Interactive Booklet - help!?

Hi i purchased an album which came with an "interactive booklet" a minute ago. However when i click it, it plays it like a track of 30 seconds length with no audio or video. This in itself is weird as i was expecting a book? Any ideas?
Thanks!!

ahh soo i found out how to make them work...
1. open up your QuickTime Preferences
2. click the advanced Tab
3. near the bottom, under "Media Types", check the box
"Enable playback of Flash tracks"
4. Restart QuickTime and iTunes.
unfortunately, you'll have to live with the new player control because its constantly moving...

  • Interactive Booklet is blank 7 sec .MOV file.... HELP

    I just purchased 'The Captain and the Kid' by Elton John on the US Store.
    (REALLY GREAT ALBUM!!!)
    but the interactive booklet is a 7 second empty .mov file.... HOW DO I GET THE BOOKLET....
    I reported it to iTunes (thru my purchase history) yesterday but have heard nothing....
    HELP!

    Codec : icod
    I generally defer to folks like QuickTimeKirk on these sorts of matters, but I think that's the source of the problem. That's the Apple Intermediate Codec, an editing codec used on Macs:

    ... and it won't display on a PC:

    Can the provider of the file re-export it using a different video codec for you?

  • HELP with Interactive Booklets purchased thru itunes

    I have a 30 gb video ipod. A few of the albums I have purchased through itunes have an interactive booklet attached. When I sync my ipod with itunes, it says my ipod model can not support the interactive booklets. As a result I can't view them. Does anyone have an answer to why this is?????????? I figured that since I have a 5th generation ipod, viewing these booklets would not be an issue. Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    I would recommend calling apple http://www.apple.com/contact/phone_contacts.html

  • Interactive booklets no longer working with v7?

    I just upgraded to iTunes 7 and now my interactive booklets no longer work. I think it may be a Quicktime issue, though, because I can't run them directly in Quicktime either. And to be clear, these are interactive booklets, not the regular .pdf booklets. They come in .mov container, examples include the latest Justin Timberlake album, also Outkast "Idlewild" and Yellowcard's "Lights and Sounds". When I double click the files in iTunes, there is activity up above in the now playing window but no viewer opens. When I execute the files in Quicktime, I get a window with no contents.
    Any ideas?

    Actually, there is a little more to it, because you can't then just click on the interactive book and start it up. What you really have to do is:
    Open Quicktime and go to Quicktime : Quicktime Preferences (note that there are two preferences under the Quicktime menu!)
    Click on the Advanced tab
    Click on "Enable Flash"
    Click OK
    Quit Quicktime
    Restart iTunes
    Then click on an interactive book
    Then click on the album art window to expand it (BUTT only if you are in the regular column view and are showing artwork. If you don't see album art here, go to View and Show Artwork. (BUTT if you are in the new rotating album view panel (that I do like, which you can choose in the upper right hand corner of the iTunes window), then clicking on the album artwork in the rotating view won't start up the interactive booklet. You have to click on the album artwork in the lower left-hand corner)).
    Then, after the album artwork expands to a large window, click on this large album art window to start the book (BUTT if you click on the black control panel at the bottom of the album artwork window, then you'll just advance to the next album art - not helpful).

  • ITunes & Quicktime will not play Interactive Booklets purchased at iTunes

    Have discovered that all interactive booklets that accompanied my iTunes purchases are no longer accessible through iTunes or Quicktime. Has this happened to others, and has anyone discovered a fix?
    Thanks in advance for help.

    if i try to open it from a folder using right click and open with quicktime, then it doesnt work (quicktime message is 'not working, searcing for a reason'
    Hmmm ... that's still a bit odd. It would be nice if we can get that working properly too.
    Can you try generating another couple of those error messages? Take a close note of the time showing on the PC when the messages are created. Now go into your Action Center, and find your Problem History. Look for QuickTime problem reports generated at the time of the errors.
    Open the QuickTime problem reports and have a look through. Do they all seem to be saying the same thing? If so, paste the contents into a reply here so we can have a look.

  • ITunes 7 breaks Interactive booklet

    I made a full album purchase (Justin Timberlake - Future/LoveSounds) which included the Interactive booklet feature. It worked yesterday after the downloaded completed, but when I launch iTunes 7 today, the booklet no longer shows a visual, either in iTunes playback or attempting to open the file directly in Quicktime. The file is still showing that the file is of the correct sizing, i.e. 2.7 megabytes. Any ideas for a solution on this?

    I'm guessing that you have Flash support turned off in QuickTime.
    Go to:
    Apple Menu->System Preferences->QuickTime
    Under the "Advanced" tab, make sure "Enable Flash" is checked & reboot.
    Does that help?

