IPhone 2G video out problems

Hi all,
Since updating to 2.1 (via Pwnage) I have been unable to get video out in my iPhone 2G.
I have Apple component AV cables which worked fine on 2.01 with both my TV and the projectors used at University (I use this in my lectures). Upgrading to 2.2 has not fixed the problem.
Annyhoo, once I plug them in I get the dreaded 'This device is not compatible etc...' message and all I get is audio. I have even had this warning when using the cable and the wall plug to recharge.
I have looked through MacTalk and Apple's Support site and several people have been having trouble with 3rd party cables but mine are Apple, came in the nice shiny (expensive) box 'n everything. Apple Support (US) definitely lists this cable as compatible with my iPhone.
Can anyone offer practical advice, or do I have to back to 2.01 to get this to work?

Restore your iPhone to the factory firmware, then try the Apple Component AV Cable. Else, seek elsewhere for assistance, as Apple Discussions is not the place to seek support for hacked/jailbroken iPhones.

The Video Out Problem...Fixed?

I know Wikipedia can be edited by virtually anyone with membership and an opinion, but I had to know.
It said that an itunes update 1.0.2 fixed the video out problem...does that mean that videos can now be connected to a TV and play on the TV? They fixed that?
I am still ever in the market for the nano, just waiting until the right ammount of money to purchase one. Thanks

I think it is currently working according to this knowledgebase article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300233
That is, for the new Nano, you can use the older iPod Universal Dock (ie the normal one that has been available for a couple of years) together with an iPod composite video cable or an SVideo cable (ie all currently-available stuff you may have already bought for a previous-series video iPod), OR you can use the brand new "Apple Universal Dock" with the brand new Apple Composite AV Cable or with the (new) Apple Component AV Cable, OR you can use one of those brand new Apple AV Cables directly with the Nano (without the new Apple Universal Dock).
What you cannot do is connect an old video cable or accessory, which was expecting to get composite video from the RCA/audio jack on the Nano, because it looks like (on the new Nano and the Classic) the audio out jack is now just for audio out and video is only available via the dock connector on the iPod.

Does iPhone do Video Out via video cables?

I can't find any reference to this in the iPhone user guide, so I'm guessing it can't, but I thought I'd ask here.
Can iPhone send video out to an external TV using the iPod Video Connection Cable?

This might help.

IPhone video out problem

I have a iPhone compatible composite video out cable. When I select a video to play, it plays (video/audio) on the TV for about 8 seconds then the video quits playing. The iPhone goes back to the video list screen. When I restart the video only audio plays back on the TV. The video plays on the iPhone screen. Anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have the Apple Composite AV Cable? Note that there's a decryption chip in the Apple cable that's required for functionality with the iPhone. 3rd party cables don't work (although they may claim to work, they don't).

Iphone 5 video playback problems over quicktime?

ive recently got a new laptop, pre windows 8, and downloaded quicktime pro in order to play my iphone videos right side up because windows media player will play them upside down alot of the time. something i immeadiately noticed was that all my videos from my iphone 5, when played back via quicktime, have a big judder/skip in them every 2 seconds whereis all my iphone 4 videos playback no problem. the few videos i have that are recorded right side up from my iphone 5, because of orientation of the phone during recording, play perfectly fine on windows media player so this this leads me to believe it is a quicktime issue. i have updated to the latest quicktime just a few days ago with hopes of it being corrected but no such luck. im curious if anyone else is having this same problem or knows a fix? also if anyone knows how to flip videos with quicktime so i can just watch them on windows media would be great also. i found a write up how to do it but everytime i try it, after i save it it just reverts back to its orgional orientation. thanks for any help, Jamie

Add me to the list of people having this problem.
I'm running Macbook on 10.5.8. Quicktime is 7.6.9, in case this has any bearing on things.
OK......I just searched a few places and came up with this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perian
It's called Perian, and it's one of a few different options you could use to solve this problem....I just installed it (free), and now the videos play without a hitch. It's a plug-in for Quicktime. There are others that can supposedly do the same thing--look around and give it a shot.
(Also, supposedly this Perian is no longer in open development, and may not work with the newest Quicktime update for the newest Macs, but, like I said, there are other options out there that may work for you instead.)
I have a feeling my problem may have been due to my particular Quicktime/Macbook setup being a bit outdated, but who knows?
Good luck!

