QTVR Movies won't play properly in iWeb

QuickTime VR panoramic movies won't play properly. Doesn't seem to matter what kind of iWeb page I use. The movies respond normally when opened with QuickTime Player. The seem to fail only when placed into iWeb.
First, there are no VR controls visible. What controls there are don't respond when clicked. Second, the mouse curson doesn't change when moved over the movie placeholder. Third, the only image within the movie placeholder is the first frame.
I tried several QTVR panorama movies with the same result. I also verified that none of the available movie controllers will function. I have already searched on QTVR in this forum and found none of the few suggestions offered to work.
Any new ideas?

We've recieved your file and got it to work in iWeb. Here's what to do:
As always, place a text box in iWeb the size of the dimentions of your QTVR movie. Put some text in the box something like "QTVRMOVIECODEHERE"
After Publishing your site locate your "QTVRMOVIECODEHERE" text and replace it with
<embed src="http://URLWhereYourFileis.mov" width="320" height="240"></embed>
Another way you can do it is store the QTVR file on your host. If you are using .mac you can store it in your sites folder or Web folder. From the sites folder the URL for your file would be homepage.mac.com/YourUserName/YourFolder(if any)/YourQTVRMovieName.mov
Then place a hyperlink to your files URL in your iWeb page.
Here is the working QTVR file in an iWeb page:

Gallery movie won't play properly on new Macbook Air

I uploaded a movie last night, but when I try to play it on my new Macbook Air, using Safari, it only loaded 1/4 the way and won't play any further. But it plays fine on my Windows computer. Every time I try to go back and play it, it gets stuck in the same place. It won't load any further, and I can't get it to reload from the beginning (where the loading progress bar starts at the very beginning). Google Chrome won't play it at all. I'm assuming this is a quicktime problem. I haven't done the last Mac OS update yet (I'm at work, my Macbook's at home). Any guesses on what I need to do? Just update the OS? And if I reinstall Quicktime, how do I do that?

Any guesses on what I need to do?
I would not want to hazard a guess until I can check the instantaneous data rate at the time of the problem. Got the URL and a time where the file stops?

IDVD autoplay movie won't play in DVD player

My IDVD movie won't play in a DVD player when created in autoplay mode. It plays fine on my computer both in preview and on my computer's DVD player program and it works fine if I create a menu and button, just not if I create it in autoplay mode. I've tried it on my work compter and three DVD players and it won't play in any of them. Can anyone help, please?

Hi Sue
Thanks for responding.
I used a 16x Maxwell DVD-R. The same kind of disc worked fine with the movie when I had a menu.
I'm afraid I don't know what a Patchburn is.

Hi JosefK:
Welcome to discussions.
Did you use a Data DVD by chance?
It needs to be a DVD-R with iMovie 4.
Are you using an external with Patchburn?

ITunes Error: Cannot play bought iTunes movie from one day to the other "The selected movie won't play on your display."

Hi,
just a few weeks ago I watched on my new iMac 5k Retina a long-ago-downloaded movie (iTunes content, HD, Billy Joel. Live at Shea Stadium). I had no issues watching it on the new wonderful display just a few weeks ago!
Today I wanted to resume the video and got the error "The selected movie won’t play on your display. This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).".
Actually the movie plays for a few seconds and then the movie window gets black and the error message appears. Restarting iTunes does not help. Restarting the Mac also not.
How can this be fixed?
Additionally I get since I moved from my old iMac to the new one the iTunes error "Do you want the application “iTunes.app” to accept incoming network connections?" every time I start iTunes.

Selected movie won't play SOLVED

I had this problem trying to play a rented movie. Got the message The selected movie won't play on one of your connected displays. My problem was with a software which is made by INFOCUS for their projector. I removed it and now the movie plays even on the projector and without the software. I have seen that solution in this forum elsewhere.

Hello guys,
Please note that to be able to play your purchased HD movies or videos, let us not forget some minor details. Ensure that your iTunes software is up-to-date. HD videos will only play if you have iTunes 10.6 or later as described in this article:
iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
You might also want to check this one:
iTunes for Windows: Unable to view or play HD video content that requires HDCP
I hope this helps a lot! Good luck!

