Videos playing but not viewable... Quicktime?

Any iTunes videos I have are suddenly not viewable (the screen has lines throuigh it and multi-colors). The audio is fine.
I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling QuickTime to no avail. Now I'm wondering if I need to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime and then reinstall.
My question: since all of my music is on my iPod, when I plug it back into the computer after the reinstall, will it automatically transfer my library back to iTunes on my computer?
Thanks!

Uninstalling & reinstalling iTunes shouldn't affect your actual music & video files.
Make a backup of your itunes library.itl file before you begin, though - the 2 files mentioned here:

Put them on a USB drive or just somewhere else on your C: drive.
But anyway - as for the video problem, have you seen this article?

    Thanks for your reply. This video was recorded by my own professional camera, Sony PMW EX 3, two years back. But I am neither a professional cameraman nor an editor. I am just like a beginner in both.  I didnt have space in my storage device, so I just copied all my clips, thinking I can edit it latter, without recompressing or editing or whatever I should have done it at that point of time.  Now I need to edit it and use it in my profession. I am very upset.  Please help me in going step by step to get it in FCP X for editing.  Also I would like to know, do I need to buy the Compressor 4 for any reason. I dont mind in buying, if you think it is going to be useful for some reason.  Thank you very much in anticipation for any kind of proper guidance.

    Correct. The developers have not enabled it for airplay. Audio is on by default.

  • When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted.. help?

    Firefox 3.6.8 and 3.5 (I downgraded to see if that would solve the issue)
    Windows 7
    Intel Core i5
    Flash Player: WIN 10,1,53,64
    When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted. The image turns into lines and sometimes it half of the screen of the video. Examples are streaming MLB.tv video and some vimeo videos. The odd thing is that it isn’t all Vimeo videos. Is this a flash issue?
    The issue does not happen with Internet Explorer which leads me to believe this is an issue with Firefox. I downgraded to 3.5 and the issue still persists.

  • Video plays but no audio. Help!

    I have a 2011 MacBook Air with the proper configurations and Mountain Lion. I am trying to take an online course. The video plays but no audio.  I have tried all the suggested fixes, but nothing works.  Everything else works on my computer with no problem.  I need help fast.  Any ideas or known issues?

    Sorry, I read the forum rules . Thanks for the reply, but I haven't actually updated the Nvidia drivers in a while. Right now they are on 311.06. I keep them at the stock clock speed as well. Also have a slightly overclocked i5 2500k. but that never effected Adobe products before.
    I wonder, does VLC Player at all affect clip playback? I think I saw there little traffic cone.
    Yup. Is PP CC using VLC instead of Quicktime? And/or would that have an effect on playback? Also how would I correct that? I imagine uninstalling VLC would.
    Well, I uninstalled VLC, and now the Quicktime logo shows up just before the thumbnail loads instead of the VLC logo. I'm gonna assume that means that PPCC is using quicktime, but I STILL get no video in preview playback!
    Starting to get frustrated.

  • I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go?

    I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. I freed up a ton of storage space to make sure I had the room for it. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go? I re-booted my iPad, signed off/on iTunes etc. I can't find a folder with downloadable items anywhere. ITunes just tells me, "you've already rented this video. Do you want to rent it again?" What happened to my movie?

    Did you check the Videos app?

    You need to provide more information. How are you connecting your iPad to the TV. Are you using an Apple TV 2, a component AV cable, a composite AV cable or the digital AV cable?

  • Using imovie09 - music playing but not images (music is linked to images though)

    there is a small green marker shaped as arrow at start of my project that seems to be causing my music to play but not my images in my project. I can manually move forward beyond marker and both music and images will play. Does anyone know what this is/how to remove it? Since it appeared it seems to be crashing my imovie if I try to play project full screen. thanks

    All of the songs play in iTunes, on the computer?
    So, it's the same two songs that DO play on the shuffle, before and after the Restore?  That is odd...
    Go to the iTunes Store, and on the Home screen, click on Free on iTunes under QUICK LINKS.  Download a free song.  Remove all of the songs from the shuffle (you can do another Restore or remove them from the shuffle's Music listing), and add only that new iTunes Store download to the shuffle.  Does it play?
    If it plays, add just one of the songs that previous did not play to the shuffle.  Do they both play, or just the first song?

