I changed the name of a .mov file and now it won't open saying that it is something that Quicktime doesn't understand. The original name was rather obscure, hence my changing and i don't remember what it was. What can i do to get it back?!

click one it and do Command + I then in the name and extension box just type .mov (or what ever the original extension was) and it should be fine.

I wish it was that simple. Have already done that.

Go to Fider Preferences and select advanced. Click show all file extensions. Then try to rename the file.
