MOV Files stop working

Hello,
I'm working on some MOV files in CS4 and they will randomly stop working; my image is lost. Sometimes it does this when exporting as well; it will, to my suprise, pick clips and make them a blank screen. Please help!

Applescript create folder from filename and move file stopped working

Hi,
For a while I've used this script but after upgrade and a new machine it stopped working.
I have Mac OS 10.8.5.
This is what I have.
Images (folder)
111111_00.jpg
111111_01.png
222222_01.jpg
222222_02.png
222222_03.gif
I'd like to be able to create a new folder for each "group of files" (new folder 111111, new folder 222222) and move the appropriate files into each of them.
The filenames are always built by 6 digits underscore and 2 digits. Can be whatever filetype. (123456_01.jpg)
I have a script that used to work just fine but now it just creates one folder and then freezes.
This is the script that doesn't work.
set chosen_folder to (choose folder)
tell (a reference to my text item delimiters) to set {old_delim, contents} to {contents, "_"}
tell application "Finder"
    try
        set file_list to files of chosen_folder
    on error
        set file_list to {}
    end try
    repeat with this_file in file_list
        set folder_name to name of this_file
        if folder_name contains "." then set folder_name to ((text items 1 thru -2 of folder_name) as string)
        set new_folder to ((chosen_folder as string) & folder_name & ":")
        try
            get new_folder as alias
        on error
            make new folder at chosen_folder with properties {name:folder_name}
        end try
        move this_file to folder new_folder without replacing
    end repeat
end tell
set my text item delimiters to old_delim
I know that there are many who can do this easy as pie, but if you can find it in your hearts to help me it would be much appreciated.

Something like that should work.

Why does the ath.exe file stop working in the middle of backing up to ICloud? How do I fix this?

While trying to back up to our ICloud account, the ATH.exe file stops working. How do I fix this?

Hi Jaynet, thanks for your reply.
My cells do contain values so that's no problem. It's a very simple setup where I have 2x6 cells with a couple of parameters that are to be used by all my connections in the workbook.
Using vb code to update the "forgotten" parameters inside the connections was something I also was thinking could be a solution. Just felt it would be a shame when the functionality for what I'm trying to do cleary has been built
in to excel in a very simple way through the UI.
Before I go down the vb route I'm gonna see if I can find more info about any fixes for this bug in excel, maybe a hot patch or something like that. (I can't speak vb so building such a thing is going to take a while for me as I have to take bits
and pieces I find around the web to get stuff working) :)

DVD either plays wrong movie file, stops while playing, or won't play

Hi, everyone. I'm pretty new to Macs, having got a MacBook a couple of months ago. I just made my first dvd using iDVD, and it played perfectly in preview, but it has all kinds of playback problems. In addition to my main feature, which I made in iMovie, I included a few .mov videos from my digital camera, created a slideshow using iDVD, and, for kicks, put a single image of my cat with a caption exported from Power Point (for Mac) to play before the title menu. (Ah, yes, the newbie likes to play with new toys!)
Problem 1: I placed the newly burned disc in my mom's HP laptop to see if it would play, and we chose Real Player to play it. At first nothing would play, but we tried a couple of buttons, and then the dvd started. But, instead of the pic of my cat I expected, one of the .mov file began to play. It then went on to the title menu as it was supposed to. However, none of the buttons would respond to the mouse or the keyboard.
Problem 2: Wondering why that was going on, we tried the Windows Media Player, QuickTime, the HP QuickPlay player, and a 4th player on her laptop I was unfamiliar with. None of them worked. I even tried ejecting and reinserting the disk each time, Finally, Real Player would not play the disk on a second try.
Problem 3: I put the dvd in a dvd player hooked up to a t.v. The same incorrect .mov file played, followed by the title menu. I started the Main Feature (iDVD movie, 30 minutes long); it started, but then after a couple of minutes, the video just stopped. I hit play again, and the same wrong .mov file played again. Any time I went to the title menu and clicked to play any of the .mov files or the slideshow, the same single .mov file played.
I am using some DVD+Rs 4x that my friend gave me (the videos are for her). They are the CompUSA brand, which she apparently uses all the time. I've never had a dvd burner before. I encoded for Professional Quality, chose Single level dvd, and used widescreen aspect ratio in NTSC mode. There are 46 minutes of content in the project, and the little arrow on the Capacity meter is just a little over the halfway mark, still well within the green. The content size is 2.43GB; I have 111.53 freespace.
If anybody has any idea of what when wrong, I would appreciate it. I have double- and triple- checked everything I could think of, and read every help topic I could find, and I can't find anything that I did wrong.
Thanks.

