Playing quicktime audio in succession, but only on Click

I have a slide that has text, and three different audio clips. I would like the slide to do the following, when I click.
Click 1 - First set of text appears
Click 2 - First audio file plays
Click 3 - Second audio file plays
Click 4 - Third audio file plays
Click 4 - Second set of text appears
I cannot seem to get this sequence. All I can make it do is play the audio on the first three clicks, then the text appears on the subsequent clicks.
What am I doing wrong?

You should be able to revise the order by changing the Order in the Build inspector. The easiest way is to open the 'More Options' drawer and dragging the items into the order you want.
I noted that the first time I tried this it didn't seem to work until I clicked 'Play Movie on click' in the Quicktime inspector so maybe try that first.
I'm also presuming that the text is in two different text boxes.

Quicktime Launches on CNBC but Only Plays Commercials

Quicktime flip4mac launches when playing a video on CNBC but only plays the commercial - and then stops-when using Safari.
It does not continue on playing the news item.
Is there a setting I need to change on some application?
It will play if I use Opera, Firefox or Camino -
The Quicktime Player launches and plays everything.
I wish it would play in Safari.
I have all the updates for Quicktime, Flip4mac etc.

If you had no problems playing the videos on other browsers, then it seems to me the problem is not QT but with Safari in the way it is handling the CNBC site.
*A couple of things to try:*
To fix a QT related problem w/Safari, quit Safari & look in the /Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder (this is the Library folder at the root level of your HD, not the one inside your Users/user name folder).
Try removing the VLC Plugin.plugin (if you have it) & *QuickTime Plugin.webplugin files from this folder, & then relaunch Safari. If the problem isn’t fixed, a different plug-in may be to blame. Keep removing files from this folder (start with any third-party plug-ins that are present) until the problem disappears.
Replace the plug-ins that don’t cause any problems.

Rosetta
If you have an Intel-based Mac, running Safari in Rosetta can also resolve some QT plug-in issues.
First quit the app if it’s open & then, in your Applications folder, select Safari & press Command+I.
In the General area of the Safari Info dialog that appears (click the disclosure triangle if this area is not already expanded), select Open Using Rosetta, & then close the Safari Info dialog.
Relaunch Safari.

Try this first - 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 - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Audio clip plays normal in Media Browser, but imports as "clicks" in session after saving & reopening.

This problem has happened with almost all of my large Audition projects. File links are intact & properly managed, and most audio files play as expected. However, some files in the session get replaced with this "click" track, for lack of a better way to describe it. The audio is literally replaced with a repetitive click, or pop sound, as you can see in the image below:
Both tracks had waveforms like the top track, but now the second track has been replaced with clicks.
The strangest part: The file in question, in this case: "Grass" (downloaded directly from Youtube Audio Library, so, not corrupt) previews perfectly fine in the Media Browser window. In the File Browser, however (tracks actually used in the session), it previews as nothing but clicks. When I try to then replace the track in the mixdown / file browser with the seemingly uncorrupted file in the Media Browser, it comes in as clicks!
The only thing I can think of is that the analysis files associated with the project are getting damaged?
Please help!

Can you send a copy of the Grass audio file to [email protected] and we'll take a look?

Audio in Quicktime, audio in iDVD but not in iMovie

Hi All,
I'm pretty sure the answer will be a menu setting I haven't been smart enough to find on my own, so thanks in advance for any and all assistance.
On ocassion I've taken quicktime movie file created in Final Cut Pro, imported it into iMovie - where the sound doesn't play, then out of curiousity shared to iDVD, where voila!, I have sound again!!!
What silly setting am I missing? I'm sure it's something simple I'm overlooking, argh!

Howdy Brian,
I found the perfect article to help troubleshoot the lack of audio when you play movies in Quicktime. Its named iTunes and QuickTime for Windows: Audio does not play or plays incorrectly and can be found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1362.
All the best,

My iPad2 suddenly play no sound on speaker, but only on headphone, it always shows "Dock Connector" in iPod

as the tile said, I use my ipad as usual. no dock connector is installed.
but i found that "Dock Connector" is always displayed in iPod.
is that the problem of connector?
too bad, i don't even drop or bumb my ipad into hard surface. how come it play no sound with the internal speaker!?
"Dock Connector?"
Brothers, please help , thanks alot !

