I do have an external HD with at least 3T of movies but can not play them at all  play them at all they are AVI movies what should i to to play them please help me out

To all my Mac friends
I have an external hard drive with 3T of movies but i tried to play them i always get this message
:: To see if additional software is available that will enable Quick Time player to open the movie click for more:::
The listr of the movie is showing AVI Movies so i can not open any movie so pleaset help me help me find a way to transfer or to download any program such as VLC in order for me to watch that many movies and i thank you so much for your help and attention

Your intuition is correct. Download a free download of VLC player, and you may end up using it as your default video player. (It's faster and more versatile than QTPlayer.)
When you install it on your MacBook, it willl allow you to view media on your external HD.

  • While notes, reminders and calendar are working fine, keynote (beta) and pages (beta) are not responding, they are sticking. What should I do?  I would appreciate help.  Thank you.

    Unfortunately, most of my advice is in the "hindsight is 20-20" category.
    First off, I would never have purchased the peripheral accessories until the 14 day return period had expired. Second, you learned the hard way what the "14 days" really means.
    Too bad you didn't do any homework, reading this and other forums and tech sites. Even word of mouth from others. That, more than anything could have steered you towards different phone choices from the get-go and I will leave that there with no further comment other than to say most of the issues you described have been discussed in this forum, ad nauseam.
    Once you got into the refurbished phone exchanges, that is where things really went haywire. What someone tells you over the phone is a sketchy proposition, and when it comes down to it, it's your word against theirs.
    I think Verizon tried to make it right, though. Remember, they don't make the phones. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
    You stated yourself you were a satisfied Verizon customer before this. Had the first two phones performed as they should, you would still be a satisfied Verizon customer.
    Doubt any of that will make you any happier, but after you went through the effort of writing such a long post, I thought I'd try.

  • Restore to previous icloud settings and photos/video are gone. Still recognized 6 gigs of data but can't find them. please help me rescue my children's precious moments.  Thanks in advance

    Alright people i have a problem and looking for help. Yesterday the iphone started acting funny, a couple apps started crashing and the Iphone reboot a few times on it's own. Things seemed to be back to normal and I notice a "system update" that needed to be install. I thought this update may help the earlier crashing issue. During install, the Iphone froze up and I had to wipe it to factory settings.
    Now I have not backed up the phone on the computer/itunes, because I bought extra storage in ICloud. I reset my phone to the last Icloud setting and rescued my contacts, but not the apps or PHOTO/VIDEOS. I was expecting to have the phone to return back to my previous working phone, but now I have to reinstall the apps. Reinstalling the apps is no big deal, but now I only have 6 pictures and NO videos. The icloud settings tells me I have multiple gigs of data used, but where are the photos and videos?
    I should add that I lost all my previous text history, which I wish to get back too if possible...
    To save some conversation, I researched and didn't find much answers, but found most people were double backing up the photos with Dropbox, Google+, and/or Flickr. I have set up accounts at all three to prevent further issues, but this won't replace the last 6 months of photos that I can not seem to find or reinstate back onto Iphone.
    Android uses an external memory card to prevent this type of data loss. #apple#iphone #icloud
    I should add the wife and I have two accounts: I have an Iphone 5s and she has her own account with an Iphone 5s and Ipad.  We also have a computer running windows vista.
    Thanks in advance for any help...

    Did you ever restore your last iCloud backup?  That contains you camera roll photos & videos, text messages, app data, settings, etc.  It will also redownload your apps and other purchased media.
    If you didn't, follow the steps in this article to restore the backup: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.

  • Why am I not allowed to activate my product, CS3, when the product is bought years ago and I still have the serial number? It's an old version, but I don't throw products in the bin, just because they are old.

    Why am I not allowed to activate my product, CS3, when the product is bought years ago and I still have the serial number? It's an old version, but I don't throw products in the bin, just because they are old.

    And what exactly is your problem? Other than going of on a tangent about Adobe's alleged evilness preventing you to activate whatever CS3 product, you have not provided any useful info such as what exact problem you have, what system, what product we are axctualyl talking about and so on.

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for the original owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. No must contact the original owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the original owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

    Answers in this forum have shown different things have worked for different people.
    For some clearing YouTube cookies and the cache solved the problem. For details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Deleting+cookies and https://support.mozilla.com/kb/How+to+clear+the+cache
    Others had to go a step further after deleting YouTube cookies and block YouTube from saving cookies. In the Tools menu select Options to open the Options window. Go to the Privacy panel and make sure it is set to "Use custom setting for history". Click the Exceptions button, type in http://www.youtube.com and click on Block
    Another option is to disable hardware acceleration for Flash. To do that right-click on a Flash video, select Settings, go to the first tab of the settings for the option to enable/disable hardware acceleration for Flash. This is something recommended by YouTube for those having problems - http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?&answer=1209379

  • Hi, when the itunes finished the downloading for ios 6 , the iphone turned of and shows that i have to connect it with the itunes , i already did but still not working . please appreciate your help

    First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.
    Second make sure it is iTunes 10.7 or later.
    I would download a fresh copy of the 64 bit version of iTunes 11. After installation reboot your computer.
    Before connecting your phone reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • I have deleted my library on my ipod by accident (how many people must say that). I have a smaller library with my laptop here in qatar, but can I re install my music from my pc at home in uk, from Qatar?

    I have deleted my library on my ipod by accident (how many people must say that). I have a smaller library with my laptop here in qatar, but can I re install my music from my pc at home in uk, from Qatar?

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.
