The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

QuickTime file possibly corrupted - help much appreciated

Asked by mlittle50 in Quicktime Player, Windows XP Operating System, Removable Backup Media

Tags:

I recently tried to protect some files (both picture and video).  I started off by using Microsoft Private Folder 1.0 and things seemed to work fine.  Then I got greedy and tried to find a solution for putting the pic and video files on a USB drive.  I found and installed Cryptainer LE and they have a mobile solution called Cryptainer Mobile.  It seems like after this installation all hell broke loose.  I can still view the pics but the videos (.3g2 & .avi) will not play.  I could care less about the .avi files but the .3g2 are really important and it would be really sad to lose them.

The error I get is Error -2048:  Couldn't open the file 0706050013.3g2 because it is not a file that QuickTime understands.  I've done a couple hours of research before coming to this site and all the fixes I've tried have failed.  I've read through the knowledge base on Experts Exchange and tried to download a recommended codec but it didn't work either (same error message).

Also I removed the Cryptainer software in hopes that the associations would revert back to Quicktime properly but no good.  I also downloaded and reinstalled Quicktime hoping THAT might restore the association, no good.  I also verified that other Quicktime files will play.  It is just the files that I tried to protect with Microsoft Private Folder 1.0 and Cryptainer that are giving me trouble.

I'm really a novice on codecs, corrupted files, etc. so any help in restoring these files would be very very very very much appreciated :)
