QT doesn't open all the way...can't see the video

I get a the thing to open but not all the way as a video would with at least the opening frame. I get just a narrow box that look like an audio file.

Videolan client - one of the single-most used video playback programs there is. It is open-source, goes on ANY Operating System, is  free and is constantly being worked on and updated.
VLC is my fall-back to play really old and unusual file formats with. I have a few ancient videos - .mpg movies I made on my Sony Cyber-Shot camera that won't play in anything else.
If VLC cannot play a file, and it is not a proprietary format locked to a specific player (like a RealMedia file or Apple's .mov file container) it means the file is corrupt.
It's really a nifty program and it offers lots of options

    Hi weaver15,
    You should try changing your home page to:
    about:home
    I think this is probably the page you are looking for. If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].

  • Very weird! Preview doesn't open all the selected items!

    I transferred 120 photos from my digital camera to a new folder.
    Then I selected them all and double-clicked, causing them to open under Preview.
    But there are gaps in what opens!
    For example, none of the photos between filenames P1030899 and P1030955 open up!
    Yet if I select the photo files in that range separately and double-click on them they open up just fine!
    Why won't all the photos open up when selecting 120 at once?!
    I never noticed any such phenomenon with my old PB...

    OK. After doing some tests with Apple Support the problem turns out to be different, and perhaps more minor than I thought. But I would very much like other people here to test this as well!
    The images are, in fact, all loading by Preview. But what happens is the first couple load, then a bunch are skipped, then others load then the ones that didn't load before are loaded.
    So what Preview is showing after they are all loaded is not the images in order of filename, but the images in load order.
    If you control-click on any image and then click the "sort by name" option (even though that option was already selected) then the images immediately re-order themselves.
    So it is more a Preview sorting bug that it doesn't re-sort itself after loading all the images.
    I guess this never happened on my older PB because of the timings involved the load order was always the same as the file order alphabetically.
    What I would like to know is - can other people duplicate this as well?
    If you have a folder with, say, 200 or so image files in it, please "select all" and double-click. This will open all the images in Preview.
    Do all the images display in order immediately? Or is it like me where the first few display in order, then there is a gap of some number of images, then later images show up then your "missing" issues show up later. (You can resort after they are all loaded of course.)
    Thanks,
    doug

  • File doesn't open all the time

    I have created a numbers file that has several different sheets and on each sheet different tables.
    There is a lot of referencing in the file from one table to another.
    First it was about 307Kb (14 sheets) and then, adding some new sheets (up to 19) and tables it went up to 549 Kb, that's when the problem started. Sometimes the file opens, sometimes it doesn't, I get the colored ball and I can only force quit. When I re-start the computer it mostly opens.
    What can be the reason for this? Is there a maximum of referencing (there are lots of VLOOKUP's?
    Best regards,

    (1) It seems that something is wrong in your system so First point keep a backup of a version which open.
    (2) as the odd behaviour doesn't strike at every attempt, trying to open in an other user account will not be fully meaningful but try to do it.
    If it fail, we will know that the oddity is not specific to your original account.
    (3) If we can't know if the problem is specific to your account, quit the app and move its preference file :
    <startupVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Numbers. plist
    on the desktop
    Restart the app and use it this way for a period of time.
    If the problem disappear, we will know that the culprit was the preferences file.
    (4) save you document with an other name as a Numbers '08 one.
    I guess that some formulas will be dropped in the process but don't worry.
    Open the newly created '08 document with Numbers '09.
    During the process, I hope that possible oddities will be dropped.
    Open also the original '09 document so, you will be able to easily use copy-paste to restore thge formulas which may be gone in the process.
    (5) as the oddity strike randomly, we can't exclude a material problem :
    a Ram failure, a HD failure
    So, running the Harware test application available on the install DVD may be a good thing to do.
    (6) the problem is not linked to the number of VLOOKUPs
    (7) I quite forgot to urge you to check the document memory requirement.
    Before opening it or even before launching Numbers, launc "Activity Monitor" which is available in Applications:Utilities.
    Then launch Numbers and at last, open the doc.
    You will see how many Kbytes are required in RAM and on the HD (iWork apps make an heavy use of "virtual memory" which is HD space)
    Maybe your installed RAM is a bit short or maybe your HD is too filled leaving an insufficient space for a correct behaviour.

    on a side note - DH, i don't know you personally, but you've been a wealth of information over the years. I'll miss you when Apple finally kills off Final Cut PRO for good. Thanks for all the good times

  • The new Firefox opens all the old tabs it closed with, when it starts. I'd rather just start a new session. How can I make that the default setting?

