Mavericks, iTunes, tv shows are black - can't play with any player

Oh no.  I installed Mavericks and now my bought TV shows won't play at all - the iTunes screen only shows a black frame.
QuickTime and VLC both are black as well.  It's very strange.
Is there an easy way, without having to do a wipe and reinstall, to fix this?
Thanks!

The message is from Microsoft Windows and says "iTunes has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working. Windows will close this program and notify you if a solution is available". I only get this when I try to play the TV programs or videos I have in my library. The songs play fine.
I don't know why I get the other message when I open iTunes (about the iTunes store). But I just click on OK and i goes away.

  • HELP!!! HD DVD can't play with DVD PLAYER

    Made a DVD with final cut pro from Sony HDV camcorder, play well on Macbook pro but can not play on regular DVD PLAYER

    That shouldn't surprise you.  DVD players can play DVDs, which are standard definition.  They will not play HD DVD discs.  For that you need a Mac or one of the (now obsolete) Toshiba HD DVD players.
    Essentially, you have three options for delivering video on optical disc.:
    DVD: standard definition content only.  Finalized disc will play in DVD players and most computers with DVD drives and player software installed.
    HD DVD: an obsolete format that was abandoned by its developers after losing out to Blu-ray.  HD DVDs use the same DVD-5 discs as DVD, but will play HD  content when played in an HD DVD player (none currently being made) or in later model Mac computers.  HD DVD discs will NOT play in DVD players.
    Blu-ray: Can play Blu-ray discs and DVD discs.  Blu-ray can contain both HD and SD content.  To create a Blu-ray disc, you'll need Blu-ray authoring software and a Blu-ray burner.  To view the disc, you'll need a Blu-ray player.  DVD players will not play Blu-ray discs.

  • HT4962 Are there any movies or tv shows that can be played with the Touch?

    Are there any movies or tv shows that can be played with the ITouch?  Attempted to download a tv show, however was advised it was not supported.  Is there a way to configure the show to be played?

    There are third-party converters like the Free HandBrake program.

  • TS3217 When I try to skip one song on my ipone, it skips through several. The songs that are skipped can be played on the same iphone if I go into my itunes and select that song. So this tells me that the song can be played, therefore, it is not the song.

    When I try to skip through a song on my iPhone, it skips through several songs. The songs that are skipped can be played on the same iphone (when I go into to itunes library on my phone), so I know that it's not the song. I have the latest softeware downloaded on both my iphone and itunes. In fact, this only recently started occuring when I reconnected my iphone to my laptop about a month ago to install the new updates on itunes.
    I also have an itouch and an ipod, both of which have been updated at the same time as my iphone and they do not skip through songs.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    BTW this is the iPod touch forum

  • Camera shows a black preview, if there is any operation running in the background thread.

    Hi,
    Camera launched from app using UIImagePickerViewController shows a black preview, if there is any operation running in the background thread. This was not an issue in ios 6. Can you please fix this with next update?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Dileep Kumar

    Some things that might help:
    1. Only the most recently used apps actually occupy memory (used to be the most recent 4, but may have changed in the latest iPhones). After 4 (or so), IOS writes them out of active memory, as it does for even the latest 4 if there's no activity for a long time. So the business of closing all the open apps, apart from the most recent ones doesn't make a difference. Tis article has a good explanation:
    http://www.speirs.org/blog/2012/1/2/misconceptions-about-ios-multitasking.html
    2. There are settings about background app activity that might help:
    - Settings, General, Background App Refresh controls which apps can update their data in the background
    - Settings, Notifications controls which apps can tell you things, which they have to wake up to do.
    - Settings, Privacy, Location Services controls which apps monitor your location - another activity that uses resources
    Hope some of that helps

  • I got a new computer and now iTunes is telling me it can't sync with two computers

    I got a new computer and now iTunes is telling me it can't sync with two computers, it's telling me it will erase what's on my iPad and re-sync. Will I lose my iPad data that's on it?

    No - not at all. Look at that one app that I gave you the link for. That is supposed to transfer all of the iPad content to the new computer. I have no idea how much it costs, but it's worth a look. There are other out there as well. Google "apps to transfer iPad content to computer" or something to that effect. These apps claim to transfer everything.
    Several things to remember - you can still transfer all of the iTunesicon tent that you purchased by using the Transfer Purchases option in iTunes. Just remember to turn off auto syncing before you do it. You will also have to authorize your new computer to transfer the purchase if you haven't done so already. From the iTunes menu on your computer go to Store> Authorize this computer.
    Plus any apps or music that you have bought can be downloaded again at no charge with the cloud feature in the latest iPad iOS.
    EDIT - I see that you did transfer the purchases. Look at one of those apps that I described and they should be able to get you set up. You should also invest in an external hardrive for backing up all of your computer content ... don't want this to happen again!

    Thanks

    Here are some things to try:
    Close itunes
    Check your internet settings.
    Control Panel – Internet Options – Advanced
    Check SSL 3.0 and TLS 1.0
    Uncheck “Check for server certificate revocation (requires restart)”
    Click Apply
    Click Okay
    Open itunes and try again
    And, you don't need to turn off the firewall, just add itunes and itunes helper to your security software firewall.

  • I bought a MAC for the first time and plugged my Itouch into it to download my music on it, but is says The iPod "Rick's IPOD" is synced with another iTunes library. An iPod can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. What should I do?

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

  • Device Control doesn't show Firewire & I can't communicate with my AJA IO

    Device Control doesn't show Firewire & I can't communicate with my AJA IO

    I've seen one other post about this and I've tried the responses to it: trash prefs, rebuild permissions, reboot the computer (let it rest and uplug), trash quicktime receipts and reinstall, uninstall AJA software and reinstall.
    The only thing I haven't tried is reinstalling my OS.
    I'm on FCP HD.
    I can capture and print to tape as an uncontrollable device. But I need to edit to tape tomorrow using the RS-422 to my digibeta deck via the AJA IO. It has worked in the recent past (last month), but in the past two weeks I can't control my deck.
    Also, I get the message "This computer does not have any serial ports required by this protocol" when I try to set up a new RS-422 AV device control setting.
    Help!

    Jerry, I can't thank you enough. I still have a few hairs left on my head thanks to you.
    I downgraded my AJA firmware and that did the trick.
    I had been on the phone with AJA last week tryingto fix this problem and we had tried everything except that. You know, the trash quicktime receipts, trash prefs, hard re-boot, etc.
    They were stumped and finally decided it was a Mac problem not an AJA problem. Ha! (Very nice folks though.)
    Your's was an answer I didn't find anywhere else in all my searching of forums.
    Thanks again!

  • HT4363 Have content of iTunes on both Appletvs but can only play on one.  Tv menu won't let me choose both locations.  How do I correct this?  ITunes Home Sharing is on.  Multiple Airplay is on from the iTunes menu, too.

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • My Itunes keeps telling me I can't play certain songs because I already have five computers authorized, but I don't???

    My Itunes keeps telling me I can't play certain songs because I already have five computers authorized, but I don't???  How do I fix this.  I know over the years, I have had a lot of different computers at my work and that is the only place I use my Itunes at.  So how do you unauthorize a computer that isn't even around anymore??

    Make sure that yo have the boxed chanced to only sync the checked music. It appears that it is trying to sync ore than those.
    You can try unsycing all music and resyncing.
