Applications :: IMovie HD - "Missing HD Quicktime Component"
Nov 14, 2006
I'm trying to get iMovie HD running on a Mac here as a matter of urgency. However, I get the above error message when i try to launch it. Its really important I get it up and running today, but I don't have the Install disks for Tiger here at the moment. All I have access to is another Mac with a working install of iMovie on it.
Does anyone know if there's a hidden directory or the like that might have these components stored in it? I've copied across the Quicktime directory from Library, but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.
I bought & downloaded MPEG2 QT component in order to use for editing video from a DVD with home movies that had been converted from tapes. When I put on computer it was .cdr which could not be used in iMovie. I need to convert to one that will work. I also got MPEG Streamclip, both on advice from a forum discussion. where did it go on my computer? I have searched with Spotlight & it wasn't found.
Info: MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2), files from Windows XP PC
I purchased a new MacBook Pro. Reinstalled all my applications from my MacBook. But for MPEG Streamclip, it is asking for The Apple QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component, which I bought back in 2009. The Apple Store isn't letting me download it again so I need to find the .dmg on my old MacBook. What is the filename?Â
I recently got a new macbook it's running OSX 10.7 Lion, but im unable to run programs because of the MPEG-2 Codec being missing. I was informed this Codec came with Lion?
I have several Mac computer in my office and I have a problem to see my .mov files in them all. I think there is a component problem for quicktime, but I don't know why other third party application are not working with them. Especially My iMac can not show the File
I am using a Mac Book Pro with Snow Leopard in it. I used to have Export to FLV in my Quicktime earlier but i cant find it now after i upgraded to Snow Leopard. How can i find it ?How can i export FLV from MPEG Streamclip?
I can't export a certain project to QuickTime in iMovie, but I can export it to other formats. The iMovie error message is: The movie could not be exported because an error occurred. (Error = -5000)
What's strange is that I was exporting this project to QuickTime yesterday, made some changes and tried to export again, and no luck? Yet it'll export to mv4 etc. I repaired permissions etc, and still no luck. I'm assuming it's related to permissions, but I have no idea where to start.
i searched for this, but i didnt get anything useful...imovie doesnt open quicktime movies...but i need a software that can convert a QUICKTIME MOVIE to mp4 or youtube formats.
My hard drive crashed and corrupted some of my iMovie MOVs. When launching iMovie, I get a series of alerts (attached image). I'm trying to find what is making iMovie look for these files so I can clear out the reference. I tried searching for the file name and nothing comes up. I already know the file is missing, I'd just like iMove to stop looking for it.
I edited a screen recording video (shot with QuickTime) with iMovie. Added chapters but when EXPORT - USE QUICKTIME and set properites to HD format, once done (5 hours) chapters are not available in Quicktime. I read that when exporting to tiny video format, chapters are not available but here I' exportin to an HD format. Â
Alright so I was making this video that was really really really difficult to do and I got to like 3:00 of it today and I've been saving, then it just freezes and refuses to do anything. I then realise my external drive somehow turned off for a random reason, so I plugged it back in and it started working again, but then I reopened my project and I get this error
I click on ignore all and it's all in the trash, and what really pisses me off about this is that it took me weeks and weeks and weeks of time to do, there's no way I can redo this all over again. What can I do to get rid of the skipped message and make it all work again�
I have encountered a problem when downloading movie clips from my Canon Legria FS200 camcorder. I have only recently started importing clips from my camcorder, I was until recently a PC user.The first time I imported clips everything was fine, both video and audio together were imported without any issues.I have since tried on 4 separate times importing clips since and the video is fine but the audio is missing, I have not changed anything on the camcorder or in the iMovie app.
I'm having a problem viewing some .mov files due to a missing codec. A contractor delivered me video content from a recent event on an external hard drive. The files he sent me are .mov files that he exported from Final Cut Pro using a DVCPRO HD (720p60), linear PCM, Timecode codec. I want to be able to view these files through Quicktime on my machine, but I don't use FCP. I tried installing the Apple prores decoder, as another thread here seemed to indicate this might solve my issue, but when I ran the installer, it said a newer version fo the decoder was already installed on my machine. Is there any straightforward way to download/install the codec I need to view these files without shelling out for FCP?
Recently I noticed that ALL of the audio from an entire folder of .mov files has disappeared. Video playback is fine. I tried to export from Quicktime to experiemtn but it suggests that the file is corrupt and can't be exported...but all of them? Files are being kept on external drive. Could Lion be causing this somehow?
I've just upgraded to Mavericks from Lion. I find that iPhoto, iMovie and iDVD are all missing in the new OS. Can I restore them from my Time Machine backups? If I do, will they work with Mavericks?
Info: iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4), MacBook Pro 2.2ghz i7
I am using Quicktime Player 10.1 on my MacBook Pro running Lion. I need to be able to adjust the brightness, contrast, colour and speed of the movie file which is palying as a loop. There are no AV controls in 10.1 is there a way round this? I wondered about using Dark Adapted software to correct the visual elements. Or is there another software which might do this or an alternative software to Quicktime to play movies and adjust visual appearance. It is being used as part of an art installation and video work and this type of control is the best option for me. Is it possible to run an earlier version of Quicktime which has the AV controls if I partition my drive and install Leopard or Snow Leopard so that I can run these files as required on my laptop when used within the installation. If I can partition the drive, is it possible to partition the driive without losing eevrything which is currently running on my machine?
My Macbook Pro (Mid 2010 model, Purchase Dec 2010) was running slow recently. So I formatted the drive using Disc Utility and Re-installed OSX Mavericks.Â
I used the same Apple ID that was running on the system and product is also registered under this ID.Â
However, default softwares such as iMovie, iPhoto etc are missing from the system. I have re-tried but to no avail.Â
My OSX is Lion, (10.7.4) but the Quicktime support for MPEG-2 format is missing. When I look in the Quicktime system library there is QuicktimeMPEG.component & QuicktimeMPEG4.component, but no QuicktimeMPEG2.component. So, I presume its not there. How do I fix this? Do I have to re-install something? I had Quicktime 10.1 on my system, but have now also installed Quicktime 7.6.6. I need to work with some MPEG-2 videos & convert them to MPEG-4 format. I gather I can do this with MPEG Streamclip, but not if MPEG-2 support is missing!

I have a very old purple iMac, circa 2000, with an old version of iMovie. I copied the files onto a USB and tried to open/import them onto my new Intel Core 2 Duo, 3.06 GHz iMac. However my new iMac with iMovie '09 won't recognise the files when I try to import them. They stay greyed, not allowing me to import them.
I have a project file that was created using iMovie 5 HD. In this project file were a large number of unused clips and also the final film, edited with transitions, backing music, end credits, etc.
However when I import this project file into iMovie 8 I cannot find the final edited film anywhere, just all the clips that were both used and unused within the project file.
How can I get the final film back without spending about a week re-editing everything?
So i've recently gotten in the uploading to YouTube craze with my Flip Mino HD but i'm not too happy at the way i've been doing this and am hoping there is an easier way.
As of late i've been importing what i film into iMovie. In iMovie i'll edit the video to my liking. In iMovie i'll "export" to the media browser so it'll show up in GarageBand. Then i'll open GarageBand and edit my film further, dealing with sound; adding music. After that i'll export it as a .MOV to my desktop. Then i'll open iMovie again and import that .MOV file and from there in iMovie will have it upload to YouTube in its original HD format.
