HT1349 my iMovie recording system won't play the recording

im trying to play my recordings from imovie and its not playing! i have a project due in a couple days and i need help. i dont understand all the technological words so please describe it to me in a 13 year old language.

I just discovered this problem with both IE8 and Firefox. Adobe is aware of the issue:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/872999?tstart=0
I followed the instructions in the above link and at least got videos working again in IE8, it says this also works for IE9 but I didn't try that out.
To make youtube videos work in firefox I put an s in http: to make the URL read https: and that allows the videos to play.
The other working fix I found is to clear the offline storage cache by going to Tools > Options > Advanced >Network > Clear Now button. After clearing the cache and restarting firefox youtube now works.

  • I recently purchased QuickTime 7 Pro to convert avi files to mov files for editing on Imovie. However, QuickTime won't play the files. How can I get them to play and how can I convert them to mov files?

    Both the AVI and the MOV file extensions refer to the file container and not the compressed data the file contains. Both are generic file containers in that each may contain any valid combination of audio and/or video data that is compatible with the codec component configuration of the system on which the file was created. On the other hand, whether a file is playback compatible, conversion compatible, and/or edit compatible depends on the data actually contained in the file container. So, you are basically dealing with two separate issues here—the container and what is inside it.
    Basically, if you want to make your files ediit compatible with iMovie, you must change your file container to one that is acceptable to iMovie and convert the data to edit compatible audio and/or video compression formats as may be necessary. The best approach is to determine what codecs were actually used to create the original AVI files and add them to your system if possible. In most cases a codec package like Perian can be added to your system's codec component configuration to may the AVI file playable. Once they are playable, in the QT 7 app then they can be chnged or converted to file types and compression formats that can be edited in iMovie. (While Perian handles most codecs commonly used to create AVI files, it does not handle all possibilities and, while the Perian codec package still works under cureent Mac OS versions, its development group has decided to drop further development/support of the package.)
    Background: AVI is a file container originally developed by Microsoft back in 1992 but for which official support was discontinued about 11 years. Despite its limitations, Windows users still tend to use this file based on its open source ease of use and generic nature, thus, making its use so popular that most users are unwilling to switch to more modern but less generic file types. Since some AVI legacy compression formats have never been transcoded for the Mac or use beyond OS 9 or OS X PPC platforms, it is often important to know what specific compression formats are contained in the AVI file to know which codecs to add to your system and which not to add in order to avoid possible codec conflicts.
    You can use many different converters to convert AVI files to iMovie edit compatible files. Most third-party apps contain their own buit-in codecs which do not relay on the Mac codec component configuration. Free ones, like HandBrake, usually have limited conversion capabilities while those that have more varied outputs are usually commercial in nature and will cost you additional cash. QT 7 Pro or the free MPEG Streamclip app allow you to access you own system's component configuration and use any available codec component like DV, AIC, MPEG-4, H.264, Photo JPEG, etc.—all of which are iMovie compatible for editing purposes—but only after making the AVI file QT 7 player compatible.
    In order to determine what compression formats wewre used in your AVI files you can
    1) Try checking the Finder "Info" window,
    2) Use the "Inspector", "Media Info", or "Properties" window of any player app that will open the file, or
    3) Use a general media utility app like "MediaInfo" to read the file characteristics.

  • My iMovie voice recording is suddenly not working. As I record, it shows the green bars; however, when I play the recording it does not play my voice over at all nor show the green bars. I was mid-way through my project when this problem occured.

    As far as I can see, it's random. Everything. Nothing makes any sense!
    A the moment, the iPhone is playing music with the SIM card, but without anything plugged into it, but it's occasionally fading in and out.
    Oh, and I doubt this is related, but about two months ago the iPhone failed to show that the battery was draining - it was stuck at 100%. This went on for a few days, it wouldn't even warn me at the 20% mark, it would just shut off. This happened for at least three full charges - I remember at one point it suddenly started working again at about the 70% mark, I'm not sure if it was alright after that or if it went glitchy on the next charge... but in any case, the problem mysteriously never reappeared after those few days.

