I suddenly can't watch .mov files with the QuickTime Player x?
I suddenly can't watch .mov files with the QuickTime Player x? There is always the message, i should look after new software! Can you help me?
Handy-dandy cut and paste to the rescue!
you need to install some other stuff to get the full file functionality back.
Here's the list.
Start with QT 7.6.6. - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
Get Perian, and install it. - http://perian.org
then VLC, - http://videolan.org
DivX - http://divx.com - and the
Flip4Mac package from Telestream - http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac/
A52/AC3 downloader: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/21875/a52codec - In this installer package there is an audio A52Codec.component. DO NOT USE IT! Throw it out and use the one that is linked below.
This is what I've put into my system and so far I've gotten every file to run fine, even my oldest videos.
These are codecs you should see.
In System/Library/QuickTime
AppleIntermediateCodec.component
AppleMPEG2Codec.component* (*optional if you've bought it)
DivX Decoder.component
Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component
Flip4Mac WMV Export.component
Flip4Mac WMV Import.component
In your Home/Library/QuickTime/
AC3MovieImport.component (you may or may not want this component, in some instances it causes conflicts. In my system, it doesn't. Who knows why? I don't.)
Perian.component
For AC3 sound that is in most .mkv files, you need the A52Codec.component, this is the one you want, here: https://code.google.com/p/subler/downloads/detail?name=A52Codec.component.zip - unzip the file and put the component into the System/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components
Go back to your Perian settings and in the Audio Output button, set it to 'Multi Channel Sound' - Ignore the message Perian puts up and select it.
By doing a 'Get Info' on your files and where it says 'Open With' - default them to the QuickTime 7 program. Perian no longer will work with QuickTime Player so you must have QT 7.6.6 and set it so it is the default for all the filetypes you use.
It works perfectly with QT7. So far I've gotten ALL my old videos to play.
.avi, .mov (with the AC3 sound), .wmv, .flv, .mp4 and .m4v. all run fine as do all the older formats.
Good luck!

Re AppleMan 1958 excellent user tip: How can I import a homemade DVD into iMovie for editing? -
I've followed instructions with success until "You can then FILE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME and choose Apple Intermediate Codec as your video codec. " How do I do that?
I installed MGEG Streamclip 193b8 and used their utility to install quicktimempeg2 and got a message stating it was successfully installed. (I'm on latest Maverick 10.9.2 on iMac) Then I dragged the VIDEO_TS file from my home DVD into the streamclip app. It asked which of 4 files to use, and I selected the first one. Streamclip played the video with the sound. so far so good. but now I cannot figure how to use quicktime player 10.3 to export this vob file out of streamclip.Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion. I'm exporting the first section now. I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie. I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame? If it can, what size should I select when I export?

After installing Maverick, my downloaded movies will not play in Quick Time. I receive the following error message:
You can’t open the application “QuickTime Player.app” because it may be damaged or incomplete. So I tried to unistall QT and I get an error that says, You can not delete this application as it is a requirement for the OSX.
Well I did find a way to delete it, by going into the various components and one by one deleting it. Now I reinstall it and the message is that this Quick Time is for an earlier version before Maverick 7. SMH....Now what.?Hello, terrygav.
I would recommend processing a reinstall of Mavericks.

MPEG 2 files jittery in QuickTime player & Apple DVD Player
I'm not sure if this is a QuickTime issue or not, but I am having trouble playing back MPEG 2 files in the QuickTime Player, and also in the Apple DVD Player.
During pan shots there is a noticeable jitter which is not there in the original footage. I have made the MPEG 2 files in Compressor, and also in DVDSP, and used a variety of settings to no avail. All the files I've tried play back fine in VLC, and also play back fine when burnt to DVD and played on my television.
Any suggestions?Well, that's the odd thing. It looks fine on the CRT TV. And in VLC Player it looks ok too. But in QuickTime and DVD Player it looks shocking. I took the DVD to work and played it on my PC there and it looks pretty awful there too. I take your point about being overly sensitive, but I showed it to my partner who is not the perfectionist nerd that I am, and he mentioned it without me even saying anything. Funny thing is, it seems to only be on the MPEG 2 files. I output last night as an MPEG 4 (figuring I'd have to put the footage on the web instead of on DVD) and there was no jerky problem with that file at all.