IPad video out problem

Dear forum users,
I have an iPad with the latest iOS software update, and I am trying to link it with an ACER K11 pico projector (which they advertise to work with iPad).
I am using the Apple video out vga cable, as well as a compatible app like "keynote".
Unfortunately, all I get is a "no signal" message on the projector. The projector works well with other video sources.
I tried it with my iPhone 4 and got the same result.
Any idea what could be the problem?
Many thanks
Macphi

Just checking: Did you actually run a presentation? You won't get anything on an external display until you actually start a presentation. VGA out is limited to apps that explicitly support it and even then only in some situations (e.g. the Photos app will only display something once you start a slideshow).

IPod Touch 2nd Gen Video Out Problem with Apple Component Cable

I'm trying to get video out working with my iPod touch connected to my TV. Here's the information.
32 GB iPod Touch 2nd Gen
Apple Universal Dock (current version.)
Apple Component Out cable for iPod (current version that connects with a dock connector.
I've connected the component cables into the component video input on my TV. When I start playing any video (purchased off iTunes store in Standard Def,) I get a scrambled picture that appears to be the video, and no sound. I purchased the TV in South Korea and haven't gotten to test it yet on a TV back in the US. I have my video out settings with wide screen turned off and set to NTSC (South Korea uses NTSC.) I've also tried every setting combination, and switching the cable connections with the same or similar results. Sorry if a similar problem has been posted elsewhere, but after searching, I couldn't find any similar behavior. Any ideas on what might be the cause? I don't have any other component devices to check if the component on the TV is bad.

I've got that same problem: iPod Touch 2nd Gen, Apple Component Cables, and an HD TV.
The funny thing is, the cable works fine with an iPod Classic (160 GB) but not for the iPod Touch. Can anyone explain why that is?

IPhone and video out

I have tried to pass video from my iPhone as well as my touch to my TV through my receiver without any success. I know that on the regular iPod that you have to switch to video out, however, I cannot find this option on my iPhone. I am using the Apple accessories. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When did you get the cables for it. Not all older cables for TV out work for iPhone/iPod Touch. I bought set after getting iPhone and verified they said would work with iPhone. Works good for me.
Only settings are in Settings => iPod.
But default settings should be good.

G5 video out problem w/ 23" cinema display

Yesterday I moved my G5 and 23" display into another room in my house. When I plugged everything in and turned on the computer, the monitor was not responding. I plugged the 23" display into my powerbook G4 laptop, and it functioned properly as a second monitor. At this point, I ruled out the monitor as the issue.
With the monitor plugged back into the G5 tower again, I restarted the computer, and without seeing anything, I entered my username and password to login. I could tell that the computer was working, but the video out was not. I then used the keystroke to properly shut down the computer.
The next time I restarted it, the display came on, but after about 10 minutes, it froze. I suspect a problem with the video card.
Here's the big question though. I also noticed that the computer gave an error on one of the processors. It could be related, but it may be another issue. I've had the computer since July of 05. Is it too late to buy the apple care service to cover a video card and new processor (potentially), or am I in for a costly repair?

Since ou have moved the machine, as well as disconnected/reconnected the monitor, it is possible the video card has become (at least partially) unseated.
Verify the card is fully and properly seated in the slot, no pins are damaged/bent, that the cable is fully seated, and that the cable did not get pinched/damaged in the process of the move.
(Generally, if you wiggle/jiggle the cable around, and the monitor cuts in/out or changes colors, there could be a broken wire in the cable.)

MacBook Video Out problems.

Hey all.
Bit of an issue regarding my Macbook. It's a 2ghz Duo With ram upgraded to 4gb by myself. For some reason the video out on my Macbook has decided to stop working. Is it possible that it's hardware related? I have tried the following.
1: Bypassing my Onkyo TSR 609 amp straight to TV
2: Lowering resolutions (although 1080i and p was fine)
3: Bootcamping into windows to see if its an OSX issue. (my friends Samsung laptop works just fine through all the various combinations)
4: Punching it.
Im at a loss now, was working fine, got my new amp and was working fine through that for a week (havent changed any settings on it, and as I said same issues straight to TV which is a 42" Sharp XD1E) and the picture just comes out as multicoloured digital noise but you can just about make out whats on screen.Its a fairly weak connection on the MiniDVI port on laptop itself, It's connected via MiniDVI to DVI/HDMI dongle. I have also swapped out cables. It's not the amp as my PS3 blasts out 1080p with NO issues, please help!

