Videos won't show up or play in any browser

I have created a website  in iWeb version 3.04 that contains videos imported into and from iMovie '11 version 9.04.
In iWeb, the videos play just fine.
I published the website to a local folder...then FTP'd the resulting index.html and website directory to my hosting account.
I have not done anything fancy or sophisticated...I have not done any customization...just straightforward and simple drag-n-drop.
Everything shows up and works perfectly except the videos on this page:
http://www.midwayfullgospel.com/Midway_Full_Gospel/Visit_Online.html
From a Windows 7 64-bit computer, I have tried FireFox 13.01, Internet Explorer 9, Opera 11.11, and Safari 5.1.7 and they all have the same problem.
From a MacBook Pro running Lion, I have tried Safari 5.1.5 and it does not work either.
As a point of reference, all of these browsers will play YouTube videos just fine.
Also, if it comes down to this...I can look at HTML code and get the basic gist of what is happening...but I am not a web-programmer...so please respond accordingly.
So...I created a simple site in iWeb...uploaded it to my website...the videos don't play...and I am humbly calling out to the experts for help.
And, thank you in advance.

Thank you QTK for your swift reply.
I am using GoDaddy's deluxe 4GH hosting.  In searching their support site, there does not appear to be any documented problems with the m4v extension.
It appeared as if the video file was missing to me too.  So, I dug into the page source code...and here is the file "tree" as I understand it:
http://www.midwayfullgospel.com/Midway_Full_Gospel/Visit_Online.html is the top level page that the movies are supposed to play in.
To display the movies, this file calls a JavaScript script called writeMovie1() which is contained in the file:
midwayfullgospel.com/Midway_Full_Gospel/Visit_Online_files/Visit_Online.js
Inside the script, the writeMovie1() code includes the following relevant items:
data="Media/MidwayService-Part1-6-10-12-mobile.m4v"
and...
<param name="src" value="Media/MidwayService-Part1-6-10-12-mobile.m4v"
Now, a snapshot of my directory structure from FileZilla (ftp client):
So, tying all these together based on what I think I am seeing and understanding...if http://www.midwayfullgospel.com/Midway_Full_Gospel/Visit_Online.html reaches "down" into the Visit_Online_files directory to load the Visit_Online.js file so that it can resolve the writeMovie1() script then it seems logical that it should be able to reach "down" into the Media directory and find the m4v files that absolutely do exist there.
As a secondary form of proof that the movie files exist in this directory...If I start QuickTime Player (in Windows 7) and do a File | URL Open... on:
ftp://[email protected]/Midway_Full_Gospel/Media/MidwayService-Par t1-6-10-12-mobile.m4v//[email protected]/Midway_Full_Gospel/Media/MidwayService-Part1-6-10-12-mobile.m4v
Then, I am asked for my ftp password and then the movie loads and plays just fine.
Hopefully, I said all that in a way that makes sense.
If so, do you agree that the files and directories are all properly referenced?  (I would think that Apple would know how to generate all this properly)
If forced to, I could customize the code in the writeMovie1() function so that it does an absolute reference to the movie as in:
/Midway_Full_Gospel/Media/MidwayService-Part1-6-10-12-mobile.m4v
But obviously, this is not desirable as I would have to fix this each time I made a change to the page.

  • You tube is fine but Video from other sites will not play in any browser all of a sudden. I have latest version of firefox (16.something) flash and all plug in

    I cannot play videos from many sites. Everything was fine up until a few days aago. You tube works fine but others will not. I have firefox 16.something and latest versions of flash. All plug ins are there and enabled. Have read through many support threads and nothing is working. This happens on chrome and ie as well.

