Accessing videos from other apps

I have two questions concerning videos.
1) I have videos that I transferred using iTunes from my computer to my iPad and videos that I downloaded using a free video app.  The native Apple video app can't see the downloaded videos and conversely the free video app can't see the videos I transferred via iTurns sync.  Is there a way to make a video app see all videos regardless of how it got loaded on the iPad?  All videos are in the mp4 format.
2) How can I load avi videos from my computer onto my iPad?  iTunes doesn't seem to recognize this video format.  Using iCloud isn't a great option for me since my wifi is slow.

1) you'll need to use iTunes on your computer to bridge the gap between your two apps. Use iTUnes to make the downloaded ones visible in the video tab and vice versa (Since you can download I'm going to guess there is some sort of data transfer option to the video app.) You could also look into something like dropbox, see if you can uplaod them and download them into the right apps (although that may not work since the video app is pretty closed in to iTunes.)
2) convert those avi's to mp4's. There are free programs out there. For a PC, Format Factory, for PC and Mac, mpegstreamclip, both should convert. then you can use iTunes to move those converted videos into your video app.

    Thanks again. I tried channel 13 and it seemed to work better, with less dropouts (albeit not perfect) but sadly my slightly ageing laptop wouldn't recognise the network at all with the Hub set to that channel, so I had to switch it back to 11!
    Will try the factory reset at some point to see if that improves things.
    I have the same issue with my iPad when streaming videos...like the issue posted on ‎25-04-2014 18h36 by Steve.
    Steve - Can you kinldy clarify how you resolved the problem finally.
    I was infact planning to change the iPad or sell it off due to this recurring problem.

  • Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

    i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

  • Accessing data from other SAP system

    Hi experts
    I need to access data from one SAP system from other.  My requirement is , perform applications (programs) in some SAP system, but using/accessing  data from other SAP system .
    For example, when we press F4 we get the match code (search help) for the field ;  that window is alredy created by SAP and it shows the data for that field . Of course the application (ike any other program/application) read the data from the SAP system is being executing ;  well i need execute that match code but show (taking) the data from other SAP system;  i not refer to other MANDT in same system but other SAP system.
    The communication between SAP1 system and SAP2 system is already created from BASIS.
    My doubt is how can i  execute that standard application (search help) but 'invoke' to standard application this take data from other system ?
    I guess i can create Z search help wich call a Z Function (RFC) to get the data required from the other system ;
    or maybe enhance the standar search help to call that Z RFC ;  but standard application search help is already created and this access the data in several ways or places of code , and this has severals sub-windows and search features ; and i just need execute exactly same search help but accesing data from the other SAP system ; so my doubt is, is there some way to indicate to SAP the applications always (wherever) these applications acces the data do it but from other SAP system, 
    like if we 'redirect' the Data Base to other SAP system. 
    SAP1 applications are being executing  -
    >   but all data (records) are taking from SAP2
    Maybe the first suggestion is simply why do not we execute applications in SAP2 instead SAP1 , that's because the version package in SAP2 system (where we have the data) does not support some (non SAP) applications we need to use.
    Excuse the long thread.  Does somebody can help, any idea ?
    Best Regards
    Frank

    Hi Frank,
    Below are my thoughts, these are only conceptual and haven't had an opportunity to try these possibilities, also not sure if this is the right thing.
    1) Create an entry in DBCON using TCode: DBCO for the Database of system SAP2. Now in the application of SAP1 use the "SET CONNECTION" construct as the very first statement, so that consecutive SQL statements will point at the DB of SAP2.
    2) I have read somewhere that the Work Processes are connected to the Default database and i am not sure if you can change this setting, but if you can and provided you have have multiple application servers in your SAP1 landscape, then pick one of the application servers and change the settings on the WP to point at the DB of SAP2, you have the end users login to this particualr app server.
    3) If there are multiple app servers in SAP1 landscape, then choose one of the app servers and change the default database setting to point at DB of SAP2.

    Chen

  • Can no longer send mail from other apps

    Problem:
    If I go into any app (other than Mail) and try to send a message (via email) and I either get nothing or some apps will say that "Mail needs to be configured in order to do this."  After doing a restore on my iPod touch (4th Gen., running the latest iOS5) I had only configured a few accounts under "Mail, Contacts, Calenddars", and *was* able to send mail from other apps just fine.  Now that I have 13 accounts I cannot; not only is Mail configured and working fine (by itself,) but I now only have one account with "Mail" activated, and it is indeed set as the "default account" in Settings anyhow.  This is frustrating since some apps depend on email to let me export its data but is also a nuisance since it makes it more difficult for me to share content with others.
    Has anyone encountered this bug and/or have a tip?

