Iphoto movie wont open with quicktime

Movies in Iphoto used to play with quicktime but have stopped playing

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
iPhoto 8 (09) and earlier- run the options indicated
iPhoto 9 (11) and later- run Option #4 to rebuild the database
2 - try playing the videos again in iPhoto.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager (iPhoto 8 or earlier or IPhoto 11 and later) and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the
File ➙ Rebuild Library (iPhoto 8 or earlier)
or
Library ➙ Rebuild Library (iPhoto 9 or later)
menu option to rebuild the library.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

AVCHD wont open with Quicktime player

I'm using the sony handy cam. Plugged it into the computer and tried selecting all four options on the camcorder (USB connect... etc.) two of them came up with a file AVCHD. I clicked on it and it opened a new window that appeared to be loading, and then a pop up came and said cannot open, with a exclamation point with quicktime app photo. I need to import some videos in imovie so please help. thanks

IPhoto movie wont open

I recently synced my Sony Cyber-Shot digital camera to my iPhoto library. The 231 photos included one video that I wanted to send to iMovie to edit. When I try exporting the movie I leave the original format and iMovie can't recognize it when I try to import it. The end of the file name says MPG I don't know if that if the wrong format for iMovie. If so how do I change it to a mp4 file? I have tried using Handbrake but it doesn't recognize the file as a valid source.

MPEG Streamclip (free) can convert your MPEG-1 files to DV Stream for use in iMovie.

Why are the videos sent from my daughter's iPhone 4 to my 4S in 3gp format? i need to drag to desktop - open with QuickTime - convert - reimport into iPhoto.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

1. Try Right mouse click iTunes icon and select "Run as Administrator". Does it open now?
2. If not, check if this file APSDaemon.exe is the problem here.
Close your iTunes.
Press Ctrl-Alt-Del key and choose Task Manager. In the "Processes" Tab, select the file APSDaemon.exe and click End Prosses button, then close the task manager window.
Now open itunes and see if it is working?
If that works, to prevent having to do the same process everytime you restart Windows, go to. START button, type in
MSCONFIG
Hit ENTER
Click STARTUP Tab, Uncheck "Apple Push", click OK.
Restart Windows.
3. If step 2 fails, refer to following article to remove SC files:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2363
4. If step 3 fails, repair your Quicktime. START / CONTROL PANEL / PROGRAMS N FEATURES / hightlight QUICKTIME and click REPAIR.

IPhoto won't open with the new Mac update

I just installed the new update for my desktop mac. iPhoto now wont open and there is a big circle with a line through it over the icon. When I try to open this application it says "you can not open iphoto because it is not supported on this type of mac" I have had my mac for over 2 years and use iPhoto everyday. Any help?

iPhoto versions older than 9.5.1 are incompatible with Mavericks. Version 9 or later should be eligible for a free upgrade to the current version in the App Store. Versions older than 9 will need a paid upgrade.

HT4623 yahoo mail wont open with i0s6

YAHOO MAIL WONT OPEN WITH NEW IOS6 ..

In 10.4, an internet audio file now opens with Quicktime?

Many thanks in advance for your attention.
When I was using 10.3 (and before), when clicking on an audio file on the internet, RealPlayer 9 automatically opened.
One could see the % of the file being downloaded and then (quickly), one would automatically hear the audio clip.
Most often, I am talking about audio clips available on NPR (National Public Radio).
Since I have installed 10.4 (now at 10.4.3), when I click on the same audio file, now Quicktime opens instead. And then nothing happens. Quicktime opens, a Quicktime Player is seen, but I hear nothing and nothing tells me whether the audio file is being downloaded, is ready to be listened to, or anything.
With Quicktime 7, is RealPlayer now supposedly superfluous?
- Ross

Many thanks QuickTimeKirk,
But think I need more step-by-step directions.
1. I have RealPlayer (9) already.
2. MIME settings in QuickTime Preference Pane. Set it to use RealPlayer for the Format .SMIL How?
3. In the QuickTime Preference Pane, there is a box for .SMIL, one box only, under "Miscellaneous." It IS unchecked already. But NPR still opens with QuickTime.
4. By "Change your Mac to use Real Player to open .SMIL files - ." I assume you mean, I will be on NPR, download a QT file and then try to change it to a RealPlayer file under "Get Info?"

There's a glitch somewhere. iphoto just wont open. upgraded to yosemite and downloaded iPhoto upgrader and it doesn't work, just keeps telling me to upgrade when I did already or quit, so no way to do photos on this brand new mac. that's a pity!!

You need to have iPhoto 11 v9.6 (which you can get from the App Store) to use iPhoto on Yosemite. If you already have iPhoto 11 then the update is free. Otherwise it's a purchase.

IPhoto will not open with pictures when I click on the icon. It does show that it is open on top toolbar. What happened to my photos?

Did you run any updaters recently, i.e. like just before this happened? Try this first fix: make a duplicate copy of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file,, Cache.dbt, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences..

Youtube videos only open with quicktime--small screen/no audio. Flash works with Safari, not Firefox.

I've updated flash, reset Firefox, restarted Mac. Youtube videos will not load with Flash. They open with Quicktime in a 1x2 inch box of low res images with no audio.

Open up your preferences/Options and open up applications. From here check the preferences for youtube files. In about:permissions you can check the preferences for youtube.com as well.

IPhoto does not open with new Mt Lion

Just installed Mt Lion and cannot open iPhoto. Purchased iPhoto Library Manager and can add new photos and have my old library rebuilt but still cannot open iPhoto. This is the response I get when tried "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable". In iPhoto library manager iPhoto will not open with the option/command key pressed. Could not rebuild/open it in Time Machine. Suggestions?

applesRnice
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Some commands have suddenly stopped working, e.g.; move to, open with now give no list of options

in pnotoshsop CC some commands have suddenly stopped working e.g.; move to, open with provide no list of options

If and when I finally manage to open it, as soon as I click on a movie to watch, the message "itunes has stopped working" comes up.
