IMovie uploaded to .mac Homepage won't play

Uploaded an iMovie to my homepage on .mac. Took 90 minutes to compress. The listing shows up on my homepage, but when selected, all that appears is the quicktime symbol- no movie. Any suggestions?
iBook 1.42 Ghz Power PC G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Thanks. I saved the quicktime movie to idisk and then selected a theme, chose the movie and published it. Still, no quicktime movie when I select it. I tried the quicktime movie when it was sitting in the movie folder of idisk on my desktop and it worked fine. I am not quite sure what step I am missing. I erased the movie off of the home page and tried it again, but to no avail.
I also did not understand what you meant when you said to load it to idisk, but not the local copy. There only seems to be one copy, the icon on my desktop. I am fairly new to the Mac world, so let me know if I am overlooking something crucial.

Videos on homepage won't play on IPad 1

Videos on my MSN homepage will not play on my IPad 1. I have no problems with YouTube or tv apps. I've tried a reset, but that didn't fix the problems. Help!?

The videos had played on this IPad until about two weeks ago. I was wondering why they suddenly stopped working when I have not updated software. Do you know if Msn or Bing have changed anything within that time frame, or if something other than a reset would help?

New Mac Pro Won't play back

I'm having a problem with my new Mac Pro 2.66 I keep getting the error, "couldn't keep up". I've got maybe 5 tracks (Kontakt 2,Real Guitar, and EXS) and a couple plug ins and I can't get it to play. I press the space bar and it spins for a sec...plays maybe 1 second and then quits...pops up with the message saying it couldnt access info fast enough. I had my samples on a different computer networked via gigabit but some said that was the problem so I transfered them to a seperate internal (sata 2) drive and it still doesn't work. My CPU is either very low or it maxes out 2 or 3 of the cores before the freeze. I can't believe this is happening with this machine. This is why I got a new one. anyways...thanks for all suggestions.

Same problems here without any Native Instruments plugs.
4 tracks at the same time (2 audio and 2 nexus((or any other instruments))
apple says: we don´t now about this problem and because my 90 day!!! support is finish I have to pay 208EUR and than they help me.

Cannot upload to .Mac homepage!

I'm having the same problems many others are having. iPhoto 5.0.1 works fine in all aspects except for uplaoding to my .Mac webpage. I get the long drawn out "updating themes followed by a "connection cannot be established at this time. Please make sure connection is active" malarky. I've done everything suggested in the thread Katy Scroggins, "iPhoto 5 & Homepage", 10:33am Mar 12, 2005 CDT several times and to no avail. Any wise people out there?

Hi Rob
I was/am having the same problem that you are. I have not found a solution
but there is a workaround that you can do to get your photos on homepage.
Select the photos you want on your homepage. From the iPhoto menu select
share>export. Select the file export tab. Adjust the size by selecting "scale images..." (unless you want large photo files on your website). I use 480x640.
you might also want to make sure the format drop down menu is selected to jpg, or tiff if you prefer. Click on export and choose your destination to save the files in. It's easiest to save them in a new folder on the desktop.
After that, all you have to do is drag that new folder containing the newly exported photos to the Pictures folder on your iDisk.
Now all you have to do is log into .mac, go to homepage and create your web page from there. You will be able to access your photos from the iDisk.
It takes a little more effort, but I actually like this method better because it allows me to name the folders on the iDisk. Making it easier to manage my iDisk because by looking at the name of the folders I know what is in them, rather than having some numerical name for each folder.
Hopefully this helps. Until Apple fixes the problem, this is the best way I know.

Mac Pro won't play radio streams like G5 could

Is it really true that the new Intel-based machines will not ever play live streaming radio broadcasts?
I cannot seem to get this thing to work at all - Flip4Mac, WMP 9.0, nothing seems to work, although my G5 (which is being sold) does. (Some have said that one must run Safari in "Rosetta" mode with the new Intels; if so, how is this done?)
Will this ever be corrected?
Thanks all in advance for your help!

