Mov files don't display in firefox

mov files do not display in Firefox....what's the fix?

Apologies Old Toad, but you appear to have misread the issue. This issue refers to Audio mov files, not movies.
To recap: in iWeb when you drag an "Audio mov" file to a page it will not appear in Firefox, or Chrome, or IE. Note: we are a business so we build sites for final release versions only--FF5 is not business class code and can not be used for for customer projects.
Here's the relevant line of code that shows up in the Page Source screen after publishing what turns out to be a blank page (we created a simple blank Test page containing only 1 audio file in mov format created in QT Pro):
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
writeMovie1();
--></script>
You can see by inspection that the writeMovie1(); command is within an ignore statement so the browser will not execute it. That is why the audio controls do not show and why the page is blank.
Here is a shot of the iWeb layout page:
In FF, Chrome, IE, the controls will not render because the command is being ignored by the browser--a bug in iWeb. In Safari, it  renders just fine but you will read in previous versions that Safari had the same issue. Hence, the "rigging" claim.
We'd appreciate your best shot at a resolution--and save the sarcasm...we can't do anything with that.

  • Swf don't display in Firefox

    I am building a website using DW 8.02. Simple HTML/CSS site,
    with a couple of small SWF animations inside. I have done this
    before without problems, but for some reason this time the SWF
    files do not appear in Firefox, like they are not even downloaded.
    Site works perfectly on IE and Opera.
    All the basics check out: code looks exactly like the one on
    sites that do work, Scripts folder is on the server, along with js.
    file...everything looks ok.
    Curious things: If I browse the site locally from my HD, SWF
    files diplay OK. Also, if I type the complete URL to the SWF file,
    it will display in FF.
    Any clues as to what the problem might be?

    Post a link to the page, please.

  • .mov file does not display on the web-site

    iWeb is easy to use but my simply link to a .mov file does not work. I am working on the Domain file on my Desktop so I can move it between computers, and it renames the media file in the inspector from name.mov to name-1.mov. In the end the site does not display the animation.

    Are you linking to this file so that it can be downloaded from your website?

  • .mov file won't display video

    I ran across a DXG digital video camera/camcorder/MP3 player/voice recorder, model 506v yesterday, on sale for $89.
    <http://www.dxgtechusa.com/index2.html>
    I couldn't resist.
    The manual says it can shoot video in both .avi and .mov format, and that the .avi is better quality. Since I use a Mac, and prefer the .mov format I shot a brief scene on my deck in .avi format, then switched to .mov, and shot the same scene. In the little camcorder window, both played back with video and audio. I then imported them into my laptop, and found to my surprise that-
    1) the .mov (QT) file opens to a white video screen and you can hear the audio (This is not yet in iMovie/FCP) In other words, I got
    audio but no video visible. It's 'there', because when you ask QT to 'show
    movie properties', it shows a video MPEG 4 -- you just can't 'see' it.
    2) the .avi file opens as expected, both video and audio displayed, though it does still need 'conversion' to get the sound in iMovie/FCPro.
    Why, pray tell, would the .mov format not work?
    Hal
    Here is the 'movie info' for two of the files, one .avi, one .mov:
    MPEG0001.AVI
    Format: XVID Decoder, 640 x 480, Millions '.mp2', Mono, 44.100 kHz
    FPS: 30
    Data Size: 9.32MB
    Data Rate: 4648.66 kbits/sec
    MPEG0002.MOV
    Format: Apple MPEG4 Decompressor, 640 X 480, Millions
    Microsoft ADPCM, Mono, 44.100 kHz
    FPS: 30
    Data size: 9.65 MB
    Data Rate: 4702.07 kbits/sec
    PowerMac G4 -dual 800, MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  
    PowerMac G4, dual 800-MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  
    PowerMac G4, dual 800-MacBookPro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    FYI:
    I tried VLC, and it worked - in that it opened both the video and audio, but I couldn't figure out how to save it using VLC in a format that would work in QT/iMovie.
    I then decided to conduct an experiment, a very 'scientific' experiment: I went to Version Tracker, and got a list of video converters, then using the criteria of 'at least' four stars , and 'cheap' -- either free or shareware -- I download these three:
    EASYWMV<http://www.easywma.com/wmv/>
    iSquint<http://www.isquint.org/>
    DivX<www.divx.com>
    The first one, EasyWMV worked: it converted the .mov file to a .mp4 file, which opens both audio and video in QT, and imports into iMovie.
    The other two didn't work, in that they couldn't/didn't display the video.
    The EasyWMV only converts 1 minutes of video for the free version: for $15, you can get the full featured version.
    Since there is no appreciable improvement, in using a .mov format vice the .avi file, I'll probably stick with the .avi file format, and use MPEGStreamClip to do the conversion.
    That being said, I'm still curious: I'd like to know why QT doesn't open the .mov (which I think of as a QT format) file? Presumably it doesn't have the proper 'codex'?