My suggestion is that you use the 'crawl before you walk' and 'walk before you run' approach.
Don't try a 'kitchen sink' project before you have cut your teeth on a couple of simpler projects. If you don't want to waste a DVD, just create a disk image file (an option under FILE in iDVD) and play it with the Apple DVD Player application.
The only sure way to test your DVD is with a set top DVD player hooked to a TV set. There are too many strange variables associated with the many Windows DVD playing applications.
instead of the pic of my cat I expected, one of the .mov file began to play. It then went on to the title menu as it was supposed to.
It sounds like you put the files in the wrong locations within iDVD. (Look at the MAP view for positioning.)
Try a simple first project.

.mov files stop halfway on .mac homepage

I'm having a problem playing a .mov file on my homepage. I made it in iPhoto6 as a slideshow, exported it to a .mov file. I tested it and it plays fine on my hard drive as well as my idisk. It stops half-way through, however, when I play it on my homepage using Safari. I have called my cable ISP and the modem is working fine. I have deleted the page and re-loaded it. It consistently stops at the same halfway mark. Can anyone help? I have some eager people waiting to see this. Thanks.

Does it play OK if you drag it into a Safari window and play it thru Safari on you Mac?
Do you Twango?

.mov Files not working in Mac but working on Windows

I use a Kodak 10MP digital camera to click. I use it to shoot some videos too.
I had some videos taken earlier on the camera and used to view them on windows. Just bought a Macbook a few days ago, and all those videos worked fine (transfered using an external drive). But there is something I m so confused with now.
All the videos I shoot now, iPhoto does not import (hangs). I copied the video to windows where I could see all easily, and copied it to a pen drive. But sadly even trying to open them on pen drive doesn't work. It says its not a .mov file (dimension: -- --) whereas earlier videos be it 640x480 or HD worked fine. Do note videos are working on Windows. I have Quicktime 10.0 and player 7 installed.
Please help.

Won't you mid it AMAZING
Windows Quicktime and VLC are playing the files easily. Mac OS X is not. aren't mov files exclusive to Apple?
There are no picture settings on the camera (heck the camera is so bad you can't do anything even on trying). How is this possible that old videos worked and new aren't. I can't even sleep until I understand.
Already feeling going the Mac way wasn't the right choice. Should have stuck with Windows.

RAW / CR2 files stopped working? ie RAW support seems to be bust

Hi There,
I've just uploaded a bunch of new pictures from my Canon EOS 5D Mark II in RAW format and they are not being recognised. Aperture, Preview or PS 3 don't recognise them. Aperture gives me a dotted line box, Preview does nothing and PS3 just tells me it's an unsupported file format.
Even my old RAW has stopped opening (350D and 40D).
Everything worked fine a few days ago. All I have done to my system is regular Software Updates, but I note that RAW support 2.7 was installed a few days ago - could that have corrupted things somehow?
Has anyone else had problems since installing 2.7?
Any ideas how to fix this?
As a note, I can open these files using the Canon software that came with the camera (which I installed back in the dark ages and never use).
Cheers,
Rob.

Nope. I shot in 'regular' RAW. I have a Macbook Pro too (also with the 2.7 update) and that can see the files fine, so it's obviously something wrong with my config/install. The problem is I can't see how to address the problem. One thing I have noticed is that the Mac with the problem thinks the file kind is "Canon Camera Raw File" and the Mac that is working fine things that the file is a "Canon CR2 raw image". I've no idea how the file associations work or how I can chose how the OS sees the images. On both Macs the file is identical - including the file name and extension.

Movie controls stopped working

my movie controls have stopped working
such as
the trans port controls appear when I move the mouse
using the escape key to cancel out of the movie
the ONLY way I can close a full screen movie is to click it and look for an 'x' in the upper left corner.
I am on a mbp retina runing the latest os/itunes.

I am having a similar problem with my two MacBook Pros, but only with You Tube. When I play a You Tube video on my even older Mac Pro, the volume is fine. I've researched this extensively, but will admit I'm not too good at understanding all the options in the Mac Preferences. Nevertheless, I've tried multiple suggestions to no avail. Were it not for the fact that YouTube works fine on my MacPro, I'd believe it was a You Tube problem. But I don't.
All three computers are running the same Mac OS.

Swf sound files stopped working with latest player!