Seems strange you can't get audio to work natively.
Your 3 most popular choices: RealPlayer, Windows Media formats via Flip4Mac, and QuickTime.
RealPlayer - do you have the lastest version (10.1) installed? If you do, have a look at your RealPlayer preferences>Media Types (top 4 boxes selected), Internet (Internet settings - 1st and 3rd box; Web Browser - both boxes checked) and Transport (Network Transport box checked).
QuickTime: System Preferences>Quicktime>Advanced>Mime settings>Audio - make sure all are checked (the only one unchecked for me is "sound designer II". Also, the Miscellaneous box is unchecked.
Flip4Mac - System Preferences>Flip4Mac: Plug-in - 1st and 3rd boxes checked; Movies>1st box checked (obviously not audio related, however, good to make sure it's selected).
Let me know if that helps get you back into the Intel Native mode for audio streaming.

HT1338 imovie keeps quiting and now it won't play my projects

I think I deleted something I wasn't suppose to. I tried clearing space on my hard drive by deleting past events in my imovie folder. Now imovie quits unexpectedly and it won't play my projects. I try play one full screen and I just get a black screen. I also when get out of imovie and go back it won't open my project, but it'll open others?

Welcome to AD!
That authorization loop is annoying, isn't it? It's happened to quite a few folks.
Here are some steps to try.
1. Deauthorize, then reauthorize your PC
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Sign out and sign back into the store to authorize all the accounts, even that old one from 2 years ago that you forgot about.
2. Delete the SC Info folder. The _entire folder_, not just the file. It will get rebuilt the next time you start iTunes. Don't forget to _restart your PC_, as the article says.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389
3. Get a free single of the week, which has the latest DRM on it, and play a few seconds of it. This sometimes will present a new terms of service you need to agree to.
Something else that has been suggested, is to delete one of these problem tracks but DO NOT SEND IT TO THE RECYCLE bin. Then re-add it to Itunes and see if it will play. Just do one track to check this out. Nobody has ever posted back to tell me whether this works.
If you still can't get purchases to play, contact iTS support.

There is a Contact Us button on that page.

ITunes won't play some CD's I upload

I have an old 40GB iPod- I think it is the 4th generation (right before iPods with color screens came out). Every once in a while, I upload a CD that won't play in iTunes, and I don't know why. I have deleted the CD's from iTunes and uploaded them again, and they still won't play. I have updated my version of iTunes and done the whole process again, and it still won't work.
I was uploading my Dropkick Murphys CD's, and found 4 of the CD's that won't work:
Do or Die
Live on St. Patrick's Day
Tessie (EP)
Singles Collection Volume 2
All of these are uploaded from original, store-bought CD's straight to iTunes. I have not synced the iPod to my iTunes library lately, because my old computer died and I don't want to lose the several thousand songs that are on my iPod. (Why won't iPod let you download from your iPod to a new computer? Aaarrrrgh!)
When I click on the first song on that CD in my iTunes library, the little "speaker" icon next to the track just seems to fall down the list of songs. Nothing plays, and it only takes about a second for the speaker icon to fall from one tune to the next. When it reaches the next CD, it starts playing normally again.
I've also noticed that it shows "0:00:00" for the time remaining AND the time elapsed when iTunes tries to play the songs I'm having trouble with. The track length shows up as some ridiculous number, like "789:57:13."
How can I fix this so that I can enjoy all of my music?