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
~/Library/Input Methods/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

Iphone 6 video recording problem

I've had a 128gb Iphone 6 since release day, the slo-mo and video recording worked fine initially and then I noticed a problem.
if I try to record a video in normal or slo-mo mode it will start recording fine and then I can't end the video by pressing stop or either of the volume buttons.
The only way to get out of it ta to press the home button and then close the application, but the video will not be saved.
This just happened with snapchat also and I've had a replacement 6 from the Apple Store for this problem but it's happened again!
I tried a full restore through iTunes and still have the same problem.
Anyone found a solution to this?
Thanks

Raise to speak with Siti does just as provided - when you raise the iPhone up to or towards your face, Siri is activated.
When you turn off Raise to Speak, you must press the Home button to activate Siri.
Since you called Siri stupid, seems you are a prime candidate to turn Raise to Speak off. If not, stupid Siri will continue to ask you want you want to do when your iPhone is raised up to or towards your face.

HT1454 iPhone 4s video out not working with AV cable

I have an iPhone 4s with ios 6.0. I recently bought the apple composite AV cable from an apply store. Unfortunate when I connect it to my tv all I get is sound. I've search for tv out settings but I can't seem to find them. Any suggestions?

im running ios 6.1.3 but have been having this problem for a while at least 2 earlier versions.I have an iphone 4s as do 2 of my work colleagues one running on the same as me and the other slightly earlier but not sure. I have a docking device that has an av out and also an iphone adater to composite av.and also vuzix wrap that supports iphone My phone doesnt work with any and i can recall starting to have problems first with the docking device which became temperamental and then wouldnt work at all.both my mates phones work with it and the glasses.My kids ipad 2s work with the composite lead and the glasses- dont fit the dock obviously ,my iphone 3 runs on all.i can only think that at some point the internals of my iphone 4s may have become damaged hence the intermittant problems with the dock at first ,and maybe its the 30 pin plug could it be that whichever of the pins carry the av signal have become damaged in some way posible dampness ,but im going to have it changed as it seems like a likey possibility.I can say one thing it was nothing to do with the software version ,nor any other device or lead.Also what i thought might be the internal 30 pin plug is i dont get a message l anymore saying the "accessory is not compatible with this iphone"therefore i dont think the phone knows theres a plug in so for the av out pins anyway as it charges up fine

Help please! iphone 5 video recording problem

i have a 16gb iphone and only 3 apps downloaded (and still available space). only 7 photos and no videos on my camera roll. why are my vids not recording all of a sudden??? i've had this phone for 6 weeks and it's been great, now videos wont record at all. i have filmed vids for over 10 minutes (and of course deleted them off my camera roll after i was done filming). why is it not recording when there's still space on my phone?

The problem I found, on my iPhone back a film on it to protect against scratches. Then looked at an Apple TV and advertising because it has been shown that the back is a small addition to the Micro Camera :) and that was covered by the foil so foil away and everything works perfect.
Sorry for my bad English :(
Thanks

7.01 video out problem

I have upgraded to 7.01, and the setup I have used for looking at my video doesn't work anymore.
I use Easy Setup to firewire DV to a DSR-20, whose output is connected by an s-video cable to a Sony 13" Hi-Res monitor. I do get an output, but there is a black rectangle in the display, the same as if I where trying to play a write protected DVD on the Sony.
Is FCP sending out a write protect signal? If so, how can I disable it?

Just wanted to add that I'm having the same issue.
iMovie 7.0 worked fine (and yes, I like it fine -- I would only be upset if Apple had taken iMovie HD away, but of course they didn't so I don't see why the whiners are so ... well, whiny!).
Applied the 7.0.1 update and now iMovie will not launch. Activity Monitor shows that the program grabs and holds the entire second CPU on my C2D MacBook. I waited several minutes for it to work out whatever it was struggling with to no avail. A simple force quit from the dock immediately quit the program and brought the CPUs under control.
Naturally I tried re-applying the update (nothing changed), checking to see if the problem existed with a "fresh" admin account (it did), repairing permissions (nope), restarting (nada), running AppleJack (un-uh) and even applying the update as root (no good).
I'm out of ideas, and a little nervous because I'm teaching a class on this thing on Saturday and can't work with it in its present state. I'm confident Apple will notice the issue and re-issue the update in due course (as they usually do when an update has unintended side effects), but I hope they hurry!
