Error when watching a movie on my iPad.

I have a movie (.mp4) on my PC (which wasn't purchased via iTunes) and I wanted to put it onto my iPad Mini (iOS 7.0.6). I put the video into the iTunes library and transferred it to my iPad and it was fine. When I went to watch it on my iPad however, I tapped the movie and the usual video player came up, but then it gave me the following error message:
"The operation could not be completed
An unknown error occurred (-12894)"
If anyone could help, that would be great.
Thanks,
Dean.

To say THANK YOU, press the "thumbs up symbol" to render a KUDO. Please click Accept as Solution, if your problem is solved. You can render both Solution and KUDO.
The Law of Effect states that positive reinforcement increases the probability of a behavior being repeated. (B.F.Skinner). You toss me KUDO and/or Solution, and I perform better.

    As has been discussed on these forums thousands of times, Adobe does not make a flash player for iphone/ipad/ipod and likely never will.
    You can do a forum search and find countless posts on this.

  • How do I get more volume when watching a movie and can I use headphones?

    How do I get more volume when watching a movie? And can I also use headphones?

    Many governments now limit how loud headphones can go. Europe has been plagued with this for many years. Separate amplifiers are available.  
    I believe volumes should be kept at reasonable levels to avoid hearing loss, but it's not the governments job to protect me.
    I prefer Beyerdynamic over Bose Headphones. (They spend a lot less money on advertising.)

    I'm trying to watch a movie from my iPad on my tv with Hdmi  cable.  Do I need to do anything to the tv to make this work?

    Not really. Using the correct Digital Av adapter and connecting the iPad to the Tv through one of its HDMI ports is all it takes. Of course making sure the correct input is selected in the Video source selection on the TV.

  • HT1657 if i want to watch a movie on my ipad do i have to order the movie from itunes from my ipad or can i download it from my desktop then sync my ipad

    i want to watch a rented movie on my ipad while I am travelling.  Do I have to download the movie from itunes from my ipad or do I access itunes from my desktop then just sync my ipad to watch the movie on my ipad?

    Yes that is correct. However there is one slight difference with rented content, in that you need to transfer it to your iPad rather than simply sync. You can do this by selecting the rental in iTunes from the left hand side of the iTunes window and choosing the transfer option.
    Yes it will be transferred to the video app on your iPad.

When watching a movie, closed caption comes up and it wont go away unless I stop the movie and restart it.  Closed caption and sub titles are off but still comes up.  I restored my apple tv to factory settings to see if that would stop it, but it didn't work still comes up. What can I do?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check that no special effect or enhancement feature has been turned on on the TV itself.

    when watching rented movie the picture keeps freezing, in about 30 seconds it plays again

    I just started have this same/simmilar issue to.  Was there a solution to the original question?  I have 2 ATVs.  One works without issue, the other... kicks me out repeatedly... to the point where the content will load for about 3 sec before kicking me all the way out.  Tried all the trouble shooting options including: checking latest software update, reset, hard restart, and checking router download speed (over 50 Mbps on speedtest.net).  Should mention this occurs most frequently when downloading Netflix content, but the same issue occurs downloading other content like PBS.

  • "unknown error" when I try to update my ipad

    I get an "unknown error" when I try to update my ipad... no problem signing on at the website from a desktop, but can't update any programs or purchase any new ones in the apple store.

    Go to Settings>Store >Apple ID, tap your ID and sign out. Then reboot the iPad, Reboot 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.
    Then go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if the apps will update.

  • How to prevent the regular password prompts when watching a movie on my MacBook Air?

    Hello everyone.
    I recently started renting movies from the iTunes store and watched them on my MacBook Air since I don't have an appleTV. (In fact on my TV connected via HDMI cable to the MacBook but I think that doesn't change the cause)
    Now every now and then a automatic password prompt kicks in overlaying the movie, so I have to stand up each time and type in the administrator password in the middle of the movie. This happens maybe about every 30-45 mins. Needless to say this is extremely unpleasant when watching a movie. Unfortunately I cannot tell you which programm causes the prompt since I always close all other programms other than iTunes.
    Is there a way to temporarily prevent all automatic password prompts?
    I hope you can help me,
    Greetings jonezdotcom

    This is taken from Mac Help.  It should guide you in solving your issue.
    Changing the way users log in
    You can require users to enter a password to log in to your computer, or you can turn on automatic login, which automatically logs in a specified user each time the computer starts up.
    Automatic login is useful if you’re the only person who uses your computer, and the computer is always in a safe and secure place. If you have more than one user account on your computer, or if you’re concerned about the security of information on your computer, you should require users to log in with a password. Automatic login is not available for accounts that are using FileVault encryption.
    If you require users to log in, you can change what they see in the login window. You can show a list of users with a picture next to each name and a place to enter the password, or require users to enter both their user name and password.
    To change the way users log in:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Accounts.
    Open Accounts preferences
    Click the lock icon to unlock it, and then type an administrator name and password.
    Click Login Options.
    Do one of the following:
    To require users to log in whenever the computer starts up, choose Off from the “Automatic login” pop-up menu.
    To have the computer automatically log in to a particular account when the computer starts up, choose the account from the “Automatic login” pop-up menu, enter an administrator password, and click OK.
    IMPORTANT: Automatic login allows anyone to get immediate access to your computer simply by restarting it. If you turn on automatic login, make sure the computer doesn’t automatically log in to an account with administrator privileges.
    Next to the ”Display login window as,” select how you want the login window to appear:
    To have users select an account from a list in the login window, select “List of users.”
    To require users to type their user account name and password, select “Name and password.”
    To show each user’s password hint, select the “Show password hints” checkbox.
    If you turn on automatic login for yourself, the computer opens your account when it starts up. If you log out, other users see a login window to log in to their user accounts.
    The Login Options pane of Accounts preferences
    Use the Login Options pane of Accounts preferences to change the way the login window behaves to be more secure or set up the way users will log in to their accounts
    PREFERENCE EXPLANATION
    Automatic login
    To have the computer automatically log in to an account at startup, choose the account from the pop-up menu. This is less secure than requiring users to log in, since it allows anyone to use the computer just by turning it on.
    To require users to select an account and enter a password to log in, choose Off from the pop-up menu.
    Automatic login is not available for accounts that are using FileVault encryption.
    Display login window as
    Select “List of users” to have users choose their accounts from a list in the login window.
    Select “Name and password” to require users to type their name and password in the login window.

  • HT4095 Can I watch rented movies in my ipad 2 without internet connection.  I will be travelling by air and highway.  Ty

    Can I watch rented movies in my ipad 2 without internet connection?

    If you use iTunes to rent movies, then yes.
    iTunes movies downloaded and stored directly to your iPad and if you don't start playing a movie, stay on your iPad for 30 days.
    If you start to play a downloaded, rented movie on your iPad, then it will expire in 24 hours.
    Other services, like Amazon, Netflix and Hulu need an Internet connection to stream their content.

  • If you rent a movie through iTunes can you watch the movie on your iPad if you are not connected to internet or 3g

    If you rent a movie through iTunes, can you watch the movie on your iPad if you not in an area that does not have wifi or 3G access?  Such as on an airplane, etc...

    Yes - as long as the movie has totally and fully downloaded onto the iPad.