Why won't quicktime player work? I own Mac Book Pro with Retina Display and connote get the quicktime player to open or play quicktime movies?
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Preferences/com.apple.quicktimeplayer.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update. -

Yes. You can't update or restore any GSM iPhone without a valid sim card installed in the phone. The sim card need not be activated, but it must be valid & present. If you want to update, you need to get a sim card. -
Running QuickTime files with no QuickTime player installed
I export keynote files into QuickTime format, but most of my audience might not have QuickTime installed. Is it possible that I somehow create a file that can automatically play that file without having the actual QuickTime player installed? So the player is embedded. I heard windows media player can do this.
Thanks beforehand.To clear up a misconception, Windows Media Player can NOT do that. But Windows Media Player is installed by default on all Windows machines in much the same way that QuickTime Player is installed on all Macintoshes.
PowerPoint for Windows can export to a self-running executable, which includes both the PowerPoint show and a viewer for it, but that will only run on a Windows computer.
A better solution may be to provide a download link along with the files so that your audience can install QuickTime; or if you are distributing on disk, include the standalone installer along with your files (Apple has a license available to allow you to do that). Also know that if your audience has iPods, they have QuickTime.

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 annoyingQuickTime 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. -
I can't Install iTunes or QuickTime Player
i have downloaded iTunes 8 from the official apple website, when i click the icon on my desktop which was created from the download it says...
gathering required information but then it says...
your computer must be restarted for any changes to iTunes to take effect.
so i do it and then try and go onto iTunes...
IT DOES IT AGAIN!
this keeps happening over and over, i have tryed deleting all the things i have downloaded and downloading again and the same happens.
its a never ending loop.
also when i click on the QuickTime Player buttons it says erroe46 or someting...
file cannot be found
please help me guys!ok then, sorry ill get the exact problem typed now in number order...
EDIT:
QuickTime Player:
When I click on the QuickTime Player icon my desktop which was made when I downloaded iTunes 8 from the official apple website I got this...
'Error 46: Could not load or find the QuickTime ActiveX control.'
iTunes:
When I click on the iTunes icon on my desktop which was made when I downloaded iTunes 8 from the official apple website after what seemed to be a normal instalation I got this...
1. Preparing to install
2. Please wait while windows configures iTunes (takes 9 seconds)
3. Gathering required information...
4. Time remaining: 3 seconds
5. Time remaining: 2 seconds
6. (then jumps to) Time remaining: 14 seconds
7. You must restart your system for the configuration changes made to iTunes to take effect. Click Yes to restart now or No if you plan to manually restart later.
*Then this happens*
1. (If I click Yes) Opens the 'Computer' page then restarts my computer (takes longer than usual.
1. (If I click No) Opens the 'Computer' page and does nothing else. (If I restart my computer manually then nothiing out of the usual seems to happen)
2. (After restart) If I click the iTunes icon this happens all over again!
Notes
I have tryed deleting all of the components of the original download and then downloading again three times to see if it helps. But no luck.
Would trying to find an earlyer version of iTunes possibly help? like version 7 or something?
SOON I WILL RECORD WHAT HAPPENS AND POST ON YOUTUBE AND SEE IF THAT HELPS ANYONE THAT MIGHT HAVE A SOLUTION FOR ME.

HT204382 Why can't I get my QuickTime player to work?
I'm having a horrific time accesing both my QuickTime Player and my PowerPoint Icon that I use to have access to. Nothing seems to work and I couldn't even give a presentation the other day. It was absolutely embarrising to show up to a business meeting and not be able to use my MACBook Pro. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for all of your help.
You're probably using IE11. This is a known problem with Internet Explorer 11, which Microsoft has been aware of since October 18 when they released their latest "untested" browser. The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser, at least until Microsoft gets their act together and fixes IE..
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in. -
I am trying to edit video clips from about two yesrs worth of video for an iMovie. I don't want to load all of the clips into a new event because it would be hours worth of video. I don't even know if iMovie could handle it. I have tried to use Quicktime Player to do this, but the "trim" function under the edit menu is gray and won't let me do anything. What can I do?
Thank you so much!
It works!
I used this code...
videoDisplay.addEventListener(VideoEvent.COMPLETE, videoCompleteHandler);
private function videoCompleteHandler(event:VideoEvent):void {
hideVideo();
private function hideVideo():void {
this.visible = false;
this.includeInLayout = false;
I have a follow up question...
What is the syntax to target the video player from a different component to add an event listener to a button in the Sharing Widget called Back to Video?
Thanks!!

I can't get mirroring to work from any of my iOS devices (Ipad2, iPhone 5 and iPad air). I click on airplay, and select mirroring, but nothing appears on the tv screen and the connection with the Apple TV drops off after 5 seconds. Any ideas why
Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
1. Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
2. Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
3. Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
4. Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
5. Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
6. Restart your mobile device.
