how can i watch .avi on my os x Mavericks?

VLC is good.  You can also try MplayerX (https://www.macupdate.com/download/18580/MPlayer-dev-latest.dmg).
If you want to use Quicktime, then you can try the perian plugin
Get Perian, and install it. - http://perian.org
If you like to use Quicktime (superior) than that's the way to go.
VideoLan (VLC player) is a great secondary choice, seems to run most things.

  • How can I watch AVI files over a network?

    It was not without hesitation on my part that I started a new thread—I was convinced there was a large body of information available on this subject. That I was correct in this (for there seem a plethora of articles and links) was unfortunately no help to me.
    After suffering the humiliation of my PC-championing roommate show me how to connect to another computer so I could access some AVI files, I ran into the problem of not having my Quicktime player compatible with them. I attempted a number of downloads, including a DivX player, the VLC player, as well as adding XVIDD and on2vp3 components to my Quicktime library folder.
    Currently, none of these have worked. Anyone have a clue about what I need to do?

    Phillip, AVI Files are infact for Windows Video and for you to be able to acsess them and play them you will have to download a Windows Media Player and you will probably have to choose it when you want to view them. Quicktime is your default player on your Mac you will have to change that when you download the windows player, I would leave it as Quicktime and choose the windows when you want to view them.

    Really? I need to check that out!
    You should certainly be able to add content by reference to itunes from such a disk (even before the update) - so long as itunes knows the location of the file (set Preferences not to copy to local library when adding the media) it will stream it to AppleTV if the disk is available.
    I hope you're right, but I'd be surprised if current Extremes can be upgarded to provide a full Home Sharing service - marvellous if they can but I'd be surprised as i've long said we need an Apple media server either based on TC or AE to do this kind of thing.

    I wonder the Format Tables macros on my site could be adapted?

    If not, I have used Macro Express to format tables in Rh. No reason it could not be used in Word.

    I have purchased and downloaded some TV Shows through iTunes. How can I watch them on my iPad without an internet connection?

    Demo the same thing happened to me.  I purchased a seasons pass for Sons of Anarchy Season 6 and I've got the eposides on my IPad but Airplay won't allow me to watch the episodes without an internet connection or WiFi.  Is there anything else I can do so that I can watch these eposides without an internet or wifi connections?

    How can I watch a DVD playing on my iMac on my TV using Apple TV?

    You can't. The only way is to transfer the movie to your computer and import to iTunes (making sure it is compatible) and either use home-sharing or airplay the movie off an ios device.

  • How can I watch a video clip in my iPad 3?

    I just got an attached video clip from my brother, sent to my hotmail. When I open the clip, it just shows an overcrossed play bottom! How can I watch a video clip in hotmail, using an iPad? Do I need to download an app or what? Please!?

    Well on a Mac you can install
    Flash
    Silverlight
    Perian
    VLC
    Flip4Mac
    DivX
    and many other codecs/tools to watch anything.
    Guess the iOS isn't really all that it's cracked up to be, ignoring the wider world out there.
    Your only choice to complain to Apple about closed devices they make, but of course they know this already and using the iPad as a cheap "netbook" halo effect device so you get to upgrade to a Mac, just like they do with iPhones and iPods.
    In the meanwhile they are slowly closing the door on OS X, a little at a time so it's not noticeable.
    Pretty soon the excuse will be "sorry I can't play your video you sent me mom, I've got a Mac"

  • How can I watch the Super Bowl on my Apple TV

    How can I watch the Super Bowl on my Apple TV?

    Last year, I had the Super Bowl streaming online to my macbook pro, and via AirPlay I streamed it to my Apple TV. I plan to do the same thing this year, except using my new iMac. Just need to find a website that is going to be streaming it. Foxsportsgo.com has said they will be streaming and will not required verification of an eligable paid cable/satalite subscription to watch the Super Bowl only. So crossing fingers that it works cause I don't get regular antenna signal where I live, nor do I pay for cable/satalite services.

    A movie rented on an iPhone can only be viewed on an iPhone. If you want to view on TV you need to rent directly on ATV or via computer (and stream using home-sharing)

    Regards.
    If there are specific golf 'channels' out there or particular events, I would go to their websites and look to see if there are any iPad apps - they may well be subscription based though.
    Also if there are apps, check out reviews in iTunes or the developer's sites as many apps with copyrighted video will only send audio to AppleTV so best to find out before subscribing to anything.
    How do you watch these channels/events now?
