Save this to the desk top, do not install it from a temporary folder.

Click on it to run and after it's finished installing restart your laptop and try a Blu-ray.
You may also have to disable your firewall and anti-virus software during the download and installation.

ITunes 11.1 wont play my movies!

11.1 wont play my movies. It will crash when trying to play them. Some movies play but when you stop playing them iTunes 11.1 then crashes.
The same is happening on my iPad upgraded to iOS 7. Movies won't play. They just quit.

Hi,
same problem here, but I noticed that store bought movies work, unless of course they tell you they need quicktime which is not supported, which happens to me on Startrek on my iMac, but the movie plays fine on my MacBookPro. Both run iTunes 11.1.3 under 10.9

You must have started it by accident.

Quicktime wont play my movie

quicktime wont play my video cd's. when i drag and drop... it says there is an error opening it up.

Quicktime has it's limitations and can't, natively, play certain video formats.
Try VLC. It should be able to play anything you throw at it.

Quicktime wont play my movies....

I recently downloaded the uprgrades for quicktime, but now when I visit websites and I save the .mpeg formats to my comp, when I go to open the movie I get a message that quicktime cant read the file and leaves a number(-2048). How do I continue to download and watch my movies???

To identify the file*, video and audio** format of a movie or sound file:
QuickTime Player:
Open the file
Window menu > Show movie info
Look in the Format: field
**Note that recently someone posted in the forum that QuickTime Player failed to display any audio information for a file which did play with audio (A52) in VLC.
MPlayer OSX:
Show the playlist window if it isn't already visible.
Drag the movie file into the playlist window.
Select the movie in the list
Click the "i" button for info
VLC:
Open the movie in VLC
Window menu > Info
Click the black triangles so that they point down
*Note that VLC does not display the file format, only the format of the content (audio and video) within the file. A file ending in .divx for instance, is probably in actuality an avi file but VLC doesn't show that information - MPlayer will and QuickTime Player will - if - QuickTime Player will open the file to begin with.

MY QUICKTIME IN LEPORD WONT PLAY ANY MOVIES

I HAVE CLIPS THAT USETO OPEN WITH OLD QUICK TIME BEFORE UPGRADE TO SNOW LEPORD AND NOW NOTHING OPENS UP IT JUST SAYS MOVIE LOADING AND IT WILL SIT THERE NEED HELP

You may be correct.
I am posting the following for general information:
The following only applies to those running Tiger or Leopard:
If you are experiencing trouble viewing QuickTime movies with QuickTime Player or the QuickTime browser-plug-in follow the steps in the link below to ensure that QuickTime is properly installed on your Mac
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/troubleshooting/
If you having problems watching WWDC Keynotes, tutorials or Trailers on the Apple website, check your Quicktime Player 7 settings in System Preferences:
Under Streaming, set for Automatic, enable Instant On and Play Immediately.
Under Advanced, click Mime Settings and ensure that Streaming (both kinds) are enabled.
(Note that if you are running Snow Leopard you should be using Quicktime Player 7 and not Quicktime 10.) Snow Leopard does not have a QuickTime System Preference pane. No MIME Settings options. No streaming settings. If a User has migrated from 10.5.8 then those settings have moved over (but no changes can be made). QuickTime Player 7 is in your Applications/Utilities folder (if you've got it installed). If not you can install it from the Snow Leopard DVD (Optional Installs).

