Quicktime 7 not playing in Safari/killed Flash 8!

I had a problem earlier regarding QT having major issues with playback...Well I deleted everything in the Quicktime folders and reinstalled Quicktime, and its seems to have done the trick..
...Untill I was on myspace and realised that NONE of the music (that uses Flash 8) plays! How does removing all the 3rd party stuff and reinstalling QT result in Safari being unable to play Flash 8 stuff? (correction: it plays but theres no sound!)
Thanks
Ben

It does play on OS X SL and Safari.

Videos (of any kind) will not play in Safari

Okay, this has been bugging me for about two months now! Videos of any format will not play in Safari. Anything flash (Youtube for example) OR anything Quicktime (mpg, avi, mov, mp4) refuses to even show up when I try to view them. I go to a Youtube page and the whole page loads except for where the video should be...it's just not there at all. Same with Quicktime. If I go to say the HD Trailer for a movie, the three different sizes (480 720 1080) buttons do not even show up (because they are mini Quicktime things)!!
What I have tried to solve this with: I have updated Flash, uninstalled/reinstalled Flash, updated Quicktime, have Mac OS X up to date...but nothing works. These files play fine on just plain Quicktime player (ie I downloaded them) or in FIREFOX, but not in Safari.
BTW: I am using Safari 2, not 3. Also, WMVs actually will play sometimes, but not imbedded, only if you click like www.example.com/movie.wmv
Any help? I'm running an Intel Macbook Pro

Hello Shad:
Have you downloaded and installed Flip4Mac?

I've also tried m4v and avi files. Is there another file format that will work?

I am using OS 10.7 Lion. Quicktime will not play avi files. One support forum gave 2 links to get them but I got a 404 error. Can anyone help?

You can also use VLC

It woks very well, can read almost anything, and also lets you do conversions to other formats.

Sorry for this question. Can you use this device with Vlc or QuickTime? Does skype support it? Is this device supported only by its own software?
I need a device that can work with my own software. My software can work only with a QuickTime supported device.
Thanks if you will reply to me.

Depends of the specific kind of file you are trying to play. MOV refers to the file container. Any data compatible with the system used to create the file can be placed in an MOV file. If you don't have the same codecs available on your computer to play back the file or if your version of the QT player does not expect expect the encoded data to be in an MOV file container, then it cannot/will not play the file. Use the Finder Info window, media player Inspector/Information window, or a dedicated utility to determine what compression formats were used to create the MOV file and then install the required codec(s) if available.

Help major issue, quicktime will not play my HDV movie?

I have a major problem here.
I have a movie i shot and edited when I was at university using Final cut pro and HDV cams.
I need to show this movie on my macbook pro, but I purchased final cut express, and have just found out my Quicktime does not play this file.. the screen is just black?
I assume I need a HDV 1080i50 codec for quicktime??? is this correct?
Where can I get it?
I intend to give a presentation was going to use OpenOffice or use my Quicktime just for moving image
Any suggestions?
Regards

You were given a video that can only play in Final Cut Pro. Final Cut Express doesn't have that codec.
You going to have to go back to whom ever gave you that video and have them export the video to a codec that either Final Cut Express can play or a codec that Quicktime can play.The later would be better because, if a video can play in Quicktime it can play in Final Cut Express.

I have a MAC running Maverick. MP3 sounds will not play in Safari or FireFox, but will play if you download the file locally to the Desktop. How to resolve this?

I have a MAC running Maverick. MP3 sounds will not play in Safari or FireFox, but will play if you download the file locally to the Desktop. How to resolve this?

You probably have an internet plugin installed that is preventing the MP3s from playing. I just checked a site with an MP3, and it played, rather than downloaded.
The internet plugin folders are at:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins and
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
(~/Library is hidden by default. Let me know if you don't know how to access it.)
My internet plugins were all in /Library; there were none in ~/Library.
Try moving these folders to the desktop (don't delete them), restarting, and then seeing if the MP3s play.
They it will be trial and error to see which plugin is responsible.

Videos will not play in safari either quicktime question mark of nothing

Hi everyone,
Initially I had an issue with Quicktime videos in Safari. - They would not play, all I got was a question mark infront of the video. Looking on these forums, appartently unchecking the misc. settings in MIME in QT preferences helps. Anoyingly I cannot actually uncheck those preferences, the mac won't let me. also, after reinstalling the flash update, and restarting etc, now all I get when I go to apple.com/trailers and try to play a video is the QT playback bar, but nothing else. It just stays there and does nothing. I am on broadband so speed is not an issue. how can I fix my issue? Thanks, Adam.

