Playing Music videos on itunes

I recently purchased music video from Store and have played and viewed it a couple of times, but today it will only show me a grey screen on itunes, but I can see that it has loaded and is running mute and without vision. Can you help please. All my music seems to play without any problem.
Sincerely Graham Brember

I'm not sure about your first problem, as I have not had any issue with music videos, but as to your second question, the answer is no. Streaming to Airport Express only works with music, not videos.
There is a third party software out there (can't recall the name), that is supposed to be able to capture any audio output and send it to airport express. I tried it and it did not work well for my purposes, but you might try it.

    iTunes won't play music videos.

    Hey guys, here's my problem.
    I had some major issues with OSX last week that a trip to the Apple Store couldn't fix. Their only advice was to save all my pictures, music, documents, etc. and reformat. I did that yesterday. I reinstalled everything and then downloaded all the most recent updates.
    Today, I can play all the music I own in iTunes (music imported from CDs, bought from other sites, and music bought from iTunes itself). However, it won't play any of the music videos I have (all bought off iTunes).
    I have authorized the computer again and again. When I try to open the videos in Quicktime it tells me that I don't have permission to play them and that I need to authorize the computer.
    I'm lost. Any help?

    Yup, this Audio but no Video WAS exactly the same trouble I was having, on my MacBook and iMac but not the other 2 MacBooks. This was due to the speaker settings at the bottom right hand corner of the iTunes window. I do use multiple speakers via Airtunes, on the two that were having trouble but not the other two, and although the speakers were only set to the computer it still wouldn't play the video content.
    Whilst the audio (of the music video) was playing I then went to reselect multiple speakers, which brought up the "*failure to connect to remote speakers network refused connection*" warning, then I unchecked the remote speakers to leave just the "Computer" and hey presto the video came to life.
    Thank you Charles C n Miami and hope this extra info helps.
    Happy Music Video Watching

  • ITunes will not play music videos through airplay

    This is a specific user account issue.  If I create a new account I do not have this issue.  That being said I really want to solve this for my existing user login.
    Music Videos (and tagged as such) play in iTunes fine. 
    If I select my AppleTV (which is listed as an airplay device).  It completely ignores the selection and continues to play on my Mac.  I am unable to play Music Videos over airplay.
    When playing music I am able to select any airplay device and it works fine.
    When playing movies I am able to select any airplay video device and it works fine.
    If I change the Music Video tag to Movies it plays fine
    If I change it to Home Videos it plays fine. 
    If I try to launch iTunes in safe mode it fails to play at all because of the lack of Quicktime support.
    Obviously it's something in my ~/Library that is messing it up somehow.  
    The only plugin I have is AudioScrobbler.bundle and removing launching iTunes does not solve it. 
    I've tried recreating all of my iTunes preference files and that doesn't solve the issue. 
    It's maddening! 
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    I have narrowed it down to the ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.iTunes.(incredibly long hash).
    Removing this file causes a new one to be regenerated and that solved nothing.
    Removing the ~/Library/iTunes directory and the ByHost preferences file and rebooting did work temporarily.
    There was only one plugin (AudioScrobbler.bundle) in the iTunes directory.
    I was able to play a music video and select the AppleTV and then broadcast to it.  This lasted last then a few hours and now it's back to the way it was before.  Select the AppleTV is silently ignored. 
    Highly frustrating.  I have a broke and fixed version of the com.apple.iTunes ByHOST preference file but doing a diff of the two is useless as most of the xml entries are long strings of hash values.  No human discernable difference between the working and not working files.  At this point I defintely want to file a bug report. 

  • I can't play music videos bought from iTunes

    So I bought 3 videos from that triple play, 2 for 1 sale on itunes. I loaded all three videos unto my iphone via playlist because for some reason, they wouldn't sync even though the check mark for music videos is on. Anyway, so I transferred them over, but the videos don't play. It only plays sound, but no video. Am I missing something here? I thought I was able to play music videos on the iphone? That's the only reason why I bought those videos, I don't even have an actual video ipod...the only other ipod I have is my super old 3rd gen...any suggestions on how to get this working?

    in iPod, what option are you selecting to play the music videos?
    You should select Video. If you view by artist or playlist, then only the music will play.

