Quicktime streaming and the Leopard Guest Account

If I set the account to be managed it doesn't work. I cannot access QuickTime streams using Leopard's built in Guest account. If I set the the streaming transport to http I get "403 forbidden", if I set it to udp I get "-3285 Disconnected". Anyone know how to fix this? I do not have the "Website Restrictions" turned on for this account. That is to say, I have the the controls enabled to block specific applications, but I set it to "Allow unrestricted access to websites"
(on this point, you can't NOT have the parentalcontrols proxy running for some, infuriating, reason. If you want to manage which Apps a given account access to, the parentalcontrols proxy is enabled, and cannot be bypassed, even if select not to filter web content)

I believe I have partially fixed the issue.
Disabling Parental Controls in the Guest account when logged into the Guest account does nothing, despite the prompt for an admin username and password. One must log into an admin account directly to turn them off via the Accounts control panel.
Turning Parental Controls off allows us to once again view streaming movies via the Quicktime plug-in in a webpage. Hooray!
However, Parental Controls remains problem, so it behooves Apple to figure out why it is interfering with basic functionality like this. Another issue turning off Parental Controls solved is an issue with Adobe's Flash plug-in in the Panaorama web site, a language learning textbook. With Parental Controls on, the voice recording functionality via Flash is broken, too.

  • I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
    Is this iPhoto on your Mac?  Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11?  If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
    Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

  • HT3819 Home Share issue: I have a Mac and Apple TV. Both are log into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view purchased movies on AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers. Itunes sidebar-no

    Has anyone else found solution to Apple devices not 'seeing' each other on Home Share?  I have a Macbook Air (new Nov'12) and Apple TV (new Dec'12). Software updated on both. Both are logged into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view movies purchased from iTunes on my AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers... and ... Itunes sidebar does not have a 'Shared' area at all.  Help please as without this functionality, my Apple TV only provides portal to purchased (i.e. Netflix,...) content which I can get from Wii or Xbox.
    I have already tried the following without success:
    1. Homeshare DID work the first day after I setup Apple TV... but the next day it has not worked since then.
    2. Powered off 30 sec then re-started (Apple TV & Macbook & iTunes login)
    3. Checked Firewall settings per Home Sharing troubleshooting guide (correct settings)
    4. Turning on Photostream in iPhoto and selecting iPhoto within iTunes and then checking to see if Photostream shows anything on AppleTV (it shows 'on' for my iTunes account but 'Zero' pictures found ... despite the >3,000 pictures showing avail in iTunes).
    I also have 'Remote" app on my iPhone 4, with Home Sharing turned on (same Wifi network)... it has a very similar message as the Apple TV and same result that despite all devices having HomeShare 'on' they cannot see each other:  "Remote will automatically find the iTunes libraries and Apple TVs that have Home Sharing turned on using the account xxxx (it lists my correct itunes account name)."

    I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

  • RDS 2012 - Slow Perforamance, random disconnects - The RDP protocol component X.224 detected an error (0) in the protocol stream and the client was disconnected.

    We have an RDS environment configured on server 2012 with approx. 20 users connecting for remote app utilization across 4 different locations that are connected via VPN. Server 2012 has great resources from the virtual host so system resource allocation
    shouldn't be an issue. I'm thinking these errors are correlating with the performance problems. Any recommendations on how to effectively end these errors or to boost performance?

    Hi Shane,
    Do you have any progress at the moment?
    Regarding the TLS error code 49, it indicates a valid certificate was received, but when access control was applied, the sender did not proceed with negotiation.

  • Since Mavericks was installed I amd having trouble streaming and the fan kicks in and stays on when I am watching stream in features

    Since I installed Mavericks I am having trouble streaming and the fan turns on and stays on shortly into watching a film on line.
    Also the screen breaks up  into lines and colors with no image in the middle of viewing a film sometimes several tomes.

    Hi Mudra,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your fan is running and you're noticing video issues when streaming video, I'd suggest first trying to reset your system, as described in this article:
    Apple computers: Troubleshooting issues with video on internal or external displays

    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    All the best,

  • Can I play 3D movies on a 3D TV using Quicktime 7 and the FBX QuickTime Viewer Plug-in from Autodesk?

    Can I play 3D movies on a 3D TV using Quicktime 7 and the FBX QuickTime Viewer Plug-in from Autodesk?  I would like to play 3D movies which are in Side by Side or Top/Bottom format where the image for each eye is 1080 x 720p.  I would like to output to a 3D TV connecting it to the Mac graphics card DVI output (with a HDMI 1.3 converter) using the 2nd Display option of Quicktime.
    These would be my 3D movies created with Final Cut and Stereo3D Toolbox from Dashwood.

    What type of files are these? It does seem odd that iTunes and QuickTime will still play the files, but Front Row refuses to.
    Did you have any codecs or plugins for QuickTime installed? It may be possible that one of the updates is either incompatible with, or removed, one of these.
    I recommend downloading Perian - a very versatile codec that allows the playback of many media files - and see if this cures the issue.

  • Can I stream from the same iTunes account to 2 Apple Tv's in 2 different locations?

    I currently have 1 Apple TV device at home.  I'm thinking of buying a second one to keep in my office at work across town.  My concern is this: my kids love streaming purchased movies and TV shows at home during the day while out of school.  Will I be able to stream content purchased on the same iTunes account at the same time while I'm at work and my kids are at home watching on my first ATV device?
    I know ATV isn't that expensive, but I would like to avoid duplicating purchases on a new iTunes account just so both locations can be streaming at the same time.  Anybody know if this is possible?
    Thanks ahead of time.

    Yes.  I would like to know if I can stream content from the apple store on both Apple TV devices simultaneously.  Not from a computer, but items purchased from the Apple store on my first Apple TV device.
    Thanks for the reply!

  • Photo stream and snow leopard

    Can I use Photo Stream with Snow Leopard and a 5 gen iPod Touch?

    I'm afraid you can't use Photo Stream with Snow Leopard. You would need to upgrade to minimum Lion 10.7.2 (Mountain Lion preferred) if your Mac can handle it.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications). (If you are currently pre-Snow Leopard you will have to upgrade to that to access the Mac App Store: it's available in the online Apple Store.)
    You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

  • Quicktime 10 and Snow Leopard

    I've just upgraded to Snow Leopard and I wanted to watch some previous keynote speeches and the latest rock and roll one, but the video is all blocky on Quicktime.
    When I load it up the sound is ok but the video is all blocky and the movement is jumpy.
    Any ideas?

  • Snow Leopard Guest Account Password Problems

    After re-booting I found I was in the guest account. So after going into the accounts manager I clicked on my user account only to find it wants my password....but after entering it I get the shaker routine. After clicking on the padlock it won't recognize my password any more, so what to do now? I used my old Leopard disk to re enter the password, but it won't allow that either. I now have a Snow Leopard upgraded? machine which won't let me access it. What good is this thing now?
    Soooo...what are my options? Is there a way to get back into my account? Do I just need to do a clean install? Can I get my saved data off Time Machine backups, even if I can't get to my original user account? HELP!

    You can log into the admin account with the new login password you saved for it. You can then launch Keychain Access & change the password for that account's keychain to the same thing. Otherwise, every time you do something that requires a password saved in that keychain, you will be asked for the keychain's password.
    There is nothing wrong with the utility app, just with your understanding of passwords & what they protect. The account's login password & those for any keychains it owns are different things & do not have to be the same -- they sometimes are not for increased security. For convenience, the default keychain is initially created with the account's password, but it isn't automatically reset to that value by the utility, again for security reasons.
    You don't have to know this to follow the instructions Apple provides but if you want to learn more about it the built-in Help System provides that, or you can purchase a book like "Snow Leopard for Dummies" or one of the "Missing Manual" series for more in depth or simplified treatments of the subject.
