Recording desktop in Quicktime 10 does not work in SL

OS 10.6.8 and QT 10.0 (131)
I want to record one of my desktop processes with QuickTime (v10.0). However it does not work, I get the following message:
The operation couldn't be completed. (OS Status error -108.)
I do get a file that appears to be the recording but it does not want to open. And I do need to force quit QuickTime almost every time the error appears.
On my other Mac, also with 10.6.8, it works fine. So I am puzzled.
Anybody know what this could be? How to fix? Open to suggestions.
I was also looking for a version of QT10 to reinstall it but can not find one. ( I was hoping this might fix it).

Why not use QuickTime 7.6.6 which is located inside your utility folder?
I was also looking for a version of QT10 to reinstall it but can not find one.
You can custom install directly from your system disc that came with your computer. Follow the onscreen custom install instructions.

Why does quicktime does not work on os lio

why quicktime x does not work on OS Lion

QuickTime does work under 10.7, however you may want to check that you're opening the newest copy of it by going to your Applications folder and opening it from there.
If you keep having trouble with opening it, please let us know what error you might be getting. QuickTime X will open with just a menu bar, then you can go to the file menu and choose to open any file you wanted to open, or choose one of the screen or audio recording options.

Please help! New desktop archive function DOES NOT work!

Am using the new vista Desktop 6.2.1
I have been using Treos for many years, and I often delete and archive address, memo, todo and datebook records. I keep critical archive files for reference and often do refer to old archived records.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM: Whenever I delete and choose to archive an address entry or memo from my Treo and then hotsynch, the desktop hotsync process does not add the deleted records to the appropriate archive files the way it should and the way it has worked for years, in this case address.aba and memopad.mpa - the desktop hotsync process OVERWRITES those archive files. You lose all of your old archived data, anything that was archived is wiped out and replaced with the most recently deleted and archived records
SO for example: I had 20 archived contacts in my address.aba file. I deleted a contact from my Treo and wanted it archived. After the hotsync all 20 archived contacts were gone, the only record in my address.aba file was the most recently deleted and archived record.
I have tested this carefully and many times now with the address and memopad and the same thing happens.
Am I the only one who uses the archive PIM files as valuable references? Can not imagine so, and can not imagine I am the only one who noticed this problem, or the only one it is plaguing.
Can anyone offer an explanation and solution?
Thanks

I have the same problem. When I "upgraded" from a Treo 650 to a Centro Verizon, it came with Desktop version 6.2.2. The archive function does the same thing when I try to archive my Tasks.
I have gone on Palms Chat service, called their support on the phone several times, sent an email to the Access software public-relations message center, and done everything I can to correct the problem with no success. The Palm support people don't even seem to understand my problem, let alone how to correct it.
One technician told me that Access desktop version 6.2 doesn't work and to go back to version 4.1.4E. That doesn't work either.

How do I get a virtual lab to play,quicktime does not work with this CD,I have quicktime on other computers works fine with this CD. Technician said Cd could

How do I get a virtual lab to work on this computer. The technician said the CD is not compatible. Maybe corrupt. He seemed he did not know
what he was talking about. I asked him was it any software I could download he said no. This CD works fine on my other computer, no it is not an apple computer. And I use quicktime on both computers. But on this apple computer quicktime does not play this CD, which this type
of CD works better with quicktime. Any suggestions on how to solve this problem. This is a new computer, I would hate to think their is nothing that can be done.

I need step by step instructions on how to get my virtual lab cd to work. The technician said cd not compatible or is corrupt. I do not believe their is nothing that can be done. When I put the cd in the side slot nothing comes up on the screen. I have tried several ways, the technician did not seem very knowledgeable on what to do. Also this cd plays fine on my other computer which is not an apple computer. Is there anything I can do to correct this?

