My Quicktime 7 is No longer able to play HD trailers online, or D/L them

Please Help
OK, so, I have always been an avid user of my Quicktime Pro to watch the HD (720p & 1080p) off-line. Actually it was the only way to watch them. Recently, any trailer on the trailers.apple.com site, Will NOT play or d/l when I click on "Watch now in HD" -- I get an error of: Error 47: Invalid URL. ()
When instead I copy the URL and open a Quicktime window and select, "Open URL" I get:
Error 2048: Couldn't open the file [trailer-URL-here] because it is not a file that Quicktime understands. 
This has never happened before.
HOWEVER: When I manually copy and paste that same URL into my browser (Any browser) I Am able to watch that same video in the browser. Basically, If I hadn't done the extra work of copying & pasting the URL, I would Never had been able to watch the HD trailer...
Here's an example HD page:
http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/paramount/transformersdarkofthemoon/
Then followed by the copied trailer URL:
http://trailers.apple.com/movies/paramount/transformers3/transformers-clip1_1080 p.mov (will work in any browser upon clicking, but will not work in my local Quicktime)
I've uninstalled, and re-installed & made sure there are no conflicting apps. or codecs. Am I the only one? (can't be)
OS: Windows Vista
Quicktime Pro 7 (Most recent updated version)

Same problem for me, i have a home network i have tried 4 of the windows 7 X64 machines and none of them can access  the pop out HD trailers one of them i have only just built it and absolutelyas i say it was a newly built machine, i use the open in new tab method to get around it but it is just madness to have to do so.
  I was beginning to think it may have been related to the virgin media *super hub* (not what i would call it lol) but it would appear that that is not the case as there have been no reports on the vm forums of this problem.
I have just tested it on my vista home premium laptop X86 and that has the same problem as well.
Apple you need to fix this as it is most definatly broken.

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

    Hi, Although I had itunes downloaded on my pc & been using for a while now, today I've been prompted to download itunes again. This has been successfull except that 65 songs that I had previously in my library are now no longer able to play, the message informes me that the original files could not be found. Yet these songs are still on my ipod after being syncronised and I can play them on my ipod. Please advise how I can find the original files on my pc.
    Thank you
    Carol

    I would copy over the entire thing if you have room.  With iTunes 10.4 though, you can download any previous iTunes purchases you have made in the past with your current iTunes account.  While in iTunes, look at the left hand side of your screen and select "Purchases" and look at the bottom right corner of the screen and select "Download Previous Purchases".  If you have an iPhone, iPod and/or iPad...you can do the same thing from each device.  Nice new feature...just remember that those ripped CDs need a back-up!!!  Enjoy...

  • No longer able to supported video formats(online)

    For Past 2 weeks now, I am no longer able to play an online supported 3GP, MP4 etc videos. Be youtube or any online video that is currently support by BB z3 does not play.I have rebooted the phone, checked for updates on BB world for any update related to videos but NO SUCCESS!! Can someone help me to get the videos start playing?? Please. I am running BB OS 10.3.1.1779 on model STJ100-1. Is it my provider or blackberry?   

    I remember 10.3.1.1779 was pushed by Vodafone in India sometime back.. i suggest you to go for "Security Wipe"... Do take complete backup of your device using linkPerform Security wipe and don't update your apps immediately,check if the problem is fixed, otherwise you have to reinstall the operating system.(Security wipe will fix any glitches left during last installation)..

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost       
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Can you send email from that account on another device?
    - You can try deleing the account from the iPod and reentering the settings.

  • TS1389 when i changed my browser to IE 8, I am no longer able to play the songs I purchased. I keep getting a dialog box saying "this computer is not authorized to play this song. Would you like to authorize it? The box has an old apple ID . How do I get

    I try to play the Itunes song I purchased. I have a new computer, another internet provider since I purchased the songs, and have switched to a new internet browser Internet Explorer 8. I keep getting a dialog box saying "this computer is not authorized to play the song. would you like to authorize it?
    An old Apple ID popps up and I am asked for the old passwork which I no longer remember. I successfully changed to a new Apple ID and password.
    when I enter that, a new dialog box appears, saying "this computer is already authorized." When I try to play the song the first box appears again,
    I I go round over and over, with no success playing my songs. Can anybody out their resolve this? Thanks for any help

    Were these songs purchased using another account?
    " I opened a new iTunes account and copied the files to the new account.  "
    Do you mean to a new library?
    Account is a user neame and password with which you purchase content.
    A library is your collection of media.

  • After updates were installed, we are no longer able to play our games on facebook, why???

    The same apps we have been playing forever no longer will open or run. They just sit at the opening screen and don't progress. I'm not very computer savvy. I have gone back to using Internet Explorer for the time being, but I do not like IE and it runs too slow. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Who knows why? Between a Flash update and 2 Firefox updates in the same week, plus Mozilla trying to get the new version of Firefox out the door, my guess is all of the above.
    Either stick with IE for those games for the time being or revert to Firefox 3.6.13 and Flash 10.2 r102 until Adobe and Mozilla can figure whose product is causing all these problems - and fix it.

