Safari 6.0.1 will not play QuickTime Files

I am having problems with Safari 6.0.1 playing back QuickTime Files. I reset safari and cookies and it will still not play QuickTime movies. To the best of my knowledge, QuickTime is working with all other components of the computer.
Is there a way to redownload Safari or repair it...
I could not find a place on Apple's webpage to redownload it.
I am using Mac OS 10.7.5 on a MacPro (2008).
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extension tab.
If there are any installed, turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari.
There are several extensions such as DivX that can prevent QT content from streaming.

Safari 3.1.2 will not play iweb slideshows

Hi All
I have never done this, so I hope I ask the right question.
Safari on my G5 will not play any slideshows, made with iWeb. And this is not a problem only with my websites, but from others too! I have two pc's at home as well and I have checked in different places. The slideshows are playing OK on those machines. I have been trying to get this resolved for weeks now, trying to find answers on forums, but haven't found any. And 'yes' I have turned plugins etc, on in the prefs. Hope someone can help.

Hi Toni, and a warm welcome to the forums!
In the Safari Menu, Empty Caches, quit Safari, then Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.

DVD Player plays DVDs but will not play VIDEO_TS files from my hard drive

When logged into my home account DVD Player plays DVDs but will not play VIDEO_TS files that are on my hard drive. I get an error message: "there was a problem opening the media. Media type is not supported." When logged in as "root" DVD player does play these same files. Also, when logged in to my home account, I can play these same files in VLC.

Go this this thread for more details:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1075814
But the gist of the fix is to delete or rename "~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist" and let the DVD Player build a new one. It seems that this is caused by a migrated PPC preference that borks DVD Player 5 on Intel Macs, which is what just happened to me. Hope this helps.

Itunes 6.0.5 will not play ANY files

Hi. I just upgraded to version 6.0.5 and itunes will not play any of the files in my library. No error message or file location error is diplayed when I try to play a file. The song title is displyed in the main window, but the file does not progress.
I tried to troubleshoot it myself with apple support, but only found some information about checking the compatilibity mode settings --that was not the problem.
Anyone else experience this? I'd really appreciate any suggestions or information on how I can solve this problem. Thanks a bunch!

is the little diamond-shaped thingy staying firmly stuck to the left, raisingirl?
if so, let's try a careful standalone QT 7.1 reinstall.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes play music properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

Itunes on W8 will not play any files after upgrade to 11.0.4.4

After following the prompt and updating Itunes on Windows 8 to version 11.0.4.4 on 6 June, Itunes no longer plays any audio or video files from my library. Pick a file and Itunes shows that it is playing (Pause button only) however nothing happens. The file simply does not play. Windows Media Player will not open any files. VLC will play flash video files but with no sound. Video played in IE10 seems to play ok including sound. Anyone have any suggestions. I can uninstall but figure I'll get teh same version when I re-install. Everything worked fine prior to installing this upgrade.

Resolved by running W8 System Restore to a point prior to the last Itunes update. Now back on the previous version of Itunes. Windows Media Player working correctly with all file types. Itunes working correctly also. I'm quite happy not to re-apply any updates from Apple for a while.

Help, will not play hdv file?

I have a movie I shot and edited when I was at university using Final cut pro and HDV cams.
I need to show this movie on my macbook pro, but I purchased final cut express, and have just found out my Quicktime does not play this file.. the screen is just black?
I assume I need a HDV 1080i50 codec for quicktime??? is this correct?
Where can I get it?
I intend to give a presentation was going to use OpenOffice or use my Quicktime just for moving image
Any suggestions?
Regards

Without FCP installed, you need a decoder. Calibrated has you covered:

Muse site will not play mp3 files on iOS devices

I'm testing my new/first site using Muse CC 2014 and finding that audio files (MP3) will not play on iOS 7.x devices.I am using the MP3 Player plug-in from Musethemes.com. They have yet to respond to my support request 3 days ago so I am hoping someone here might have encountered the same issue. What alternatives would you suggest?

Never mind everyone. Musethemes got back to me. The issue is the link for each MP3 file points to assets/filename.mp3 in the desktop version but since the tablet and phone versions have their own sub-directories the link needs to properly point to the parent directory where the assets folder is located i.e. ../assets/filename.mp3. On to the next adventure.

Quicktime will not play .mov files since Lion installation

When using Quicktime 10.6, I am receiving the error message "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." when attempting to open .mov files. Prior to installing OS X Lion, there were no issues with playing .mov files.