    It is possible the Evil Starbucks empire has blocked SMTP sending as an antispam measure. You would need to log in to your email server using the smtpauth protocol. For example, Earthlink has an smtpauth.earthlink.net server for secure sending, which I was able to use sending from any public AP. Possibly T-Mobile has a similar authorized server.
    But nowadays I just use Gmail, they make it easy and reliable to send from anywhere because they use a custom smtp port. Yeah, Gmail solved a multitude of problems with mobile sending.

  • Copy-Paste From Other Apps (like PPT 2004) Into CS5 Broken ? -  OS 10.6.3

    Hi,
    New Mac, so to avoid problems went for the new post-Snow Leopard Photoshop CS5. Oops.
    Copy-Paste From Other Apps Into CS5
    Pasting images/photos from Powerpoint 2004 to CS5, I experienced the exact problem posted slightly off topic by james norrington in the thread "CS5 does not let me copy & paste file names."  It was not answered and is quoted here:
    ---"I am using CS5 Photoshop and Office 2004 on 10.6.3. I was using 10.4 until a few weeks ago and it worked and still works with other macs in the office using CS4. I can copy and paste from powerpoint but it cuts the pictures in half and does not know what the res. of the image is. Also when I go from photoshop to powerpoint the image res. is also not preserved."---
    Besides that, I also found copy-paste from a digital camera photo.jpg from Preview to CS5 doesn't respect the resolution either. Directly opening the photo into PS CS5, fine.
    From the earliest PS, always was able to copy any image to clipboard, have a new document dialog box come up pre-filled with correct original WxH pixels, original resolution, color mode, etc., and just paste into the new document - perfect fit (even the oddball PPT 576 ppi). Now a shift and cut-off.  Don't have PPT 2008 to test pasting from there.
    I have also found that a similar but less severe image cut off happens when copy-paste from PPT -> Preview, or -> TextEdit, or ->  drag and drop picture clipping.
    Opening Image File in CS5
    Even an original 300 dpi tiff file wrongly went to 72 ppi etc. when opened directly into CS5. Converted the file to a jpeg in Preview - that jpeg file could be opened into CS5 correctly, reconverted the jpeg to TIFF in Preview, still opened OK (not counting loss of image quality). Still couldn't copy paste from either document into CS5 correctly. One difference I noticed in the converted files was that more information was available in the Preview file info. Maybe that made the difference in opening the file correctly.
    I'd welcome any suggestions. Thanks.

    Thanks to Chris for the explanation of the dueling clipboards.
    It's still frustrating, but since I still have a CS2 license from the dead G4 the current Mac replaced, I can try that (wonder if they can coexist), or maybe I could use an older Mac for this particular situation.
    As for the .tif file, it was generated by a Mac OS 8.5 era image capture program that we are forced to use, and the analysis was that the app does not properly encode the TIFF tags to acceptable standards. Preview 5.0.2 just guessed right from the little information that was included - but it didn't work when tried with Preview 3.0.9 on an OS 10.4 Mac. So this was a unique situation.

  • I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen

    I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen
    Whenever, I have pages open or any other app I press the home button twice, and then I swipe to the right and obtain the menu that allows me to alter brightness or sound. At this point I press play and nothing works. However, once I go back to my youtube page, and press the play button then it works. If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    just click the serial number in itunes ... geeze... just kidding
    you might be able to find it on the mac...
    in finder do your username under places then library then application support then MobileSync then Backups
    the shortest folder name should be the UDID
    of course that assumes it ever made a backup...
    if it made more than one there will be some -date-blah on the end...

  • Is there a way to access object from other schema?

    1. Is there a way to access object from other schema
    Without using synonym/public synonym without prefixing schema owner?
    2. If you do not see any object in all_objects by same name owned by connected user or public, can there still be objects hidden from this view? for instance synonyms created by SYSTEM
    TIA for help

    Well, you missed something somewhere. If there is no
    ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA=whoeverthen there must be either public synonym for the object as this shows:
    SQL> CREATE USER a identified by a;
    User created.
    SQL> GRANT CREATE SESSION to a;
    Grant succeeded.
    SQL> CREATE USER b identified by b;

    SQL> CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM test FOR TEST;
    Synonym created.
    SQL> connect a/a

    SQL> desc test
    PROCEDURE TESTITAnother possibility without public synonyms is that crv had granted the other user privileges on some object, and the other user creates a private synonym for that. When crv granted privileges on a different object with the same name, the private synonym became valid again. Something like:
    SQL> connect /
    Connected.
    SQL> drop public synonym test;
    Synonym dropped.
    SQL> GRANT CREATE SYNONYM TO a;
    Grant succeeded.

