IPhone cannot record and open videos?

It happens today, the iPhone 4 cannot record and open videos. When I try to record, there is flashlight on and off on the top. I dont know why, I know it will show up when I take a photo, but it show up in video taking and it didn't show the time that I record. I look at my Photos, but it show the word "mov" and I click on it it said can't open. PLEASE HELP!!!

I have very similar problems on an iphone 4s, you think it takes video, when on ios 5.1.1 i pressed record button to end shooting video and picture would freeze! This would then freeze the whole camera app by showing the shutter screen and neither the camera or video camera would work. After about 4-5 minutes the phone would unfreeze itself and allow camera shots, but if you tried to take video footage again, exact same fault would arise! Ive tried reinstalling software and full on reset, deleted itunes and refreshed all that, no such luck! After the 4 or so minutes has passed the video would appear as a grey screen in the camera roll, and if i click it to view it, a quicktime Q appears in middle of screen with a black background, you hear the sound from the video but no motion picture!
Tried hard/soft resets, numerous backups with restores, tried using phone as s new iphone it still happens! Ive spoken to apple who say take it to apple store at bristol uk, and they'll swap it for a refurb, but i dont want a refurb I say, as ive had the phone 2 months and paid £250 upfront for the 64gb version, why should I want a swap when components inside phone could possibly be older than the new phone I have?
Just downloaded ios 6, the symptoms are the same, but now the picture doesn't freeze, but after pressing record button to stop recording the timer keeps counting up and red light still flashes! I give up honestly!
I swear its a software fault, as the camera focuses fine and takes a nice photo, even if it is a bit grainy if zoomed in? Is that normal, as its always been like that, but normal non zoomed are brilliant!
Can anyone help me and this guy who asked the same question back in april!
Please help, apple dont know what it is I dont think, which is annoying, they told me ios 6 might fix the issue!
Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers
Dean

Paragraphs help the reader, just saying.
What are you actually trying to do? Why do you need "DVD size" folders if you're creatng an Archive on an external hard drive?
Also, I understand burning folders instead of individual photos or albums gives you more space on a DVD.
It makes no difference at all.
How can I keep the captions on my photos (not events) when I print or transfer to a new folder?
You can export while writing the metadata to the file in most cases.
Tne only way I know is to copy photos from the Windows to folders on my HD, then copy and paste photos or albums or events to HD, then create a new folder and fill it to the appropriate DVD size.
HD? Another HD? You use HD there in a way that makes no sense. What's the point of 'DVD size'?
I also thought I should download future photos to my Canon programming that comes with EOS cameras and edit and then decide which photos to save to iPhoto library and which to save only to my archival HD?
Does this have any relation to the previous questions? You know you can delete from iPhoto, right?
You're somewhat confused and you need to
1. Decide what exactly you want to do
2. Then go about it.
If I understand you correctly - and there's no guarantee that I do - the easiest thing is to bring all your Photos into iPhoto and do everything from there.
You can have an archive on an external disk, you can sort and select and edit with or via iPhoto

No clue what you are trying to communicate or what this has to do with using an iPhone in a Enterprise (Corporate) environment.

Hi. Downloaded iphone 6.0 and my video playlists in "Music" are now gone, but their names are still there. The videos are still in "Videos" and play from there 1 at a time manually.

Hi. Downloaded iphone 6.0 and my video playlists in "Music" are now gone, but their names are still there. The videos are still in "Videos" and play from there 1 at a time manually. It gets weirder:
When looking at the empty screen with the name of my former playlist on top, if I tap the edit button on the phone, tap the + button to add a 'song' to the playlist, and then tap 'Done' without adding anything, I can see all my videos in the playlist with the red minus symbol next to each of them. But as soon as I tap 'Done' again they all disappear!
I saw on another forum that someone has had the same problem but fixed it by, and I quote
"If you go to Get Info and change the Media Kind from Movie to Music Video under the Options tab, they all now appear in the playlists!"
I'm happy this worked for him, but when I tap "File" in itunes, the "Get info" field is greyed out, so I can't test the solution proposed.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Same problem on my ipad 2...but it works well on my iphone 4s.

I have downloaded MF as a secondary browser as advised to open some video files however when i try and open videos it defaults to Explorer. How can I direct it to MF?

I have purchased DVD and using this link D:\powerseller_challenge.html to open video tutorials however Explorer couldnt open so was advised to download MF. However I still dont know if tutorial videos work because when I try to open them the browser defaults to Explorer. I dont really want to make Firefox my default browser in case I have problems. Am not particularly confident with ICT.

Thanks very much. Advice from my brother was just to copy and paste the link from Explorer to Firefox. It worked but needed to download a plug-in. Did this but message was 'no suitable plug-ins found' and had to search manually. Managed to find one manually but there was warning attached that it was executable file (http://aihdownload.adobe.com/bin/install_flashplayer10_chrd_aih.exe) and could contain viruses. Didnt think it could be so hard to open a video!!!

