Ipod won't play video/podcasts or audio only a black screen with the play symbol and volume/progress bar. games work fine! any ideas?

Ipod video classic 5th gen won't play video/podcasts or audio only a black screen with the play symbol and volume/progress bar. games work fine! any ideas?

Here's some more info.
I tried installing the latest iTunes to my housemate's PC, logging into iTMS with my account, authorizing his machine to play my content, restoring my iPod to the factory settings, downloading the videos and copying them to my iPod.
It worked fine, and I can play my videos.
I have done the exact SAME thing on my own home PC twice, after completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and the Apple Software Updater. But I still can't get any videos downloaded on my home PC to play on my iPods.
Any thoughts?

I just updated my Firefox, and now whenever I use Youtube, I only see black screens where the video should be, but I can still hear the sounds; what gives?

The Youtube pages load as normal, but as stated above, the player contains only a black screen, and the progress bar moves as usual when playing the clip, but I can only hear, and not see, the actual video.
Firefox version: 3.6.14
Windows Vista

Thanks so much for your reply fanboy20.
Yes, just made sure of that. I do have the latest version of Flash player. But I have just staggered upon the answer. Chalk it up to being a newbi. I was not putting my apple tv to sleep and it would not allow me to see
you tube on my computer while it was still operating on my TV. When I realized that, I put the apple tv to sleep and bingo, my computer runs you tube fine. Thanks again for your response.

HT4623 After installing the above mentioned update, my ipad will no longer turn on. I have just a black screen with the apple logo when I attach it to a power source. Anyone else having this problem, please advise on how to fix.

I shut off my ipad, and now I have had a black screen with the "busy wheel" spinning for 3hours. Can't turn it off, can't get it to turn on! Is there a reset button somewhere?

I shut of my Ipad and now i have a black screen with the "busy wheel" spinning on a black screen for 4 hours! Can't shut it off, can't turn it on!!! Is there a reset button somewhere?

HI,
Reset iPad.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appear

How do I restore the websites in a New Tab? All that I have is a black screen with the Edit button.

I go to a website that I want to save with others in the New Tab and right click add to top sites. Nothing happens. The New Tab was very helpful in going to sites that I don't include in the bookmark toolbar.
In the New Tab screen I used to have about 15 images of websites that I could click on one to go to that site. I could easily add to, delete, or re-arrange the images.

hello, have you used an extension to get this behaviour in the past? firefox has introduced its own new tab page with 9 of the most visited pages (they are customizable though). maybe this is interfering with the addon. please refer to the following article in order to use the new feature in firefox: [[New Tab Page – show, hide and customize top sites]]
or in case you want to continue using your existing addon please consult its website or developer in order to configure it correctly to replace the inbuilt new tab page....

My ipad air will not turn on. There is only a black screen and the spinny wait thing keeps going. Nothing works. HELP!

The screen on my ipad air is black with the waiting, spinny thing circling around annd around. Every once in a while the apple comes on, but then goes back to the spinny thing. We tried holding down the two buttons together and plugging it in to itunes to do a factory reset but it says we need the password. We can't get to the screen to do the password so nothing can be done... help!

Try Recovery Mode.

HT201263 I downloaded IOS 6 fine, but have been stuck in reboot for over 5 hours. All I have is a black screen with the loading icon at the bottom. What should I do?

Help! I downloaded IOS6 onto my iPhone 4. The download went fine, but I have been stuck on the reboot sction of my phone for over 6 hours. I started the process at 10:30 PM EST, it is now 5:13 AM EST. What should I do? The nearest Apple Store is hours away.

I beg to differ. I didn't miss any point about the button being held in but you did miss the point that disengaging the earthing does make a difference at times . . .
What I wrote was. . . . . . "and maybe switch the power off the computer, or pull out the power plug, keeping it out for about ten seconds before the restart ? That, you will note, is a plus to the correct information!"
One more time, the Mac is ungrounded (no earth), the magsafe (in countries like the UK) has a 3 pin plug but there is still no earth connection beyond the ac adaptor, after that it is Dc positive / negative. Regardless of the foregoing off is off, no current flows!

I opened iPhoto this morning and all I have is a black screen with the circle thing that says it is working going on. It says the program is in Slideshow (at the bottom) I have treid restarting, opening iPhoto andtrying to change display, etc.