    You can check for problems caused by recent Flash updates and try these:
    *disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
    *disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • Videos won't play in any browser

    Just recently, videos won't play in any browser...Safari, Firefox. etc. It seems to happen with .wmv files. I reinstalled media player, but still have the problem.
    I get this message.
    "Cannot open the file. Verify that the path and filename are correct and try again"

    First, check that Windows Media Player is set as the correct plug in - in Safari, go to help/installed plug ins. There should be a section marked 'Windows Media Player' showing 'application/x-mplayer2' and listing wmv files (amongst others).
    Sometimes these arrors are caused by DNS failures. Ensure your system is fully up to date, and enter your ISP's DNS server IP addresses (usually two of them, sometimes three) in the 'DNS servers' box on the TCP page of the Network preference pane.
    The DNS server IPs are usually supplied with the ISP's initial set up documentation, or located on the ISP's help page.
    The reason it could be a problem is that in many iterations of MacOS X, the system is extremely sensitive to how quickly a DNS search responds. DNS is the process whereby a user-provided URL is converted into the correct IP address for internet lookup, so if the video source is held on a different server and the DNS process doesn't return a valid IP address in time, you would then get an error of the sort you describe.

  • My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.

  • Images on Tumblr and embeded videos won't show up

    The image/gif problem is only on Tumblr (as far as I saw), but it's as if the images weren't even there. (the way I see it, it only happens when I'm browsing through someone's tumblr, but when I enter a tag every picture showes, and on my dashboard as well). when I press reload, it reloads the entire site without the pictures. I tried a link on internet explorer and google chrome: it showed the pictures on IE, but not on GC. At first I thought it was because I didn't update firefox, but it showed up even after I updated everything (including adds-on). I also cleared my cookies and cache, and tried other things but nothing worked.
    Embedded videos won't show up anywhere.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions" or all domains via the about:permissions page
    *check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.image pref should be 1.
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • Videos not playing in any browser

    I've got a 2.6 Gig Macbook Pro Retina running 10.9.2.
    Videos aren't playing in any browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox). On youtube for example, the page will load, but the spinning wheel won't stop.
    I've tried restarting, uninstalling/reinstalling Flash, reinstalling browsers, repairing disk permissions, restarting my router/modem, but still nothing.
    Strangely, if I click an embedded youtube link, it will still sometimes work.

    hello vinay64, this is probably a problem in connection with the recent update of adobe's flash plugin (IE and chrome get supplied with a different variant of the plugin of adobe), please refer to the following article for common solutions: [[Flash 11.3 crashes or does not load in Firefox 13]]

  • Embedded videos won't play on any browser (youtube will, though)

    Hi all, I'm at my wits end.  I have a fairly new computer running Windows 7 64 bit OS.   The problem is with non-Youtube embedded videos.  Flash has been playing them only on IE up until today, now it won't work in any browser (including Chrome).  (Youtube seems to work fine, embedded or not)  As an example, when looking at Facebook, any embedded Youtube video plays just fine, but all other videos only give me the black rectangle of doom.  I've just spent three hours following all the instructions here:  I've uninstalled, reinstalled, deleted the registry key in these instructions.   I've disabled ad blocking and turned off my only antivirus program (Microsoft Security Essentials).  I've tried downloading Flash Player using every browser and both 32 and 64 bit versions of the browsers.  Nothing makes the embedded videos play.  The Flash version I have is 11.6.602.171 and the little movie with the ball going by the screen shows fine, and the correct OS is showing.  I'm baffled and out of ideas.  Thanks for any help!

    There must be some other people who have encountered this same problem.

  • IPod Touch videos won't show then crash and apps respond slow

    Here's the deal, I bought his iPod a couple months ago, 3rd generation 64GB and I could put videos on it fine and they would come up and I could play them, now since I updated it with 4.2 or 4.1 software from iTunes everything's running slower. My iPod takes longer to respond when I open an app or it just crashes and brings me back home. My video (standard) app won't even show any of my videos, it's just a white screen and then crashes. What happened and how do I fix it?

