How do I turn my video settings on to play a movie on the tv?

I have a red, yellow, white adaptor to connect my iPad to the tv to play movies. The directions say to turn the video output to "on" to be able to play the video on the television. When I go to video settings this is not an option. Does anyone know how I can get a video to play on the tv. I have an old tv too. So no wifi is available on it. This adaptor was working a few weeks ago when I last used it to watch midnight in Paris.

Some videos that are purchased from the iTunes store require HDCP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hdcp) It's standard on HDMI and Blu-Ray players. If the video can't communicate with the device it's hooked up to, it will not play.
Since the composite cable you're using can't transmit HDCP (only HDMI cables can), you won't be able to play that video. This is a video-to-video selection, made by the studios.

    my ipad is stuck in video mode, and how do I get back into still photo?  Pressing or tapping photo or square does nothinh.

    you are talking about the camera app?  Instead of tapping or pressing, slide.  just touch the word photo (or square) and slide towards the shutter.

    The lock button on my phone wont work, now, I have the AssistiveTouch on to lock and shut off the phone, however, how would I turn it back on afterwards? Could I just use the home button? I don't want to test it and end up with a shut off phone that cannot be turned on again...

  • How can I get Normal video settings back

    Before I launch into describing the problem, I thought I would tell you that I really had hoped it would have been a common problem, and therefore went through about 12 pages of topics and problems before I decided to open a new topic. The closest thing I found was from someone who apparently experienced part of my problem - a shifting of the screen.
    What I really need to know in lieu of a specific solution to the specific problem is to know how to get back to Default settings for monitor display. Something I did screwed things up. I am not even sure precisely what I did to mess it up, because I actually did several things that could have contributed. But, the end result of what I did was that my screen font display looks wierd, and not normal. I have an ATI video card, and I hit Detect display, so it flashed off and then back on. What is the setting that the display is normally set on. I have tried various solutions, but can't seem to get back to where it once was. I would presume that a reinstall of OS X would do the trick but that seems too radical of a solutioni. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi-
    What is the setting that the display is normally set on
    You didn't say what display you are using.
    Try a new user account. Everything will be at default in the new account.

  • How do I turn off video autoplay in Internet Explorer?

    I do not want any kind of videos or animations to play unless I choose to click on the "Play" button.
    This includes Flash, HTML5, GIF, MP4, or any type of video that may be invented.
    What would be ideal is to have a new set of controls in Internet Options that would allow the user to control/override the video controls in all web pages.
    For example, HTML5 has the <video> ... </video> element that has certain attributes:
    autobuffer
    autoplay
    controls
    loop
    The user should be able to control each these attributes on a global basis for all web pages. For example:
    Control Panel
    Internet Options
    Advanced tab
    Video options (new category)
    autobuffer - yes or no (new option)
    autoplay - yes or no (new option)
    controls - yes or no (new option)
    loop - yes or no (new option)

    Hi,
    web designers make the choice to annoy you or not with autoplay or scripted autoplay content.
    Contact the website administrators to make your complaints or add the sites to your IE Restricted sites zone which will stop some annoyances but not all... Ensure also that you have turned on Tracking Protection and ActiveX Filtering (Tools menu in IE).
    Possibly a developer could create an extension for IE that would do all that you want sites not to do, but I don't know of any, and generally recommend addons free browsing.
    Post general questions about IE to http://answers.microsoft.com. Include with your questions the full address of any websites you are having issues with. This allows the support engineers to visit the problem sites
    to investigate and make recommendations.
    this forum was for questions about html, css and scripting for website developers using MSIE browsers.
    Regards.

  • How do I turn on video, pano, etc?

    New iPhone 5s, when I tru to turn on video or pano, they wond turn on. Secret button?

    If the previews are part of a website, could you provide a link to the page that isn't working correctly? Also, I will paste some general suggestions below.
    If the previews were part of a video download list, do you know which add-on it is? Some of them may need to be updated for Firefox 26 and late due to the changes in the way downloads are listed.
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