  • Itunes interactive booklet problems

    i dont know if many of you know, but some music albums sold on itunes may come with an "interactive booklet". this is basically a digital version of a cd booklet which runs in quicktime and has moving pages etc. they are also quicktime movie files (.mov)
    i currently have one from a cd which i got last may, it used to open fine within quicktime being an open window with a cd cover sized "movie" playing with options to click to different pages. but for some reason it no longer shows up within the window. i can open it fine but i cannot actually see it, it only opens up like this: http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/4536/quicktimedx6.jpg
    i have tried to uninstall quicktime and then reinstall it again, i have also made sure that the file is not corrupt by downloading another. i have windows xp sp2, quicktime 7.1.3
    any help would be great.
    thanks, jiminy.

    anybody able to help me with this?
    thanks,

  • Interactive booklets no longer play in iTunes

    All my interactive booklets from albums I bought at the iTunes Store no longer play! I am running Leopard with all the latest updates to my software. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Revision:
    From what I've read at macworld.com, Apple disabled the flash function in the latest QuickTime update due to a possible security breach. Why is it that Apple doesn't even mention this? I hope a fix is on the way.

  • Shouldn't "Interactive Booklet" be the size of an Album booklet?

    I noticed when trying to use the Killers "Sam's Town" interactive booklet, it popped up like the album art. I could click on these tiny words I couldn't read to get where I wanted, but I figured I'd make it bigger so I could actually see it. Then it's too big and it's all distorted with pixels. And what's all this about not being able to listen to music while viewing the booklet? I tried but couldn't figure this out. Is this possible? If not...this interactive booklet stuff is really bogus.

    Doesn't seem like an issue to me.
    Would you ban all cover tunes as well?
    No one can remake a song?
    Who decides who can sell their cover songs?
    You want Apple to decide who can and cannot sell their legal music on itunes, based on what?  If someone has made the song/album before, then Apple should deny the legal sale of the product?
    Seems like a bad idea.

  • Interactive booklets don't work, flash playback option nonexistent.

    I have an interactive booklet, but whenever I open it, a black screen shows and it goes through 3 seconds of a silent track. I went to this link but the "Enable playback of Adobe Flash tracks" is nonexistent. I have the latest version of QuickTime and iTunes, as whenever I tell them to update it just tries to install Safari, obviously a bad idea.

    ... Unfortunately, that article about playing interactive booklets is out of date. With QuickTime 7.3.1 and above, the Flash handler has been disabled due to security concerns. There's some more info about that in the following document:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307176
    ... so that check box just doesn't exist anymore in the advanced preferences of a QT 7.4.1 (which it sounds like you've got, given that ASU is only telling you about Safari at the moment).
    My guess is that we'll only get it back if a new, secure, Flash handler gets developed for Quicktime.

  • Interactive Booklet Question

    I bought a yellowcard - lights and sounds interactive booklet from itunes but when I view it I can only get it in the area where album art usually is and when I stretch the side bar the font and everything is still very small. How do I use an interactive booklet on a large or full screen in Itunes?<

    OK, never mind about the interactive booklet; I figured it out. Pretty cool.

  • Problem with interactive booklet

    i just bought B'Day, by Beyonce, whihc comes with an interactive booklet. i double click on it and nothing happens.... i tried to open it in Quicktime and RealPlayer but it wouldn't work
    how does a digital booklet work?
    does anyone know why this is happening?

    I'm having the same problem. I sent them an e-mail last night and got some delusional response that had nothing to do with my question. I specifically asked about the "B'Day" interactive booklet and said it wouldn't work and all they said was you've downloaded "B'Day" already. I sent them a second e-mail, but I haven't heard back yet.
    I'm also having a problem with my "Idlewild" interactive booklet. I can't get it to expand into a larger window. It's only done it once.
    The whole interactive booklet thing seems like a complete mess. Not to mention they have 2 of the same version of "B'Day" on iTunes if you click on her name. I'm wondering if one version had the actual booklet and the other didn't. There was an incident with Danity Kane's album on release day also. They had two versions at first, one with a video and one without. But both were the same price. They eventually got rid of the one that didn't include the video. I knew it was an error. But I'm wondering if the same thing happened here.

  • Interactive booklet file missing: How do I get it back again?

    I have the album "Highway Companion" Deluxe version by Tom Petty. I recently discovered that there is an interactive booklet that is is a movie file but the file contains no data. It's just a black/blank screen. I checked my purchase history for the download and I notice this item is not listed there - just the tracks and a video.
    I don't know what happened to file, e.g., whether it got corrupted or never downloaded in the first place. I reported this a problem through the purchase history but haven't heard from iTunes.
    Is it possible to get this file again? Or will I have to purchase the entire album again just to get the interactive booklet?

    Just because it's only offering those two as installable doesn't mean the others aren't also on the disk!
    Go to HD/Library/Receipts and see if there are any pkg files there with iPhoto in the name. If there are, delete them
    Also, try using Pacifist to search and extract the installers from the disk.
    Regards
