I cant play any movie on my itunes 10.5.2.11 for windows

i cant play any movie on my itunes 10.5.2.11 for windows even the .mov files ?? i cant also drag any videos to the liberary .. just music ..whats wrong??

The supported formats are listed on Apple's iPad webpage -> http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
So, it would have to be in one of those formats. It can be a little confusing because the extension doesn't always tell you the codec that the video inside that file needs. You'll probably have to transcode the video with some other application or recreate it yourself.

How to play quicktime .mov files on iphone

I would like to be able to play quicktime (.mov) files on my iphone4s but I get a message that my file cannot be played on this iphone.
I created the file in keynote, exported it to a quicktime movie with the manual advance option.
My goal is to be able to use iphone to connect to a projector with a iphone to vga adapter and thus project my presentations from the iphone.
But I cannot import import it using itunes to the iphone.
Wondering if there is an app that plays quick time movies or some other option.
The reason I cannot export from keynote is that it does not give the option for manual advance.
It only provides a fixed time option.
Appreciate any help
thank you
jac

The movie/video must be in an iPhone compatible format.

HT3523 I can play an .mov file but cannot open it to move it to another drive/disc/etc. When we try to open it, we get a message that says "The movie file for "beanmine.mov" cannot be found. Without this file, the movie cannot play properly."

We can play a .mov file (a full-length film created in final cut pro) but cannot actually open it in QuickTime. We get the error message saying that a file is missing, and the movie can't play properly without the file. The thing is, we can play the film, we just can't open it to move it to another drive. Help?
Also, can the lost file (which was deleted) be recovered from a Mac HD or an external hard drive?

Sounds like you created a "Reference" file here. I.e., a "Reference" file is a file that tells the player how to play the data contained in a "Resource" file. When you try to open the "Reference" file in the QT Player app, the first thing the player does is check to see if the "Resource" data file is is still available where it is supposed to be. (I.e., moving/deleting the resource file or moving reference file without moving the resource file to maintain the relative path between the two will generate the error message you mentioned.)
Also, can the lost file (which was deleted) be recovered from a Mac HD or an external hard drive?
That depends. Deleting a file does not actually erase the data immediately. Instead, the operating system just tells the system directory that the space containing the movie data is available for reuse if/when needed. As time passes, the chance that some of the data sectors will be re-written by other data continuously increases. To restore the file normally requires use of a special utility that both locates and restores all of the linked sectors containing the "deleted" movie data in their correct order. Other methods of restoring files would depend on the software you routinely have active on your system. For instance, do you use "TimeMachine?" or orther software that automatically backs up your data periodically? If so, then follow the instructions for your particular application to recover a deleted file.

I can no longer play quicktime mov files from a canon firestore

I can no longer play quicktime mov files from a canon firestore from an HDV camera that play on other macs and play in vlc. It happened all of a sudden. Files that I could play before no longer play. It seems to be something wrong with the quicktime codec management because the files do not play in premiere and final cut pro. In FCP it says: File Error: 1 File(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown. These files work on other computers. I have four drives and it doesnt matter which file i attempt to open on each drive, these files are unreadable on this system. Please help. Possible issues might be a corrupted index, but i dont understand how that can go across four different drives.

Apple kindly updated Quicktime and rendered Firestore files unplayable. I think a recent update of iTunes was the culprit.
Solutions: What I did. Wipe the system disc. Re-install Snow Leopard. Re-install FCP7. Don't update Quicktime or iTunes to anything after Jun 2011. QT v7.6.6 is the last good version. That'll get your files back.
A colleague tried a different approach. For this you need a pre-July 2011 version of the file QuickTimeComponents.component. It is in the system/library/QuickTime folder. Delete your current one and drop in an old one.
However if you're working with Final Cut X, I think you screwed until Focus and Apple work something out. My address is on my contacts page at teevideousadotcom if you need any further help.

Playing a .mov file on ipad

Hello,
I cannot open/play a .mov file from my dropbox on my ipad. Message <<file type is not currently supported>>. I made the movie with imovie and it works fine on my computer. I am also capable of using video in the photo center. How come I cannot open it from dropbox? Is there another way to send the video to my ipad and save it there.
thanks!!!

Hi loliza,
If you are having issues opening a .mov file directly from Dropbox, you may be able to sync it to your iPad from iTunes. You can also verify that the file plays directly in iTunes, and/or see if it may be necessary to convert/create an iPad-specific version. You may find the following articles helpful:

Playing AVI movie files??

Help. I have 3 Macs: G4 Flat Panel, Imac G5- which play AVI movie files just fine. Mac Mini (specs below) which does not. Been at it for hours. The two older ones are non-intel, the mini is intel, this is the only difference I can see. I have the same software and plug-ins installed; (quicktime pro, flip for mac, windows media player, divx plug-in, xvid) All of them are running 10.4.11. When I put in a movie encoded in AVI in the mini I get a prompt that says roughly 'additional software plugin might be needed', can't think of anything else to do. Any info appreciated. Thank you.

