Quicktime hangs when opening a .avi file

Please help. for the past two years ever since i got my powerbook g4 i have no problem opening a .avi file until today all my .avi files cannot be open at all. the quicktime program will hang when i click to open any .avi files. please help if anyone got a solution.

Hi,
He's right!
Install the Perian plugin, and I would advise you to follow their recommendations on removing redundant Quicktime plugins.
I was having the same problems with slow loading .avi movies in Quicktime, and in the Finder preview window, until I installed Perian and got rid of Divx 3ivx and other plugins from my Hard Drive/Library/Quicktime folder
Everything works fine now.
Regards

    What kind of advertisement?  In Adobe Reader?  Can you post a screenshot of that: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
    Regarding the crash, can you try disabling Protected Mode through the registry: download, unzip, then run the registry script https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/49eeb48b-07c5-4502-984c-8a25259914fa

  • Quicktime crashes when opening any video file type.

    Hi, I've been having this problem for quite a long time now. When attempting to open a quicktime file or any other type of video file, the program crashes. It does not report any sort of error message. I've updated both quicktime and windows. I've tried everything that has been suggested in prior posts and have yield no results. This is really irrating me. I don't want to have wasted money on this program and I need this for class. Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

    The files I'm most concerned with playing are my animations exported from Final Cut and from another system's quicktime. These usually are quicktimes or .wma's that are either uncompressed or with a variety of compression, usually DV-NTSC, H.264, HDV 1080 60i, or mpeg4 for the web. But as I've professed before, it seem that the file type isn't necessarily factor. Any video file that should play in Quicktime does not and the program crashes. Upon this I get a very vague error message which reads "Quicktime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." That unfortunately is as much detail as I can give at the moment. I know this is a vague problem and that my information is just as vague, but that is all I have gathered. Anything is appreciated.

  • BUG : JDev 10.1.3 SR2 hangs when opening a java files

    Hi,
    think I've found a bug. I'm using JDev 10.1.3, patched with SR1 & 2, my machine is a Windows XP SP2 box with 1GB mem and Intel Pentium 4 2.60 Ghz with HT.
    When I try to open a file in the Java editor the IDE hangs. Launching jdev.exe I can see that the following output is continuously printed:

    I also disabled ALL extension and removed the jar files in jdev/extension, except the one that was originally included in the 10.1.3 and those that seems related to the service releases.
    The file I'm trying to open is done like this:
    --- start after this line ---

    Note the last empty line before the end-of-file. If I try to past this code into a Java file and open it in JDev, it hangs as described.
    Moreover, if I remove the last empty line, JDev will open the file in the editor but, as soon as I enter it again (placing the cursor at the end of the file a hitting enter) JDev hangs again.
    A final note: I experienced many hangs also in JSP editor, especially selecting a block of text and pasting something in its place, but don't know if the two behaviours are related.

    Ok, maybe I've tracked down at least one factor that makes JDev hang. I changed my font back to the default "DialogInput" instead of "Lucida Console" and now it opens my file.
    This is the settings that works in system/oracle.jdeveloper.10.1.3.36.73/preferences.xml
    <Item>

    <Value class="oracle.ide.ceditor.options.FontSizeOptions">

    With this one it hangs:

  • Quicktime crashes when opening a video file

    After installing Snow Leopard, Quicktime X will not play any of my video files. It crashes after I select a movie file from the menu. These are MP4, MOV and Avi previously created with QT7 and iMovie 09. I installed the QT7 from the Snow Leopard disk with the same results. All movie files play on the remaining Leopard (not upgrade) Mac.
    Any Idea?
    Thanks, Dale

    The files I'm most concerned with playing are my animations exported from Final Cut and from another system's quicktime. These usually are quicktimes or .wma's that are either uncompressed or with a variety of compression, usually DV-NTSC, H.264, HDV 1080 60i, or mpeg4 for the web. But as I've professed before, it seem that the file type isn't necessarily factor. Any video file that should play in Quicktime does not and the program crashes. Upon this I get a very vague error message which reads "Quicktime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." That unfortunately is as much detail as I can give at the moment. I know this is a vague problem and that my information is just as vague, but that is all I have gathered. Anything is appreciated.

    The files I'm most concerned with playing are my animations exported from Final Cut and from another system's quicktime. These usually are quicktimes or .wma's that are either uncompressed or with a variety of compression, usually DV-NTSC, H.264, HDV 1080 60i, or mpeg4 for the web. But as I've professed before, it seem that the file type isn't necessarily factor. Any video file that should play in Quicktime does not and the program crashes. Upon this I get a very vague error message which reads "Quicktime Player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." That unfortunately is as much detail as I can give at the moment. I know this is a vague problem and that my information is just as vague, but that is all I have gathered. Anything is appreciated.

  • Hello! I used QuickTime for watch any videos on OS X Mountain Lion, but now, I'm passed to OS X Mavericks and QuickTime, when I open an .avi file, convert this in a .mov file. I'm sorry for my English, I'm French and I don't know speak English very well,

I'm sorry for my English, I'm French and I don't know speak English very well, but what can I do for QuickTime opens on .avi and doesn't convert to .mov?

    HI GalaxieMusique,
    I'm french too, but I'm going to write this post in english so that everyone may understand it
    I have the same problem in Mavericks, but I'd say, more important, with QuickLook.
    Indeed Quicklook can't read avi movies anymore. Actually it always been the case, but with Perian we were able to fix it. The problem is that Perian is no longer available for Mac OS 10.9....
    I'd assume that our only hope is Apple themselves... It would be nice from Apple to creat an add-on for quicklook to be able to preview the avi movies.
    In regards with quicktime, you can download QuickTime 7 here:
    http://www.01net.com/telecharger/windows/Multimedia/lecteurs_video_dvd/fiches/10 0.html
    and ask all the .avi movies to be played by QuickTime 7 and not QuickTime X (included into Mac OS).
    Sorry for the english, we french people can make mistakes sometimes
    If anyone has a solution for QuickLook, please do not hesitate. This topic is becoming a real mess....

  • I have Aperture3 and iPhoto.  When I try send video clips as attachments, I get a message saying Quicktime can't open the .avi - why?

    I have Aperture3 and iPhoto.  When I try send video clips as attachments, I get a message saying Quicktime can't open the .avi - why?  Others couldn't open them so I sent them to myself and get the same message.  Doesn't seem to be a size issue as I've tried with really short clips (4 seconds).  As I recall, I didn't have this problem before buying Aperture last fall, when I only had iPhoto.  It appears that by default, an attachment to an email automatically comes from my iPhoto files and not Aperture - assume that is supposed to happen but not sure.  Thanks for any and all help!

    How are you tryin to send the .AVI file? Are you sending the attachment directly from Mail or from Aperture or iPhoto?

  • HT3775 I recently upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and cannot open up .avi files now in Quicktime. I get this error message: The document "ANDREW_McD_MEDIA_VERSION.avi" could not be opened. A required codec isn't available.

    I recently upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and cannot open up .avi files now in Quicktime. These same files opened up with no problem prior to my upgrade.  Additionally, I had upgraded to the Pro version of Quicktime recently, but it appears I've retrograded back to the basic version, unexplainably.
    I get this error message: The document “ANDREW_McD_MEDIA_VERSION.avi” could not be opened. A required codec isn't available.

    Hi,
    I had exactly the same problem & found the answer here  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3219982?start=0&tstart=0 . Download a program called Perian, very easy to download worked a treat. I wish all fixes were this easy - Debbie

  • Dreamweaver CS6 hangs when opening file

    Starting recently Dreamweaver CS6 hangs for 30 seconds or more, sometimes saying not responding, when I open an HTML file. It appears to do this when the file contains links to external places. To test I created a file that contained nothing except the "new HTML file" basic headers, saved the file, then opened. This test file did not hang.
    I have tried the registry fix "ResolveRemoteURLToIPAddress FALSE" and deleting the personal configuration directory (with Dreamweaver closed). Neither of these solved the problem. Dreamweaver still hangs when opening a file.
    Any other ideas?
    Barry.