  • .DV and .MOV files don't play smoothly in the Final Cut Express viewer

    Hi,
    I bought Final Cut Express 4.0 yesterday, so I have no experience with it. I only used iMovies HD 6.0.3 a little before.
    Problem:
    When I import my .MOV and .DV files into FCE 4.0, then try to watch them in the viewer they don't play smoothly. The sound is fine, but the video is not smooth, it plays in stops and starts.
    Just to see, I tried importing a .FLV file and it plays just fine in the viewer, both audio and video runs smoothly with no 'stop starting'
    I experimented with importing different file sizes of .DV and .MOV, from 3GB to a few MB even and even very small clips of a few KB. But regardless of the size I always have this problem of them not running smoothly in the viewer.
    One of the .MOV files I tried to import was a reference file, and I later read in the manual that FCE may only recognise the original file. But I have the same problem even with the Original file and other self contained files that have been copied from the original. So it doesnt seem to just a problem with reference files.
    Any idea what the problem might be?
    Is it something to do with how I have FCE set up?
    Or is it that the .MOV and .DV files are not being properly imported and is this why they are not running smoothly in the viewer?
    I'm using a MacBook with 10.4.11 operating system, which the guys at my local Apple store said would be fine for using FCE 4.0.
    Hope someone can help,
    Ian.

    Look at item properties for the .mov and .dv files. What exactly does it say they are? What drive are they playing back from? Make sure the contents of the viewer are set to fit to window in the View popup at the top of the viewer.

  • MOV files don't play on version 10.5

    I just downloaded the newest 10.5 QuickTime on my PC. When i attemot to play a .mov file, i get a message box saying "Realplayer need to download new software to play this clip" when i click OK, it says "you must have quicktime installed on your computer to play this file.
    Well, it is installed! What's happening?
    And i did restArt my PC. sAME THING

    10.5 is the version number of Real Player.
    Real Player can open and play most QuickTime formats but it must use an installed version to do so.
    The question must be "why isn't Real Player finding my QuickTime install?" and I don't have an answer for that.
    They should just allow QuickTime formats be opened using QuickTime (not Real) and Real formats (.ra or .rm and some .smil files) be opened in Real Player.

  • .mov-files don't play well

    Since my friend upgraded his iMac he can't play .mov-files recorded earlier on his older Mac. The picture is good but there isn't any sound. He updated to the latest version of QuickTime 7 (Standard version). The same CD plays well on my Mac-G4 with QuickTime 7 (Pro version). Is there anyone out there that can help?
    Thank you very much for the assistance.
    Daan

    Dear QuickTimeKirk
    My friend has QuickTime Pro 7 since tonight, but the .mov-files won't play. The picture is perfect but no sound. The codec is MPEG1 muxed. The only difference is the type of Macintosh. His type is iMac with Intel processor. Mine is a G4.
    Please send me some suggestion about solving the problem if possible.
    Many greetings, Daan

  • FLV Files Don't Display in FlashHelp

    Greetings:
    The FlashHelp topic seems to be taking a nap, so I will post
    this here. I have inserted a FLV video in a Captivate 3.0.1
    project, it comes out fine, I can view the output in IE, Firefox,
    and Chrome without any issue. Importing this into RoboHelp 7, the
    video does not display in the Preview mode, nor does it display
    when published to FlashHelp in any of the three browsers. The
    opening screen displays, but does not respond to the skin controls
    or click boxes. Other Captivate projects work just fine, just the
    ones with the FLV videos have the problem. I have tried inserting
    the skin.swf, the project.swf, and the raw .flv file. No go with
    any of these.
    I have tried to insert all of the Captivate output files
    (.js, .flv, .htm, two or three .swf) into the topic Baggage File
    (which seems unnecessary, RoboHelp should figure this out when
    importing from its sister program) with no luck. Any ideas, or does
    this procedure just not work for some undocumented reason?
    Thanks

  • Quicktime MOV files don't play in Safari. Solutions?

    In most cases, when I click to play an MOV video file embedded on a website, I just get the little quicktime symbol with the question mark overtop of it. I then have to open firefox to view the video.
    It's rather shameful that Apple's Safari can't run it's own video files.
    I am running Snow Leopard with Safari 5.0.1., so I'm up to date.
    Any solutions?

