IPhoto to my Macbook Pro (old version) won't let me play the video clips more (it was). They are mostly of clips to iPhone. When I try to open them I get a dark white page with an error message:
"Error OSStatus-54".
Someone has seen this and someone has suggestions on how to fix it?
It's so frustrating because with most of these clips, that is the only place where I stored them - some clips I get from family members as well... (In iPhoto, I see a picture of the first frame of the clip, but the clip does not play). Even when the new version of iPhoto appeared on my computer, my old version slept and I continued to use the old because I liked it is better (more familiar). The videos were still on the old version when I got the new version, but they stopped play several months ago. Help! Please? Thank you!
What version of iPhoto? The operating system?

Windows media Player library said that he corrupted how to fix this?
How can I fix my Media Player as it says I can't play some files as it is corrupt, I'm not very computer im still learning.i tried the troobleshooter but it is not solved the problem.
Hello
1. what operating system do you use?
Method1: I suggest you run the troubleshooter to library and check if that helps.
Open the troubleshooter in the Windows Media Player library
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-Windows-Media-Player-library-Troubleshooter
Method2: It would be possible that the files in the directory that stores Media Player may contain corrupted data. Go to the following directory and delete all the files in the folder. Test if the problem recurs.
%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Media Player
Note: Please save the contents of the directory first.
Method 3: Reinstall Windows Media Player
As a last resort, try to uninstall and reinstall Windows Media Player.
This version fixes most of the problems of corruption of Windows Media Player.
Note that uninstalling Windows Media Player 12 also disables Windows Media Center because WMC uses WMP12 to its operation.

Where can I get a codec for Windows Vista that can play mp4 files?
Using Windows Vista, I can't play a file video mp4 using Nero Showtime and some other video editing software. These programs show mp4 files using another computer with Windows 7. Where can I get a codec for Windows Vista that can play mp4 files? I don't want to install a codec pack that might ruin other programs and cause more problems than it solves. I need a codec mp4 approved by Microsoft that allows all my programs work on the Vista operating system
