Iweb 08 - vimeo movie won't play when site is live

Hello. Please can someone help with this. I built a site yesterday on iWeb 08. It includes a movie downloaded from Vimeo and dropped into a movie page in iWeb.
Everything's fine on the iWeb page but there is no movie on the 'live' site. Any ideas what I've done wrong. Is there a good link (for dummies!0 to show me how to do this? Many thanks.

Check your account folder on the hosting service to make sure the video got uploaded.
Or use the File ➙ Publish Entire Site menu option to upload all of the files again.

Video/Movie won't play when exported as a PDF.

Hello,
I am creating an interactive PDF using CS5 to display video work. Unfortunately, the video won't play when exported as an interactive PDF, I am just left with blank space. I find this very odd as it plays in preview and also when exported as a SWF but that file type is unsuitable for the project.
Initially when I exported it I got this message: "One or more of the interactive elements are clipped in ways the pdf files can't reproduce...." Obviously, I have ensured the file is resized correctly and also tried .mov, .mp4 and also .flv file types with no success. I have also checked the simple things like ensuring all the right boxes are ticked when I export.
This is not the first time I have embedded video but it is the first time without success despite following the same pattern. Any ideas as to why this would be and how to fix it?
Thank you,
Laura

Use Flv or f4v format, after you have placed video into your layout, make sure that you don´t scale or crop video frame at all.
(Whren you File > Place a video, you will have a loaded cursor with video icon. Click the empty spot on page with loaded cursor, don´t draw a rectangle or click on the top of some exisiting frame)
It´s important that you have your video in 100% encoded size in your layout. If you need to scale or crop it, load that video into Adobe Media Encoder and do it there, and re-encode the video to the correct size and shape aftrwards.
Adobe Media Encoder ships with InDesign.

My iphoto movies won't play when I double click them. ***?

Hi friends and holders of the light of communal knowledge. I recently noticed a glitch in iPhoto in that double clicking on movie files fails to elicit the once normal response of opening a play window and then allowing me to press play and enjoy the moment I videoed. Anyone know of a reason, fix, solution? Reaching out, thanking you all in advance.

Greetings,
This would be a good question for the iPhoto Forum: https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/iphoto
What version of iPhoto are your running?
If you drag the movie out to the desktop and then double-click the movie on the desktop, does it play?
Once you have the the movie on the desktop click on it once and then go to File > Get Info.
Change the "Open With" to Quicktime Player 7 and then click on "Change All"
See if this changes the behavior of iPhoto at all.
Cheers.

QTVR Movies won't play properly in iWeb

QuickTime VR panoramic movies won't play properly. Doesn't seem to matter what kind of iWeb page I use. The movies respond normally when opened with QuickTime Player. The seem to fail only when placed into iWeb.
First, there are no VR controls visible. What controls there are don't respond when clicked. Second, the mouse curson doesn't change when moved over the movie placeholder. Third, the only image within the movie placeholder is the first frame.
I tried several QTVR panorama movies with the same result. I also verified that none of the available movie controllers will function. I have already searched on QTVR in this forum and found none of the few suggestions offered to work.
Any new ideas?

We've recieved your file and got it to work in iWeb. Here's what to do:
As always, place a text box in iWeb the size of the dimentions of your QTVR movie. Put some text in the box something like "QTVRMOVIECODEHERE"
After Publishing your site locate your "QTVRMOVIECODEHERE" text and replace it with
<embed src="http://URLWhereYourFileis.mov" width="320" height="240"></embed>
Another way you can do it is store the QTVR file on your host. If you are using .mac you can store it in your sites folder or Web folder. From the sites folder the URL for your file would be homepage.mac.com/YourUserName/YourFolder(if any)/YourQTVRMovieName.mov
Then place a hyperlink to your files URL in your iWeb page.
Here is the working QTVR file in an iWeb page:

Or if you'd like you can you can hyperlink to http://iWebFAQ.com/QTVR/twofish.mov

IDVD autoplay movie won't play in DVD player

My IDVD movie won't play in a DVD player when created in autoplay mode. It plays fine on my computer both in preview and on my computer's DVD player program and it works fine if I create a menu and button, just not if I create it in autoplay mode. I've tried it on my work compter and three DVD players and it won't play in any of them. Can anyone help, please?

Hi Sue
Thanks for responding.
I used a 16x Maxwell DVD-R. The same kind of disc worked fine with the movie when I had a menu.
I'm afraid I don't know what a Patchburn is.

Hi JosefK:
Welcome to discussions.
Did you use a Data DVD by chance?
It needs to be a DVD-R with iMovie 4.
Are you using an external with Patchburn?

In OSX 10.9, Quicktime movies won't play

Plug-in not "visible" in list even though Quicktime is installed. In this OS, we cannot "reinstall" Quicktime because it's built into the OS. How can I get the QT videos to run inside Firefox?

You said that QuickTime movies won't play "inside Firefox". Do they play inside Safari or when you directly access a QuickTime Movie file that's been saved on your Mac ?
See the Firefox Support article, [[Use the QuickTime plugin to play audio and video]]. It has some test links and explains how to enable the QuickTime plugin in the Add-ons Manager, in case it's been disabled in Firefox.
Like you say, QuickTime is built into the operating system on Mac OS so if you can't enable the browser plugin in Firefox or if it's missing, your best bet would be a Mac forum such as https://discussions.apple.com/

Quicktime movies won't play on Apple Website

I formatted my HD and reinstalled Snow Leopard. Last night and this morning I was watching the videos on http://www.apple.com/business/theater/#activecorners?sr=hotnews.rss, but tnight when I went back there, the movies won't play, nor will any other movies on the entire website. All I get is a Quicktime Icon with a question mark in the middle of it. I have both Quicktime X and Quicktime Pro 7 installed, with Pro in the Utilities folder.

After loading the AppleMPEG2.Component into the Quicktime folder in the Library, everything started working again. I'm not sure if that's what made it start working again though.

ITunes movies won't play after backing up library

I recently ran out of hard drive space on my macbook pro so I decided to move my iTunes library to an external hard drive to make space. Since doing so the movies that I bought on Itunes won't play. Everything else is fine. The music plays but the TV shows and movies won't play. There was an error message the first time that I tried to play it but I have never seen it again and I didn't write it down. Something about a file missing. Has anyone successfully fixed a similar problem?

so I decided to move my iTunes library to an external hard drive to make space
I'm guessing you moved the /iTunes media/ folder to the external yourself?
There was an error message the first time that I tried to play it but I have never seen it again and I didn't write it down. Something about a file missing.
iTunes prefs - Reset warnings.
Double click a movie to play it.
When it comes up and asks if you want to locate it, click Yes, then go to /iTunes/iTunes media/Movies on the external and find the movie.

My movie won't play past two minutes and thirty-seven seconds. What do I do?

Hello Bdev15,
I would be concerned too if the songs I purchased from iTunes were not downloading to my iPhone. You have taken some great troubleshooting steps already, and thank you for providing the details of the steps you too. I have a few additional suggestions to get it downloaded to your iPhone.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted:
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads

If the songs still do not download, next I recommend downloading the songs when connected to another network. For example, if you are using the cellular network, you could switch to Wi-Fi, or you could try an alternate Wi-Fi network. Follow the steps in the section titled "iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch > Music" in the article below to download the songs:

If you are still not able to download the songs, you can report an issue with these purchases using the steps in this article:

ITunes rented movies won't play on my PC. "This movie required QuickTime which this version of iTunes doesn't include. So I downloaded QT but movies still won't play. HELP

iTunes rented movies won't play on my PC. "This movie required QuickTime which this version of iTunes doesn't include." So I downloaded QT 7 but movies still won't play. HELP Very frustrating.

Ok nw the rented film is on the iPad which won't play and when I looked at the Mac I was greeted with an error message saying that the film could nt be transferred because the file had already been transferred somewhere else! Thing is I can see it on theioad and the Mac still!
Obviously the film Kees checking where it as you can't watch it in two places at the same time. I can understand that but I knw it's not anywhere else.
The only thing I can think of is if when time machine backs it up it thinks it's being watched!
Any ideas anyone?