I cannot get iPhoto to open. It "opens" in Slideshow which shows that it is "working" but no pictures show, I cannot get out of slideshow. I cannot see my pictures although if I tell Picasa to import photos from iPhoto it does so I assume they are there...

1. Back up your Library now. You don't use iPhoto to back it up, you can do it simply by dragging the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder to the External Disk
2.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

When I create an album and then try to watch it in slideshow, I get only a black screen with a white title. No photos come up. Also when I click on an individual photo in the album, I get a white exclamation point on a black background but no big photo.

When I create an album of photos and then open the album and try to watch it by selecting "slideshow" I get only a black screen. The white title comes up briefly but then no photos, only a black screen. Also when I go back to the album and click on a thumbnail, up comes a big white exclamation point on a black background instead of the enlarged photo. Any idea what's going on?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.

Hi,
I would try a Safe Boot first. (This will take longer than a normal Boot and you will need to Restart afterwards).
If it were an older OS I would also suggest going to System Preferences > Displays and making sure the display is set to Millions. (My MacBook Pro does not have this option in Snow Leopard so I did presume Snow Leopard does not have it).
With some laptops there have been some issues with the cable up the back of the screen pulling loose with regular and frequent use of the lid, but this will not apply to you based on your specs. (it does take time to appear and is also somewhat rare). However it seems enough contact with the camera can make it appear in System Profiler and power it on but not give a pic.
If a Safe Boot does not work I would also try a PRAM reset.
Shut down the computer.
Restart it holding down Apple/CMD (or ⌘)+ALT( ⌥)+P+R Keys until you have heard three Start Up Bongs.
This is actually "less" destructive in that it clears less memory items than Safe Boot but they are different enough to warrant trying.
Do you have an older version of iGlasses installed ?
The one for Leopard does not work for Snow Leopard.
Do you have Web Browser open ?
This may point to Google Video Chat Plug-in and Flash Conflict. It would be rare to allow another app to access the camera even if not displayiong a Pic.
(Chrome Installs the Plug-in as does the standalone download).
Knowing what "any application" exactly you are trying might help us pin it down.
Any additional downloaded apps that can use the camera ?
Do you happen to have something balck in front of the camera ?

I restarted my phone and now I am having problems with it. It will turn on but only goes to the black screen with the droid eye before shutting off again and trying to restart, what can I do to fix that?

I'm sorry to learn that your phone is having problems starting up, marinema08. I'm sorry if this is incorrect, but are you using the original HTC Droid Incredible or a later Droid Incredible model? Please try placing your phone in Safe Mode to see if you are able to move past the Droid eye. http://vz.to/1kdQWVI If you are able to enable Safe Mode, please try deleting any recent applications you have added.

I get a black screen on the camera app on my iPod touch? Is there a solution? Resetting only helped for a few days, problem comes back.

Camera works, with the side buttons it takes pictures.
Although I'm not able to see on the screen.

First try a restore from backup
If problem still occurs try a restore to factory defaults/new Pod.
If still occurs likely a hardware problem and an appoitment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My Macbook pro has the message on a black screen need the reboot disc then press any key to continue. Any Ideas, because I have no discs.

Was this a dark gray screen that appeared with the message to restart the computer in five different languages? If so that's a kernel panic. It would help if you can post the panic log: Mac OS X- How to log a kernel panic. Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on diagnosing kernel panics.

My ipad 2 turnes to black screen with the apple icon in the middle, it just hanged and i have to restart it?! so why this is happening ?! is there is an error or something i can do to prevent doing this ?!

my new ipad 2 turnes to black screen with the apple icon in the middle while using it or if i just left it locked for a while, it just hanged and i have to restart it?! so why this is happening ?! is there is a productio error or something i can do to prevent doing this ?!
Appreciate responding as soon as possible.

No, it's definitely not normal. Your User's Guide recommends a series of troubleshooting steps to go through when your iPad is misbehaving: As you're already in effect doing the first of the main steps, a Restart of your iPad, and that's not curing it, move on to the next .. a Reset.
To do this, press and hold both the Home and the Sleep/Wake buttons for about 10-12 seconds, until the display blanks and the red Power Off slider appears. Continue holding the buttons until the slider disappears, replaced by the black screen and white Apple logo.
This shows your iPad is starting to reboot. Release the buttons and allow the process to continue until the Lock screen appears again, then slide the slider to complete the process.
