HT3775 Am having trouble opening movies I download?

Hello
I have downloaded movies, when I go to play them it isn't supported by quick time player. It says I have to change the file name I do that and it still wont work.
Help Please!
Carmel Geia

Are these movies from iTunes or places like Youtube or a torrent site?
If it's the latter, we are not allowed to discuss circumventing DRM and copyright protection or we'd be violating the ToU here. You'll have to check Google.

  • Having Trouble Opening things after downloading

    I have had my macbook for about 6 months and about half the things I download won't open after I download them. When I try to open them, they just download over and over again.
    The latest thing is Flash Player, which I need to take my last class to graduate from college. Please help. I don't want to have to go to the library at school every time I need this application.

    Sounds like we need to clearly establish what's happening!
    With Firefox & Safari, a "downloads" window opens when you download a file of any kind. If it's an application installer, you can double-click the icon in the downloads list once the download finishes and the installer should run.
    So for Adobe's FlashPlayer, you'd go here:
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    Click the "agree and install now" button, and then go find the file (probably in your "downloads" folder (home>downloads) or on your desktop. After unzipping the file, you click the disk image (the .dmg) and open the installer. Once the disk image mounts (it should appear under "Devices" in the Finder window), click on it and then open up the .pkg file.
    Hopefully that helps you a bit. If not, please be sure to clearly outline what you are doing and post images if possible. You can take screen shots by holding commandshift3. The images will be on the desktop and can be hosted on another website, such as photobucket.com or imageshack.us.
    Also, is there any link you could give us to see if we can view the pages properly? Are you certain they should work on a Mac?

  • Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw Update for Photoshop CS5. I have a pc.

    Please Help? Having trouble opening camera raw files. Already downloaded Camera Raw update. I have a pc.

    If the camera is fairly new then the version of ACR you have with CS5 won't be able to read those file. You'll need to upgrade to a newer version of Photoshop or use Lightroom 5.
    Once a new version of Photoshop comes out Adobe does not support updating ACR from the older version of PS.

  • Having trouble putting movie on new Zen MX

    *having trouble putting movie on new Zen MX? just recieved it in the mail. i am able to load mp3's without any problems. i want to put Incredible Hulk on to it for a road trip. Creative Centrale has no problem seeing the movie, i can use the rip function to bring up all the info on it. when i press start rip i get "dvd decoder not found". i have the latest media player 0 and also <span class="text">CyberLink PowerDVD.
    this is one of the main reasons i purchased this player as i like to watch movies while i am on planes. if i can not get this player to do movies i will be retuning it ASAP and purchasing one that can do it without having to pull teeth to do it.
    any help would be appreciated as i am leaving for a trip in 3 days and will be watching movies on a mp3 player by then(maybe not a ZEN)
    i uderstand about the legal issues when ripping movies but the one of the reason i bought this player was because it stated you could watch movies on it. now if i can not do that then i have no reason to keep it

    Sounds like you are missing the codecs which is a computer issue not the player. You can download codecs from microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...vice/[email protected]

  • Having trouble opening a pdf with Adobe...keep seeing an error sign "acroExch"  does anyone have a way to fix this?

    Having trouble opening a pdf with Adobe...keep seeing an error sign "acroExch"  does anyone have a way to fix this?

    Hmm, "Use Adobe Reader" should launch the PDF outside of Firefox in the stand-alone Adobe Reader application, so seeing it in a tab is something of a puzzle.
    Could you check your version of Adobe Reader? For Windows 7, you normally would have the Reader XI series (Reader 11), which has had several updates. From inside Adobe Reader, you can use Help > Check for Updates to make sure it's current.
    In Firefox, could you check your Adobe Acrobat plugin version or possibly versions? You can view that on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Plugins. If you find multiple versions, this can cause problems and may need to be cleaned up manually (post back on that for suggestions).
    Sometimes, the settings file which stores those download handler preferences becomes corrupted and there's not much else to do than to rename or remove that file and let Firefox rebuild it.
    To do that, open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
    * (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. This will launch a new window (Windows Explorer window) listing various settings files.
    Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
    * (menu bar) File > Exit
    Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename '''mimeTypes.rdf''' to something like mimeTypes.old
    Start Firefox back up again and "PDF Files" should be back to their default setting of "Preview in Firefox". Try changing that to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)" and test to see whether there's any improvement.

  • I am having trouble opening iphoto as it keeps showing the loading sign. I am using os x 10.6.8 and my iphoto version is 9.2.3. Please help

    i am having trouble opening iphoto as it keeps showing the loading sign. I am using os x 10.6.8 and my iphoto version is 9.2.3. Please help

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • I am having trouble opening .nef raw files from a nikon d800 in elements 9.

    I am having trouble opening .nef raw files from a nikon d800 in elements 9.
    I have tried to update ACR to the latest version but can not tell if this has been successful
    I just get the message "wrong type of file"

    For the D800 you have two alternatives:
    (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)
    Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3
    You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click. See this quick video tutorial:

  • I'm having trouble opening pdf's on my Samsung Note tablet.

    I'm having trouble opening pdf files on my Samsung note tablet. Before I encountered this isssue, a window would pop up with Adobe  as an option everytime I downloaded a pdf files, however now I'm only given polaris office as an option to open pdf's. I've tried changing the settings but have had no success. I'd appreciate any help or advice.