    It is odd. And so is the complete thread-jacking by someone who's posted over 32k times. Don't most people who've been around that long refuse to answer unrelated questions once a topic has been established? Seems to be pretty common practice among frequenters of forums. Even if the offending poster keeps at it, you don't have to keep answering in the thread.
    Seriously, if you don't have anything to contribute to the topic at hand and instead complain (repeatedly) about conflicting information stated in someone's profile, why waste your time, and the time of the person(s) in duress? (like me) They may get email notifications when somebody responds to the thread. "SWEET, maybe somebody has an answer for me.... oh no wait, it's just that guy complaining about my profile signature information." To respond only with "..they do on my machine, so something's amiss on yours" is obvious and pretty ineffective. Especially when you do it twice.
    32k+ posts in 5 years. That's nearly 18 per day. If you sleep 8 hours a night that's more than one for every hour you're awake.
    ~~~ In an attempt to get this back on track ~~~
    I have this problem too.
    I'm running 10.6.4 and Safari 5.0.2 - according to apple both up to date as of this writing. I've also got QT Pro 7.6.6 installed, don't know if others having this issue also have QT Pro installed. I also experience this exact problem on my workstation, a 2009 8-core MacPro, with the same versions of OSX, Safari, and QTPro. My wife's 13" MacPro has the same OSX and Safari versions, but no QT Pro, and she can view QT movies in Safari just fine on her machine. I refuse to get rid of QT Pro, and I don't really see why this would be the problem, but it's the only difference that occurs to me off the top of my head. I can't pinpoint a specific time this started, but if I had to guess it was after upgrading to Safari 5.
    Here's Hoping that this at least let's the original poster know that other people are indeed suffering from this, so that others might be able to chime in to further discuss and hopefully find a solution. I've sent feedback to Apple about this, and I'm going to run down to the local Apple shop to see if they have any ideas. I'll post again if I find anything further.

  • DNG files don't display in Preview or Finder but okay in LR5

    Virtually all of my DNGs from the last four years do not display properly when previewed in OSX's Finder or opened in the Preview app. Everything in Lightroom works just fine. I note that the "linear" option is off (seems to be the default) when I import from the SDHC card to LR. I have LR "Copy as DNG" and I apply nothing other than a renaming of the file (filename.date.dng).
    I've dumped the files in Library/Quicklook but that doesn't do anything.
    All the importing has been done with the latest version of ACR (Camera Raw 7.1 is the latest I have).
    When I use Quicklook (spacebar) in the Finder or open the file using Apple's Preview app, all I see is a large black rectangle sometimes with some "noise" appearing in the frame. Yet LR has no trouble and I can export as jpeg or tiff without any issue.
    I'm running 10.8.4 fully updated. I've dumped all the caches and cleaned everything using Onyx and restarted. Still not working.
    Any ideas? The only thing I've noticed is my older DNGs (which came from a Fuji S9100) are 12-bit (and I -can- see those files in Finder preview and the Preview app!) whereas the newer DNGs (from 2009 and newer) which were shot with my S100fs are 14-bit. All the newer DNGs have the problem.
    I've uploaded one of the "problem" images: http://www.adrive.com/public/6aMh4f/DSCF2743.dng
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Rob Cole wrote:
    I whole-heartedly agree that although the big print giveth, sometimes the small print taketh away, DNG-wise.
    I certainly would not convert my raw files to dng then throw away the originals. If Adobe provided a "revert from DNG" function, I'd recommend people give DNG a try (and not toss the originals), but as it stands:
    (Adobe-converted) DNGs: great for limited, known, (usually Adobe-only) environments, but not for wholesale conversion of raws, not yet anyway (unless you don't mind locking yourself into an Adobe-only (or Adobe-mostly) software environment, in order to support "the cause").
    PS - In my opinion, you may be going a little too far with this one:

    "Adobe-only environments". Nope, sorry; that doesn't exist. Adobe makes software that runs on OSX and Windows.
    I will bet $50 that buried in the OSX Lightroom code is reliance upon Quicktime. Adobe could rectify this. It's a lack of will, not technology.
    I can be angry and upset but I will still use Lightroom because, in spite of this setback, LR produces DNGs that are smaller than TIFF and lossless PNG and produces better photos easier than other apps (including Aperture).
    ...and yes, I still believe Adobe's marketing is either fraudulent or just doesn't understand the technology.

  • Excel & Word file don't display text after 10.6.4 update

    Installed 10.6.4 update last week on an iMac and the cells within my excel sheets went blank. The data is still there but do not show up on screen. Tried several variation of start up and even reinstalled Office only for problem to exist still. New documents will display text but most of my existing office documents appear blank.
    So... Today I reinstalled snow leopard and my text was back & displaying until I ran the OS updates. Every thing was fine until 10.6.4 and poof!!! there went my text in office. This glitch even effects some existing word documents. Graphic, images and pdf's don't seem to be effected. Any body else having this problem?
    Just dumb founded....

