My videos in iPhoto 6 won't play.

Hi there, my videos in iPhoto 6 won't play anymore.  I recently installed Snow Leopard on my old macbook.  I have QuickTime Player 10.  Does this new installation have anything to do with it? How can I fix it?  Thanks.

you need to download ans install QT 7

  • IPhoto won't play videos (with QT7), after renaming video files in Finder

    Hi folks,
    My iPhoto9 played video files with Quick time when double clicking the video files in iPhoto. Yesterday I renamed approx 50 video files in Finder (double clicked and renamed them). Now iPhoto won't play them when double clickling. The only way to play them is to a) drag/drop to vlc or b) double click them in Finder.
    How can I tell iPhoto to play the video files (interesting fact: the meta data still shows the video old file names)?
    Can anyone help me? Thanks!!!!
    Thanks
    AS

    I have not changed default seetings, so I assume I'm running Managed libary.
    The yes, that's the case. So, to do this you had to access the Package File and then rename the files. Wasn't the fact that the files are not directly accessible a hint?
    I tried overwriting iLife09 (without deleting the version that was on -> it didn't help!!)
    Nor would it. That might restore the applications (though without removing the receipts it won't be very effective) but the problem isn't the Applications. The problem is that you have corrupted the Library.
    What if I delete iLife and reinstall it. Will iPhoto then be able to play the videos (that I previously renamed with Finder)?
    No. Because, again, it will not undo what you did in the Library folder.
    As you have no back up, you no have exactly one option: Create a new Library and start over from scratch, importing the originals from the Library you trashed.

  • Videos on iPhoto no longer play. All was fine as I was organizing photos, but suddenly no more videos would play. What has happened?

    Videos on iPhoto no longer play. All was fine as I was organizing photos, but suddenly no more videos would play. What has happened?

    Something went wrong. Now for a useful answer...
    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work?

    I have an iPod nano 6th generation and I downloaded 3 music videos but they won't play on my iPod. They only play on my laptop/iTunes. How can I get it to work? I know that my iPod should take music videos because there is a pre-made playlist called "Music videos". Can anyone help me please????

    You can sync the music videos, but they won't play on your 6G Nano, because it does not support video playback. Sorry.

  • Video on YouTube won't play !

    Video on YouTube won’t play Until I refresh the page? However, when the video ends okay then can not play the video again? Video plays only once then had to refresh the page in order to watch the same video?

    Hi G-hot, were you able to solve your other issues with Youtube from your earlier thread, or is this an additional problem with Youtube? I think if you could list all the problem in one list it might be helpful.

    Also, did you do the usual?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first on Youtube and Gmail). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then change the site at the top from youtube.com to google.com and clear those as well.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • My videos on iPhoto no longer play ... the message reads OSStatus error -54.    anyone any idea what this might mean?

    My videos on iPhoto no longer play ... the message reads OSStatus error -54.    anyone any idea what this might mean?

    Hi Terence,
    FWIW...
    I just restored my entire iPhoto library from Time Machine.  I'm running Yosemite.  After opening iPhoto for the first time after restoring the DB, it asked me to confirm my library location.  Then it proceeded to update all the thumbnails.  After this was completed, I observed what the OP reported: all photos work normally, but all videos were a.) missing thumbnails; and b.) yielding this error code when attempting to open.
    HOWEVER.  Doing a Reveal in Finder showed the videos on disk, and they were playable.  After quitting iPhoto and restarting it, it *again* said it was updating thumbnails, and now all the videos both have the thumbnails and play correctly from within iPhoto.

  • Battery died while importing iPhoto video thumbnails, project won't play

    I had recently added some new videos from my digital camera to iPhoto. Opening iMovie, it prompts to create thumbnails. I said yes and it said it would take about 15 minutes. My battery was low, but it looked like it would finish fine. I came back a few minutes later and the computer was off.
    When I powered up again to charge, the iMovie thumbnail processing window was still up but hadn't finished. It appeared to have finished. The problem is that now a project I had completed a month ago won't play back properly. The thumbnails have a little yellow exclamation mark and flicker on/off gray. Trying to play the video usually crashes iMovie now, and it only plays back in short spurts.
    My project appears to be corrupt or something. Is there a way to recover? Can I delete bad thumbnails from somewhere through Finder?

