Upgrade to 10.8 cannot play movies and no movies in Photo Booth

Hi
I have been upgrading my iMac and now i cannot play .mov and there are no movies in photo booth.
Is there something I need to do to get this back?
Thanks

In the iTunes preferences have you tried the option under the Advanced tab to Change the location of your iTunes Media Folder location?
This might point you in the right direction

So on your external drive is all of your media in a folder called itunes or is it just music, movies etc. just in a bunch of folders that iTunes is not organizing?

  • Since I upgraded to Mavericks I cannot play .AVI files in Aperture

    Hi, I have about 1 Tera of .AVI videos as referenced files to Aperture libraries that I have spent long time organizing, tagging, and keywording... Since I upgraded to Mavericks I cannot play these videos any longer. I can play them with VLC or DivX but not within Aperture. Is there any way to ask Aperture to use VLC to play the videos? Or to get Quicktime to play them within Aperture? I assume I am not the only one with this problem but haven't found any way to solve it.
    Thanks a lot for any hint!

    Hi, I have about 1 Tera of .AVI videos as referenced files to Aperture libraries that I have spent long time organizing, tagging, and keywording..
    It is probably not a question of avi or mov. AVI is just a container for media with a variaty of codecs. It will depend on the codecs you installed, if Aperture will be able to show these.
    What is your Aperture version? Have you upgraded to Aperture 3.5.1? My Aperture version has no problems to show my AVIs. I installed Perian 1.2.3 to have more codecs.

    Did you restore a backup after you restored to factory settings? If you restored a backup, you should try restoring as new, but if hope that support already told you this.
    Have you tried using another WiFi networK? Do you have a computer running iTunes? If so, can you download apps or music on the computer?

  • Scanner moves and then moves back to start and turns my printer off.

    When turning on my printer, the scanner moves and then moves back to start and turns my printer off. I can not turn my printer back on unless I unplug it and plug it back in. Then it just does the same thing again and again and again.

    Hello @LuvInCayer , and welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see you're having power issues.  I would like to help!
    I'd recommend starting with a power reset.  Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
    I would also recommend plugging the printer power into a different wall outlet.
    Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

  • Just upgraded to 10.7 - cannot play movies or TV programs - iTunes freezes and Windows states iTunes has stopped working and kicks me out - play audio OK, store and synching to devices OK.

    Running Windows Vista Home Premium - Service Pack2
    iTunes has always worked beautifully - opened it yesterday and said upgrade was available so I did and upgrade seemed to be successful - no errors and program launches and all my music, TV programs, Movies, etc, were there. Audio works well.  Tonight I tried to play a movie and got the Windows iTunes has stopped working and searching for solution (which there is none) and closing the warning box closes iTunes.  iTunes used to launch a "separate" black window for my movies/TV - I seemed to get  a black background before everything freezes.  Not happy.  Thanks for any help - I tried to upgrade quicktime just to make sure it wasn't lagging behind the iTunes upgrade but that didn't help.

    Let's try the following user tip with that:

  • We have iPhoto and Mavericks - Cannot play video and get error (OSStatus error -54). Have run permissions and rebuilt iphoto database.. This is most valuable 3 minute movie file I have... Help

    Has anyone a clue how I can save myself from losing most valuable video clip I have ever taken.? Have a fully up to date Macbbok pro retina and most recent iPhoto. Had 55,000 pictures and a few videos in iTunes database. Just a few months ago also installed iCloud. Now find my London Big Ben Fireworks shot of fireworks at midnight coming from clock just returns -54 error when I click it to play. Did a rebuild and permissions attempt at fixing without success. The front picture of start of video shows at start of pictures but only error box now pops up.
    I had a time machine backup that goes back some months and a old computer it may have been on but have not found it yet.
    I do not want to risk losing anything.  We are just finishing cruise of England and Med on our small boat-home and do not want to lose photos of our memories. Thought they were safe since in iTunes and backed up to TIME machine, and now learn they cannot be pulled out separately... Can anyone help us?
    Thanks. I am grateful for any help or ideas while we float out the winter here in England before trying to sail back to America next year.
    Happy Holidays.

    I could not find the original file.
    I did find a file folder named MASTERS.
    I did click down in it to where all the other original files seem to be listed in order.
    They are listed in files showing (name); (date modified); (date created); (size); (kind); and (date added)
    There is a symbol showing each file type, with one file type for photos and a separate symbol showing the movies before each file.
    All of them that are showing properly are listed in order with their name sequentially, ie:
    DSCN4738.JPG
    DSCN4739.JPG
    DSCN4740.JPG
    DSCN4742.MOV
    DSCN4743.MOV
    DSCN4744.MOV
    My valuable movie that now won't play is shown in iPhoto viewing page listing labeled DSCN4741.MOV
    I think I find it later...
    OUT OF SEQUENCE APPROXIMATELY 14 files later I show the file that is shown on the listing info when viewing now named
    New Years Eve Fireworks.MOV  1/1/12 Jan 1, 2012, 12:58 AM  258.1MB  QuickTime file  Feb 21, 2013, 3:46 PM
    NOTE: The creation time is exactly where it should be in sequence but camera taken with was off an hour
    Also, all files in list show the Feb 21, 2013 date - which is date Apple Store migrated my old computers files, which would have included my iPhoto library from my old MACBOOK PRO to the new one.
    I do now remember that in past I had played some of the files from the computer by clicking on them directly in the early hours of the morning - showing some of them to a friend - while messing around demoing this MacBk Pro Retina...
    Though I do not have a clear recall of it recall earlier having a hard time finding this file. I am now certain - based on the circumstantial evidence - I must have changed the name from DSCN4741.MOV to the name shown at the first line of the listing two paragraphs up.
    Now my quandary is how do I escape this mess I made for myself and restore it. I clearly am -- despite being 68 -- being more of a "script kiddie" than a "hacker", but not a competent one of either!
    Thanks for your help in analyzing this Terence, and hope you can help me fix my screwing it up.  Ed

