I need to record a video while music app is playing

HI, I couldn't find the answer anywhere, and maybe it's not a common question.
I need to record a video with the camera app, but I need the music app (or whatever app, like spotify) to keep playing the song in the background, because I want to record the song as well. But the default behavior, when you choose video mode, is to stop the music from playing.
I am asking this because the iPad is the only thing I got with me at the moment, so I need everything done with it (the music playing and the camera recording)
Is that even possible, or the default behavior cannot be bypassed?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help Demo.
I am gonna have to find another way to do this then, because the iMovie solution is not exactly what I need, and I was imagining that the default behavior could not be override.
Thanks again

    How come although iPads are getting more powerful, the iOS apps from apple are so mediocre and just not that great? We spend all this money for the latest ipad and all we get is these $5 video and music apps from apple. Why create the iOS platform and only offer so so apps like IMovie and GarageBand ? While other developers are offering much better apps like pinnacle studio for video, Cubasis and Auria for music production, apple has not showed much growth in terms of innovation. While there's nothing wrong with making an app like GarageBand where "anyone " can make a song, how about something for real musicians or an app not so basic as it get for video editing? After spending 0ver $700 on an ipad I'd be willing to spend more than $5 for a better video or audio app.

    First, try a system reset although I can't give you any confidence.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Playing videos on Music app.

    Since I downloaded upgrade, I cannot see music videos on Music app.  I can see them one by one on the Video app, but when I create a playlist in order to shuffle the videos (for when I run), they cannot be seen.  I can see them on iTunes and Video app, but not on playlist.  I can see them when I click add and done, they come up as if I were deleting them with the red circle next to them.  When I click done again (not selecting to delete), the list goes blank and I cannot select them.  I might sell my iPod and switch to another player if this is not fixed.

    I agree with you G-Daddy. I just bought Alpocolypse and it has several music videos at the end. On my iPhone it will play all of the songs and then play the music videos. Not so on the iPad.
    Someone will probably make an App for that, if Apple lets it through.

  • I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen

    I can't get my player to play videos while other apps are open IPAD 4gen
    Whenever, I have pages open or any other app I press the home button twice, and then I swipe to the right and obtain the menu that allows me to alter brightness or sound. At this point I press play and nothing works. However, once I go back to my youtube page, and press the play button then it works. If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

    just click the serial number in itunes ... geeze... just kidding
    you might be able to find it on the mac...
    in finder do your username under places then library then application support then MobileSync then Backups
    the shortest folder name should be the UDID
    of course that assumes it ever made a backup...
    if it made more than one there will be some -date-blah on the end...

  • Music app stops playing for a few seconds then starts

    After updating to lollipop the music app would play for a few minutes then stops for a few seconds then play again, did not have issue with kitkat. Help please.

    It's back!!!!!! The problem went away for a few days now same issue. It only happens when I am listening to sound files on the headphones - sudden pause then restart in the middle of playing the sound file, this happens with different music/podcase apps. No issue with bluetooth streaming or speaker phone. So it appears there is a software bug with Lollipop update - never had this problem with KitKat. Factory reset does not fix it. I wish there was a way to revert the phone back to KitKat. Hoping the new Lollipop update would fix this.

  • How to record screen video with sound but not playing while its recording

    Hi, I'm trying to figure out a smart way to record some video lectures using my computer. I note that the Quicktime player is able to do that, but it confines your screen to a certain size so anything that falls into that screen capture zone will be recorded which is fine as i get a separate monitor soon so i can just chuck it one side to record while I'm doing other work.
    But what im still trying to figure out is how the sound can also be simultaneously recorded by the software (be it Quicktime or not) and yet not be playing out loud on the speakers so i can do my work and not get distracted by that.
    Any line-in or some clever way to do that?
    Windows options also possible using parallels if anyone has a solution

    Hey Jeffrey,
    The easy solution to this is through the utilization of SoundFlower (Completely free).
    Here are two tutorials that will guide you through the process of capturing your System's Sound as well as recording whatever is playing on the screen:

  • I updated my iPod touch 4th generation from the latest iOS 4 update (i think maybe iOS 4.3.5 or something like that) to iOS 5.1.1 and my Photos, Videos, contacts, music, App data, etc. was deleted. How can I all the data back?

    I updated my iPod touch 4th generation from the latest iOS 4 update (i think maybe iOS 4.3.5 or something like that) to iOS 5.1.1. I updated to iOS 5.1.1 on a Windows XP Home Edition with the Service Pack 3 installed on the Windows XP (which I believe is the latest version). After updating, I unplugged my iPod from the computer. I saw that all my photos and videos were on my iPod, but there were no apps. A window popped up and told me to enter a passcode for my iPod. I entered a passcode. I then locked my iPod and entered what I thought to be the correct passcode, but my iPod remained unlocked. Desperate, I tried many passcodes with failure. After a while, my iPod became disabled for a long time. I decided to reset my iPod. After I reseted it, I chose to reset from my earlier back up. After reseting, my computer loaded on all my apps. But, when I started using my iPod, I realized all my photos, videos, music, app data (like game saves and high scores), etc. were gone! I have no idea what to do and I am very stressed about this! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME GET ALL MY STUFF BACK!!!!!!

    Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
    When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
    Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
    It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.

  • How to put a video into Music.app?

    I'm using an iOS 5.1 iPhone. A music video can appear both in Video.app and Music.app. How to make a regular video become like that? (Actually it's a music video, but iPhone don't know that.) I want to listen to that video.

    Change it to a Music Video in iTunes on your computer.

  • IMovie videos freezing, music continues to play?

    I'm creating a montage of some videos on iMovie with a song as the backing track, however I've hit a brick wall of sorts because I can no longer add videos without the clip I add freezing.  The music continues to play, but the video I add just freezes.  It doesn't matter what video clip I add (I've tried a few in case it was the clip that was causing the problem) but it happens to all of them.  The rest of the video plays fine.  I've made plenty of videos like this before and I've never faced this problem so I have no idea what it could be!  Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

    That's normal and as designed. The song will play out. You can pause it by pressing one of the volume buttons or use an app like 'Stop the Music' to completely exit the player.

  • Videos and Music will not play using Safari or Chrome

    I have tried every trouble shooting option I can find on the internet. Nothing is working. Adobe is fully updated. Safari is fully updated. Chrome is fully updated. Videos will not play on websties such as CNN, CBC. Music will not play on websites such as Sound Cloud.
    YouTube and Netflix work fine.

    You're dealing with two different plug-ins.

      If you can't hear tracks on SoundCloud using Safari, please go to Safari ---> Preferences ---> Advanced ---> and un-check "Stop plugins to save power." Like this:
    If YouTube works, it may be doing so in HTML5 mode which requires no plug-in. Do you use Apple's Firewall or (please say you don't) anti-virus?

  • 3rd party music app to play iTunes?

    I'm looking for a 3rd party music app to replace the updated music app; any suggestions?
    I listen to music constantly on public transportation and the app is garbage now.  I try and forward to the next song while shuffling and consistently hit the volume control instead, which is right below. I am a little sick of having my eardrums blown.
    The artist view takes far too long if you have multiple albums.
    If I can't replace the app I will replace the phone.

  • After recent update to ios8 my music apps wont play but are still on my phone any help much welcome please

    hi people I just upgraded my iphone5 last night to ios8 everything went smooth until today when I tried my music apps and none of them work? Any help welcome guys you how much you need music on the iphone Cheers

    Hey there Steamboat14,
    It sounds like you are unable to use 3rd party music apps on your phone after you udpated to iOS 8. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article for each app affected in this way, named:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    Restart the app
    Close the app and open it again.
    Restart your device
    Turn the device off and on.
    Update your device software and your apps
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS.
    Update your apps:
    Open the App Store and tap Updates.
    If updates are available, tap Update All.
    If asked, enter your Apple ID password. The updates will download and install.
    You might need a Wi-Fi connection to update some apps.Reinstall the app
    Remove the app from your device and reinstall it. Remember that deleting an app also deletes its data.
    Delete the app.
    Press the Home button.
    Go to the App Store and download the app again.
    Wait for the app to download, then open it from the Home screen.
    If the download stops, you can resume it.Contact the developer
    If you see the issue again, contact the developer of the app for help:
    Find the app in the App Store.
    Tap the app and tap Reviews.
    Tap App Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Music app not playing my music at all!

    After updating to ios5 my music app is not working. I have two iPads, one 64gb wifi and one 32gb 3G. One has 40 gb of music and the other has 20gb music. When I attempt to play the music it keeps jumping randomly to different songs. None of the songs actually play. I have removed the music from the iPads and reloaded them several times and I have factory rest the iPads and reloaded ios5. None of this fixed the issue. Additionally there is a portion of my storage space on each iPad called other and it is way too big, taking up about 25% of my storage space. Further, the sync to reload the music is taking about 24 hours. I have tries to sync wireless as well as wired. I sync to a MacBook pro 2009 with lion 10.7.2 and latest iTunes.

    I seem to be having the exact same problem after upgrading to IOS5 on my iPad 2 64GB 3G.  I'm syncing against a Win 7 64-bit system with all the latest patches, and the latest iTunes.  I also noticed the strange use in 'Other' after finally getting the upgrade to work.
    I haven't tried to factory reset and reinstall yet, since it took me about 4 hours to get the upgrade to complete last night.  I had about a dozen failures during the upgrade process, then 2-3 failures while it was trying to restore all the apps/music/etc.

  • Music App Stops Playing

    I'm having an issue with the music app on my Iphone 5 (version 7.0.4) and my brand new Ipad mini (not sure what version). It plays the first few songs fine and then randomly stops, the play button is still an arrow (it's not paused, my head phones haven't come unplugged). The progress bar (thing that shows how much time is left on a song) stops moving as well. I can skip to the next song but it won't start playing either. Even when the music does play, sometimes my Ipad states that its playing the song I've selected but it is actually playing another song... If I restart either device, the app will work for a few minutes and start doing the same thing again. The first time my phone did this, I looked at all the obvious fixes (such as headphones, pausing, low battery, etc.) and couldn't come up with a solution so I unplugged my headphones and went to bed and about 10 minutes later was woken up by my music playing right where it left off. I have no idea why this is happening as I've had my phone for almost two years now, I haven't done any updates for 6 months or so and my Ipad is brand new, I literally bought it last week (really regretting now buying that store warranty). Anyone have any suggestions?

    It's back!!!!!! The problem went away for a few days now same issue. It only happens when I am listening to sound files on the headphones - sudden pause then restart in the middle of playing the sound file, this happens with different music/podcase apps. No issue with bluetooth streaming or speaker phone. So it appears there is a software bug with Lollipop update - never had this problem with KitKat. Factory reset does not fix it. I wish there was a way to revert the phone back to KitKat. Hoping the new Lollipop update would fix this.
