Quicktime not playing after publishing page

I have a 13MB .mov quicktime which plays fine not only in iWeb and on its own, but plays when I put it loose in the Site folder and direct the browser to it, however when I add it to my site via iWeb and then publish, it shows up with a question mark over the quicktime. All my other movies with the same format play just fine, except for this one:
http://web.mac.com/jamin.duncan/iWeb/Site/BestBuy_Holiday4.html
if you remove the /BestBuy_Holiday4.html which is the iWeb html file and add /BBY_Pickup.mov it will play fine.
It's driving me crazy. Any ideas?
Thanks.

I think my problem may be related.
I have all the latest versions of everything.
I used iWeb to create and publish my site, took a week of trying with repetitive errors, finally successful.
However, some of the videos on my website only show a big blue "Q" with a question mark inside, and cannot play the video. The other videos show a "TV screen" with the beginning of the video displayed, I can click play and they play. But the problem of some videos just showing the "Q" confuses me. Thoughts?
I read the suggestion to look inside the Media folder to see if the movie file is there, but I don't know what this si or where to find it!

SWF does not play after publish.... OS compatibility bug?

I have embedded SWFs that will not play once the Presenter file is published. They appear to be "frozen" on the first frame.
Here's the setup:
The SWFs are scripted in AS2 (not AS3)
SWFs are built in Flash Pro CS5 and are published to Flash Player 9.
They are not Captivate files.
PowerPoint 2007 (12.0.6535.5002) SP2 MSO (12.6535.5002)
Presenter 7.0.5 Build 7588
Microsoft Windows 7 Pro 64bit
BUT, I can open the same file on another computer with this setup, and it publishes just fine.

PowerPoint 2007 (12.0.6535.5002) SP2 MSO (12.6535.5002)
Presenter 7.0.5 Build 7588
Microsoft Windows Vista Business
The only difference appears to be my OS. Does anyone know of any bugs with Presenter in Windows 7?
UPDATE:
As I type this, literally, I got a notice that there's a Presenter 7.0.6 Update. So I went ahead and installed it on the Windows 7 box. Republished the Presenter course, and wouldn't you know it... the SWFs are now playing!
The patch says this: The Adobe® Presenter 7.0.6 update resolves Adobe Presenter's compatibility issues with PowerPoint 2010 and some important issues identified in Adobe Presenter 7.0.5 (Although the patch site doesn't bother providing us with a list of what those important issues are! Thanks Adobe, you rock.)
--- Well, it fixes MY issue for Windows 7/Presenter 7/PowerPoint 2007 too.

See the updated within the post. Installing the 7.0.6 patch was the fix.

Videos Not Playing After Publishing

I am using Captivate 7 for Mac and uploading to the Litmos LMS platform. In preview, my videos are playing just fine. When I publish to zip and uploading to Litmos, they don't play. I get a little grey/white striped box making it look like it's loading, but nothing ever loads. This is super frustrating and I don't know the fix. I'd love to hear ideas on how to make this work - or at least ways I can troubleshoot.

Make sure your video files are placed in the same publish directory as the main SWF and that the link to these videos consists of nothing but the video filename. The video filename should contain no spaces or punctuation characters and should ideally be all lower case. Then after uploading to your LMS, make sure that the LMS administrator can confirm videos of this mime-type have been explicitly allowed on the LMS web server.

Quicktime not working after loading Lion. It is in Applications folder. It is dark when trying to play. Audio is there, no video. Is something set wrong?

Quicktime not working after loading Lion. It is in Applications folder. It is dark when trying to play. Audio is there, no video. Is something set wrong?

It is supposed to be dark.
Is it all videos that don't display or just some. You may have installed something like Perian or Flip for Mac that translates the video codecs for Quicktime. They may need updating.

Quicktime Thumbnail missing after publishing

I'm using iWeb '09 3.0.1. to build my website. I've got lots of quicktime videos. I used the Inspector to select a thumbnail for my Quicktime clips, but after publishing the clips just start in black. I've had this problem since I first built the site last year. I thought with the latest version of iWeb it would be resolved. No go. I'm having other issues like most of the videos not publishing, but I'm going to try a clean publish later tonight after I delete all the current files and folders from the host site. In the meantime, any suggestions on the thumbnails?
Thanks,
Erik

Erik:
As Roddy pointed out others have had problems with the poster frame feature in the Inspector/Quicktime pane. What's the URL of your site so we can see first hand what you're referring to.
There are alternative methods of adding a QT file to a page that might work for you. See this demo page: Opening Item in a New, Precisely Sized Window. This demo page has 8 videos on it using that method: PhotoPresenter Animated Slideshow Themes.

Top Nav buttons not working after publish, but works in app. WHY?

I have tried to find out why these buttons will not work after publishing. They work fine while in the iWeb app, but not when publishing. I do not have any objects near the top nav buttons. The first site went off without a hitch
<www.serenitycustompools.net> the second site began the problem with the last page, the nav buttons would not work. Now this 3rd site, none of the nav buttons at top will work after publish, but will work in app. Anyone else having the same probs? None of my pages have the same names or any punctuation marks, and they are simple one word named pages.
mini intel Mac OS X (10.4.9)

They all work for me, try clearing your browser cache or using another browser.

HELP!!! iTunes not playing after lastest upgrade

My iTunes is not playing after lastest upgrade, and i onli hear a lo buzzing sound wiht i hit the play button, and the diamond thingy is still moving. I tried reinstalling and re importing the music files, but i juz wouldn't work. help

Nope i did not have any success with the other possibilities, other then the one concerning the hardware.
hmmm. okay, if you switched sound enhancer off, that probably would have covered that possibility anyway.
we'd better check your video drivers as well as your sound card drivers. (old video drivers can cause problems with Quicktime that can show up as itunes audio problems, since QT provides audio playback for itunes.)

Some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0

some mp3 files do not play after upgrading to iTunes 8.0
have upgraded and some songs which used to play on iTunes 7 no longer play. album art is missing. when trying to play on of these songs, nothing appears in the playbar at the top of the window.
it seems the same problem exists in the mac os environment.

The solution I discovered to fix this problem was to create a smart playlist with all song of a kind containing MPEG. Then I went through album by album, and coverted ID3 tags using the value of NONE. This then enabled me to play the songs in iTunes 8.0 and in many cases restored the Album Art.
Thanks!

Rented movie does not play after download if not connected to the internet

rented movie does not play after download if not connected to the internet

Hello b noir.
Thank you for your interest in solving my problem.
What I did I opened iTune. I read the information about what does my computener need to play back a rented movie. My computer is okay to play back rental movies. So I went to the iTunes store, I searched for the movie I want to watch, i singned in into my Mac account and I bought the movie. The movie started to download to my computer, it took some time because I bought a HD version, but it never stop and after a couple of hours or little less the movie was in the Rented folder of my iTunes and also I checked to be sure that was in the movie folder. So, next day I open iTunes and click on the movie, it opens but I wait for five minuetes and never started to play back, so I tried several time and I looked for info in different internet forums but I couldn't find anything that help. So I posted the problem in this forum and also I called Apple. Apple contacted me and they let me to download the movie again. So I did it and now I will watch the movie later. Not sure if the movie will play back normally or if I am going to have the same problem. I'll keep you posted.
Apple representative did not know why this happened.
Thanks.

Sounds with Buzz not playing after upload

Hi,
So I have a project that works fine testing in browsers but when I upload it I get no sound. I have the sounds saved in oog, mp3, and wav. The file structure is the same, buzz script is uploaded as well as the sounds folder. I did change the html file name to index.
Does anyone have any ideas on why the sounds wont play?
Thanks

Thanks for responding. Sorry I had forgoten the link.
http://briancschneider.com/zip/web
I'm not using edgecommons. I'm using buzz! for the sounds.
Checking other threads on sound was very helpful in getting the sound set-up. I've been unable to find a thread about sounds not playing after upload except certain formats not playing in some browser. That shouldn't be my issue since I have the sounds in multiple formats, but I'm obviously overlooking something so...

My music will not play after it gets to a certain volume. It works fine if i turn it up loudly however when i turn it down past a point it will not work and the music wont play.

If in settings, music, volume limit is off then restart your phone first. Hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up.

Media file (quicktime) not playing when Pages document is saved as a pdf

I added a quicktime file (a movie trailer) to my presentation and it plays when in Pages - but when I export it to a pdf it is just a black space. 1. are these links/media files are supposed to be active when in a pdf format 2. how can I get the media file to play when it is saved as a pdf? 3. Will those who I email it to be able to play the media file when they open it up on their computer?
thanks so much in advance - I am under a tight deadline so any help would be appreciated!

Multimedia is not embedded in exported .pdf files.
You will need to relink them again in the .pdf using Adobe Acrobat Pro.

Pages not blue after publishing

I've published my site twice the page two days. Yesterday I could not get the site after publishing. The pages did not turn blue. Today I started over and published the entire site again. Got the notice my site had been published. Went to the site. All's ok there, but iWeb program has not turned the 'red' pages 'blue' indicating that they have been published. Should I publish again?

Mp3 Players suddenly will not play on published website

For 2 years, the two MP3 included on one particular page successfully played when published within iWeb and then uploaded to the internet.
Today, upon checking the site, on this particular page, the MP3 players appeared with '?'. Whereas, on other pages MP3 players are loaded and could be played.
I have remounted the page several times to no avail, then went back to iTunes and re-loaded the two songs on separate Playlists and chose MP3 player file format to ensure I have good versions.
The two MP3 players were drag/dropped from iTune onto a new page where they play perfectly well, but upon publishing the page within iWeb, the new versions still would not publish.
I am at a loss as what to do next. This is a very well-visited page with 2 beautiful songs on it.
Why, after 2 years of successfully publishing and uploading this page to the internet, the two MP3 players do not function as noted above.
I apparently have enough web space, but my internet speed is low.
Would the low speed be a factor?
I know that during business hours, my time allotment wanes and have to wait until 2:00 a.m. to do the Media upload. Try to access my Domain Host techie takes several days meanwhile the page remains on website with dysfunctional MP3 players, which is not good for viewers.
I am now questioning if this is the problem, that is, low internet speed? That can be resolved by purchasing higher internet speed.
HELP!
Thank you, in advance for your assistance.

How are you loading the audio into iWeb?
Where are you publishing to - MobileMe or another server?
If you are using QuickTime and are publishing to a "real" server, make sure your audio file is present in the "media" folder on the server.
Have a look at this section for more information on playing audio on your site......

SWF not Playing in Web page

I am receiving the error message 2148 on connection refresh. Here is where I am at now with the work flow:
1. Published a swf that is connected via xml maps to a folder called call center on my server.. When I open the swf from that local location on the server it works perfectly(open from file not thru http). Updates and functions on refresh.
2. Server is an application server running IIS. Using Front page to publish files to local intranet web pages. Import the swf to frontpage embed into index.html inside a flash movie player. Save, when viewed thru Internet explorer the error comes up 2148. Accessed from the server thru HTTP or on the network can see the dashboard and functions after you click OK to turn error off, but when you refresh the connection the error comes back.
3. Have global settings to the rootwww folder as always allow.
4. Have a crossdomain policy file in the root directory rootwww saved as crossdomain.xml:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM

What am I doing wrong?
