IPad2 Netflix not playing movies

Recently my iPad2 Netflix app hasn't been playing movies.  The app loads, I can press play on a movie, it buffs but it never plays the video or sound.  I can fast forward and see the small preview of the fast forward but when I stop it still doesn't play. Netflix works fine on my MacBook Pro, PC desktop, and iPhone5 all on the same wifi at home but not My iPad2. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it and still the same problem.

Nice job "Hacked Spam" I read your response and BAAAM, it worked!!!
I was getting the same message as "tfer75" and "JavaJ" and I thought your idea was a good one to try. I just unplugged my Apple TV and waited about 15 seconds. I plugged it back in and the ATV unit started its thing (updating the time and things). I then selected a movie and waited for it to play and it played wonderfully! Thanks for the feedback

    My ipad2 will not play my itunes videos that i just purchased; I've deleted and reloaded them twice, but still won't play; plays music only, any suggestions?

    You are playing them in the Videos app correct? Music Videos will play the video in the videos app, not in the Music app.

  • Latest version of itunes does not support Quicktime can not play movie from library

    Latest version of Itunes does not support Quicktime.  I can not play movies out of my itunes.  Please fix

    I don't usually download video from the iTunes store. I had a couple of long plane rides coming up and thought I might have time to watch the Stanford IOS7 programming class. On the plane I discovered this issue which has gone unaddressed since 2011 and has been worsened in Mavericks. in 2011 the advice was to open iTunes' get info pane and click run in 32 bit. That worked at least for some people. In Mavericks, iTunes will not launch in 32 bit.
    For the files you can locate in the finder ( mine are at
    /Users/raine001/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Media/iTunes\ U/Developing\ iOS\ 7\ Apps\ for\ iPhone\ and\ iPad/1.\ Class\ Logistics\,\ Overview\ of\ iOS\,\ MVC\,\ Objective-C.mp4
    ) you can click on the file in the finder and it will launch in QuickTime. For some reason on the plane I could see the first lecture in the iTunes view but, although I could see all the other lectures in the finder, I could not see the first one.
    Ah well, maybe some other year I'll think about getting up to speed on ios7. Heck, maybe by then they will design a decent user experience.

  • Quicktime 7.6 NOT playing movie trailers from Apple site???

    I have all the latest software OSX 10.56 running on a 3.06GHz Intel Duo but Quicktime 7.6 will not play movie trailers when on the Apple site. When I try, the site advises I need the latest Quicktime which I have already downloaded and installed fresh. It just doesn't seem to recognize it no matter which movies I try and view.
    Please help if you can?
    Thanks

    It's a piece of component software that's used by QuickTime to allow it to decode or encode different types of video/audio formats. The issue for me was that I had an old codec still in my system that should have been deleted/replaced during the last update, but was not. So when QT tried to access what it thought was an appropriate up-to-date decoder, it couldn't process the video with it and gave me a blank screen. Something similar could be happening to you as well.
    Try deleting all of the QuickTime components and folders in your system. Because you're using Leopard, I'm not sure all the files will be where they are for me. Do a thorough search of your system and clean out any QuickTime files you find, they'll be in HDD/Library, HDD/System/Library, and HDD/Users/"yourusername"/Library. Then reinstall QuickTime using the installer from Apple's downloads page(or Software update will probably work as well). You'll have to restart afterwards and make sure to repair permissions after you've rebooted(use Disk Utility). Then test out the trailers again and see if that solves it.

  • HT3775 Hi...I have the OS X v10.6.8 but my QuickTime is not playing .mov files. How can I fix this?

    Hi...I have the OS X v10.6.8 but my QuickTime is not playing .mov files. How can I fix this?

    Hi...I have the OS X v10.6.8 but my QuickTime is not playing .mov files. How can I fix this?
    Depends of the specific kind of file you are trying to play. MOV refers to the file container. Any data compatible with the system used to create the file can be placed in an MOV file. If you don't have the same codecs available on your computer to play back the file or if your version of the QT player does not expect expect the encoded data to be in an MOV file container, then it cannot/will not play the file. Use the Finder Info window, media player Inspector/Information window, or a dedicated utility to determine what compression formats were used to create the MOV file and then install the required codec(s) if available.

  • 10.8.5 ITUNES WILL NOT PLAY MOVIES DOWNLOADED FROM ITUNES

    Downloaded the new iTunes last night and it seems to work well with music but it will not play movies I've downloaded from the iTunes store. The sore works, Radio works, I can buy from the store but movies I have from iTunes (Star Trek, The Incredibles, ST: Into Darkeness among others) strat then crash. I get a message about an error with a plug in (FX I think) that has failed or is not found.
    Anybody else seeing this? Any solutions?
    Thanks in advance.

