Quicktime help, wont work for some things

ok, so I can view videos just fine on quicktime.com and such, however I am a filmmaker and i put my videos on such sites as vMix.com, and Myspace, however all that comes up with my vidoe is the Quicktime Q logo with a ? in the middle of it. All my friends say they can view it fine, but I cant view it at all. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling but that didnt do anything. Help would be greatly appreciated

Not all media formats can be viewed by all players or plug-ins. The vMix pages appear to be using Flash (.swf) formats.
Download and install Flash Player for your PC (free).
It may already be installed, however, and you have set the QT plug-in to try and open this format. Easy fix.
Open the QuickTime Control Panel and look for the tab that allows you to edit the "MIME Settings". Remove the check mark for Flash Media and quit and relaunch your browser for these changes to take effect. Try the page again and the Flash Player plug-in should display the file.

I have a MacBook Air which has a camera installed in it but it doesn't seem to work for some things like iMovie and my security camera for emergencies. It does however seem to work for Photobooth and facetime. Please write back and help my mac's problems.

It'd be nice if you could help me with my mac's problems so I can start using iMovie and my security camera again. Thank you too all that answer.

Shockwave wont work for a thing using Shockwave.

Hi, I recently downloaded shockwave And i play a Habbo retro located at: http://streetrp.info/client I go to it and it says: "This shockwave movie has error's that have caused playback problems. Please contact the author of this content regarding this problem. Shockwave is unable to continue" So i went to go to my add/remove programes to remove it and re-download it and it isnt on my Add/Remove Programmes list!!?!? So im stuck with this forever.
It doesnt just do it with Streetrp.info/client it also does it with http://habbarp.dyndns.org/client and the same with http://deathrp.zapto.org/client
Please help me out here, Ive always playd the link's above and im not having Adobe's Poor Quality programmes effect it!,
I cant go on anything with shockwave now.
ILL NEVER RECOMMEND ADOBE SHOCKWAVE TO A FRIEND, THE QUALITY IS AWFULL,
GUY'S READING THIS.. DONT USE SHOCKWAVE BECAUSE THIS MIGHT HAPPEN TO YOU ;/

Thanks for the advice, Niel. Interestingly enough, the Unit Converter had not created a plist file. I did try you suggestion of dragging all the widget plist files to the desktop, but the Unit Converter still didn't work.
But I have now found the solution. The problem was being caused by a custom number format that I had inherited from the Panther installation. In Tiger it's impossible to set a custom number format - the number format is set automatically for each region and it's impossible to change it. But it was possible to set a custom number format in Panther and it is recognized by Tiger. So I can either keep using my custom number format, in which case Unit Converter won't work, or set one of the standard number formats, in which case Unit Converter works (I see that now it actually launches, it has also created its plist file: eveidently the file didn't exist before because the widget had never got as far as creating it).
I think it's very bad that Apple removed the custom number format feature. And since the old custom number format from Panther was recognized by the new system, it's also bad that this widget doesn't work with it.
But at least I've found the solution to my own problem!

Quicktime working for some but not for others

Hello all,
I'm developing this website and it displays videos in quicktime format, but it's just not working for some people... It just won't play for some reason I just don't know 'cause I couldn't make the error happen to me and got no good help from others...
This is what's happening: @ www.thebrooklynbrothers.com/ clicking on "work, work and more work", then clicking on MEDIA and then FILM, it should display the QT movie and the user could play it, but for some reason it just shows up the QT logo and nothing more, as some people are telling me... could somebody check this out to see if it happens to you as well and tell me what could be the problem or any other details of the error so I can figure out what it is?
if you want to check a sample URL it loads from there, check this one: http://www.thebrooklynbrothers.com/new/portfolio/contentloader.php?file=cnneraq.mov&filetype=2
Thanks you so much for your time! ANY help would be greatly appreciated! I'm desperate right now!