    Once the document opens, check the code for any protocol relative links (links that start with // rather than http://) and change them to http:// links, at least during development. It is a know issue to Adobe and will cause what you describe.
    If you don't have any protocol relative links, links to third party sites can cause issues from time to time if their servers are slow or have any kind of conflict with your network. Unless you absolutely can't, you may want to copy those external scripts to your local site and link to the local versions instead, again, during development.

  • I am trying to open some *.avi files in quicktime, they are from my security camera at home.  It will not open them, would anyone be able to help me?  It says I need a plugin but it does not tell me which one.

    Basically your player is telling you that you need to install the codecs that will play the compressed data within the AVI file.
    AVI is a legacy file container in which the tracks of data are interleaved to maintain synchronization. This data can be encoded using many different audio and video codecs. Your problem is to determine which codecs you need for the player you are trying to use and install them if they are available. Failing that, your will either have to play the files in a different player which has the codec support your require built into the app or convert the content to a compression format that is natively compatible with the player you wish to use.
    Since you have not stated what platform, operating system, and particular player you are targeting for playback, it is difficult to provide precise instructions for fixing your specific problem at this point. Suggest you try alternative players compatible with your system and platform to see if they will play the files, use a dedicated media information utility to determine the codecs needed for playback, or post a sample file for analysis.

  • Photoshop CS3 Hangs when opening files

    PS hangs when opening, duplicating images. The longer it's on the longer the wait. I'm talkin' 15 - 20 seconds. Deleted the prefs multiple times.
    Anybody else having this problem?

    Set your default printer to something local, that is actually hooked up.
    When Photoshop creates the document, it asks for the default printer information - and your printer driver is taking a nap while trying to connect to the printer.

  • When I import .avi files I only get audio, no video!

    When I add .avi files recorded with my Flip Video camera to the clip gallery and view, I only get audio, no video. The same happens when I try to play the clip with Quicktime. Help!

    Update to first post.
    The Flip Video camcorder records or "captures" video in MPEG-4 advanced simple profile format, saved as an AVI file.
    MPEG-4 advanced simple profile format = usually DivX
    1.) With Mpeg streamclip you should be able to convert your AVI(Divx) files to a DV format for iMovie. To open DivX files, you have to install one of the free Divx Pro codecs on your system.
    MPEG Streamclip 1.8
    http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
    DivX Pro Codec 6.6 (6-month trial)
    http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    2.) Visual Hub $24 should be able to convert WMV and AVI (compressed with the DivX Codec)to a DV format for iMovie.
    http://www.techspansion.com/visualhub/
    3.) With Flip4Mac WMV Player Pro $29 you can convert your WMV files for iMovie.
    http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv.htm
    4.) With Perian 0.5 and Quicktime Pro $30 you should be able to convert your AVI/DivX files to a DV format for iMovie.

    I hope one of these solutions work for you.

  • JDeveloper 11.1.2.3 hangs when opening project from JDeveloper 11.1.1.6

    Hello! I have a problem here which I can't solve. I also asked this question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14365031/jdeveloper-11-1-2-3-hangs-when-opening-project-from-jdeveloper-11-1-1-6/14369211#14369211 . The whole story in short. I have a JavaEE client-server project in JDeveloper 11.1.1.6, where it works like a charm. Recently I had to upgrade JDeveloper version to the latest 11.1.2.3. The first problem was that the standard procedure of migrating project from the older version of JDeveloper to the newer one did not help: IDE was hanging forever all the time with no apparent (for me) reason, log file was silent about that. Then I tried another way: I just created the same project from the beginning and put there all necessary source files, libraries, set project properties etc. Still nothing, but now found the way to obtain a kind of error at least. I ran C:\Oracle\Middleware\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdev.exe from the command line and got the following (e.g. when I started running debug):
    Jan 16, 2013 8:52:09 PM oracle.ideimpl.runner.StarterFactoryDescriptionImpl logError
    SEVERE: Incorrect hash-structure value in starter-factory definition
    Jan 16, 2013 8:52:10 PM oracle.ideimpl.runner.StarterFactoryDescriptionImpl logError
    SEVERE: Incorrect hash-structure value in starter-factory definition
    But I don't know what could be the next step... Could anyone help me? Thanks in advance for your attention!

    Hi,
    not sure if you have a support contract or work for Oracle. In both cases the best option is to file a bug (service request)
