iPhoto video clip problem.
After upgrading iPhoto and upgrading to Mavericks my video clips will not play. This never was a problem before the upgrade. Any suggestions?

Have you still QuickTime Player 7 installed? If not, download it from the Apple Support Downloads page:
QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later

Thanks for your info Ieonie. I have Quick time installed. I think it may be my new camera.
When viewing old video clips from a different camera I was able to view the video. I moved the video clips on iPhoto 1taken with my new camera to my desktop and had the message " The document PA270405.MOV could not be opened. This media may be damaged." I could however open the video with Itunes but there is no sound. It looks as if it is a camera problem. If I stll have video on my card then I will try to load it again,

Do all videos from the new camera have the same problem? Then it could also be a problem of the card. If you have a different card, you could try to record another video for testing and check, if that will give better results.
Here is a list of videos, that are supposed to be supported by Aperture. Since iPhoto and Aperture share the same library format, I expect that iPhoto will also support them:
Aperture 3: About Video and Audio formats in Aperture
The list is not complete. Other cameras may be supported, but have a look at the codecs and formats. You will not be able to open arbitrary formats. ANd AVCHD video is not directly supported, see:
