Wmv file wont open

i see it on my desk- itunes isnt haven it, i changed wmv to mp3, what next ?

yes i am replying to myself in the form of a more precise question : i downloaded a music file from some bands website (not myspace)- it landed on my desktop calling itself " stolen_video-2.wmv" , upon dragging its file from desktop to itunes, it snaps back to desk- k- i get that so i change the tag from wmv to mp3 , it looks like it dissintegrates into itunes as it should, but then never shows itself,- when labeled aiff the apple suggests quicktime which states matter of factly that it cannot open... "end of file was reached
(-39)"- curiously Get Info lists file size for all 3 tags as 60kb

  • Avi or wmv files wont automatically save (tick box option is not selectable)

    avi or wmv files wont automatically save
    (tick box option is not selectable)
    i go to options
    and select SAVE as the default for .avi and .wmv
    FF always asks me what to do every time?
    if i click save, the tick box option for 'always do this' is not selectable ?
    How do i fix this so i can automatically download .avi and .wmv?
    ie ........i click a link ..........it downloads......like other file types

    Try this:
    It works for ALL types of files!
    # Save a small avi file on your harddisk
    # Open Firefox
    # Go to File | Open File ...
    # Go to the file location and select it
    # Click Open
    # Now you see the small window named Opening …
    # Click radio button Save
    # Tick box “Do this automatically for files like this from now on.

  • I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?

    I have recently updated my CC programs to the latest version (CC2014) and now all of my files wont open by default into their respective programs, only if I open the program and go to file>open and open the file from there. How can I fix this?
    I have tried 'Open with' and the version of the program now installed on my computer isn't even suggested as an option and when I browse for it, the file wont open with it anyway

    On Windows (don't know about Mac), the latest version will always take over the file association, and become the default for indd files. It's impossible to change it.
    But there is a plugin for ID that makes this possible. Never tried it myself.

  • Need help badly. project file wont open. saying damaged file or may contain outdated elements. please help

    project file wont open. damaged file or contains outdated elements message. i believe its an XML error but i dont know how to fix it. please help

    As a happy user of the Matrox RT.X2 for many years, and later an equally happy user of a Matrox MXO2, I can say from experience that it is highly unlikely that this problem has anything to do with the Matrox hardware!
    Can you open a new blank project, and save it?
    If you cannot import your faulty project into a new project, can you import the sequence from your faulty project?
    Have you tried clearing the Media Cache, clearing your preferences, etc. - all among the techniques used to resurrect a Premiere Pro project that has gone bad???

  • Quicktime file wont open in keynote

    hello,
    I have a quicktime (olderversion) i need to give to a friend who has Tiger with quicktime 7 and keynote.
    he wants to open the quicktime in keynote and use for a presentation.
    anyone know why it wont open in keynote??/

    Open the file (on your machine) using QuickTime Player. Open the Movie Info window and note the type of file format (.avi, .mpg etc.) and the sound and video codecs used.
    If you find third party codecs (Divx etc.) the Keynote user will need those codecs before they can view the file. Once it can be displayed using QT Keynote should also be able to import the file.

  • Pages Crashed, now file wont open

    I'm running Pages 2.0.2 on my G5 Dual 2.0 PPC, OS X 10.4.5
    Help!
    I was working on a 40-ish page document in Pages. I then duplicated the document on my hard drive and double clicked to open the duplicate. My plan was to scroll through the pages of the duplicate and update the page references in the index of the original document. I've done this before no problem.
    On this occassion Pages quit. Now the original document wont open and I fear I've lost everything! The progress bar nearly gets to the end and it looks like the document is going to open, then I get a message saying that Pages has quit. Everytime I try it, same message.
    I've repaired permissions - no joy. Also Pages works ok - all my other documents open no problem.
    Any suggestions? - The files in the document package appear to be named correctly as far as I can tell. I'm desperate to get the data back.

    Well it's taken me a whole day but I've got the entire text back...
    and formatted once more...
    and I've now ticked "back up previous version while saving" in the Pages
    preferences.
    ~I think I may have been living in a bubble since I moved from a PC about two years ago....got out of the habit of backing things up.
    OS X has only crashed once on me and everything has always just worked....
    This has been a bit of a wakeup call. - I've had apps quitting -
    Safari, Mail, DVD player, Final Cut Pro, Pages
    but never had file corruption (in fact the last time was on my Vic 20 in the '80s!!) ...until now.

  • Project file wont open

    Help.
    I cant open my Premiere Pro project files. After renaming some of the source files now Premiere says 'file format not supported'  when I try to open.  The same computer and program generated these files. I know I have to relink the media but any ideas why it wont open  the project files?

    Are these MPEG, or VOB's? If so, this Adobe KB Article might help.
    If they are M2t files, then this ARTICLE might help.
    If none of the above, please tell us the full details of your Assets and also you Project Presets.

  • When trying to download a wmv file it opens in safari instead.

    I have a mac. I had an old version of firefox and upgraded to 3.6.8.
    with my old version of firefox, when I download a wmv file from a site it would ask were to save, no with 3.6 it opens the file in safari.

    Go to ''Edit'' -> ''Preferences''. If that option doesn't appear, it might be under ''Tools'' -> ''Options''. Once that window is open, click on ''Applications'' and scroll down to ''WMV'' or ''WMV Video'' or something along those lines. Click the text in the ''Action'' column once to select it, then again to open the dropdown list. Change it to ''Save File''.
    That should do it!

