It simply does not work!

You need to install a player for it.

Unable to see AVI files

With OS X I cannot see AVI files with quick time 7
I had no problems with OS9 and quick time 6 in my old computer
Please help

To The Apple Discussion Boards!
Do you mean that you have no "video" yet sound?
Do you get any "need plugin and/or codec" messages?
The following plays avi files. See if they solve your issue.

Unable to see streaming video

When I go to youtube or anywhere else to see streaming video I can't. I have updated the OS, and even reloaded the OS. I didn't do a reformat yet, I was hoping someone would tell me what I am missing, or what is conflicting. What app does the Mac use to see videos ??

Go to Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility and select your volume and then select Repair Permissions.

I am unable to see tutorial videos on the apple site due to a missing pug-in

I am trying to view the video tutorials on the Apple website, I can hear the sound but can't see the video, just the words "missing plug-in"! What am I missing and how do I get it?

Looking back at old discussions I found the answer. I turned off the Divx extensions in Safari>Preferences>Extensions and the Apple videos work! Thank you - you clever people!

Why am I unable to import avi video to iPhoto

I have Lion on my Mac and I am unable to move an avi file to iPhoto, I get an error message, can anyone suggest how I go about this
Thanks in Advance
Helen

Click on help and at the bottom of the context menu you should see:
About Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.7.1
That is the latest version.
Otherwise, if you installed through a Creative Cloud subscription launch CC desktop and install the latest version of Lightroom from there.
If you have a stand-alone purchased version of LR5 go to:
Help >> Check for Updates
Install 5.7.1

Unable to see Youtube videos after upgrade to SL

Hi All,
After upgrading my MacBook Pro to SL from a recently installed and very clean (and updated just 2 days ago) Leopard system, I suddenly cannot watch any youtube videos at youtube.com
Where the video should be it is all pitch black.
Right clicking says "Movie not loaded..." followed by "About Adobe Flash Player 10" in the next line.
However I can watch youtube videos embedded at other sites (reddit.com) as well as when I press the top right button (windows mode) at youtube.com.
I do not use anything weird and have not seen any errors in console related to Safari.
I do not get this problem on my iMac which has been upgraded to SL as well without any issues!
Any ideas?

If the issue is limited to your user account try starting up Safe Mode (It will take more time to startup in Safe Mode because it runs a directory check.)
If your apps functions correctly that way, go to System Preferences >> Accounts >> Login Items, and remove them. Boot normally and test. If not go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and move whatever is there to the desktop. Then do the same with /Library/Contextual Menu Items. Lastly, try moving ~(yourHome)/Library/Fonts to your desktop and restarting.
Log out/in or restart, if that sorts it start putting items back one at a time until you find the culprit.

If I accept cookies, I am unable to see videos in YouTube

Yesterday I upgraded Firefox from version 3.6.13 to version 3.6.14 on two different machines (both of which use Windows XP). And then a very strange thing happened: after that I am unable to see YouTube videos. I can see hear the sound but there is no image (there is a white space instead). Furthermore, this only happens when I am a regular user, not an administrator. And it happens only with YouTube. The only way I found to fix the problem was to delete all YouTube cookies and to block any new ones. Then all works fine.

If you've an answer that works, that's fine. Problem may occur for various reasons, including flash problems and video drivers requiring updating.
As a temporary workaround hovering your cursor over the place where the pop-out button should be below the YouTube video screen, then left click there and the video will then display in the pop-out screen.

Hi, my mac has stopped playing some avi files (that used to work). I can see the video. Does anyone know why and what i can do? My version of quicktime is 7.6.9.

Hi i have avi files saved in iphoto that i used to be able to play through quicktime. However in the last few weeks i cannot play many of these files. I can see the videos and click on them but nothing happens (i have version 7.6.9 of quicktime). Does anyone know why this has happened and what i can do about this?
Thanks.

What do you mean by what audio/video formats are involved? These are all files from several digital cameras.
As previously stated, AVI is a file container. It is somewhat old and its originator, Microsoft, dropped official support of it over a decade ago. However, it remains popular with PC users since almost any valid audio and/or video compression format can be stuffed to the file which synchronizes the content by interleaving the individual audio and video frames. The compression format is the specific manner in which the audio and video data are encoded as it is placed in the AVI container. You can find the compression format by inspecting the file in the Finder "Info" window, or in the "Inspector" window of the QT player (or other media player) if the file can be opened.
For instance, one popular compression combination would be to place DivX encoded video and MP3 audio in an AVI file container. However, neither DivX nor MP3 is natively supported by the QT player. (Although iTunes will natively support the MP3 audio.) Therefore, people who wish to play such files in the QT 7 Player would normally install either the DivX component or Perian but not both. Either installation will independently play such files in the QT Player, but if both are installed, the file will usually stop working since these two codecs can create a playback conflict.
However, the AVI container could just as easily contain DV along with DV audio. In this case, the file should play correctly in QT since this compression format is natively supported by the basic component configuration that comes in every current OS installation. Therefore, if such files suddenly stopped playing, this could be an indication that a component has been moved or deleted or that your system or QT embedded structure has become corrupted.

