Some videos run, others dont

I have tried everything i know (re-install flip for Mac, etc) but ever since i upgraded to 3.x i'm having problems viewing videos.
some are fine, others arent.
http://www.flocasts.org/flotrack/speakers.php?sid=70&vid=6799
this one stops about 8 seconds in and wont go any farther
while this one from the same sight plays with no problems
http://www.flocasts.org/flotrack/flotrackr/videos.php?a=video_show&show=&vid=922 2
any suggestions

Both work fine for me. They are flash videos. I am not running Leopard, but:
These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5)
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2 and then the latest version obtained from here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash and installed.
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.)
In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11 or Leopard, that you have downloaded and installed the correct version for your Mac of Security Update 2007-009, which also deals with the Quicktime/Flash issues you may have experienced, such as the '?'. What happened was that both Quicktime as well as Adobe FlashPlayer tried to play the Flash video at the same time. This no longer happens. (N.B. Security Update 2007-009 requires both a restart and a permission repair.)
See also the very informative post from QuickTimeKirk dated Dec 3, 2007 in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1268489&tstart=0
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

Problems with integrated video files, some videos working, others not

Hello,
I have pdf files where video clips are integrated. Most of them are in the AVI container format with FFODIVX codec and without audio. These can be played within the pdf file.
I tried to convert the video clips that are not working to the same format and also to many different other codecs and combinations of codecs. But it didn't help. Some clips are just not working. Are there any additional limitations that I have to consider. Or does anybody has an idea, what the problem could be?
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Daniel N

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
~/Library/Input Methods/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

Just want to replace some video with photos, but LEAVE AUDIO THERE. No way?

Is there no simple way to just replace some video with other video or photos, but not affect audio? I have an interview, and they're talking about places, and I want to put in photos of the places. Pretty basic stuff.
Thanks for whatever help...

OK, yeah, CUTAWAY. But, I have the audio "purpled". Should it be? And my photo is sitting ABOVE the place where I want it. How do I get it to go down where it's supposed to? I really need a step-by-step here. I see how to manage the duration of the cutaway, but I don't see how to actually get it INTO the track, and how to "un-purple" the audio track.
Thank you!

You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video. Have done this it plays some videos on YouTube and majority it gives me this message Using XP

Have uninstalled the Flash Player and reinstalled, it will play some videos but others and when I bring up the YouTube home page it still gives me this error. Help !!!

ITunes will play some videos, but not others?

Hello,
I use my MacBook Pro at home with Apple TV to home share videos and music. I have also recently upgraded to mavericks.
When I play videos on my tv at home they work fine, but I am traveling and now videos will not play. They just show 0:00 with a pause button instead of a play button. Some videos do work, but only a handful.
Would this be due to the mavericks upgrade? Should I re-install iTunes?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi gta,
Ok.. let's try this. Launch Disk Utility, it's in your Applications/Utilities folder. Select MacintoshHD 10.x.x in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit Disk Utility when it's finished.
Get Onyx. It's a free disk utility. Run the Maintenance and Cleaning Scripts once a week. It's available here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/systemdiskutilities/onyx.html
If none of the above works, delete these files:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkConfig.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.NetworkDiagnostics.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.NetworkUtility.plist
Note -- the com.apple.network.Config.plist is not located in your home folder --
Drag those files to the Trash, empty the Trash and reboot. You will have to reset your network preferences.

I cannot view some videos and participate in some websites since Adobe upgraded all to Flash 11.7. I have an older Mac G5 PowerPC (no Intel chip) running OS 10.5.8. I keep getting splash screens saying I have to update to Flash 11.7 but 11.7 is made for those Macs with an Intel chip. I am running the newest Flash for my system. It seems all concerned should have made Flash retro-compatible for those of us with older Macs. Is there a work around to this Flash requirement short of buying a new Mac with the Intel chip?

I'll bet you'll have better luck if you post your question in the Power Mac discussions here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/desktop_computers/power_mac
Either that, or one of the forums at Adobe.
Good luck.

Why do some videos play fine on Facebook while others have only audio with a green screen?

