Problems with opening video files?

In CS5 I would always save my in-progress .gifs as Quicktime Movies. Since upgrading, I have not been able to open any of these Quicktime files, and I also cannot open .mp4 files that I created in Photoshop CS6. Anyone have an idea as to why I'm having this issue/what I can do to fix it? I don't have any plugins installed, if I should.

Some security tool or whatever is possibly blocking the relevant components. Turn any such stuff off (temporarily) amnd try again. Also make sure you have sufficient user privileges.

Hi! I´m having problems with showing video files in Qlab on my Macbook Air. A sound/video technician told me to "blow out" my Mac. Was told to use cmd+ r when restarting. Is this the right way?

Hi! I´m having problems with showing video files in Qlab on my Macbook Air. It started suddenly. Consulted a sound/video technician who told me to "blow out" my Mac. Was told to use cmd+r when restarting. Is this the right way to clean up my Mac? And is it likely that some kind of bug is causing problems for Qlab to show video files? I´ve already tried with a bunch of different video files and sometimes Qlab plays them and sometimes not. I need the Qlab playlist for a theatre show and only have a week until showtime so starting to really worry. Is there anyone out there who can help?

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.

It should unzip if you double-cick.
What are you seeing happen when you do that?
Select a .zip file in the Finder and Get Info (cmd-i). What is set for it to Open With. It should be Archive Utility.

Problem with opening project file from my friend

My friend save his project and gave me it on CD. Of course he gave me all needed files like source videos. It's videos from the same type of DSLR clips which I also have. So I making my own movies also with clips in this codes or similar. My DSLR is Canon 600D but DSLR of my friend is Canon 550D - clips from his DSLR are of course also written form my system. So everything seems to be OK.
Now i try to open this project in my PC but it doesn't work at all. I can see only this message:
My friend work on CS 5 but I work on CS 6. I don't believe that Adobe Premiere Pro can't open a older type of his project files. Please help.

Sequence preset? I don't know anything. But I think that is unneceserry even to know. Because why sequence preset can be important? Preset is only a preset. So I can't see any reason preset was a main problem with it.

Problem with opening a file in its application using Runtime

Dear experts,
excuse me for my ignorance, but I am facing a problem and I would really
appreciate some help. I am working on a java program in which I want the user
to have the ability to save the contents of a JTable into a file of his preference (the file could be of any type i.e xls, txt, doc...) and then open this file in its
default application (i.e the txt file through notepad, the xls file through excel etc..).
Everything works fine with the code below, if the filePath does not contain blank spaces. I did some search on the forun and the web, and also tried to
find a solution through the great link
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-12-2000/jw-1229-traps.html but I still
cannot solve the problem. Below I quote the part of the code (actually the actionPerformed dunction of the equivallent button) which is responsible for the opening of the file.
    excelButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
       public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
         //saveFileName is the File that I want to open
         String filePath = "\""+saveFileName.toString()+"\"";
         System.out.println(""+filePath);
         try
          String cmd="cmd.exe /C start "+filePath;
          String cmd="cmd.exe /C start C:\\Documents and Settings\\test.xls";
          Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
         }catch(IOException ec){}
     });Thank you in advance for your help!
Sincerely yours,
JIM

       public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
         String filePath = "\""+saveFileName.toString()+"\"";
         System.out.println(""+filePath);
         try
           String cmd="explorer "+filePath;
           Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
         }catch(IOException ec){}
     });I hope it can be useful to somebody!! By this code, I can make a button (in my case the excelButton) to open any file in its default application. Keep up the great work you are doing guys!!