I'm having a similar problem with videos uploaded onto my website. It all plays fine through Firefox and Internet Explorer on my other PC, but on this one (Win XP), I just get a blank page after it's finished loading. No video box or error mesage. Just lots of white space. I've checked all my settings, and have QT as my default player, but still nothing. Have also downloaded the latest QT updates. Is there something I'm missing in Windows or Internet Explorer? I don't have any problems with it on my Mac.
Thanks,
Lucy

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
Happy New Year

Facebook apps wont work for my iphone 4 please help

facebook apps wont work for my iphone 4 please help

Ok, what you have here is a basic 'blown fuse' problem.
With the iPhone 3G and 3GS if you drop them in water and they stop working you can almost always revive the phone simply by oepning them up, finding the corrosion on the motherboard then cleaning it and putting it back together.
With the iPhone 4 (and 4S) it's a different story though in that water damage causes a fuse on the motherboard to blow. Once blown, the phones can no longer receive power from the battery. They can however receive power from a wall charger, which is why your phone runs whilst plugged into a charger but dies as soon as it's disconnected. Trying to run it from a USB port wont work either as the 5V power supply gets interupted whilst the phone is booting, as such it dies part way through booting, and the cycle repeats.
At this stage you have 3 options:
-have the phone replaced by Apple, or
-replace the damaged fuse on the iPhone motherboard yourself, or
-send the phone to a company to have the fuse repaired
There is a company that sells the replacement components, and they have an installation sevice too. I've fixed a couple of iPhones in my day, and unless you are very proficent with a soldering iron I strongly recommend having the repair done for you.
See the link below:
http://fonefixer.webs.com/apps/webstore/products/show/2684671
Sorry it's not good news, but at least you know what's going on with the phone now and can weigh up your options.

Why does Safari go into limbo when I try to search for some things?

     Why does Safari go into limbo when I try to search for some things? I start to enter something in the search window. I get a drop down with suggestion I choose one and it pops up in my search window but just turns a color and does nothing!
    If I quit Safari and bring it back up, then enter the exact same line it's fine. This is just one of the many problems I've been
having with Safari since I installed Yosemite.
     Has anyone got any suggestions or is anyone having the same problem. Is there a way to maybe force my MacBook pro to reinstall Safari or possibly all of Yosemite. I seem to be having a lot of problems and judging by the responses I've received (That would be None) I must be the only one having any problem at all withYosemite. Not sure what to do.
     Any help or suggestions would be great
     Ron

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Outlook autodiscover is not working for some users in coexistence

Hi
We are doing exchnage 2013/2010 coexistence
Most everything is ok BUT outlook autodiscover is not working for some exchange 2010 users now that 2013 is in the front!!!. We end up creating the profiles manually. It has affected some but not all the users.
I followed the instructions here but it didn't help.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/tips_from_the_inside/archive/2012/01/11/autodiscover-fails-for-one-or-more-users.aspx
Using outlook 2010, 2013, patches, .... didn't make a difference
Would you please help?
Thank you

Hi
If it is affecting only few handful of users i could suspect a mailbox corruption and would recommend to move mailbox and see the results.
Also you can try below
You need to set the values MaxFieldLength, MaxRequestBytes & MaxTokenSize to below on Exchange 2010 CAS servers as well as Exchange 2013 CAS servers
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters
Name: MaxFieldLength
Type: DWORD
Value: 65534
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP\Parameters
Name: MaxRequestBytes
Type: DWORD
Value: 16777216
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Kerberos\Parameters
Name: MaxTokenSize
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 48000
Just reboot the servers once its done and you will be good to go.

MAM application is not working for some users

Hi All,
Tha MAM application is not working for some users.Different users have different workcenters other than that I dont see any other change. When I run MAM30_090_GETLIST in the backend I can see the no of customized users.But I cant see same no of users in the MEREP_207 table for the Syncbo MAM30_090 and strcture id TOP in the middleware. There is a data when I checked under worklist monitor for that user. But neither the MAM application nor MAM data is downloading to that device.
If I use different user on the same device I can see the MAM application and MAM data.
What could be the wrong in this case. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Mobile Client:MI 70 SP 15 Patch 0 Build 200802280918
Middleware:SAP NetWeaver 2004s with Patch leve 15
Backend:SAP ECC 6.0
Application:MAM 3.0
Thanks and Regards,
Ameer.

