QuickTime does not work

I have QuickTime 7.4.1 running on my G3 OS Panther and on my iMac OS Tiger.
Whenever it plays a movie on the Ge all I get is the sound and no picture.
On my iMac OS Tiger it runs ok.
I once installed Flip for Mac but deleted it. I searched for Flip for mac on my G3 and could not find any references to it except for some:
flip.jpg, flipbtn.gif, Flippers.tif.
Thanks for any advice.

Hi Frank,
Try going to your HD/Library Folder/Internet Plugins and see if you have a QuickTime Plugin.webplugin folder there. If so, move this folder to the desktop. Try playing a QuickTime movie again and see if the video plays now. If not you can move this folder back to the Internet Plugins folder.
For future reference, questions concerning QuickTime can be placed in the QuickTime for Mac OS where there are many knowledgable users of the application there.
post back with any results,

  • Why does quicktime does not work on os lio

    why quicktime x does not work on OS Lion

    QuickTime does work under 10.7, however you may want to check that you're opening the newest copy of it by going to your Applications folder and opening it from there.
    If you keep having trouble with opening it, please let us know what error you might be getting. QuickTime X will open with just a menu bar, then you can go to the file menu and choose to open any file you wanted to open, or choose one of the screen or audio recording options.

  • How do I get a virtual lab to play,quicktime does not work with this CD,I have quicktime on other computers works fine with this CD. Technician said Cd could

    How  do  I  get  a  virtual lab to  work  on  this  computer.  The  technician  said  the  CD  is  not  compatible. Maybe  corrupt. He  seemed  he  did  not  know
    what  he  was  talking  about. I  asked  him  was  it  any  software  I  could  download  he  said  no.  This  CD  works  fine  on  my  other  computer, no  it  is  not  an  apple  computer. And  I  use  quicktime  on  both  computers. But  on  this  apple  computer  quicktime  does  not  play  this  CD, which  this  type
    of  CD  works  better  with  quicktime. Any  suggestions  on  how  to  solve  this  problem.  This  is  a   new  computer,  I  would  hate  to  think  their  is  nothing  that  can  be  done.

    I  need  step  by step  instructions  on  how  to  get  my  virtual  lab  cd  to  work. The  technician  said  cd  not  compatible  or  is  corrupt.  I  do  not  believe  their  is  nothing  that  can  be  done.  When  I  put  the  cd  in  the  side  slot  nothing  comes  up  on  the  screen.  I  have  tried  several   ways, the  technician  did  not  seem  very  knowledgeable  on  what  to  do. Also  this  cd  plays  fine  on  my  other  computer  which  is  not  an  apple  computer. Is  there  anything  I  can  do  to  correct  this?

  • My quicktime does not work at all on my iMac with Lion

    When I click the quicktime icon it does not open up at all. Quicktime has never worked since the day I bought the computer which was a few weeks ago. Is there a fix to this problem?

  • Quicktime Does Not Work...Striped yellow/black bar or Q with ?

    Hi, I have read the previous posts about similar problems with quicktime but the posted fixes have not resolved my issue. I have three computers. Quicktime quit working on two of them. Before upgrading to the latest version, I got the yellow/black striped bar when quicktime tried to open. Now I get the Q with the ?. I've checked my settings and even reselected the "default" settings several times but to no avail. As to the "system preferences and deselecting quicktime with flash" input, I have been unable to locate this setting (at least as described). I have upgraded my flash as well. All three computers supposedly have the same settings.
    Sometimes I receive a popup indicating additional quicktime software/plugins are required to run the media and asking if I want to get the necessary files. When I click, "yes," it takes me to the quicktime plugin page, but does not tell me what is needed.
    How do I fix this problem? Here is the link to the site in question today: http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/index/1,21581,5015022,00.html

    The site posted is using Adobe Flash Player 9. The QT version on the computer only supports version's of Macromedia Flash Player 5. Open the QT control panel, go to Browser tab, Mime Settings, and uncheck Flash media, listed under Misc.Misc. file formats. Or refer too:http://kb.mozillazine.org/Quicktime
    Or update QT to 7.3.1.70

  • Quicktime does not work in firefox 24 in windows 8 desktop mode

    I am running Firefox 24 on Windows 8 Pro 64-bit in desktop mode. I have QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.4 installed. But when I try to go http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/ and play trailers all I get is black box and nothing is playing. No prompting to authorize a plugin, no error message, nothing. I tried to see if it will work with other browsers, so I tried Google Chrome. I went to the website, got prompted to authorize the plugin and then was able to play trailers without any problems. The page won't even render correctly under IE. So, it makes me conclude that it is a browser problem. Can you help me please? Thanks.

    Is his in a normal tab or in a private tab?
    Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

  • Quicktime Does Not Work On Second Life

    Hi There,
    I am a Second life user. I love playing Second Life but there is one drawback. I can't watch Second Life TV.( You can watch Second Life TV at Rarity Design or RaMiRo Design if you play Second Life. Just use the search!) I am usually at Rarity Design but whenever I turn the TV on, I get a Quicktime 7 loading screen. I use Snow Leopard. I installed Quicktime 7, and I searched for updates, but no resolution. When I go to RaMiRo Design and try to watch TV, I get a plain blue screen. If anyone can help please let me know.
    Thanks

  • Quicktime does not work with iphoto

    Quicktime no longer opens when I click on a movie in iPhoto...  Anyone know why?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    I can mount it as another drive and export it or use a flash card reader
    IMO that's a preferable method of getting photos off your camera and into iPhoto. It prevents the possibility of an interrupted import from the camera to iPhoto due to low battery, loose cable, etc. which can and usually will damage the library. I prefer a card reader so that I can rename the photos on the desktop before importing into iPhoto. The camera's naming scheme, IMG_XXX.JPG just doesn't give much info about the content. I add the date (in the international date format) with a brief description: 2010-03-12-Grandparents Day-001.JPG, -002.JPG, etc. I use R-Name to sequentially batch rename the files.
    Other workflow possibilities are discussed in The DAM Forum, digital asset management.
    Just some food for thought.