Hello to everyone! Sorry if I seem to be straying off topic. There are several related threads in this forum, the Safari 3 beta forum and also the Quicktime forum.
I have this problem as well - on my PowerBook G4, but not on my PowerMac G5... Specifically, in Safari on the Apple Special Event August 2007 page where we look for Steve to intro the new iMac, I see no button to push to display the stream. Just after the last word in the paragraph that the Play button should be under, there is a small active area that will bring up the stream on its web page (an invisible button), but when that happens, there is only the audio content. I have not tried the movie trailers, but these problems sound identical. So, this looks like several related symptoms - may be several problems or only one.
Everything works normally in FireFox.
Moving the HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins/QuickTime Plugin.webplugin file to the desktop fixes this problem in Safari, but induces several other problems.
I have MacOSX 10.4.10 up to date, Quicktime 7.2.0, Safari 2.0.4 (419.3). DIVX web player 1.3.1 (p/o 6.6 package), Flash 9.0.47, etc... I have upgraded from many, many versions of Mac-OSX to the present.
I recently installed i-Life '08 on both computers.
I repaired permissions and sucecssfully verified my disk - no impact regarding this problem.
I reinstalled Quicktime - no resolution.
I am a knowledgable user - not expert, but quite knowledgable - I suspect that there is an internet plug-in conflict. Someone elsewhere in the discussion forum (Quicktime area, I think) also ventured that guess.
Here are my internet plug-ins for the problem PowerBook G4:
QuickTime Plugin.webplugin
Quartz Composer.webplugin
JavaPluginCocoa.bundle
Java Applet.plugin
RealPlayer Plugin.plugin
npUpload.xpt
iPhotoPhotocast.plugin
VerifiedDownloadPlugin.plugin
npdivx.xpt
Windows Media Plugin
Disabled Plug-Ins
AdobePDFViewer.plugin
flashplayer.xpt
Flash Player.plugin
QuickTime Plugin.plugin
Java Applet Plugin Enabler
ContentUploaderPlugin.plugin
nsIQTScriptablePlugin.xpt
DivXBrowserPlugin.plugin
NP-PPC-Dir-Shockwave
DRM Plugin.bundle
Don't know why the order is like it is - I displayed my directory, selected all and copied and pasted to get this list - sorting by date or name didn't alter the order of this list (hmmm - something to ponder on a dull day!).
I will post the plug-in list for my desktop that works correctly on Tuesday when I am back at the office.
That is all I know on this issue. Hope someone sees something useful here to help get to the bottom of this.

Flash audio player not playing in safari (it shows but does not play).

Basically i own an internet radio station and for some reason the web player (flash player) no longer plays in Safari since i upgraded to OS X Lion, was working before but not now, it does show the player it just does not play any audio, however it does work in Google Chrome.. any ideas why its no longer working since installing Lion??

The error is "Internet Explorer has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then when I click on the Windows solutions icon, it says:
Adobe Flash Player has stopped working properly.
To troubleshoot this problem, follow these steps:
Click to go online and run the Flash Player uninstaller
In the File Download dialog box, click Run, and then follow the instructions to uninstall flash player. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Click to go online and install the Flash Player update
I've done both these things for 2-3 days now. Nothing works.

Quicktime still not playing videos

After installing the Quicktime security update on 7/16/07 Quicktime played only audio , not video in Safari, and Q? with Foxfire (apple.com/trailers). I tried the suggestions on this forum for reinstalling Flash 9, and Qt7.2, and changing the settings in system preferences. Today tried the Perian install. Nothing has worked/changed. Will Apple be sending a fix of rthe security update?

I have a similar and possibly related problem - since installing the QT sec update, I can no longer get the QT player to play back avi files (running 10.4.10).
QT Player just hangs before the window appears ("not responding") and has to be killed using Force Quit (or Actvity Monitor).
I'm not sure if it's QT/QTP, or Flip4Mac's WMV, but I haven't seen any recent updates from F4M (for WMV, that is). But I don't think this is a Flash related stuff-up.
Additional info: the same avis won't open using MPEG Streamclip 1.8, but will run using VLC 8.8.6-bugfix.
Still, jolly annoying, at any bit-rate.

Videos will not play in Safari

I have an iPhone 3GS on the 3.1.2 OS, and cannot get videos to play in Safari. I've tried watching videos on ESPN's mobile site, as well as the TV Ads for the iPhone on Apple's website, and all that shows up is a screen full of code. Any assistance is much appreciated.

The iPhone will only play H264/Quicktime video and you're trying to watch Flash based video which is not supported. But just check the javascript option is ticked in the safari options.
There is no workaround.
If you search the forum for 'flash' you will see plenty of threads on the subject. Flash will probably never be supported for the reasons therein - plenty to read up.

Video does not play in safari with QT7.3 update

just as last time quicktime was updated, this version does the same thing. after updating to QT7.3 videos no longer play in safari. i went to the apple trailers site, i get the sound but no video. last time the solution i found was to remove the quicktime plugin from the plugin folder in the library folder. i did that same thing this time, and it still does not work.
any help on this one? using a powerbook g-3 pismo, with os 10.4
thanks

Hi tfu47 and welcome to the forums!
No such problems here - which I know doesn't help you!
Did you close all applications before installing the update? Did you restart as instructed? Did you repair permissions?
These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
The world should now be your oyster!
You should also have the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