  • Purchased music videos from iTunes but it will not play, no video or sound

    Purchased music videos from iTunes but it will not play, no video or sound. There were several vidoes on the purchase I made and two of the videos will not play the video or sound. I've checked to see if they were waiting for download and nothing is there. Any suggestions.

    Is your iTunes account authorized for this computer in iTunes? - to check, open iTunes, and in the top menu bar, select "store", then "authorize this computer".  How to Authorize iTunes - http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/authorization/.

  • Itunes no longer plays music videos on iMac 27inch

    When I click on a music video to play the music plays but the video does not.  This never used to be the case.  Has anybody seen this happen.  TV programmes and normal movies play fine.. 
    I found the answer minutes after posting the question !  Seems you cannot have a remote set of speakers selected when playing music videos.  Somebody had already answered previously

  • Add my own music videos to iTunes

    When i add a music video or an episode of TV show to iTunes, it will always file it under the "Movies" tab. The music videos i buy on iTunes will always be filed under "Music Videos"...i have tried playing around to tag my own music videos as "music Videos" in iTunes with no success..Does anyone know what i have to do to get it to work?!!

    You can set the kind to "Movie" or "Music Video" as follows:
    In the iTunes library find the video and then Right click it / Get Info / Options tab / Video kind and choose.
    It would be nice if there were more choices but this may be enough for you.

    Dear Apple, I doubt you'll read this or do anything but I guess it's worth a try.  It used to be that when you played a music video via the musof app on your iphone, it would display the video in landscape mode. Now, extermely inituitively, turning your phone to the side shows a selection of your album covers. No one wants that. I seriously can not think of one person. Looking in your own forums you have questions in 2013 asking to bring this back but no response has been given. That's called arrogance. This is not some big technical ask. It would take you little to no time so what gives? You say you care about the customer experience but between this and the iTunes library syncing issues I am beginning to question that.
    You're correct as there is no Apple here in this user to user technical forum.

  • Trouble playing Music Videos on 8.1

    Music videos on iTunes (8.1) will only play audio even though Movies and TV Shows will display regularly on Quicktime (7.6). I've followed standard "If you can't play a video" iTunes Help instructions to no avail.

    Welcome to the  Discussion Forums.
    Have you tried these steps.

  • Playing Music Videos in 5th Generation IPOD

    I did all that was directed. I downloaded a music video from Itunes, it is now stored in my IPOD. I went to Videos, Music Videos, Artist, and then hit play. Sound, no video.
    Why?
    Thanks for your help

    We used to have this issue on AppleTV - lots of us sent feedback using the AppleTv feedback link similar to the one given, and I'd like to think that was the spur for the feature eventually being added.
    So I'd advise you to use the link the other poster gave.

  • How to play music videos back to back on the ipad

    I created a playlist of music videos on iTunes and synced to my iPad. The videos show up on my Video App (each video separate) and on the Music App (as a playlist) If I try to play the list from the Music App all I get is Audio. If I go to the Video App I can only play one at a time after selecting it from my collection. Am I missing something?
    All my videos play very nicely back to back on my Apple TV, I can even shuffle them!!! I just can do the same thing on my iPad.

    Thanks for the answer. That royally *****! I wish I would have know this before I went and bought upwards of 40 videos...

  • Don´t want to play music videos automatically when playing a Single

    I´m using iTunes 11.
    Its very annoying that iTunes plays music videos automatically when I´m listening to a single I bought on iTunes Store which includes a music video.  I don´t have a problem with it when the video appears in my music library, but I don´t want to watch it when I only want to hear music and iTunes is minimized.
    I could create a playlist, but I don´t want to because for two tracks it´s worthless.
    So does anyone have a workaround for this issue?`

    When in iTunes, click on file, then preferences. See the "general" tab. There is a drop down menu "When you insert a CD". What are your settings there ?
