What MIME plug-in do I need?

Hello,
I'm a new Mac user so things are still a bit foggy.
I'm trying to open "what's on now" from a radio station but it gives me this message:
The page has content of MIME type “application/x-oleobject”.
Because you don’t have a plug-in installed for this MIME type, this content can’t be displayed.
How do I get what I need to be able to listen online?

You need Flip4Mac which replaces Microsloth's Windows Media Player. However, you don't mention which machine. IIRC, it's only for PPC machines. There's nothing comparable for ICBMs (Intel-chip-based Macs).
BTW, since you're a newcomer to the Mac, peruse Switching from Windows to Mac OS X and Basic Tutorials on using a Mac

  • What QuickTime plug-ins do I need?

    I have a Microsoft file format MP4S (which is apparently MPEG 4) that I need to open in QuickTime.
    Can anyone suggest what QuickTime Plug-In in necessary to open this file.
    Many Thanks
    Marv

    Thanks Colin & others,
    I finally resolved the issue.
    Here is a synopsis of the problem & the solution that worked for me. I should add this Forum (and several other friends who helped) never cease to be a wonderful source of ideas & support. Grateful thanks to them.
    The test file was 30 seconds of colour bars (PAL) recorded as HD 1080p and the file was encoded by a default Microsoft MPEG-4 format called MP4S with a resolution of 720x576.
    Ultimately I needed to be able to import the file into Final Cut Pro V.6 for editing & so the file needed to be transcoded into a QuickTime supported format.
    VLC was the only software I found capable of opening this file as QT would not. When I attempted to open it, a QuickTime dialogue box responded - This file is not a movie file.
    After a long search an application called VisualHub
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/visualhub.html
    offered the ability to transcode the existing format which was MP4S to H.264 (also MPEG-4). QuickTime was then able to open this new file & subsequently importing it into Final Cut Pro was made easy.
    I love happy endings. Thanks to all.
    Kind Regards,
    Marv

  • What plug in do I need to open files in virtual pc xp mode on windows 7?

    I am unable to open CS 2 In Design files in virtual pc xp
    mode on windows 7 - even tho it says I should be able to.
    It says under 'content manager' check for the right plug ins
    or upgrade to the latest version of in design.
    What plug in do I need?
    Or should I send windows 7 professional with xp mode back??

    More than likely these are CS3 or later files and the latest version you have installed is CS2. Without a newer icon handler from a more recent version, the CS2 icon will be displayed for anything newer than CS, and Windows itself has no clue that any version of ID other than the last one installed is associated with the file type.
    As Jongware points out, this is the typical error for trying to open a newer version file.

  • What codec or plug-in do I need to see audio

    What codec or plug-in do I need to see audio & video on .mov files in quicktime?

    OK, I will get it!
    This is where I went and it is unfortunate I have to go through this evry time:
    http://support.apple.com/downloads/#MPEG-2%20Video,%20Linear%20PCM,%20timecode
    QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5.3
    QuickTime Broadcaster features Support for broadcasting ISO-compliant MPEG -4 audio (AAC LC) and MPEG -4 video ( MPEG -4 Part 2 ) Instant VOD automatically saves the live broadcast to the hard drive and prepares it for streaming (creates hint tracks )
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL764
    too frustrating:
    downloaded the QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5.3 add-on and now get an error message that says I need to download something else here:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html?os=OSX&ctype=696d6463&c subtype=78647662
    ... but there are too many choices and I never know which one I need – CC, Divx, Xvid, ZyGo, Streambox, Autodesk ????

  • What plug in do i need for cs5 to open nikon 5200 raw files?

    What plug in do I need in cs5 to open Nikon 5200 raw files?

    There's no direct support for your camera in CS5.
    It would require ACR 7.3 or higher, which only work with CS6.
    You can download and run the free Adobe DNG Converter 7.4 to convert your raw Canon files to raw DNGs which you can then open in CS5.

  • Avi file  plug in for divx. what plug in do I need?.

    I have no sound in avi files and get a message that I need a plug in for divx. what plug in do I need?.

    I have both of these applications installed on my apple. Both the player and converter. I used MPEG Streamclip to convert a .mov file recorded on my iphone to an .avi file for playback on an internet website. After the file is converted there is no audio and I get an error message stating:
    "You may need an additional video decoder to play this file.
    This file contains a track in an unknown format (code ""). You may need to install a QuickTime™ component for this video format in order to play this file."
    I purchased the pro version of divx to see if this addressed the issue but it did not. I'm concerned the pro version of flip 4 mac will be the same at $30.00 more dollars. Is MPEG Streamclip the problem?

