Quicktime Not Opening in Browser

Okay, so I use Firefox and I like to use Quicktime to play my MPEGs mainly because it always opens within my browser. But, I restarted my computer and when I went to play an MPEG, it said there was no plug-in and I had to download Quicktime again. Now, when I try to play a file, it plays externally, having to open the program.

How do I get Quicktime back to where it plays within the browser?

 

DukeDevils9192,

Clear the Location Bar, and then type aboutlugins. Is QuickTime listed? It should be there, especially in view of the fact that you reinstalled the program, after installing Firefox.

Are there any QuickTime *.dll files listed in your C:\Program Files\Netscape\Netscape\plugins folder?

What Version of QuickTime are you running?

Are you trying to play an audio or video file, and also could you give us a link to a page where you aren't getting QT to work, please.

Let us know and we can move on from here, and thanks!

EDIT:

Try enabling the Quicktime preferences | Browser Plugin | Mime settings, to enable the MPEG file type and any other file type you wish to enable. Click the + to expand the categories, if they are collapsed. Then try a Test for an MPEG Video file:

Thanks Ramona, but I actually got it worked out. I installed the latest Quicktime player and then changed the MIME settings. And now, I can play everything I need.

Thanks again.

 

DukeDevils,

Glad you worked it out, and you are able to play your MPEG files!
