Videos not playing in iPhoto 09

I've just noticed that since upgrading to iLife 09 none of the videos that are in iPhoto now play (they used to happily launch Quicktime and play when double clicked).
Quicktime launches, but the videos do not play. Also, when I try to drag the videos from iPhoto onto my desktop they do not copy.
Any suggestions?

Don't re-import them - you'll be re-introducing data to a damaged database.
Try Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Videos not playing in iphoto with quick time/// pictures disappearing for good..

    upgraded to snow leopard. I used to be able to double click on my videos in Iphoto and they would start playing in quicktime. Now when i double click my videos, its not even acknowledged that i double clicked them at all. my video ONLY plays if i drag and drop the video on my desktop then double click. ALSO, when i merge photo events together in my iphoto or just move them around in iphoto they disappear and i cant find them anymore, forcing me to get out my time machine an back up to when i had those photos again... and i heard that iphoto 11 is not a good buy.. please help on this too thank you..

    well nevermind anyway... i bought LION and ILIFE11..... things seem to be in shape now...

  • Videos not playing in iPhoto and iMovie

    I have tons of video in iPhoto that are not playing.  They show a preview thumbnail, then they show the "triangle and exclamation" error sign when clicked on.  The same videos appeared in iPhoto as recently as yesterday and worked just fine.  The same videos no longer appear in iMovie and it says that iPhoto has no video content.  Any ideas on what to do? Please help!!!  Thanks

    Most likely, iPhoto lost track of where the videos are located.
    if you moved the folder or videos to a new location on purpose, move them back. If you think they were moved accidentally, do a Spotlight search to locate them, then re-import or move them back.

  • Videos not playing in iPhoto

    For some reason I can not view videos in iPhoto anymore. 
    I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 and iPhoto 9.6.1. 
    This has just happened today and I am hoping that the files haven't been corrupted.  Please help!

    Select one of the affected videos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder Window should open with the file selected.
    Does it? Does it play from there?

  • Videos not playing in iphoto v.7.1.5

    About a year ago, we stopped being able to view videos with iPhoto. We've upgraded our operating system a couple of times and now have Mountain Lion v10.8.3 but they still won't play.
    We have the latest version of quicktime and iphoto version 7.1.5.
    Any ideas?

    You have iPhoto 08 and that looks for QuickTime 7 - which was the current version of QuickTime when 08 was released.
    Once you updated the OS, QuickTime 7 was replaced by QuickTime X. iPhoto 08 doesn't know about X and so can't play the videos.
    Solutions:
    Either install QuickTime 7 or update iPhoto to a later version (09 or 11)

    is a link to the QuickTime 7 download.

  • Video does not play in iphoto

    I have an iMac with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.  iphoto accepts my  videos from my camera, but when I double click on them in iphoto, they  do not play.  I am running Mac OS X version 10.6.8 with quick time  version 10.0 (131).  I can go to quicktime and play them but curious as  to why they do not play in iphoto?

    Download and install QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later and then try playing one of the videos in iPhoto again.

  • When using ipad4, why do videos not play on Google?  Audio works fine

    WWhen using ipad,why do videos not play on Google? Audio still plays. I have reset the Google app and it will be ok for short time but then reverts back to not playing videos.

    Hi Vernon70,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that an application you downloaded from the App Store, Google, is not functioning as you would expect. In this situation, I would recommend following the troubleshooting steps outlined in the attached article.

  • Embedded MP4 videos not playing in iOS Safari

    Hi everyone,
    I'm having a problem with embedded MP4 videos (e.g. YouTube videos) not playing correctly in Safari. When I try to play one, I get one of two problems:
    1. On my (first gen) iPad, Safari usually crashes.
    2. On my iPhone 4, videos will load but only play audio, not video, though when I tap on the screen the "play" and "pause" symbols appear.
    Has anyone else run into this problem? Or know how to fix it?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Ok, I fixed it. Go to some embedded Flash video, click to run and then right click to get Global Settings for Flash. Go into Storage and make sure you aren't blocking any data from being stored on your computer. At the very least choose the "ask me" setting. (For good measure I also went into Advanced and clicked to Delete All Data associated with Flash. But when I restored Block for data storage the videos stopped working, so that seems to be the answer.) I'd be interested to hear if this works for others.

  • Why are my videos not playing the right way up

    Why are my videos not playing the right way up

    I took four video clips while on a trip this week.  Two are oriented the right way (playing wide on the device and imported correctly).  The other two are Tall and not oriented right.  Orientation is 90 degrees to the right.  I don't know why this is happening on occasions.  Even some pictures I took did the same **** thing.  It's weird.  And I can't figure it out.  The camera is held the way I want the pictures and videos to be recorded and played but something internal is turning these videos and pictures 90 degrees clockwise.

  • ITunes music not playing in iPhoto slideshow after upgrading to Maverick....Why?

    iTunes music not playing in iPhoto slideshow after upgrading to Maverick....Why?

    Yes, the tracks were purchased in the iTunes store. I'm sure that DRM is the culprit. Seems like an obvious answer now that I think about it.
    Thanks for the help.

  • Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11.

    Quick time movies (.mov) files will not play in Iphoto 11. The thumbnail of the movie shows but when selected only a exclamation mark appears.  I rebuilt the library, thumbnails, permissions etc. I also found the movie files in the iphoto database intact and working. Please advise.

    You're welcome.
    Well believe it or not, that's exactly what the exclamation point means. Search the forum. I've been doing this a while.
    Next, I have no interest, commercial or otherwise in Library Manager, I have no shares in the company that makes it. I didn't make it. It's not my software.  You could give those guys a million dollars and I'll get nothing from it. I and other expereinced users have recommended it thousands of times on this forum for this problem. Amazing how often it works. Of course, a quick search would have told you that already.
    Another: Believe it or not you can use the Rebuild Function of Library Manager for free. You don't need to purchase it for that purpose.
    Y'all have a nice paranoid day now.

  • U310 Touch - Videos not playing after 8.1 Update

    Hello,
    I have updated from Windows 8 to 8.1 and updated all my drivers on my U310 Touch.
    However, I seem to have a problem with web based videos not playing videos on the internet.
    This seems to happen on every kind of web browser, including IE, Firefox, Chrome, and even Steam.
    If anybody knows how to fix this problem, that'll be great.
    Thanks in advance.

    Since the upgrade to 8.1.1 my iPhone 6 stopped recognising the fingers I had stored. I've deleted and addrd them again (which went as norma) and it still has problems recognising them. Seems very intermittent now, whereas before this upgrade was very reliable.
    I've  reverted to a pin code :-(
