If you're not very technical, the easiest way would be to wipe out everything on the iPod, and then reload everything back on.

IPod Videos stopped playing

Hi all,
I've done a search on this and have come up with not very useful information. I have a 30 Gig iPod Video running the latest version of iTunes on a Windows XP platform. I've encoded my own videos (mp4 format, all the specifications in place, created with Quicktime Pro)and have uploaded them to my iPod via iTunes. Before the recent firmware upgrade (1.2.1), my iPod used to play the videos perfectly even if I chose them from the music playlist. Since I've upgraded, it's been giving me the "Now Playing" with the first frame snapshot album art and the timeline on the bottom and only playing the audio. I re-imported my videos via iTunes again (for some strange reason, some of them had to be converted because iTunes claimed they were not in the correct format), but everything was fine after that. Music is in the music directory, videos are in the videos... Until I plugged in my iPod at work with iTunes 4 running on my system. Now both music and video lists have all of my content listed on them, and when I try to play the videos, only the audio comes out. I've tried the "TV Out" fix, and set it to off, on and ask, but it won't do a thing. I don't want to have to reload all my songs and vids onto my iPod every time I plug it in at work. It's the only way I can charge my battery if it dies on me during the day. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Be sure to look at the Settings for Videos, on iPod. From the main iPod screen, select Videos. At the bottom of the Videos screen, select Settings. Make sure there is nothing unusual there, particularly in TV Out.

Why do some YouTube videos stop playing after a short time?

Since sometime in October, 2013, I have noticed that more and more YouTube videos stop playing within a minute of starting. Most that stop do so in 15 or 16 seconds. The playing stops because the download stops. I watch this on a network activity monitor I always have running. Not all videos do this, but the problem is becoming more and more frequent. Some videos which played correctly for me in the recent past are now exhibiting this problem.
Other than installing the latest Firefox updates I have NOT changed the software on my machine. I run Linux by the way. I do not think this is a Linux problem because (1) it was all working before and (2) my son who runs both Mac OS X *and* Windows is also seeing the same problem. We both use Firefox as our browser on all our platforms.
I should also note that I am NOT seeing this problem with any of the other video websites I use, only when I go to YouTube. That leads me to believe that the problem is not in Firefox; if it were it should affect videos from all websites.
Additionally the problem occurs whether or not I log into YouTube.
I have not run Firefox in safe mode because all the extensions I use did not affect the download of Videos before, so I don't expect unchanged extensions to suddenly start causing problems.
So, anyone else see this problem? (There was another note which talked about the same problem but it was disabled.)
Also -- pardon my paranoia, but -- I need to ask: Since YouTube is owned by Google and Google has its own browser it wants you to use, Chrome, is it possible that Google is intentionally causing some YouTube videos to fail if it sees that they are being sent to Firefox?
(That is not so outlandish I think. Microsoft WAS at one point caught mangling web pages going to certain web browsers other than IE. And these days Google wants to dominate the Internet just as badly as Microsoft does, so why not pull dirty tricks too?)
If this keeps happening I am going to have to try Google's Chrome to see if it somehow manages to play YouTube videos correctly while Firefox does not. But I really do NOT want to install Chrome because I trust Google about as much as I trust Microsoft, which is to say Not At All.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
There have been some issues with Flash 11 in the recent past. This could be a manifestation of that issue. Kindly check this response below to see if this helps you in viewing Flash videos.
Also, if you want to check if this is a flash problem and specifically on youtube, you can try the HTML5 version of Youtube. In this, there are no plugins involved, and the browser natively renders the videos. You can signup for the HTML5 trial by visiting http://youtube.com/html5. Please try that and check if the issue goes away.
Also, in this case, Google might not be doing anything sinister - they generally try to be standards compliant too. You can definitely try installing Google Chrome and test this issue, but we definitely would want you to continue to be a Firefox user :)

Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.

Also, try this one too
Recent crashes of certain multimedia contents (this includes Youtube videos, certain flash games and other applications) in conjunction with Firefox are most probably caused by a recent Flash update and/or a malfunctioning browser plugin such as Real Player.
In order to remedy the problem, please perform the steps mentioned in these Knowledge Base articles:
* [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems]]
* [[Flash 11.3 crashes]]
* [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]]

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try resetting the iPod...

If that doesn't work, make sure everything is up to date...
iTunes
iPod Updater
Updating iPod's Software
If the problem persists, see if a restore helps...

Also, is this with all videos or purchased ones? Do purchased songs work fine?
Finally, see if this sample video works (the one for the iPod)...

Why does my ipod touch stop playing songs when i click to play, it plays for a few seconds sometimes longer and then goes onto the next song. Help!

Please help,my ipod touch stops playing songs sometimes a few seconds in and then other times halfway. It cant be the song because different songs do it each time. Ive tried to restore it and it makes no difference :(
Please help as this problem gets very annoying. Thanks!

Did you restore to factory defaults/new iPod and sync stuff to your iPod? If you restore from backup there may be some corruption that is now in the backup.

Youtube video stops playing after 11 seconds

Mac Pro / Mountain Lion 10.8.2 / Flash 11.4 - YouTube videos stop playing after 11 secs. Only just started happening last week - around time when I installed latest Lion upgrade but this may be a red herring. Tried uninstalling Flash and reinstalling with no change. Checked/emptied cache.