Hi,
from your description the source of your issue is quite obvious: some of the MAM users configured in spro are not configured properly.
For T01 SyncBos the number of TOP records in merep_207 MUST be the same as number of headers returned by an appropriate getList FM in the backend.
You need to solve this before you can go any further.
Reason why a record is not recorded in MEREP_207 - getdetail failed for whatever reason. So execute MAM30_ML_getdetail for each of the users that is not replicated in the middleware and check if there are errors in RETURN table. If there is no error - one of the common reason for replication fail is when there are records in item tables that have duplicate primary keys.
Regards,
Larissa Limarova

Outlook Anywhere not working for some users

Hi All,
I am having a strange issue today with a customer -
Outlook Anywhere has been enabled on their Exchange 2010 environment, but it doesn't work for some users.
Using the ExRCA I have been able to identify the following error on the users who are unable to connect:
"Testing the MAPI Mail Store endpoint on the Exchange server."
"Attempting to log on to the mailbox"
Mailbox logon returned ecLoginPerm 1010. You don't have the correct permissions to log in to the mailbox.
EMSMDB Status: ecLoginPerm 1010
Elapsed Time: 225 ms.
On users that are able to connect it goes through the ExRCA without any issues.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Jack

Printing doesn't work for some docs (CUPS 1.4, Samsung ML-2010, Splix)

I installed my Samsung ML-2010R some days ago. CUPS version is 1.4.2-1. Splix is 2.0.0-1.
After blacklisting lpusb installation worked fine. Also printing a testpage worked. Printing works for some documents, but there are some which won't (all were pdfs, but I mainly tested .pdfs). The document is sent to the printer (or at least it looks so), but nothing happens (sometimes the printer makes a short noise). When I go to http://localhost:631/printers/ it says "Frei - "Processing page 11..."" (while "frei" being German for "free", don't know, perhaps the corresponding status in English is idle). The page number changes depending on the document (but it is always the same page if I try to print the same document more times).
In the log-files I don't find anything useful (at least for me). Here is what I get, if I try to print one of these documents:
In page_log:

In error_log there is nothing.
Perhaps you could help me with further debugging. I'll try the proprietary Samsung driver in the meantime.

EDIT: This didn't actually seem to fix the problem. :'(
Good news! I think the outstanding developers of Debian have a patch for our bug.

This makes new versions of the packages "cups" and "libcups". I installed them and my printer is behaving very well. The Debian/Ubuntu developers work miracles.
If you could try it, to see if it fixes your printer problems too, that would be great.
Here is where I got the patches from. http://patch-tracker.debian.org/package/cups/1.4.2-4 I applied almost all of them. I excluded the "drop unnecessary dependencies" patch because it brought compiler errors with the default Arch CUPS PKGBUILD, and also excluded the "man page" and "manual" patches. I think the only patch you and I actually need is the "usb-backend-both-usblp-and-libusb" patch, but I'm not really in the mood to try applying only that one, since it seems to be working fine now. I decided to ignore applying the Ubuntu CUPS patches, because they mostly seem to be simply patches to the way CUPS is installed. Anyway, I hope these patches are moved upstream soon!
If we have good results from this PKGBUILD, I think I will upload it to AUR. It will be my first AUR package.

Fast Start Quicktime Movies Wont Work

I dont know why Fast Start Quicktime movies wont work in iWeb. This exact same file I used in a site I created using Dreamweaver began the movie as soon as it reached a point where the entire movie could be viewed. Why not in iWeb?

For whatever reason, iWeb publishes the quicktime movies with the autostart attribute at "false". To enable autostart, you will need to edit the html file after publishing and set the autostart attribute to "true". Even though autostart may have been enabled within the movie encoding process ("in the file"), I believe that this property is allowed to be overridden by the html attributes within which the file is published.
There is a table of all the attributes that can be changed floating around here somewhere. Keep in mind that these post-publishing changes that you might make will be overwritten in any subsequent changes that you might make to the page within iWeb.

I cant get a photo project to email the moblile me address to someone else. I know how, but it has stopped working for some reason. Instead of pulling up the web address on the email form, it puts an error message? Any ideas?

Michael,
The link for the word 'HERE' directs to a Evergreen School District page, which outside of Mobile Me and/or Aperture. Your school district network might be intercepting the request from Aperture and displaying the 'network authentication page' that you see, instead of the email. I would get with the IT department to see if they can help you get around this.
Have you also tried using the 'Tell a Friend' feature from another network location, like starbucks or your home?
Cheers,
Owen.

Quicktime help, wont work for some things
