"This movie requires Quicktime" - cannot read TV shows

I have a lot of TV purchased through iTunes, which are now unplayable. See the subject line of the message.

  • First, I played those shows in this version of iTunes (12.3.3)
  • Secondly - if something is purchased through iTunes, why does not automatically upgrade or transfer it to the platform?
  • Thirdly, no mention of this before it happens.

I signed in and out and restarted iTunes, without result.

Please notify.

The official response from Apple seems to be to use QuickTime stand-alone player - If you see a message "this movie requires QuickTime" in iTunes - Apple Support -although I don't know how it will work with DRMd files. However the various threads on the subject suggest reopening iTunes in 32-bit mode (its 64-bit default mode does not have QuickTime):

"This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes."

iTunes won't play on Mac quicktime videos more.

To do this, close iTunes, locate its icon in the Finder, select the text and press command-i to open the Info Panel and check the "Open in 32-bit".

  • Update v5.0 error: cannot read the 'calendar' undefined property

    Hi, I have this type Eception error: cannot read property 'calendar' undefined after upgrade to version 5.0 the old version of the project works very well, no idea how to solve this problem?

    The new runtime environment has an internal variable called 'data' in the class of symbol. The code in this composition also uses .data to store some values user who modifies the internal state of the symbol at run time and translates into js errors. If you change the name of the data variable to tell _data, it should work. I have already done in the actions.js file, and enclose the copy update here. Please do a double check at the same time, it is used in many places, and I could have missed something that I don't understand the domain logic in the present code a lot.

  • Portable Satellite 1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require files avi (codec)

    my laptop satellite S1800-750 cannot read DVDs that require avi (codec) files. l have updated dvd drivers and upgrades of my multimedia player of series 10, but nothing helped. I need emergency aid.

    Hello

    I suggest, that it can not ONLY play .avi files. Am I wrong?
    In this case, you need additional codecs.
    This has nothing to do with the DVD drivers or firmware.
    Check the internet for the codec. I'm sure you will find a lot of info if you want to google a bit.

    Good luck

  • C00D11B1 error - cannot read this Type of file... even if she had been. Media Player W.

    Hello.

    As above, I now get the "C00D11B1" error code when you try to play MPG files out of my camera through Media Player.  It cannot read this type of file.  Unfortunately, for the past six years, he played identical videos taken out of this camera.

    Help on the Web sends me to a page that doesn't seem to be not applicable, with my sound card is the issue (it is perfectly functional, plays MP3s, etc.).  Media Player plays all the other files it usually plays (AVI, MP4).

    I checked with Windows Update, just as a thought.  Nothing has changed - not surprising.

    How can I fix?  I don't want to take just a blind shot to a system restore point.  I'm under the latest Windows 7, 32-bit, and nothing (including the MSE) Watch malware either.  Already tried MS Fix - It. He finds a couple of possible errors and I let correct... but nothing that has solved the problem.

    Thank you very much.

    Well, after trying dozens of solutions across Internet, try to use my Windows recovery disk and each system restore, I had?

    My solution was to reinstall Windows 7 completely.

    It worked.  If you can call the requirement of swatting a fly with a bazooka 'working '.
