I want to play a MPG video that was sent to my phone - HOW - HELP HELP

Father in law sent me a MPG video of my son fishing to my phone. It is about 8mgs, can't get it to play. It says I need quicktime to play it. However I don't see a quicktime app? Any ideas or solutions? I really appreciate all the help!!

iPhone will not play .MPG files natively. There are converters that will convert native .MPG files into a compatible iPhone format.
iPhone supports H.264 and MPEG-4 video formats, with AAC audio.

    Is this your issue >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    If so...
    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

  • Does anyone know how to download a video that was sent me to as a screensaver?

    I'm making a video and someone sent me an animated graphic to use in the video but it was sent as a screen saver. I can't download it. I've tried using programs that I used in the past but it doesn't recognize the video. Any help would be appreciated

    If you backup your iPad, the notes are contained in the backup. But the notes will only be as current as your last backup. If you really want to retrieve that note and you know that you backed up after you created the note, try restoring from the backup.
    Bear in mind that everything that was in that backup will be restored to the iPad as well as that one note that you want to retrieve.

  • IMovie is stretching the width of my video that was recorded on my phone! Is there any way to fix this?

    I'm a complete beginner in iMovie. I was at an event and forget my camera and only had my iPhone to record an important event, so I used it, but now that I'm trying to upload it, iMovie is stretching the visual width (I guess the way it cropped it?). Is there any way I can fix this or at least make it a little better? Help would be GREATLY appreciated!

    Use Tabs to position your text and type where the tab starts.

  • Can't import video that was recorded on my phone.

    It was recorded on an iPhone 5S.
    Details:
    -Imported from iPhoto
    -Enable: All Acceptable Files
    -Format: Quicktime
    -Import as: Footage

    Do other QuickTime features in After Effects work, such as the ability to export to QuickTime? If not, then there may be a problem blocking QT32 Server.

  • HT201077 I shared a photo stream of 174 pictures but only 20 are showing up in the folder that was sent out. Any solutions?

    I shared a photo stream of 174 pictures but only 20 are showing up in the folder that was sent out. Any solutions?
    Help much appreciated!

    Upload to the shared Photo Streams can take a long time. Sometimes hours. Did the photos appear by now in the stream?
    Is the iCloud status o.k. ( iCloud Support webpage)?
    Did you share from your mac or from a mobile device? And where are you checking the stream? On your Mac? If you are uploading from a mobile device - is the battery fully charged? Uploading to the Photo Stream is the first that will be suspended, if the device needs charging.
    have ypu exceeded any limits? Daily hourly upload rates? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858

    I would be glad for the opportunity to customize a Premiere Elements 12 answer to your Premiere Elements 12 issue.
    But, I want to make sure that we are together on the details. This is my understanding of what you have written. Please review and let me
    know if I am misinterpreting anything that you have written.
    You have a video created in Windows Movie Maker.
    How did you output the video from Windows Movie Maker...wmv or mp4, what was the frame size and frame rate of that export?
    Next you import that video into Premiere Elements 12 (can we assume that this is on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit?)
    From what you wrote, you have applied a pan and zoom effect to your video in Premiere Elements.
    Now you go to export the Premiere Elements 12 Timeline content with your video with the pan and zoom applied.
    But, the pan and zoom effect is not seen in playback of the export.
    Is all of the above correct so far?
    If so....we are going to need some more details from you...
    a. What is the project preset that you or the project are setting to match the properties of the video coming from Movie maker? See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Rate, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out.
    b. Are you applying the pan and zoom effect with the Pan and Zoom Tool, fx Effects Presets, or keyframing the Scale (for Zoom) and
    Position (for Pan) in the Motion Panel expanded?
    c. What are you selecting as your export in Publish+Share/. Please give details...are you using default settings or customizing the export
    setting under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset selected?
    I am suspecting some sort of mismatch of your project settings or some problems with working with the Pan and Zoom tool. I need
    your answers to help me help you. If I have written anything that you do not understand, please let me know. I will re-write if necessary
    so that we are in sync to resolve the issue.
    Thanks.

  • Safari Does Not Play QuickTime/.mpg Video, Only Audio

    Quicktime video not playing in safari. Checked new user, issue persists, it's a system wide issue. All the settings are right. Worked before. Still works in Firefox and other browsers. Repaired permissions. Even video on the Apple site does not work. Flash still works, windows media content still works via Flip4Mac. I was just wondering if anyone discovered an easy fix for this issue. I don't feel like doing the archive and install (preserving) or re-imaging it. Everything is up to date except for the security update and itunes. Just stopped working tonight though, not right after I did the last updates. As I said. I know the traditional way to attack this, and even a couple time consuming non traditional ways. What I am looking for here is the quick fix (if there is one). Thanks.

    Well, since we are all using different versions of Safari but the same version of QT, I headed over to the QT forum and found this - which seems to work for me.
    I just dragged the file to the desktop, tho.
    "I removed the QuickTime Plugin.webplugin.
    Mac HD > Library > Internet Plug-Ins
    1. Drag QuickTime Plugin.webplugin to the trash.
    2. Relaunch Safari and the QuickTime video that was not playing previously.
    3. The video portion should now work."

  • My ipad2 will not play my iTunes video that i just purchased; i've deleted and reloaded, but they still won't play, only the music

    My ipad2 will not play my itunes videos that i just purchased; I've deleted and reloaded them twice, but still won't play; plays music only, any suggestions?

    You are playing them in the Videos app correct? Music Videos will play the video in the videos app, not in the Music app.

  • My video that was taken with a digital camera and imported into iPhoto plays back at a very fast speed. Any ideas why?

    My video that was taken with a digital camera and imported into iPhoto plays back at a very fast speed. Any ideas why?

    Is it a slow motion video? iPhoto does not understand the slow motion tags created by some cameras, eg.g. the iPhone back camera.

  • What can I do to improve a blurry quicktime video that was SMS'd to me it is a 1.24MB .mov file and I have QuicktimePro. It was taken on an Iphone but I am not sure with what software.

    What can I do to improve a blurry Quicktime video that was SMS' texted to me? I think it was taken on an Iphone and it was sent to me as a 1.24MB .mov file and I have Quicktime Pro if that helps. I REALLY need to make this as clear as possible, the audio is good, video is blurry. Here is some additional data:

    anything I can even try? Sender is off the grid? I don't need a production ready copy just viewable?
    You can rescale (stretch) the size of the display but this will only make it blurier and/or introduce pixellation. When the file was encoded at a lower resolution much of the original data was thrown away to make the file smaller. This data is gone/missing and cannot be recreated from what is left. What you've got is all you have to work with. Any filters you can apply will require re-compressing the file again which will likely introduce more artifacts and increase the size of the file without really improving its overasll quality.

  • I had music on my i tunes that I deleted.  When I sync my iphone the music that was deleted shows up.  How do I get rid of the music I do not want on my iphone?

    I had music on my i tunes that I deleted.  When I sync my iphone the music that was deleted shows up.  How do I get rid of the music I do not want on my iphone?

    Connect your I-phone to i-tunes , click on music . Not the one in the library but the music that opened up when you connected to i-tunes . Highlight the complete album or songs you want deleted, then right click and delete. Once you deleted the songs off you i-phone, then click the music from the library of your i-tunes. If that same music or album is also in there then repeat what you did in the i-phone to delete . This should take it all out.
    good luck