  • I have had my Ipod touch 4th gen for 2+ years and was working fine until I upgraded to ios 6.1.3. Now I cannot play games and most of my apps keep crashing.

    My ipod was working just fine for the past 2 years and ever since upgrading to ios 6.1.3, i simply cannot play games or anymore such as Subway surfers, carrot fantasy, 4 pics 1 word, etc. I also noticed that i had 1.2 GB of free space on ios 5.1.1 but then decreased to 900+ MB after "upgrading" to ios 6.1.3. I then deleted one of my space-hungry apps (the sims freeplay) to clear up some space and now have 1.6 GB of free memory. Just a thought, could apple have purposely done this with their software update to actually make an older, phased-out product such as my ipod touch 4th gen work worse than it has in its  previous versions of softwares to force you to scrap it for a newer product?

    - Double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod.
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • My MacBook cannot play avi and rmvb format movies

    Is the Real Player from this link applicable to Mac as well ?
    Can a Mac play rmvb files ?
    Or you meant to say, Real Player cannot play in Mac & that Mac needs Real Alternative to play rmvb files ?

  • Cannot play downloaded iTunes HD movies

    Hello,
    I initially had an issue downloading movies on my PC from iTunes in HD. I seemed to have taken care of that bug, now I cannot play any of my downloaded HD movies and wanted to know how to fix this. I never had a problem before but this seems to be an intermittent issue. Sometimes it works but most of the time it does not.
    I do get a pop up window saying that my machine cannot play HD movies and that I should download in SD instead....this does not make any sense seeing that I was able to do this prior to a couple of the last iTunes software updates.
    Can anyone help?

    I restored my nVidia 8800GT graphics card and was able to watch the HD content purchased from iTunes, again.  So, it should be able to do the same.
    If your plan is to install both video cards on your system, there might be a problem.  If iTunes senses that there is a video card that implements the HD encryption standard, it will restrict HD output to that video card.

  • ATV2 not playing audio on my movies and sometimes movie won't play

    My Apple TV 2 has been working great until Sunday. It stopped playing the audio to my movies. It also won't play some movies that it could play before. The audio all worked before as well. My music plays fine. I also have audio from my podcasts and movie trailers. I have performed a Restore, but that didn't help. Is my Apple TV faulty? It's only 4 months old, so it's still on warranty. My iTunes runs on a Windows 7 PC. It's up-to-date. I have a Apple TV first generation on a second TV and everything works perfectly on that one. I get audio on all my movies and no stream problems.

    Have a look at Apple Support Article TS3518 at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3518. It gives advice about making a change to Audio & Video settings on your ATV2 and changing Dolby Digital out to "off." It worked for me.

  • Cannot play games and my taskbar is flying? :o

    You can see that my task bar is flying here http://gyazo.com/1612a6c973c495c55745dd793c3cab4e
    How can i fix this?

    Now the piece of CRAP doesn't work when I don't even have the music on, just playing a game.
    I was playing Vortex and I was on the seventh level, when the it flashed low battery.
    The little battery was green and it was more than three quarters full.
    It turns off and won't come on.
    You have to leave for five minutes and then it will turn on again.
    When you go back to the game it starts you on level one again and does remember it being on level seven.
    This 30gb is only fourteen months old and it probably needs a new battery now?
    Why do I have to pay for something they didn't get right.
    That's like the whole electrical system going on a year old car!
    Who built this thing? Chrysler?
    APPLE you should be ashamed of making such a lousy product!!
    never again will I purchase anything from apple again!!

  • What's a safe DVD ripper to make copy of personal DVD movie and other movies?

    What's a safe DVD ripper to make copy of personal DVD movie and then make a copy to another blank DVD?

    The easiest way is to use Disk Utility to create a disk image of the DVD; you can then burn that to a blank DVD (and indeed play it using the DVD player).
    Insert your DVD. Open Disk Utility and select it in the sidebar (the disk itself, not the drive it's in.) Click 'New Image' in the toolbar.
    In the dialog box which opens set 'Image Format' to 'DVD/CD Master' and 'Encryption' to 'none'. This will make an exact copy without re-compressing.
    Obviously this will not work on a commercially issued DVD, only on ones you make yourself or which are not DRM protected.

  • Rented movies and purchased movies can be burned in a cd?

    I just want to ask you guys if it is possible to burn your rented movies or purchased movies in a dvd-r?
    Hope someone replies. Thanks

    dattebayo,
    Rented movies can't be burned.
    Purchased movies can be burned to a Data CD, but will only play on computers authorized for your account. You can have up to 5 computers authorized for your iTunes Store account at a time.
    Hope this helps,