  • I'm trying to place an order for 3 iPhoto Albums, but the system won't take the billing address. I'm in Costa Rica and will send the albums to an address in Miami. Can't find any support live chat for billing issues.

    You need to use a credit card with a billing address in the same country as the delivery address.  Since there's no Apple Print Store for Costa Rica I assume you're using the United States print store.  Therefore you'll need a credit card with a billing address in the US.

  • I added some songs to my itunes but now my itunes won't play the songs - it says it can't locate the song although the Itunes match is turned on and it says all of my songs are in the cloud - anyone have any thoughts

    i added some songs to my itunes but now my itunes won't play the songs - it says it can't locate the song although the Itunes match is turned on and it says all of my songs are in the cloud - anyone have any thoughts

    Did you delete the hard copy of the songs from your computer after you uploaded them?
    If so just highlight the said songs and delete but do not check the box that says delete from iCloud and your songs should play fine. 
    This happens when the original file is moved from the location that itunes was looking for it at and if you did this because you uploaded it then it will still be in the cloud you just need itunes to read from cloud and not think it's supposed to be finding the original file

  • When I ask Siri to play a song it goes to the song but won't play the song

    when I ask Siri to play a song it goes to the song but won't play the song.  The song shows when I open the music app, but the bar does not move and there is no sound.  Even if I hit pause then play nothing happens.  If I go back to the playlists and select another playlist or song then music plays.

    After doing and changing EVERYTHING on that page, I ended up re-installing Quicktime by itself and finally that solved the problem. Thank you for the advice page though, it had a lot of good information on it that related to my problem.

  • Will system automatic clear all the records in v$SQLAREA?

    Can anyone tell me when the system will clear all the records in v$SQLAREA table? Or this is a global temporary table, once the database is down, all the records will remove from this table.
    FAN

    v$sqlarea contains records from shared memory, which uses LRU algorithm to store data (oldest data are thrown away where there is no place for new data). On the other hand shared memory is empied when you shutdown database (thats why is contains almost no data at startup).

  • Why does it show a (!) when i double click on the play list and it won't play the song?

    why does it show when i double click on the playlist and it won't play the song?

    The exclamation point means iTunes is no longer able to locate the track and the location specified.  See this article for more details.

  • I've just bought a MacBook Pro The system won't recognise the serial number even tho I've typed it in carefully several times The helpline is closed Any ideas?

    I've just bought a MacBook Pro The system won't recognise the serial number which I've copied very carefully several times from the underside of the computer
    The helpline is closed Any ideas? I don't know what the operating system is - how do I find that out?

    What are you trying to do?
    The operating system can be found by going to the Apple menu and selecting "About this Mac"
    Under "Mac OS X" should be the Version 10.6.x, clicking Software Update will update the operating system via the internet.

  • My iPad and iPod touch won't play the music I choose. Has anyone any idea what the problem could be?

    Hi,
    Since the IOS 5.0 update my iPad 2 and iPod touch (3e generation) won't play the music I choose. I choose a song from Michael Jackson for example and it's going to play something completely different. The images has changed aswel, so it is a bit strange.
    I treind to sincronise them again, but this doesn't change a thing. Has anyone any idea what could be the problem and how to solve it?
    Kind Regards,
    Ward

    So just in case anyone else ever runs into this...
    I solved the issue and it was that between the plug of the new earbuds being slightly thicker than the Apple earpods, and the width of the case that I was using for my iPod, there wasn't a connection being made to activate the remote function.
    I took off the case and now the earbuds work exactly as they should!

    I downloaded a song and it can up in my music library but it won't play the song

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the track from the Music app on your iPad and redownload it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app (or via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes).
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if the re-downloaded version also doesn't works 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

  • I'm getting a very low signal from my Blackbird interface. The fire wire connection is selected properly and track recording sliders set. However the recording level slider in the lower right corner is grayed out. How can I get better signal?

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.
