Quicktime Plug-In Missing in Safari 9/El Capitan

Here is one I first came across...

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/blocked/p242

I did find others that suggested I either remove Flip4mac or upgrade to the latest version of Flip4mac [for a small fee]. Let me know if you need more and I'll see if I can dig it out.

I had this problem on my MacBook Pro that I've been using for years and moving the Quicktime files out from Disabled Plug-Ins worked for me. I assumed the problem had something to do with the various system upgrades, video codecs, and/or software I had installed onto that computer over the years. Just this week I got a brand new iMac and got the "Missing Plug-in" in Safari, and noted the 2 Quicktime files in the Disabled Plug-Ins folder. So, now I know that this problem has nothing to do with system upgrades, video codec installations, and/or other software. For whatever reason, by default the Quicktime plug-ins are disabled in Safari. I have no idea why, but am thankful for this thread and the solution it presents.

Hi all, thnx for sharing the issue with iWeb posting of QT pug in.

I've a question though ...

although this step solve on viewing the QT ( .mov) on m desktop does that means

all the viewers open our site have to take this step.

Simply, how do we know the rest of the viewers can have ease in viewing without the " missing plug-in" issue.

Should the file be converted to other formats or there's iWEB latest updated version can sole this "coding' auto magically?

Pls. see attached as advised by Apple.

Thanks all in advance.

I'm glad Apple has posted an announcement to web developers telling them how to update their websites, however how many web developers check Apple's discussion boards for suggestions on how to ensure their legacy websites are usable to Safari users? The websites I and my wife were having troubles with were online "lectures" for a nutrition class at a local community college. The nutrition instructors that made these sites are not web developers. Apple should make sure they are doing their best to keep compatibility with older sites too. It simply looks bad for Apple when there is a "Missing Plug-In" dialog for a Quicktime movie in Safari on a brand-new iMac. It is only made worse by the fact that when one clicks the dialog and tries to install the plugin, the user is taken to Apple's Quicktime website that goes on to say how Quicktime is included in OS X. It would make a lot more sense to link to a page that either fixes the issue for the user and/or states what changes need to be made to the website to update it.

Hello guys

I use the click to plugin- safari extension, which I love. It gives me the functionality to view a html5 video in the Quicktime player.

I use this functionality a lot. I am using El Capitan now, which disabled the quicktime webplugin. I normally need to select the quicktime webplugin in the safari webplugin settings to run in unsafe mode for the functionality to work. I tried the fix mentioned, moving the plugin back into internet plugins, but it still doesn't register in the settings list with plugins. Could some one help me out...?

Make sure you check the main system library and not the user library.

I found the both files in the disabled folder and moved them to the Plugin folder. Now I can see the plugin in Safari, but this is QuickTime Plug-in 7.7.3 and not 7.6.6 which I had installed (QuickTimePlayer7.6.6_SnowLeopard.dmg from Apple).

So I removed the plugin and reinstalled QT 7.6.6 but the Plugin didn't come back at all.

How can I get the 7.6.6 Plugin now?

Thanks

frank

I found this other post:

Re: Midi plug-in for OS 10.8.5?

where it is told, that the plugin for 7.6 is not that easy to install, I need it from an old Mac or could extract it from some downloads, but then I need to create some this and that to make it work. So I guess I keep it like it is and will play midi files just through download and QT 7.6 and not directly with plugin in the browser. Anyway.

Hello , i have pretty much same problem. Did you find a solution yet? Thanks

thanks!

Brilliant, this has been bugging me for ages - I just used to give up on any video bringing up this message but this time really needed to see it.

Thanks !