    The new Firefox re-opens all the tabs it closed with; and, I'd rather just start a new session, as the default setting. How can I do this? It would make it easier on me, the machine, and the Internet feed, not to reload automatically a bunch of tabs that were just closed. There must be someway to fix this. This happens on my brother's Windows computer, as well; and, it's running Firefox 4. Thanks for your help.

    Make that "Firefox ->Preferences -> General -> When Firefox starts: "Show my windows and tabs from last time" is not selected as this is not the default.
    Basically this setting will make Firefox start with whatever windows and tabs that were last open when a user closes Firefox by way of File ->Quit/Exit as if Firefox was never closed.

  • Firefox updated today and now when I reply to an e-mail, my reply box won't open all the way.

    When I reply to an e-mail the box opens, but won't open all the way. When I try to make it bigger it just scrolls back up so I cannot see what I'm replying.

    HI love3000,
    Do you have an example url of where this happens? As well as a screenshot of the before and after ?[[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]]
    This would help investigation for the web compatibility team.
    You can also try to refresh the page or [[How to clear the Firefox cache]]

  • After iTunes update, email won't send, only receive. Email setup form won't open all the way.

    What can I do to get the add email form to open all the way. It won't scroll down enough to let me enter outgoing mail server information. When I forced it by hitting the enter button and blindly fill in each box, it seemed to work; but when I checked my email, I found that I could receive mail but mail wouldn't send. It kept telling me I have the wrong user name or password, and of course I don't. This only started after the latest iTunes upgrade.
    The other problem is that I need to set it up as a pop account and the only way I can get that option instead of iMap is to fool it by typing in one wrong letter on my email which I correct when the page comes up giving me both iMap and Pop options.
    Anyone else having this scroll problem. It's only on my iPad 2 and no on my iPhone of iPod touch

  • HT3775 BDMV" can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.  How do I solve this?? Am I losing all the video files I have in my camcorder??? Please help me!!! Thanks

    I am downloading the memory card from my camcorder into my MacBook Pro with Retina display. It usually popped to the file called AVCHD then CLIP to show all the videos. But not this time, it automatically changed to BDMV. I do not have idea how this happened while I left my notebook on and I was away for a couple of hours then back to the living room to work on each video as to type name of file etc.
    Now, I cannot even open them into CLIP because I am still getting BDMV with a popped sign that said BDMV can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. (I do not even understand what this is supposed to mean??) also with the bottom message that stated "Quicktime Player created this file yesterday at 1:52pm"  I am like uhhh how can QT player do this without my authorization??
    Please help me how to solve these and get all of my videos back that I saved in my camcorder.  Let you know that I tried to insert the memory card back into my camcorder and all these videos are gone.   Now I am having a HUGE headache because of this!!
    What should I do now???

    HI,
    Did you ever figure out how to get them back? The same thing happened to me yesterday. I was able to open the file in VLC media player (you can download this app), but the file had been corrupted. It was only the last clip I had recorded, all the others were lost. Even the clip that will play is messed up

    When you said you have no fax machines on your line, that does include computers directly connected to the phone line?
    The reason that I ask is a computer with a dial-up modem (a non broadband modem) that can connect to your phone line, can have software that makes the computer act as a fax machine.

  • My iPhone 5 dies at 20-24% it doesn't go all the way to 0%. Will apple replace my phone or fix my phone for free since its hardware problem and I have no money. This is my second iphone 5 replacement.

    My iPhone 5 dies at 20-24% it doesn't go all the way to 0%. Will apple replace my phone or fix my phone for free since its hardware problem and I have no money. This is my second iphone 5 replacement. I have no apple care so I'm worried. My phone has NEVER touched water! I only get 1/5 of battery use. I've also spent 30$ at the apple store on screen protectors for nothing! I really don't have 220$ nor 50$ I am on a strict budget. I believe I have to pay 220 not 50 ford a phone replacement for accidental damage. I don't know what category this falls under. I really need a new phone or battery. HELP! Will I have to pay? Also my screen lighting is all topsy-tervy every I put my screen on highest it won't work I have to wait about a minute? Forgot to mention that my apps exit out by themselves all the time when Im using them.

    So, have you tried a reset?  Restore from backup? Restore as new?  You seem to have a few problems but do not mention any action taken to resolve them.  What have screen protectors to do with anything?
