Itunes/quicktime crashes when trying to play video podcasts and 3GP files

Hello all,
I've searched these forums and didn't see anything that might help me, so if know of any solutions posted already, please let me know. I have an HP laptop(AMD Turion 64 X2 2.0 GB processor, 2 GB or RAM) running Windows Vista Home Premium. I used to be able to play 3GP files at one time with Quicktime, but now I cannot. Then, the other day I tried to play a video podcast and it starts to play, then says, "Itunes has stopped working". Quicktime does the same thing with 3GP files. This was before my update to Itunes 8.0. It happpened with Itunes 7.5.11.1 or whatever the last version was. It obviously does the same thing with Itunes 8. I've tried completely uninstalling Itunes and quicktime, then reinstalling them both and I still have the same problem. Just a note: I tried playing the video podcast via Windows Media Playey, and it worked fine, except for no audio(I don't think WMP has AAC support) so I think something is conflicting between Itunes and my computer. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • HELP!!! itunes keeps crashing when trying to play video - "decoder.altivec"

    I have a g5 imac and everytime I try to preview a video on itunes it crashes.
    this is what the crash log states:

    I have the latest itunes and even downloaded the latest QT just in case as well.
    Everytime I try to preview a movie in the iteunes store it cause itunes to crash and it gives the same crash report as shown above.
    Itunes-store even billed me for a U2 video that I can't even watch, nor find in my itunes library.

  • Itunes crashes when trying to play videos

    My itunes will not play any video (movies, music videos, previews in itunes, etc).  It crashes and shuts down itunes every time i try.  any ideas or help?  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of itunes already.  They will play in quicktime, just not in itunes.  They movies i have in itunes are a mix of digital downloads and movies bought from itunes store.  They worked a few deays ago, and after the new software update, they no longer will.

    It didn't work for me. I open itunes 10.7 and try to play Schindler's List HD which is an iTunes digital download I got when I purchased the movie and voila! iTunes crashes harder than a NASCAR driver trying to close the distance. I can't play this movie in VLC, DIVX, Windows Media Player, iTunes, nothing. I also have Bourne Legacy HD with same issues. Can't play movies that are HD. Any help here would be great.

  • ITunes 10.6 crashes when trying to play video full screen

    I haven't seen this particular issue among others' comments so…
    When switching from the normal video window to full screen while watching a podcast in my iTunes library, the program immediately crashes.  I've tried several different podcast, starting with the smaller video window, then trying to expand using the opposing diagonal arrows symbol in the bottom right corner.  The result has been the same.  As soon as I click on that the window screen goes black, and iTunes shuts down.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro 4,1 using OS 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6 (40).
    Meanwhile, hope someone is working on the problem with the clickable scroll bars being inoperable.

    Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • Front Row Crashing when Trying tpo play video

    I just picked up m new iMac 20" and have been trying to play my videos on Front row.
    I have tried every category - they are all authorized - but still, before even a second of video play s - Frontrow crashes. Please help!

    There are several steps. Note that this is invading your main System folder which can be dangerous. You should have a complete backup of all your files before poking around like this!
    1. Delete Front Row (and Front Row only) from this path by dragging it to the Trash:
    /System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app
    Then empty your Trash.
    2. Delete the records that indicate Front Row has already been installed by deleting the receipts. If you've installed the 1.3 update, there will be two files to delete in this path:
    /Library/Receipts/FrontRow.pkg
    /Library/Receipts/FrontRowUpdate1.3.pkg
    Drag both of those files to the Trash and empty it.
    3. Put in your Mac OS X install DVD (you don't have to boot from it) and run the "Install Bundled Software Only" installer. At the "Install Type" window, there should be a "customize" button. Click on that and uncheck every other option besides Front Row. The continue and finish installing Front Row only.
    4. Run the Software Update and your computer should recognize you need the Front Row 1.3 update. Install the update. Now might be a good time to restart.
    That should completely replace Front Row and update it to the current version (which is needed if you're using the up-to-date version of iTunes and QuickTime).

  • ITunes Stops Responding When Trying To Play Video - Windows 7 64bit

    Ok, I've been getting my new Win7 box up and going. Everything is working great with the exception of iTunes.
    Setting up iTunes / Quicktime is quick and easy. After a single reboot then launching iTunes and trying to play any video results in "iTunes has stopped responding". Then it shuts down.
    If I either, re-install iTunes or Quicktime. Video works again, until I reboot. Then I end up with the same error message "iTunes has stopped responding".
    I've ran the test over and over, probably a dozen times. I re-install and all works again, until I reboot. And yes, I scanned for viruses, I've check and rechecked settings.
    Can anyone help!? I really want to move everything from my XP machine to Win7, but this one thing keeps holding me up.

    PLEASE!! ANYONE! No one has any ideas?

  • ITunes locking up when trying to play videos

    Every time I try and play a movie in iTunes it locks up and freezes my computer. Any ideas why this might be happening? I have 384 mb of RAM and am using Windows XP this seems like it should be sufficiant according to apple's requirements. Please Help!