Apple TV (3rd gen)wont play purchased movies

Having an issue with playing my purchased movies. The issue is that I click play on the movie I want and the gray circle shows like its loading then it reverts back to the play screen again. I have reset it to factory and after 8 minutes or so when it comes up it allows me to play and watch 1 movie. After I stop the movie or try to go into a different movie it no longer works and I have the same issue again. I have checked my firewall and my Avg they are not the issue. I have reset my Internet and the same problem continues. Air play, HBO to go, Netflix all work no issues.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Same problem -- click play, changes to "loading screen" for a few seconds, then flashes back to the "play" screen. I also can't purchase other movies. The first two times I tried, the "are you sure purchase buttons" screen, click it and it flashes back to the movie not screen. Just now, I tried again after restarting, It got me to a screen that required my security code for my credit card. After I put it in, it said I'd have to go to iTunes to finish the authorization. The first time I tried through my iTunes account, it said the service wasn't available. The second time, it let me enter the numbers. Now, back to the Apple TV, again, it wants the security code again. Several attempts failed.
Now, trying to download a free iphone game: iTunes story is temporarily unavailable.
I'm persistant.
Added:
Apple TV is running 6.0.
Netflix plays fine.
Music (itunes match) plays fine.

HT3642 HOW DO I PLAY DIGITAL MOVIES I DOWNLOADED FROM ITUNES ON MY NON APPLE SMART PHONE? I HAVE TRIED TO CLICK COPY AND PASTE & I'VE TRIED TO DRAG AND DROP TO A SD CARD AND IT SHOWS ITS ON THERE BUT IT I WON'T PLAY. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

HOW DO I COPY AND GET IT TO PLAY ON A SMART PHONE FROM A SD CARD? IT SHOWS IT ON THE CARD BUT IT WON'T PLAY. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

You cannot. Those will be DRM locked to Apple authorized products. Since you cannot authorize you non-Apple smart phone in iTunes, you cannot play iTunes DRM locked content on it.

My itunes wont play the movie ive rented it just comes up with a black screen why?

cccc

We have the same problem. Just tried to watch Prometheus rented from itune store. Only got a blank, black screen with no sound. The movie counter counted up but nothing showed on the screen. First rental for us did we do something wrong?

My itunes wont play any movies ive purchased, just crashes it, what will stop this?

ive reinstalled twice and keeps happening.

The same thing happened to me! I was so fustrated. Finally, I found an answer. First, go to QuickTime. Then click Edit> Prefrences> QuickTime Prefrences. Go to the Audio tab, then click the button that says "Select Audio Playback and Recording Devices." A window should come up, and click on the box that says "Speakers/Headphones." Then click "Set Default." Do the same with the box below, then exit QuickTime. When you open iTunes again, you should be able to play music. Hope I helped!

Hd movies wont play

trying to play hd movie. iTunes used to play it. now I get a message saying "wont play hd movie. need an attachment to your device" what is going on?

Hi eas21,
Did something change on your computer? Is this the same hd movie that used to play?
The message makes me wonder if everything supports HDCP.
iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos - Apple Support
Windows system requirements for HD 1080p1 content
32 or 64-bit version of Windows 7 or Windows 8; Windows XP and Vista don't support HDCP
iTunes 10.6 or later
2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor
At least 2 GB of RAM
A video driver that supports HDCP, such as an Intel GMA X4500HD, ATI Radeon HD 2400, Nvidia GeForce 8300 GS, or better (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 1280 x 800 or higher with a digital connection (DVI, DisplayPort, or HDMI)
If your computer doesn't meet all of the above requirements, you will be unable to view HD 1080p content from the iTunes Store.
Take care,
Nubz

QuickTime wont play .mov file

Does anyone know why QuickTime wont play a .mov file from an iLearn 08 training DVD. It would not import into iMovie, which is what the file was for, iMovie training. When I try to play it tells me that QuickTime does not have the software to play the clip then directs me to the quick time components page. The file has a 1920X1080 dimension and it has a HDV 1080i60, Integer (Big Endian) codec. I have downloaded various codec packages for quicktime such as flip4mac, perian, etc. Can any one help me out?

Hi,
I actually did contact the publisher and they were very helpful. Here is a copy of the email they sent me. It should solve your problem. Good luck!
Thank you for contacting Peachpit Press. We apologize for the errors with
these files. The QuickTime clips used in chapters 5 and 6 were encoded by
the author using the HDV 1080i60 codec. iMovie 08 only works with the 1080i
codec. At the time this book shipped, iMovie 08 was not available for
testing.
New files are available at peachpit.com here:

Click on the Updates tab and the page will refresh, showing you the