    I've been experiencing the same issue. I upgraded to 10.6.4 and I lost several fonts. The interesting thing is I also lost several power point images I had created. Shapes and lines were missing even though they did not involve the offending fonts, at least not directly. There was text elsewhere in the image that used it. Why this should obliterate the rest of the images I don't know.
    The three offending Fonts for me were:
    1) Times New Roman
    2) Arial
    3) Brush Script MT
    Anywho, I managed to fix this on my machine so I'm posting how I did it here. I'm not so sure as to the why, but here it goes.
    On my machine I have 4 font folders
    1) -> System -> Library -> Fonts
    2) -> Library -> Fonts
    3) -> Users -> Me -> Library -> Fonts
    4) -> Applications -> Office X -> Office -> Fonts (yes, I'm still running Office X from 2000)
    Inside of the Font Book application, it was kind enough to point out I had duplicate fonts. Some of these were the fonts in question and others caused me no troubles. Go figure. Anyway, disabling one or the other of the duplicate fonts did not fix the problem.
    Here's what did, though. In my case the duplicate fonts existed in the second of the font directories above (henceforth referred to as Font2) and the third of the font directories listed above (Font3). I browsed to these directories and copied the fonts to my desktop to have a back up. Back in Font Book, I told it to remove each instance of the Arial and Times New Roman fonts that would not display correctly in Excel (for the moment, I left Brush Script MT alone, kind of like a control)
    Now at this point there were no Arial or Times New Roman fonts in my Font Book. Turns out they were removed from Font1, Font2 and Font3, so good thing I have a backup.
    1) Opened up Excel. It did its font menu optimization thing and sure enough, I couldn't see anything.
    2) I close Excel.
    3) I double clicked on Times New Roman that I had in Font4. Font Book opened it and I chose to install it. It put it in my Font3 directory.
    4) I opened up Excel. It did its font menu optimization thing. Suddenly I can see Times New Roman again!
    5) I close Excel.
    6) I double click on the Arial Font from my Font4 directory. Font Book opens it and I install it to my Font3 directory.
    7) I open Excel, it does its font menu optimization thing and suddenly I can see Arial!
    8) I close Excel.
    Now at this point I'm wondering if my old font files got corrupted and because I was installing using the ones from my Font4 directory (which avoids the system directly) I was getting them back. So to test, I told Font Book to remove Times New Roman again, I go through the test of opening and confirming in Excel, and then I install the Times New Roman font from my desktop that I had copied out of the Font2 directory. Everything works fine in Excel. So it's not the file that was bad.
    I was also wondering if I needed to remove all instances of the fonts or if just one was causing the trouble. So I go back to Font Book and remove the instance of Brush Script MT that was in my Font3 directory. When I opened Excel I still couldn't see anything.
    I reinstalled the copy of Brush Script MT from the desktop and tried removing the other instance of the font, the one from the Font2 Directory. Excel still shows nothing. I then reinstall the associated font file from the desktop. Excel still doesn't like me.
    Finally, I removed all instances of Brush Script MT and installed at random one of them from the desktop. Suddenly Excel likes it.
    So I don't know what the problem was, maybe an associated was bad, but either way the only way I could get my fonts back was to remove all instances of the bad fonts from Font Book and then install the font again.
    In between removing and installing I would go into Excel where it would refresh its Font list at startup. Not sure if this had anything to do with it either.
    All my fonts now display correctly and all my powerpoint drawn images show up as well. I hope this helps someone else!

  • PDF files don't display or save from websites

    I am unable to now download and save a PDF file from a website.  I get either a blank window when I click on the PDF file link, or a message during the attempt to save that reads "The document “filename.pdf” could not be exported as “filename.pdf”."  I am also unable to print the file from a website or save as a PDF.
    This problem is a recent development, occurring in both OS X 10.7.3 and 10.7.4 on my MacBook.  It occurs in both Safari 5.1.6 and Firefox 4.0.1.  Since it occurs on more than one browser, I'm pointing towards the OS. I use Adobe Reader 10.1.3.
    The problem does not occur on my MacBook Pro using OS X 10.6.8, using an older version of Safari.
    I just updated from X 10.7.3 to 10.7.4 but with no results.  I uninstalled Reader and reinstalled.  Same results.  Reader opens other PDF files on my hard drive with no difficulty.
    Suggestions?

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
