HT3775 how to open extension .flv

What program do i need to use so i can open a file with an extension .flv on my macbook. i have os 10.6.8

Just use VLC
to make VLC the default application that opens FLV files, right click the FLV file and then choose Get Info.
a tall window will appear. one of the options is Open With. then you can choose vlc from the pull down menu.
Then you choose change all.
Flash Player can be a stand alone app depending on which one you're using.
It is limited where VLC can play almost any video format you throw at it. It can also play most sound files. it's really all you need now.

    Open FLV on Mac, you can use VLC, and to open FLV in iPhone, you need to convert FLV to iPhone formats like MP4, MOV, M4V,

  • HT3775 How to open .flv format.

    Hi, I've got a video attachment in a .flv format. Does anyone know how to open this on my Mac OS X 10.7.5? Thanks

    A .flv file is a flash video file. I think that to see them you'll need Adobe Flash Player and open them via Safari. Other than that I think that the appropriate program is the full Adobe Flash CS6 program which is the one that create such files.
    I would suggest first trying to open the flv file with Safari and see if Adobe Flash Player kicks in.

    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.
    Good luck

    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.

  • How to open extension .wmv ?

    Ordinarily I delete email extensions I can't open. However, in the past couple of days I've received several .wmv mail attachments from different people. Now I'm curious. I tried the Mail Help suggestions, none of which worked. What the . . . . . ?

    There are no viruses at this time that which can affect OS X. If you were to happen to pick up some sort of Windows virus, they're completely benign in OS X. Just delete them if you get one.
    .wmv files are not known to carry any malware. Display as many of them as you want.
    Flip 4 Mac does not get installed directly into QuickTime. It's installed as a Internet plugin so you can view .wmv files in your web browser. If one happens to come attached to an email, just save a copy of it to the desktop. Then drag and drop it into any open browser window to watch it (after you've installed Flip 4 Mac). Though they may run right in Mail after the plugin is installed.

    Try dragging it onto the desktop first and if it still will not open try downloading MPEG Streamclip (free program) and try opening it and/or converting it to a format which will open such as .avi

    To use the mega addon you need only active the addon, go to '''Tools''' >> '''Addons''' >> '''Extensions''' look for Mega and check if it is active, then just search for one archive on the internet to download through the Mega site, then addon is necessary to download from mega but it isnt a manager

    For permanent use go to Bridge Preferences File Type Association section and
