F1 help does not work in transaction SE80

    Hi Experts!
    A strange error occurred in our ECC 6.0 SR3 system (Windows 2003 SE 64 bit based, MaxDB 7.6.03.009). F1 help does not work in transaction SE80. Either nothing is shown when a keyword as SELECT is marked and F1 key is pressed, or a strange popup appears with title u201CABAP Keyword Documentationu201D and root u201CHit List of Index Searchu201D - [screenshot|http://i43.tinypic.com/aox7d.jpg]. No matter what I choose in the tree it always closes, no help is displayed and SAP GUI returns in the main screen in transaction SE80.
    I found this thread [Re: SAP F1 Help and SE80 issue|Re: SAP F1 Help and SE80 issue] but it did not help me. This is my system information:
    SAP PC VERSION INFORMATION: saplogon.exe
    MAIN MODULE INFORMATION:
       saplogon.exe
       SAP Logon за Windows
       Final Release 710
       7100.3.12.1042
       1046700
    SYSTEM INFORMATION:
       Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP 5.1 (2600) Service Pack 3
       Internet Explorer v. 7.0
    Application help works perfect - I checked the configuration in transaction SR13 too.
    Any ideas will be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Hi Presu,
    As it is seen from my previous post SAP GUI version is 7.10 SP 12. I downloaded the last SP 13 and installed it. Now SAP GUI information looks like this:
    SAP PC VERSION INFORMATION: saplogon.exe
    MAIN MODULE INFORMATION:
       saplogon.exe
       SAP Logon за Windows
       Final Release 710
       7100.3.13.1045
       1063164
    The problem is not resolved.
    This happens from different workstations with different versions and sub-versions of SAP GUI, so the problem is not caused from the GUI I think. It happens using different logon users and in all SAP system cliens.
    Any other suggestions?
    Best regards,
    Pit
