Iphone 4 wont play videos after upgrade ios 4.3.2

I wonder if anybody can poine me in the right direction.
I have an Iphone 4 running the latest iOS 4.3.2, the problem is that I can't play non-native videos on my iphone using Apps such as Azul Media Player or VLC. Both afore mentioned Apps are supposed to make viewing of non-native formats such as .mpeg. avi, etc possible, - indeed they DID prior to latest iOS upgrade.
Now it might be worth mentioning that Ive upgraded my iphone to latest iOS but Ive also installed a new Windows based PC at home. I'll tell you why ive mentioned this.
Originally video files where imported to my iPhone via Itunes which was running on an old X86 Windows Based PC - Windows XP Pro SP3
verything was fine, no problems importing using iTunes File Sharing and equally no problems viewing videos using Azul Media Player.
Yesterday seems to be where everything seemed to go heywire!
I took delivery of a new Acer AX3950 Computer running 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium.
I installed 64-bit Itunes then reinstalled a back-up of data from DVD which contained all Music Albums, Apps etc. I then connected my iPhone 4 to my new PC and sync'd - everyhting went smoothly just as anticipated, all data restored lost nothing.
Then, Im prompted to upgrade to latest iOS 4.3.2, which I did.
All files downloaded, unpacked and went thought the verification process with Apple Inc, iPhone was preparred to receive latest iOS then the installation began, - and subsequently failed before completion. I was then offered the choice of performing a recovery - losing all Music Albums, Apps restoring my Iphone to its native factory settings, - which was my only option at this stage. So, I opted to perform a recovery, - which failed also!
Now im left with an iPhone 4 in my hand which is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard. There was a picture on the screen which depicted a USB data cable with the words Recovery Mode above. Then, low and behold, I had a bright spark of an idea...
I went and fetched my old X86 based Windows XP Pro SP3 computer set it up and connected my iPhone to one of the USB ports.
Then I opened iTunes which detected the phone was in recovery mode and asked if I wanted to Recover my iPhone installing latest iOS and returning it to native factory settings, - again, I had no other option, so I went ahead.
Once again iOS 4.3.2 was downloaded from Apple, unpacked, verified, iPhone was prepared etc..
installation began and continued successfully including reboot, - Yippie! My iPhone 4 sprung into life!
I was then offered the choice of restoring all data from a recent back-up - which I did. After almost 2 hours (despite iTunes contdown timer continually saying 7 minutes remaining) I finally restored my iphone back to what I thought was it's fully working condition. Well almost, apart from the video rendering issue as mentioned.
Now, if you're still with me, - and God knows I hope you are..
This is what I'm wondering..
Why is it I can't play non-native video files on my iPhone 4 since upgrade to latest iOS 4.3.2?
Please help if you can it would be greatly appreiated. - my iPhone is bog-standard issue, all Apps have been purchased via App Store and the phone has not been tampered with - i.e. Jailbroken.
Yours with much respect.

  • My iPad2 will not play videos after I upgraded to IOS 5.1.1.  How can I fix it?at?, My iPad2 will not play videos afteri upgraded to IOS 5.1.1.  How cani ix that?

    I have an ipad2.  Ever since I upgraded to the IOS 5.5.1 I am having problems playing videos on Netflix or YouTube.  I do to have this problem on my laptop, so it isn't in my wireless router.  I have cleaned out the cache on the iPad and that didn't help. I've restarted it too. 
    I hope someone has an idea how to fix it.  I'm lost without it now.
    Thanks.

    Do the videos start to play and quit? Do they not start at all?
    Close all apps and restart the iPad and then try YouTube or Netflix again.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open 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 to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can also try resetting/rebooting the iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.
    Even if your the internet is OK with other applications doesn't mean that there isn't an issue with the way that the iPad is connecting to NetFlix and YouTube. You can always try rebooting your router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

  • QuickTime in Safari cannot play video after upgrading to iTunes 10.2

    After upgrading to iTunes 10.2 and QuickTime 10 on my MacBook Pro, the latest Quicktime version embedded in Safari is behaving strangely. When I want to play video on certain websites like " http://www.lynda.com/Aperture-3-tutorials/essential-training/59221-2.html ", the Quicktime logo on Safari browser appears and just sits there with sound only. I tried it on Firefox, the video can only be played on the lower part of my suddenly splitted screen, there is an "error" message on a Quicktime logo background.
    Could anybody help me solve the problem. By the way, all these videos can be played normally on my Windows 7 desktop using both Firefox and Safari for Windows.

    To make the matter more weird, the QuickTime plays normally on my Safari after I log out and switch to the administrator account of the MacBook Pro. When I change back to a normal account, the QuickTime error takes place again. It seems there must be something I configured wrongly.

  • Video iPod Stopped Playing Video After Upgrade to 1.2

    Hi everyone.
    I upgraded mine and my boss' 5th Generation iPods (both are 60 Gig) to version 1.2.
    Mine works fine, but he is getting on an airplane and his video stopped working after a few minutes of watching a movie.
    Aside from reloading the software (which isn't an option at this point as he is on the plane) does anyone have any suggestions?
    Has this happened to anyone else?
    I can tell him to reset it, but any other ideas??
    Thanks for your replies.

    I also just upgraded to ITunes V.7 and IPod Updater 1.2
    Now I can no longer view any of my videos (which I purchased online from Apple Music Store) on my iTunes...AND after upgrading to V1.2... now they won't download into any of my 3 iPods either!
    (error msg: Video X was not copied because the video format was not supported by your iPod)...these Apple-supplied Pixar videos are in MPEG4 (.m4V format)?

  • Ipad 2 won't play videos after upgrade to ios5

    Did the upgrade and I noticed no videos will play from my playlist.
    Video's work fine on iTunes and my iPhone, but for some reason my iPad will only play the audio with a picture where the video should be.
    Any one have a thought?
    Thanks,
    Boris

    The same happened to me except it plays some of my music but not all (maybe 1/2). On the songs that won't play, the album artwork comes up and the status bar that indicates elapsed time moves as if the song is playing, but I get no sound. Other songs work fine. Also, the songs that don't play are a mix between songs loaded from my CD collection and songs purchased on iTunes. PLEASE HELP!!

    Without more information, I have to say it sounds like the phone you have was not legitimately unlocked, but had been hacked. Updating iOS will re-lock it to the original carrier.
    ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
    Where did you get the phone?

  • My iPhone 4s keeps restrating after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2 and comes up with recovery mode.

    My iPhone 4s keeps restrating after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2. I tried to restore for few times using iTunes and installed only 8 apps freshly from iTunes apps store. After restating the phone goes to recover mode every time. Last time it came up with a diagnostic massage with a big apple logo saying..'we are hanging there'. I am really frustrated with Apple coz my last mobile 3GS's network circuit was so poor that I could not use that to make call. However can any one help me with my iPhone 4s problem? I've no warranty left that's why I think apple will not help me any ways.

    Try changing the channel on your router to manually select & use,the highest number channel available.  After I did that I no longer had the problem. 

  • Why missing personal hotspot  in my iphone 4s after upgrade ios 7 ?

    why missing personal hotspot  in my iphone 4s after upgrade ios 7 ?

    I'm having the same issue (iOS 7.0.3 on 5s).
    Had Sprint add Wi-Fi Hot Spot to my account today, went to set it up, and there's nothing in Settings for "Personal Hot Spot." Apparently it should appear underneath "Cellular" but it's just not there.
    Resetting network settings didn't help. And Sprint doesn't know why it's not there either.

  • After upgrading iOS 7 on my iPhone 5, the wifi is not working . It cannot detect any wifi nor am I able to enable wifi under settings. Is there a way for me to fix this?

    After upgrading iOS 7 on my iPhone 5, the wifi is not working . It cannot detect any wifi nor am I able to enable wifi under settings. Is there a way for me to fix this?

    Hi samer almasri,
    If you are having issues with enabling Wifi on your iPhone you may want to try a couple of things to troubleshoot. First of all I would quit all open applications on the phone and try again. See this previous thread for how -
    How do I close apps on my iPhone with iOS 7?
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5581063
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

    You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

  • After upgrading IOS 7.0.2, will my data an applications remain same in my iphone 4S?

    If all goes well, there should not be an issue.  However,
    you should always perform a backup before doing any
    update or upgrade as anything can happen.
    Perform both a backup via iTunes and via iCloud and perform
    a sync of all apps, music, photos, etc. with iTunes.

    I've had the same issue. I forgot how i resolved it but i think it has something to do with iCloud and sync in your contacts.

    Sounds like you have a battry issue but don't want to believe it.
    If a car was running fine on one tank of gas, then you filled it up with another tank of gas and it began to run funny, one might suspect that tank of gas. But let's just say coincidence blew a valve-- would you think the new tank of gas was the culprit?
    BUT WAIT!! It just might have been! The gas could have been of higher octane and put more more strain on the valves; you know, like going from 87 octane (OS6) to 93 octane (OS7) and showing you the engine was on the edge of compromise.
    Sometimes you have to go with common sense. If everything else is ruled out, it must be the battery. And if it runs fine one moment in OS6 but immediately ***** in OS7, I'd believe my battery was suspect-- though comfy-- in OS6 but the OS7 showed its true power.
    Moreover, if you had the answer-- or didn't want to believe someone's more competent advice-- why did you even call?  You've already shown that you don't know much when you asked if you could go backwards after setting up the new OS as a new phone.
    Additonally, if you're such the know-it-all, but yourself the $29 battery and put it in yourself. It's a piece of cake.
