QT not open when clicking on .mov link

I have searched and searched for an answer to this and can't find it.
Scenario: When I click on a .wmv link, Windows Media Player opens and plays the file. This is great!
Problem: When I click on a .mov link, nothing happens except a new tab (IE7) opens up, then when the download finishes in status bar, it says "Done" and nothing appears on the page nor does QT open.
I CAN goto File>Open URL and copy and paste, but this gets irritating!
I want to click a .mov link and have QT automatically open.
YES, I have file types of mov set to go with QT....
Any help would be appreciated.

Yes.
We do make better stuff and encode it in QuickTime containers for easy viewing.
How hard to copy/paste a URL?
If the browser is set to open the QuickTime file format via its plug-in a click on the link will do what it's told and the file will open in a browser window.
Your Mac users at these forums could learn a trick or two by using QuickTime Media Link files.
They are also text based links but they hold some special "magic" only QuickTime could deliver:

  • Adobe is not opening when clicking on a link in Internet Explorer

    We are using pdf format is order to give our clients detailled information about their accounts.
    Unfortunately, when the client clicks on our link in Internet Explorer, our client receives an error message of adobe (needs to be c
    losed, we would like to apologize for the inconvenience).
    If the client opens up his adobe first, then he can open his file while clicking on the link.
    According to us, this must be an error between Internet Explorer and Adobe.
    Another thing is, that when the clients logs in as administrator of the computer, it works. If the client is not the administrator a
    nd is in another session, it is not working. We already have created a new session of Windows too.
    We already installed the latest version of Acrobat Reader and the latest version of IE7. Unfortunately, without any results.
    Can you please give us a solution?
    Yours sincerely,

    I have identified the cause of this problem. Spybot S &D 2 Beta was installed on this machine, and it was the culprit. I have informed the vendor, and replaced it with production version 162 of Spybot S &D. The problem is no longer present.

  • Book icon not opening when clicked

    I have an odd problem here.
    In my Contents tab on the left side, I have eight Book icons
    that, when clicked, open to reveal the Help topics inside them-
    just like any normal RoboHelp project would work. However, the very
    last Book icon in the list does not open when clicked. I checked
    the original file and all of the help topics are under the Book
    like they should be. When I compile the file and do a View Primary
    Layout, this last Book icon opens correctly. The problem only
    occurs once the project is built into the software I'm doing the
    Help for. When I move the Book icon up in the list (so it's not the
    last one anymore) it works correctly. But then the Book icon that
    becomes the last icon doesn't open when clicked. So whichever Book
    icon is last in the list doesn't open when clicked. Anyone have any
    clue what would cause this? Thanks alot.

    Hi Scott45 and welcome to the RH community.
    Have you tried deleting the book and adding it again? Also
    you can open the project's .HHC file in Notepad (or something
    similar) and check that the relevant TOC entry is displayed
    correctly there.

  • Firefox does not open when clicking on the icon, the firefox.exe process consumes 99 % of the CPU and my computer runs slowly.

    I have been a happy user of Firefox for many years. Around last April first I opened Firefox and was offered an update to v 4.42.0.0 which I accepted. Installation seemingly went well. I forget now exactly what happened but the result has been that ever since April 1 I haven’t been able to open the Firefox browser when clicking on the Firefox icon. My computer now was running very slowly. I tried to uninstall Firefox, but a popup told me I couldn’t because Firefox was in use. This confused me because I couldn’t see it being used. Only now I have found that on Task Manager processes that “firefox.exe” was consuming 99 % of the CPU. After removing firefox.exe by clicking End Process my computer ran better. I uninstalled Firefox I had on my computer and installed Firefox 5.0. Unfortunately I have the same problems: Firefox does not open when clicking on the icon, the firefox.exe process consumes 99 % of the CPU and my computer runs slowly.

    Born2die! Brilliant. I am a desktop clicker and never knew Firefox had a safe mode.
    Thank You!
    I was unable to start in safe mode initially. The second time I disabled all of the Add-Ons and she started up just fine. I enabled them one by one hoping to track down the culprit but the problem seems to have gone away.
    BTW I am running ver. 3.6.8 (in response to cor-el's earlier post) and
    Firefox is in the process of downloading 3.6.10 (which I am starting to think may have been what caused this whole problem to begin with)
    Incidentally, whats up with all of the Java Console Add Ons?
    I have:
    Java Console 6.0.11, Java Console 6.0.13, Java Console 6.0.15
    Java Console 6.0.17, Java Console 6.0.20, and Java Console 6.0.21
    What are they? Do I need them? Can I uninstall them? Is this due to using Open Office?
    Also, .NET Framework 0.0.0 Should I uninstall it?

    the problem started when my computer screen broke from something falling on it, the screen was replaced but the people that fixed it for me told me there may be some hard disk issues when a problem like this happens, they ran their own checks and found nothing and i was given my laptop back, then when i tried to use it, i found this problem. everything else works fine.
    i have shutdown and re-started my computer multiple times and i have also re-started finder multiple times, both having no effect

