IPad 2 full of video

In iTunes my iPad 2 shows it is almost completely full of video however, there are no movies, no tv shows, & no videos being stored on it.  I cant update my apps when the memory is full of video that I cant even find.  Any ideas how to fix this?  Thanks!

I had a similar situation some six monnths ago.  In my case, there was a fixed 6G of phantom videos.
First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or 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 (and it probably won't), try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  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."

  • IPad Full Screen Video Encode Settings

    This seems like such a basic question but I can't seem to find it.
    I want to transcode a video to play in 1024x768, which is the dimension of the iPad. However one of the presets in AME (CS6) for either Apple or iPad have this setting. What are people doing for full screen playback ?

    This preset exists in AME CC but not in AME CS6.  It's easy to create your own custom preset for this size however, just open one of the iPad presets set to 1280 x 720, change the frame size to 1024 x 768 and save a copy.

  • Ipad air unable to watch full HD videos

    When i try to open 1080p types videos  it direct to normal format like mp4..coudnt able to watch any Full HD videos,,,

    If you are referring to the Videos app and that it appears to be frozen, then try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option if the two above don't work is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Lenovo 3000 N200 0769 Vista 32bit video driver (NVidia) full screen video problem

    Hi, would appreciate an update from Lenovo about this.
    The NVidia VGA driver just displays a blank screen when playing video in full screen mode when hardware acceleration is turned on (the default setting). Obviously it's a pain to turn off the hardware acceleration just to get full screen video working.
    There is a generic version of the driver available from Nvidia but they advise not to use it as the oem versions are apparently modified for features like turning the screen off when the lid is closed. Maybe someone's tried the generic NVidia driver and can let me know if it's worth a go. Ideally it would be nice to hear if Lenovo are aware of the problem and are going to release an update.
    Thanks

  • Mini-DVI to DVI - 1920x1080 full-screen video

    Just bought a mini-DVI to DVI adapter to hook up my Mid-2006 MacBook to my Acer H223H 23" LCD screen. It works fabulously as expected, except when I try to watch full-screen video on the Acer LCD at 1920x1080. What's strange is that when I'm watching video in a window (using VLC), I can increase the size of the window until it almost takes up the whole screen, but then any further than that causes noticeable jerkiness (a lot of dropped frames) in the video playback. Any ideas what's going on here?
    I hope this is the right forum for this and thanks in advance for helping me out!

    Posted too soon before fully exploring the situation. A little more context: I'm running a fresh install of Snow Leopard.
    I used the mini-DVI to DVI adapter and my LCD to hook up my girlfriend's laptop (MacBook running Leopard). Full screen video in VLC plays no problem (even used the same file). Also, I tried playing a DVD on my MacBook and it ran flawlessly. Clearly the issue is VLC's compatibility with Snow Leopard.
    Thanks anyway - glad to know this community is here if I have any other issues.

  • Macbook pro redina display keeps on telling me that the hard drive is full from Videos, and yet their is no videos, what can i do?

    Macbook pro redina display keeps on telling me that the hard drive is full from Videos, and yet their is no videos, what can i do?

    If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
    Launch the built-in Terminal 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

    I took a video with my iphone5 and I don't see it on my iPad. Can videos go from one device to another with iCloud?

    No.  Photo stream only streams photos, not videos.  To transfer videos between your devices you can either import them to iTunes and sync them, or (more conveniently) use an app like PhotoSync or Bump.

  • Is it possible to transfer Full-HD videos (from a Full-HD camcorder) from iMovie 11 to compressor 4 and create there a AVCHD DVD which can be played in HD quality at a PS/3?

    Is it possible to transfer Full-HD videos (from a Full-HD camcorder) from iMovie 11 to compressor 4 and create there a AVCHD DVD which can be played in HD quality at a PS/3?

