How to download/play movies on the web that 'require" Internet Explorer, et

OK, I locate a movie for playing or downloading on the web. I click on it, it comes back and says:
"This product requires Microsoft© Internet Explorer 6, Microsoft© Media Player 10, and Macromedia Flash 7."
Let's get real, gang. Do I download these things (claimed for free, but huge & slow to get), or do I tell something on my nice nifty OSX 10.4.3 to do it? Say, iMovie, or Preview?

Hi Jay,
hard to tell from remote....
MS IE is just another web browser, don't know, why Safari (or Firefox, mozilla, younameit) should browse that specific file....
MS mediaplayer - that is another cup of tea... my guess: the files you want to watch are in .wmv format, which is a) proprietary b) you need the wmv player OR try the plug-ins from www.flip4mac.com ( I suppose, they have a free "play only" plug...?? search for your own)
MM Flash 7 - no substitute for that, what makes me wonder, with your 10.4.3 system/Safari Flash contents should be shown "automatically".../mostly used for "effects" on websites as drop down menus etc....
summary:
that website is badly programmed, obviously this website tests your combo and doesn't accept other things then MS products..
besides: iM ist not a player!! it's an edit app! for playback any media content, Quicktime Player is meant for... Preview is for stills....
try clicking on the file you want WHILE pressing the ctrl-key on your keyboard, the context menu should show you some download options; when file is on your hd, try to open file with QTplayer.......

HT1860 how do you download a movie on the computer that is already in your apple tv

how do you download a movie on the computer (itunes) that is already on your apple tv

Silver AppleTV1 should be configured for syncing to iTunes, then right click on the AppleTV device in the sidebar and choose Transfer Purchases.
If it's a black AppleTV go to iTunes Store Movies section, and choose Purchased from the Quicklinks on the right - here you can download to iTunes from the internet (the AppleTV does not store the movie).

How to download a file from the web

Say, a PDF.

Hi!
Your question is marked as a Firefox OS question which is Mozilla's own mobile operating system. Thanks for contacting Mozilla Support!
It seems that PDFs cannot be downloaded from the web at this moment, however there are apps from the marketplace you can download to open already downloaded PDFs available on your microSD card.

How can I put quicklinks into the toolbar like in Internet Explorer

In Internet Explorer you can Add Favorites to the toolbar - how can I do this in Firefox?

Firefox has a bar for Bookmarks (equivalent of Favorites). To display the bar, you can right-click a blank area to the right of the tabs and turn on the Bookmarks Toolbar. This also is available from the following menus:
orange Firefox button > Options > Bookmarks Toolbar ''or'' 
classic View menu > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar
Does that do what you need?

How to download an applet from the web sites?

There are few applets I saw online that I would like to download for my project. But I don't know is it to be downloaded. Is it by copying the HTML code & embeded into the HTML coding? Or can I just view it with normal applet viewer? Thanks! God Bless!

Try to trick the page (take care at the copyright)
Consider the address is www.address.com/dir1/pag1.html
Check the source of the page and check the link to the applet.
Consider the link:
<applet code=dir2/appletName.class ....
Then enter into the browser: www.address.com/dir1/dir2/appletName.class and you will download the applet.
The html file you can download using right-click - view source
Good luck

If you transfer any iTunes content to the iPhone from an iTunes library on another computer, all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first with a warning message provided indicating this beforehand.
Authorize the different computer with your Apple ID with iTunes. With your iPhone connected and without syncing, right click on the iPhone under Devices in the iTunes source list and at the menu window that appears, select Transfer Purchases. This will transfer all apps on your iPhone to the iTunes library.

