Playlist for Quicktime 6.5 ???

Hi
I use Windows XP Pro, and Quicktime 6.5 . I think quicktime is great, but its lacking some important KEY features. Where is the playlist?
I know about the favourite list, but that's not the same, cause it requires manually switching. I got several movies in parts, and would like to view them all continousaly, without having to click and open the next part all the time.
Apple are supposed to be Microsofts biggets treats, and are known for good service, good products, and stabile OS in comparistion to Microsoft who fails most of it.
Still Microsoft Mediaplayer is more user friendly. It got a playlist, so I can add all parts and view it continousaly there. But it doesn't play .mov files. So I can not do the same with my split .mov files as they have to be viewed in QuickTime, who does not got a playlist for unknown reasons.
Is there a add-on for Windows XP, which I can use to get a playlist? And are Apple planning to implement such handy tool in the future? I'm quite surprised that they havent already implemented it. I read the presentation of Quicktime 7.0, but there was no playlist mentioned in the features. WHY???
All I want is a quicktime where I can add files to be played, as a playlist. Im not talking about merging movies. I would still like to see which movieparts are added to the list, and the order.
I have tried to add those parts into one quitcktime window, but it doesn't get the right order. I have tried and watched so I know that it mixes up the parts 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 of that movie. It doesnt list the part names either, so I can not correct the order of which they are played.
THATS WHY A PLAYLIST WOULD BE VERY VERY USEFUL. I'm trying to make a point here, because I should not be the first to tell Apple about this. But if I am, then I apologize for my language. At least Apple should be aware of this now, and do their best to add a playlist in the future.
I have also read about the streaming servers, but thats for use over internet it says. Not for local use on my harddrive.
Because if Apple want to be the best, they should also have the most userfriendly software. They would not want people to manually change the files all the time.
I've read about some add-on for Mac users, where you can add and queque files for quicktime to play. Sounds like a playlist. But did not find any add-on for Windows XP who does the trick.
I hope you can supply me with information about how I can get a real working playlist in my quicktime, cause its quite annoying to change file manually, when all I want to do is watch the movies continuously.
Thanks in advance.

As you have discovered, QuickTime Player has no playlist feature. If you want suggest one to Apple, you can do so through the feedback page. Keep in mind that QuickTime for Windows is a free product, so it's not going to get the same sort of development resources as would a product for which you have to pay (and you pay for Windows Media Player as part of the cost of Windows XP).
As to an immediate solution, there are QuickTime-compatible players for Macs that have playlist features, so perhaps you can find one for Windows. Try searching VersionTracker for "QuickTime" and perhaps you'll find something.
Good luck.

Playlist for QuickTime

Hi
I am bunch of live stream which works perfectly on quicktime player only not on vlc.
so I want to make a playlist and add the streams and play it on quicktime, so I can use my remote to change them
thank you

Sorry, but you didn't say anything about the streams being video. iTunes, to the best of my knowledge, will not play video streams.
You might look in one of the compendium sites such as MacUpdate and see if you can find a player that would handle the streams and give you a playlist. I don't know of any such application, but there might be something out there that would work for you.
Regards.

Can i make a Playlist for movies?

hi i was wondering if there was a way to make a playlist for movies like with Windows Media Player like how you can just open several clips up at once and it plays them in order i just got Quicktime 7 Pro and im confused on how i would go about doing this if anyone could explain how to make a Playlist for movies on Quicktime id really appreciate it thanks

I can suggest two ways to do playlists with movies:
A. Use iTunes. Just as you would build a playlist with songs, do it with movies. Just drop movies inside iTunes Videos source (left column), then create a playlist and populate it with those videos. Then play it in fullscreen !
-- or --
B. Use reference movies to chain several movies. This can be done with QuickTime Pro or SimpleMovieX for example.
Here is the way to do it with SimpleMovieX (I known it better, as I'm the autor of this application) : Open first movie, go at the end, then drop the second movie, go at the end, drop the third, and so on... Then do Save RefMovie. This will just create a movie that refers to the sequence of movie, but does not contain them. You can also add chapter marks to have direct access to each individual movie with Add Chapters.

Create a playlist for the QT player....

Is it possible to have a playlist to upload video to a QT player? I would like to have a few video listed in one player. I would rather have a list then individual icons on a page. Here is a player that does what I would like QT to do. Does QT do this?

Thanks,

If you are inclined to fiddle around with HTML, or learn simple SMIL scripting, you most certainly can create a set playlist that QuickTime will play. You can do this at least 2 different ways.
1. HTML scripting, using the 'QTNEXT' parameter
2. SMIL scripting, saving the SMIL text as a QuickTime movie, embed that movie on your webpage (and uploading all of the playlist content to the same server directory).
There are excellent tutorials about these techniques available on the Apple website - search for "Quicktime HTML Scripting" and "QuickTime SMIL scripting".
I would also venture to guess that there are shareware applications out there that make the process a lot less technical. I'd start with a Google search on 'Mac shareware Quicktime'

Playlists for updating no longer exist

i am a novice...i deleted my ipod nano playlist from source list...i also updated yesterday...no i keep getting a screen when i connect my ipod to computer that reads, "songs on the ipod cannot be updated because all of the playlists for updating no longer exist. but all songs remain in library....Help!

You will find this user tip useful for resolving the missing playlist issue: Hudgie - iPod cannot sync because one or more playlists are missing

"songs..can't be updated b/c all the playlists for updating no longer exist

My Ipod was "off power" for so long that it "forgot" all its music. Now when I plug it in to my base computer, rather then synching it says "songs on the ipod "name" cannot be updated because all the playlists for updating no longer exist"

Hey.
See if this can help;

"All of the playlists for updating no longer exist"???!!

