Issues regarding auto lock while watching a movie

I decided to watch some Netflix before I went to bed and I noticed that my screen would dim and then eventually lock the phone. This has never been an issue till tonight. I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem and what I can do to fix it. Thank you

Hey jberona,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone screen locks when using a 3rd party app. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
iPhone: About General Settings
Set the amount of time before iPhone locks
Choose General > Auto-Lock and choose a time.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
Mario

IMac 7,1 turning internal screen off while watching a movie via output (second display), possible?

iMac 7,1 turning internal screen off while watching a movie via output (second display), is it possible with Lion?

Actually, Plex does the best job by placing a black background to the internal iMac screen it's called Blanking.
However that does not turn off the backlit which is very bright on the iMac 24" also the internal screen will draw more power that way. As you probably know running bootcamp you can turn off the internal screen while watching a movie on the external. This isn't a hardware limitation, I hope Lion has this feature.

Try to reboot your computer. If that doesn't work, try deleting the movie and redownloading it (assuming no other AppleID is associated with your computer).
If neither of those work, try contacting the iTunes store.

Screensaver starts while while watching Quicktime Movies

We've got kind of aproblem with my friend's eMac 1.25:
The screensaver starts while while watching Quicktime movies.
Does anyone know why this happens (without putting the mouse in the "screensaver-corner"!)?

I didn't try it with iMovie, but this must be the same problem. And it is only a problem with the eMac, not with my iMac (G4 or G5 doesn't matter).
Changing the perfs for the screensaver to 2 hours or never isn't really the solution, because I'd like the screensaver to do his job, when the Mac is not in use (but don't like him when the Mac is in use)...

Display turns off while watching a movie!

why does the display on my X1 Carbon turn off while watching a film on battery? I have never had a laptop do that before. Surely when a movie is running it should no not to count the period of inactivity and trun of the display?!! This is meant to be a modern machine.

TS2934 locking up while watching the movie

when i'm watching any movies on Apple TV, the movie locks up every so often,sometimes for a few minutes @ a time

How fast is your Internet connection. According to Apple:
A sustained 8-Mbit/s or faster Internet connection is recommended for viewing 1080p high-definition movies and TV shows, 6-Mbit/s or faster for viewing 720p content, and 2.5-Mbit/s or faster for standard-definition content. Internet connection speeds may vary depending on your ISP and other factors.
By the way, I've found WIDE variations in the alleged data rate for my connection depending on which utility I use to measure the rate. One app reliably tells me 24Mbps while another reliably tells me 12Mbps and yet a third reliably states 8Mpbs. A fourth gives me readings all over the map!

Alert box while watching videos/movies, etc

This has been happening for a while and it doesn't cause any problems, but I'm concerned by the fact that I don't know what it says. When I'm watching videos or movies on my MacBook there's a message box that pops up and then goes away. It goes away so fast that I literally can't even make out one word that's in it. It doesn't matter how I'm watching the movies... Netflix, Hulu, playing a DVD, etc. Has anyone seen this before and know what it's saying?

I have no idea what is the small pop up window have alert for you and this goes quickly,why dont you prepare example use ur ipad video record it face to ur mac screen hope this shown on ur ipad,u needs timing to pick this up and u can read it,u pause the recording once u saw it on ur ipad...this is ur only chance to read it.

HT1657 Do you need internet while watching the movie?

Do you need internet while watching it after download?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
From my own personal experience, I have found that when I turn off the Wi-Fi on my Wi-Fi only iPad, I am still able to play rented movies on it. I have tried this perhaps four or five times and in each case, this has been the result. I have also noted that other users have had the same experience as I.
However saying that I have noted a small number of users that have stated they are unable to view rented movies without an Internet connection. This knowledge base article from Apple, also suggests that an Internet connection is required.

IPhone locking while watching YouTube

This only started happening with the update. I know it's not just me as my boyfriends does the same. You have to continue to click the screen when watching a video or it will dim and than lock!
Very frustrating when when you are trying to share a video with a group!
If anyone has this issue and fixed it please let me know! I have googled it and not found any resolutions.

Sorry I can not give an immediate solution.
There seem to have been a few problems with Flashplayer recently. The sound problem was thought to have been solved, but has been around for a while.
#Please state what version of FlashPlayer you are currently using.
# then update to the current version, and confirm what version that is
* note the Flash site will check this for you and provide any download you need<br/>with Flash enabled in Firefox navigate to<br/>http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
As you have Win7 may I ask you to try using Internet Explorer and say whether or not that also suffers this problem?
Please also confirm which version of Firefox you are using? <br/> (note a minor update could be released this week so are you on 13'''.0''' )
* To check the version navigate to ''about:support''<br/>Key in about support into the Firefox address bar

While watching rented movie it stops during playback, how do i fix it?

I rented a long movie and it continues to stop during playback, how do I fix that?

Hi dedesgirl,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there is an issue playing songs in iTunes. Does the playback issue only occur with specific tracks and were they purchased from the iTunes Store? Take a look at the article linked below and try the suggestions which will resolve most iTunes and QuickTime Player playback issues.
