My quicktime player no longer plays quicktime attachments from emails.

I cannot play quicktime attachments from incoming emails although I used to be able to.  Any suggestions?

Are you sure the files are playable by quicktime. Corruption perhaps?
What does quicktime say?

  • Why does it take too long to open attachments from email account?

    It takes forever to download attachments from my email account. I have tried to do the following tasks explained on the vista forum :http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-US/help/6b046ae9-1434-4423-9303-400ff6fe686b1033.mspx#ESD but none of the possible fixes work.
    After clicking open on the pop up box asking whether i want to open or save the attachement It takes too long to download it. The transfer window stays open showing that it is ready to download but stays at that bhox window. I press cancel and try to open again, if lucky it opens that file, otherwise it takes forever forceing me to cancel. The files very small files most of the time, usually between 50kb so should take seconds.
    I have even tried to save the files but again same process. The transfer box stays open but does not download.
    Any one any ideas.
    Thanx in advance.

    Hello
    It is not easy to say what happen exactly but it must be something with email account provider and their page. For me this case is not some typical Vista problem but you can try to find solution on Microsoft Vista IT Pro forum.
    By the way: do you have alternative mail address by some other provider? Is there the same situation?

  • Can no longer open .doc attachments from email

    I can see the attachments at the bottom and I can click on them and it looks like it is processing (the little wheel spins), then nothing.
    PDFs open fine.
    Any ideas?

    Check out this page on how to reset. The problem you're facing usually can be solved by resettting:

  • 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.

  • I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
    According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
    DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
    As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
    I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view.

  • My 10.6.8 macbook pro's DVD player won't play a movie from Netflix.  The DVD does play on a 10.5 mb pro.  So DVD is ok.  Message says "not permitted" when I click play.  Is there a compatibility issue? Or something else?

    Hello:
    This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
    When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

  • Why can't I remove attachments from emails in the Sent items folder?

    I Recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion, and so far, there are at least a couple of things that puzzle me.
    One is that now I don't have the option to "Remove Attachments" from emails in the sent items folder. It seems to work normally
    in the Inbox and Drafts folders, but not in the Sent items. Go figure ???
    Another thing that bothers me is that in Preview, when I save a screen shot, or a scan, etc., I no longer have the option of saving it as a GIF
    (which, when better quality isn't absolutely necessary, is often much lower in KB or MB than a PNG or JPG, etc.. When I store lots of things as such images, I'd rather have that option.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    I have now created a smart mailbox as described above (good idea), and although I have some 50 messages in my Sent box, all with attachments (waiting to be removed so I can store the messages in the proper mailboxes), the smart mailbox is empty. So, Mail doesn't recognise these messages as containing attachments.
    This led me to think that maybe Mail has been redesigned to work the way you would expect it to, at last; to contain a link to attachments instead of including them in all their bits and bytes. That would mean that the messages in my Sent box - with attachments - could be stored in local (or server-side) mailboxes without taking up extensive space.
    But then I checked the size of my Sent Messages folder inside the Mail Folder in Finder, and - whoops - it's 50+ MB. So the sent messages do contain attachments all right. And Mail doesn't recognise these, since a) the smart mailbox trick says that the messages are free from attachments, and b) the Remove Attachments menu option is disabled.
    I will have to wait for the next Mail update, and my Sent box will grow accordingly ...

    Unable to to save photo attachments from emails in ios7

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Quicktime stopped playing attachments from email

    When I first got my iPhone 4S, I used to be able to download attachments from them, like videos and such.  I would scroll down to the bottom of the email, click the attached file, once completed I would click the attachment again and it would start playing the video.  For some reason now, when I click on the attachment after it has downloaded, it goes to a new screen where it shows the title of the video but doesn't play the video.  All it shows is a black screen with the title on top.  At first I thought it was just the new emails wern't compatable, but I even went back to some of the older emails that I know worked before and they won't play now.  What happened?  How can I fix this?  Please help.

  • Why When I try to open a quicktime movie from email it never stops " loading ?"

    When I try to run a QuickTime video from my email, it just continues to say "loading". Can anyone explain this?

    Sorry, no one here can help you. You're in the wrong fourm. It's posted in the iPod Shuffle Fourm. But, I can answer your question. It's either due to a corrupt file or slow connection. It's that simple. Just ask them to email it to you again, because if the file is corrupt, it's that easy.

  • I can no longer get a video from email or yahoo to work.  what has happened, and how do I fix it?

    I can no longer watch videos from email or yahoo.  what has happened? and how do I fix it?  Thanks
    Message was edited by: ConnieH1999  sorry my first question said I phone.  It is my mac desk top.  thanks

    While I don't use a Mac, I belive you connect the device to the computer via USB and then import the file using a file utility similar to what you do when you import digital pictures. I'm guessing that the Mac has something like this?

  • Trouble downloading all attachments from email

    Hey There,
    I am absolutely frustrated that I can not download any attachments from my yahoo email!
    Recently, someone gained access to my computer and read private files. This lead me into a spin of security over haul. I activated all the security settings in the System Preferences (set a master password and ticked all the boxes), as well as tried to retrieve my files (which they deleted) using a demo version of Stellar Phoenix and Disk Warrior to no success.
    But since I've done all of the above in the last few weeks, I can not download any attachments (word, pdf, jpg anything) from my yahoo email.
    I click on the attachment icon to download. This then appears in the downloads box. It starts to load but then gives up at "9.3kb of ?". saying that it "cannot create the file". I click on the refresh button next to the details and it prepares the download, but ends up not being able to create the file.
    Would this be a Safari problem or would it be due to the security settings that I have recently activated?
    Please help me!

    No luck unfortunately
    I turned off all the security preferences I could (Filevault, waking the computer with password etc), except for the master password, and I still am having the same problem of my email attachments not downloading.
    While using Stellar Phoenix Demo to try and recover my deleted files,I had to create a new account, one for myself and one for the Root. Could creating either of these possibly have an effect? I know how stupid that sounds but the separate accounts and the master password being set are the only two options left that I can't change and I'm still having problems downloading attachements.