I'm not completely sure HOW it happened, but I managed to get 90% of my songs transferred from my iPod to my computer, iTunes updated, and now ALL of that music is on my iPod again.
Floola worked well, but it would be nice if their website had some better instructions. After getting music transferred from my iPod to Floola, I copied everything in Floola to a new folder on my computer and closed Floola. Next, I opened iTunes and the folder I had copied the music to. I minimized them so that both cold be seen on the screen at the same time.
When I started moving music from the folder to iTunes in small batches (about 50), I could more easily identify which songs were causing the error that said some titles were too long. When I encountered that error, I moved a smaller portion of that batch of songs until I found the exact problem. I put the "problem" songs into another folder to deal with later. (It turns out that those songs were all limited to 3 or 4 albums, which I will re-load manually from the CD.)
Once I was done copying all of the songs from the folder to iTunes, and the problem songs had been moved away to a new folder, I thought I was done. I shut down everything, and restarted my computer. I opened iTunes and the music folder again, and this time selected everything in the music folder (not just batches of 50). I dragged the entire list (5000 songs) to iTunes AGAIN, and my music library grew once more. I'm not sure why this happened since all of the music had been moved once before, but I'm glad I did it. I gained another 500 songs!
After the last copy session from the folder to iTunes, I shut everything down once again. I started iTunes, sorted a few playlists, and plugged in my iPod. It updated perfectly.
*+THANKS TO EVERYONE HERE WHO HELPED! I would still be stuck without all of your expertise and advice!+*

Iphone won't play purchased music

Songs ripped from cds play fine, even songs purchased from the iphone play fine. But songs purchased on my mac now won't play on the iphone. I have been away from home for a couple of weeks, so no sync recently. The music stops, the pause button changes to a play button, and pressing play doesn't work; the pause button quickly shifts back to play button. Thanks for any help.

If you have all music that was purchased from the iTunes store in one playlist and you are syncing selected playlists, deselect this playlist under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync to remove all music that was purchased from the iTunes store from your iPhone. Follow this by reselecting the playlist followed by a sync to re-transfer the music to your iPhone to see if this makes any difference.
If you don't have a single playlist or multiple playlists for all music that was purchased from the iTunes store to deselect and reselect, deselect Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences followed by a sync which will remove all music from your iPhone. Follow this by reselecting Sync Music and selecting the playlists, artists, or genres you want transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.

Quicktime x won't play movies

I have snow leopard, mac os 10.6.2 and quicktime x. Ever since I upgraded to snow leopard whenever I put movies into my mac they won't play. They use to automatically play but now they don't. I can't manually make them play either. When I open quicktime it won't even recognize a movie is in. When the movie pops up on the desktop and I open it, it opens as the audio and video file folders and not the actual movie. Any help?

Are these movies employing legacy codecs and/or require a third-party component package like Perian? If so, have you updated the needed components that will work under the QT X/7 combined structure/QTkit?

Disc won't play in DVD player

I just burned a project with iDVD 6 and while it works fine on my Mac, It won't play on my regular DVD player. I know that my main DVD player plays DVD-R because it has played every DVD that I've recorded from my spindle. I test them all on this player. I burned 2 copies of this project and neither would play on my main DVD player... but they would play on my bedroom DVD player. What could this be?

What could this be?
It could be one of several things (or a combination thereof). A dirty lens on the set top dvd player for example. When is the last time you used a quality Maxell or 3M dvd lens cleaner kit? Avoid cheapy kits since they can cause more issues than they resolve.
It could be the media itself.
It could be that you need to lower the burn speed to make the media more readable to this particular set top DVD Player.
It could be that your set top player is a bit dated and refuses to play newer media/s.
Best to take your finished iDvd to a store that sells these DVD Players and try it out on several machines. See if it still happens on other players as well.
Btw, please tell me you are not using Memorex or TDK. I recommend Verbatim or Maxell (your choice) while troubleshooting on this iDvd Forum.

Compressor creating movs that won't play in Windows

I am trying to make transcode video to play back on an installed HD television set. It is being fed by a Windows XP computer over HDMI using Windows Media Player. I have tried 25 different codecs including avi, wmv and mov. The avi and wmv will play on the pc, but the quality is bad and file size is too big. The movs that I create work fine on my mac but won't play on the pc. The movies load with an error message indicating an unknown file type. The audio track plays but no video.
Is there a "Make PC compatible" button that I am missing?

From what I've experienced, HD Quicktime Codecs are not cross-platform. You could try using AJA's or Blackmagic's free downloadable codecs, which are cross-platform, but I don't know how those codecs perform with Windows Media Player.
Your best bet would be to purchase the Flip4Mac HD WMV codecs:
