How can I play .avi movies on my mac?With difficulty.
Quicktime pro doesn't do it.Generally speaking, no -- not without third-party components.
If there's some kind of patch or something, please give me the url/link!Try Perian (free). It contains a collection of popular PC codecs which may or may not support the specific files you want. If not, you have to determine what particular codec is required, find out if it is available, and then download/install it. (Not all AVI audio/video file formats have been ported for Mac use.) Even then, if it is a proprietary codec and you want to be able to convert to/from that format, you may have to purchase/register the component.

  • HT3775 I can't play avi movies on my mac. I don't know what to do!

    my friend gave me some regular show seasons, but i can't watch them coz they're avi and they wont let me please help!

    The file is send as audio/mpeg and that usually should be sufficient to make Firefox select a plugin that handles the file.<br />
    Probably a MIME type as application/x-mplayer2 will also work to select a WMP compatible player as most users on Windows won't have QT.
    Does QT work otherwise correctly for you when playing embedded content?

    Do others with a Mac also report that it isn't working?
    Is there only a problem with users on a Mac or with other platforms (Windows/Linux) as well?
    You can also try to ask advice at the mozillaZine Web Development/Standards Evangelism forum if it is your own website (hadn't released before that that could be the case).
    The helpers at that forum are more knowledgeable about web development issues.<br />

  • How can I play .avi files, how can I play .avi files

    how can I play >avi files on Mavericks?

    This did solve my question.  I'm not happy with the actions necessary to get the avi file to play, but it works.  I was delivering a presentation with an embedded avi video file to a workplace audience and all of a sudden the transition from powerpoint is not "seamless" anymore, but it is better than not having the movie presentation.
    Mavericks is not a big improvement for me, and this is not the first cumbersome step I've encountered.  I would not recommend a leam to Mavericks unless there is something you really need.  It's not all Apple's fault, as third party app providers are not keeping their product up -to-date, but we don't have computers for the fancy OS, we have it for the apps.

    How can i play a movie in keynote from more than 600 seconds between other slides in a automatic loop

    The maximum duration available for an automatic presentation in Keynote is 600 seconds.
    The alternatives are to export a QuickTime video, use other presentation applications, a media server player or digital signage application.

    Hi Brennan,
    Only HDMI is going to support audio & video on the single cable. Which MacBook Air do you have? Here's a great article regarding this - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241. Also keep in mind that only the current generation of MacBook Airs support this. The previous generation, also with MiniDisplay Port would support HDMI but you'd need to run a separate line from the headphone port over AUX for audio.
    The first and second generation models, which have micro-DVI, do not support audio. Regarding the RCA cables, Apple offers adapters that allow you to go to VGA and that would probably be your best bet. I do not believe there's a MiniDisplay Port to RCA solution out there, you'd need to do multiple adapters and that's always a questionable performance solution.

    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.

  • TS3772 How can I play my movie? It's asking me to download quicktime and I already did... twice

     

    Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
    Quit iTunes first.
    In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
    If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
    If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
    Can you play the movie without the QuickTime message now?

  • How can i transfer avi movie to iphone

    How can I transfer the .Avi Movie to iphone?

    AVI format can not be recognized by iTunes, so you need to convert the avi to an more mac friendly file like mp4, m4v for adding to your iPhone.
    Click to check the solution: How to transfer .avi movie to mac iphone .mp4
    Use Appgeeker to convert the file into one that can be played on your iphone. It has a lot of presets that you can use to convert it into the exact format that will play on your Apple products.

  • How can I play a movie in iTunes mini player?  (Progress bar button broken?)

    It took forever to figure out how to get iTunes to even OPEN a new window for movie playback, but once I finally found instructions (click the button with movie art to the left of the progress bar to open in new window) they only partially worked.  A new window opens, but movie playback continues in the main window.  The new window shows a freeze frame of the scene displayed at the moment I clicked the progress bar button.  The new window looks just like the mini player, and its control buttons work, but they effect the main window's movie playback not the new window/mini player where I want to watch the movie.
    Is it my progress bar that's broken?  I'm all updated with iTunes version 11.1.5.  Does this version not play well with my OS X 10.6.8?
    Ultimately I just want to be able to play a movie in the mini player while using other applications; surely that's possible.
    [Also, on the "Operating System" dropdown menu below, I just selected OS X 10.6.8 and then the dropdown showed "No operating system selected" and the selection arrows no longer work.  Any ideas what happened?  My MacBook Old feels so janky right now.]

    You need to convert the AVI file to MP4.  Here is just one of the many converters available (via Google) http://www.divx.com/en/software/divx-plus/oca/mp4-converter?gclid=CJnqnpaF37gCFc fJtAod8RUAeg

  • How can I play HD movies on iTunes on my windows 7 desktop?

    My monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster2494 and my video card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti.  I have no issues running webpages, video games, etc. in HD, however I receive an error whenever I attempt to watch a movie on iTunes in HD.  The message reads - To play 'The Movie' in HD, you must have a computer with a built-in display or have it connected to a display that supports HDCP.
    Any ideas on how to correct this?  Do I need iTunes to detect my hardware? (my computer has an on-board graphics card that is not HD compatible, I had upgraded to the 550.

    Hello css49er11,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