    I'm also having the same problem with the Videos app - interestingly enough, also with a 64GB 3rd Gen. Touch running 4.2.1 (build 8C148). Try to open Video app, it goes to white screen for a bit, then quits.
    Checked out another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12678404&#12678404) and experienced the same behaviors as well: temporarily works if you change languages; restoring as a new iPod does NOT fix issue; music videos seem to play fine (though it seems to repeat a video, rather than move on to the next); and all that.
    The more I read about it, the more this seems to be a glitch in iOS. Moreover, it seems to be related to music videos somehow. Seems that the Music Videos and regular moves aren't playing nice.
    While music videos do play in the Music app, that's not particularly convenient for me. Going off one of the posts in the above-mentioned thread, I'm going to tray a temporary fix of relabeling my "Music Videos" to "Movies". Seemed things went wrong when Music Videos entered the picture. While a work-around, for me it's a little more usable than the inverse.
    Will report back whether or not this temporary fix works until Apple can release an update addressing this problem.

  • Video won't show on my iPod

    I just bought my iPod yesterday. My other sister already has an iPod. We use separate computers. I took an MPEG-4 file from her playlist in her iTunes folder (in My Computer). And I copied it into mine. I put the file into a foler in My Computer and put it in my playlist. It told me that I had to authorize the file from my sisters account. So now her account is now authorized into 2 computers. I played the video and it shows in iTunes, but it doesn't show up on my iPod.
    My sister uses iTunes 6, and I use version 7. We both use Windows.
    Thanks in advance!

    EDIT: Oh and I almost forgot. When I play the "Video" it looks as if I'm playing an audio file instead. It just shows the cover art.

  • Video and audio not sync when i play all forms of video. from music videos, to tv shows. but they play perfect on my iPod. and tv shows display out of order on iPod, but in correct order on iTunes/computer. I even ran a virus check just to make sure.

    audio and video do not syncronize.  all forms of videos. music videos to tv shows.  what do i need to do the syncronize them again
    they are in sync on iPod, but not on computer.
    another issue that might be from the same cause is, the order of episodes of the tv shows i have downloaded,   they appear in order on computer, but on iPod they show out of order.
    any tips on how to fix this would very much help.
    thank you.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    An old version of iTunes will cause this and mess up the videos on your iPod. Always make sure you always use an up-to-date version of iTunes.
    Make sure all the software on your computer is up to date...
    iTunes
    iPod Updater
    Updating iPod's Software
    You will then need to restore the iPod and then let iTunes update your iPod and put your music, videos, etc. back onto your iPod...

  • HT4561 I have an iMac (2.66Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo) and recently updated to OSX10.6.8. At first things worked as before, but suddenly a bunch of applications are not working; including videos wont play in any browser, plus Skype and Logic Pro won't work

    Recently updated to osx10.6.8. Was fine at first, but now have problems with various applications freezing/hanging.
    These include Skype and Logic Pro.
    In addition, cannot play videos (including YouTube and BBC) on Firefox (my usual browser), Safari or Chrome.
    Application becomes frozen, and I eventually get an 'unresponsive script' message.
    With Firefox I have tried clearing the cache. My Flash is upto date.
    These are all the apps I use everyday, and this is driving me crazy. Can't seem to find answers on line. Very grateful for any help or advice.

  • Video won't show in ibook or pdf

    I have created a video to be placed within text in either an ibook or pdf. I have converted the video to MP4 and I can play the video in the PDF. When I load the PDF to iTunes and sync with the iPad, the movie disappears. Any thoughts?

    The iBooks app probbaly doesn't recognise embedded media in pdf.
    Can you try it out in the App called Goodreader, as that is far more capable, than the simple built in facilities.

  • Video won't show in timeline

    During editing, all of a sudden my video won't display in the viewer. You can scrub across your timeline and hear audio but can't see any video. If you move a clip around, the video comes back, for a while anyway and then does it again.
    Any ideas?

    what do you mean by WAB?
    Sorry about that, WAB = Work Area Bar. That is the little gray area on the Timeline Ruler. It has two "brackets," one on each end, plus a little "box" in the middle. It is used for several functions, including limiting what portion of a Timeline one would Render, or Export (in most formats). I should NOT affect display at all, but let's rule it out of the way early.
    On the PC, go to the mfgr's. Web site for your video card. Plug in your card's model and your exact OS. Check to see if you have their latest video driver installed. If not, download and install the latest. Do check the installation instructions, and follow those. They are usually just an un-ZIP, and install over the old one, but it can change.
    Good luck,
