How to play wmv file format in Mac

Hi, I want to know how to play a wmv format in Mac.
I have just download media player for mac. When I run the
download file. It always shows me a file missing. Can
you help me how to download the program and the procedure?
Thanks.
mac book Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I might add, this will only open non-encrypted video files. If you need to access encrypted files you'll need to install Windows on your Mac with one of the options listed for Intel Macs on my FAQ:

How to play .wmv file with a MSS1 stream encoded?

I found a bunch of old tutorials on my HD and tried to play them. QT gave me an error message about not having a codec. VLC also couldn't play them. I was able to open the files in QT and do a 'get info'. That's where I found the MSS1 info. Anyone have any ideas about this one?
Thanks,
Chris

Interesting, but any idea how to play them w/in QT?
Believe it would take a 5-8 year old player (WMV or third-party) to support the WMV 7 Screen format. My WMV experience doesn't go back that far so I am not even sure it was ever supported on the Mac. Believe Flip4Mac assumed support of WMV four years after the codec was initially released and it doesn't list MSS1 as being supported at this time. Would probably be easier to see if any old Windows users might have a compatible application and convert the files on the Windows machine.

How to make .wmv files play in QuickTime Player 7 rather than 10

I have just about had it with QuickTime Player 10 in the Applications folder
and would rather use QuickTime Player 7 in the Utilities folder to play .wmv files.
When I double click on a .wmv file, it opens in QuickTime Player 10 with the
lame floating thing that blocks the view. Where and how can set 10.6.2 to use
QuickTime Player 7 rather than QuickTime Player 10?
The floating thing is really annoying

QuickTime X is very new software and only Snow Leopard users have it
A blurb on the 22-Jan-2010 issue of iClarified
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=7303
indicates a soon to be released 10.6.3 update will contain some QuickTime X
enhancements. I hope the enhancement fixes the floating navigation bar that
caused me to revert to QuickTime 7.

How to converting WMV files?

How to converting WMV files from PC to iPod playable files? thanks for all your help

I just found this tip on allexperts.com...
I'm on a windows box at work, so I cant verify the accuracy.
I have one at home...name escapes me right now...icon is a blue square with 5 black dots (like on a die). It converts audio formats, video formats, extracts audio from video, and will batch process.
Maybe someone will recognize the desciption and be able to name it.

heres one on apples site:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/audio/switchfileformatconverterformac.html
=======
Tunes will convert wma to mp3 (or acc) format. Here are the instructions:
To convert a song's file format:
Choose iTunes > Preferences, then click the Advanced button at the top of the window and click Importing.
From the Import Using pop-up menu, choose the encoding format that you want to convert the song to, then click OK to save the settings.
Select one or more songs in your library, then choose Advanced > Convert Selection to MP3, Convert Selection to AAC, Convert Selection to Apple Lossless, Convert Selection to AIFF, or Convert Selection to WAV. (The menu item changes to show what's selected in your Importing preferences.)
To convert all the songs in a folder or on a disk, hold down the Option key and choose Advanced > "Convert Selection to," then choose the folder or disk containing the songs you want to convert. All the songs in the folder or on the disk will be converted except songs you purchased from the iTunes Store. (Purchased songs are encoded using a protected AAC format that prevents them from being converted.)

HT3775 can't play wmv file on quicktime?

I can't play .wmv files on quicktime. I installed both QuickTime MPEG2 and Flip4Mac WMV hoping that this would solve the problem but it did not. When trying to play any audio .wmv file I get an error box stating "the document (filename).wmv could not be opened. The movie is not in a format the QuickTime Player understands. You may need to install additional software to open this type of file". Anyone know what I might need here?

Hmm, Perian should provide flv playback in Quicktime. Maybe you need to update Perian? I used to always use Perian but since upgrading to Lion I have not installed it and now rely on VLC for non-apple standard media playback. Deluxe can handle the flv-format.It will convert flv to mov. Hope it helps

Playing .wmv files on orig iPad

How can i play .wmv files on my orig iPad? Looks like video files with .wmv file types change to QuickTime, but, will not then open and play. Is there a work-around for this? Thanks.

.WMV's are not natively supported, as they are a proprietary Microsoft format.
You will need to download a video player that supports them.
I like avplayerhd, but you can search the app store.

Cannot play wmv files on BB 8520

When I try and play wmv files on my blackberry curve 8520 it plays the sound but not the video clip. I have removed the battery and replaced it but still does not work. It says that wmv is supported. Anyone got any ideas. Thanks in advance

Hi marcrees and welcome to the forums!
How are you transferring the media files between the PC and the Blackberry?
Are you using Media Manager, MediaSync, or my personal favorite "drag and drop" via MyComputer.
Do you have a media card or are you using device memory?
Also please tell us what version of device OS your are currently running on your 8520.
Click options>scroll to About> it's listed in format: v.X.X.XXX.
You can also open a new message in the message queue and in the body of the message
type myver and press enter. You will get the model number and the device OS level.
Thanks,

Play WMV Files in Quicktime

Hi,
I run Win XP & Surfari. I am trying to get away from running Media Player. I wish to play WMV files in Quicktime players. I do not wish to use a 3rd party player I just want to be able to open the WMV & it runs in Quicktime. I do not not want to go through the hassle of using another program to convert the file I just want to be able to run it in Quicktime. Is this now possible? I have read other posts in the Forum and nobody has answered this question directly they just say convert..... & that is a stupid answer & not satisfactory
Many thanks in advance
PS

Again, QuickTime for windows can't play .wmv or.wma, in this link look to the column on the right, Supported File Formats.

Unable to Play wmv files om Macbook pro

How can I play wmv files on my MacBook pro? I always could play them but recently unable to. I get the message that Flip4Mac must be updated. I try to update but it says it is already updated. Also tried updating Quick player and gert the same reply. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm getting error too (Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound). I'm getting this with CS5. This file was previously made in CS4 and never got this error.
Everything (fla and flv too) is on external hard disk.
As this work requires to be exported to mov, I've found out that everything needs to be on the mac (don't know for pc), like on desktop.
So, let me wrap up disadvantages I got with Flash CS5:
- TextField.embedFont makes the font disappear in CS5, so I can't use it, so I can't "play" with text in a comfortable way (in CS4, with embedFont = true, I was able to rotate and stuff). Now I have to make a bitmap out of it. It means 3 lines of code and a new variable, instead of just an easy one.
- I have to rebuild my entire source path structure for AS classes, as my old one (that took me years of effort to be reasonable and used to work just fine in CS4).
- I have to move stuff from my hard drive to the desktop, to make flv be played and to make a mov out of my animation.
CS5 is making my job harder and making me lose a lot of time to find out errors that have no good reason to exist (it was not error. just "place CS5 doesn't like").