Hi, somebody can tell me if there is a bug in the latest
adobre swf player? Since 3 days my birdsound site (see
http://www.indeks.pt/cantodepassaros/indexuk.htm)
stopped working properly. Sounds from swf files come out completely
distorted, nothing was changed in the site in this period. With an
old ff flashplayer plugin version 9 works fine.
please help

Yes.
Victory is mine.
VICTORY IS MINE!!!
Solution:
Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\mms.cfg
Set
AVHardwareDisable=1
to:
AVHardwareDisable=0
Restart your browser. Done. Camera works now.
I really want to shout this solution from the rooftops, because try Googling the solution sometime. I did. I failed. You will too. Hopefully if I use some more 18-point bold font, Google will index it faster, because that's the way it works right?
I actually had no idea that Flash Player has a folder in Windows\system32 at all, and I definitely had no idea that this file existed. I am guessing some stinking app I installed decided I needed AVHardwareDisable set to 1 for some reason (effers). I found out about the location by just lazily searching through the windows registry for "Flash Player" and eventually saw it pointing to that directory. A little more poking around and I found this file.
Those of you who actively support this forum: please keep this in the back of your mind, next time someone has audio/video input problems with Flash Player. I've found an awful lot of forum posts from people with cameras not working, and I bet a good portion of them need this fix. Reinstalling Flash Player will not fix it. Here's hoping the solution comes up in Google for the next unlucky soul.

HELP! Suddenly Flash SWF files stopped working in pres!

Hi,
I'm not sure what's causing the problem, but Flash files in my Keynote 08 presentation stopped working and I can't figure out what happened. Would it be because I upgraded to a more recent version of 10.5 or that I inadvertently moved the original Flash files somewhere else or another thing? Any advice?
Thanks!

Thanks Kyn,
You've been a HUGE help.
I've got an external firewire drive with a bootable 10.5.1 partition, so I'm thinking I'll downgrade to 7.2. Your comment got me wondering if 7.2 will run on 10.5.1 or do I need 10.4?
I'm really only going to be using this FW drive to run Keynote presentations and possibly Photoshop. Do you think I'll be OK?

Backing Files Stop Working For No Apparent Reason. Help?

I have a portal application accessing a remote WSRP PageFlow portlet. The remote portlet populates a backing file and the producer application reads the data. It was working fine and then it stopped working for no apparent reason. The data was simply null, no errors or warnings. I put traces in the backing file and verified that the life-cycle methods were indeed being called and that data was there, and yes, both were indeed the case. Data is being set on the SimpleStateHolder and it's just not transferring over to the producer side.
In order to rule out environmental issues, I've done this on multiple machines. Also, I started a whole new project, got backing file setup, verified that it worked, started developing with it and one time I deployed and it was broken again. I rolled out the changes I had just made but it didn't matter. The earlier code still failed to work although it had been working moments earlier.
So, any ideas? Has anybody else encountered backing file issues like this and if so do you have any suggestions on debugging or fixing them?
Ryan

SWF files stopped working Flash8

Hi,
I have uploaded my swf file to the web. It is a video clip .
Some of the swf loads on the web (the text part) when I click a
button, to load it, but the video does not show ? see page 2 of
link below
www.geocities/suddentlyisee.com
I have load swf files with video clips before, which worked
perfectly, but suddenly stopped working ?
Thanks,
Paul

Thanks Nickels for replying. Sorry about incorrect URL. It
should have been www.geocities.com/suddentlyisee
I think the issue may be with the geocities web host, as they
do not allow uploading of .flv files. But I did make the flv files
into swf and could watch the video's that way. I am going to use a
different web host and try again.
Thanks

New movies files not working properly

Hello,
I have a new all in one HP pc with Windows 8. I have completed all pc updates and including latest Java. I have downloaded Itunes 12 and imported my old Itunes library from my network drive. My itunes library was created on an XP system and I still have it mapped to my Network Drive as it is 2TB in size.
The library contents are all fine and everything works. My problem is now any new movies m4v, mp4 which I import does not work. Itunes will upload the files, which then appear in the Home Video section. When I try to add artwork, or move file into 'movies' or even play the film Itunes goes into 'Not Responding' and I have to shut it down from from task menu. This issues only occurs with new movies. New music is fine.
I have tried to use alternative compatibility option none of these work.
Does anybody know how I can get my new movie content to work? btw the files are good as I have tried them on another system and they work just fine.
Thanks

anybody have any ideas?
