Application loaded, but won't play - flashes only when you select it

Help
I have downloaded Facebook, Skype and a couple of other apps. They worked yesterday. Today, when I click on them they flash only but won't load. What can I do?

Have you tried basics from the manual?
Restart?
Reset?
Restore?

  • Video with JWPlayer does load, but won't play and no error message (as plug-in needed) apear. What's the problem?

    video's with JWPlayer start loading but won't play and stay black with a rolling wheel. The player is shown and even full screen can be activated.
    There is no message for a missing plug-in.

    Do you see an error message about this in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer;Command+Shift+K)?
    Is there a shield or other extra icon on the left end of the location bar indicating that content is blocked?

  • HT203175 I bought wheel of fortune for my ipad it loaded but won't play

    I bought wheel of fortune for my Ipad it loaded but won't play, is there anything i can do, or can i get my money back?

    OOur internet service is not always fast enough to stream directly on Apple TV which is why we want to use AirPlay from the iPad to Apple TV.   When we try to play a movie it starts for one second and then crashes out.   This does not happen with every TV show - we watched 8 episodes of Season 4 with no problem, but it would not play episode 9 or episode 1 of season 5.

  • AuditionCS6 loaded but won't play

    Audition CS6 is installed and will show on the screen, but it won't play the file. Help please?

    I wouldn't bother - that won't be the problem at all. If you can open Audition, load a file, and then it won't play, the transport has failed. And the only reason that the transport fails is that Audition isn't connected to your sound device any more. So go to the preferences section, look at the hardware settings and see what's happened there. Reinstalling won't alter this in the slightest.
    You haven't said whether this is on a Mac or a PC, but this behaviour is the same on both.

  • Music Loaded but Won't Play

    I have a 160GB iPod and a lot of music on iTunes (approximately 31,000 tracks using 147GBs). The music comes from several sources -- iTunes purchases, CD rips, e-Music, Amazon.com, and other downloads. My problem is that when I sync the iPod (attempting to load all my music on it) and eject it, the iPod indicates that it is holding only a portion of the music in iTunes (e.g., 23,274 tracks) and won't play any of them. When I try to use Coverflow on the iPod, it doesn't respond. If I hit play on the Artist or Album list the iPod reads No Artist/Album. The Search feature is unable to locate any tracks on the iPod. If I try to load only a portion of my music (e.g., all music by bands whose names begin with the letters A through O), I can load and play the music on the iPod. Of course this isn't why I bought the 160GB iPod -- I wanted to load all my music. I have tried this with 4 new 160GB iPods with the same results. So I spent a considerable amount of time trying to clean up my music files by converting them to AAC hoping this would correct any conflicts or corrupted files. It doesn't seem to have helped and no one at Apple Support has any ideas. Has anyone experienced this problem or have suggestions?

    Well, my first thought is your iPod is full. Remember, though it is called a 160GB iPod, this means 160 billion bytes. This translates to approximately 149GB (as computed by the iPod or any other computer). If you account for overhead such as album art, games, operating system, library database, etc., the iPod may just be filling up prior to completion. I do not know what happens in such a case.
    And the reason for the discrepancy - hard drive manufacturers use Base10 when marketing their wares; computers (PCs, Macs, whatever) use Base2 when computing drive size (or memory size, for that matter). So, 160 billion is (10^9)*160. However, the computer computes 160GB as (2^30)*160 (or a little over 171 billion bytes). Designating GB as 1 billion bytes has been standard marketing for the past 20 years.

  • Captivate 6 project loads but won't play

    The project won't play when I preview or publish, although each individual slide will play fine.

    The play button on the timeline worked fine, but if I try to preview the project, it would load but wouldn't start playing and the control buttons wouldn't work to make it play either.  I've fixed this for now by re-creating the first slide and deleting the existing first slide.  I don't know why but for some reason I've had this happen multiple times on various slides in a project for no apparent reason.
    So for now, this project is working, it's just a weird glitch I've run across and had to reach out several times.  Each time the answer is to locate the slide where the issue starts and re-build that slide.  So that's what worked again this time.

    Hi mikefrompoland,
    For more information about 5.1 Surround Sound in iTunes, you may find the following article helpful (it is primarily aimed at Mac users, but the settings in Windows should be similar):

  • Applications blink but won't play

    When I tap the application icon it looks like it is loading but then it goes back to the main screen.

    Your apps are crashing for some reason. Try these steps.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If none of these things work, try downloading any free app and see it that helps to reset the iPad. Sometimes it does work.

  • Podcast can be accessed in app, subscribed to, downloaded, but won't play in Itunes when clicking the "arrow" to play.

    Trying to help a friend with a podcast.  It can be subscribed to, downloaded, accessed on a mobile device on the podcast app, but when I go to click the "play arrow" in iTunes it just spins its wheels.
    The page in Itunes is here:  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/smokey-college-football-picks/id918319795?mt =2
    The RSS/XML feed is here:  http://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/smokeybandit/Smokey_College_Football_Picks_wit h_the_Bandit.xml
    The podcast files are hosted on amazon web services.
    Any ideas why this won't play?