  • I have iMovie '11, and I am unable to access mpeg HD video files that I want to edit.  The files are fine (I can open and watch them using VLC), but I cannot seem to import the files into iMovie. File Import does not work.  Any suggestions??

    More detail: I have a bunch of mpeg HD video files that were shot on a SONY HDR-HC3 Handycam camcorder.  I would like to edit these into a single video production.  I can access and view the mpeg files using VLC (Quicktime does not work with them).  However, I seem to be unable to get the mpeg files to interface with iMovie '11 -- I cannot use the File --> Import command, nor can I drag-and-drop them into iMovie.
    Is there something anyone might suggest to get this to work?  Or are these files incompatible with iMovie?  If so, I assume I must purchase a different video editing software program (e.g. Adobe Premeir Pro).  Suggestions???
    Many thanks in advance for your time and consideration

      Yes, I tried that.   The files were ordered by their original numbers as imported from the camera, but I batched them through Phocoshop to downsize all of them into a more manageable file size.   I opened that destination folder from quick time  from where it said select image sequence.   I clicked on the first one and opened it.   The result was a large image with an arrow indicating a movie was ready to go.   When I pressed the arrow, though, I realized it had only imported that one frame so there was no movie.   The files are Jpgs and are about 450 KB each. 
        To your knowledge are there any links to iMovie tutorials or quick time tutorials that may address this situation?  Maybe there will be one I haven't looked at yet. 
        Thanks

  • Quicktime plugin for screen capture does not work in flash player 11.2

    Hello,
                   I have created a quicktime plugin (it is .component file) for screen sharing purpose.
    I have used quicktime framework for that. plugin is detected in flash player.
    This plugin is working perfectly for flash player 11 and below.But,
    It does not working in latest flash player 11.2.
    I have seen following error on console -
    Google Chrome Helper EH[240:e92b] *** QTCaptureSession warning:
    Session received the following error while decompressing video:
    Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-8974
    "The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -8974.)".
    Make sure that the formats of all video outputs are properly configured
    Note - Compression format used in plugin is kBMPCodecType.
    Please, help me.

    The issue ended up being the change in resolution to my external monitor. Flash was unable to detect the proper coordinates of the color I was trying to select because I was running my monitor in HD mode rather than selecting an actual resolution from my monitor preferences. Changing the settings to an acutal resolution, instead of generic "HD mode" fixed the issue.

  • QuickTime 7 Pro Key Does Not Work

    Apple Store sent me a QT Pro "key" and link to on-line instructions. Nothing works. My System Preferences QuickTime dialog/panel does not have an OK button (or a Register button). It's a dead-end dialog. Email reply to my plea for help from Apple Support said I cannot use the QT 7 Pro key on a Mac with OS X 10.3.9 and QuickTime 7.0.3. Said to reinstall 7.0.1 (downgrading from 7.0.3), which I have done, to no avail. Next, I'm supposed to reinstall QuickTime 6.... MEANWHILE, on an Apple QuickTime Web page, it says that QuickTime 7 Pro REQUIRES QuickTime 7. The Apple Support email also suggested that I cannot use QT 7 Pro unless I have OS X Tiger. The email seems fat fetched, but the on-line info doesn't help either. What do I have to do to get QuickTime 7 Pro running? I've paid in full for the privilege. Thanks.

    I appreciate your taking time to reply. Unfortunately, the circumstance you describe does not work on my system, and no one can tell me why or what to do to fix it. Before I went to the Apple online store to buy QuickTime Pro, I already had QT 7.0.3 on my Mac OS X, 10.3.9, system. I paid for QT 7 Pro and got the "key"/registration email from Apple. The email included a link to online installation instructions which do, in fact, tell me to click OK in the System Preferences QuickTime panel (though there is no OK button). I tried again, using your advice, and simply quit System Preferences. Still no QT Pro. When I do a find, Sherlock returns 71 items whose names contain "quicktime." Only one is an application, QuickTime Player v. 7.0.1, No QuickTime Pro. [FYI, though I had QT 7.0.3 on my Mac, the Apple support email told me to "reinstall" 7.0.1, which I did. They actually wanted me to reinstall/downgrade to QuickTime version 6, but I have not done that.] My reason for wanting QuickTime Pro to work is so I can convert AIFF audio files to MP3 audio files. QuickTime Player won't do it for me and told me to get Pro. Thanks, --CSZ

  • Recording desktop in Quicktime 10 does not work in SL

    OS 10.6.8 and QT 10.0 (131)
    I want to record one of my desktop processes with QuickTime (v10.0).  However it does not work, I get the following message:
    The operation couldn't be completed. (OS Status error -108.)
    I do get a file that appears to be the recording but it does not want to open. And I do need to force quit QuickTime almost every time the error appears.
    On my other Mac, also with 10.6.8, it works fine.  So I am puzzled. 
    Anybody know what this could be? How to fix? Open to suggestions.
    I was also looking for a version of QT10 to reinstall it but can not find one. ( I was hoping this might fix it).

    Why not use QuickTime 7.6.6 which is located inside your utility folder?
    I was also looking for a version of QT10 to reinstall it but can not find one.
    You can custom install directly from your system disc that came with your computer.  Follow the onscreen custom install instructions.