Emails account iPhone & iPad - Order and opening of Mail

Dear all,
Quick question for you experts.
- i would like to know if it is possible to change the way "Mail" is opening. In fact, when you fist open the application, it is coming directly on the inbox from the main email account. i would prefer the first get the view with all the inbox and accounts.
- i would like to know how it is possible to modify the order of email accounts, in order to put the one i want in first line, and then the other in my personalized way.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Regards
Cyril

Philly_Phan is correct. There IS no way to do it. If it were identical to the iPhone set up then there'd be no problem. I don't recall whether my mail settings ported over from the iPhone 3G to the iPhone 4 last summer when I upgraded but whenever I did set up the Speakeasy account on the phone I am certain it either asked me whether the account was POP or IMAP and I may have manually entered the settings. I wish I could do that now. I have also just noticed that there is no Push available for either my Speakeasy or Gmail accounts despite the fact that push is globally selected. The best that I can do is set it to fetch the mail every 15 minutes. It isn't a big deal in and of itself but it is simply another indication that the settings available are NOT identical on the iPad 2 and the iPhone 4, despite the fact that they sync to the same iTunes account on the same MBP and presumably are running the saome iOS version.

HT1459 cannot download itunes to my computer have received error message that cannot download and open itunes because the support piece did not download....please help

Question: I cannot successfully download itunes to my computer I have tried several times and every time after the download it says that I was unable to get the support piece and therefore cannot open itunes......please help.

With the Error 2, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
Does it install properly for you?
If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

I cannot log and transfer videos larger than 4 gb

I have final cut express 4.0.1, Macbook pro intel core duo 2 ghz, 2 gb ram, Canon HF100.
I saved my raw video onto a external drive, which is also my scratch disk. I have been able to log and transfer short videos fine. When I try to do this for longer videos, I get an exclamation point on my long and transfer window and my clip transfer is in idle.
I have noticed that when the long videos (over 5 min) are transferring, their sizes get bigger but then max out at 4 GB.
My audio is set to plain and I have the latest OS. I also changed my recording settings to match my playback settings = RT safe, video quality dynamic, frame rate dynamic.
Please help.

How is the external formatted?
It should be Mac OS Extended.
Most drives are pre-formatted to suit Windows FAT32, file sizes are restricted if so.

Record and playback video in slow motion

Hi
I am COMPLETELY new to labview and am having some trouble.
I would like to record a video using a USB camera and be able to play it back on multiple occasions at different speeds.
The file attached is what I have so far. The signal generated at the top is controlling the equipment I am recording. Currently, I am saving the video to the hard drive in AVI format and retreiving it to watch again. However I would like to be able to play this at different speeds and be able to pause/rewind. Is this possible? I would also prefer not to have to save and retreive the file and much prefer it to stay within the system memory.
Thanks in Advance
Alex

Hi!
In your program you set the "frames per second" input on the "Init AVI" Vi to 50. If your camera is set up to acquire 50 frames/sec this is ok. But your "playback" loop will (as it is) run at much higher rate, since it is not limited in speed. You need to control the playback rate with a delay function (maybe the Wait (ms)-vi). If the acq-rate is 50Hz, you need to limit the playback loop to 50 iterations per sec -> 20ms delay.
Set the delay to a lower value for a faster playback, or higher value for slow motion playback.
If you decide to use the AVI-vi:s you need to associate the video with a file. You can however keep the frames in memory by simply create an array of images and write to them instead of to the AVI-file. Modify your code like this:
1) Create an array of IMAQ-images, Note that you need diffrent images on each index in the array.
2) In your acqure-loop. Instead of writing to the AVI-file, write to the array at index "i". Note that you must modify this image, so retreive the image-ref at array index "i", then modify it by writing to it, the put the image-ref back in the array.
3) In your playback loop.Read image-ref to display from the array by index "i".
Done
Best regards

I cannot download and convert videos from Youtube using Firefox v31 and Downloadhelper v4.9.22

This has been a problem for at least 18 months. I receive updates to Firefox and Downloadhelper as they become available and am registered so that I can use the conversion process.
I've looked through the support pages but they don't help me to fix the problem. If a fix exists I would prefer it to be a "Click this button" rather than lines and lines of revised code.
Please help, soonest would be nice.

I can confirm that as of this morning I have v4.9.23 of Downloadhelper. I have manually updated SilverLight, to 5.1.30514.0, and the red warning on the Plugins page has now gone away, I now get an Up to Date message.
I still have the Youtube problem. I have closed and restarted Firefox but have not yet done a cold boot of my computer.
I do have 5 unknown plugins that Firefox says I need to research, these are for
Microsoft® DRM
Windows Presentation Foundation
NPCIG.dll (this relates to a Canon image gateway)
Windows Live® Photo Gallery
Google Update
The .dll will have come along with software with my camera but I have not idea about the rest.
Now whether the DRM is causing the problem I don't know but I am running Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 and Windows Media Player 11. For info my PC is running a legitimate copy of Windows XP SP3.
Thanks for the continuing help.
Nigel
