Web probroms for pc's downloading .mov from web

Hi I'm trying to download .mov files off of the internet and the information line says that it is downloading however when it is done nothing happens. Do I need to try a different extension on my webpage like .flv so my pc will read it? Help

Welcome to the discussions!
I suppose you already have Quick Time for Windows, ( if not you can download it for free by pressing the Quick Time tab from a pc and using the download option. ) When the cursor in the movie pane reaches the end, you can ctrl-click the triangle in the end and choose "Save as". Otherwise it is saved in the destination you provided as all other downloads.

  • How to download movies from web with Quicktime Pro

    How do I download movies to my harddrive from youtube and google video. Have quicktime pro, but I don't see down arrow when I watch a movie on the web. There is gotta be a way to this for a Mac. Somebody explain it to me, please....

    Quicktime can't download videos from youtube. Youtube videos aren't quicktime videos they are flash flv's videos.
    There's a few ways to download youtube videos:
    Wail you have the youtube page open that has a video you want to download you open Safari's activity window and look for the flv's url (usually the largest file). Copy that url into Safari's download manager...
    Or a much simpler way is to download MPEG-Streamclip, free. Copy the url of the youtube page into MPEG-Streamclip "Get URL" done...faster. You can either download the flv or mpg-4 (better quality than the flv) video from youtube using MPEG-streamclip.
    Here's M{EG-Streammclip down page http://www.squared5.com/
    As for Goggle there a download button on the right hand side of the Google web page.

  • "Check for Updates" vs Download iTunes from web

    Hello collective wisdom!
    I think my question should be easy to answer. I'm helping my mom fix an issue with her computer in CA, but I'm in SD so there's only so much I can do.
    She's trying to install some books on her iPad and iPhone via iTunes on her PC. She has iTunes 8, but needs a more recent version. When she runs "Check for Updates" in iTunes, she gets the error that the iTunes server could not be contacted. I have already trouble shooted this error, but we cannot fix it because she does not know her admin password. My dad purchased the computer for her at Best Buy, which is two hours from where they live, and she doesn't want to pay $30 to have them fix it anyway. (I think the computer is running Win7, but it may be Vista.)
    I could figure this out if I were there, but I probably won't be back in CA for at least a couple years. My question is simple... Will installing iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ over her existing install fix the problem? If yes, will her music library be intact on the new install?
    Thanks a bunch!
    Paul

    Hmm, the folder C:\Users\Public\Desktop should already exist, though if you look for it then you will probably see C:\Users\Public\Public Desktop in the same way that Documents in one profile can be shown as Steve's Documents in another.
    Locate the Public Desktop folder, right-click and select Properties, select the Security tab, tap the Edit button and grant Everyone and SYSTEM full control. Use the Add button if needed to add the Everyone or SYSTEM entries, click OK when done.
    Try installing again.

  • How to download movies from iTunes.

    Hi I'm a new user of iTunes and would like to know how to download movies. from the iTunes store.

    Create an iTunes account and go shopping. It is best to use the 'Shopping Cart' feature that way you can delete items from the cart before buying in case you change your mind.
    Once you are done shopping then 'buy' the cart and once the purchase process is completed then the d/l will begin.
    You can go to this page and select the 'New User' link for more info http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/

  • HT1491 Downloaded movie from Itunes onto Ipad, when tried to watch it would not start

    Downloaded movie from Itunes onto Ipad, when tried to watch it would not open and start.

    From iTunes on the iPad or from iTunes on your computer? BTW, you are trying to watch the movie in the videos app, correct?
    if you synced the movie to the iPad, delete it and sync it again. Tap the Edit Button in the Movies tab of the Videos app and then tap the X on the movie icon to delete it. Then sync it again.
    if you downloaded it directly to the iPad, close the videos app completely, reboot the iPad and then try again.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Downloading movies from Netflix

    I have a Netflix service and would like to download to my Tivo.  I have signed in all the right places and when I try the process Netflix says its downloading but the picture turns gray and nothing happens.  Does anyone know what the problem is?  Verizon tech support doesn't know and suggests I buy their premium service.

    that is not true i have a 1.5mbps speed dsl and i get fine picture quality. but then again i have a hd gpu. so it might be because of that.
    but i hardly every have any problems watching movies on netflix.
    i even have a ps3 and not much problems downloading movies from there either. or online play so i guess it might be the wires that are your problem
     That is good to hear. I based my post on information read online regarding required bandwidth for streaming video. Perhaps the technology has improved. Yes PC hardware could be a big factor when handling compression. In the past when I had DSL at 1.5 the compression artifacts where just unacceptable.

