Could someone help me with playing the "watch" section of lessons?

Question

Every other section in the lesson is working fine, but when I want to watch the video at the beginning, it just shows a quicktime symbol with a question mark over it. I'm almost positive that quicktime is enabled, but any directions for anything that might help would be very appretiated. I am using Internet Explorer 9, would downloading Firefox and using that instead be helpful?

The only reason I was able to complete the first lesson was because the video is on youtube, and so far the site seems really great, but the videos seem to be necessary.

Thank you very much.

Goyo - yes I am on Windows, do you know how to switch the viewer over to Adobe Flash Player? I know other things on the internet run in it. - sunworshiper, Jul 3, 2011

gfreed - Do you know which add-on by any chance? Or, like my question to Goyo, how to switch to viewing with a Flash Player (which I already have)? - sunworshiper, Jul 3, 2011

Answer 1

Hi Sunworshiper,

I assume you're on a Windows machine? For me the videos don't run in Quicktime- they run in Adobe Flash Player (Imbedded in my browser)

Do you have that?

Try here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html to see what comes up. I'm betting if you install / upgrade to the latest version of Flash Player it will work for you.

Answer 2

QuickTime has an add-in that allows you to watch Flash videos. Make sure that you have the add-in installed if you wish to use the Qucktime Player.

However, since there are free Flash players I suggest that you just use one of them since they are better at displaying the video format that they were designed for.