WRVS4400N Remote desktop on Vista does not work

I have a WRVS4400N and all firmware, software is up to date and current. I can connect using remote desktop on a laptop with Windows XP Pro but cannot connect with a laptop using Vista Ultimate. I have used the new Quick VPN connect software, but when I try and use the remote desktop connection, it does not connect.
Is there a setting that is different in vista than windows XP that I need to change on the laptop or is it someting in the firewall in the WRVS4400N?

if your RDP is already working on your windows XP computer then there are no settings that needs to be changed on the linksys router, you have to double check the settings of your RDP application on your vista computer, possible that it is using a different port number

BB desktop for Mac Does not work Curve and G5 OSX 10.5

The RIM software simply does not work very well. I will keep it to update software, but as a product to sync my data between my BB and my 2 macs, it simply does not do what is needed.
Sync did not move the Address Book groups data over. The groups moved to the BB, but the groups were empty. Most of the address book contacts did have the group information in each file, but I could not filter by group as each group was empty. Also, a disturbing number of entries were duplicated, with the duplicated entries missing the group information.
The sync from the iCal application did not seem to go very well either as I received error messages on my Mac.
I am disappointed that RIM would not have a 32 bit version available for OS 10.2 - 10.5 and a 64 bit version for 10.6
I am surprised and disappointed that RIM would release a product with less functionality than the Mark/Space offering, and have a lack of bluetooth syncing.
I have gone back to "The Missing Sync" as that product does work and their support is very good. Unfortunately I had to play around with setting up a test account with no data in iCal and Address Book to zero out the errors that the RIM product put into my BB. I then had to do a second overwrite, this time with my main Mac account and my iCal and Address Book data.
My BB is back to running and syncing, but not on the RIM software.
I hope that RIM will revisit the Mac software and provide a product that answers the needs of the Mac community.

Home page link on desktop Facebook still does not work (pic included)

This does NOT happen in other mobile browsers, only Firefox. Over many Firefox versions on Android, the home link in top left corner of facebook does nothing when tapped/clicked. Same as the "Home" button on the top right. If I click the Facebook button 23 - 30 times, THEN it will load the newsfeed....otherwise it just sits there doing nothing. See the attached image below. What is circled in RED is what does NOT work. Mostly I have to open the link bar and type in the facebook address to load it. Why is this?

I've had this problem since Firefox V.17.0. it bugs having to open the link bar just to have to go to my newsfeed. Mobile site sucks :p

Quicktime Does Not Work...Striped yellow/black bar or Q with ?

Hi, I have read the previous posts about similar problems with quicktime but the posted fixes have not resolved my issue. I have three computers. Quicktime quit working on two of them. Before upgrading to the latest version, I got the yellow/black striped bar when quicktime tried to open. Now I get the Q with the ?. I've checked my settings and even reselected the "default" settings several times but to no avail. As to the "system preferences and deselecting quicktime with flash" input, I have been unable to locate this setting (at least as described). I have upgraded my flash as well. All three computers supposedly have the same settings.
Sometimes I receive a popup indicating additional quicktime software/plugins are required to run the media and asking if I want to get the necessary files. When I click, "yes," it takes me to the quicktime plugin page, but does not tell me what is needed.
How do I fix this problem? Here is the link to the site in question today: http://www.news.com.au/perthnow/index/1,21581,5015022,00.html

The site posted is using Adobe Flash Player 9. The QT version on the computer only supports version's of Macromedia Flash Player 5. Open the QT control panel, go to Browser tab, Mime Settings, and uncheck Flash media, listed under Misc.Misc. file formats. Or refer too:http://kb.mozillazine.org/Quicktime
Or update QT to 7.3.1.70

"Set the Desktop Picture" command does not work in certain instances

I've decided to take a try at using automator. Anyways I've created a very simple workflow.
Get Specified Finder Items (points to an image file)
Set the Desktop Picture
Now this usually works when the desktop is set statically to a specified image. But when I set the desktop to change the picture periodically, the automator action fails to change the picture to the specified image, when executed.
Is this a bug? Is there any workaround for this?

Your workflow actually is changing the static desktop picture, it's merely failing to then switch off the "Change picture" feature.
The "Change picture" feature has a somewhat misleading name in that it's not actually changing your static desktop picture at all. Your static desktop picture remains in place as a new dynamic picture layer is continually drawn and redrawn directly on top of it.
I don't see any way of testing for or turning off the desktop slideshow automatically, short of writing a GUI AppleScript that opens System Preferences and clicks through to the relevant toggle setting. If you file feedback with Apple they might take a look at it.

