Quicktime no longer plays in Internet Explorer

My website was made with iWeb08 and everything worked fine but now after a quicktime update the quicktime will not play on the site. When the page starts I am prompted theat the page wants to install ActiveX Control for Quicktime which I allow and install. However, it either doesn't actually install because it continues to ask the question everytime I go to the website. I have Quicktime 7.6
Everything works fine using FireFox but not on I.E (7) (on my PC). It also works on my Mac using Firefox or Camino.
What's wrong?
Please check it out at my site

Thanks

Thank you. I review it but it does not really seem to have anything to do with my problem.
I have had the exact same content on my site for the past year and it has worked fine in I.E. and others.
Suddendly I.E. is not working with Quicktime and I have made no changes.
It has something to do with Quicktime and iWeb and I.E. interface.
If iweb working with Quicktime in I.E. does not work correctly, I should not need to make code changes, the application will be no longer any use to me and I will no longer use iWeb. This is a compatibility and release (version etc) issue.
Thanks for responding

Os X Server 10.6.7 media in default blog won't play in Internet Explorer.

I use the default web blog function in os x server to post some tunes I made in Garageband for my friends and family to check out. These media files do not play in Internet Explorer, even when QuickTime is loaded on those computers.
I have resorted to using my old trusty eMac running 10.4.11 Server to host my tunes now, and it's no problem. They play on Windows IE 9, and 8 no issue. Even Windows Media Player handles the tunes without installing QT.
Kind of frustrating when my $50 Apple eMac is doing what I want my $$$$ Mac Pro to do!!
Are there in fixes for this problem? It seems to have occurred in a recent update.
Hopefully Lion Server addresses this issue. I don't use PC's too often, but most of the world does and I would like for people with that configuration to be able to hear my music without having to load Safari and QT.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Ok the problem its like that: i have 1 mac mini with 10.6.5 and itunes 10.1 and all videos work perfect, but in my macbook pro with 10.6.5 and itunes 10.1 too, some doesn't doesn't work, its not a problem of purchased videos or not, i think that the problem is about codecs or DRM cause i connect my macbookpro to a TV via HDMI and since then some videos didn't work.
if you put get info in the video that doesn't work, there is only the info at left and there is some info miss at right like : profile, channels, total video rate, video dimensions and video codec.
Desperately looking for a fix any help will aprecciate it
thanks
PD. i try itunes 10.0 and it didnt work either

Quicktime won't work in Internet Explorer

Everytime i log into a site that has a quicktime streaming video, all I get is the quicktime symbol with a question mark over it. what could i do to fix this? I have quicktime pro and have reinstalled the software.

for some reason MS has made some changes to it's activeX controls i am trying to figure out some ways around it since develop movies for the web but as of right now the embed tag does not work in internet explorer so most websites that have quicktime and use the embed tag will not load if you use internet explorer.

If you use QuickTime and have experienced the dialog referenced above while attempting to watch QuickTime movies with the updated Internet Explorer for Windows, you may consider trying an alternative web browser.

Quicktime content will not play in Internet Explorer 8 or Chrome

Hi,
So I go to the apple website to watch some ads, the iMac videos and movie trailers.
I have quicktime 7.6.4 installed and working.
I have Tunes 9.0.2 installed and working.
I have Vista 64 bit home premium installed.
Internet Explorer 8. Quicktime content will not play. Neither the Mac ads, or the iMac videos or the movie trailers. I get the message "Quicktime required. Free download".
Google Chrome. Quicktime content will play the Mac ads and the movie trailers but will not play the iMac videos although it does try to load the video but fails to play it.
Firefox 3.5.5. Quicktime content will play the Mac ads and the iMac videos and the movie trailers.
Help.
Thanks

Just ran into this same problem after updating Itunes and Quicktime.
Got a Ipod Touch for Christmas, and downloaded latest version of Itunes and Quicktime and installed it without issue.
Quicktime movies (Mov) play fine, and mp3's play via Itunes, but in IE8 all I get is "QuickTime required. Free download" when I try to play movies on-line, such as trailers from the Apple Movie site.
Checked the plug-in folder for IE and all the QT files seem to be there.
I have uninstalled Itunes and Quicktime, restarted and re-installed but I get the same result.
Anyone got any clues ?