I'm having the same problem. Using a clean install of Mac OS X (10.7) Lion and QuickTime 10.1.
If I go to finder:
I can click on Icon's Play arrow and the Movie will play in the icon.
I can click on the file icon and press the spacebar and the file will play in QuickLook.
If I doubleclick on the icon to open the file in QuickTime, I get the "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." message.
If I right click on the icon and click open with... QuickTime, I get the "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." message.

Quicktime 7.2 will not play Quicktime Movies

Ironic isn't it.
I recently purchased Sony's Movie Studio and it required a new(er) verson of Quicktime to import QT movies. So I download 7.2 ( i had 7.01, if I remember correctly) and installed it. I can now import QT into Vegas for editing. Fine. Great.
BUT, and here is the ironic part, Quicktime will no longer play Quicktime movies! Not .mov, .mp4, nothing. Zip. Zilch. But it will play some old avi files for some reason. All I get is the audio and flashing striped colors. Until 7.2 I could load any .mov, avi, mp4 file and edit them without a problem. (I forgot to mention, I had QT Pro) I was also using Any Video Converter to convert old home movies I'd burned to dvd to the mp4 format, and Quicktime worked flawlessly to open them too. Up until this "update" I've been very happy with the performance of Quicktime.
Now, nothing but frustation and the online Support hasn't pointed to a solution. And yes, I have updated my Dell PC running XP to all the latest service packs.
Any ideas? If I delete 7.2 I could probably re-install a version of 6 Pro that always worked, but then Vegas Movie Studio won't work. Kind of a Catch-22. Thank you for any help.

It has helped some who have had this problem. Try dragging the QuickTime webplugin folder to the desktop in case you need to put it back and see.

SAFARI: NFL Network Videos Will Not Play

Is there a way to get videos from the NFL Network to play? I don't know what type of video they use, but this site, and a few others that I go to just will not let me use Safari to view the movies. I updated Flash to the newest version, still no luck.
NFL Videos Link: http://www.nfl.com/videos
BTW, if I open up Firefox, and go to the same sites, the video plays just fine.

Those videos play fine for me (just mentioning that to show that they can work!).
It might be wroth your while deleting flash and reinstalling it.
The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
Note that Adobe requires you to uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

Safari on iPod Touch will not play WAV voicemails

Our campus voicemail system is accessible through a web browser and plays back its audio in WAV format (using the GSM6.10 codec). If I use Safari or Firefox on OS X it plays the voicemail, but when I use Safari on the iPod Touch it tells me that it "cannot play movie: Movie could not be played."
Wouldn't it make more sense for a mobile platform to support as many of the .WAV codecs as possible, especially if the desktop OS already does?

I worked with another person a week or so ago and the issue is the limited mobile Safari version support for playback.
However, the touch MAIL program has no problems playing WAV files.
What I suggested the OP do was set up a Gmail account and set their touch up to download that Gmail account. They then forwarded the email with voice mail to their Gmail account and were able to play it back.

Re: Itunes will not play OGG files.

I am not being combative. I asked a simple question and got a stuck up answer. The I should have got back is apple does not feel like making Itunes play OGG files. It is more of a management descion then anything else.

Hi Mac Dudes,
I am not running Mac, but have the same problem. I have managed to get my music back by doing the following, hope this helps someone else (from my post in the windows section):
To cut a long story short...
Installed iTunes 7 over my existing 6.0.5 setup. Disaster.
No audio, Audio card now seemed to have been disabled by iTunes 7 install (SoundBlaster Audigy).
Rebooted and sound back but all audio played from iTunes 7 was distorted and impossible to listen to. Audio from Windows Media Player was fine.
Uninstalled Quicktime and iTunes 7. Downloaded iTunes 6.0.5 from Apple.
(Windows) http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes605forwindows.html
or
(Macintosh) http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/itunes605.html
On launching iTunes 6.0.5 I received the following error: Cannot read iTunes Library.itl as created by newer version of iTunes (or something to that effect).
Opened up my iTunes folder which I have on a separate partition and located the folder "Previous iTunes Libraries". I backed up the present .itl file into this folder (called it iTunes 7 fookup for reference) and then copied the latest .itl backup (which was iTunes Library 2006-09-13, yours may have a different date), back into the iTunes folder and renamed it to "iTunes Library.itl"
Launched iTunes 6.0.5 and my old version of iTunes is now back to its former glory and my music (thank god) is now playing as before.
<Rant Alert>Thanks for nothing Apple, that's 5 hours of my life I will never get back. As for iTunes 7, you can stick it where the sun doesn't shine.
