most of the software that is created today are not compatible with mac...not only the yahoo video ::\nmac require's software's to be MaC approved or there's a tie with the mac company:: for example the safari browser ::\nIt's more of a corporate thingy rather than a technical one

Windows Media Player definitely does support WMV so there might be a problem with your own system. Download VLC player (better than WMP) at http://www.videolan.org/

I dont think the problem is with your computer ... You might not just have the right player to play the video. Try downloading the latest Media player or real player or quicktime player. If you have these then you will have to install approppriate codec so that player can efefctively play those videos. download http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm and then try playing the video

the .mpg will work with quicktime, .avi will work with vlc ( video LAN client) and .wma or .wmv will work with either windows media player or flip for mac ( flip for mac is a qt plug-in)

Hmm...I don't have much experiance in MacOSs or Quicktime but I believe that you need an codec for it. Try looking around on the Quicktime website. That should give you more answers.

most of the videos on yahoo have been formated for viewing on the PC. Your best bet is to go to microsofts site and get windows media player for mac. It should give you the program and plugin. For me, it still only works about half the time...

The latest version of Skype now has video support, so I would go with that.  You can also try Yahoo! Messenger for Mac (supports video but voice chat is currently unsupported).  Finally, there's aMSN which also has video support.\n\nSkype:  http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/download/skype/macosx/\nYahoo! Messenger:  http://messenger.yahoo.com/\naMSN:  http://cmq.qc.ca/4w/amsn/

You need to save them as a quiktime on the mac that you made them,  then you can view them on any machine that has quicktime.

Microsoft doesn't support it, but you can try this site. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/internet_utilities/internetexplorer.html

It is used to play .mov files which I think are Mac video files. They now have a quick time alternitive codec so you can play .mov videos in Windows media player and not have to download/ pay for quick time.

The solution depends on the way you open the music video, i.e. which technology, is it online or a file on the system. Here's a solution \n\n(1) If it is a file, you might be getting a codec error, which can be fought by installing a suitable codec. You can also play the video using VLC player, it contains most of the codecs preloaded. You can download it at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/\n\n(2) If it is am online service, shut off the pop up blockers for a while. Yahoo music videos sometimes have a problem with firefox. In that case, open the videos in Internet Explorer

Windows Media Player.  But if you're on a Mac you'll have to get the VLC Media Player, even if you're on Windows this is a player I reccomend.  http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