  • After IOS 7, i am no longer able to play Netflix V.5.0.2 on TV with the VGA adapter for IPAD 2

    Once IOS7 was realesed I upgraded my IPAD 2 software. Later i upgraded Netflix version for IOS 7 and suddenly i could no longer display Netflix on my tv using the cable VGA to IPAD adapter.
    At first a alert appeared saying that i needed to disable air play, but did not know how to do it. When a bugged and Fixed version for Netflix came out, I upgraded it and now the only thing tha is displayed on the TV are subtitles but no image.
    Can someone help me?

    That crash appears to be casued by the Facebook plug-in.
    Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts or Users & Groups on 10.7 and 10.8), make a new Library in that account, import some shots  and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Whenever I click on a song in my itunes library an exclamation point appears and I am no longer able to play this song or video why does this keep happening and what can I do to fix it?

    Whenever I click on a song or video in my library and I try to play it, and exclamation point immediately pops up and it tells me that my song or video's origional file cannot be located. It has happened to over 100 of my songs and I would like to know what is happening and what I can do to fix it. Let me know. Thanks!

    The usual explanation for this is that:
    1. You have changed the iTunes preferences so that when importing a song the file is not copied into the iTunes media library - doing so is the default.
    2. You have subsequently moved the original file, which iTunes has been using to play your song, and so of course it's lost contact with it.
    If 1. is not the case, then the files in the iTunes Library (by default, in (user)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music) may have been moved, deleted or become corrupted. You should check in that library, but don't start moving files in there about. If this is the case you should delete the songs in the iTunes Music list, not in the Finder, and re-import.

  • I am no longer able to play a cd on my MBA using my Macbook's super drive... all the settings are correct, I think, as I used to be able to do this without a problem.. any suggestions?

    How do I play a cd on my MBA using the super drive on my old Macbook? The Macbook is set to share cds and dvds, but when I go to the remote disc on my MBA and click on my Macbook, I get this message: the operation can't be completed because the original item for "Audio CD" can't be found"

    You can't play copywrited protected content over Remote disc.  It's blocked.

  • Car bluetooth no longer able to play podcasts through stereo interface after 8.1

    I have a 2012 Scion Tc (with the pioneer touchscreen audio interface) and an Ipad Air. Since upgrading to 8.1, I have lost all functionality to choose and play podcasts (and specifically podcasts, music works fine) through my car interface. I can navigate my selection of podcast to play but when I pick the one I want nothing happens. If you manually use the podcast app on the ipad and press play, it works fine but cannot navigate to say the next podcast in line. You must select everything through the Ipad, which is not possible when driving.

    It appears that the printer is OK and is on the network.  Eventually you may want to set a static IP address for it, but let's get things working first.
    The first thing I would try would be to reset the printing system on all the problem Macs:
    - Sys Prefs, Print & Fax
    - Right (control) click the print queue area and select Reset Printing System.
    - Select the plus sign to re-add it. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
    If this does not do it there may be something going on with the router.  I have a few ideas if this is required.  Let me know.

  • 4.2 - No longer able to play TV Shows and Movies with the screen locked

    I know this sounds like a weird thing to want, but some Movies and TV Shows are perfectly suitable for listening to without the picture (e.g. musicals, comedies, chat shows).
    Prior to 4.2, even though locking the screen stops a Movie or TV Show from playing, you could resume it by double-clicking the home button and then pressing play. This would leave the screen locked, but play just the soundtrack of the Movie or TV Show you had been watching.
    Now, with the 4.2 update, this is broken - and not just in a "feature removed" kind of way. If I try and resume a Move or TV Show as I did before, I get the play button, and clicking on it appears to start for a fraction of a second, before the screen abruptly switches back to the locked screen background.
    This is extremely disappointing, but I just wanted to check here first to see if it's just my phone doing this, or whether it really is a bug.

    My old PC died and I got a new one.  I was able to back up the old PC and downloaded my iTunes library on the new PC.  I keep getting  a message saying: "This computer is no longer authorized to play purchased items that are on this iPod.  Would you like to authorize this computer for the items purchased from the iTunes store?"   I have authorized the new PC, but it continues to ask me over and over, and if I authorize it again, it tells me I already authorized.  So frustrating!  I deactivated the old PC and activated the new one.
    Also, I purchased a song from iTunes store and while it shows in my library on the PC, it won't download to the iPod.  Why won't the new song download to the iPod?
    Any ideas. suggestions?

    Well Authorize the Computer...........

  • HT1338 Quicktime Player no longer plays under Mountain Lion

    Quicktime Player no longer plays under Mountain Lion.  It loads, I can see the video but it does not move when clicked on to advance. It does move page by page mannually with the arrow buttons but does not play when clicked on the video advance button.

    Is this a known problem?
    Yes, if you mean that the MOV file may contain data that is not supported by the QT X AV Foundation, Modernizer, and Convert 64-bit QT X structures embedded in the Mavericks and Yosemite operating systems but still supported by the 32-bit QT 7 structure still included in these operating systems and/or supported by the "open" codec configuration accessible by QT 7.
    Has the format of mov files been changed?
    I don't believe the file container format has changed but security updates and/or Mavericks/Yosemite codec support limitations may fail to recognize or support a particular file container/data compression format combination. Since you have not provided any information regarding the data actually contained in the MOV file, it is impossible to be more specific here. However, in most cases it is possible to use any of the available FFmpegX based transcoding utilities to manually convert unsupported data to file/compression combinations that are compatible with both QT X and QT 7 based apps under any current Mac OS X systems.