    Okay, I think I found my problem. I have SRS iWOw installed and the FX plugin is part of that. If I disable iWow all movies play as they are supposed to.
    Looks like I need to contact SRS for an update/upgrade or dump it and find another sound enhancer app.
    Thanks fo looking.

  • Quicktime not playing .mov videos captured with my iPad2

    I moved some videos that I took with my iPad to my macbook pro, but quicktime will not play them (.mov files). What's the deal?

    On the camera and after the transfer from camera to computer the files ended in .tod, as they always have. I had originally exported them into H.264, but the video quality was fairly shotty compared to what I typically get when exporting to .mov, and I really need the better quality. My biggest question is really why QuickTime will not play the converted .mov files now when it used to. What's the deal with it?
    You say you are exporting to MOV. However, as QTKirk previously pointed out, MOV is a file format and not a compression format. So we still have no idea what video format you are converting to when you select the "Export to QuickTime" option. If you are using the default MPEG Streamclip video compression format for this export option, then you are converting the TOD file video to the Motion JPEG A compression format. Although I do not have a problem using it, according to the Apple Web Site, Motion JPEG is supported by Snow Leopard but no longer natively supported by Lion.

  • PS3 (blu-ray player) will not play movie after menu selection on this particular project?

    When trying to play my finished Blu-ray disc on PS3 the menus display and work good. However, when I choose a selection to play the movie it returns back to the main menu. It doesn't matter if I choose the main play button or one of the chapters on the scene selection menu, it does not play the movie but rather returns to the main menu. Menus appear to be working fine!
    I've used Encore for years and I'm pretty familiar with the ins and outs of creating DVD's. I'm a little new at creating Blu-rays but have found the process very similar to creating DVDs with the addition of being able to add Popup menus. I pretty much followed the same process as a Blu-ray I created a couple months ago which worked fine. So I'm pretty much at a lose how to trouble shoot this issue. The only thing that has changed is that I've upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite but I really don't know if that is a factor or not. Encore did not run into any issues while working on the project.
    Everything works when previewing my project in Encore. All the menus and buttons work and the movie plays fine. Also, no errors are reported after running the Check Project process on the Build tab.
    I usually create an ISO file to burn from later. Encore created the ISO file and reported success.
    I'm running Adobe CS6 on a Mac with Yosemite. FCPX was used to output the AC3 audio file and 264 video file. Menu transitions are ProRes422.
    So far while trouble shooting I've made 3 coasters.
    1st disc was created using Yosemite Disk Utility to burn the ISO file created by Encore (my usual way).
    2nd, and 3rd disc I let Encore burn directly from the project.
    3rd disk I removed the PopUp menu as I've only done one in the past and figured I would try that as a trouble shooting step.
    So, since everything appears fine Encore I'm really not sure how to trouble shoot this. I wish Apple would support Blu-ray better so I could just open the ISO file in DVD Player like I do when I create DVD ISOs. So much easier than having to trouble shoot by creating coasters.
    If anyone has come across this issue before and has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. I'd like to complete this project and move on.
    Thanks in advance!

    Well, at this point I'm thinking maybe something is wrong with the movie files output from FCPX even though they play fine in Encore. I noticed that there is a one frame difference between the video and audio file. The video file is 00:38:45:01 and the audio file is 00:38:45:02. I already output the file using Compressor. However, I'm still seeing the exact same time difference between the video and audio file when imported back into Encore. I'm going to rebuild the Encore project from scratch using the movie files output from Compressor and try again. If that doesn't work I'll use 7toX to convert FCPX XML and try importing the XML into Premier Pro and output the movie files that way for Encore. Or, output a master file from FCPX and let Encore do the transcoding.

  • Itunes 10.5 not playing movies on apple tv

    iTunes 10.5 has been nothing but trouble since I first tried to install it.  First there were registry issues preventing me from installing.  Fixed those.  Then it wouldn't connect to Home Sharing.  That went away somehow.  Then it kept disappearing from my Apple TV, which I fixed by adding manual entries to my Windows Firewall.  Now I can't play movies from my iTunes on my Apple TV, which is bizarrely frustrating because I could two days ago.  I can play music and even music videos, but no movies.  The movies play fine on my PC.