    Hi,
    Do you have Adobe Reader installed on your device? You can check it under Settings-->Apps. If Adobe Reader is installed on your device and still the pdfs open in some other app, then you might have chosen that app to be the default app for always opening pdfs. You can clear the defaults for that application. Just go to Settings-->App--->Polaris(or any other app where the files open)--->Clear Defaults. Next time you try to open a pdf, you will be presented with the options again. Hope this helps. Please let us know if you still face some issues.
    Thanks.

  • Is anyone having trouble playing movies they purchased?  I have no issue watching netflix or previews but I can't watch what I already purchased.

    Is anyone having trouble playing movies they purchased?  I have no issue watching netflix or previews but I can't watch what I already purchased.

    A number of people have reported similar issues recently, many appear to have found a discrepancy of some kind in their account settings and making changes to these settings or simply resetting them has resolved the matter.
    Check your account details are correct, check that you are using the correct details for Location, Region and Time Zone. You may want to change these settings and then change them back to see if that helps.
    Also check your payment details, make sure your details are exactly how they appear on your credit card statement, you might also try changing some of those details, saving them and changing them back again.
    You might also try logging out of and then back into your iTunes account (Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID’s > Sign Out) and restarting your router. (Some have reported that after doing this, they need to check for rentals even though it may report that there aren’t any, after which rentals once again appear in the ‘movies’ feature)
    Rentals should appear under their own heading in the ‘Movies’ feature, you might also check at Settings > iTunes Store > Check For Rentals.
    At this point in time, I’m wondering if this could be related to (but not restricted to) the new feature that allows others to come into your home and use your Apple TV to download and play their content on your Apple TV without logging into their account on your Apple TV. The Terms of Use for iTunes Store content have always been to require you to only purchase and play the content from the store in the location where you live and to use a credit card registered in that location. Previously Apple seem to have been somewhat lenient on enforcing such restrictions, perhaps now they are not. However I don’t really have any evidence to support this suggestion, except that changes made to accounts in these areas do appear to be helping many.
    If you are successful in resolving your problem, perhaps you would let us know exactly which action resolved the problem for you. If you are having this problem to begin with, can you also tell us your location.

  • My Mac is having trouble opening Webpages

    My Mac is having trouble opening webpages all of a sudden it will take over 5mins to do. I checked my router with my laptop and it is working fine. It opens the apple page fast. Does any one have any suggestions.

    If you are using Safari ...
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    If that didn''t help, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari
    If that didn't help, might be corrupted Safari preferences (.plist)
    Quit Safari.
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Click Go
    Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari. If that helped, move the .plist file to the Trash. If not, move it back to the Preferences folder.
    And try troubleshooting Safari unsupported plugins.  From the menu bar click Safari > Preferences > Security
    Deselect: Enable plug-ins. Quit then relaunch Safari. If that made a difference, follow the instructions here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues

  • I am having trouble running .mov files on my ipad. What can I do?

    I am having trouble running .mov files on my ipad. What can I do?
    Thanks.

    go to the app store and search .mov   The pad plays a certain set of file types, but not all.  In the appstore there are several alternate players that will work.  Find one that does what you heed, and is priced right for you,and download it.
    ((WM Player HD lite is free, and look like the one you might want)
    I use xy player, and VLC, but I am not sure either one is still available.

  • Why am I having trouble opening my gmail account on safari? It's driving me crazy! =(

    Hello! =)
    Can anyone help me? I have been having trouble opening my gmail account with Safari this week. I had to download firefox in order to check my email. It's terrible!
    Thank you,
    V

    I have multiple gmail accounts that are linked through gmail.
    Only some open in Safari.  I also had to use Firefox to access these accounts. 
    Today, in Safari,  I secondary clicked in the address bar while the page was stuck loading.  I found an option "Open URL" which I clicked on,  and the account page opened quickly.
    I tried this several times and so far this has always worked.
    To be sure that you are clicking in the address bar, the address should be highlighted.
    I know that this is several months since your post, and I do not know if you have found a solution, but I thought I would share this work around. And I hope this helps.
    MacBook Pro, Mid 2010, OS X 10.8.2, Safari 6.0.1.

  • Having Trouble Opening TIFF Files

    I'm having trouble opening TIFF files into Camera Raw. I have checked all my settings in Adobe Bridge and everything seems to be saying that TIFF files should open in Camera Raw when I click on then int and then into photoshop when finished editing in camera raw.
    I'm trying to open 32 bit HDR images saved as a TIFF file into Camera Raw, and there seems to be nothing I can do to get them there. I have tried everything I can think of. When I right click on it (cmd click I'm on a mac) the option to open in camera Raw isn't there. I have tried clicking and dragging the image into Photoshop to try and force it maybe to open into Camera Raw, and I have opened photoshop and tried opeing it up from mini Bridge. In mini bridge I have the option to open the image into Camera Raw when I click this nothing happens.
    I'm not sure what else to try I'm on CS6 and Camera Raw 7.0 .

    Alright I'll try that thanks!

    It might be that you need to update camera raw to version 8.3 by going to Help>Updates from within photoshop or bridge.
    (i don't remember exactly in which version of acr that was added, but probably after version 7.0)