If anyone else has this problem with an intel based mac here is link that solved my problem.

Cannot Play .DAT Movie Files in Real Player/Java Media Player

Hi,
I wanted to play some movie files in Solaris 10 (Was curious if the movie might be rendered more crisply in Solaris than Windows :) ) but found that .DAT files are not played in Java Media Player.
So I downloaded the Real Player for Solaris 10 x86 (The bin file which is a self executable installer). Now Real Player plays mp3 songs without a problem, just like Java Media Player, but it does not play any movies with a .DAT extension.
I thought may be I need to download a small patch and hence googled a bit, but could not find anything. So googled again to find if there was some work around, but could not come up with anything.
Has someone faced a similar problem? If anyone could help me with this, I would be really thankful.
P.S: I have boasted to my friends how good Solaris 10 is and if I get the .DAT movies working in Solaris 10, they will surely think of getting it installed on their comps cause it pretty much does everything else !!

That application is in the Applications -> Utilities Folder.
Change the popup menu under "Properties for" to Apple logo Built-in Output. And change the Source to Internal Speakers, and format to 44100.0 Hz with the downward pointing triangle next to the Hz rating.

Why can't I open/play my movie files after I have downloaded them from my camera? Pictures open fine.

What system and iPhoto version are you running and do you have Qjuicktime Player 7 installed. It would be in the Applications or Applications/Utilities folder.

XP hangs when I try to play a .mov file

Windows XP consistently hangs when I try to play a .mov file using QuickTime 7.4.1. There is no way to regain control of the system without powering off the computer. I've seen a number of postings indicating that people who have RAID disk systems are having similar problems, but I have an ordinary EIDE drive. Also, my .mov files are typically small (less than 40 MB). Device manager shows that all devices are working, and I've made sure that I have the latest graphics and sound drivers installed. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Quicktime won't play my .mov files since I upgraded to Mavericks.

Quicktime won't play my .mov files, even those from an iPhone, since I installed Mavericks. "Tell Me More" doesn't tell me anything about a solution. Any suggestions?

What do I do?
Frankly, if you have deleted the original movie clips from your camera/camcorder and iPhoto, then it sounds as if you are up the proverbial creek without a paddle and there is nothing further that you can do.
Some facts:
For some reason, the movieclips are awful small (13-30 KB).
640 x 480
Codecs: H.264, AAC
While these facts are of little value without file duration information, as you yourself have already noted, the file sizes quoted are extremely small. A typical VGA H.264/AAC file of reasonable quality would normally have a combined total data rate in the 700 to 1,700 Kbps range depending on specific settings, profile, and level of the encoding software and could be even higher or lower depending on the quality levels required. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that files in the 13 to 30 KB range only contain 104 to 240 Kbs and either have durations measured in fractions of seconds or do not actually contain enough data to be played. (E.g., the video data may be missing or the file is corrupted.) Thus, it is most likely that something was wrong with the workflow used to "export" your files to the external drive and when you ignored the fact that the files were not playing correctly, you closed the door on anything that you could do when you deleted the source files. (I.e., the normal workflow here is to copy the entire iPhoto library to the external drive, switch libraries, confirm the new library is working properly and only then delete the boot drive copy of the iPhoto library.)
OBS: When I try to convert the files into something else (AVI, MP4 whatever) either it comes with an error, nothing happens or the converted file wont open. This happens with various convert-programs.
If the data in the files is missing, then there is nothing to be converted by any application.

Did you export the iMovie project to a movie file i.e. .MOV file?
You said you burned the project to a DVD. A PC will not be able to open an iMovie project.

Playing 1080p movie files

Hi
I have a 1080p mkv video file which i am trying to play on my iMac. it opens the file and i can hear the sound and then i get a error and it stops. i have ran 720p without a problem but wondering if 1080p was possible. i normally use vlc player. Any help would be much appreciated.

If the 720 files play, and the 1080 doesn't, it may be your 1 GB of RAM that is the problem.
Also, if you are opening the file from online, and letting it stream, are you waiting until enough of it is in place before starting to play it?
I'm not sure what an "mkv" video file is, and I'm not familiar with "vlc" player; but my Intel iMac has 4 GB of RAM, and I'm able to play 1080 movie files using QuickTime player.

HT3775 trying to play a .mov file

I am trying to play a .mov file that I transferred to my macbook from my camera. I have tried itunes, quicktime and VLC and can not get it to play. I thought .mov was supported by quicktime, does it need to be converted?

I have come to the conclusion that my memory card is the problem. Yet we were able to transfer all the footage from the card on to my other roommates pc with no problem.
You can reformat the SD card for OSX compatibility using Disk Utility. Either format it as FAT, for universal compatibility, or Mac Os Extended for OSX only compatibility. Note that all current data on the card will be deleted once it is reformatted.
