Can't play my music and videos anymore?

Files are on iPad but Will not play when selected through music app or YouTube or video app on iPad2. Tanks for help.

Update your iPad to iOS 5.1.1
To Fix your Music in the Music App:
1) Plug your iDevice into iTunes.
2) Under your devices music tab, de-select Sync Music -> Click on Sync (this should remove your itunes library from your iDevice
3) After completing step 2, go back to the music tab and re-select Sync Music -> then click on Sync
4) After completing step 3 your iTunes library should have returned to your iDevice
5) Try playing your music now from the music app. It should work.
To Fix Your Videos in the Videos App:
1) Plug your iDevice into iTunes
2) Under your devices Movies tab, de-select Sync Movies -> Click on Sync (this should remove your iTunes video library from your iDevice
3) After completing step 2, go back to the movies tab and re-select Sync Movies -> then click on Sync
4) After completing step 3 your iTunes video library should have returned to your iDevice
5) Try playing your videos now from the Videos app. It should work.

  • Can't play any music or videos after 7.4.3.1 upgrade

    Any body seen this type of problem after the update??
    After upgrading to iTunes 7.4.3.1 I can't play any music on my PC. iTunes allows me to select the tune piece from the library, loads the player and just sits there not advancing the song.
    If I try to play am MP3 through Windows Media Player same thing happens. I also can't play any of the video files I have on dick either. They play a few seconds worth, pause, then play a pit more and it repeats.
    Thanks
    Jay

    +If I try to play am MP3 through Windows Media Player same thing happens.+
    If two of your media players are doing that, we'd better have a look in your control panels.
    Open your "Sounds and Audio Devices" control panel. Click the "Audio" tab.
    Is the correct default device showing up in the "Sound Playback" area?

  • How can I backup my music and videos to icloud?

    Hello, I want to be able to backup my music and videos to iCloud.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks.
    Anees.

    Only media that you purchased from Apple:
    The following items are not backed up to iCloud. You can sync these items with a computer using iTunes:
    Music, movies and TV shows not purchased from the iTunes Store
    Therefore what you purchased is not "backed up". The content remains where it originated - on iTunes.
    Apple could easily change its mind and remove it, change it, or simply make it unavailable.
    Same thing for iTunes Match I'm afraid... iTunes Match does not back up your content and is therefore not a backup strategy. It finds a "match" in its vast library and permits you to access it.
    There have been a lot of complaints from purists who found their mono Beatles tracks were "matched" with stereo equivalents, "explicit" tracks matched with clean, etc.
    The bottom line is that iCloud is no substitute for one's own iTunes backup, and a backup / clone of the device containing it.

  • ITunes says it can't find apps/music and videos

    when i try to sync my ipod touch with itunes it says that it can't find a number of items. how can i find these items (music, videos and apps) and get them on my ipod.
    Thank you for your time

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .
    To find out which tracks are missing...
    Lost & Found
    Create a playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist (it may take some time to count the tracks that are to be dropped). Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist.

    - First I would reset the iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next restore from backup
    - Last, restore to factory defaults/new iPod

  • Can Flash play multiple audio and video files at the same time?

    Hello,
    I would like to create a web-based client/application that
    can play multiple a/v files or stream multiple a/v files at same
    time. Is this possible with Flash, without the use of RTMP? If yes,
    can you please provide an example. Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Nilang

    You never edit within a clip. The purpose of opening a clip is to make sync adjustments, audio equalization, color correction, stabilization, things that you might want do overall to the master clip before you edit it. You edit the portion of the clip you want from the browser into a project. There is really very seldom any need to open a clip into the timeline.

  • I need "synchronize" my music and videos from my ipod to my new laptop

    I buy a new computer but I don't have my music there. Can I copy all music and videos from my iPod to the new laptop?

    The ipod is not a storage/backup device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

  • I do not see my music and videos icon....how do I make them appear?

    I do not see my music and videos icon....how do I make them appear?

    If you can't find the Music and Videos apps on any of your homescreens or app folders, then can you can't find them via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right) ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find them after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can't download purchased music to video iPod

    I can't download purchased music and videos to my new 30GB video iPod.
    When I try to copy videos or purchased I get an error "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close" and iTunes quits after I close the dialog.
    I ran the iPod Updater 2006-01-10 and Restored my iPod. I can download mp3s and a video I created in QT Pro but not purchased music or videos.
    I uninstalled all previous iPodSetup installations, iTunes, QuickTime, rebooted and deleted the iTunes prefs file at:
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\SC Info\SC Info.sidb
    I reinstalled iPod Updater 2006-01-10 and iTunes 6.0.2 and rebooted.
    The problem remains.

    The problem is on my home computer. I am able to download the same purchased music from my work computer. I've not tried downloading it from my home computer while logged in as a different user. I'll try that tonight. The error message can be viewed at http://knouse.org/images/ituneserror.jpg

  • Can't type or play music and videos.

    I spilled water on my iPod, now every time when i'm typing it blocks after a few letters.
    I also can't play music and videos, when i pres play it just sets itself back on pause.
    Anyone has advice?

    Place the iPod in a sealed container iwth uncooked rice for a week to dry the iPod . Then try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can I play music and video files in Solaris 10?

    Hi all. I just downloaded Solaris 10 and installed it. I haven't used it for a long time (since version 8), and as I can see now, there are many improvements. I just loved Java Desktop! :)
    Can someone please tell me what libs or codecs etc, do I have to download and install in order to play music and videos (mp3, wmv, dvd etc), and where I can find them?
    I use the on-boaad sound system (Realtek AC97)
    Thank you all.

    You didn't mention if the sound drivers are working. If not, download and install the driver from here and reboot (it supports your codec):

    DVDs are more of a problem because of DCIMA. Look around.

  • Can iPad 3 utilise the camera kit to play music and video directly?

    I would like to know if the ipad 3 is able to read music and video from the camera kit without all sorts of nasty jailbreaking.
    I guess it could be the case that Apple do not allow this in the hope of selling larger capacity Ipads, but on the other hand its not rocket science to allow this either.
    Any other suggestions for occational storage usage (ie when I am away on holiday or for work) appriciated
    thanks
