ITunes will not play my videos

I have upgraded to iTunes 11, tried all the Quicktime edits and still get crashes and problems playing any videos unless I am in safe mode.
I cannot see any installed plug ins in the folder so I am baffled and fed up. Anyone have any bright ideas on how to fix this?
Cheers

I have the same issue, however I end up having to go thru a CTL-Alt-DEL and end other programs as well. You would think apple would have figured this out by now. I have decided to not use them for movie purchases as all other movies that I add from my pc to itunes play only theirs do not

  • ITunes will not play downloaded videos

    The music videos I have downloaded from the iTunes store will not play anymore. What happens is, when I click on the fire to play or open up iTunes and try to play it iTunes just quits on me. The music i have downloaded from iTunes works it is just the videos. Even when I try to play them with Quicktime, this will also just quits on me too.
    Thanks for your time

    I just tried to preview a video in the iTunes music store and iTunes just quite on me. So all the videos I bought do not play in iTunes nor Quicktime. And I can not preview video on the store I do not know if this would help, but I have iTunes 6.0.3

  • ITunes will not play music videos through airplay

    This is a specific user account issue.  If I create a new account I do not have this issue.  That being said I really want to solve this for my existing user login.
    Music Videos (and tagged as such) play in iTunes fine. 
    If I select my AppleTV (which is listed as an airplay device).  It completely ignores the selection and continues to play on my Mac.  I am unable to play Music Videos over airplay.
    When playing music I am able to select any airplay device and it works fine.
    When playing movies I am able to select any airplay video device and it works fine.
    If I change the Music Video tag to Movies it plays fine
    If I change it to Home Videos it plays fine. 
    If I try to launch iTunes in safe mode it fails to play at all because of the lack of Quicktime support.
    Obviously it's something in my ~/Library that is messing it up somehow.  
    The only plugin I have is AudioScrobbler.bundle and removing launching iTunes does not solve it. 
    I've tried recreating all of my iTunes preference files and that doesn't solve the issue. 
    It's maddening! 
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Greg

    I have narrowed it down to the ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.iTunes.(incredibly long hash).
    Removing this file causes a new one to be regenerated and that solved nothing.
    Removing the ~/Library/iTunes directory and the ByHost preferences file and rebooting did work temporarily.
    There was only one plugin (AudioScrobbler.bundle) in the iTunes directory.
    I was able to play a music video and select the AppleTV and then broadcast to it.  This lasted last then a few hours and now it's back to the way it was before.  Select the AppleTV is silently ignored. 
    Highly frustrating.  I have a broke and fixed version of the com.apple.iTunes ByHOST preference file but doing a diff of the two is useless as most of the xml entries are long strings of hash values.  No human discernable difference between the working and not working files.  At this point I defintely want to file a bug report. 

  • After updating to windows 8.1 iTunes will not play video

    I recently updated to Windows 8.1 but since i have my iTunes will not play video i previously downloaded from the iTunes store. The video will play in QuickTime without issue though, please help

    sorry it's not my apple id. it's my icloud email/account. after i updated to ios 8.1.2 my icloud acct on my phone is wrong. it's using my old college email address instead of my current icloud account email. my old college email address *used* to be my apple id, but i changed my apple id to my gmail account a few months back. anyway i can't "sign out" or delete the icloud account bc it thinks my college email address is my icloud account and it  keeps asking for the password. so i'll type in the current password for my icloud account and it says it's wrong and i need to retry or change the password, which i've already done twice and nothing changes. probably bc its asking for the password associated with the college email address it thinks is my icloud acct.
    i can access icloud on my desktop without a problem...   make any sense?  do i have to restore my phone now or is there a solution?  i've wasted the last 2 days trying to figure this out. i can't send or receive emails on my iphone bc of this. which really ***** for work.

  • Purchased music videos from iTunes but it will not play, no video or sound

    Purchased music videos from iTunes but it will not play, no video or sound. There were several vidoes on the purchase I made and two of the videos will not play the video or sound. I've checked to see if they were waiting for download and nothing is there. Any suggestions.

  • Itunes will not play my music nor videos

    I recently updated to itunes about a week ago..and for some odd reason my itunes will not play any music that is located in the itunes music library.. I un-installed it, then re-installed it..and it still did not play the music.. I believe it has affected my windows media player on my computer as well. I was wondering if anyone had any information or a solution to my problem??
    thanks

    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • ITunes will not play songs, only videos

    When i restart my black MacBook, iTunes will play everything. But once i put it to sleep and then open it again, iTunes will only play my videos. When i try to play a song, it says its playing but its time stays at 0 seconds.

    This has happened to me on and off since version 8. It's very frustrating and usually requires several restarts before any music will play. It just sits at 0:00, videos will play but no audio.
    Anyone have a solution?

  • Itunes will not play if Chrome is running

    I recently installed iTunes 12.1 on a Toshiba Satellite running win 8.1. Problem is that when Goggle Chrome is running iTunes will not play. My library is there and the progress bar shows at the top of the screen but it stays at 0:00. If I close Goggle Chrome, and restart iTunes it works fine.  Chrome is the 64 bit version up to the latest revision. This is a brand new install so all software is current and patched. Any Ideas Why?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • ITunes will not play songs

    iTunes will not play any songs from my library. When I click on the song to play the title appears in the box as if it is going to play but the the bar does not move and then the title disappears and a bunch of lines appear.
    When I play a video, movie or TV program the video plays fine, but no audio comes out.
    Audio and video work fine in any other application and all the system sounds work fine. I can also play audio and video fine using Windows Media Player.
    I have shut-down and restarted several times and even let the computer stay shut-down overnight, but to no avail. I have upgraded to the newest version of iTunes and QuickTime. I have also made sure I have the most current version of all audio and video drivers for my laptop. I have also update Vista to Service Pack 1. I also noticed that MS Silverlight also loaded, so not sure if this could be causing my problems.
    Any help that anybody can provide would be greatly appreciated.

    Finally was able to fix the problem. Here is what I had to do:
    1. Uninstall MS Silverlight
    2. Install all new Audio and Video drivers (even though they were already the newest versions I had to re-install them).
    3. Installed newest MS Windows Vista upgrade.
    4. Restarted computer
    5. Made sure all my audio settings were set to use the proper speakers.
    Now everything is working fine.

  • Itunes will not play a number of songs in my library as they were purchased a long while ago using an email address and ISP that I no longer use. Any ideas?

  • Why my Ipad2 will not play rented video to a projector via vga adapter connection

    Hi, i want to know why my ipad will not play rented video to a projector using the apple vga adapter connector.  This is just basic mirroring and there should be no problem isn't it?  Please help.
    Thank you

    Technically, yes, it should be easy. However with rented videos you may be running into DRM (DIgital rights management) where you may not be allowed to play that video anywhere but on the iPad. The video could have a bit of programming in it that literally tells the HDMI or VGA output not to work.
    One way to test the connection, with your ipad's camera, shoot a short video and try to mirror that. If it mirrors and the movie doesn't then it's likely that you're simply not allowed to mirror it. If it doesn't play then there may be something wrong hardware or setting wise.

  • HT3775 My Macbook Air (still with Lion) will not play .avi video files

    My Macbook Air (still with Lion) will not play .avi video files (brought over from an older PC where they play with another viewer). This site implies Quicktime Player should be able to do so. Is there a codec or something else I'm supposed to download?

    I had found this through other threads, but it is what worked, even allowed my AVI files to be played in PowerPoint. Changing to 32-bit encryption did not work, BTW.

  • I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

    I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. 
    There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
