| (No Picture) on Web movies/videos Help, I've somehow done something to my eMac so that .mpg, .mov, .wmv movies/videos from the Web won't load. I get a black screen with (No Picture) where the videos should be running. I've had the same (No Picture) problem when I've tried loading Web movies in Safari and Firefox. It was working fine until a day ago, so not 100-percent sure what happened. I think it might have something to do with a visit to Wikipedia where a musician's entry had .ogg files that wouldn't run and I tried to load one of the helper files recommended by Wikipedia. I've tried reloading Safari, QuickTime, Real Player and Windows Media Viewer off the Web and even tried a software restore using the eMac discs that came with my machine. But I still can't get the Web movies to run. My Flash player is working, though. I have an eMac PowerPC G4 (3.3) running Mac OS X 10.3.9 with 1 GHz CPU speed, 256 KB L2 Cache and 256 Memory.

| I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with this problem. Please let me know if you find a solution. I'm working with one of the MacOSX.com tech support people to see if we can find a solution, but so far we haven't found one. If anybody else has dealt with this issue, please give us suggestions. Thanks. |

| The big problem would be one of two things. 1. Are you using the latest QuickTime? 2. Have you installed any third party QuickTime codecs lately? The codecs are in /Your Hard Drive/Users/Your User Name/Library/Quicktime & /Your Hard Drive/Library/QuickTime.

| I sure could use a solution to this puzzling predicament as well! I have a Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5, OS X 10.4.7, 1.5 GB RAM, Quicktime 7.1.2, and have removed all 3rd party codecs, but the "no picture" window remains in both Safari and Firefox. Many thanks to all. |

| The first thing I would try then is to create a throw away "test" user account and see if the problem remains. I say this because you have to know if the problem is system wide or just with the your user account.
