iWeb Published Quicktime Movie Won't Play in Safari. Only Quicktime Logo Shows.

I created a movie using iMovie and, after publishing my movie, using iWeb, to my MobileMe account, I visit the site using Safari, and can only see the Quicktime logo instead of my movie. When I use Firefox to view the page I created, it shows fine. I'm all up to date on my software and OS.

Any help you can offer me? It seems like all the Apple pieces aren't working well together.

All my other published movies still work fine. It's just this most recently-published one that won't show correctly.

13, Mac OS X (10.7)

Clear Safari's cache (Command+Option+E) and reload the page. Does that fix it?

Thanks Old Toad, but that didn't solve the problem.

Hi Roddy. I did see that thread, but it's not really a solution, to hack it using all those other apps...for me anyway. It should work together like before. Is there a setting in Quicktime that may have changed, or a setting in Safari that I possibly need to change??

Hello to you all.

Translation excuse my English, I unfortunately can not do better. I have the same problem as you, I created a site for our travels in Brazil and I put videos on a page:

http://marc.rollmann.free.fr/marc.rollmann3/Cinema-Tropical.html

Avenida jazz, Jazz avenida2 and Muritiba.

They are compressed in H.264 .mov. Only one works well on my macbook leopard snow and air ipad ios8. The two other Jazz and Jazz2 run on iPad but not macbook. Sometimes I succeeded, but this is very rare. Can anyone tell me please what I should do or not do?

Thank you to you.

ps i have clear safari cache
