Quicktime missing software?

ok.......when trying to watch movies / video clips in quicktime i get this error coming up: "Some necessary QuickTime software is missing. It May be available on the Quicktime Website". So i went to the quicktime website

i have a g5 with the intel processor and im using the Quicktime that came with OSX 10.4 ..........i believe its version 7.0.3 or sumthing like that.......can someone PLEASE help me with this?

How to Identify the file*, video and audio** format of a movie or sound file
In QuickTime Player
Open the file
Window menu > Show movie info
Look in the Format: field
Note that QuickTime Player may fail to display any audio information for some files.
In MPlayer OSX:
Show the playlist window if it isn't already visible.
Drag the movie file into the playlist window.
Select the movie in the list
Click the "i" button for info
In VLC
Open the movie in VLC
Window menu > Info
Click the black triangles so that they point down
Note that VLC does not display the file format, only the format of the content (audio and video) within the file. A file ending in .divx for instance, is probably in actuality an avi file but VLC doesn't show that information - MPlayer will and QuickTime Player will - if - QuickTime Player will open the file to begin with.
Post in this thread which file, video and audio format your movie(s) are and we'll help you look for a compatible component.

  • GarageBand: missing software instruments & loops won't download

    Hi,
    Recently I've bought a 15' MacBook Pro with OS X version 10.8.3 installed on it(and I've updated it to version 10.8.4) and tried to download [missing software
    instruments and loops] for GarageBand, but that update for the additional GarageBand contents couldn't be found on App Store's update page even after trying
    several times. Does anybody have a solution or similar experience? Answers would be greatly appreciated!

    I recently had the same problem when I upgraded to Garageband '11.  There are many posts and answers about this issue on the forum, but the one that worked for me was also the simplest solution.  When you get to the Updates window on the App Store and it says it doesn't find any updates, hit ⌘-R to reload.  When I did that, the additional instruments and loops download appeared in the Updates window and I was able to download them.
    If that doesn't work for you, search this forum.  There are many more possible solutions.  Good luck!

  • Streaming and Delivery using Quicktime Pro software.

    I was reading the tutorial about Streaming and Delivery with the Quicktime Pro software. I have questions around the steps that are listed to be taken in order to create a streaming video. Here are a list of the steps and the link to this website page.
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/
    Streaming & Delivery
    Interested in streaming content from your site? Learn how to do everything from preparing your media for streaming to setting up a live broadcast and even displaying your media right inside the web browser.
    1. Preparing to Deliver Streaming Media
    2. Hint Tracks
    3. Delivering Live Streaming Media
    4. Reference Movies
    5. Embedding QuickTime
    The question I have is about step 2 Hint Tracks and what the tutorial says:
    Movies that are intended for streaming via QuickTime Streaming Server must be hinted—that is, they need a hint track for every streamable media track. The hint tracks tell the server exactly how to package the media data for the network.
    So these movies are not intended for streaming via Quicktime streaming server.. not even sure what this means but our server I believe is Windows 2000. So can I skip this part of setting up the video for streaming and just follow steps 1,3,4 and 5 or do I need to find someother way to do this?

    QuickTime Pro only helps make .mov and .mp4 files ready for streaming. The files it creates must be served using special software.

  • Quicktime missing

    After Getting a new pc with windows 7 it will not allow iTunes to start.  Something about Quicktime missing yada yada yada.  I treid a couple of the suggested "tricks" and file naming whatnots but to no avail.  I even made sure that the compatability was "off" and then again to select Windows Vista Service Pack 2 as another thread suggested.  I eve tried to load iTunes 6 from a website but even THAT failed to load. HELP! My music is monopolized by Apple. -Mark

    The most likley thing is a problem with the %Path% enviroment variable.
    The location of Quicktime is normally the last item in the list.
    Work computers often have a network path in the path variable and if that location is not available and it occurs before the loaction of Quicktime, iTune gives up looking for Quicktime.
    The solution is to move the network location to after Qucktiem in the %Path% variable.
    In order to check this, type
    cmd
    into your search box and click cmd under Programs.
    The black cmd window will open.
    Next copy&paste the following into the cmd window and press return:
    echo %path% >documents\path.txt
    This should create a file- path.txt - in your documents folder which you can look at in notepad. If you paste the result into your next post, I can take a look and see if there is an obvious problem.
    Fixing the issue involves editing the path variable, but we will get to that if my supposition is correct.

  • Missing Software and version #

    Okay, how would you all handle this:
    In ZEN 7, we had JUST MSI And add/remove programs setup for software inventory. It actually did pretty good (example, it found a bunch of ESRI ArcGIS stuff).
    It would show ALL the SDK (ie, there's an SDK for C++, one for VB, etc.)
    It would also show the complete version and build number (ie: 9.2.134.21)
    Now we are using ZAM 7.5 (in addition to ZEN, but eventually will cutover to ZCM)
    Anyway, ZAM 7.5 seems even more limited in its software inventory.
    It doesn't find any of the SDK's (I've had to submit multiple fingerprint wizards in the past for missing software).
    It also doesn't report build numbers, just versions like 9.2
    Sooo, what's the best way to handle this?
    The missing stuff I'm either going to have to add more fingerprints (very time consuming as I have to go visit the PC's with the software to run the utility) or add local product (in which case I've gotta get the people to send me the .exe and whatnot). Either way, stinks, IMO.
    And how should I handle the missing version information? It's in the windows registry at the least, but I'm not sure about the actual VBR info in the file. Do I submit an SR, enhancement request, run the wizard?
    Version info is very important for us because it signifies the product patch levels (ie, it doesn't say like: Hi I'm ArcView 9.2 SP3, but rather, I'm 9.2.somethingsomethingsomethng)

    Recognition in ZAM - and ZCM - has been, over time, focused more towards business applications than development applications. In that environment, recognition out to the build number is viewed as less relevant; accordingly, most fingerprints tend to report at the "N.N" or "N.N.N" level. The recognition technology is quite capable of reporting out to "N.N.N.N" and indeed that level of granularity is utilized when requested and appropriate. (We pickup the build from the VRB.) Further, when specified, "promotion" fingerprints will automatically discover versions with new build numbers in them and create new products on-the-fly. This type of fingerprint must, however, be engineered by Novell.
    Generally, the recognition team has placed less emphasis on SDKs. We tend to make decisions towards products that will have impact on the majority of customers. But, as you've mentioned, we respond to requests for signatures.
    From the software local products perspective, if you are gathering "software file" (the ZAM name) or "file scan" (ZCM) data, you shouldn't need to have files sent to you to create a local product. In ZAM 7.5 you can create a local product from the Software Files report in the web console fairly efficiently. It works even better in the ZENworks Control Center of ZCM 10. On a project earlier this year, at a customer site where there is a lot of internal application development and a strong commitment to populating the VRB on every update, we created over 150 local products - with different product names and versions - in about a minute.

  • NSU v1.4.14en- missing software???

    Fed up by nokia tech support who don`t get back to me after 12 (!) emails and phonecalls!
    Is there a way to get a complete list over files in NSU? And can anyone e-mail me a list of THEIR (working!) NSU so I can compare???
    Upon startup of NSU all I get is: "MISSING SOFTWARE, critical software components are missing. please reinstall"
    (apparently a "common" problem with Vista home premium"
    And I've tried uninstalling EVERYTHING from nokia, re-installing with firewall off, re-installing NSU with wire-less router off(and hence ALL local and external networks off), putting those annoying little files from "Nokia Software Update FAQ >>" into the approved program list for my firewall, making sure I don't have two NSU's running,running it in XP compatible mode, running the .exe files in XP compatible mode and in administrator modus, hitting my computer, sacrificing a goat to the PC-gods etc! What am I missing???
    What software am I missing???
    Maybe it will run if I install it in another language???
    I'll try Norwegian but PLEASE!!! help me out!!!
    I want FW v20 SOOOOO badly!
    Help (that actually works) will be rewarded with eternal gratitude and praise!!!

    OK here's the guide NOKIA gave me. I had already tried it 646 times, BUT now it's a new version of PC suite in the link below! Maybe that would solve the problem????
    sadly no....
    Maybe it helps others though...
    "Thank you for emailing Nokia Care.
    With regard to your email, I suggest that you install Nokia PC Suite prior to using Nokia Software Updater as this would ensure all necessary driver are correctly installed.
    Please ensure that you have administrator access to your computer, and you should not be on a secured server e.g. office server.
    Kindly refer to the following steps:
    1. If you are connected via cable, please unplug the cable from the computer then mobile phone.
    2. Remove all Nokia software from your computer. Select the "Start" button on your computer, then go to "Control Panel". Inside the "Control Panel", click on "Classic View" and then please double click "Programs and Features" and scroll down to Nokia PC Suite and select "Uninstall/Change" to uninstall it. Remove all Nokia software that come up in the "Programs and Features" list.
    3. Restart your computer. When the computer has started up, disable all firewalls and antivirus.
    4. Log on to http://europe.nokia.com/A4144903. Click download and then proceed to "Save" (not "Run") the PC Suite file to your "Desktop".
    5. Upon completion of downloading PC Suite, you can click on "Run" to begin installation.
    6. Once installation is complete, "Welcome to Get Connected wizard" window would prompt. Select you connection type - cable connection.
    7. Please only plug in the cable when the wizard prompts you to do so.
    Once you have established a connection between your phone and PC, kindly proceed to use "Update phone software" on Nokia PC Suite."
    NB! THE NEW VERSION OF PCSUITE KEPT CRASHING TO ME!
    Load of rubbish isn't it? NOKIA has produced a phone with technology exceeding your wildest dream but cannot make a software program to run with the latest PC OS from MS, the biggest and most used OS!
    Hope it helps some of you...

  • Is it possible to transfer my downloaded QuickTime Pro software from my old computer to my new computer?

    Is it possibile to transfer my downloaded QuickTime Pro software from my old computer to my new computer?  I don't want to buy it again if I can help it.

    Open the QuickTime Player 7 app and look under the Edit menu / Preferences / Registration window to copy down the name, org and number.
    Install the free player on the new machine and enter the registration info and test. If everything works as it should erase the registration info on the old machine.

  • Having a problem installing Quicktime/itunes software can't control where it's going to download

    so i'm trying to load quicktime/itunes software on my Win7 laptop. had it on the same laptop but with vista. i can not control where the software is being downloaded too. Trying to send to my external drive labeled originally F: somehow it got changed to I:. The package doesn't recognize the label F: and says there's not enough space. I have 410gbs free! The package doesn't give me the option to change where i want to send it. Can't DL bonjour for the same reason. Safari 5 wasn't a problem. So what's the verdict, y'all? I can't update my itouch, which i'm sure sorely needs it.
    Thanks in advance
    Nagoosh

    ok so after days of trying I finally got it to work...
    here's what I did.
    1. Uninstall old versions of iTunes. Reboot.
    2. Uninstall old versions of Quicktime. Reboot.
    3. go in and remove any left over traces of QT or iTunes from hard drive
    4. Remove temp files related to itunes or quicktime. Reboot.
    5. Uninstall audio driver for audigy 2 (WDM)
    6. Install new version of iTunes
    7. reinstall drivers for audio
    8. reboot
    9. check audio drivers (for some reasons even though I reinstalled it didn't come back as the right one after the restart and was listed as disabled) update the driver.
    10. Reboot again
    11. now things should work again.
    2 quick notes... Make sure to save a backup copy of your itunes library.itl and your itunes music library.xml so you can system restore back and have the old version work, just in case.
    now I Can't be sure... but I assume something like step 9 was happening and not showing up that way in my drivers... although that doesn't explain why uninstalling and fresh installing after installation didn't fix it earlier. but it works now and I'm thrilled.

  • Missing Software Code

    I'm not able to install CS5 Update version on new PC.
    Available are SWCode and Activation Code for Phototoshop 7.
    From CS3 only the activvation Code is stil avalable, Software had been stored  on the former PC now no more available.
    From CS5 both, SW and activation Code are available.
    How can I install CS5 on the new system.
    Thank you
    Karl der Große

    Der Aktivierungscode für CS5 Upgrade wird als richtig erkannt.
    Da es sich um die Upgrade Version handelt, sucht die Installationsroutine wohl CS3 auf dem Rechner.
    Aber die Installationssoftware findet diese nicht, denn es handelt sich um einen neuen PC.
    Der Versuch den CS3 Aktivierungscode einzugeben, wird zurückgewiesen.
    Ich könnte Photoshop 7 wieder installieren, das Upgrade auf CS3 durchführen und dann das Upgrade auf CS5.
    Aber dafür fehlt mir die SW für CS3, die nur auf dem defekten PC gespeichert war. (Leider ist keine CD Kopie von CS3 verfügbar)

  • Quicktime Pro software missing.

    I have a .mov file I am unable to view in Quicktime Pro 7.1 for Windows.
    When I try to run it, I get the following error:
    Some Quick Time Software is missing... etc.
    When I ask it to continue, it brings me to a Quicktime Components page.
    Which one do I need? There are many to choose from and some just don't look like they relate.
    Also, I cannot play this on my eMac running 10.4. Same thing.
    Under movie properties, the Sound Track is WMA2 and the Video Track is WMV3. You'd figure a PC running XP Pro would have the necessary codecs?
    Thanks for any insight to this.
    Mike
    Athlon 1800   Windows XP Pro  

    The reason it may play on a Mac is that those users have installed http://flip4mac.com component which allows playback of WMP formats via QuickTime.
    Flip4Mac is a Mac replacement of Windows Media Player for Mac. Microsoft no longer makes a Mac version of Media Player.
    Is your Media Player version 9?
    *Edit*
    We were both typing at the same time.
    Use the Mac that has Flip4Mac "Pro" to export as WMP file (.wmv) and it should work in Media Player.

  • QuickTime says "missing software"

    My QuickTime doesn't want to play some files. It handles some just fine, ones which I've had for a while, but when I try to play more recent files, it says: "QuickTime requires additional software to playback this media." I tried reinstalling as well as re-downloading and installing QuickTime, but it didn't help. The error message said I might be able to find the software from the QuickTime Components page, but everything I could find was for Mac (unless I missed something.) The files aren't bad either, as my brother's computer (a mac) plays them just fine.
    I have the most current version, too. If anyone knows what could be causing this, I would greatly appreciate the help.
    Thanks.

    How would we know if you downgraded your system?
    Please focus here.
    It doesn't matter much that you created the file. It matters what codec you used. Right click on it and get the properties of the file.
    From your description I would guess you created a mpeg2 file. The clip will not play correctly in FCP without the audio and video being demuxed. Many use MPEG Streamclip for that purpose.

  • Missing SOftware Restore DVD's

    Hello.
    I have a white MacBook that I bought last year (March 2008), and I lost the restores DVD's that came with the computer.
    I read many forum post and it seems there's no way to get those DVD's from Apple (I don't have Apple Care).
    My question is:
    What's inside those DVD's?
    If I buy Mac OS X v10.5.6 Leopard and iLife 09, do I need any additional software that is inside those DVD's?
    I have a friend that has the DVD's, is possible to make a backup copy? How can make it?
    Thank you.

    Even if you don't have AppleCare, you can call up Apple and they'll send you replacement discs for a nominal fee. This is far less expensive than a retail copy of Leopard+iLife.
    I believe buying a retail copy of Leopard+iLife would be enough, but I'm not completely certain. I do know that you wouldn't get a copy of the Apple Hardware Test, but I'm not sure what else would be missing.
    You can't use a friend's discs as the restore DVD's are machine-specific.
