I can't play the preview videos on iTunes, Quicktime error

For some reason I can not play the preview videos on iTunes. I can play the videos I have bought allready though. So, when I try to run quicktime outside of iTunes I get this error message.
"Quicktime failed to intialize. Error # -2096
Make sure your Quicktime is properly installed on your computer"
I've tryed uninstalling quicktime and iTunes and reinstalling them both. And I have also tried reinstalling just the Quicktime without redoing the iTunes.
If someone can please help I would appreciate it. I would love to be able the preview videos and movies on my iTunes.
Thanks

  • I can't play a bought video in iTunes, and VLC only plays it but no screen. And I have to athourize all the time but it does not help. What's wrong?

    Hi all.
    Just bought my first video from iTunes Store and should watch it with my son. I had to authorize, this and that for some time, but finally I got the video in my iTunes, but it was just a black screen. Nothing playing and no sound (of course). So I tried VLC and it was at least runing there, but no screen and no sound. Quick time said I had to authorize my iTunes acount first (which I had done several times before) and did it again with just the same result, nothing happening. What's wrong? I'm no geek so please help me out with this, I thought it should be easy piecy with a iMac and iTunes, well, hope it was a one in a million problem.
    Thanks

    Could be a corrupt Download.

  • Can not play the music videos on i tunes

    i try to play my music videos on i tunes, i have sound but no picture, i can play tv shows , movies but no music videos which i purchase from i tunes store. any idea why this is happening?

    is your ipod set to auto sync? if it is, you cant listen to those songs on your computer. if you want to listen to songs that are on your ipod on your computer, set it to manually sync or whatever. that should work.

  • Movie rental download complete. but can not play the films (3) in itunes 10.5.0.60. black screen.

    Sound like you are playing with a beta version of iTunes in which case this conversation should be taking place in the developer forums...

  • I can't play the songs bought On iTunes. It will skip them and shuffle to the sync songs from computer.

    The player skips o ley the songs bought On iTunes and plays the oler ones. Do you know if i need to set something?
    Tks.

    "The songs are just grey and i cant press them or anything. There is also a small black lock icon at the bottom of my iTunes"
    Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to automatically update. If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to manual in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing content manually on iPod
    One thing to be aware of with manually updating is that the iPod also has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away. Safely disconnect iPod

  • Can I zoom the flv video playing in my swf?

    Can I zoom the flv video playing in my swf?
    Hi,
    I have a FLV video that is linked from my SWF file (It plays inside a flvplayback component in my movie). I'd like the flv to zoom (as it's playing) when the User mouses over it. Is that possible? I've been able to 'Create a Motion Tween' on it so that it plays in editing mode but when I preview it, the flv just stays the same size.
    I've been doing this zooming with symbols/shapes (using the 2d-zoom motion preset) but I'm wondering how I would do this on a flv. I need the video to be playing as the transform changes so I can't just zoom an image that looks like the video and then swap it for the real video when it gets actual size.
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks Kglad.
    I found a good step by step explanation of this process by Somascope (you need to make a movie clip out of the flv playback component to actually tween it):

  • I can not play the sequence in preview mode. How do I fix this issue?

    Each frame loads in the preview window when highlighted, but I can not play the sequence.

I have been previewing my work as I go by pressing the space bar, Im not sure what I did but now Premiere will not play the preview in the Program sequence window.

    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3209
    When you purchase an HD video on a supported device or computer, only HD video will be downloaded. To download the SD version, you need to download the video again from your Purchased page. Conversely, if you purchase an HD video on an unsupported device, the SD version will be downloaded. Then, you will need to download the HD version from your Purchased page.

    Hi Rosera,
    This is bad and I am sorry to hear that you are running into these issues.
    Let me connect with you, so right now, the current state is that you have installed copy of PSE 8 in trial on your windows 7 machine, and when you are trying to enter the serial number from your PSE 8 Box, it is saying the serial number to be invalid?
    It might sound pretty obvious, but please make sure that you are entering the serial number correctly and of PSE 8(in case you bought a PEPE box)?
    Have you tried the steps mentioned below by Barbara?
    If possible, you can send me the serial number through PRIVATE MESSAGE and I can check it on my end that whether the serial number is indeed invalid or that the issue is with your machine?
    Regards,
    Ankush

  • Hello, I bought a song on iTunes that has a music video to it, but I don't want the song to play the music video. How can I make it so the music video isn't played?

    Hello, I bought a song on iTunes that has a music video to it, but I don't want the song to play the music video. How can I make it so the music video isn't played?

    Hello, iBillyxD. 
    Thank you for the question.  The best way to avoid this behavior would be to delete the music video from your library.  You can always download it again free by accessing your previous purchases.  To delete and item in your iTunes library, select the item and hit delete on your keyboard.
