.MOV files not playing video???

I bought a new JVC GY-HM100U HD camera, this camera saves files in native Final Cut Pro .mov files. When I try to play them back on my Imac or 2 laptops with Quicktime I only get audio files to play.
I went down to Apple store and the files played on new Imac. I have newest QT application, I can't figure why they don't play video, ANY IDEAS???

To Apple Discussions!
Make sure you have the following installed:
Flip4Mac
VLC Media Player
Perian (AVI and FLV support)
The latest version of Adobe Flash Player Software
Also, don't forget to repair permissions & restart your computer after the installations.

  • .mov files not playing properly in Premiere Pro

    Hey!
    I'm new to setting up projects in Premiere, but I have the newest version (2014) of the software, and I'm having problems playing back files within the software. These are .mov files, taken on a Canon mark 3 primarily, and while some files play back fine, others black out the video or grab a random frame and hold it while the audio plays back smoothly. The clips play fine when I open in Quicktime.
    I assume this is is a codec problem or something? I have no idea about codecs. Please help! I really appreciate it.
    Thank you.

    I believe that those MOV files are using the H.264 CODEC. You will need to have that installed (comes with later versions of Apple's QT), but even then, might not work in PrPro 1.5. I just do not recall if it supported H.264.
    For a bit more background on file formats, this ARTICLE might be useful. For a bit more on CODEC's in general, this ARTICLE might be useful.
    Good luck, and hope that PrPro 1.5 does handle H.264.

  • .mov files not playing

    So I've transferred pictures and video from my iPhone 4s and 5 to my Windows based computer running Windows 7. I attempted to play the video's in WMP and it wouldn't play the .mov files. After a search, I downloaded QuickTime as the recommended player for .mov files. Now, the files open in QuickTime and display the video I'm about to play; however, when I play the video it plays then stops as if the video is only one frame. I used the movie inspector and it shows the following:
    Source: E:\iphoto\video0035.3gp
    Format: Photo - Jpeg, 583x1036, millions
    When I click on details for the video file this is what I see:
    Please help.

    Hello, your attached screenshot doesn't load so I can't see what's on it. Anyway, maybe converting .mov file that you can't play fine is a good choice to try. If you decided to have a try, you can start off with the free trial version of iorgsoft video converter.

  • .MOV files not playing in Quicktime or importing into iTunes

    I have .MOV files that were taken on my iPhone, imported into iTunes and then put in a folder outside of iTunes. Now they will not play in Quicktime. iTunes will not import them. Help!!!

    How can I tell that. I have several. I am also unable to view them in the finder window like I can other .m4v or .mov files.

  • Movie files not playing

    My movie files play fine with Quicktime in previous iPhoto. Now that I've upgraded they won't play. I double click the image but nothing happens. The movie camera icon is there along with the length of the clip. Also, I can't figure out how to display thumbnails of my events. I set the preferences how the help says to but still no thumbnails. Can anyone help, especially with the movie problem?

    What did you upgrade? The system, iPhoto? You need to supply us with some information about your setup, model, system version, iPhoto version, RAM, etc. Then we can tell more what might be the problem.
    A safe first attempt would be to make a backup of the library and rebuild it as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options. Launch iPhoto and try again.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • .mov files not showing video while using Quicktime Pro

    Hi:
    I'm trying to work with some .mov files that were created in DVCPRO HD format, which I understand is a Panasonic format. I've upgraded to Quicktime Pro 7.6.4 as instructed by the individual who created the .mov files. The problem is I get audio, but no video. I've also tried exporting these movie files to DV Stream and I get an error message that reads "qtKitErrorCatchAll(-8961)."
    Thanks for viewing this and for any help you can provide.
    Message was edited by: stever4960

    The file was made by someone using Final Cut Studio?
    A white playback means the codec used in the file is missing on the machine trying to view it.
    Ask them to send you a version exported using H.264 video codec.

  • .mov files not playing on windows machine

    I'm trying to play movies on a windows machine and an error msg pops up telling me i need to install components. I've saved these movies as .mov on my mac and have had no problems playing these on Quicktime (and Perian) on my mac. How can i play these on the windows machine?

    You'll have to find out what codecs are used. The .mov file is just a container.

  • Panasonic .MOV files only play audio no video in Premiere Elements 11??? Not Working Help

    Panasonic .MOV files only play audio no video in Premiere Elements 11??? Not Working Help

    It all depends on the codec the file uses, Karli.
    What model of camcorder is this video coming from?
    Are you working on a Mac or a PC? Have you got the latest version of Quicktime, per the program requirements? When you started your project, did you select the settings for a DSLR at 720p? This is a vital step since it will activate the components your computer will need to work with many of these types of files.
    BY THE WAY, KARLI--
    PLEASE do not post the same question more than once on this forum! You've already got a thread going with this same question and several responses posted. It's very confusing when you post the same question a second time and start a whole new discussion.

  • Im trying to bring a movie from imovie to a pc using a flash drive, but the movie file (.mov) will not play on a pc

    Im trying to bring a movie from imovie to a pc using a flash drive, but the movie file (.mov) will not play on a pc. help!