  • Videos from other sources

    I am trying to figure out how to use videos from other sources to go into itunes so I can play it on my ipod. I have heard that quicktime pro works for that, but I don't have that. I have quicktime player, windows media player, and real player. i have also tried dragging the videos from my desktop to itunes, but it doesn't work. What can i do?

    I downloaded handbrake, but now it seems that I can only use DVD video formats to transcode. I just want to make videos downloaded for windows media player or other players from the internet work with itunes. I tried using handbrake and when I put in the thing I wanted it said no valid title found. i also looked at the help on handbrake, and that is wha made me think it was only for DVD's. I would like to be able to do that too, but I don't have a DVD drive. What can I do or use to get videos to work through itunes from a downloaded source?

  • Problems importing mail from other apps

    I cannot get an Intel Mac until I have successfully transferred all my email to OSX from other apps that only run in Classic. I managed the Outlook Express mail perfectly by importing it into Entourage. Unfortunately I cannot get the same result for the (older) Netscape mail.
    This is the situation : Netscape Communicator is on an external HD with the emails (in System Folder:Preferences:Netscape Users). I use Classic to see all the messages and folders, but cannot import them into either Entourage or Thunderbird. What happens is ...
    Entourage : fails at final step - "necessary file Netscape Communicator cannot be found"
    Thunderbird : fails to insert the Netscape Users profiles folder and offers no dialogue to navigate to it
    This one little detail (several hundred mail messages extending back to 1999) is preventing me from abandoning my G5 that runs Classic. Once I upgrade to Intel this will be lost forever unless I can get it into OS X somehow. Any ideas?

    Sadly, no
    Eudora (I tried 5.2) will only import from Claris emailer or Outlook - it offered to "Search disk" for other apps, but didn't let me define WHICH disk so I could point it at my external HD where the System Folder and Netscape currently live.
    The good news is, I finally managed to get it into Entourage! Previously I had tried to import 'everything' from Netscape, but when I narrowed the list down to just Messages (which is all I really wanted anyway) suddenly it worked. So now I have everything in Entourage, and except for the occasional lamented game, I have no need to run Classic ever again.

  • Firefox for Android loads from start every time its switched back from other apps

    Hi
    I have figured this out that when I load Web pages and meanwhile I switch to other apps like Whatsapp, and then coming back to Firefox, Firefox loads again from the start instead of continuing from where I left.
    Even if the Web page is loaded fully and the loading process is completed and I switch to Whatsapp or any and then back to Firefox, Firefox again starts the process from beginning and loads the same page.
    This issue is not in chrome, as if Chrome is loading page and switch back and forth from other apps, chrome continues the process where I left and if the Web page is already loaded then Chrome doesn't start the process again and stays where it is.
    Please look into this, else you guys rock ;)

    Are you using the app switcher?
    Maybe this has something to do with how long the page is supposed to be cached... When I expand my tab list, I can see that some of the tabs are just where I left them and others have blanked out.
    Hopefully and Android guru can give you a better answer.

  • IMovie can't see imported videos from other cameras.

    I've got the last version of iMovie on my iPad 2. (1.2.2)
    When I download on my iPad videos from my video camera, iMovie won't show it! I can't make a project!
    I've got Sony Bloggie Camera... Please, help me!  

    I had a look and it looks to be an AVCHD camera.
    You will need to use either iMovie Mac (the latest version), or use a dedicated app to get the AVCHD Files.
    There are many AVCHD video converter programs.
    I like to use Video Pier:
    http://www.aquafadas.com/en/videopier/
    If you can mount the camera on your computer then you could search through the directories till you find the .MTS files (these are the AVCHD video files).
    But to find out how to access the files from the JVC you'd be better to ask JVC.
    All video will have to be converted before it can be edited on the iPad or iPhone.
    The MTS files can be dragged into Bigasoft by the looks of it.
    I've never used this program, there are free alternatives that work perfect.
    Here is a free converter, worth a try before you pay anyone:
    http://www.macxdvd.com/dvd-to-imovie-converter-free/
    I had a play and it works great.
    The settings need to be just right to get it to work for an iPad or iPhone.
    I find the red settings here need to be like this:
    Then you need to create a new folder/album in iPhoto and add the .mp4 clips there.
    Then go to the photos tab in iTunes and add the photo album with the videos:
    The videos should show up in the camera app, and so also in iMovie.
