HT3775 I'm trying to play a supported file type AVI on Quick Time Player but it won't play on my iMac v10.6.8. Why?

I'm trying to play a supported file type AVI on Quick Time Player but it won't play on my iMac v 10.6.8.
Why?

I've just downloaded VLC player and it works like a dream. Forget the rest!

HT204382 Quick time Player can't open because a required codec isn't available. The DVD I am trying to play was made on an IPAD. My Imac came with a IMac Application install DVD, A IMac Mac OS X Install DVD, & iWork, I don't think I have iLife

Quick time Player can't open because a required codec isn't available. The DVD I am trying to play was made on an IPAD. My Imac came with a IMac Application install DVD, A IMac Mac OS X Install DVD, & iWork, I don't think I have iLife What additional software do I need?

Perian 1.2.3 *should* work for both QuickTime & and QTX in Mountain Lion. Regardless of the filetype container, whether it is a Matroska (.mkv) or a .mov. As to the actual encoding of the file (h264, .mp2, whatever..) I have found most play, even older formats.
Even though it's no longer supported and is a dead project, it works just fine. It will load as a System Preference file and adds to the Other category in them.
I think in 10.8 you've still got support for QTX so it may work with that. (in Mavericks, it only works for QT7)
If not, just run QuickTime 7.6.6.

If no luck there, you could also try VLC at http://www.videolan.org

HT1583 After the Burn, I tried to play the DVD on my iMac, but will not recognized the DVD. It worked on my DVD player connected to my TV. First time it happened. ok.

After completing the Burn process, I tried to play the same DVD to the same computer, but did not recognized the DVD media. It worked ok on the DVD player connected to my TV. I've been burning DVD for a quite a awhile, this is the first time it happened.

Hi
This usually depends on
• BURN SPEED - not set down to x2 or max x4 - BEST IS N OT BEST - it gives max burn errors = BAD DVD
• Brand of DVD used - MeMorex, NoName etc are known problem makers - I only use Verbatim
• Type of DVD used - DVD+/-RW and DVD+R and DL-DVDs - can give a variety of problems - I only use SL-DVD-R
• Low free space on the Start-Up (Macintosh HD) Hard Disk - also gives bad result
- interlaced SD-Material (as on old CRT-TV (tube)) - I never go less than 25Gb
- HD-material - then 4 - 5 times more seems to be a good safe minimum.

Trying to play movie thru mini DVI port - display keeps switching back to desktop(?)

I'm not able to play a movie continously to my TV through the dvi port (via hdmi cable) using display mirroring. Picture shows up OK, but after the movie runs a very short time attention shifts back to the iTunes control screen. I've successfully mirrored the display on a TV before, but not tried to play a movie until now. After messing with all the perturbations for a couple of hours, now I can't even get the picture to show up, though everything appears to be acting the same as it was. The movie plays fine on the computer w/o mirroring. I've also tried copying the movie onto my iPad and running the movie from it, but get a message that it's not legal to do so (movie bought via iTunes downloaded onto the iMac (2008; 20-inch; 2.4GHz).

Drag applications from your main desktop off the right side of the screen and they will appear on the TV. This is the extended desktop mode.

I have home videos from a Sony DCR-HC20 and am trying to get them onto my IMac in itunes or imovie and I have it plugged in with a USB and don't know where it is or what to do next.

Hello, not certain, but turn the Camera onto Play if it has such a setting, does it show up in iMovie then?

Transitioned from an older G5 Pro to a new iMac. My Final Cut files are on a 2T WD external HD. When I try to boot I get a "General Error 41" and files do not load. Took the WD to the Apple Store and tried it on one of their iMacs...it works OK. Ideas?

Transitioning from an older G5 Pro to a new iMac. My Final Cut Express files are on a 2T WD external HD. When I try to load a project to the iMac I get a "General Error 41" and the files do not load. Took the WD the Apple Store and tried it on one of their iMacs...it works fine. The problem seems to be in my new iMac, other WD's with different files load OK. Any ideas?

Hi
Can it be so that You try to boot a G5 (Power) Mac from one external hard disk - then try to boot an INTEL Mac from same external Mac.
WILL NOT WORK - It's not just the Mac OS Extended formation that plays a part here - they have to be formatted differently to be bootable on each system.
I don't think there is any solution to this AT ALL.
When You format a hard disk.
• Select Partitions
• Under the graphic representation to the left there is an Alternative button
Here You select if it's supposed to be Bootable on a Power CPU or INTEL-CPU
No other possibilities.

HT2499 I I'm trying to play a movie on my Mac but it doesn't play it. What is wrong?

I I'm trying to play a movie on my iMac but it doesn't play it. What is wrong?

Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac. Tell us your Mac OS X version. It is not running an iOS version.
By playing a movie, are you talking a commercial DVD movie with Apple's DVD player software?
If it is, was it purchased in the same country as the Mac?

Front Row Crashing when Trying tpo play video

I just picked up m new iMac 20" and have been trying to play my videos on Front row.
I have tried every category - they are all authorized - but still, before even a second of video play s - Frontrow crashes. Please help!

There are several steps. Note that this is invading your main System folder which can be dangerous. You should have a complete backup of all your files before poking around like this!
1. Delete Front Row (and Front Row only) from this path by dragging it to the Trash:
/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app
Then empty your Trash.
2. Delete the records that indicate Front Row has already been installed by deleting the receipts. If you've installed the 1.3 update, there will be two files to delete in this path:
/Library/Receipts/FrontRow.pkg
/Library/Receipts/FrontRowUpdate1.3.pkg
Drag both of those files to the Trash and empty it.
3. Put in your Mac OS X install DVD (you don't have to boot from it) and run the "Install Bundled Software Only" installer. At the "Install Type" window, there should be a "customize" button. Click on that and uncheck every other option besides Front Row. The continue and finish installing Front Row only.
4. Run the Software Update and your computer should recognize you need the Front Row 1.3 update. Install the update. Now might be a good time to restart.
That should completely replace Front Row and update it to the current version (which is needed if you're using the up-to-date version of iTunes and QuickTime).

When trying to play videos I get the message "requested URL is not supported on this network" how do I fix this?

I receive the error "requested URL is not supported on this network" when trying to play videos on my iPhone. Can you please advise how to fix this problem?

Hi,
You will need to re-instal iCal as an optional install from your OSX installer DVDs. Then run the Mac OS X 10.5.8 Combo Update.
Best wishes

I am trying to play a DVD on my MacBook Pro and transmit it to my TV (use my TV as the monitor) utilizing a VGA cable and adapter for the Mac but the only image that shows up on the TV is the MacBook wall paper, any ideas on how I can transmit to my TV?

I also tried an HDMI cable and had the same issue.

I am trying to connect my Macbook pro 2010 to my Samsung HDTV using a mini display port to hdtv cable. Trying to play a slide show in IPhoto but I only get sound with no picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it. Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there. The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple. They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one. From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate. And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one. Try a new one. Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

Trying to play a song on my iPhone and it plays a different song

Using iTunes on my iPhone 4S - when trying to play a specific song it jumps to another song and wont play the one I want. This happens with songs from iCloud and even songs that i purchased directly from iTunes on my phone.
anyone else have this problem and find a solution?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic tune (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

I am trying to play cafe world and the screen is cut off so i can not play

Please do the following:
* Update to Firefox 29 [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
* [[Remove recent browsing, search and download history]]
Also, I strongly suggest updating to Windows 8.1 update 1 as plain old windows 8 is no longer secure or stable.

Install more RAM in the computer; the Mac needs to have at least 2GB of RAM and should have 4GB or more first.
