Playing .wav and .mpg3 files in Java fx app on macmini Lion (10.7.3)

A coder I am working with has created an app written using Java fx. I am able to open the the app .jar on a macmini running Lion (10.7.3) using Java 7 and the javafx-sdk 2.2.0-beta, but the .wav and .mpg3 files that run on a on a pc playing the app do not play on the mac mini.
Can anyone suggest how to make the sound files work?
Thank you.

Ah... I didn't know there was a connection to Pages still, in 10.7.5. When I double-click on an A-W file, there's a warning that pops up, "You can't open the application Appleworks 6 because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
I thought that meant that Pages (under 10.7.5 or higher) would not recognize the old file. (Can't somebody program it to be the default, when old A-W files are launched?)
If I'm in Pages and request to open an old A-W file, it comes in with the same formatting as the original. Nice! I think I'll still stay with Word from this point, though, as it's universally accepted.
"Rich Text" wasn't working for me converting into Word, so what I did was this (in 10.6.5.):
• Get a blank page open in Word.
• Open the folder where all the Apple Works files are. View as alphabetical list.
• Open the first A-W file and copy-all. Close that file.
• Paste into Word. Select-all and tweak the paragraph indents, which Word doesn't automatically recognize.
• Go back to the A-W icon and copy the file name
• Go to Word and "Save-As". Paste the A-W file name, with .doc ending
• Clear all the Word text from the window and repeat the process with the next A-W file.
'Sounds like a process — but I got it down to 15 converts in 10 minutes.
Many hours of this kind of fun still to come!

  • Is it possible to play .rm and .wma file with java?

    Hello Friends,
    Please tell me,
    how to play .rm and .wma file with java?
    Thanks,
    Harsh Modha

    As far as I know, you can not play those files.
    Here you have the complete list of supported formats. Hope this helps.

    Maybe you should try to convert from wma or rm to a supported format before attempting to play it.

  • Playing audio and video files in JSF (.wav,.mp3)

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to play audio and video files such as .wav,.mp3 in jsf .
    could any one please post the code for playing the wav files.
    Thanks,
    Ram

    There is no JSF component to do this, so you would have to write your own custom component to render an <object ...> element.
    Or, you can use <f:verbatim> wrapped around an html <object ...> element.

  • Why can't my Mac play wav or wmv files?

    I have recently become unable to view and listen to wav and wmv files. I have all the latest updates to Quicktime but, while Quicktime launches, it doesn't play the files. Are there some settings I don't know about? If it became corrupted, wouldn't the updates have fixed that? I can look at Youtube videos, just not the wav and wmv files people send me.
    On a possibly related note, it seems that the videos I view on Youtube are jerky - Like my computer can't keep up with the data stream, and skips frames in order to keep up with the sound. I hope I'm making sense. Is the problem with memory (or lack thereof)? I have a bad block, which has been worked around (I did a reinstall). Could that be the cause?
    Thanks in advance.

    wmv files: you need to download and install Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft).
    YouTube Flash: yes, very likely your oldish Mac is no longer up to it, but:
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.
    NOTE: On December 8, 2009 Adobe announced plans to drop Flash Player security support next year for Mac owners whose machines run PowerPC G3 processors.
    "Adobe will be discontinuing support of PowerPC-based G3 computers and will no longer provide security updates after the Flash Player 10.1 release," said Adobe in the same advisory that spelled out the seven patches. "This unavailability is due to performance enhancements that cannot be supported on the older PowerPC architecture."

  • How do you play MPG and WMV files on a MAC?

    I am no longer able to play MPG and WMV files on my MAC. I have Flip4MAC, which is I think what I used to use to play them (but not sure). All I know is that I used to be able to before but now they won't play. Do I need some sort of different software or has Microsoft started making these files in a way that won't allow MAC users to play them? If anyone is kind enough to help, please explain in the most basic terms as I'm not that computer literate.

    If the .mpg/.mpeg files are non-rights-protected you should be able to play them in Quicktime or iTunes. If the wmv files are non-rights-protected you should be able to use Flip4Mac. If the mpg/mpeg or wmv files are rights-protected you'll need the software or subscription that allows you to view copyrighted files.

  • How to play AVI and MKV files on a Mac?

    First let me say I'm converting to mac soon. Hence these questions.
    I know VLC player can play AVI and MKV files on a Mac. But I want to use DivX Plus Player cause it has a prettier user interface. Does DivX Plus Player play all AVI and MKV files on a Mac?
    Does Perian still work on the latest version of Mountain Lion?
    Does converting AVI and MKV files to MP4 using the free software Handbrake cause severe loss of quality?
    Does an App exist on the Mac App Store that can play AVI and MKV files?
    Thank you.

    There might be others out there that's just the one I have
    The macromedia Standalone Encoder does it.
    It can process multiple files in the same time as well.

  • Playing AVI and DivX files

    I've recently bought a Mac Book and am struggling to play AVI and DivX files. What seemed so easy on my old PC now seems impossible on my Mac.
    I've looked at the past forums and tried a few past suggestions, but nothing works. I've tried downloading DivX for Mac with all the codecs, VLC Media Player, Perian and I've even tried coverting through DivX Doctor II.
    What am I doing wrong?

    I don't think this fixes your problem but it at least keeps the thread going until someone with the answer posts. The one thing you didn't mention was fip4mac. I don't know it those others cover what it does or not. If you have downloaded the file you can control click on the file and select get info. When that comes us select open with. Change what ever that is to QuickTime. Sometimes that lets you view some files. I feel your pain, the change over takes a little time. Hang in there mate, it will be worth it.

    Or is there any other way to play this files?

    Thanks,

    Is it important that the music come from a video, or are you just looking to listen to music in the background, while doing something else.  If the later, you can certainly play music from the Music App, Pandora, or iHeart Radio, etc., and with the music playing, tap your home button to go to your home page and open anything else you want and the music will continue.
    I don't have any videos to try out right now, but you try the same thing out and if the music continues, it works.  If it doesn't, it doesn't.