  • Downloading movie from Tivo/

    I got the av plug from Creative. Can I connect it to the tv and download movies from my tv to my Zen M? If so, how do I do it. I am leaving for a trip and would like to put the movie on my player. Thanks

    The Zen M doesn't doesn't actually record using the video cable, just outputs video. If you have a Tivo 2 you might want to check out the Tivo Desktop software for windows.
    It should allow you to get content off of your TV and transcode it to put on your Zen M. http://www.tivo.com/4.9.4.-2.asp?It requires a neworked Tivo 2 unit to work, have a friend using it and it seems pretty cool.

  • How download videos from web?

    Hello
    I would like to download videos from web, exactelly from facebook pages, but i'm not able, who can help me?

    If they are flash video then there a many flash video downloaders.  Do a search for "video download" on macupdate.com and you will find manu of them.
    Many are specific to downloading youtube stuff.  Others are more general.  However, one of the most general (and overpriced) flash downloaders is Jaksta.
    If the videos aren't flash, that's more of a problem, and may be specific to the kind of video it is and whether it can be downloaded.  Some sites protect against this being done.

  • Is it possible to download movies from iTunes???

    I was wondering if it was possible to download movies from iTunes to put on to your iPod, and burn to a disc. I have looked on iTunes and i can't find anything anywhere, however on the apple website there are images from films on iPods....so how do you do it????

    I believe the plan that was announced when the Movies were introduced was to roll them out to other stores sometime in 2007 which obviously didn't happen. The reason that stores for different countries have different content is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies, film companies, TV companies and other copyright holders. These are quite often completely different from country to country and therefore all require their own individual contract negotiations. The varying content is not imposed by Apple, who would have a much easier job if they only had to maintain one multi-national store and deal with one set of licensees.

  • Download movies from Itune

    who can tell me what is wrong with itune, everytime I download movies from Itune, the movie is very dark, the last one can barely see. What can be done , thanks

    Good point - current requirements for iTunes 9.x are:
    Macintosh Hardware
    Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5 or G4 processor
    Intel, PowerPC G5 or 1.0GHz PowerPC G4 or faster processor is required to play Standard Definition video from the iTunes Store
    2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor is required to play HD video, an iTunes LP, or iTunes Extras from the iTunes Store
    512MB of RAM; 1GB is required to play HD video, an iTunes LP, or iTunes Extras
    Screen resolution of 1024x768 or greater; 1280x800 or greater is required to play an iTunes LP or iTunes Extras
    Playing videos also requires at least 16MB of video RAM
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
    Apple combo drive or SuperDrive to create audio, MP3, or back-up CDs; some non-Apple CD-RW recorders may also work.
    Apple SuperDrive to back up your library to DVDs; some non-Apple DVD-RW drives may also work.

  • How can i download movies from my portable hard disk or usb to my Ipad2 ?

    how can i download movies from my portable hard disk or usb to my Ipad2 ?

    Import them into iTunes, then sync to your iPad. Movies may need to be converted to an iTunes compatible format. There are any number of utilities for that such as HandBrake 0.9.5.
    Please get the iPad iOS 4 user guide.

    why is downloading movies from the itunes store so slow?

    Hi there
    Many users seem to be experiencing this issue around the world (see thread  https://discussions.apple.com/message/16981332#16981332) - my iTunes dowload last night showed 7 hours ETA for a 45 minute tv show.  this morning I rebooted it and tried again, it is now taking 2 hours.  An improvement in theory but still terrible.  I don't know if it is internet connection but everything else I do on the internet seems to be running at normal pace.....
    Not much help sorry but at least you can see you are not alone
    Cheers

  • I have a sony handy cam model HDR-HC1 and a mac pro running osx10.9.3, are they compatible? as far as downloading movies from my handy cam. thanks in advance

    i have a sony handy cam model HDR-HC1 and a mac pro running osx10.9.3, are they compatible? as far as downloading movies from my handy cam. thanks in advance. If not, is there a different route i can take to get those recordings in to my mac pro?

    See if the cam shows up under Devices in the Image Capture app.
    Image Capture is located in your Applications folder.
    Launch Image Capture then connect the camera.
    The camera should show up under Devices top left side of the Image Capture window.
    Now look at the bottom left side of the window. Click the: Connecting this (device) opens: pop up menu and select an application to import your photos.
    You can also select a folder to import photos from the Import To: pop up menu.
    Selet the photos you want to import then click Import or Import All on the right.

  • Download movies from home sharing?

    I ripped most of my DVDs so I can play them through Apple TV, etc. I share them via iTunes using home sharing. However, I want to be able to download movies from that shared library directly to my iPad and/or iPhone so I have them when I travel. I read you could just 'drag' them to a different (say, local) library, but I do not see how to do that. I'm viewing the content in the shared library and can't find any way of copying that content anywhere.

    Thanks, but that is not my question. My question is whether I can transfer/download from home sharing.