    I would like to offer you some additional hair, but I've pulled mine out as well.  I have created a slideshow of my daughter's new house (a very nice place indeed) as a house-warming gift, took all the pix myself with a throw-away camera made into CD's, imported all of the photos, cropped and enhanced with Iaza online free photo editor, re-saved the new ones to a folder, imported the selected ones into iPhoto, had the best thematic photo printed in 8x10 format, bought the black DVD's, made the MPEG-4 movie as well as the suggested exportable to iPhone, created a folder with the slides, crafted a nice playlist in iTunes, merged it all in iPhoto, but cannot successfuly export it into iDVD. The technical documentation and writing for some of this stuff is sloppy and sometimes unintelligible. The instructional videos are incomplete. The One-on-One fellow was most helpful the other day and said Apple doesn't really have or support an functional DVD creation tool and suggested I choose one or another "app" at the "app store", but the reviews for the two major ones are shallow in depth and I haven't yet sprunf for the $20-$40 download so I can re-experience the difficult learning curve. The Macintoshs I once used were incredibly intuitive; the iMac requires some study. The slideshow I have is imperfect becauae it keeps reverting to custom slide-specific choices I have decided (several times) that I do not want, but it keeps slipping back into "Ken Burns" mode and some of the photos don't work in that mode because of their format. But I will settle for less-than-perfect if I can figure out the best way to export the MPEG-4 I have created into a Maxell DVD-R some time before my daughter's toddlers aged 4 and 2 get into kindergarten.

  • ITunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from an external drive (or streamed from other wireless devices). Any solution in sight?

    Video streaming of DRM movies, purchased from iTunes and other vendors, to any iOS device is not working.

    I am not sure if you really understand the issue at hand. Possibly that you are just scanning, not reading the whole text, or simply that you just want to close a thread with your last words or derail it for whatever strange reason. So far you have been more destructive than helpful, but again this could be ignorance at best.
    If you would have had the decency to read the entire thread you would have come to the conclusion that every manufacturer, I came across, has posted FAQ's to this issue but Apple. Find a short excerpt below:

Movies purchased from iTunes can be streamed to iOS 6 and iOS 7 devices which were authorized from remote storage (the video could be selected in Seagate Media App and would be played in a Safari browser), however in iOS 8 this has stopped working. A bug has been filed with Apple, however this functionality has not been restored. Therefore, DRM protected movies purchased on iTunes can no longer be played on devices running iOS 8.

Here are the remaining issues that we are aware of in the iOS 8 general release: • Video streaming of DRM movies (purchased from iTunes and other vendors): iTunes purchased videos and all DRM movies will not play on iOS 8 devices when streamed from AirStash (or streamed from other wireless devices). These movies are digitally protected and the AirStash app sends them to the Safari browser to play (which works for all prior iOS versions). However, in iOS 8, Safari will no longer allow DRM movies to play. These movies will play when the video is transferred to the iPhone/iPad and played in the Apple's Video App or the corresponding App from the vendor.

If this is the case and Apple will not address this issue or fix it since Apple believes that movies should be protected this way, you need to let the community know that movies are restricted this way.

    You cannot access files in the backup on your computer.
    Do you mean that you synced with iTunes and transferred your purchased videos and app documents? If that is what you mean, what videos are you talking about? If they are videos that you took with the iPad, they do not sync to iTunes. What files?
    What exactly are you trying to do? Details please.

  • Embedded QuickTime files not playing sound

    Is this a Yosemite issue? Not being able to play older QuickTime 7 files properly? I'm not sure what else the issue could be since everything seems to work fine in 10.7, 10.8, and 10.9 (unfortunately, I have been unable to test this in 10.10 or 10.10.1). Maybe I'm overcomplicating a simple issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Some very interesting observations which peaked my own curiosity due to on-again, off-again nature of the playback. I suspect this is either a "bug" or represents content handling changes that are currently in the process of  "evolving." Not a web site programmer so I used iWeb to run some contrast-comparison tests on how audio was handled by the plug-in software when directly accessing the content by its URL and via the page embed strategies. My results mirrored yours in that:
    1) All legacy codecs tested (A-Law, IMA, QDM2, QPV, and u-Law) in an MOV file container played correctly in the QT 7 player.
    2) The same files all played correctly when content was accessed by the plug-in software directly using the URL reference.
    3) None of the files containing legacy audio compression formats would play audio using the plug-in software using a web page embedding strategy.
    4) An MP4 (H.264/AAC) version of you original clip played correctly in all instances.
    5) Replacing your QDM2 audio track with an AAC audio track in the original MOV file allowed the file to play correctly in all instances.
    Based on these observations, I suspect the problem is in the way the software is currently programmed to handle (or rather ignore) the embedded strategy content. However, as you indicated, it is probably time to update your files. Not only did the H.264/AAC version of your original file play in all instances, but it used less than 45% of the file space/bandwidth for the settings I employed as compared to your original "0706_split_brain_red.mov" original file.

  • QuickTime stand alone not playing video, only audio

    Am running QuickTime stand alone on my PC with Windows XP Home 2002. For some reason the .mov files that were created with my digital camera will not play video (only audio) on this computer. The files seem to play fine on other computers. Have also found out that I can play downloand or streamed videos (only audio).
    Can't figure out why video won't play. Other video formats (.avi for example) play fine through Windows Player.
    Any insight? . . . anyone?

  • Safari does not play video off web pages

    When ever I try to view a .mov, or mpeg, the viewer freezes on the first image, but the audio track continues to play. The movies play fine on other computers using QTP and Safari. Funny thing, is that in Safari, the movies do not play, yet they play fine on other computers, using Safari (1.3.2). The videos play fine on my computer, though only in Firefox. They play fine in iTunes, also.
    So, why is this happening? Quicktime app not playing movies, now Safari not playing movies from websites (movies I have made)? There has to be a connection.
    I have set up another user, and the problem still exists. I have tried reinstalling Quicktime, but problem still exists.

    Good you isolated the problem.
    I suggest removing the Quicktime components from your system (leave the codecs in the /Library/Quicktime folder alone), including the Quicktime Player in the applications folder and plug-ins from the Internet Plug-ins Folder. Leave the preference file alone as it contains your QT Pro registration info. Then reinstall QT. "repair permissions" after the install.