    What's the clock speed on your Vaio's processor? According to what little I can find on that model's specs, it may be only 1.13 GHz, while to play videos reliably in iTunes requires a processor speed of 1.5GHz or better.

  • ITunes suddenly crashes when trying to play purchased music

    Everything's been OK (other than iTunes randomly rebuilding my music library every week or so...) I download a song from the music store. It attempts to import it and crashes. I manually find the song and drop it into iTunes, it crashes. I won't even import it. I try to play ANY purchased music, it crashes. I can play non-purchased aac and mp3 files just fine. I'm running itunes 6.0.1

    Oh yeah, I forgot to say that i've also trashed my old iTunes and re-installed, and trashed the prefs.

  • Quicktime crashes when trying to export video

    I just upgraded to Quicktime Pro 7 (from Quicktime 7.1). Evertime I try to export a video (homemade avi) Quicktime crashes. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, but the problem still exists. The video was created with Pinnacle Studio version 9. Can anyone help?

    Often, issues such as you describe are caused by the Lr preferences file becoming corrupted. This can lead to something being embedded in the file that the encoder or the viewing application can't habdle. It's therefore worth either trashing or tempoarily relocating the Lr preference file. This page provides info on where the file can be found http://forums.adobe.com/thread/358041?tstart=0

  • Aperture crashes upon trying to play video. Exporting .AVI file wont play.

    Hi,
    I uploaded my holiday pictures and 4 videos into Aperture and when I try to play the videos I get pretty bad beachball with no playback of the video. When I export the file I am presented with a SAM_xxx.AVI file. (SAM from Samsung camera). I have tried to play the file with Quicktime, VLC & MPlayer X. I ran the 4 files through DivFix++ and I am given the error, "Input file is not .avi"
    Any thoughts as to whats going on? Aperture shows a thumbnail for the videos and VLC shows correct length but no playback.
    Thanks

    I have both an iPad and iPhone connected to my Mac. I disconnected both, then restarted my Mac and Safari. No improvement. Used Lion Recovery System to reload Lion. Interesting thing, Safari 5.1.7 was installed rather than Safari 6. This made me happy, as Safari 6 has been nothing but trouble for me. When I opened Safari, it took me back to apple.com, even though my homepage is yahoo.com. I was immediately confronted with the infamous Steve Jobs video, that has crashed my computer every time it's popped up on my screen. This time, however, it didn't crash ... I just got the spinning beachball for about 30 seconds, then the Quicktime thermometer at the bottom started moving and I was sure it was going to work. After the thermomter passed about one-fourth of the way over, the screen blanked and the Quicktime thermometer started all over again. This behavior persisted until I got tired of it and went to my home page. However, I can open Quicktime and watch videos again, even the YouTube ones that were crashing every time. Now I just have to figure out how to never let a Software Update stick me with Safari 6 ever again. If it does, I'm simply through with it and will make Firefox my default browser. Thank you so much for getting me this far. I will keep monitoring these discussions to see if Apple ever gets Safari 6 to the point that I'll give it another trial.

  • ITunes giving error when trying to play mp3 podcast file I created

    I'm testing a new podcast feed at the moment and I am unsure of the issue.
    The MP3 was created in Adobe Audition 3.0
    If I drag the mp3 directly into iTunes it plays it no problem.
    If I put the Podcast URL directly into a browser all of the info displays and I can download the file.
    But if I subscribe to the feed in iTunes, it does display all of the information etc and does list the podcast in the podcast section, but I get the error, "The File might be corrupted, or a file type that iTunes cannot play" yet it does play it if I drag the file into iTunes directly.
    Any advise please?

    Hi Michelle,
    i don't see which disk is used to create the fileshare. There isn't such a configuration.
    This is how the config looks like for the Cluster where it is not working:
    And this is the cluster where everything is working:
    The fileshare resource is usually created by the SQL Server Configuration Manager. This also happens in my case, but the problem is that it is immediately removed again without further specification of what the problem is.
    The SQL Server log is also not very helpful. The attempt is not registered in the server log. Just the retry is logged saying that the configuration might be inconsistent:
    2015-03-13 10:02:50.51 spid53      Error: 5596, Severity: 16, State: 2.
    2015-03-13 10:02:50.51 spid53      FILESTREAM feature configuration might be inconsistent.  To reset the configuration, use the sp_configure stored procedure.

  • ITunes shuts down when trying to play video

    My iTunes software shuts down when I try to play a video from my iTunes Library or from the iTunes Store site. I have backed up the library and have tried to reinstall iTunes, but when I did the entire library reappeared and the same problem exists. My Quicktime does work and iDVD, too, with home movies, other online streaming and DVDs, So I'm sure that the problem is with iTunes.

    I upgraded Quicktime and now it works.

  • Video Player crashing when trying to play videos

    I have some videos downloaded to my iPad. Some of them play fine. However a lot of them will not play - when I try to play them the app crashes. I have tried restarting my iPad, deleting the videos and re-downloading them, and closing everything to make sure nothing is going on in the background, but this doesn't work. My only other idea was to return it to factory settings, but I wondered if anyone had any other ideas so that this would not be necessary.
