Newbies zapdafish Posted August 11, 2009 Newbies Posted August 11, 2009 we are hosting the database on FileMaker server 10 advanced and connecting to it from various machines running FileMaker pro 10. Our problem is with the container fields. We are storing quicktime movie references in a few of these fields. If one person inserts a quicktime movie from their machine, everytime they opens the database, they see and can play the quicktime movie. However, if someone else opens it from another machine, they get file not found. The qt movie is inserted from a shared folder on the server and the reference path is as follows. servernameVideoShare001.mov I can't figure out why other machines cant see the movie when they view the database. If someone else inserts the same qt movie into another entry, the reference is exactly the same but the the first person gets file not found. We really need everyone to see the quicktime movies regardless of who inserts them. Thanks. Steve
Newbies zapdafish Posted August 11, 2009 Author Newbies Posted August 11, 2009 right after I posted I thought of something, quicktime wasnt installed on some of the newer machines yet. Having a message "the file cannot be found" was very misleading.
