I have downloaded the Quick Time Player and am still having trouble getting this movie to play. What do I need to do to fix this problem? I am showing this  movie to my class at 2:00pm

    Doublechecking. You're getting the error message described in the document you asked a question from? Or is something a bit different going on?

    I have the same problem too.  What is the solution?  I went from Windows Vista to WIndows 7 & now the movies I used to watch on my iPad no longer are compatible.  I purchased these movies specifically to watch them on my iPad & they no longer work.  I have unstalled & reinstalled  Quicktime till I'm blue in the face & my movies will no longer play on my iPad no matter what I try.  This is very frustating as I feel like I've wasted too much money on movies that I can't watch.

     

    Here is the message I'm receiving:

    If anyone has a solution, please let me know.

    Just found that I had to go into my files & right-click on the QuickTimePlayer file, then choose "run as administrator" to get this to work.

     

    Thanks!