Problem with opening pdf files in Explorer

I'm trying to use a button to open a pdf file. It's always
worked in the past, but now I'm receiving an "object error" and the
pdf is not loading. Does anyone know if this is a problem with the
new version of Internet Explorer? Any work arounds?
Here's my code:
on (release) {
getURL("NameofDoc.pdf", "_blank");

Hi,
1. It's Adobe Reader XI, ver 11.0.08
I guess the version of the plug-in corresponds with the version of the reader itself?
2. "Page cannot be displayed", mostly

Does anyone have a problem with opening PDF files in iBook after updating the program recently

I need to try to open the pdf file a few times before it goes in iBook.
It is making me look like a fool cos I use iBook for my presentation to my clients

I'm presumably having a similar problem with pdf's in ibook. It seemed to work fine until about two updates ago. We're using ipad II's with ibook (latest version as of today) for our board of director's reports. These are sometimes several hundred pages and password protected pdf's. Now the more whiney members of the board are *******' at me, so I need to find a solution relatively quickly. Is there a way to back off the updates?
What it does.
When a PDF is chosen to open from the library, ibook open a "blank" file -- showing only the ibook background.
One can try closing and re-opening the PDF and after three or four times it'll open -- seems to be random.
These PDFs are created in Adobe Acrobat 9.

Problem with opening doc. files in pages '09

Hello, can anybody help me, ever since i installed " snow leopard" v10.6.2, pages '09 doesn't open doc. files ( word ) anymore.
Even documents produced in pages en ""saved as" a word document can't be opened again.
Keep receiving pop up whit message " can not be opened"

You need to manually install the 10.6.2 "Combo" version, there were problems with just using the regular update.

Problem with opening PDF files in Google Chrome browser

We have a web page displaying links to dynamically generated PDF files located on the internal repository. This files are not just text PDF files but PDF forms created using XFA technology. This means that they must be opened and filled only in Adobe Reader and not in Foxit Reader or browser's built-in PDF viewer.
Now, the problem is that a Google Chrome browser opens any PDF file using its own PDF viewer. And I want to force this browser to open PDF files in Adobe Reader.
How can I achieve this without disabling 'Chrome PDF Viewer' plugin since I can't do this for all users of our web site?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. We use LiveCycle ES3.

Each user would have to set each browser individually.
Note: I don't think it's possible to set the default PDF viewer with code for every user who visits the site.
See the following link to enable Adobe Reader as the default PDF viewer in different browsers:
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
Note: Not all PDF viewer browser plug-ins support PDF submissions, and most 3rd party viewers may not support forms created with LiveCycle or forms with Extended Reader Rights enabled.

Problem with opening PDF files from JSF page using SDO

Hi all,
I'm new with JSF and was attempting to read a PDF file from a Database using SDO and JSF. The code below throws an exception when casting from DataObject to Blob. The getLcDoc() method was created by WSAD when I dragged an SDO relational record onto the JSF page. This method returns an DataObject type which I tried casting to a Blob type before using it further. However, an exception is thrown.
Any feedback is appreciated.

try {
               FacesContext faces = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
               HttpServletResponse response =(HttpServletResponse) faces.getExternalContext().getResponse();
               Blob file= (Blob)getLcDoc().get("ATTACH");
               int iLength = (int)(file.length());
               response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/pdf");
               response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=Attachment");
               response.setHeader("Expires","0");
               response.setHeader("Cache-Control","must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
               response.setHeader("Pragma","public");

     } catch(Exception ex){
          System.out.println("Error while reading file : " + ex.getMessage());
     }

Hi...I found out that there is actually no need to use a Blob object at all. You can simply call the OutputStreams write() method and pass the DataObject.getBytes() method that returns a byte[] array. The revised code is shown at the end of this posting.
However, a few other teething problems exist:
1. This works well only if I specify the content type in response.setHeader() method. What if my users upload different types of files, is there a way that the browser opens according to the file type without setting the content type?
2. I still have a problem opening PDF files, even if I specify - response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/pdf");
I get the message - The file is damaged and could not be repaired
3. I would also like this to open the attachment in a new window and using target="_blank" doesn't seem to work as seen below:
<h:commandLink
                                             styleClass="commandLink" id="link1" action="#{pc_DocumentDetailsRead.doLink1Action}" target="_blank">
                                             <h:outputText id="text5" styleClass="outputText"
                                                  value="Click Here"></h:outputText>
                                        </h:commandLink>
------------------------Revised code-----------------------------------------
FacesContext faces = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
               HttpServletResponse response =(HttpServletResponse) faces.getExternalContext().getResponse();
               response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/msword");
               response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=Attachment");
               response.setHeader("Expires","0");
               response.setHeader("Cache-Control","must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
               response.setHeader("Pragma","public");
               ServletOutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
               os.write(getLcDoc().getBytes("ATTACH"));
               os.flush();
               os.close();