  • My raw files wont open in pse8 or dng 6.4, why not?

    hi all,
    I've got a sony 580 and I cant get my raw files to open in either pse 8 or dng 6.4.
    I've updated the camera raw plug-in to 6.2.0.29, which i understand does not have support for the 580.
    But the troubleshoot says to try dng  instead which does list the 580 in its supported cameras.
    any ideas why it wont work.
    incidentally i find it very sharp practice for adobe to not support a major manufacturers raw files in a piece of software that's really not that old. (even if its not the mosr recent version of pse). I would not have purchased it if i knew i would have to upgrade every time i changed the camera body i'm using

    thanks for the reply noel,
    the camera body and pse8 were purchased a couple of months apart, so not really intending to replace either anytime soon......
    my issue with it not working is mainly frustration i guess.... having spent a lot of money on the camera i did hope that the industry leading photoediting software (albeit the cut-down version) would work with it without any problems. I'm very happy with pse's performance once i can actually open a file lol
    When i go to the folder where i have the raw files stored and try to open with dng it doesn't show any files. (yes they are definitely in there, they can be seen fine in windows explorer, and picasa will quite happily open them)
    the version of dng is 6.4.0.139
    the source folder says ' no items match your search ' when i select it

  • Raw file wont open

    adobe photoshop elements 11 wont open my raw files taken on my canon eos 70D. i have updated my soft ware and checked raw file , i have version 7.4.0.137.
    thanks stew.p

    See that faq:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1030798?tstart=0
    The 70D requires the ACR 8.2 version, which can't be installed in PSE11.
    Your choice :
    - upgrade to PSE12, provided you are not on XP or Vista, then update the ACR module from 8.0 to 8.2 by using the help menu, update.
    - use the free Adobe DNG converter to batch convert whole folders of raw files to the DNG format that PSE11 can read
    - Use the Canon software to convert to tiff and edit in the PSE editor.

  • .wmv files now open with premier

    Hi:
    I have CS2. Just in the last week, any .wmv file that I download now wants to open with Premier! Of course, I have to start a new project and when I do, there isn;'t any file to open. I have looked in the download manager and it is downloaded, ready to play, but premier can't import it. Media Player can't find it either. I have unchecked the file types with MP and then re linked them, no luck. I think MS did an update, but I haven't changed any file associations with premier or QT or any other player. Anyone else having this problem or heard of it? I have looked online and can't find anything relating to this. it is very frustrating not to be able to look at amy .wmv files. TIA

    You need to change the file association for.wmv.

  • Itunes file wont open

    so im trying to install itunes to my computer and when i enter my email adress to download it.the file doesnt open .i dont get it plizzz help .!!!!!!!!!

    OK-
    First, let's get your iTunes open.
    Click on Start, Click on Run
    Type msconfig
    Click on the startup tab (last one on the right)
    Click on "disable all"
    Click apply, then click close
    Go ahead and restart your computer when prompted to do so
    When your computer starts back up, you should be able to open up your iTunes. When it opens, close it again. Now that we know it is able to open, it needs to be closed in order to resolve the file folder with exclamation point error.
    Now, let's get that file folder issue resolved.
    Click start, click all programs, click iPod, click iPod updater, click iPod updater (again)
    Click OK when you see the dialogue that tells you what the application's capabilities are
    Connect your iPod when it tells you to
    Click on the "restore" button when it becomes available
    IF the restore button does not become available, and if the iPod updater fails to recognize the iPod, disconnect it. Reset the iPod by (making sure the hold switch is off) pressing the menu button and the select button at the same time for about 10 seconds, until you get the Apple logo. As soon as you get the Apple logo, hold down the select button and the play/pause button together until you get a check mark on the screen. You may have to try this several times to get it to work... and sometimes it helps to lay the iPod down on a hard flat surface, like a table or your computer desk.
    Once you get the iPod into disk mode, you can go ahead and try to restore it again. (Start > All Programs > iPod > iPod Updater > iPod Udpater) Click OK, Connect your iPod when it asks you to do so, and then click the restore button when it becomes available.
    If you're still having issues, try reading through some of the following articles:

  • Migrated files wont open or error msg

    I used migration asst to migrate files from Imac power pcG3 (OS 10.3.9 and classic 9.2.2 installed) to my new imac G5 intel. I selected " move files and folders only" but everything migrated. When i try to open old files, some open, others give msg " this file is locked or in use. Would you like to open a copy?". These are appleworks WP files. when i try to move any migrated file to the trash, i get msg "finder requires you to type your password".
    I installed office:mac 2004 on new computer. since migration, it hangs up, cant close documents, have to force quit.
    G5 intel   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Did you set the same username/password combo you used on the old iMac on the new iMac? If not, those belong to the old user, which should be available on the new machine, and not the new user, that's why you need to authenticate to trash them. Since you just got the new machine, you might consider restoring the new machine to the factory condition, using the same username/password combo on the old one, if you still have the old iMac, and using the Migration Assistant again.
    As for the AW files, did you create them using the OS 9 version? Since the Intel-Macs can't run classic, you're probably out of luck opening them. If you still have the old iMac, you should open the AW files with the OS X version 6.2.8, convert them, and copy them over to the new machine. Then try to open them with the OS X version.

  • Idml file wont open

    I can't get this file to open it says that there's a missing plug in .It was saved from cs6 as an idml file but now I can't get that to open. It doesn't say what plug in is missing either for me to try and figure it out? Any suggestions? I tried opening in CS3, cs5.5 cs6 and cs7 and got the same error.

    did anyone resolve this issue?
    I am using CC indesign and saving files to IDML.
    When i try to reopen that file with CC indesign, the software freezes and pretty much crashes.
    Opening it with CS6, there is no issues.
    What doesnt make any sense is that when i am saving with CC, i assume i should be able to reopen it with CC.
    but it does not allow me to do so.
    Does anyone know the cause?
    I can only find information of the opposite of what i am asking. So i assume i am the only one having this stupid issue.
    I am unable to contact adobe myself, if someone could please help me resolve this issue!
    Thanks