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
First, make sure everything is up to date...
iTunes
iPod Updater
Updating iPod's Software
See if either of these help the sound issue...
Resetting iPod
Restore the iPod
To delete photos, delete them from the folder the iPod is updating from. I have my photo library organized on my computer, and didn't want to change it for the iPod. So, I created a folder called "iPod Pics." Under the photo preferences for the iPod, I told iTunes to sync from there. I just put in and remove photos that I want for my iPod there. This way, I don't need to edit the My Pictures folder just for my iPod.

On my Apple TV I am receiving audio from sound effects only, eg clicking the remote. No audio is heard when I play movies theirfore can't be connection between tv and Apple TV?

No audio for videos or music, only audio is sound effects eg clicking remote noise works also when changing characters also audio works.

Check the sound settings... if set to Dolby Digital that could be the issue, especially if the content does not have dolby digital sound.

How to play an audio file when a sprite is clicked

I am designing a Director movie in order to learn how to use the program. My question is how can I make a small audio file play when the user clicks on a sprite? I believe it is done via a small script. My second question is similar. How can I make the movie play a sound when the cursor hoovers upon a sprite? Can you help, please? Thanks in advance.

Hi Ibrahim,
Rob has pointed you to the Lingo for playing a sound. There is a behavior in the Library Palette that makes this very easy without needing to write a script yourself. In the Media > Sound category, there is a 'Play Sound' behavior. You can click and drag this behavior onto a sprite and then in the Parameters dialog, you can choose the sound to play, the channel in which it should play, the event to activate the sound, and if you want the sound to loop.

Playing Smart Shape Audio Only When Clicked

I’m working on a project in Captivate 6 that has a lot of audio usage. When a slide begins, an audio file plays automatically. There are also two visible buttons per slide, made from smart shapes, that each contain a different audio file. After the learner clicks one of the smart shape buttons, I need it to play an audio file in response to the learner’s answer.
The problem I’m having is that both the slide audio and the two buttons’ audio begin playing concurrently when the slide begins (an auditory triple exposure). Can an advanced action be created to pause the smart shape button audio so it won’t play until the button is clicked?
NOTE: I tried attaching the button audio files to success captions (which are connected to the smart shape buttons) to cause them to wait until clicked before playing. This worked successfully, but this also is problematic. If the second success caption is clicked before the audio from the first one is done playing, they both play at the same time. If there was a way to apply advanced actions to success captions to fix this, that would be great, but, I don’t see any options in the properties window.
Is there a solution to my problem?

@Sreekanth You have a superfluous command. No need to stop a triggered audio when you want to play another audio clip. Both statements/commands are designed so that you can only play one audio clip at the same time, which means that 'Play Audio...' will automatically stop the former audio clip. However the slide audio can not be stopped with Stop Triggered audio. Did you check your solution? Slide audio can not be controlled separately, you can only mute it with cpCmndMute. But that will mute all audio.
@5deMayo (significance of that nickname is puzzling?) If you want to be able to control the slide audio, you have to get rid of the slide audio and use the Play Audio command on entering the slide. Use that same command to add to the advanced action triggered by the shapes. No need to add the command Stop Triggered Audio, which is only necessary when you want to stop an audio clip without starting another one.

Quicktime audio playing up when I multitask

Hey guys,
When I use quicktime to listen to lectures and stuff I usually have it on full scree and I multitask with other programs running such as safari, word and finder etc. When I switch from quicktime to another program (either using command + tab, or swiping on my trackpad) the audio glitches. A few times it's just paused for a quick moment as if i've muted the sound, then continues playing. Lately it's been getting worse, and it makes a static noise, or it just doesnt play the audio at all, but the video is still playing.
Anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Sorry Ralph,
It didn't solve the problem.
What's happens is when I go onto a coca cola site I enter my email and password. The process shows it is working and nothing happens, just keeps on trying.
When I logged into my internet provider to delete my emails nothing comes up. Had to use another galaxy tablet which worked, no problems..
Next I enter completions where you have multy choice answer and you pick one and same with the rest of the question and all the iPad does is revert back to the in completed form.
Sorry it is so long winded I've got the latest updates on my iPad Air tried resetting it, cleaned out the cookies etc.
Thanks

Weird...cd plays on mbp but only some tracks play in car cd player

really weird. all tracks are aiff files
the burned cd seems to play fine on my computer but only some of the tracks will play on my car cd player.