Adobe Reader 10 problem with opening pdf files

Ever since I downloaded and installed Adobe Reader 10, I have been unable to open .pdf files from the Internet. When
I try to download them, I only the get the option of saving the file, not opening it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

We had similar problems with both the upgrade to 9.4.2 and 10.0.1. We would either get the download/save screen or a black screen would appear and eventually error out and freeze up the machine when we tried to hit pages that loaded pdfs stored in Oracle. We found the pdfs would load when using Chrome or Firefox.
We're running winXP SP3 and mainly have users using IE 7 and IE 8. We were eventually able to solve the problem by doing the following:
Implementing the code fix outlined in this thread (Response.charset = null;) in the page that pulled pdfs from Oracle: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3476821
Uninstalling and reinstalling the base version of Reader (9.4.0 or X.0) from users' machines that had gone through the update from 9.x to X.x
Rebooting the machine after each uninstall or install
Updating the Reader to either 9.4.2 or 10.0.1
Now we have users who can successfully load the pdfs from Oracle who are running either 9.4.2 or 10.0.1.
Hope this helps!

I have a problem with opening PDF files downloaded from anywhere!

I can view them ok in Safari, but when I save and download them, they are displayed with the Preview image and will not open.
When I click them, a message says that 'the file may be damaged or not recognised by Preview'.
I have cleaned up my computer (apple help ) but still, the problem remains. I downloaded the same file to my MacBook pro, and it saved it in the usual PDF format, (completely different image from above), and opened perfectly well.
I have checked the settings in Preview and they seem to be set correctly so that Preview will open PDF files.
What next?
I am desperate!
Jennifer

See if you can delete any Adobe PDF plugins from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/. Then quit and re-open your web browser and try again.

Problem with open PDF files

update I did, as you've mentioned, and now it works - let's say in 95% When I receive an e-mail with PDF, I hit "save", and right away I cannot open the file. However, when I will go back to e-mails list, and wiev once again the same e-mail, I can see the PDF directly from the level of mail. Bit strange, however big improvement comparing to the former situation. Perhaps there is some kind of bug in stock e-mail app?

Hi, I have following problem with my Xperia Z3:- when I receive the e-mail with PDF as attachement, I can just save it, but cannot open it. It says: "you have no application installed, please install one.."- when I save the file, and open it from File Manager, I can easily open it with Acrobat, Foxit or any other. There's no problem- when I try to do the same directly from "Downloaded" apps, again I cannot open it As I receive some part of e-mails with PDF's, the best way would be to open them directly after saving from e-mail client. Saving them, and then going to File Manager to open makes it more complicated. Do you know, what can be the problem here? It concern stock e-mail client, Android 5.0 Hope you may know some solution

Problem with some video files after upgrading to iPhoto'11 ...

Hi,
I just realized that after converting from iPhoto'09 to iPhoto'11, I found 176 small video files that don't play anymore. All problem files, can be found in iPhoto with a «.MOV» search. When played I get this error message (it's in French :
The problem is that I cannot find any file nested in my iPhoto Library corresponding to the iPhoto's info (name or size). I get no corresponding file. Also most of these «.MOV» files seem to have another file that plays and that is bigger. It could be the original file or maybe my real file ... As an example, one «.MOV» file is named MVI_6480Web and the original that works is named MVI_6480. Not all problem files as the Web suffixe though.
I did not pass all those 176 files one by one, so I am not sure what is the exact problem. I wonder if some of you can help me understand what is going on ?
Regards.

you bought an upgrade to a separate application. i'm sure the iLife'11 manuals don't state a guarantee of compatibility with any appletv?
i'm not saying this is definitely the cause, but in the past there has usually been a requirement for an update when new iLife products were released.
Is it so unlikely to have an upgrade of ATV 1stG ?
the original appletv has been replaced and as such i doubt there will be any more software updates at all.
