QuickTime opens automatically + can't find url

For some reason my QuickTime (I have QT Pro) opens automatically when I try to access video content on certain websites, for example the BBC Collective website (http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/C1074). I can't find out how to stop this from happening, as I want the videos to be played in my browser window and not in the QuickTime player itself.
But the biggest problem is it keeps telling me "url not found", or "the url is not valid", something along those lines. Basically meaning I can't see the content at all. Very annoying.
I've got Flip4Mac and Perina both installed. Any ideas anyone?

*Regarding your first link:* http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/C1074
When I clicked on the above, it clearly states:
+"to access audio and video on collective you need real player."+
When I clicked on +"the colour out of space by hp lovecraft"+ (Mark E Smith) video a window popped up asking me if I wanted WMP or RP to play the videos. When I selected WMP, I got the pop up +"URL not valid error"+.
When I went back & selected RP, I could see & hear the above mentioned video.
You need RealPlayer 10 to view the above video.
*Regarding your second link:* http://www.bt.no/dyr/article470324.ece
A blank video window showed but the video did not play. Since the website is in another language which I did not understand I couldn't figure out what was wrong.
You will need to check out the website to find out which player is needed to view the videos since apparently you can read/understand the language.

  • I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again

    I have downloaded, extracted and installed Elements 12 but it will not open nor can I find the Adobe file in the file where I installed it to..  When I've tried to download and install again it says that the "Object Already Exists."  It may exists, but it is not visible in the file or in my list of programs on the Startup Menu.

    You should not have to uninstall Premiere Elements 12/12.1 in order to install and run Premiere Elements 13 on the same computer unless your computer is overloaded and the computer resources are compromised. Just use one program at a time.
    Can you still use 12/12.1 on this same computer that will not let you use 13?
    What specific Window operating system are you using?
    Let us go through the usual drill...
    1. Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    2. Are you using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    3. Did you install the program with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    4. Disable the SLCache Folder found in Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit
    Local Disk C
    Program Files (x86)
    Common Files
    Adobe
    and in the Adobe Folder should be the SL Cache Folder that you delete or disable by renaming the Folder
    from SLCache to SLCacheOLD.
    5. Are you running the program as Administrator and is the latest version of QuickTime installed on the same
    computer as Premiere Elements 13?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Is it possible to share my calendar with all my subscription? If so How can i find URL for this?

    Is it possible to share my calendar with all my subscription? If so How can i find URL for this?

    Hi yilmazfromlondon,
    The resource below explains how to share your iCloud calendars publicly.  Is this what you are asking about?
    iCloud: Share a calendar with others
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690
    iCloud: Share a calendar with others
    You can share a calendar both publicly and privately with other people. For specifics about viewing and editing privileges for shared calendars, and how participants can access the calendars, see Calendar sharing overview.
    Share a calendar privately
    Click the Share button to the right of the calendar name in the sidebar, then select Private Calendar.
    Note: You can also share the same calendar publicly. For instructions, see the next task, “Share a calendar publicly.”
    Type the invitee’s email address in the Add Person field and press Return.
    Click the pop-up menu with the invitee’s name and choose access privileges (View & Edit or View Only).
    For each person you want to share the calendar with, repeat steps 2 and 3.
    When you’ve invited everyone and set their privileges, click OK.
    Invitation emails are sent from your iCloud email address to the participants you specified.
    Share a calendar publicly
    Click the Share button to the right of the calendar you want to share, then select Public Calendar.
    Note: You can also share the same calendar privately. For instructions, see the previous task, “Share a calendar privately.”
    To invite people to view the calendar, click Email Link.
    Type one or more email addresses in the To field, then click Send.
    The people you specify automatically receive an invitation email that includes the calendar’s URL. An invitee doesn’t need to be an iCloud user to accept an invitation to view a shared public calendar.
    In the sidebar, a shared calendar has a dark Share button.
    You can also resend invitations to one or more invited participants at any time.

  • It can't find URL when i use HLS for vod and the vod file name contain Chinese.

    It can't find URL when i use HLS for vod and the vod file name contain Chinese。eg: http://127.0.0.1:8134/hls-vod/你好.mp4.m3u8.

    To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
    Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

    I Can't find Netflix on desktop nor can download from App Store. Shows it's open, but can't find it. Any thoughts?

    I would quit the app, since you see it's open, and close all the other apps, then go to settings and reset network settings. The iPad will reboot. Then when it's back again, do a search for "Netflix" which will show you the location of the app (in the search results)
    From my search, you'll see I have it located in a folder I created ...

    - Reset iPod touch. Nothing is lost: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Reset network settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings.
    When you reset network settings, your list of previously used networks and VPN settings not installed by a configuration profile are removed. Wi-Fi is turned off and then back on, disconnecting you from any network you’re on. The Wi-Fi and “Ask to Join Networks” settings are left turned on.
    - Power off and then back on the router.
    - Restore the iPod.

  • I've lost quicktime pro and can't find it. I had to re-install my HD and now QT Pro has gone and I can't find details of when I bought it.

    I'm 10.6.8 and I use a Macbook Pro. I bought QT pro a while ago and since I've re installed my stuff all I've got is QT and I need the older version (that I paid for) to edit.
    Any help will be much appreciated.

    It's not the player I need
    QuickTime Pro is not a separate application, so you won't find it by searching your system or by looking for a download. A Pro key just unlocks the extra features of QuickTime Player and the QuickTime browser plugin. You need the QuickTime Player 7 Kirk and I have referred to; only that version can be "unlocked" with a Pro key.
    I can't find that either. I've trawled my email and can't find it.
    Log into your account in the Apple Store and click on the Downloadable Software Purchases link. You should find the key shown there. If not, you may need to purchase a new key.

  • Can't open .pkg, can't find installer

    I'm trying to install new drivers for a M-Audio recording interface, the file is a .pkg, and I can't find Mac OS Installer. What can I use to open it, or where can I find a download for Mac OS installer? I don't even know why my computer doesn't have Mac OS installer.. I just installed Tiger only 5 days ago.

    It should be in your Applications/Utilities folder. If it isn't there you can do a custom install of software from your install discs (no need to do a full OS install). You can't download it from anywhere.

  • Every web page I try to open says "can't find server" I refresh and eventually it comes in sometimes in pieces.

    99% of the time a website will not open and I get the message "can't find the server" even happens with Mozilla when I click on help. If I use the refresh button usually the web page will eventually load sometimes it takes multiple clicks on the refresh button. Many times only parts of the page load and I still have to use the refresh button to get the whole page loaded.

    See [[Error loading web sites]]
    Out of date plugins can also play a role, so update the following:
    #Flash via http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    #Adobe Shockwave For Director via http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
    #Java via http://www.java.com/en/
    If the problem persists, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

  • Firefox and Sea monkey both crash on opening and can't find preference file

    I am using Mac Os X 10.5.8 and the latest versions of Sea Monkey and Firefox. Sea Monkey crashed while trying to access a conference. Now Sea Monkey crashes every time I try to open it as does Firefox.
    I suspect there is a corrupt preference file that both are trying to access but I can't find it. I've looked at some online places that suggest various plist files in the Library/preferences folder but there is nothing there under mozilla or firefox type names or one called com.apple.internetconfig.plist that was also suggested.

    Yay, solved it. Dances. The conference I was trying to access installed a plugin called WebEx.plugin. I removed this and both now work fine.

  • Old "installed" iSync doesn't open. Can't find appropriate download: 10.3.9

    I need to find a functioning version of iSync for my G4 iMac running 10.3.9 in order to sync my iCal items with a Palm Treo that I bought. My "installed" (unnumbered) version of iSync doesn't open and I can't find an appropriate version of iSync for my Mac to download. My machine won't allow me to install iSync 1.5.

    Welcome To  Discussions voicemark!
    See if the info HERE is applicable.
    "My "installed" (unnumbered) version of iSync doesn't open and I can't find an appropriate version of iSync for my Mac to download."
    What do you mean by "unnumbered"?
    Click once on the iSync icon to highlight it.
    Press the Command + I keys, to Get Info.
    What is displayed for Version?
    Navigate to HD > Users > Your Account > Library > Permissions.
    In that folder, locate, and move to the Trash this file com.apple.isync.plist.
    Run Repair Permissions.
    Try to again launch iSync.
    If that doesn't correct the problem, no guarantees, but you could try the procedure posted below.
    Move the currently installed iSync application, to the Trash.
    Also, in HD > Library > Receipts: Move any iSync files to the Trash as well, but don't empty it.
    Use the utility Pacifist, to extract a new copy of the original from the system restore disc.
    Run Repair Permissions.
    Install the downloaded iSync application.
    Run Repair Permissions again.
    Run Software Update, and install the available updates that are presented.
    Again run Repair Permissions.
    TO REPAIR PERMISSIONS ON THE STARTUP DISK
    1.Open Disk Utility, located in Applications/Utilities, and select the startup disk in the left column.
    2.Click First Aid.
    3.Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions. (I never "Verify". Just run "Repair".)