There are several topics with similar symptoms, but I don't think anybody has found an answer yet, as it only occurs on some few systems.
What I would try if I encountered the same problem:
try disable Hardware Acceleration (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891337)
try update the graphics drivers (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765)

Videos stop playing

I bought a new MacBook just a week ago. I noticed that some videos stop playing after a few seconds when I try to watch them while surfing the internet! For example: I wanted to watch some of the one to one tutorials but I couldn't because ALL the videos stop playing after a very short time as the download stops. I noticed that the same thing appens with lots of the videos from the Apple website. However it's not a problem of Internet connection as when I try to watch the same videos with my iPhone connected to the modem via WiFi (the same type of connection I use for my MacBook) everything goes well.
On the other hand, I have no problems watching YouTube videos.
Thanks in advance for helping me.

Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:

If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

Youtube videos stop playing-appears not to be a browser problem

Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting here, I've always managed to find a solution to my previous mac problems with a little bit of googling around, but not this time so I really hope someone can help me out here.
It's been going on for about 2 months now, certain videos stop playing about halfway, even if the loadbar was way ahead- it just jumps back on 0:00 along with the time counter, the gray spinning circle appears in the middle of the screen and basically you can't do anything other than refreshing the page. Sometimes, after repeating this for 3-4 times, it plays the whole thing, but the time counter will still frozen on 0:00.In the beginning it was only a few videos, now it's pretty much 7 out of 10 and it really is becoming frustrating. I tried resetting Safari, emptying caches and all that jazz, then I installed google chrome hoping it was just a browser thing, but the problem didn't go away. I tried playing the same videos on the family computer and they worked just fine....
Has anyone had the same problem/any idea what's going on?
Thanks in advance for any replies

Thank you so much! It does fix the problem (which is even more confusing, cause as far as I know it's usually the other way round- people have trouble loading hd videos) at this point I'll just take what I can get : D I'm just really curious why is this all happening....
Thanks again!

TS3700 why does my ipod suddenly stop playing

Why does my ipod suddenly stop playing?

is your battery charged? How many songs do you have on the playlist (if you are playing a playlist when it stops)? I know that when the earbud wires are accidentally disconnected from the ipod body, the music stops automatically.

YouTube videos stopped playing on V 37.0

Running 37.0 Firefox on Windows 7 - 64 bit. All updates updated. Flash is 17,0,0,134 and checks out at Adobe site.
This afternoon YouTube videos stopped playing. In the center of the frame are circling dots. The video appears to have loaded, as I can move the time slider and see frames at the various times, I just does not play, just gives the circling "loading" dots. YouTube runs fine in IE. In Foxfire, if I go to other sites, like news and videos/ads play just fine.
I disabled all add-ons, set Shockwave & Flash to "always activate" and still the YouTube videos will not play. Seem to download, just not play.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Please also consider an add on for a work around to change HTML5 to the default, however this should have been fixed in version 37.0.1 are you still seeing this issue?

Why is my ipad2 not buffering videos streaming from web as quickly as it can play them and keep making my videos stop playing?

When I try watching videos streaming from itunes or u tube or any streaming source the ipad2 does not buffer the videos as fast as they are being played. This makes the videos stop playing within a few seconds after they start and I have to continuously hit the play button to watch videos in bits and pieces. This makes the streaming of videos on this device virtually impossible.

You may be having some problem in your local network or your internet connection is not fast enough to properly stream the videos.
What type of internet connection are you using (cable, DSL, etc?)
What sort of local network do you have? router make/model, etc.
What other traffic is on your network?

TS1717 my music videos stop playing after 3 minutes

my music videos stop playing after 3 mins it happens to them all they worked fine before I upgraded to the new software

No there is no particular limit, especially one as short as 4 minutes in the Flash player or a Web page in general.
The video file may have been corrupted before or during upload to server.
Test the original video file on your local machine, does it play the entire length? is so, notice the file size.
Compare that size to the file size of the video on the server... if they are the same, you might want to re-upload anyway.
Your video file will also have a web address that specifies exactly where it is located on your server. Do a direct download and test the file to see if it is courrupt.
It will have an address something like this:
http://www.cidigitalmedia.com/chris_test/tombstone/video1.flv
So download your file directly from the server and play on your local machine to see if it's longer than 4 min.
Could it be that your Web host only allows certain size files (no videos over 4 min for example)?
Best wishes,

My Apple iPod Nano stops playing shortly after plugging in the correct headset, but works on docking station. I've tried enabling and disabling crossfade in settings. Any suggestions?

My apple ipod Nano stops playing shortly after plugging in the correct headset. I've tried enabling and disabling crossfade in settings. Any suggestions?

Make sure your headphones are plugged ALL the way in, meaning the white part of the headphones is flush with the Nano and you cannot see any silver from the plug still showing.

Videos stopped playing on iweb

I built my website for my video production business using iweb - hosted by mobile me. Videos played fine until recently all videos stopped playing when you load the website. All videos show a QT logo with a "?" over it. Any idea how to fix this??

They are all working for me with Safari 5. Try claring your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and relaod the page.
P.S. Ran the Dipsea back in 1987 just before my 50th birthday. Got my medal but at the price of a ruptured disk. Those were the days.