    The media file URL of your top episode is
    http://s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/smokeybandit/20140917+180949.m4a
    If you enter the URL of a media file for podcasting in the address bar of Safari or another browser, it should play directly in the browser. However your file is set so that it downloads instead of playing. When subscribing this isn't a problem because iTunes downloads the file anyway; but the Store plays the file directly in the Store page, just as a browser does when it's correctly set. If you have the file set to force a download then the Store can't play it directly.
    So you need to go into your Amazon settings and set each file not to download. Then it should all work.

  • I purchased a song on my iMac on iTunes and it plays on that but won't play on my macbook even though both computers are authorized under the same iTunes account.  how do I fix this?

    I purchased a song on my iMac on iTunes and it plays on that but won't play on my macbook even though both computers are authorized under the same iTunes account.  It says that i have to authorize my macbook and sign into iTunes, but then says its already authorized.  How do I fix this?

    Hi stuartbonk,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  Here are some steps you can try if you keep getting asked to authorize your MacBook for iTunes:
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203160
    If you authorize your computer to play your iTunes Store purchases, but you can't play them and iTunes keeps prompting you to authorize, try these suggestions.
    Authorize your purchases from an administrator account
    To authorize your purchases from an administrator account, follow these steps:
    Log in to the administrator account.
    Note: If you don't have access to an administrator password, you'll need to contact the administrator of this computer. If this is a work computer, this may be your IT department.
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed. You can download the latest version free.
    Choose Store > Authorize Computer.
    Enter your iTunes account name and password.
    Note: If you have multiple accounts, you'll need to log in to the iTunes Store and authorize each account separately.
    Quit iTunes.
    After you've authorized your computer on your administrator account, you'll need to log out and log back in to the user account you'd like to play your purchases from. Once you're logged back in, simply open iTunes, select an iTunes Store purchase in your library, and click Play. The item should begin to play.Authorize using the correct account name
    The items you're trying to play might have been purchased using a different iTunes Store account. To determine which account was used to purchase an item, follow these steps:
    Select a purchased song in your library and choose File > Get Info.
    Click the Summary tab. Note the Account Name that appears in the list. This is the account name (Apple ID) you'll need to use when authorizing your computer to play this purchase.
    Note: The account name that appears is the one you used when purchasing the item and does not change if the account name (Apple ID) changes.
    If you've authorized the Apple ID that is shown in the Summary tab, you can check the purchase history for that Apple ID from Store > View My Account. If your purchase history does not reflect the purchase of the items in your iTunes library, consider any other Apple ID you may have created, and authorize the computer for your additional Apple ID.
    If you forgot the password to one of your accounts, you can recover it using Apple's password-recovery website.Remove the SC Info folderIf you're still unable to authorize your computer to play your purchases, you may be able to resolve your issue by removing the "SC Info" folder. To do so, follow these steps:
    OS X
    Quit iTunes and any other open applications until only Finder is open.
    Choose Go > Go to Folder.
    Type /Users/Shared/SC Info and click Go.
    If Finder is not already set to column view, set it by choosing View > as Columns.
    Select the SC Info folder and move it to the Trash by choosing File > Move to Trash.
    Restart the computer and open iTunes.
    Authorize your computer to play your purchases. Note: If you have multiple accounts you'll need to authorize your computer for each account. For more information on how to authorize your computer, see this article.

  • I rented a movie through iTunes and it downloaded but won't play.

    I rented a movie through iTunes and it downloaded but won't play. It is present in the videos app but doesn't load the picture for the movie. When I go to play it, it just opens and then closes. There is an iCloud icon that suggests the movie has not Been downloaded and when I click it it says that the movie has already been rented but not downloaded and that I need to go to downloads to manage it. It is not present in my iTunes download page however. And when I go to rent it again all I get is a watch button that directs me back to the videos app with no way to watch it.

    Hi Refvoxa,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not able to play or download a movie rental on your iPad, first restart your device:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    After your iPad restarts, try resuming the download again:
    If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
    For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
    Enter your account name and password if prompted.
    Tap the blue download arrow to resume.

    If the movie still does not appear in Downloads, and can't be played, I recommend reporting the issue with your purchase:

  • I have several songs that I purchased. They show in my library, but won't play on any of my devices - including my computer. I keep getting the "authorize the computer" prompt. My computer is authorized! I have done all the troubleshoots that are availabl

    I have several songs that I purchased. They show in my library, but won't play on any of my devices - including my computer. I keep getting the "authorize the computer" prompt. My computer is authorized! I have done all the troubleshoots that are available. How do I get my computer and other devices to be able to play these songs? Almost all  my songs play except for about 8 or 9.

    If only some of the songs on an album are giving you the authorisation message, that suggests those song files are damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • 'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone is selected for output.  Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure.  Ideas????

    'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone (3G)  is selected for output.  Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure.  Ideas????

    Thank you for the replies.
    Appearane of 'Music' functions (I>>   > II   <<I,   plus volume slider)  on the lock/log in screen (when first turning on the iPhone) thus far seems without pattern, i.e. regardless of which if any applications are up in the background, and indeed even when all have been quit.
    All visual aspects of 'Music' appear normal after launch including the title scroll across the top in vertical mode. However, while pressing play (>) converts the play (>) icon to pause (II), selected song does not play and the elapsed time bar (upper end between the track count and the repeat/shuffle icons) remains stationary at 0:00 or at any point to which it is dragged.  When using home sharing this same problem persists regardless of what output is selected.
    Hope that may prompt a thought somewhere.
