> This is not technically a microscopy question, but I'm desperate:
>
> I use a mac. I have hundreds, if not thousands, of videos exported
> into .mpg
> and .mov formats over many years of imaging.
>
> Of late, I have noticed that _many_ of my older .mov files are
> seriously
> corrupted on the Mac. It's not the data. Archived movies are the
> same. It's
> the player- Quicktime. It no longer can play the old movies.
> However, 2-3
> years ago, before this problem was widespread, we exported
> several .mov
> files to .avi. These .avi movies (fortunately) play just fine.
> However,
> attempt to export the corrupted .mov files now yield .avi files
> that look
> just like the .mov files- that is to say, they look like garbage.
>
> I have attempted to revert to older versions of quicktime- all the
> way to
> v7.3. No luck. They're still corrupted.
>
> The corruption is not a computer issue. The same movies are
> corrupted on
> many others Macs with current system installations.
>
> As you might expect, this makes for less than stellar
> presentations, when

>
> Oddly, some movies exported on the same day, using the same
> software, will
> play, and others will not.

> Has anyone else encountered this problem on the Mac? Any thoughts?