Audio won't play when I'm skimming through clips on iMovie

The audio of the clips I have on iMovie won't play when I'm skimming through them, but will play when I play the clips. I made sure the volume of every clip and on the computer works (it does) but this is getting really annoying. Can anyone please help me out?

To Reboot your computer, select /Shutdown... from the top menu. Wait a few seconds, then turn your computer back on with the on switch.
You don't really have to know what a swapfile is, but here is a simplified explanation.
Your computer comes with a processor (Intel 2.8 ghz in my case), memory (2GB in my case), and a hard drive (500GB in my case).
The processor is very fast. The memory holds the instructions and the data that the processor will work on next. Long term storage is kept on the hard drive, which is slower. Think of the following metaphor: You are sitting at a desk. You are the processor. Your desktop is the memory, which contains the stuff you are ready to act on. Stuff you have already acted on, or will not need until later, is in the drawers or in a file cabinet (the hard drive).
Let's say you are working in several applications at once: iMovie, Microsoft Word, iTunes, Calendar, and Safari. Each of these programs needs some of your memory to function, and to get stuff to the processor for action. If you add all the memory requirements up, it may be more than the 2GB of "real" memory that you have. Fortunately, OSX lets you use virtual memory, so your programs can pretend they have as much memory as they need. Your programs can address memory as if they had a whole bunch of memory all to themselves.
This is done through swapfiles. When there is more virtual memory than real memory, the programs and data that have been used least recently are swapped out to hard disk in a swapfile. This file is not the permanent storage. It is the temporary parking place for memory when the real memory is being used by another application.
So lets say you want to use iMovie. It might take up 1GB out of your 2GB. There is not room, so OSX looks around and sees that you haven't used iTunes in a while. So the itunes instructions and music about to be played is swapped our to a swapfile on the harddisk.
If you decide you want to listen to iTUnes, you will have to wait a few seconds as iTunes is swapped back in to real memory, and something else is swapped out.
This is a simple case. It can get more complicated.
But, as you run more and more programs, the real memory gets used up and there might be seven or eight swapfiles out on disk. At some point, OSX gets sluggish and has a hard time dealing with this. For example, if two large swapfiles needed to be paged in at the same time, there might not be room. Also, the real memory can get fragmented, and have open space, but the open space is not big enough to swap something in.
I run a free utility called Memory Stick that shows me how many swapfiles I currently have. If I am working on something critical in iMovie, and I notice that I have a lot of swapfiles, I will usually just reboot and start over with 1 swapfile. In doing this, I hope to avoid the spinning beach ball that happens when OSX can't handle it any more.
You don't really need to know this. OSX handles it for you. But understanding how it works can help you self-diagnose some problems from time to time.

Some of the songs I have downloaded onto i tunes won't play when I select it to do so. The error message I get is "The song could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" How can I get my songs to play?

Some of the songs I have downloaded into i tunes won't play when I select it to do so. The error message I get is "The song can not be used because the original file can not be found. Would you like to locate it?" When I select yes I'm sent to a screen that has my i tunes library listed. When I select the song in question I'm asked if I would like to open the song. When I select this option I get nothing. The songs I have downloaded must be somewhere because they are listed in my i tunes library and on the screen I've been sent to. I can't the songs to play however. This is not true of all of my songs but it is true of quite a few of them. Actually, one song is too many. How do I get my music to play that seems to be locked up somewhere in the computer?

Presuming they're on your computer, right click on them and then follow the prompts to locate hte file on your computer.

ITunes Error: Cannot play bought iTunes movie from one day to the other "The selected movie won't play on your display."

Hi,
just a few weeks ago I watched on my new iMac 5k Retina a long-ago-downloaded movie (iTunes content, HD, Billy Joel. Live at Shea Stadium). I had no issues watching it on the new wonderful display just a few weeks ago!
Today I wanted to resume the video and got the error "The selected movie won’t play on your display. This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).".
Actually the movie plays for a few seconds and then the movie window gets black and the error message appears. Restarting iTunes does not help. Restarting the Mac also not.
How can this be fixed?
Additionally I get since I moved from my old iMac to the new one the iTunes error "Do you want the application “iTunes.app” to accept incoming network connections?" every time I start iTunes.
