Quicktime stopped playing audio online

I have a powerpoint lesson online and there is audio attached that plays through quicktime but it has stopped working and instead of an audio player there is not just a small quicktime icon in its place. How do I fix it so it will play again? This is online

"This just recently happened."
In that case, try the following............
Repair permissions & restart.

Trick/Tip: Open up GarageBand if installed then, open a program (optional).
Quit out of the GarageBand app.

  • I upgraded some things and Quicktime stopped playing MPEG-2 movies (black screen)!

    I upgraded some things and Quicktime stopped playing MPEG-2 movies (black screen)!
    I need help, I was ending a project and now it just plays black!
    I have quicktime X.
    HELP! PLEASE!
    thank you.

    Quicktime was working fine, I am not sure what Quicktime it was. I upgraded Java, I am not sure if I upgraded Quicktime. After that all quicktime movies with "MPEG-2 Video, Linear PCM, Timecode" codecs started playing black with audio in the background. iMovie was not used. Thank you, I am beyond desperate and I am starting to think no one can help me with this.
    Then I am not sure how your created the MPEG-2/PCM MOV files. Files not imported via the MPEG-2 Import codec would normall remain in their long GOP compression format which it not edit compatible in QT based video editors. Those that are imported via the codec to make them edit-compatible then need the codec for proper playback in QT based players/editors.
    Since you now say that "Quicktime is working fine," am I to assume that it is After Effects that is playing "black" screen videos and that the files play fine in the QT players? Since you also mention the files are time coded, am I to assume you used FCP or some other app to import the files (which may use the same sort of import workflow) or am I to assume it is the timecode data itself that you feel is now causing the problem. In either case, a Java update may have been a security update that is now causing your current issue by disallowing access to the required playback component for some unknown reason which Apple is unlikely to divulge if it refers to a software security risk.
    If problem is general on your system, then do you have a short sample file that you can upload for testing purposes on my Snow Leopard system? At the very least, this may confirm if the problem is general to all updated platforms or local to your individual system and/or user account.

  • Logic stopped playing audio

    Hello everybody, this is a vital question.
    After the latest security update, logic stopped playing audio. After a short debug I discovered that core audio doesn't show any external interface anymore, so any other song is affected. I dont know if the security update is related... Anyways Logic is gone and my songs too!!!
    Audio-Midi configuration, as well as the interface related control panels, work as expected and audio is correctly played by the finder. All other software which makes use of core audio (e.g. Bias Peak) works.
    My interfaces are AVID M-Audio Fast Track Ultra and, for this testing purposes, M-Audio Audiosport Duo (legacy), all with the latest drivers.
    Obviously my Logic is officially bought from the App Store.
    MacPro (late 2007) 7GB RAM 2 x 2,66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon
    Mac OS X 10.7.5 (latest update)
    Logic Pro 9.1.8 (1700.67) 32 bit (latest update)
    AVID M-Audio Fast Track Ultra with 2.2.2 firmware (latest update)

    Hey icedj,
    I had that happen. I had to trash my Logic prefs, then restart Logic. It's a P.I.T.A. because you lose various settings (color settings, for instance), but it fixed the problem for me.

  • Shuffle 2 stopped playing audio podcasts

    Hi. I have a Shuffle 2nd generation that just stopped playing audio podcasts. I've been listening to music and OTR and CBC Radio podcasts, and all of a sudden it stopped playing the podcasts. Music plays fine, but if I just load it with podcasts, and try to play them, my little light just blinks (saying "you don't have anything loaded!"). It still plays the music, but skips over each podcast.
    The podcasts are good. I used to play the exact same ones a month or two ago - then it just stopped playing them. I can listen to the podcasts on Itunes, and can listen to them on my old Shuffle 1st generation.
    Help!

    ooh, I did a bit more research and found a solution for my problem.
    iPod shuffle won't play podcasts if its in shuffle mode.  You have to switch it to linear mode.
    I did that and now it plays just fine.  Hopefully that's all that was wrong with yours as well.
    I must have accidentally switched mine by accident and not realized it.

  • Apple TV2 periodically stops playing audio

    Hi
    I have had an annoying problem with my Apple TV2 after upgrading to the latest firmware (6.0). When streaming video content from my MacMini Server (via ethernet) the Apple TV periodically stops playing the audio while the movie keeps playing without audio. I can solve the problem by pausing and then continuing the movie, which will bring back the audio.
    I have tried to restore and reinstall the firmware (6.0) via the Apple TV because I also had problems with the Apple TV stuttering when streaming content from my MacMini, but the reinstallation of firmware did not solved the issue.
    I don't know if this is somehow related to the issue, but after having updated to firmware 6.0 Netflix often ask me for my login credetials on the Apple TV. This is an issue that I also never experienced before upgrading the firmware.
    What to do now?
    Thanks...

    So it's been a few months since I saw this thread started, and I am still having the same issues as above with my Apple TV 3. I can go a day or two and at some point, all connections just seem to error out. HBO go, Netflix, me streaming from my ipad, etc.   thought they would have been addressed by now.
    I have to hard reboot (power plug only) in order for it to go back to normal.
    I know it's a hardware issue as I have an Apple TV 2 setup in another room and it never gives me an issue,
    The weird thing is, I have the exact same setup at my office as well.  An Apple TV 3 in the main conf. Area and an Apple TV 2 in our break area. Same issue - Apple TV 3 needs hard (pore Plug) reset every few days and the Apple TV 2 in the break room is rock solid for months.
    Both Apple TV 3 units are at most recent 6.1 software release.
    Anyone have any ideas?  Think I a just going to put my Apple TV 3's aside for a while and use the 2's until it gets worked out.

  • Audition CS5.5 suddenly stopped playing audio?

    Audition has been running perfectly for the past month since I got it,
    but all of a sudden, the audio stopped playing? The tracker is still moving and the mixer levels are still jumping around like they do when you play something back?
    In the preferences menu, in the Audio Hardware section,
    It's only showing 'ASIO4all v2' as a device and nothing else - normally there is at least 2 or 3.
    I've done everything I could think of (Yes, including turning it off and on again)
    What should I do?
    I have to fix this quickly as I've got quite a bit of work to do and I'm stuck until it's done.
    I'm also using headphones if that helps at all.
    Thanks.

    ASIO4ALL is just a wrapper for other devices on your system.  If you click the Settings button in the hardware preferences, it should open the ASIO4ALL control panel.  You'll want to make sure the correct audio device is listed and enabled within.  Sometimes, if a device is disconnected or the driver is updated, ASIO4ALL may not recognize it as the same device it was using before. 
    Depending on what audio device you have, you might want to try choosing MME as your Audio Driver option and selecting the device directly and see if you have a similar problem.

  • Quicktime and Playing Audio CDs - Why Can't I Select the Whole CD to Play?

    I unfortunately agreed to update my Quicktime software when prompted by Apple. Since then, when I try to play audio CDs while working on my Mac, I have to select one song at a time and then select "play" in order to hear it. Now, only 48 hours ago, all I had to do was double click on the audio CD and the whole thing would play with no problem. This is why I am so wary of this so-called "convenient" and "user friendly" update alerts because you never know what the update actually contains and how it is going to change the behavior of your computer!
    Anyone out there in the Mac community know how to fix this problem?

    Anyone out there in the Mac community know how to fix this problem?
    Would assume most people now use iTunes to import/convert audio files for playback/storage on their computer/iPod and/or burning of custom MP3 CDs which hold on the order of 10 times as much music and are compatible with most current generation CD/DVD players.

  • For certain songs on my iPhone 4s with iOS7 some songs stop playing audio but continue playing the song almost as if it were muted. Where can I fix this? Say "Stronger" by Kanye West stops playing sound after 2:25 but it is 5 minutes long.

    Basically it is just like it says. Certain songs stop playing sound after a certain point in the song but the song continues playing and ticking down like it normally would. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Hi I found the answer from another post. So far everything is working find. I been trying to fix this since march,

    Deleting the application rarely solves anything on Macs. A better starting point is normally to delete the preference file for the application (in Users/~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.itunes.plist) or see if you have the same problem in another user account on the computer.

  • QuickTime stops playing

    I had to downgrade from Pro 7 to Pro 6 because the MBox wont work with Pro 7 on the Net. Now for some reason (and it seems totally random) im playing a track in quicktime, and it will stop. when i look at it, the "Markers" have moved so it stopped at the "end marker". I put the markers back to where the belong (ie at the start and very end) and hit play, and it plays, but the time stays at 00:00 and the progress arrow doesnt move. It then plays for around 4 seconds before, once again, stopping. I click anywhere on the track and it will play for about 2 seconds before once again, stopping!
    What is going on?

    A few things don't match with your profile.
    QT 7 requires 10.3.9. And Digidesign has upgraded their software to work with Tiger, and QuickTime 7.
    Since you say you've "downgraded" to QT 6 we can only assume you use 10.3.9.
    Open the Audio MIDI Setup app (Utilities folder) and set the audio out format to 44100Hz. Quit and relaunch the app and try the file again.
    Update your third party software and you'll have a better experience.

  • Quicktime only plays audio from video files!

    When looking at quicktime files, such as on Apple Trailers, HD files work, but the standard ones won't play, just the audio. There isn't even a blank screen or anything, just the audio bar!

  • Quicktime only playing audio

    Downloaded some videos from my gfriends video camera & all QT plays is the audio. Tells me that I may not have the components needed to play videos. They are .mov files. She has a newer mac & they play on hers. I downloaded the latest version of QT and it still only plays the audio.
    Info tells me that the codecs are MPEG-2 SD Camcorder, Integer (Little Endian), Timecode.
    I'm lost on what to do.

    Dear KQK, I'm running Quicktime 7.5.5 and I don't get any sound when playing back some of my AVI files I downloaded from a file sharing network. About 1 in 10 has no sound. If you can help me with this problem, I will gladly buy your PDF file about Quicktime. Godspeed

  • Quicktime not playing videos online

    so, i'm trying to watch a video online using quicktime, but everytime i try to watch it, i get a the quicktime Q with a question mark. I've updated to the new version and updated adobe flash player, but its still not working. Is there a problem with the plug in, which is enabled, or something else?

    Is there a problem with the plug in, which is enabled, or something else?
    The QT symbol with question mark is an indicator that the software could not "trap" a specific error and is indicating that the user must manually look into/solve the problem. This could be anything from a non-specific plug-in problem with unsupported or unrecognized content to a valid pointer to content than cannot be accessed to errors not properly trapped in the HTML script for that page.

  • Captivate 4 stopped playing audio files

    I am using captivate 4 on a Windows 7 64-bit HP Pavilion laptop.  I had not used Captivate in several weeks.  When I went in today to work on a project, the audio no longer works.  Everything appears to be fine, but there is no sound when I play the audio.  I have loaded all the latest updates and I am running as Administrator in Windows XP Compatibility mode as recommended.
    I would appreciate any help as I am under a tight deadline and have no idea what else to try.

  • QuickTime stops playing if moved across desktop boundary

    Hi, I have a dual monitor setup, if I drag my custom QuickTime player (win32 c++) across from the 1st monitor to the 2nd, playback of the QuickTime movie stops and does not continue. Any ideas?

    Interesting question. I'm using dual monitors also and didn't get the same result when dragging a .mov from the primary to secondary monitor. The only thing I can think of is try opening the QT control panel to Advanced. Where it shows Video, try experimenting with those preferences

  • Quicktime stopped playing attachments from email

    When I first got my iPhone 4S, I used to be able to download attachments from them, like videos and such.  I would scroll down to the bottom of the email, click the attached file, once completed I would click the attachment again and it would start playing the video.  For some reason now, when I click on the attachment after it has downloaded, it goes to a new screen where it shows the title of the video but doesn't play the video.  All it shows is a black screen with the title on top.  At first I thought it was just the new emails wern't compatable, but I even went back to some of the older emails that I know worked before and they won't play now.  What happened?  How can I fix this?  Please help.