I fixed it. I just had to unplug my second monitor and re-plug it in. All is better now.

Same issue on a mac mini - are you ******* kidding me?
This is why DRM is HORRIBLE. I can download the same content illegally and it would play fine... Thanks for nothing Apple

My rented movie won't play, even though it shows "rented". What gives?

I have a similar issue. My Dell Latitude is running Windows Pro 8.1 and iTunes 11.1.3.8. It looks like it's playing, but it isn't.
Things seemed to work fine before the 8.1 update. I fear I will have to rollback to 8.0 because the sound no longer works on the computer unless you use the headphone jack.
Podcasts and music behave the same way, they appear to be playing, but the timer is not progressing for them either.
This may be the combination of 8.1 and 11.1.3.8

Should I just restart the computer?

That would be a start!
Post back if it didn't work with further details of what movie this is, and what version of iMovie.

After automatically updated to Firefox 3.6.15 videos won't play properly

Recently when firefox was automatically updated to 3.6.15 suddenly videos won't play properly anymore. Vidxden videos used to play really well but now they don't load properly or not at all. All the other videos take forever to load and don't seem to be compatible anymore. I usually go to the same video sites and those don't work like they used to. I've noticed as well that hotmail is really slow and many pages won't load at all including windows live web site. It doesn't appear that 3.6.15 is very compatible with video play or msn sites.

Since automatic update to 3.6.15, I am unable to play videos on abc.com, and even on my News Feed page in Facebook. The error message says the video is being blocked by an ad blocker in my browser. I have not changed my security settings, nor have I updated any other software recently.
By the way, I did check the same videos (at abc.com and on Facebook) with Internet Explorer (same computer) and they played just fine.

In OSX 10.9, Quicktime movies won't play

Plug-in not "visible" in list even though Quicktime is installed. In this OS, we cannot "reinstall" Quicktime because it's built into the OS. How can I get the QT videos to run inside Firefox?

You said that QuickTime movies won't play "inside Firefox". Do they play inside Safari or when you directly access a QuickTime Movie file that's been saved on your Mac ?
See the Firefox Support article, [[Use the QuickTime plugin to play audio and video]]. It has some test links and explains how to enable the QuickTime plugin in the Add-ons Manager, in case it's been disabled in Firefox.
Like you say, QuickTime is built into the operating system on Mac OS so if you can't enable the browser plugin in Firefox or if it's missing, your best bet would be a Mac forum such as https://discussions.apple.com/

Quicktime movies won't play on Apple Website

I formatted my HD and reinstalled Snow Leopard. Last night and this morning I was watching the videos on http://www.apple.com/business/theater/#activecorners?sr=hotnews.rss, but tnight when I went back there, the movies won't play, nor will any other movies on the entire website. All I get is a Quicktime Icon with a question mark in the middle of it. I have both Quicktime X and Quicktime Pro 7 installed, with Pro in the Utilities folder.

After loading the AppleMPEG2.Component into the Quicktime folder in the Library, everything started working again. I'm not sure if that's what made it start working again though.

ITunes movies won't play after backing up library

I recently ran out of hard drive space on my macbook pro so I decided to move my iTunes library to an external hard drive to make space. Since doing so the movies that I bought on Itunes won't play. Everything else is fine. The music plays but the TV shows and movies won't play. There was an error message the first time that I tried to play it but I have never seen it again and I didn't write it down. Something about a file missing. Has anyone successfully fixed a similar problem?

so I decided to move my iTunes library to an external hard drive to make space
I'm guessing you moved the /iTunes media/ folder to the external yourself?
There was an error message the first time that I tried to play it but I have never seen it again and I didn't write it down. Something about a file missing.
iTunes prefs - Reset warnings.
Double click a movie to play it.
When it comes up and asks if you want to locate it, click Yes, then go to /iTunes/iTunes media/Movies on the external and find the movie.

Movie won't play in or outside of itunes

I recently purchased Marvel's Avengers. The movie won't play in itunes or in any other program. I've tried deleting and re-downloading it. I don't get an error message, I just click play and nothing happens.
Sometimes it will flash the pause button briefly, but then it goes back to the play button, and the movie doesn't start.

Try restarting your iTunes in 32-bit mode, as per the following document:
