Re; Can download movie trailers, YouTube, etc., with sound, but no visuals!

This seems to be a problem on my G3, running 10.3.9 with QuickTime 7.3. Any fix for this problem? I can occasionally get a YouTube clip to play, but the sound and the image are way out of synch and the play is very choppy.

My iMac G3 400 sits on the same table top as my newer G4 Mac mini and my XP PC shares a table next to it. The G3 has been "always on" since day one and gives me no trouble.
They all do different things and I use my older iMac for OS 9 and Mac 10.3.9 work.
But the G3 is not a way to view the most modern QuickTime formats and QuickTime is designed to drop frames during playback to preserve the audio portion of the file.
Your son will be getting a G5 machine long before I get one. I had hoped to "skip" the G4 model but money got in the way.
All of my machines share a connection via a router and I can mount any drive and switch OS's with impunity. I can use many out of date applications because of this ability to switch back and forth.
But I can't view modern QuickTime content on the G3 because of it's limitations. I still use it with QuickTime Pro version 6 because version 7 has left some features in the "dust" of modernization.

  • I am unable to download movies, MPG, WMV, etc. with Safari. Why? Any solutions?

    I am unable to download MPG, WMV,MPEG,etc, movies from the web when I am using Safari. Chrome works fine. Is there something in Safari that has to be adjusted or disabled to make it work?

    There is some anecdotal evidence that the scripts on the Apple site that are supposed to detect the version of Windows you are running may fail for some users - jumping straight to the "Thank you for downloading ..." page with the installer not having been downloaded.  As an alternative, you can go directly to the relevant downloads:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (32-bit) - itunessetup.exe
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit) - itunes6464setup.exe
    There is an alternative downloader for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
    iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
    that seems to address the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version (the alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer).  The "for older video cards" reference does not seem to fully define the scope of systems for which this alternative works better.
    See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation.

  • Video with sound but no visual

    i purchased video from tv shows. it downloaded ok but when i try to watch on the quick time i get no picture. i can hear the show playing but the screen is solid purple. how can i fix this?

    That is a Swing issue not JMF but here it is:
              if (c instanceof RealizeCompleteEvent) {
                   if ((visualComponent = player.getVisualComponent()) != null)
                        add(visualComponent);
                   revalidate();  // you miss this.
                   repaint();

  • White Screen with sound but no visual

    I just brought home my new imac a couple weeks ago and today was
    my first time uploading videos from my flip camera. On my old mac
    laptop (ibook g4) i was able to upload and view them immediately.
    But now on my new mac, i get nothing but a white screen and the
    audio.... what component do i need to install to see my videos...
    I've checked the flip video on another computer so its not happening
    on the flip site, but only when i try to play and view the videos
    on my new mac...
    Please help.. i want to use the new imovie to edit and create, but cant
    since quicktime doesnt show any visual....
    thanks
    Chaunna

    Having the same problem, but when I import my QT into Final Cut I can see them... I don't know how to fix the QT error, but until someone gives you an answer, you should be able just to import into IMovie and preview from there.

  • HT204370 can i download movie trailers in itunes store

    hi
    can i download movie trailers in itunes store

    You can't download the trailers, you can only view them in the store.
    If you have an iOS device and are in the US (I'm not sure it it's available anywhere else) then there is a Trailers app :
    Features:
    • Access hundreds of movie trailers, clips, behind-the-scenes featurettes, and images, available in HD or SD
    • Explore an interactive, year-long release calendar that helps you plan when you'll be going to the theaters
    • Save favorite movies and theaters for immediate access anytime

    Hello there, HannaGriffin.
    Since the Apple TV (1st Generation) is the only one that has storage, I would recommend the following Knowledge Base articles for troubleshooting issues with authorization:
    Apple TV (1st generation) may not play content purchased from the iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1359
    or
    Apple TV (1st generation): Apple TV repeatedly asks for password to play iTunes Store rentals or purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2845
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

  • HT4623 I can download videos in Youtube but when I try to play them nothing happens.

    I can download videos in Youtube, but when I try to run them, nothing happens. Any suggestions?

    You need to contact iTunes Customer Support.
    I had the exact same problem and they gave me a full refund so I could download the movies again.
    The cause is at Apple's end and you can't fix it from yours.

  • Trouble downloading movie trailers through the iTunes store

    Anyone else having trouble downloading movie trailers through the iTunes store? When trying to download them I get a "The requested resource was not found error". I'm getting it with the Star Wars 3D and also the Avengers trailer. Seem to be happening more often now and I find if it's happening to others.

    I've sent a few emails to the [email protected] address from the Trailer section of the Apple website but still have got no reply back.
    It seems to me there maybe a push to just stream the trailers instead of having a physical download in your iTunes library ...maybe? iTunes has been pushing the Avengers as a big event so doesn't make sense to not have the links working properly.

  • No option to purchase/download movie trailers

    So I did the update to both itunes and my ipad last week and I love downloading various movie trailers to share with my friends. Now I see the price as free listed but there is no longer and option to download the movie trailers.
    Even when I look at trailers that I downloaded a couple weeks ago the option to download them is gone.

    1. Try reset iPad
    Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down until you see the Apple Logo
    2. Sign out of iTunes & App Store and sign in again
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID>Sign out

  • I have downloaded music to my phone through my Apple ID and it has this message that reads you can download purchases on this device with one Apple ID account every ninety days, what does this mean and how do I fix it?

    I have downloaded music to my phone through my Apple ID and it has this message that reads you can download purchases on this device with one Apple ID account every ninety days, what does this mean and how do I fix it?

    Well, it doesn't mean that at all. You can download music purchased with an Apple ID to up to 10 devices. There is no 90 day wait. The wait is if you change the Apple ID.

  • I often download tv shows on apple tv. All of a sudden I don't have the option to download tv shows but can download movies. Internet connection is good. I simply don't have the search or download options for tv. What is happening?

    I often download tv shows on apple tv. All of a sudden, my screen does not display download options for tv shows. I can download movies no problem
    and the Internet connection is good. It just no longer shows options for tv shows except for my tv shoes (already downloaded). what is going on?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check your store location is set correctly, if this doesn't help, try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for a 30 seconds.

    You have to go to Settings>Store and log out of one account and log into the other account.  If you have updates available for apps that were purchased from more than one account, you have to update the apps individually until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
