Droid x wont play anything

my droid wont play any videos from youtube or any other website plus I downloaded songs and videos from itunes to the memory card and it says" the player does not support this file" and when I try to play a video it says " error video cannot be displayed or play" whats wrong with this thing I swear that I have never had any problems with my evo.
I dont want to return this phone but it just that I cant get it todo simple things.
Please help me.

Have you updated to 2.2 that added Flash support, also did you update to the recent YouTube app that recently got released? I never had any issues playing YouTube videos on the droid X...  If you are viewing the full view web page it will not play without flash but the mobile version will play through the YouTube portable app without issues.  Also files from iTunes are usually in a different format because they add their copyrights to the file, this will restrict what players that can play the files and this sounds like your issue.

  • Itunes wont play anything, windows 7

    itunes wont play anything.i hit play and it goes to pause but does not count down.im guessing it is because of the update that i did to itunes.please help.

    I am having the same problem and that didn't fix it.
    I purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 64 bit. I downloaded the install file. When I double click the icon nothing happens.
    I Downloaded the install cleanup utility and ran that (nothing with itunes in it).
    I Downgraded the UAC to the lowest security setting.
    I re-downloaded the install file and tried again.
    I deleted all the temp files in the user file folder.
    I made the install file compatible with Windows Vista (SP 2).
    Still nothing. I double click (or right click and run as administrator) and nothing happens.

  • HT1711 ITUNES WONT PLAY ANYTHING ***????

    ITUNES WONT PLAY ANYTHING ***??????? HELP MUSIC WITHDRAWAL ARE I

    Hello choefer_fish,
    It sounds like you have some video files in iTunes that do not play when you select them in the program, but do play when you double click the files themselves. I would start by checking to see that iTunes is accessing the correct iTunes library by checking the Advanced tab of its preferences:
    Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes shows the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    From: Where are my iTunes files located?
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
    If the location here matches the location you go to when you double click the files, then I would next use the Consilidate Library command to see if that gets iTunes to see it:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Change where your iTunes files are stored
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12365
    Consolidate your files in the iTunes folder
    You can consolidate all the files in your library in the iTunes folder—for example, to make it easier to move your library to a new computer.
    Choose File > Library > Organize Library.
    Select “Consolidate files.”Files remain in their original locations, and copies are placed in the iTunes folder.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Quicktime wont play anything

    I recently downloaded a .mov file and it played fine, but now quicktime suddenly stopped playing it. I double click on the file and it takes a while for quicktime to even open and when it finally does it wont play the file. It opens and the movie file's name is changed to "Untitled 2" in the taskbar. There is no audio or video either. Then when I go to File->Open File and click on the one i want to play, it takes a second and then an error message appears that says:
    Buffer overrun detected!
    Program: C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QuickTimePlayer.exe
    A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled quicktime several times and I also downloaded the latest Quicktime/iTunes and it still gives me this message. I also can't play any other of my files in quicktime.
    Anybody know what to do to fix this?

    I recieved the same thing a couple of months ago and started to research it but never followed thru with it. I monitored it with a firewall at the time and still have what I jogged down in a notebook.
    A computer you were communicating with at IP address ** has attempted to access a different port then exspected. Port 6970, this port is commonly used by Gate Trasher Trojan. Gate Trasher Trojan is a Trojan Horse program. This port 6970 is also used by Real Player and QT to recieve streaming media data.
    That is what I had written at the time, certainly not a fix, but may provide some insight.

  • Premiere pro wont play anything - forgot the workaround.

    Premiere Pro cs4 4.1.0
    Im on the last days of my trial run, and I once again cant get the timeline to play video; the playhead wont even budge.
    This happened before (dont know why it reverted back to not playing)
    I just cant remember what setting I tweaked. It was either disabling audio playback, or some related setting.  (I remember cause I was surprised that it affected video being able to be played.)
    Can someone throw me a suggestion? I already scoured the forums and the preferences and such. I cant find anything familiar to 'disable'.
    Thanks.

    Ah, thats interesting.
    My solution was Preferences> Audio Hardware> ASIO Settings>  INPUT> and disable my sound card {SoundMax Digital Audio, my only listed device}.
    Presto, I can now play clips.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro wont play any video/audio

    Hello! i recently got an Adobe creative cloud membership. and so i have been editing a video. no problems, no lag, nothing, its all been wonderful.
    but i sent the video to SpeedGrade, then exported from there and had an audio sync issue, that i decided to fix by aligning the old video clips audio with the new graded versions video.
    upon importing (old non graded and new greaded versions) the 8 minute files, and double clicking them to view them, they wouldn't play, even after a couple minutes.
    and they wouldn't play in the timeline either.
    so i tried many things, restarting, deleting my preference files, deleting and re-installing the application, using different video files + projects.
    i even tried an old project that i had. no other applications are suffering from this problem. (like after effects or speedgrade, they are 100% fine)
    i also tried different settings, including ones with the mercury playback engine. no luck
    No other forum has helped.
    i have a 21.5 inch Imac, with an intel i5 processor.
    8 gig of RAM. a 500gb HD
    and an AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB
    i am running OS X 10.8.2

    it was a video i was working on. i didnt export it to speedgrade though, i used dynamic link (send to speedgrade command) and sent the entire timeline to speedgrade.
    i quite premiere because i didnt need it any more (at that point because i was using speed grade) then i exported out of speedgrade the graded clip and brought that into premiere. and now premiere wont play anything.
    UPDATE: however when i scrub, it plays through the video but i dont hear audio (even though the setting for that is turned on).
    and when i press the space bar (or the play/stop button) over and over after i scrubbed a little bit, it will jump back and forth, so obviously not a hard drive permission/read error.
    and lastly, when i try to change the amount of zoom it has in the viewer (fit, 10$, 100%, 50% etc.) it crops the image and then the applications becomes unresponsive.