  • Up next doesn't seem to work properly with multiple speakers over airplay. The status bar on the computer shows the song playing, but not over airplay. When I restart the song it plays, but the same thing happens when the next song cues up. Any ideas?

  • Is it possible to Authorize to play, but not to purchase?

    I have a shared computers in some of the labs and don't mind folks listening to my purchased iTunes music, but don't want random elements to be able to purchase things from iTunes with my account name and password (and stored credit card number!!!). Is it possible to authorize playing, but not purchase? different passwords maybe?
    several   Windows XP   Mac and PC
    several   Windows XP   Mac and PC

    Just log off from your iTMS account after purchasing - that will leave your computer authorized for playing, but for purchases there is the need to enter your ID + PW.

  • IMoviemobile export to Camera Roll will not play with quicktime on PC (video plays but with black screen, audio ok)

    Videos created in iMovie on the new ipad will not play on PC with Quicktime after being exported to the Camera Roll and copied to the PC. Movie will play but with a black screen only. Audio ok. Was able to do before ios 6 but not now.

    I'm having the same problem. All of the movies I export out of iMovie since upgrading to the latest version show up with no video, only audio, in Quicktime. Ironically the video place just fine in Windows Media Player and also in iTunes.

  • A mov file plays in 'Get Info' preview, but not in Quicktime

    I recorded a talk to web cam yesterday using Quicktime Pro and edited out the overlong pauses and fluffs to produce a series of .mov clips. Today I copied and pasted the clips into one .mov file in Quicktime Pro. The first 12 clips were fine.
    The 13th clip opened as if it was audio only, but when played did not give any sound. An examination of the movie properties window showed about 3 minutes of audio and video, but neither were selected and could not be selected. When I tried to extract the video thinking I could then reassemble the file, I got a message saying that one of my raw clips was missing. The file was saved as self-contained and is about 7 MBytes. When it opens with the appearance of an audio file the last part of the clip I pasted in is highlighted as if selected; this corresponds to the file it is asking for.
    Now I had deleted my raw data as my hard drive is nearly full and I was getting warnings to that effect. But as the files had been saved as self-contained rather than reference, this should surely not be a problem.
    The strange thing is that if I select the .mov file and do a 'get info' then I can play the audio and video perfectly in the 'get info' preview plan, up until that final part corresponding to the missing file.
    It looks like I have to do the last bit once more, but how can I keep the rest of it? I've tried deleting the final part and re-saving, but it still opens with the appearance of an audio file (which is silent when I play it). I can at least listen to what I said in the first recording, but it would be good to be able to keep the part that plays in 'get info'.
    Any ideas of how I can get to it?
    Any ideas.

    Solution found.
    I simply created a new .mov file and changed its name to the raw file that Quicktime told me was missing when I tried to open my edited clip.
    The edited clip now opens and I've been able to delete the final portion (which appears selected when the clip opens) and save the rest, which plays fine.
    This seems to have been a problem because in this particular clip I left the final portion I pasted in selected when I saved the file, even though I saved is as self-contained, not a reference file.

  • Video plays but do not hear sounds

  • Moive plays in Finder preview, but not in Quicktime

    Have several movies made using a REALBasic QT plugin. Most of the movies are fine, but a few refuse to play in QT. Double clicking causes a 10-second delay, after which the player opens with the controls (and it's playing) but there's no image area. However, the movie plays fine in the Finder preview.
    I've tried using QT to export the bad movie, but QT hangs.
    Any ideas on how to extract or repair the movie?

    It played for me but...
    A couple of issues you should address.
    You don't have a DOCTYPE and
    you have two instances of <title> and </title>