Why do some videos play fine on Facebook while others have only audio with a green screen?

Hi,
Green screens are almost always indicative of a video driver issue. Could you please post the contents of your "Display Devices" section after generating a DXDiag report?
What is a Dxdiag report and how do I run one?
I suspect you might have an out of date video driver. This FAQ can help you learn the steps required to update:
Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?
Finally, if the driver update does not help, try disabling hardware acceleration using the steps outlined here:

PPro CC, some video frames do not run smoothly

Hi there,
why should someone tell you what to do? You already posted the resolution (maybe without knowing it)
> Wenn I install windows clean again and then play this video then he wil work properly, after i install word,exel,my printer,virusdriver and so on, then the video will not work anymore smootly.
So, if you install applications, then usually the system performances drops, due to freshly installed services, tools in the systemtray or background applications which all is coming with that stuff
(word,exel,my printer,virusdriver) you mentioned.
So in my honest opinion, I suggest you reinstalling your system, and then do the following:
install at first ONE application (e.g. office) and try to play your video. Should the video run smoothly then continue installing the next software (like anti-virus) and check it again.
If the video runs smoothly after every new installed software, continue installing the next one.
But if you recognize, that the video begins running with stuttering and slower speed, then the last application youve installed is the software which uses too much system resources.
If you find out which application causes the video running not so smoothly, then try to find an alternative software which does not need so much system-power from your computer.

I have a an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes. All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem.

I have an iMac 27" and am trying to import some videos of a friends wedding into iMovie however one of the movies won't import. It doesn't say why or give any error message or codes.
All of the other movies on the card download with out a problem. The movie in question is not 'corrupt' as you can watch it in iMovie direct from the SD card but as soon as you try to import it, it just says 'error'. iIve tried moving the file to an external drive ( and other variations on this theme) then importing but have had no luck.
Can anyone please help me.

The mystery remains....
Thanks for the pointers. The file type is .mts (a proprietry sony one).
I have now found some video converter software (Wondershare and iSkysoft) at a cost. Either will convert this file for me into .mp4. This I can then import into iMovie without any problems. I've checked this on the trial versions and it worked well but without paying am left with a giant watermark in the video
The mystery (which I still havent solved) is why did 20 other .mts files import fine and then this one not?
If you could point me in the direction of some free .mts converter software that would be the cherry on the cake.
Thanks

I have a macbook pro running snow leopard. Just recently I cannot view youtube videos and other online videos. I recently updated my flashplayer plugin and I believe that is the problem. Is the latest flashplayer plugin compatible with 10.6.8?

I have a macbook pro running snow leopard. Just recently I cannot view youtube videos and other online videos. I recently updated my flashplayer plugin and I believe that is the problem. Is the latest flashplayer plugin compatible with 10.6.8? If this is so, I need to find an older flash player plugin to reinstall. I do not want to upgrade from 10.6.8 at this time because I have 18 yrs. worth of financial records on Quicken that I have read will not work with Lion and I've read bad things about running music programs on Maverick.

1) Quicken 2007 for Intel (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mt. Lion and Mavericks) is a full featured app that can be downloaded from Intuit for $15 and will work with your data file if you are using Quicken 2005, 2006 or 2007 (if you version is earlier, let me know for more instructions on easy conversion):
http://quicken.intuit.com/personal-finance-software/quicken-2007-osx-lion.jsp
2) Partition your hard drive, or add an external hard drive and install Mavericks there and "dual-boot" to operate your music programs in Snow Leopard and experiment with them in Mavericks.
DO NOT install Mavericks over Snow Leopard!

I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

You can't upload from the video app, has to be in your camera roll.

Why does my computer lock up when some videos start to run?

When I load some videos the video will start for a few seconds then stop. At this point my whole computer locks up and I have to do a restart to get my mail or on the internet.
I have right clicked on the video and disabled the acceleration function. That worked for a while but the problem has started again. When I right click the video it shows that the accelerator is NOT enabled but my computer locks up. Thanks for any help, Hosteen - Nez