  • What  type of plug in do I need to use between weblogic and tomcat please

    Hi,
    Can anybody please tell me what type of plugin do I need to install to communicate between Tomcat4.0 and weblogic6.1 sp2.actually I wanted to use a connection pool from my servlet on my local tomact where connection pool is created on remote weblogic server.........?
    I have no idea what to do. I tried including the weblogic.jar in my local classpath where my tomcat is sitting. This didnot work . I got the following error......
    I want to know is it possible.............?
    javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Cannot instantiate class: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory [Root exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory]
    Your response is very inportant......
    Thnaks

    Thanks a lot for your rely....
    then how could I use the remote connection pool in my
    local Tomcat server.....?If thats is not possible then
    what if organisation have two webservers...? you mean
    thay have to create connection pool in two servers
    rather on one server and use it every where.....?
    Still depends on what you are trying to achieve.
    Most clustered systesm use a connections on each server. They sync the data retrieved between servers, not the connections themselves.
    If you simply one a single connection point then you need to use a driver that proxies requests to and from the real connection point.
    RmiJdbc is free at http://www.objectweb.org/.
    There are commercial drivers available, search at http://industry.java.sun.com/products/jdbc/drivers, which provide an enterprise layer for database access. They are probably more robust and feature rich than the above one.

  • I am moving to the UK, What kind of charger do I need?

    I have a MacBook I got in 2009. Im moving abroad in September and Im trying to figure out what kind of charger I will need. I know you can pop off the little plug part on the adapter, and I saw on amazon that I can buy an extension that fits onto the adapter with a UK head on it. Do you think this will work? Or am I going to have to buy a completely new charger? I hope not because the adapter head on Amazon is only like $10!!! Here is a link to the adapter head which I think might work http://www.amazon.co.uk/extension-power-Adapter-Charger-Macbook/dp/B004S6VIG2/re f=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1311011961&sr=8-3
    I guess Im just wondering if anyone else has had experience with this. I know the voltage in the UK is like 220 and in the Sates its only 110, and I obviously dont want to fry my computer or the adapter, so I just want to make sure Im doing the right thing!!!!!!!
    Thanks everyone!

    Thanks guys this is really helpful! Last time I was there I just used an adapter and ended up frying a few things haha so I think I'll get a cord instead!!! Yay, I love my Mac and would never want to hurt it haha, thank goodness they make things so easy

  • What type of screwdriver do I need to install AirPort/Bluetooth Card  A1126

    My airport extreme card was causing kernel panics, and I discovered one antenna wire was unplugged, but without unscrewing the card, I'm unable to plug the antenna back in. My question is what type of screwdriver do I need to unscrew the card? I have a 17" iMac G5 without the built in iSight and the layout is exactly like the one pictured in this DIY guide : http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG517inchharddrive.pdf
    Thanks for any help you can provide! :-D

    Thank you for the link, but they only list a DIY install guide for the original iMac G5. My airport/bluetooth card is very similar/almost exact to the card found in the iSight iMac G5s.
    My logic board layout looks exactly like this http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacg517inch_PowerSupply.pdf as opposed to http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG517inchAirPort.pdf where the airport card is much larger and doesn't require a special screwdriver for replacement. I'm not really in need of install instructions, but rather what specific screwdriver/allen wrench is needed to get the card off the board.
    thank you guys for any info you can provide...

  • I have a Late 2011 Mac Book Pro 17" and I want to install a Samsung 840 EV 2.5 1TB.  What accessories if any do I need?

    I have a Late 2011 Mac Book Pro 17" and I want to install a Samsung 840 EV 2.5 1TB.  What accessories if any do I need? I want to place my order once with all that is needed to install this equipment. 

    No you don't. All currently available commercial hard drives and SSDs have the same SATA connectors in the exact same place.
    As to being plug and play that is up to interpretation. The drive will plug into the cable but then you have to partition and format the drive for the Mac OS X operating system and then install OS X on it or restore from a Time Machine backup or Clone from your original drive to the SSD. Those things aren't necessarily Plug & Play. Not hard, just time consuming. Some more than the others.
