Video/x-ms-asf plug-in

Whenever I try to open certain video's I get a message that I need to download plug-in video/x-ms-asf.
How and where can I find this. I have tried adding a new file helper like one suggestion I found told me to do but it did not work.
Thanks
I am using IE, but I have safari also.

Larry, you can try downloading and installing Windows Media Player 9.0.

Safari can't find plug in MIME type "video/x-ms-asf-plugin"

hello. i feel seriously computer illiterate at the moment.
i want to listen to something,
but it tells me this:
The page “radio soleluna jova channel” has content of MIME type “video/x-ms-asf-plugin”, but you don’t have a plug-in for this MIME type. This page may have the plug-in for you to download and install:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/download/default.asp"
i went there and installed wmp the lastest version, and some quicktime-wmp related thing for macs, but still no go...what kind of program do i need to run this plug in or whatever?
thanks in advance.

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions
That station is streaming their audio in a Microsoft sound format.
The only way you'll be able to play Windows Media content in native mode on your Intel machine is using the free plug-in Flip4Mac plug-in. This plug-in automatically converts the windows content to a Quicktime format, which will play within Mac browsers.
After downloading the plugin, double click on the download file to install the plug-in. There's really nothing else you need to do with the plug-in, as the default settings are sufficient for your needs.
Next step is deciding where you can play Radio Soleluna. I tried it on Safari 4, but the content does not play. More than likely, this is due to how the site is coded. A good browser alternative that does play the content is Firefox 2.0.0.5. Once installed, you can import your existing Safari bookmarks to Firefox. This way you can access content on either browser.
Before dealing with the Bookmarks (I'll provide guidance), download Flip4Mac, and if necessary, Firefox.

Mini DVI video adapter doesn't plug into MacBook

I purchased a Mini DVI video adapter at the time that I purchased my MacBook in late 2007. I planned to use it later to connect to a larger monitor. I also purchase a MacBook for my wife in late 2008. I recently realized that this Mini DVI video adapter will not plug into the display plugin on either MacBook. I searched, but cannot find any video adapter that will actually plug in to either MacBook.

Here's a mini-DVI cable and port
Here's a mini-DisplayPort port:
Here's a mini-VGA cable and port (the port is to the right of the USB 2 port):
This should help you determine what you actually have.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 7. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
You might have to log out or reboot before a Flash update takes effect.
Step 2
In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.
Step 3
If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, log in to YouTube and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
Step 4
If you get a warning of a "blocked" or "outdated" plug-in, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch the browser.
If the warning persists, triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open. Inside it, there should be a file named "XProtect.meta.plist". If that file is missing and you know why it's missing, restore it from a backup or copy it from another Mac running the same version of OS X. Otherwise, reinstall OS X.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 5
Open this folder as in Step 4:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
Step 6
Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from the domain "get.adobe.com". Don't click a link from any other website, including this one, because you can't trust links. They may be an attempt to trick you into installing malware masquerading as Flash. Type the address into the browser window. Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
Step 7
If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...
if present and make sure that the website is not blocked for Flash.
Step 8
Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.

Wait until Adobe updates the Flash Player.

Cannot veiw email videos screen says blocked plug in

when i try to veiw a email video a screen says blocked plug in and i have updated my adobe flash several times

Very likely you have an older version of a plug-in installed for your browser. Most of the time the culprit for this is Adobe's Flash player. Go to Adobe's web page and download and install the newest version of their plug-in.
Best of luck.

Google Chrome videos: "Couldn't load plug-in", flash not working.

For some reason today I can't play any sort of YouTube videos, and flash player is simply not working anymore. This happen spontaneously, and I am almost certain that I didn't trigger anything that could do something to this degree. I've installed flashplugin from the AUR, did not fix it. Though YouTube and flash is working in Firefox.
I got a notification from Google-chrome that it has been updated but that did not fix this problem.
Thank you for any responses.

In my case, I have NEVER had Flash working, on any of the browsers I have tried (Firefox 19, Chromium 25, Google Chrome-dev 27, Opera). It's a fresh installation on a laptop I'm trying to set up for my 7-yr-old (to visit funbrain.com, Nick Jr, Disney Jr, etc). Unfortunately, all these educational/game sites need Flash player.
It's an old ThinkPad T23 (1G memory), and I've been trying to find *something* that is light enough to run on this system, yet will still run Flash (Ubuntu/Mint ran the sites too slow, and XP won't work with the USB wifi adapter). Certainly not the best machine for this, but it's what I have that still works.
Of course, you know that I'll get it working and find out the browser/flashplayer performance is just as unusable as it was with Mint...

I Got a Cannon Camera for Christmas and I made some videos. I was going to upload my videos, but when i plugged in the wire it didn't even respond. So I have a device that burns videos to disks from the camera, and burned a disk. It did not respond! Help!

How?
We don't know what kind of CANON you have, what kind of Mac you have, how you are connecting it, etc etc etc.

Just updated software now youtube videos won't play, "plug-in failure"

any suggestions?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
          DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

I had my mac formatted ipod video (5th gen) and plugged it into windows.

And now it constantly asks me to restore it, and I do, and it asks me to restore the ipod again and that it's corrupt.
Is there ANY way to fix this? Should I try to reformat it to mac?

Jeff Bryan wrote:
Thanks, but is the corrupt message normal?
I wouldn't have expected to see that message when you connect a Mac formatted iPod to Windows. Something along the lines of, "Windows cannot read the contents of the iPod. Use Windows to reformat" or similar is what I would have thought.
well, just my luck. i'll try formatting my ipod to mac format when I get the chance next. oh, and my warranty just expired not even 2 weeks ago. I swear I'm so lucky.

Why do I get "missing plug-in" when I try to play apple video tutorial?

I tried to watch a Video Tutorial from Apple's website, Support, but when I click on the video, it says "missing plug-in". Then I click on the line that says "when trouble viewing videos, click here" (right next to the Q for Quicktime) and i get a message that says "Quicktime is already part of your Mac". I checked to make sure I have the latest update of Quicktime, and I do.
Other plug-in "help tips" say that I should "get a plug in" but don't say WHERE to get it, or WHICH ONE to get.
Other articles say to "check the website to see which plug-in you need", but don't tell you how or where to check on the website??
HELP
It feels like I'm going in a loop and all "answers" that i find already assume that I know what I need.....

Plug-in for straightening video in iMovie '09?

Hi. I have an iMac intel with OS 10.5.8 and iMovie '09. I need to "straighten" some of my video clips and got plug-in Slick 10 from GeeThree but failed to read the very fine print that says the plug-in can't be used in iMovie '09. Anyone have any other ideas that don't involve buying Final Cut Pro? (I just hope I can get my money back from GeeThree!) Thanks for your help.

In iMovie 09 you can only rotate your video in 90 degree increments.
This is designed for basically straightening video shot on it's side.
It cannot be used for fine adjustments.
I am not sure whether Final Cut Express ($199) can do it however it supports a wide range of 3rd party plugins including Slick.
Z.
