Videos won't play in iPhoto now that Snow Leopard is there

I am finding one thing after another that won't work with Snow Leopard -- my fonts, my trackpad, and now my iPhoto videos. When I double-click on the videos, they no longer open in QuickTime or do anything, they won't play. Any suggestions? (Uninstall Snow Leopard?)
Thanks in advance.

This is a known glitch between earlier versions of iPhoto and 10.6. The solution is to install QuickTime 7. It's on the Snow Leopard installer disk.

  • Videos won't play in iPhoto since installing Lion

    Ever since i installed Lion the video clips stored in iPhoto will not play when double clicked.  I have to drag them out of iphot to the desktop and then double click them for quicktime to play them?  Never had this problem before installing Lion.  HELP!

    Wake95,
    Are you in the event browser or are you in the actual event itself? If you have the event open, then the video will play if you double click it. Also, are you sure that they are in a movie file format that QuickTime understands?
    Hope this helps,
    O.C.

  • Videos won't play in iPhoto

    I'm on Mac OS 10.6.8 and on iPhoto 7.1.5.  Quick Time no longer opens when I select a video to watch.  Nothing happens.  Anyone have a solution?

    Do you have Quicktime Player 7 installed?  If not download and install it from here: QuickTime Player 7.6.6 for Mac OS X v10.6.3.  Then launch iPhoto and try again.

    Since you haven't answered any question yet, I'll add another to the list.
    What version of OS X were you running prior to the upgrade?

  • My mac won't read my external harddrive's videos that I took with my Nikon.  Half the videos won't play, and those are .avi files.  WHY won't they play anymore and how can i retrieve them?

    What exactly is your problem? Is it, (a) your Mac doesn't read your external disk, or, (b) you can't retrieve your videos, or, (c) you can't play them, or, (d) you were able to play them at one point, but not any more.
    What version of Mac OS X are you using, what app are you trying to play your videos with, what happens when you do, and what error messages, if any, do you get?

  • Upgraded to the latest Keynote (5.3 1170) and now videos won't play in presentation mode, only audio

    Upgraded Keynote on my home and work computers to the latest version in the AppStore and now videos won't play in presentation mode.  In edit mode you can double click and it will play in the editor.  This happens on both computers running the latest version of ML (10.8.4).
    Any help here?  Alread tried a reinstall of ML on one machine with no luck.
    Was previously running Keynote 08 (non AppStore version).  Tried creating brand new presentations in 09, no luck.

    I had the same problem today in front of an audience with 300 people (MacbookPro OSX 10.10, Thunderbolt-VGA adapter, PPT 14.4.6).
    Here what I figured out so far:
    1. It happens when you have PPT open and connect to beamer afterwards
    2. You can resolve it (in my case) by quitting PPT and launching it WHEN connected to beamer
    3. Yet, make sure Mac does not go into sleep mode or you get a lock-screen in the waiting time. if you do so, you get back to square 1. quit PPT again 2. restart it.
    4. Also.... in one case I had to hit the volume control once to get the sound back even though movie was playing
    So in short: Connect to beamer first, then launch PPT
    I know it is only a symptom fix but it worked for me

  • Videos won't play on CBS, Fox, or NBC

    Hello!
    For the last 48 hours I've been trying to watch Gotham on Fox.com from my iMac (21.5-inch, Mid 2010)...no good.  I was just watching it earlier this week, and for some reason when I try now it only has a black window (no error message).  Videos won't play for me on NBC.com, Fox.com, or CBS.com on neither Chrome nor Safari nor Firefox.  Randomly, ABC.com DOES work across all fronts.
    Here is what I've tried:
    -Restarting computer
    -Refreshing constantly
    -Reinstalling Chrome / Firefox
    -Making sure Flash was updated
    -Clearing all website data / caches / extensions
    I even right clicked on the blank Fox video page, selected "Global Settings," and cleared all Local Storage Settings for Flash.  NOTHING!  I'm even starting to wonder if my roommate sabotaged my computer...that's how desperate I am on ideas.
    Best,

    Your videos play in iPhoto and they don't as well?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Videos won't play since 4.5 upgrade???

    I upgraded to 4.5 a few weeks ago (curve 8320 with T-Mobile) and any videos that I try to put on my phone now in WMV, AVI, etc format will not play.  Either I get a red error box saying the file is incompatible or it acts like it's going to play but it won't play.  I've never had to convert WMV before to play on the previous OS for the phone (4.2.2), they always played!  So I tried converting them with media manager, some still won't play and the ones that do have a black border around the video where almost 1/4 of the screen is blank with no video (and yes I have "full screen mode" selected).
    What is the deal with video and 4.5?  What file formats works now?  I don't understand why they removed ability to play these formats.  Always gotta be a problem with everything these days...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Seems that something is wrong with your device OS.
    Backup your sensitive data via BB Desktop Manager.
    Try to wipe the memory: Options-> Security Options->General Settings
    Open menu and select "Wipe handheld"

  • Videos won't play in iTunes

    TV, Video Podcast, Movies - none of them play in iTunes 10.5.3.  A windows pops up, you have the PAUSE button showing as if it's playing but nothing is happening, just a still shot of the video.  They play fine in quicktime.
    I re-installed iTunes, no luck.