    Hi Scott,
    i have very similar problem but even with older versions.
    all of my devices all use iOS 4.x, iTunes upgraded to 10.5 since a week now.
    here is my situation:
    - My itunes Windows 7 PC can ping all other devices.
    - AirportExpress Admin Tool cannot find any device.
    - iTunes does not find remote Speakers.
    but:
    - iPad1 & iPhone4 with iOS 4.x can play movies via AirTune EVERY time.
    - AppleTV2 with latest iOS update can play youtube videos and online streaming content EVERY time.
    - iTunes Windows PC has online Access every time.
    - iTunes has well working access to NAS Harddrive with music and photos.
    to me it seems like bonjour does not work quite well, but i have no idea how to double check connection. is there a way to do ping / traceroute / nslookup from ATV2 without jailbreaking?
    I would really like to have more technical information in iOS devices to do error determination and investigation.
    last weekend i completely reinstalled Windows 7 and iTunes from scratch, as my problem exists since a couple of iOS 4.x updates. i remember it worked quite well in the beginning of 2011 with iOS 3 everywhere.
    any ideas welcome !

  • Why my Ipad2 will not play rented video to a projector via vga adapter connection

    Hi, i want to know why my ipad will not play rented video to a projector using the apple vga adapter connector.  This is just basic mirroring and there should be no problem isn't it?  Please help.
    Thank you

    Technically, yes, it should be easy. However with rented videos you may be running into DRM (DIgital rights management) where you may not be allowed to play that video anywhere but on the iPad. The video could have a bit of programming in it that literally tells the HDMI or VGA output not to work.
    One way to test the connection, with your ipad's camera, shoot a short video and try to mirror that. If it mirrors and the movie doesn't then it's likely that you're simply not allowed to mirror it. If it doesn't play then there may be something wrong hardware or setting wise.

  • Itunes will not play movies... To play this movie install quick time

    I downloaded itunes on a new computer and it won't play movies.  It keeps giving me the error "This movie requires Quick Time which is not included in this version of itunes.  To play this movie install quick time."  I've installed Quick Time, uninstalled it, installed it again, tried a change and repair trick that I read about but nothing has worked...please anybody help.

    Okay ... that's left the field a bit open.
    Can you check something for me please? I'd like to try doing a "Run as administrator" on your iTunes.
    Quit iTunes first.
    In Computer, open Local Disk C: or whichever drive you have your program files installed on.
    Open the "Program files" folder.
    Open the "iTunes" folder.
    Right-click on the iTunes.exe file and select "run as administrator".
    Try playing the movie now. Does it play for you without the message?

  • Quicktime will not play .mov files since Lion installation

    When using Quicktime 10.6, I am receiving the error message "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." when attempting to open .mov files.  Prior to installing OS X Lion, there were no issues with playing .mov files.

    I'm having the same problem. Using a clean install of Mac OS X (10.7) Lion and QuickTime 10.1. 
    If I go to finder:
    I can click on Icon's Play arrow and the Movie will play in the icon.
    I can click on the file icon and press the spacebar and the file will play in QuickLook.
    If I doubleclick on the icon to open the file in QuickTime, I get the "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." message.
    If I right click on the icon and click open with... QuickTime, I get the "...file could not be opened. A required codec isn't available." message.
    MBP, Mac OS X (10.7)

  • IPhoto does not play movies from digital camera

    When transfering photos and movies to iPhoto, the movies are not playing in iPhoto.
    Error message:
    THE MOVIE CAN'T BE OPEN. YOU MAY NEED TO INSTALL ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE TO PLAY THIS KIND OF FILE
    I am using iPhoto '09 v8.1.2 and QuickTime Player 10.0 on Snow Leopard 10.6.3
    I deleted QuickTime 7 Pro after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
    My digital camera is a Pentax Optio S6 that creates movies in the MPEG-4 format. The ending of the movie file after transfer to the Mac is .avi
    What Codec do I need? Or should I reinstall QuickTime 7 Pro?

    Try install Perian

  • Safari does not play movie stream

    Does anyone have any idea why Safari does not play the movies on the web page
    http://www.3sat.de/delta/
    You can find them under "Web-TV" (you have to click a little bit until a small window opens which has a button called "video starten" at the bottom right).
    I believe the movies are reaplayer video streams.
    Needless to say that the movies work just fine in Firefox ...
    Any ideas, hints, pointers will be appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Gabriel.

    Hello Gabriel,
    The video does play for me in a popup window via realplayer.
    it also has the option to open in WMP.
    Web TV
    It will not play in realplayer itself, when i click for it to play in real Player this

    Safari is also picky about code, this one is not the poorest & it does work for me so it seems something is interfering in your user account or computer,.
    Have you tried the site in a test account if not that would be telling.
    Let us know if it works there.
