Has the play button in album view stopped working?
The play button in album view doesn't work. Hasn't worked for the last two releases. I'm on iTunes 11.1.1. Apple suggested reloading all of my CDs. (Not a viable solution--there are hundreds of them...) They thought it might have something to do with recent changes related to AppleID/iCloud. Also unable to add entire album to up next list. I am able to play from songs view.
Never mind. Found the answer here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/21484039#21484039
User error, but I'm not alone...

Does the home button of iPhone 5 stop working over a period of time?
I'd purchased an iPhone 4 when it was released. After using it for 8 months the home button had stopped working. Then i found out that its a common problem in the iPhone 4. Is it the same with Iphone 5?
I've never had a problem with any iPhone I've had, nor has anyone I know. But being a mechanical device, parts are going to break. That's why there's a warranty.

The middle button on my iphone stopped working and i think it is stuck down because whenever i restart it the voice command thing comes right up, like when you hold the middle button down for a few seconds. How do i make it work again?
If this has happened more than once the problem is likely on your PC.

I have noticed an issue with utilizing the “stream” function on iOS 7. If you choose to just stream the movie by hitting the play button it seems to actually start downloading (which is fine) but if you are say halfway thru the movie and stop you can clearly see that storage has been reduced under the usage, yet under the “videos” tab it still states “No Data” the only way to delete what you have partially downloaded is to fully download the video, which is fine but there is no way to tell what videos have been partially downloaded (I.e which occurs a lot when your child switches between movies using the so called “stream” function). This becomes troublesome once the capacity of the ipad is almost met and you have no way to delete this data since you may have several videos that have started to be viewed (hence partially downloaded). Apple needs to somehow make it truly streaming or provide an update so the storage can be managed. The only way I have been able to remove partially downloaded videos is by doing a total software restore. (The video data that is in question when connected to my MacBook shows up in iTunes as “other”) if you have any insight into this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Here are the screenshots for what it's worth.
Not sure why I can't post them in the original post.<br>

'''Again, when I set my DNS server to automatically detect the servers both problems disappear and I have no issues at all.'''
IMO opendns is either doing this on purpose (unlikely) or they're under some sort of attack/being used to attack the specific torrent sites although I'm open to other explanations. I believe using the automatic setting for DNS is using my own ISP's DNS servers (which again, work fine... but still...)
I'd rather not use Google's public DNS servers as Google is to commercial these days and I think there's potential privacy issues.
'''Again I have changed the setting for DNS servers back and forth several times to duplicate/verify the issue(s)... and the issues only happen with the opendns servers.''' -
I downloaded a movie, but when I go to play it the play button to typically start it is the "stop" button instead. How do I fix this?
Are you getting an "iTunes has stopped working" message after the black, screen? Or is something a bit different going on?

Best of luck. -
I can't link up the play button in Encore
I just want one button, THE PLAY Button.
The project has no errors and will allow a build.
Then When I add a button It will not link.If you added a background, you must have a menu. So I'm going to assume you have the very basic question of how you link a button to a timeline. See screenshots.
On the left is the project panel, with a menu, an asset (the video file with the .wmv extension), and a timeline. The middle panel is the menu viewer, where one of the buttons is selected. The right panel is the properties panel where you can see the properties of the selected object, here a button.
In the first screenshot, the section for "Link" is empty. In the second screenshot, you can see that the "pickwhip" has been used to drag from the link to the timeline. (You link to a timeline, not to the asset.) In the third screenshot, you can see the button properties for link, now shows the timeline.