Flash Player is enabled, ActiveX Filtering disabled, yet Flash videos will not play in Internet Explorer 11

I have enabled Flash Player in add-ons for Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 8.1. I also disabled ActiveX Filtering as instructed while trouble shooting... Yet, videos still will not play on webpages shown in Internet Explorer. How can I fix this, since I have already followed instructions from Adobe completely? Flash Player is supposedly already be installed in Internet Explorer 11, but it is NOT working.

Long story short, the video site is probably going to need to change their content before it works in IE11+. I'd need some links to affected pages to tell you for sure (and even then, the complexity of websites these days makes debugging pretty painful).
In the meantime, you might just want to use Chrome for the sites that otherwise don't work.

Quicktime codec does not work, internet explorer just shuts down!

I have reinstalled quicktime many times and still I cannot view any videos or movie previews on internet explorer that use the quicktime plugin. When I open the page that is supposed to use the plupin, a window pops up saying I should install the ActivX controller. When I press ok another popup comes up saying that internet explorer needs to shut don because of an error. So it just shuts down. I have tried to go through the support pages and I cant see anything that would seem to help so there is anyone who knows how to fix this problem, I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

It's been years since I use Internet Explorer (especially on a PC).
You must "enable" the ActiveX control in IE. (Probably a preference setting).
Have you tried using other Web browsers? Most are free.

Flash Player no longer works in Internet Explorer on Win8.1 after system tune-up

I recently had my laptop computer tuned up. After the service I have lost the use of Adobe Flash Player. I have already done the basics. I went to Manage Add-ons and ensured Shockwave Flash was enabled. I went to Safety and ensured ActiveX was not checked. I also downloaded the latest version of the software; Flash Player 15. When I check the status on the Adobe site it states that Flash Player is installed but disabled. I have checked it a number of times and Shockwave is truly enabled. I can no longer watch videos and at those sites I get a message that states I need Flash Player to watch the videos. I have a Lenovo laptop with Windows 8.1. I have also tried with Chrome and have the same result. Flash Player worked fine before the tune-up and the company that did the service says it is a common problem with Windows 8.1 but offers no solutions. Does anyone have a recommendation or solution? I would greatly appreciate any assistance. Thank you!
Ramon

Hello Jeromie,
Thank you for the follow up. I was aware that Flash Player is included with Windows 8.1. This makes it even more frustrating because it is included and yet doesn't now work. I have not attempted to install it but I did download the latest version. I am frustrated because there is no way to speak with anyone directly at Adobe as to whether there is a fix but I do appreciate your expertise and advice. I have done the system checker with no improvement. I have also updated Java Script on the chance that would help but that does not seem to be the issue.
There is something blocking the enabling of Flash Player between Internet Explorer and Adobe Flash Player. Flash Player is enabled through Manage Add-ons but when the status is checked on Adobe it shows it disabled. I was considering resetting Internet Explorer to default settings to see if that would help since all this happened after my computer service. But that reset would permanently change any and all other settings I have done.
I am going to try and find an expert tech who may be able to get this resolved. I am still hopeful that you or someone else reading this post may be able to offer a solution. If not, I will have to learn to live with it until Microsoft decides to correct the issue.
Thank you!
Ramon

How to make an html5 video play from Internet Explorer 9?

Hello,
I have converted a swf eLearning video to html5 thanks to the cp converter. I can have the html output file played from Chrome but not from Internet Explorer 9. Could someone advise me, do I need some code to make it work? Thank you in advance for your help.
Emilie

One of the quick and easy fixes for your problem is to go into your source code and in the <head> change the following:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="chrome=1,IE=9" />
<meta name="viewport" content="user-scalable=yes, width=360" />
<title>IntroVideo</title>
Where it says ,IE=9"/> simply change the 9 to an 8....
this tells IE9 to act like IE8 and makes all the video content way more accessable!
hope this helps!
Cheers!

Blog/Podcast videos won't play in Internet Explorer

Ever since I upgraded our 10.5 server to 10.6 (currently running 10.6.8 update 1.1, users have been unable to watch videos that were added to the blog server using Internet Explorer. We tried them on a bunch of various Windows machines but the videos will not play. They play just fine when viewing on Firefox and Safari. Any ideas?

Here is an example of a video that works well in Firefox, Chrome and Safari, but not Internet Explorer.

QuickTime no longer plays certain MP4 files

After upgrading from 10.6 Snow Leopard to 10.9 Mavericks, I've noticed that all the MP4 files taken with my Samsung smartphone no longer play in QuickTime (or with Quick Look), whereas they played just fine in Snow Leopard. The MP4 files use the H.264 codec. Some other MP4s I have, which use the same codec, will play in QuickTime and Quick Look. I've also found some older MOV files (using the SVQ-3 codec) that don't play now.
Has anyone else encountered this? Is there any fix, or does it perhaps require an OS update? Since I skipped OS 10.7 and 10.8, I don't know what the situation was there.

Try downloading and using the QuickTime 7 from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923 - it might have some of the older file support still working whereas the QTX does not.

You may have better luck in the Quicktime threads.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/quicktime
This post by martbr explains the situation well…
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23530041#23530041
Try Quicktime player 7 (it's better if you have a QTPro 7 code)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
It seems to support everything that it did before Mavericks (including Flip4Mac & Perian codecs), what is different is that the OS uses AVFoundation not Quicktime, the former doesn't support additional codecs therefore there is little hope of getting Finder previews for files with unsupported codecs.

Amimation doesn't play in Internet Explorer

The Flash files do open up in FireFox from either a PC or Mac computer. Is there something within the code that I can take out by chance? I'm using an apple computer.
I get this message when I open up a flash file on my computer, but I do not get it when I open the webpage and click on one of the animated Flash video files.
"This page contains some SWF objects that may not work properly in the most recent version of Internet Explorer. Dreamweaver cannot convert them to the new SWF markups. Please delete each of them and insert again."
This is the code I'm using:
<div id="mov1" style="display:none;">
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" WIDTH="550" HEIGHT="800" id="sincero1.70.swf" ALIGN="">

Hi,
Some questions for you--
1) Just want to clarify, the SWF is produced using Captivate, right ?
2) What is the content of the WF, in case it contains Widgets try to generate one without these and verify the result.
3) What is the version of IE that you have been using?
Can you checked your Flash Player version and share that as well.
Thanks,
Anjaneai

Quicktime no longer plays my mp4's smoothly since i updated my system, any thoughts ?

I have been enjoying my Gopro Hero and playing mp4's on my Macbook. I updated the book from 10.5.8 to 10.7.5. With the upgrade Quicktime got upgraded to 10.1. All other aspects of the upgrade work fine however mp4s that played smoothly before are now unwatchable as Quicktime will not play them smoothly.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
BTW This is my first time here, i posted this in the wrong section earlier. Sorry.

Before I answer, let me provide a bit of history.
When iMovie was released, it was written in the "C" programming language. It stayed that way through v2.1.2. Then in v3.0 it was re-written in a language called "Cocoa". The result was a product that couldn't be used for more than a few minutes before it crashed or destroyed the video footage it was being used to process. It took several releases before iMovie resurfaced as something to be trusted.
Now Apple has done it again with Quicktime. This time the rewrite was from a collection of languags to "Objective C". And voila; we have "Mavericks" and Quicktime 10.1. And another period of time to avoid Quicktime "upgrades".
Personally I don't use OSX more than 10 hours a year and then for VERY specific tasks that I absolutely can't do in Mac OS 9.2.2. So I have no clever way to give you for reverting. My brute-force approach would be to erase an unused disk and install everything that you had on the original disk on the erased disk before you let auto-update loose on the ill-fated original one.
You might also ask in a forum that is specific to OSX. This forum is actually for the older stuff that was released before X showed up.

Since I updated Firefox, MySpace radio no longer opens. Internet Explorer will open the radio. Does Firefox block this Myspace feature?

Also, 'Help Menu' on Myspace won't open or appears in a very small space across the top of the screen. Editing functions e.g. 'Manage Videos' also does not work, but works fine in Internet Explorer.

It shouldn't be blocking Myspace. Could you try to clear the cache and see if that solves the problem? See this article for instructions: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/clear-cache-delete-temporary-files-fix-issues?s=clear+site&r=5&e=es&as=s