    My friend sent me a music video, but it won't play in
    iTunes. It is formatted so that it should play, but
    all I see is white, green, and orange bars! The file
    plays in QuickTime now that I changed my setting to
    "Safe Mode" and also plays on my iPod, but what do I
    do for it to work in iTunes!? Thank you in advance
    for the help!

  • MailOnline videos won't play in Firefox unless in safe mode although they're fine in Explorer.

    It's for my mum, honest. Firefox 25, java and flash uptodate but the Mail Online videos won't play unless I start Firefox in safemode. A large white rectangle appears but nothing else.

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

  • Help me please, games crash on launch, youtube videos won't play.

    Whenever i start up sound blaster cinema it just crashes, it will be fine for about 10 seconds, then it just crashes, it will usually freeze up everything when it crashes only thing i can do is move my cursor around, it will unfreeze after 10 seconds or so as well.
    I have tried to update sound blaster cinema but there are not updates available.
    It would usually go back to normal after a shutdown or a restart but this time it wasn't having any of it.
    Can anyone suggest anything that i couldn't think of?
    The crashing first started a month+ ago, but today when I was playing L4D2 a boomer explosion crashed L4D2 and sound blaster cinema simultaneously and now sound blaster cinema won't stop crashing after launch.
    (Edit)
    I can't launch any games, i try to play the game osu! and it launches normally except the screen turns black and then it crashes. i try to launch steam and login but the login menu wont pop
    I can't even play a youtube video, the background of the video will show but the video won't play, it's not buffering but the video is loading.
    windows media player won't launch as well, videos on my computer will not play at all.

    (FIXED)
    I went and downloaded thee intel(R) driver update utility 2.0 went to find drivers and then to auto detect and updated my drivers.
     This is the driver that helped me. vvvv
    ( Iris, irispro, and hd graphics driver for windows*7/8/8.1 version 15.36.19.64.41.70 )
    Sound blaster cinema doesn't crash on launch anymore, neither does my game osu! and youtube videos now play.

  • After automatically updated to Firefox 3.6.15 videos won't play properly

    Recently when firefox was automatically updated to 3.6.15 suddenly videos won't play properly anymore. Vidxden videos used to play really well but now they don't load properly or not at all. All the other videos take forever to load and don't seem to be compatible anymore. I usually go to the same video sites and those don't work like they used to. I've noticed as well that hotmail is really slow and many pages won't load at all including windows live web site. It doesn't appear that 3.6.15 is very compatible with video play or msn sites.

    Since automatic update to 3.6.15, I am unable to play videos on abc.com, and even on my News Feed page in Facebook. The error message says the video is being blocked by an ad blocker in my browser. I have not changed my security settings, nor have I updated any other software recently.
    By the way, I did check the same videos (at abc.com and on Facebook) with Internet Explorer (same computer) and they played just fine.

  • IPhoto - Video playing doesn't work with Snow Leopard.

    Under Leopard, I use to be able to download photos and small video content from my camera straight into iPhoto. If I wanted to play a video in iPhoto, I just use to double click and Quicktime would open and play the video. Now, with Snow Leopard, nothing happens when I do this. Am I doing something stupid or is this another bug?
    Thanks.

    For anybody who stumbles across this thread from Google:
    I had the same issue using iPhoto '08 after upgrading to 10.6. I found a CNet article that describes the fix, which is basically that we have to re-install Quicktime 7 for use with '08 from the "Optional Installs" on the Snow Leopard disc, so you will end up with both Quicktime 10 and Quicktime 7 on your computer.
    The instructions are here:

  • M2ts videos won't play

    I just installed PSE 12 on a new computer and my m2ts videos won't play in the organizer. They do play in my pictures folder.

    Your registration of these products at Adobe does not mean that the products are activated on your computer.
    Let us focus the following
    Now I have a new problem. Once I removed and re-installed Elements 12, I now get a message that my trial period has expired. What do I do about that? Now I can't even use Elements.
    Based on prior history with this type of issue, there should be an option to "license this product" on the message. You say that there is not. There are 3 possible routes to take
    1. Contact Adobe via its Adobe Chat who specializes in product activation. You would click on the following link
    http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=premiere-elements&topic=serial-number-issues-o r-activating-my-product
    Once the link opens, click on the statement in the link "I still need help" in order to bring up the Adobe Chat.
    2. You could post a screenshot of the message that you are getting to see if we can detect anything in the message that we are overlooking.
    3. You could go through the uninstall, ccleaner, reinstall drill again, with the reinstall with anti-virus and firewalls off.
    We will work on the Elements Organizer 12 when the above is resolved.
    You wrote
    All I know is that these very same files played in the PSE11 organizer and the thumbnails were visible.
    Remember we are dealing with Elements Organizer 12 and not 11 in your specific computer environment. So nothing is to be taken for granted as we rule in and out factors to get at the core of the matter.
    Thanks.
