TS3772 How can I play my movie? It's asking me to download quicktime and I already did... twice

 

Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
Quit iTunes first.
In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
If you have a 32-bit Windows, open the "Program files" folder.
If you have a 64-bit Windows, open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
Open the "iTunes" folder.
Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
Can you play the movie without the QuickTime message now?

    Quicktime pro doesn't do it.Generally speaking, no -- not without third-party components.
    If there's some kind of patch or something, please give me the url/link!Try Perian (free). It contains a collection of popular PC codecs which may or may not support the specific files you want. If not, you have to determine what particular codec is required, find out if it is available, and then download/install it. (Not all AVI audio/video file formats have been ported for Mac use.) Even then, if it is a proprietary codec and you want to be able to convert to/from that format, you may have to purchase/register the component.

  • How can I play multiple movies on quicktime like a list format

    ok one more time How can I play multiple movies on quicktime. When i click on open file it will only let me choose one movie to play.For example When ever I used windows media player I could drag my mouse over numerous files and it would play them one after another like in a list format. Can anyone help with this?
    Thank you

    I would like an answer on this also. It gets to be a hassle to play multiple files when playing on the television.

    Hi Brennan,
    Only HDMI is going to support audio & video on the single cable. Which MacBook Air do you have? Here's a great article regarding this - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241. Also keep in mind that only the current generation of MacBook Airs support this. The previous generation, also with MiniDisplay Port would support HDMI but you'd need to run a separate line from the headphone port over AUX for audio.
    The first and second generation models, which have micro-DVI, do not support audio. Regarding the RCA cables, Apple offers adapters that allow you to go to VGA and that would probably be your best bet. I do not believe there's a MiniDisplay Port to RCA solution out there, you'd need to do multiple adapters and that's always a questionable performance solution.

    How can I stop my iphone 4s from asking for my icloud, yahoo and other passwords all the time?

    As long as you share that AppleID for iCloud, you cannot.  You are sharing a a single iCloud account and sync services.  The only thing you can do is get a second AppleID and use it with iCloud - you do not have to use that new AppleID for anything but iCloud (ie. you can still share an AppleID for iTunes and App store purchases).
    P.S. I am assuming you both want to sync your contacts with iCloud?

  • How can I play HD movies on iTunes on my windows 7 desktop?

    My monitor is a Samsung SyncMaster2494 and my video card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti.  I have no issues running webpages, video games, etc. in HD, however I receive an error whenever I attempt to watch a movie on iTunes in HD.  The message reads - To play 'The Movie' in HD, you must have a computer with a built-in display or have it connected to a display that supports HDCP.
    Any ideas on how to correct this?  Do I need iTunes to detect my hardware? (my computer has an on-board graphics card that is not HD compatible, I had upgraded to the 550.

  • How can I play a movie in iTunes mini player?  (Progress bar button broken?)

    It took forever to figure out how to get iTunes to even OPEN a new window for movie playback, but once I finally found instructions (click the button with movie art to the left of the progress bar to open in new window) they only partially worked.  A new window opens, but movie playback continues in the main window.  The new window shows a freeze frame of the scene displayed at the moment I clicked the progress bar button.  The new window looks just like the mini player, and its control buttons work, but they effect the main window's movie playback not the new window/mini player where I want to watch the movie.
    Is it my progress bar that's broken?  I'm all updated with iTunes version 11.1.5.  Does this version not play well with my OS X 10.6.8?
    Ultimately I just want to be able to play a movie in the mini player while using other applications; surely that's possible.
    [Also, on the "Operating System" dropdown menu below, I just selected OS X 10.6.8 and then the dropdown showed "No operating system selected" and the selection arrows no longer work.  Any ideas what happened?  My MacBook Old feels so janky right now.]

    You need to convert the AVI file to MP4.  Here is just one of the many converters available (via Google) http://www.divx.com/en/software/divx-plus/oca/mp4-converter?gclid=CJnqnpaF37gCFc fJtAod8RUAeg

  • How can i play the movie i rented on my MacBook (it's downloading now) on my 3rd generation Apple TV? I cannot find it.

    I just rented an SD version of a movie using iTunes on my MacBook Pro because there was no SD option available on my 3rd generation ATV (and I had to update my CC anyway). The movie is downloading now and if I wanted to, I could watch it as it downloads on my computer. But I would prefer to watch it right now on my ATV. However, I cannot find it anywhere. I have looked in "movies" (there is nothing about rented movies and nothing under purchased) and "computers" (which shows only music, tv shows, or podcasts in my library). ATV help says the rented movie will be in the top shelf of the main menu, but it does not say under which tab: movies or computers. At this point, it is under neither.

    I believe I've answered my questions, thanks to some discussions I found here.
    1. Although I can watch the movie I rented immediately on my MacBook Pro, I must wait (maybe an hour or more) before I can watch it on my Apple TV. I have no idea why that's the case and it's unfortunate, but apparently that's why I cannot find the rental on my Apple TV.
    2. The rental will (apparently) eventually show up in the top shelf, not under "Movies," but under "Computers," where a category called "Rentals" will magically appear (it currently does not exist).
    Comment: neither of these facts is particularly obvious or intuitive. Apple's FAQ should spell this out.

  • How can I play an mpeg-2 file from my handycam on quicktime?

    When I try to play an mpeg-2 file from my handycam I receive an error message stating that a required codec is not available.  How can I get this codec and is it a free download?  Neither audio or video will play.