Function of the PLAY button versus the ENTER button
Hello gang,
I had a quick DVD / DVDSP related question that I've been trying to get a definitive answer for, and I've had great luck and some very helpful responses over in the Final Cut forum so I figured I'd give it a shot.
Anyways, I'm editing some video and authoring a DVD for a group who intend to make an instructional DVD. It's divided into about five chapters and each one begins with some sort of voiceover and text/graphics. In the opening segment of the DVD, there is a voiceover that explains the way to navigate through the DVD and select chapters, etc. etc. The voiceover has already been written and recorded, but I have some concerns about the power they have designated for the "Play" button. Here is an excerpt:
"We use the PLAY button in a couple of ways: to select and play an item that is currently highlighted in a list of items on the screen..."
and also:
"Almost all DVD remotes have a set of buttons that are arranged like a set of arrows (or triangles) pointing to the top, bottom, right and left of the remote control. These keys are used to move the selection pointer on menus presented on the screen. When an item is selected, it is highlighted to distinguish it from the other items in the list that are not selected. Once you have moved the selection point to the item you want, push the PLAY button to actually select and begin playback on that item."
Now here is my concern– I was under the impression that the "Enter" button was typically used to select menu items, etc. I decided to test this on some commercial DVDs I had lying around, and it seems that the Play button does in fact work to select items. I had always assumed it was assigned just one specific role, for example playing the main title on a DVD.
I looked it up in the DVDSP manual and this is all I found:
"A button is selected when the viewer navigates to
it. Only one button at a time can be in the selected state. The selected button becomes
activated when the viewer presses the remote control’s Enter button. Depending on the
button type, highlights or layers are used to indicate each button’s state."
I couldn't find anything regarding the function of the Play button. I suppose my question is this: do these instructions sound okay? Are they universal? Can the Play button be used to select menu items on EVERY DVD player? I am only really stressing about this because this DVD is being targeted towards senior citizens, many of whom have extremely limited knowledge of DVD technology. I'd like to come up with the most universal, simple, and solid instructions for navigation through the DVD.
Okay, thank you in advance. I appreciate any comments or advice you might be able to offer.
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)Ah yes, Jake, but which UOP? Surely, you've seen me address this issue of there not being a Play UOP before?
The project can be set up for Play to be Enter on a very high percentage of players, but it would be good with Christopher’s project to get the announcer to add "and Enter".
The way it works is make sure that the "Still Off" user Op in DVD Studio Pro's Advanced Playback Controls is unchecked. DVD SP started making this default UOP denial in recent versions, which will mess up the Play remote key on a lot of players, including the Apple DVD player.
And it would be good to take notes here Jake, since you do some Scenarist authoring. This Play remote key could bite you big time, if you're not careful (I've rescued two good authors who had trouble with what I'm about to describe; luckily, we caught it before it was submitted for replication).
Still Off, which is what a lot of DVD player manufacturers map their play remote key if they don't directly map it to "Enter", when the DVD player is in infinite pause mode, i.e., the state a cell/program is in when displaying a still menu, causes the menu PGC to execute it's post command area (leave the PGCs still phase).
A check of DVD SP's abstraction layer will show that navigation out of the post command area of all DVD SP's menu PGCs is determined by the current value of SPRM 8, the last selected/activated button. All of DVD SP's menu domain buttons are "LinkTail PGC" commands, so the effect of Operating Play is identical to activating a button with Enter, in the case of Still Off being the trigger.
This can be verified by setting a button command in AfterEdit to jump somewhere directly which is different location than it was set in DVD SP. With the Still Off user op enabled, hit Play on the selected button and find that the original command in DVD SP will execute. But hit enter on the same button, and navigation will go to your test location. This is how it works on many players (you can check it out right in the Apple player).
So it's good for spec based authors to use LinkTail PGC, which most do, on their menu button commands for still menus (in single PGCs), just in case users use Play instead of Enter in those players; or navigation can get pretty wacky! Or, if you don’t use LinkTail for the menus’ button commands, then it would be good to at least provide for code in the PGCs post command area to receive navigation in this case. But LinkTail has lots of other advantages, which is why it's used so much.
With motion menus, Most players map the play remote key to "Enter", well, except the Apple DVD player. It turns the Play remote key to a Pause key during motion, so Christopher’s viewers would definitely be out of luck there.
All that said, the play remote key should not be depended on as the primary for bullet-proof navigation, as you said.
Take care,
Trai -
Where has the visualizer button gone?
where has the visualizer button gone in the bottom right corner?
bit of a pain as i used it quite ofteniTunes 7 is pretty smart overall, nevertheless I have a few serious gripes with the interface. Firstly the little 'snowflake' icon on the bottom right that switches on the visuals has been replaced by the browse and burn icons. Was there a problem with the previous layout? My wife and I use that button everytime we turn on the visuals on our Mac Mini sound system in the living room. It was super convenient because you could move in a single mouse sweep from selecting a playlist to switching on visuals. With iTunes 7 you have to either select from the pop-down menu or switch to the keyboard and press cmd+T. It might not seem such a big deal to some but it's definitely a backwards step, no matter how small.
The album art selector/display is very cool and niftily programmed however I'll never use it. The reason? Because if you fill it with album artwork, all those images are displayed over the visualiser at the start of each tune, which I HATE. I don't want sleeve designs ruining the beauty of G-Force which I paid good money to see. It's bad enough having the track info show when I already know what's playing! iTunes 7 is simply not configurable enough if you ask me, and hey, you shouldn't have to start configuring Fkeys to make up for the fundemental lack of choice in the program preferences.
I have a pal who loves the gapless playback in the new iTunes 7 because it's great for mix cds. Well maybe that's the best playback feature of iTunes 7 but I'm afraid it doesn't make up for the loss of the visualiser button, so there!

