Why can i not watch movie trailers in QT anymore?

Ever since I upgraded to SL and I go to Yahoo movies and want to watch a movie trailer Real Player opens up and plays. It was always in QT before. I have tried downloading the file too but it will not import. Any suggestions?

To check Safari's plugins go to Safari/Help/Installed Plugins
If Quicktime mappings are incorrect, open up System Preferences/Quicktime/Advanced
Click on the MIME Settings button.
In the next window that opens up make sure that all the boxes are enabled by clicking on the corresponding triangles so that they are pointed down.
This will show the “hidden” boxes especially the *Video-Quicktime Movie* box. This box will enable you to play movie trailers within your browser.
Click the OK button.
Make sure you have installed the latest versions of Flip4Mac, VLC Media Player, Perian and Adobe Flash Player.

  • Question:  why can i not watch movies?

    everytime i try to watch a movie the pop up says to download a adobe flash player. i try downloading this program and the popup says close internet explorer and that is where i cannot go any further i do not know how to close it...

    What is preventing you from closing Internet Explorer? 
    Here are a few ways to close it...
    - If you look at the window for Internet Explorer there is a small X in the upper right corner... clicking that will close Internet Explorer. 
    - If you right click the blue border area at the top and select Close, that will close Internet Explorer.
    - If you choose File -> Exit from the top menubar, that will close Internet Explorer

    Why can I not watch espn mobile on my ipad2

    You are using the app from the store, correct?  Read the description in the store, the app only works with certain providers, which are listed in the description.    As always, it's all about money and license agreements.

  • Why can I not drag music to my iPhone anymore - iTunes Match

    This is beyond a joke now. I cannot drag music onto my iPhone now.  Apparently I have to download the music from iCloud first.  It comes up with the message, "You must download items from iCloud beforeyou can copy them to your phone."
    The music is on my bloody hard drive, why do I need to download it? Just a joke.
    This is a frigging joke.  How can I turn iTunes Match off, I've had nothing but bloody trouble with it since I bought it last week.
    - Only about 60% of music is availble, I refuse to upload 8000 tracks, it will take months.
    - I can't drag and drop music anymore to iPhone
    - Why does it not match certain tracks off the same album 6/10 tracks from the same album, really?
    - 5000 tracks with errors, really?
    How do I turn it off and go back to normal?  Is my library knackered now, will I have to reimport all my music.
    So bloody annoyed with this.

    Well, I've solved the problem now, just about!!!
    What I did was followed most of the guidlines in the link you gave me and set the folder location for Itunes library to the D Drive where it was present. I then re-synced my music (which deleted everything and added everything back to my Iphone) and now it is letting me check the point "manually manage music and videos" without giving me the message so I have lost my playlists doing this and had a very frustrating time trying to sort this out but everything as far as I can see is now in place and I've kept my apps etc....
    Thanks very much for the link Peter, it did help!

  • Why can't you watch movies you rent instantly like Netflix it takes 3 hrs for iTunes rentals to start

    I just rented my first movie on my apple tv from iTunes and it said it would be 3 hours before I can watch the movie. What the heck is up with that and why dose it take that long for a movie to start? I also have netflix and it starts instantly so why dose iTunes take 3 freaking hours I mean really how convenient is that. My wife and I decided to try an iTunes rental to watch a movie and then learn it will be 3 hours before we can watch it. This is again a **** poor thought out apple service that should at least inform you of this BEFORE you rent the movie not AFTER you pay for the darn thing. This will be the last time I rent from your stupid iTunes movie rental service because it *****.

    Do you have?
    A video driver that supports HDCP (you may need to check with the manufacturer to determine if your video driver supports HDCP)
    A display that supports HDCP with a screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher with a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI)

  • Why can I not watch a video all the way thru without it stopping and starting, & freezing?

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

    Some have reported that increasing the session store saving interval worked for them.<br />

  • Why can I not download movies via iTunes?

    I have a Dutch account and I cannot find any movies to be downloaded in iTunes, although the Dutch support site says I can choose from a variety of movies...?

    Sorry, but Apple apparently has not been able to obtain the rights to sell movies in the Dutch iTunes Store, so they will not be available to you. If or when that will change, no one here can say.
    I don't read Dutch so I can't confirm what the Apple support pages say, but if they are specific to the Netherlands (many support pages are generic, so there may be a disclaimer somewhere on the page) and do indeed say that you can buy movies, that information is incorrect.
    Regards.

  • Why can I not watch the entie tv show series I have bought and paid for? This is **** up for iTunes to take my money and not deliver!!!

    I am VERY upset after spending a chunk of money for the entire series of Walking Dead on ******* itunes. I cannot watch any of the **** episodes but the first 30 seconds. How the **** can i get my money back and warn others of this rip off??  Being an Corporate Attorney, do I need to sue iTunes to get my money back??

  • Why can I not airplay movies and video to my apple TV.

    I have a 4S phone and even mirroring does not work.  I can, however, airplay play music from both my phone and computer.  Does my apple TV need to be hardwired with ethernet rather than wirelessly connected.

  • Why can't I watch movies from IMDb and Amazon, etc?

    I guess I need a "Flash Player" but how do I do that?

    Flash is an old media format often used on websites to show videos. The makers of Flash (Adobe) never made a version if it for iOS devices and have now abandoned all development of it for mobile devices because it is a security risk and not good for the battery life of mobile devices.
    A dedicated app is an app that is dedicated to a single service, company or website.
    Amazon and IMDB have apps in the AppStore. Search for them download them and use them instead of trying to use their websites.
    The blue question mark you see on some websites appears when the media you're trying to view is in a format not supported by the iPad (usually an older, non-mobile format such as Flash or Windows Media). Most websites use more modern video formats that work across all computers and mobile devices, some don't.