    Thanks for your input.  To clarify a couple of things, I'm ultimately looking at editing my video from the handycam, hopefully with imovie.  In exploring how to do this I came across mpeg streamclip video converter for osx but then discovered that in order to install it with Lion, I'd need to download a mpeg-2 playback component.  From what I understand, this component is inherent in QT 10.1 with Lion and therefor you can't brink up a 'disk image' in order to install the video converter.  Sounds like I'd need to buy that.
    As previously mentioned, there are three forms of QT support for MPEG-2 content:
    1) The QT MPEG-2 Playback Component ($19.99) is required for use by QT 7 based applications (QT 7 Player, GarageBand, as well as, QT 7 based third-party applications like MPEG Streamclips. This component is not used required for nor used by the QT 10.1 Player or iMovie '07/'08/'11 apps.
    2) The Importer Component installed as part of your video editing software package. As previously indicated, this package handles the importation of content from various camcorders employing many different compression formats. It's primary purpose is to make the imported content "edit" compatible with the video editing software. In the case of "muxed" GOP MPEG-2/AC3 content, it decompresses/turns the P- and B-frames into I-frames which essentially makes the video QT editit compatible at the frame level without actually converting the video to a different compression format. This is a moderately fast operation which does not degrade the video quality. In addition, the importer component also converts the AC3 audio to QT "edit" compatible AIFF (Linear PCM) content and places both the video and audio content in an MOV file container. Since "muxed" GOP MPEG-2 content essentially synchronizes the audio and video content spatially, the last step in the import process is to add a time offset to minimize audio/video drift in the MOV file which synchronizes the multiple data tracks temporally with respect to an external timing reference. The result of this operation is QT edit compatible content in an MOV file container that is playback on any system having iMovie '07/'08/'11 installed. That is why I always recommend using this work flow for content still located on the camcorder.
    3) The QT 10.1 MPEG-2/AC3 GOP support appears to be built into the app or only accessible using the app and not available for use by either QT 7 or iMovie applications. This content is not QT edit compatible at the frame level (i.e., the manner in which all Apple video editors work).
    4) In the case where the "muxed" MPEG-2/AC3 content has already been removed from the camcoder and you can no longer "import" the content as per option 2 above, purchase of the QT MPEG-2 Playback component and use of the MPEG Streamclip app provides, in my opinion, the greatest degree of secondary functionality. In this case you have the option of demultiplexing the original content to M2V and AC3 content or paired M2V and AIFF elementary stream files or conversion of the content to any QT editit compatible audio and video compression combination including "Pro" editing codecs if FCP is installed on your system.
    5) With regard to the installation of the QT MPEG-2 Playback component, you have three options:
    a) You can install the component on a pre-Lion system and then copy it to your Lion system.
    b) You can download the MPEG Streamclip "beta" package and us the "helper" software to install the component directly on the Lion operating system.
    c) You can us an app like Pacifist to extract/install the component directly to the Lion OS platform.
    In any event, remember that this component is not supported by the QT 10.1 app nor is AC3 natively supported by the QT 7 app and so you will have to use the MPEG Streamclip app to both make use of this component and provide app support of the AC3 audio which can then be "bridged" for use by QT 7 based apps.
    All this being said, when I decided for the first time to just open my video in QT 10.1 (which is a .mpg file) it wouldn't open and the error said that a required codec wasn't available.  The file is .mpg and info states it is a mpeg-2 video, AC3.  I have VLC installed and can view the video with that, but am just frustrated as to why QT 10.1 won't play it (as I believe it should, since the file is a .mpg).
    As I have repeatedly stated, I consider QT 10.1 "a work in progress" and have given up trying to guess why it works in some cases and not in others. In some cases, files sent to me having the problem you describe suddenly became playable in QT 10.1 after using VLC to copy the data from the original file container to a new program stream file container (i.e., not conversion was applied—just the copy of the original data). You can try this for playback purposes but it will do nothing for your editing work flow unless you plan to us QT 10.1 to convert the content to H.264/AAC for editing in which case HandBrake or MPEG Streamclip (with QT MPEG-2 Playback component) would probabaly work on the original file. (I.e., I prefer using a low-compression, high data rate compression format at highest video quality setting as an "intermediate" editing format to preserve as much of the original quality as possible.)
    One thing I also noticed, there is no QT file in my library (I didn't move, delete or change anything, just looked to see if I could find the file as mentioned on another forum, but it wasn't there).  Not sure if this has a connection as to whether the .mpg file can be played with QT 10.1 or not.
    If you are referring to an MOV file created by importing the content directly from the camcorder, then it will be located in your iMovie "Event" folder, the location of which will depend on which drive you assigned it to. Such a file sould already be both playback and editable in QT applications.
    Any other input would be much appreciated.  Am I missing something from my QT 10.1 that should have  been installed?
    I believe that covers just about everything. Since QT 10.1 is the original version installed by the Lion OS installer, there have not been any updates to it and, unless you have been messing around deleting things in your QT component folders, there is little probability that anything has been deleted, removed, or misplaced during normal system use. What I normally recommed is that you keep QT 10.1 installed and install the Lion compatible version of QT 7 (v7.6.6 if not already installed) to maximize your QT playback capabilities between the two. In fact, I tend to use the QT 7 "Pro" player for most daily "quickie" edits and still consider it the more useful of the two utility-Players.