  • SkillBuilders Modal Page not opening when click edit link in a Manual Tabul

    Hello,
    This thread is related to a recent thread I created (Column Link is not working on a Manual Tabular Form I am using Apex 4.1.1.00.27, Oracle DB 10.2.0.5.0.
    In summary, I have a collection that retrieves the information from the EMP table, a manual tabular form based on that collection, and a link in the DEPTNO field that branch to another page with a Form based on the DEPT table.
    What I want to accomplish is to call the DEPT Form as a modal page that opens from my EMP Page.
    What I did so far:
    1. DEPT Page uses the popup template and branch to itself.
    2. The Link Attribute of the Link Column (DEPTNO) is set to: onclick= *"return false;"*
    3. I created a DA using jQuery Selector: *td[headers="LINK"] a*. Action: SkillBuilders Modal Page plug-in. URL Location: Attribute of Triggering Element. Attribute Name: href. Event Scope: live (Dynamic in Apex 4.2).
    4. Changed the Application Security to Allow Embed in Frames.
    My problem is that when I click the DEPTNO column, is it not opening the Modal Page.
    I created an example on apex.oracle.com in case some of you want to look into it:
    Workspace: EDIAZJORGE
    Username: test
    Password: test123
    App Name: Sample App
    App Number: 12231
    I appreciate any help.
    Thank you,
    Erick

    You were using a wrong jQuery selector. There are no columns with headers "LINK". Evidently, you want the modal to open through clicking the icon in the "DEPTNO" column, so all that is required is to change the selector to
    td[headers="DEPTNO"] aYou can always easily test your selectors when you use a tool like Firebug. Simply run the selector in the console, and it'll show you all selected object. In your case, executing $('td[headers="LINK"] a') showed nothing. Dropping "a" still gave nothing. At that point i was pretty sure there were no columns with such a header...

  • New Tabs for Firefox will not open unless clicking on a link while browsing.

    To expand on what the question is, Every time I try to open a new tab, it just doesn't work. New tabs only open when I click a link that also opens the page in that link in a new tab. Even when I try to do the same thing through the file menu and Ctrl+T. Otherwise, Firefox is running normally. Yesterday, I downloaded a program called "FLV player" that I knew came with an ask.com toolbar but for some reason, switched ask.com to the homepage for Firefox. After that, I switched the homepage for Firefox back to its default page.

    '''''Ask Toolbar''''' can cause that problem. Uninstall it.

  • Additional tabs will not open when clicking the "+" tab at the top of the screen or by clicking "file + new tab"

    I've been using Firefox for several years and just ran across a problem within the past two weeks. I usually have several tabs open at the same time while browsing the Internet. Suddenly, when I tried to open a new tab by clicking on the "+" tab at the top right of the screen, a new tab would not open. Then I tried clicking on "file + new tab" and a new tab still won't open. If I click on a link within an email, then a new tab will open, but I cannot choose to open a new tab. Please help! Thanks! :)

    In addition to the above:
    Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions.
    You can uninstall and remove Java Console extensions, you do not need them to run Java applets.

  • MAIL PROGRAM WON'T OPEN when click on email link

    When I click on an email address when on the web, nothing happens.

    I would ideally like my gmail to open, but cannot find a way to set this up in Safari.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

  • New tab does not open when clicking on + tab

    I'm trying to open a new tab. I click on the + tab and nothing happens

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

  • When I open a PDF page that has links they do not open when I click on them

    When I open a PDF page in Firefox 4.0 that has links, the links will not open when I click on them. If I try that in Safari, or when I had the earlier versions of FF, I had no problem. Is this just a setting issue?

    That is a limitation of iOS. They will view correctly when you view them in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat.

  • HT2500 links will not open when I click on them in email

    links will not open when I click on them in email

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).<br />
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]<br />
    <br />
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.<br />
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • New windows in Firefox 29 on Windows 8.1 don't open fully maximized when clicked through a link

    New problem in firefox 29:
    When I click a link that opens the new page in a new window, the window pops open in the last partially maximized state that it was in. Should I maximize the new window (in Windows 8.1) and close it and re-click the original link, the window opens again in the partially maximized state, not the last fully maximized state that I previously closed it in.
    To create it as I've encountered it:
    -go to https://news.google.com
    -click on any article. the default behavior should be to open the article in a new window
    -the window won't be maximized in my experience
    -you can maximize the window and then close the window/ article
    -re-click on the same article and the new window should appear again in the non-maximized state, not the fully maximized state that you closed it in previously
    One point of note. Right-clicking the same link that opens the new window and specifically choosing "Open Link in New Window" DOES open the new window in a fully maximized state. I repeat, the new window does open fully maximized when you choose "Open Link in New Window" from the right-click drop downs menu. But, this doesn't happen with the simple left-click, which I'm concerned with.

    Reverted back to version 28.0, 29 just isnt working, layout is a mess. (Ok i got the old layout back by installing and setting up Classic Theme Restorer, but once you remove the orange title bar, the screen resize bug appears.) Also its a very bad thing such a large graphical overhaul took place without prior notice. If i wanted google Chrome i would have just installed that, dont need FF to provide me with it. Might upgrade again if bugs and layout are changed, otherwise ill stay with 28.0 or maybe start using Waterfox.

  • Is it possible to switch between whether or not the previously clicked button or link remains highlighted when you go back a page?

    When clicking on a link in Firefox, it selects that link and takes the user to the connected page. If the user then goes back a page, different situations happen on different (but identical) computers. On some computers, the previous clicked link stays highlighted/selected and then the Tab key goes to the next link. On other computers, going back clears the previous selected link, in which causes the Tab key to start scrolling through item from the top of this page. Is there a way to set Firefox to do this one way or the other? Is this a Windows issue and not an Firefox issue?

    You can avoid that by opening the link in a new tab with a middle-click.<br />
    The you can close that tab with a middle click on that tab after you are done and go back to the tab with the links.