There seems to be an uneasy and uncertain truce between burned optical media and its players. The two best actions are :
try a different brand of media, or use CD-R instead of CD-RW. I find the "R" versions more forgiving.
use a cleaning disk to muck out the car's player. Players in cars get filthy.

.mov file in Quicktime: Audio OK, Video not OK

Reposting this as a new topic, since it was buried in the other thread.
I have a small HD video camera that records .mov files to an SD flash card.
I get audio, but no video. The Quicktime movie inspector says the format is "mbarella AVC encoder 3avcCM@" - then an apparently random selection of symbols that I don't see on my keyboard..
I have bought and activated the Quicktime pro key.
The movie properties window tells me the Video Track in in H.264 format - but I use H.264 a lot, and never have a problem with it.
It's not just one file that is problematic - every video file fails to show on my laptop, though the video files play back without a problem on the camera.
I can't open the file in Quicktime, Real Player, VLC, itunes, iphoto, MPEG Stream clip, or Final cut. I used to be able to open files from this camera on my laptop, but suspect I have upgraded and lost functionality. Saved files that used to play in Quicktime and in iphoto now do not play video - audio is fine, but not video.
I have downloaded the Perian add-on, but that has made no difference.
Any thoughts? I can send a short test file from the camera if necessary.
Hope you have a good weekend!
Best wishes

Hi Jon - test file sent by email to your address in profile, from my rob....{at}gmail address.
File received and examined. Appears to be a codec problem. Suspect the camera may be using a custom/hybrid encoder. QT is very touchy about such things. Was able to open and play it in both older version of VLC and new version which installed today. Tried transcoding the result to standard MP4 file but the results were not satisfactory.
Test.mp4
If you download/play this test, you will note that the pan portion is very poorly rendered. Stepping the clip frame-by-frame seems to display some frames out of their natural order. In addition, the clip looses two seconds of playback time as if some frames were either lost during the transcode or the original file had a varying frame rate which was reset to a fixed rate and time reference in the transcoded file. This seems to be confirmed by analysis of the HandBrake conversion below...
FILE0055.m4v
Used a custom TV preset I happen to be testing in latest Snow Leopard version of HandBrake to create the file which does play back the same as you original file in the VLC player. This preset, among other things, duplicates the original frame rate variations. In this case, analysis indicates the frame rate excursion to be 29.970 -6.008/+30.280 fps which plays the clip in 12.07 seconds and is only 0.03 seconds longer than your original file. The downside to this is the fact that the preset as used here doubles the video rate and quadruples the audio data rate.
You might perform a search to see if a QT component is required for proper viewing of camera content. (I.e., a component that was originally installed on the system that used to play the files--e.g., check software disc that may have come with the camera.) Otherwise, my only suggestion would be to download the latest version of HandBrake and see if you can transcode the files for playback using the standard or currently configured component set installed on your system.
Good Luck,

I have a problem installing itunes (10.7)....it says that i've installed itunes successfully, but when I try to open itunes, it says that itunes have stopped working!

i have a problem installing itunes (10.7)....it says that i've installed itunes successfully but when I click on the shortcut, a popup box states that "Itunes have stopped working and asks me to either search via windows for solution or close program"

Yes, you should be on Quicktime version 7.7. by now. Have you ever used Software Update?

IPad Mail Unable to play QuickTime attachment

I have an iPad.
I received an e-mail via "Mail" which included a QuickTime attachment (4.7MB) but when I click on it to play, it comes up with "Mail cannot open this attachment.
iPad is synced to the latest iTunes version.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem or why this is happening?
Thanks

Probably because the iPad's mail does not support that particular format. The tech specs for the iPad says:
Mail attachment support
Viewable document types: .jpg, .tiff, .gif (images); .doc and .docx (Microsoft Word); .htm and .html (web pages); .key (Keynote); .numbers (Numbers); .pages (Pages); .pdf (Preview and Adobe Acrobat); .ppt and .pptx (Microsoft PowerPoint); .txt (text); .rtf (rich text format); .vcf (contact information); .xls and .xlsx (Microsoft Excel)
The attachment may play with an app such as GoodReader. When in Mail if you touch and hold the the attachment should should get options for which app to open the attachment in.