  • HT4623 I updated to 7.0 and now my ipod wont play in my car stero. I have reset, bought an itunes song and reset again but nothing is working. Pandora wont play. I can hear it on my phone when I unplug but not anything thru the stero except static. Help!

    I updated to 7.0 and now my ipod wont play in my car stero. I have reset, bought an itunes song and reset again but nothing is working. Pandora wont play. I can hear it very slightly in my speakers if I turn up the speakers but it is so faint. It plays thru its own speakers and my radio plays thru my speakers in my car so my its not my speakers.Help! Thank you!

    Hi Novagurl2369!
    I have an article for you that can provide some helpful troubleshooting steps to address your issue:
    No sound through stereo headset1
    Inspect the headset jack for debris and clean if necessary.
    Connect the headset and make sure the connector is pushed in all the way.
    Check the volume setting. Adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down button on the left side of the iPhone.
    If you are trying to listen to music and cannot hear any audio, make sure that the music on iPhone is not paused. Try squeezing the headset microphone to resume playback. Additionally, from the Home screen you can choose iPod > Now Playing, then tap Play.
    Make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed on the computer that you are syncing the iPhone with (songs purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won't play).
    Try another Apple headset (some third-party headsets require an adapter to be used with original iPhone).
    Try a different song or video.
    Check to see if the iPhone alert sounds or other iPhone sound effects exhibit the same audio issues.
    Disconnect the headset from the iPhone and see if sound comes from the built-in speaker.

  • Cant play anything, cant connect with library, cant re-install

    Hi, hopefully someone can help me, sorry this so long, seems that everything has broken down...
    1. Last night I was trying to correct a few things in my library e.g. where itunes had wrongly split 1 album into 2 etc.. I assumed this would be straightforward but wish I hadn't even attempted it now...
    2. When I tried this for one or two albums and synched to see if it had worked, I was receiving error message like: "... won't play because it is not authorised on this ipod" and "... could not be located".  The songs had exclamation marks next to them and wouldnt play
    3. I googled some solutions and tried various things such as editing the "Get Info" details and re-pointing to the library, but in the end this just resulted in none of the files being located
    4.  I kept looking for solutions online, and tried various similar things such as collecting all music into one file, replacing it into the iTunes folder and re-pointing the library to it (in "Preferences") and re-synching but that still didnt work
    5. Then eventually nothing would play - not in iTunes and not on my ipod either - i.e. the songs were there but when I clicked play nothing would happen
    6. Eventually the synch removed all of my music off my ipod except what I had purchased from the iTunes store (so that is on my ipod but wont play. The podcasts wont play either)
    7. So next I tried to uninstall iTunes, re-install and recreate the library by pasting all the files back in.  But I can't re-install it.  The first time I re-installed it told me it couldnt find "Apple Mobile Device", and to uninstall and reinstall again.  I did this but now everytme I try to install I get an error saying I can't because an installation is already in progress.  I've googled for a solution and tried running "clean disk", restoring the system to before I'd unistalled etc.. but nothing works..
    I'm not sure if this is related but a few months ago my hard drive was replaced.  I recovered all my music and had managed to get things working but perhaps it is related if the original music files weren't in the places they were supposed to be or that iTunes was expecting??
    This also may be unrelated but for a few months now, whenever I try to sync I get a message saying "scan and fix" or "continue without scanning".  If I choose scan and fix it crashes my PC, so I just used to choose continue without scanning and it would sync correctly.
    Can anyone help?? The first thing I need to do is reinstall itunes I suppose but at the moment I cant even do that...

    Ok, seemed an antivirus program was preventing install, so that bit is sorted
    The problem now is that I cant import my old library.  I imported these files from CD a few years ago.  More recently I found one other old CD and have purchased things from the iTunes store. The CD i added recently is there, as are my iTunes store purchases, but I can't import the rest.
    Is there anything I can do?? They wont play in Windows Media Player either. Could there be a permissions issue??iTunes file formats changing in updates and now it doesnt recognise the old ones??

  • 80g video wont play through tv at all

    i know this seems like an age old question...but considering im fairly tech savvy ive been puzzled as to why my ipod wont play music through my tv. i have a standard Y cable that works just fine when connected to my home theatre but will not play through my tv...at all, not just video. no music or anything. anyone know why?

    Er, by Y cable, you mean a standard RCA to 3.5mm cable?
    If yes, you'll need to plug each plug into the video (yellow) port and see which one carries the video signal. Apple switched around the signals for each cable, I think. Also, make sure the iPod is set to NTSC output in the Video settings screen.
