    How can i play my avi formatted movies with the new mac OSX 10.9.2 update?

    Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

    As far as I know you need third party software unless you bought the music from iTunes, then it's easy.
    Good luck.

    which is residing at system32.

    I want to open Avi files which are compressed via different codecs.
    How i able to open those videos through JMF.You'd need a version of the codec that JMF can use...which basiclly means it needs to be written for JMF.

    Please tell me if there is any codec which can open videos for me.

    which is residing at system32.You could write your own custom codec for those using JNI and whatever functions from the DLL you need, but there's no built-in way to do it.

    how to open media plyer video file in mac?

    If you're talking about Windows Media files (WMV, WMP, etc.) then Flip4Mac will allow most (unless they have DRM) to be played in QuickTime.  VLC will also play them.  There may be other solutions.

    How can I get an .flv file to play on my Mac?

    If all you wan't to do is view the .flv video file and do nothing else to it, video players like VLC and Niceplayer will do the trick. Installing the PERIAN extension to Quicktime will also do the trick.

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases from your iPod to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs), have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, an external drive ? If not then you will need to find a third-party program that can copy them off the iPod and onto your computer.