My wifi works fine but all the apps that require Internet don't load

i can get on the AppStore and safari but I can't get on YouTube Facebook multiplayer games ect.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks successfully?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Web Dynpro in Internet Explorer vs Firefox

Hi Experts,
We created a Web Dynpro with an application and views as per usual.
Everything looks fine in Firefox (2.0), but when running the Web Dynpro through Internet Explorer 6.0 there are a lot GUI bugs (elements not being aligned, the right length, etc.)
Is there any way to fix this, we didn't do anything 'strange' in our layouts?
Thanks,
JP

Hi All,
Thanks for the answers.
Armin - I'm also used to Web Dynpro apps looking better in IE than in Firefox, so the problems with our current app came as quite a suprise. How can I check if the style sheets are being loaded correctly? We tested the application inside a Portal role and standalone through the test function, and the alignment is wrong in both.
Amol - I understand that certain things look different in different browsers, but I'm not used to such major inconsistencies. I'm also not sure how to adapt the GUI layout to work correctly in IE, as it seems that the changes I make don't do much.
For example, I created two buttons next to each other in a TransparentContainer with MatrixLayout and they displayed fine in IE. But when I changed the styles of the two buttons to "previous" and "next" respectively, the one displayed much lower than the other (nearly half-way). Also, I created a DropDownBox next to a label in MatrixLayout, and no matter what value I set the width to, the DropDownBox is only a few pixels wide in IE (but perfect in FireFox). Strangely enough, after selecting a value from the DropDownBox (and waiting for the subsequent postback, as the DropDownBox is connected to an action), the DropDownBox resizes to the correct width in IE.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Putting movies on the web for download - help and advice needed

Hello everybody,
I'm not sure whether this is the right place for this question, but here's hoping...
I've produced an hour long DVD on the history of my car club. I have produced the DVD using iMovie and iDVD, and it's fine.
We will be having a number of these DVDs produced, but we also want to offer the movie as a download on our website. Of course this needs to be compressed, but what I want to be able to do is offer the user a file that will burn them a DVD with chapter markers etc, just like the DVD I have, in one operation - a straightforward duplicate. I also want to be able to let them download a label and jewel case insert and offer a complete package.
Is an easy duplicate like this possible, and what sort of file size would the compressed item be? As the DVD is close to capacity, I assume the original will be around 4.7 Gb. There are also some jpegs on the DVD as extras.
Certainly, it would be desirable for the user to play it on their computer, but the main aim is to get a disc TV ready (in the PAL format).
I know you can download movies from the web, and I've downloaded trailers onto my iPod and played them back on a 32" TV and they're excellent. What I don't know is what software will do this. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Steve,
what I want to be able to do is offer the user a file that will burn them a DVD with chapter markers etc, just like the DVD I have, in one operation - a straightforward duplicate.
I suppose you could put up a 4 something gigabyte DVD disk image up somewhere on the web, but I wouldn't want to try and download it! Do you have a site available with this kind of storage and download bandwidth?
Normally, the things I've seen on the web are reduced in image size to something like 320x240 - this reduces the file size to 1/4 the full size file.
For Apple users, H.264 gives a pretty compact file with decent quality, but I'm not sure many PC users would be able to use it. In any event, people couldn't make a DVD with chapters without extra work.
You could get QuickTime Pro and try converting the movie (or a part of it anyway) to H.264 (or 'regular' mpg-4) see how it looks.

HT1657 I tried downloading a movie, at the very end it said there was a problem. Now it's not on my laptop but if I go to download it again it asks me if I want to rent again? How do I get a credit?

I tried downloading a movie, at the very end it said there was a problem. No explanation, now it's not in my itunes library and when I try to download again it tells me I have already rented this movie do I want to rent again? I don't want to pay for it a second time, how do I receive a credit?

If it's not in the Movies part of your library, then does the Store > Check For Available Downloads menu option download it ? If not then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

When i download a file from the web i get "Anti-Virus Program not found " message. This has been happening since I change anti-virus programs for CA etrust to Sophos. How do I get Firefox to recognise my new Anti-virus program?

every time i download a file from the web (ie. a PDF file) i get "Anti-Virus Program not found " message. This has been happening since I changed anti-virus programs for CA etrust to Sophos. How do I get Firefox to recognise my new Anti-virus program?

That is a very good warning provided by the Download Statusbar extension. Something like that should been built into Firefox. I filed this Bug report a couple of years ago, about the lack of a warning like that. 
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480855 
I have looked everywhere that I can think of to find a list of '''IOfficeAntiVirus providers''' ''(as mentioned in the Bug report)'' that will work with Firefox, so I can't answer that for you.
You might want to ask the developer of the Download Statusbar extension about it. He might know which AV programs are compatible with the Windows API that Firefox uses for the download scan.