Unable to see export to avi option

HI all,
Earlier i was able to export flash movie files to avi movie. but now unable to see that option. Please tell the solution.

I followed the exporting of the .fla file to .mov and after several minutes wai - stalling on 'Recording Flash Content' - i get a massage like '....out of memory' ....which is IMPOSSIBLE because I have more than half the memory. Im only opening Flash so the RAM is not used much as well.
I never really had a problem doing that with Flash CS5.5
So I am exporting the SWF and go online and use Flabacco browser conversion for free to convert the SWF to MP4. If you know another way I appreciate any info. thanks

Flash 11.7.700.202 - reports of unable to see video

We run a social video site and have had many reports of users unable to see video in the last few days. Our code has not changed and we believe this is due to the 11.7.700.202 release as these problems were not previously reported.
Symptoms:
User is subscribing via rtmfp to a live stream on an Adobe FMS. When this happens, we don't know if they fail to connect or the connect succeeds and they don't see video. We use an inhouse flash app. The feed is available on the FMS since other users are successfully subscribing to the same feed.
This happens to a small percent of users but that leads to many reports across our user base.
Refreshing the page, which reinstantiates the flash app, removes the problem.
Is anyone else seeing problems with viewing video from the newly updated flash player?
Thank you,
Robert

We found the problem and it is on our side, not a problem with the flash upgrade. I'll write what happened here in case it can help anyone else.
On Sunday night, two days after this post, one of our FMSs stopped accepting RTMFP publishes. When we examined the box we found that it was reporting that it had reached its max licensed RTMFP connections. We know there weren't that number of connections on there and suspect that connections leaked. After restarting the box, the FMS resumed accepting RTMFP publishes. This failure has never happened to us before so we're treating it as a one-off and not investigating.
Since the restart of that FMS, reports of subscribe failures have disappeared. That's great and we're presuming the restart fixed the subscribe failures. The strange thing is that users were reporting subscribe failures several days before we observed any publish failures. That said, we know this FMS was in a strange state so we concluded our investigation.
Thanks to Chris for the quick response on this.

Since i made the upgrade to mountain lion i¡m unable to make facebook video calls , i can,t see other's people webcam

since i made the upgrade to mountain lion i¡m unable to make facebook video calls , i can,t see other's people webcam

I am having this same issue on my Macbook Pro Early 2011 running Mountain Lion. I try and use Facebook video chatting as I usually would, and although the other person can see me, what I see on my end is a still picture from their webcam that is often flickering between what my own webcam is picking up, and it continuously flickers with static lines (picture an old TV getting bad signal).
Skype is also behaving strangely since I upgraded, although it's flip-flopped (Skype is not letting others see me but I can see them)
With both Skype and Facebook, audio is having no issues.

Hi, I'm unable to see if I have any music/videos/photos on my ipad and itunes advise that I have 23gb of 'other' material therefore the sync is unable to perform when transfering music/videos to the ipad.

23 GB of other indicates a corrupt file(s). A restore should resolve.

Hi,
Error 7 is when a router or the connection to the router is broken in some way.
Some devices have features such as Denial Of Service protection (DoS) that cut a particular Internet Port when it thinks too much data is coming (Presuming it is an attack.)
iChat 5 in Leopard is not capped by the System Preferences > Quicktime Streaming speed (which we used to suggest was set at 1.5Mbps)
It now sees your whole Connection speed and your Upload may be much faster than this.
Your Download is likely to be much faster. However iChat will tend to operate at the lower figure of your Upload.
DoS features are threshold based.
You may now be bumping in to this Threshold where you were not before.
SPI (Stateful packet Inspection) does a different job but has the same effect when it is overloaded by the speed of the data.
If you have either of these features, turn them Off (Disable them)

I am unable to see you tube video, every time it says "an error occured please try agian"

Every time i want to play you tube it is showing message that "an error occured please try agian"
pls provide me solution by which i can see youtube videos properly

Hi sprakash,
Thank you for your question, I understand that there are some issues looking at youtube videos. In the past I have seen changing the DNS connection has helped other users: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1MvpKqgXJg] however since you are seeing this everytime, this video will not be helpful. I you change the network connection to point the DNS to 8.8.8.8, it may improve the video connection.
Other fixes I have seen are updating the audio driver for the device you use to listen to the videos with. [[Fix common audio and video issues]] may also prove useful.
Also noticed an outdated plugin:
When you visit the plugin update checker, does this : Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 11.0.07
show up as vulnerable?
Please post back with the results, it can help other users, and thank you!