I created a few new playlists and deleted an old one in iTunes, and then when I plugged in my mini to update I get the message:
Songs on the iPod Kellee's iPod cannot be updated because all of the playlists for updating no longer exist"
There are no songs in my mini after this msg. I reset it, tried to update again, but got the same msg. Please help!!

Hi Kellee!
Why do people delete playlists?? Seems like you have the same problem someone I tried to help has. She got the exact same error message when she deleted a playlist. If I were you I would have shifted some songs around, changed the name of the playlist to something else but NOT deleted the playlist. I don't think you can get the same playlist back once you delete it. Question is why is your iPod not recognizing your new playlists and it's requesting to update the playlist you already deleted?? I'm afraid I can't help you but maybe someone else can. I just wanted to say this.

Ipod cannot be updated because all of playlists for syncing no longer exist

I think i delted the playlist for my ipod and now i get this message and my ipod wont update and i have no clue what to do

This problem arises when you use 'Sync Music - Selected playlists' to sync your iPod and then delete the playlist it has been updating from. Most people use this setting when the iPod is smaller than the iTunes library. If you haven't deliberately chosen this method, adding a smaller iPod to a larger library for the first time causes iTunes by default to make a new playlist called something along the lines of "Owner's iPod Selection". If you for any reason delete it, you will not be able to sync your iPod.
Open iTunes and create a playlist to update your iPod from, call it -iPod to make it the first playlist in the source list. You can make this a normal playlist and drag whatever you want to it or you can make it a random Smart playlist. If you are making a smart playlist limit it to just less than the size of your iPod (for example 3700MB for a 4G iPod Nano). Now connect your iPod and when it appears in the Source list click on the iPod icon to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. Go to the Music tab and choose Sync Music and the Selected playlists radio button. Choose the playlist you just made from the selection and click Apply:

HT1399 Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

Why cant I create a playlist for my music/song videos? Continuous play is also not possible in the video app on the phone!!!! previously, prior to IOS 6, it was possible to have both music videos & songs mixed in the same playlist in the music app

I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming. So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on. But the ipad is a different story. I have the music and artist but not one playlist I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this.
Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z. Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac. Which I do talk highly of all the time. But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not. Any ideas?
Thanks Al

Itunes is asking for Quicktime Version 7.5.5. or higher before opening

Hi there,
recently I had to reinstall my complete software by using the installation disc that came with my macbook. After reinstalling I updated my itunes-Version to 5.2.2. Afterwards, by clicking on the itunes-Logo in the dock in order to start itunes, I have received the failure notice "Itunes needs quicktime player version 7.5.5. or higher"
I have checked my current quicktime version, it says it is version no. 7.7. (1680.25) in greater letters and below written in smaller letters there's a different version no. saying 7.4.1. (14).
That leaves me with the question, how to find out which quicktime version is correct. And, if no. 7.7. is correct, what can I do about itunes to be able to open the programm again? Thanks in advance for any advice, you can give me.

Run System Profiler. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..."
Check under both Applications and Frameworks for Quicktime. Applications are the actual Player application itself. I believe Frameworks is the underlying system software support. If you see something different there it might be that about which iTunes is complaining. On my computer both say the same, but I'm not having the issue.
I'm guessing here but if you re-installed the system using Archive and Install, your applications were left intact and that's why your Player is 7.7, but all your system software (includingQT framework) was replaced with earlier versions which may be why the you're seeing different versions. iTunes doesn't need the Player, but it does need the underlying QT software.

Hello everybody. I am trying to reinstall my Quicktime 7 Pro after having my MacBook OSX 10.5.8 cleaned out following a hacking. I have Quicktime player and I reregistered with the purchased registration code for Quicktime 7 pro. It seems to be successfully registered with "Quicktime 7 Pro" appearing under the inserted registration code but it is not showing in Applications folder and I do not know how to access it or what to do. Thanks for reading this. I hope you can help me. Aidan from Dublin, Ireland.

How can I make a book/podcast listening playlist for a blind person?

How can I make a book/podcast listening playlist for a blind person? How can lots of content be loaded, so that no navigation is required, for hundreds of hours of enjoyment?
I wanted to create a single playlist with hundreds of hours of books and podcasts for my grandmother who is blind. Then I planned to use something like the app CarTunes which basically makes the touch screen simply a gigantic pause/play button for an already created playlist. This is perfect for a blind person. The problem: Apple no longer allows you to have a playlist with Audible Books and Podcasts. I have tried; but the podcasts and books are stripped from the playlist. It seems like all podcast and book players require navigation. (How aggravating!?)
Any help in creating hundreds of hours long spoken (selected between books and podcasts) audio content playlist for a blind person would be much appreciated!!!!

Well, good news and bad news. I found out how to tell iTunes that all my music videos are, in fact, actual "music videos" and categorize them as such. In the "Get Info" screen for a track, there is a dropdown selector where you can pick the "meta" type, such as "Music Video", "Home Video", "Movie", "TV Show", etc. This allows iTunes and iOS to think they are all music videos and play them in the same list.
Unfortunately, this is not compatable with my third party device, which is now refusing to play my music videos in a playlist and will only play them one at a time (in a single-track infinite loop no less). Very frustrating!

Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

It should be in the Users/ Shared folder.
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Note the option to check and repair Library Permissions

Are you sure that if I use my windows log in rather than my husbands, then open itunes it won't delete all his hundreds of songs and overwrite with mine?
I want to maintain my own apple ID login and he wants his but without losing his songs.....
how do i transfer the content of my itunes including apps and songs to the new computer. There doesn't seem to be an easy explanation on here. Do I just plug my iPhone in and it will all transfer?