Home link in upper left corner of Desktop Facebook site does NOT work. Will not go to Newsfeed

Pressing the "Facebook" logo in top left corner will not work most of the time. The newsfeed does work..but let me explain this a little better. Say, I'm on a friends facebook page using the full site...I want to go to my newsfeed so I click the "Facebook" logo in the left hand corner next to the notification icons....poof....nothing happens, except, I notice the little padlock on the left side of the address bar disappear. I can let it sit and it will never do anything. If I press the facebook logo about 15 times, then it will finally load the newsfeed. It seems like some kind of issue going from secured to unsecured pages. It does not do this when I am in one of my groups though...odd. I have always had to use the addeess bar to go back to the newsfeed . This problem has existed through many versions of Firefox. No other browser does this.

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
The Firefox cache temporarily stores images, scripts, and other parts of websites while you are browsing. <br>
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies, do the following:
#Tap the menu icon located at the top right corner. This is the icon with 3 bars. On older Android devices you'll have to press the hardware menu key and then tap More.
#Tap '''Settings'''.
#After that, you will be taken to the settings screen. In the settings screen, look under the section '''''Privacy & Security''''' and select '''Clear private data'''.
#You will then be taken to a list of what can be cleared. Select the following 2 for deletion:
#*Cookies & active logins
#*Cache
#After those have been selected, tap the '''Clear data''' button to actually clear the cache and cookies.

Quicktime does not work in firefox 24 in windows 8 desktop mode

I am running Firefox 24 on Windows 8 Pro 64-bit in desktop mode. I have QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.4 installed. But when I try to go http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/ and play trailers all I get is black box and nothing is playing. No prompting to authorize a plugin, no error message, nothing. I tried to see if it will work with other browsers, so I tried Google Chrome. I went to the website, got prompted to authorize the plugin and then was able to play trailers without any problems. The page won't even render correctly under IE. So, it makes me conclude that it is a browser problem. Can you help me please? Thanks.

Is his in a normal tab or in a private tab?
Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

QuickTime does not work

I have QuickTime 7.4.1 running on my G3 OS Panther and on my iMac OS Tiger.
Whenever it plays a movie on the Ge all I get is the sound and no picture.
On my iMac OS Tiger it runs ok.
I once installed Flip for Mac but deleted it. I searched for Flip for mac on my G3 and could not find any references to it except for some:
flip.jpg, flipbtn.gif, Flippers.tif.
Thanks for any advice.

Hi Frank,
Try going to your HD/Library Folder/Internet Plugins and see if you have a QuickTime Plugin.webplugin folder there. If so, move this folder to the desktop. Try playing a QuickTime movie again and see if the video plays now. If not you can move this folder back to the Internet Plugins folder.
For future reference, questions concerning QuickTime can be placed in the QuickTime for Mac OS where there are many knowledgable users of the application there.
post back with any results,

Quicktime does not work with iphoto

Quicktime no longer opens when I click on a movie in iPhoto... Anyone know why?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
I can mount it as another drive and export it or use a flash card reader
IMO that's a preferable method of getting photos off your camera and into iPhoto. It prevents the possibility of an interrupted import from the camera to iPhoto due to low battery, loose cable, etc. which can and usually will damage the library. I prefer a card reader so that I can rename the photos on the desktop before importing into iPhoto. The camera's naming scheme, IMG_XXX.JPG just doesn't give much info about the content. I add the date (in the international date format) with a brief description: 2010-03-12-Grandparents Day-001.JPG, -002.JPG, etc. I use R-Name to sequentially batch rename the files.
Other workflow possibilities are discussed in The DAM Forum, digital asset management.
Just some food for thought.

Quicktime Does Not Work On Second Life

Hi There,
I am a Second life user. I love playing Second Life but there is one drawback. I can't watch Second Life TV.( You can watch Second Life TV at Rarity Design or RaMiRo Design if you play Second Life. Just use the search!) I am usually at Rarity Design but whenever I turn the TV on, I get a Quicktime 7 loading screen. I use Snow Leopard. I installed Quicktime 7, and I searched for updates, but no resolution. When I go to RaMiRo Design and try to watch TV, I get a plain blue screen. If anyone can help please let me know.
Thanks

Found a solution thanks to Lead3 in the Windows forum, I was not downloading the latest version due to my browser or browser search. :OP