    Have you tried the Bridge forum?

  • Videos in iPhoto don't play when double-clicked?

    Today, I upgraded to Snow Leopard. Prior to the update, when I was in iPhoto, I would double-click on a video and Quicktime would auto open and play the video. Since the update today, when I double-click on a video in iPhoto, nothing happens! I am forced to manually open quicktime and search for the video to open through my 3,000+ photos. Anyone have a solution for this problem?!

    Exactly the same issue for me. Went to Snow Leopard and now the videos won't play in Iphoto. Software update is up to date, tried to manually install Quicktime again but it won't let me as it's already on the HD. Tried to delete it and try again but it doesn't seem to be working. Some help would be appreciated.
    Cheers,
    T.

  • While in imovie, when working on a project, I can NOT view the project in the right hand screen. I have made several videos and it has always worked before. I am not able to edit the videos because they won't play in the right hand screen.

    The videos that I import (and are located on the bottom of imovie) will show up and play on the right hand screen. But if I move that clip to the actually project area it won't play in the right hand side! I somehow must have clicked something that now won't play the project videos and now plays the clips below instead! Help please I need to fix this! Everythign else works, I can still edit videos, add transitions, music, etc I just can't see it on the right hand side- so I can't edit because I can't see

    See my post here on how to do this.

  • Video from iPhone won't play on iPad

    I received a video from iPhone in an email but iPad won't play it? Any way to get it to play on iPad.

    I appreciate what you are both saying -- but it is not the music that is the problem.  The video itself is NOT blocked - you can view it on a computer -- but when you try to view it on ipad/iphone the message says, "not available on this platform".  Here is a link to a video I did in Elements 9 on Tuesday:

    Here is the link to the video done last night in 11:

    The "raw files" are both adobe flash.flv -- it's just not making sense...
    Thank you!!!

  • Video says it won't play on iphone 4s

    bought and downlaoded hd video to my itunes library. Go to move it to my Iphone 4s and get message saying it won't play on this iphone.

    Try resetting all settings/ restore the phone. But be sure to backup. These steps are the usual resolutions. I don't really know anything else that would solve this issue. I'm trying to look for an article for this but it didn't help. Maybe you can try searching youtube forums.

  • Video player - iPad won't play! Help?

    HHi, my i player won't play, nothing will not play all of a sudden? Any solutions greatly appreciated! Thanks jo

    Try closing the Videos App and reset the iPad.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Video clip previews won't play.

    Videos won't play in Adobe Premiere Elements 10, but play fine in other programs on my computer. I've tried rendering it, installing a new hard drive for scratch disk, and saving the file in different locations. Once when I applied video merge to a clip, it played. I am editing videos blindly and can't take advantage of most of the features of the program. It's really frustrating. Any ideas?

    adelante
    What is the video card/graphics card that your computer with Premiere Elements 10 uses?
    If it is NVIDIA GeForce, then you have the well known and documented Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue which is remedied by rolling back
    the driver version to about May 2013. Please review the following
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    as well as  the Announcement on this matter at the top of this forum.
    Basically you will need to plug your information into the following NVIDIA fields to determine if there is a driver version for your card that is old enough to be used.
    NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
    If you are a Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit user, you will probably find that old enough drivers do not exist for you. Then non NVIDIA GeForce card or Premiere Elements 11, 12, or 13.
    Please review and consider if any of the above applies to you. If not, then we will explore alternative troubleshooting.
    Thank you.

  • Video in iMovie won't play.

    I have edited an entire almost 45 minute long iMovie, but when I play it, certain videos I added and edited won't play, and the screen will stay on the picture that was shown before the video. How do I fix this?

    I too have this problem, includes when i add cutaways - the original video freezes and the cutaway never comes up.

  • ITunes only play audio with videos. regular songs won't play

    I have tried everything from updating, to uninstalling and downloading a new version. Music videos, movies, TV, etc. as long as there is video sound will play but plain audio won't play. I audio diamond won't move either. Everything transfers to my iPod fine. Any ideas on what could be wrong?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.
