I'm having trouble viewing video's on my macbook.

Greetings all.
I have a macbook and for some reason, I've been having trouble viewing online video's. And it happens with all sites, youtube, dog world, ect.
The video stops and has that circle in the center, then plays a little more, then stops again. I have version 10.6.8. I don't believe it is my internet connection, i can watch video's on my ipad.
Thanks,
Brad Doyle

Try playing at a lower resolution if that option is available (for example, in youtube the controls are in the lower right of the video window). Some sites, particularly youtube, seem to have problems playing some (not all) videos at 720p and 1080p.

Anyone having trouble viewing video taken with my iPhone 4s on my pc.

The video looks fine on my phone then when I go to view it on my computer it lags and skips around, is it just that my computer is having a hard time supporting the QuickTime HD video?

You should be importing these to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.
Open iphoto, connect iphone, import photos/vids

Having trouble viewing video feed on security camera since iOS7 installed

Has anyone else noticed that when checking security camera feed on the iphone, it does not display the video? wasn't having that problem before the new OS.

When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

Having trouble viewing videos on a pc that were taken from an ipad2. Do I need to convert them before emailing? Is so, with what program?

I tried to send a video I took with my ipad2 camera to family and friends. They all have pc's and have emailed back telling me they can't find a progrsm to open the file. Do I need to convert the videos before I email them or is there an app for this? Have only had my ipad for about a week so all of this is new for me.

Thanks. Sent them a link to download free quicktime. Hope it works.

Trouble viewing videos taken with iPhone 4s on Windows laptop

I am having trouble viewing videos taken with my iPhone 4s on my Windows laptop. Here are my versions:
Windows 7
IOS 6.1.3
iTunes 11.0.3.0.42
Quicktime 7.7.4
The videos I am unable to play have been copied from my iPhone cache folder into another folder. The first issue I noticed was the thumbnail for the videos are rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise in both folders. The videos were taken with the camera in the portrait position, as opposed to the camera being held sideways or the landscape position.
I tried to play the videos using iTunes and an error saying " iTunes has stopped working. Checking for a solution". Then I get, "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Sadly, no solution has been sent to me.
If I try to use QuickTime, the videos "attempt" to play but the audio skips and locks or the video skips and locks. Eventually, the video completely stops. Also, there is a green bar on the left of the screen the runs from top to bottom. This bar is not visible in any other views of the videos.
If I try to use Windows Media Player, the videos play great, except they are rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise, like the thumbnails.
All of the videos still play perfectly on my iPhone 4s.
Thank you all in advance for your help.

One week and 41 views later, no one has a fix for this? Or is no one else encountering this issue??
Come on Apple! Step in on this one.

How are you connected to the internet? Is it high speed?
How much RAM do you have? Is it maxed out?
Make sure you have the latest & greatest of the following installed:
Flip4Mac
VLC Media Player
Perian (AVI and FLV support)
Adobe Flash Player Software
When done installing, repair permissions and restart your comp.

Having Trouble viewing YouTube on your older machine?

Hi Apple forums! today I have a tip for all pepople having trouble viewing YouTube on older machines, say you go to YouTube.com, and you start playing a video, but the frame rate is very slow? so what now? do you just abandon your iBook clamshell and leave it on the closet so spiders eat them up? NO, today, finally there is a solution for all to view YouTube without using the flash player, which slows the old machines down, and opening the video out side YouTube, on a bit lower quaily, but still good quality, this works with all versions of Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X, and even Mac OS 8.6, here is how:
Make sure you have the real player installed or any player that will open up 3gp files, Open up Interner Explorer 5 under Mac OS 9, if no Mac OS 9, iCab, OR any browser that will allow you to open the real player. Since we are not using the normal version of YouTube, BUT the Mobile version, you will go to m.Youtube.com, then you can search any video avaliable on the mobile YouTube network, once you are in video`s page, you must Click "Watch Video" and then, Internet Explorer will open up the real player.
And Voila! you have just opened a YouTube video outside YouTube so you can view it nicely, say on a 250Mhz System!
Now, there are some notes, some times the video wont play, and also, not all 100% of the videos on the normal YouTube will be avaliable.
And thats it, thats how you will make your iBook G3 more usable now!
of course, I did this with Mac OS 10.3, so some one has to verify this with a vesrion of Mac OS 9, OR Mac OS 8.5.
I am spreading the word about this tip because I know those people who have those old PowerBook G3s and iBook G3s want to watch YouTube, but cant.
Thanks!

Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player.

I am having trouble viewing iStore. It appears as if its a Flash issue, as several minutes after logging in to iStore I get a non-flash page of iStore in my iTunes window. I have re-installed everything and tried opening all ports in router....any ideas?

I have re-installed everything and tried opening all ports in router, and used msconfig to bring up each service individually to see if there is an effect.Flash and iTunes have been re-installed ...any ideas?

I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

Perhaps if you provide details of what you are doing we can provide more precise help.

I'm having trouble with video imported from my camera memory card.

I'm having trouble with video imported from my camera memory card.The video breaks up and pixelizes when it's directly imported from the memory card. That makes the video useless. Why does this happen? It doesn't do that in any other video editing software. Thanks for the help.

More info please:
Type of camera?
Was the card formatted in the camera doing the shooting?
Type of files the camera is set to record?

I am having trouble viewing the entire content of a PDF opened with adobe reader on my ipad.

I am having trouble viewing the entire content of a PDF opened with adobe reader on my ipad. Mi am able to view the file in its entirety on my Mac but not on my ipad. I have tried saving it to acrobat but that doesn't work either. Any suggestions please.

Hi,
When you say the entire content, do you mean some parts of the pdf are not getting displayed or is it going out of the screen?
Please send a pdf you are having issues with on chmaheshatadobedotcom, it will help us investigating the problem.

I'm having trouble viewing PDF forms in a browser

When I go to a business site for a manual and the format is using pdf, after viewing I cannot go back to previous page using the back button or the arrow back. It keeps returning to the pdf manual I was viewing. I have to click the arrow twice or three times to return to back page and sometimes when clicking to many times it return to the beginning page. This has been happening to almost all pdf forms used by businesses or any other websites. Is there something I have tochange in settings?

Hi Snakedog777,
How frustrating! What web browser are you using? Do you run into the same troubles when viewing PDF files on other browsers? And does the problem only exist with PDF forms--or are you having trouble viewing any PDF files?
For starters, please see Acrobat Help | Display PDF in browser | Acrobat, Reader XI for information about configuring your browser.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

i'm having trouble viewing pdf files in safari.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