When listening to the Apple-provided Podcast App on my iPad Mini, the moment I plug in my ear buds, the playback stops and no amount of tapping the play button will restart the playback. Then, when I unplug the ear buds, the play button functions normally. This has only begun since I updated to the new IOS 7.2
Regards...Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode. -

I cannot activate the play button on a video in firefox using the keyboard
I am blind and use a screen-reader called JAWS For Windows to navigate the internet. Because I am blind I cannot use a mouse and rely on the keyboard to navigate and interact with web pages. I tend to play a lot of video for business reasons. I can, using internet explorer, navigate to and press the play button in websites such as Youtube. However this is not possible using firefox. I sometimes have occasion to use video download helper and in order to download I have to play the video first and unless there is someone around who can click the play button with a mouse I cannot do this. Any ideas? I have tried on two different computers, 1 is a netbook running IE8 with Windows 7 starter edition and the other is a desktop running Windows XP Home SP3. I would much prefer to be using firefox on a permanent basis as it also gives me access to a plugin which deals with Captcha Images.
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.
Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
*"View > Toolbars"
Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
*View > Toolbars > Customize
*Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout
*Check that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the toolbar palette in the customize window to the Bookmarks Toolbar
*If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them back from the Customize window on the toolbar
*If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

IMovie HD movie has no Play buttons.. partially frozen
IMovie HD movie has no Play buttons.. partially frozen/ please help. It is only with a particular movie which is both on an external hard drive and on the computer.
Hi
there are two - most probably origin to this
• use of strange media eg .avi, .wmv .mp4 etc.
(not from miniDV tape Camera - as iMovie up to HD6 is made for)
Convert video to - streamingDV and
audio to .aiff 48kHz 16-bit (no .mp3 etc)
• corruption - eg iMovie pref file or preferences
Trash iMovie plist file
Repair Permissions
Usually helps here
Else
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather be 25Gb or more
• Delete iMovie pref file
iMovie pref file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named. (one or more of these)
com.apple.iMovie.plist
com.apple.iMovie3.plist
com.apple.iMovie7.plist
com.apple.iMovie8.plist
and find
com.apple.iApps.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
• Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Garageband-fix. Start it, Play a note and Close it. Re-try (Corrects an audio problem that hinders iMovie)
• Screen must be set to Million-colors
• Turn off Mac and disconnect Mains/Power for 20-30 minutes - will at least re-set FW-port
• Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08 or 09)
• Problems in iPhoto Library can affect iMovie to crash on start-up. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie.
This You do by
_ close iPhoto
_ on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
_ now select all five options presented
_ WAIT a long long time
• iMovie updated ?
• QuickTime updated ?
• Mac OS version ?
• Program miss-match. iMovie 4 - will not work under Leopard
• Program miss-match. iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
• Program miss-match. iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (will work under Leopard and Snow-Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iMovie’08 v. 7.1.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (will work under Leopard and Snow-Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iMovie’09 v. 8.0.6, Mac OS X.5.8 AND QuickTime 7.6.4 - is OK (will work under Leopard and Snow-Leopard)
From LKN 1935. (in this case = iMovie HD (5), I tried it all, but nothing worked.
Your answer (above) has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that
there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled
iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos)
to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before.

I run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac.