    Yes.
    In iMovie use SHARE/Export Movie.
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/#mov3a9e5615
    Choose 1920x1080 (or size of your choice.
    Give it a name and location.
    You can drag this file into Compressor.
    In Compressor, use "Create BluRay Disk"
    That should work fine.
    There is another alternative, where you could skip the DVD and Compressor.
    Just SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
    Choose Movie to MP4
    In Options, choose h.264 as the Codec.
    Choose a bit rate of 16000 or less.
    Create the movie.
    You can then put it on a USB thumb drive and play it on the PS3.

  • Video no longer works on iPad. My videos, you tube, Netflix, news casts, nothing works.

    Video no longer works on iPad. My videos, you tube, Netflix, news casts, nothing works.

    Try this and see if it fixes it for you. Close all apps in the recents tray and then reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of all of the app icons. Tap the home button.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • What is the best practice for full browser video to achieve the highest quality?

    I'd like to get your thoughts on the best way to deliver full-browser (scale to the size of the browser window) video. I'm skilled in the creation of the content but learning to make the most out of Flash CS5 and would love to hear what you would suggest.
    Most of the tutorials I can find on full browser/scalable video are for earlier versions of Flash; what is the best practice today? Best resolution/format for the video?
    If there is an Adobe guide to this I'm happy to eat humble pie if someone can redirect me to it; I'm using CS5 Production Premium.
    I like the full screen video effect they have on the "Sounds of pertussis" web-site; this is exactly what I'm trying to create but I'm not sure what is the best way to approach it - any hints/tips you can offer would be great?
    Thanks in advance!

    Use the little squares over your video to mask the quality. Sounds of Pertussis is not full screen video, but rather full stage. Which is easier to work with since all the controls and other assets stay on screen. You set up your html file to allow full screen. Then bring in your video (netstream or flvPlayback component) and scale that to the full size of your stage  (since in this case it's basically the background) . I made a quickie demo here. (The video is from a cheapo SD consumer camera, so pretty poor quality to start.)
    In AS3 is would look something like
    import flash.display.Loader;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    import flash.display.Bitmap;
    import flash.display.BitmapData;
    import flash.ui.Mouse;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
    stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    // determine current stage size
    var sw:int = int(stage.stageWidth);
    var sh:int = int(stage.stageHeight);
    // load video
    var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
    nc.connect(null);
    var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
    var vid:Video = new Video(656, 480); // size off video
    this.addChildAt(vid, 0);
    vid.attachNetStream(ns);
    //path to your video_file
    ns.play("content/GS.f4v"); 
    var netClient:Object = new Object();
    ns.client = netClient;
    // add listener for resizing of the stage so we can scale our assets
    stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);
    stage.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.RESIZE));
    function resizeHandler(e:Event = null):void
    // determine current stage size
        var sw:int = stage.stageWidth;
        var sh:int = stage.stageHeight;
    // scale video size depending on stage size
        vid.width = sw;
        vid.height = sh;
    // Don't scale video smaller than certain size
        if (vid.height < 480)
        vid.height = 480;
        if (vid.width < 656)
        vid.width = 656;
    // choose the smaller scale property (x or y) and match the other to it so the size is proportional;
        (vid.scaleX > vid.scaleY) ? vid.scaleY = vid.scaleX : vid.scaleX = vid.scaleY;
    // add event listener for full screen button
    fullScreenStage_mc.buttonMode = true;
    fullScreenStage_mc.mouseChildren = false;
    fullScreenStage_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFullStage, false, 0, true);
    function goFullStage(event:MouseEvent):void
        //vid.fullScreenTakeOver = false; // keeps flvPlayer component from becoming full screen if you use it instead  
        if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL)
            stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
        else
            stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL;

  • My MacBook is brand new, shy of a month and I don't understand why it was recently started to lag whilst watching full screen videos on youtube? Somebody help me please...

    Somebody help.. I don't get what's going on. This didn't happen in the beginning, it was completely fine with watching full screen videos, but now it seems to "glitch" now and then and appear slow and laggy. whattttt

    If the computer seems normal except for watching youtube the problem is probably between you and your ISP or between the ISP and youtube. If your computer seems slow no matter what you are doing try restarting your computer and see if that helps. (If so pay attention to your Page Outs in the Activity Monitor and also how much free space your hard drive has.)
