Media does not play when selected!

My Problem:
Any song or video I select does not proceede past 0:00 on the counter, despite the "play triangle" being displayed. Everything displays correctly, and it even feels and sounds like it's booting up the song/video and loading it, but no audio comes out and the screen remains black on videos.
What I've done:
Reset it many, many times.
Drained the battery completely, pluged it in, and fully charged it.
The 5 "basics."
Nothing was purchased from the iTunes Store.
I would appreciate any help or thoughts on how to fix my $350 hunk of junk.

*Nothing was purchased from the iTunes Store.*
You need to determine if the music meets Apple's specifications. I would also suggest that you invest 99 cents and find out if music from the iTMS works properly. That will give you a reference regarding your non-iTMS music.

Sure. The iPod should function correctly regardless of whether or not the music complies with the specifications.

    I am getting no sound on my macbook pro. The sound does not play when I plug in headphones either.  I have tried making it louder quieter, restarting my computer, HELP!

    There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
    2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and anything is plugged in, unplug it before putting the system to sleep.
    3. If you've installed something called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and reboot. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
    4. If you've installed an equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and reboot.
    5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
    6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
    7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Reboot and test.
    9. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    10. Reset the NVRAM.
    11. Reset the SMC.
    12. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data. For a possible shortcut, see this thread.
    13. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • Busy greeting does not play when I am on another call

    My busy greeting does not play when I am on another call. My regular greeting plays. I called verizon and they gave me some **bleep** about how that feature doesn't work if you have call waiting. It USED to work for me and why do they promote it as a dfeature with their Freedom Essentials package that comes with call waiting? Does anyone know what is going on? I need this feature to work for me.

    Also in the cases of incoming calls or if you place a call and forget to dial *70, in many states you can use 3 way calling to click over and dial *70 to activate Tone Block while on a call. You will hear 3 short confirmation tones and will then be returned to your other call. HOWEVER, do this with care because in some areas there will be a charge for using the 3 way calling if you do not have a monthly subscription to it. In other states Verizon will permit you to use 3 Way solely for the purpose of activating Tone Block without a charge. So check to see what the rules are where you are beforehand.

    When was the last time that WIFI worked on the HP4530s?  If you aer using a dock, then remove the laptop from the dock.
    You can check the status of the WIFI adapter in Device Manager.  You should have something similar to the below image if your model is equipped with WIFI.

  • Why video does not play when embedded in a PDF when viewed in Windows 8?

    I have a situation where video must be embedded within the PDF document and it was working for us using older versions of IE and on 32 bit machines and using acrobat X. When the same file was tested on Windows 8 it looks good and behaves well except the embedded video does not play. The same video (.mp4) will play on the new OS if it is not embedded in the PDF.
    Is this because the PDF is looking for a 32 bit flash player? Am I doing something wrong and/or is there a fix for this situation?

    Are you watching the pdf file from Adobe Reader?
    Windows 8 by default has a diferent reader for pdf files that does not support rich media elements.

  • Detail region does not refresh when selecting from a drop-down list in master region

    I am using DW CS3 and have updated to version 1.6.1 of Spry.  Using an XML dataset, I am able to create a Spry table as the master region that links to a detail region that displays a small JPG graphic.  It works fine in this format (clicking on a row displays the correct graphic).  However, my table has 80 rows and requires the user to do too much scrolling. So I changed the master region to a drop-down repeat list, but the graphic does not change when a new selection is made in the drop down list.  Listed below is the code produced when I used the insert Spry Repeat List.  I got the same results when adding a spry:setrow="dsChartNurse".  I also tried -- onclick="dsChartNurse.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}');" -- which again made no difference.
    When I removed children from the spry:repeat, the master region displayed as a two column list of all 80 items in a drop-down list format.
    <div spry:region="dsChartNurse">
           <select name="select" spry:repeatchildren="dsChartNurse">
             <option value="{name}">{name}</option>
           </select>
    </div>
    <div id="image" spry:detailregion="dsChartNurse">
       <img src="{dataimage}" align="center" style="margin:50px 0 0 0"width="320" height="164" />
    </div>
    Thanks so much to anyone who can help correct my code in order to have a drop-down list display information correctly in the detail region.

    Thanks for the quick reply.  I did solve the problem I was having by changing from onclick to onchange in the master region.  But, now I have another problem with, of course, IE.  I just put in online at http://www.minursemap.org/ageDistNurse.html.  When opened in IE, the drop down list displays the last entry, but the image is for the first in the list.  Thanks again for your help.

  • Mp4 file does not play when exported to swf?

    I am putting together an interactive flash file that I have created in inDesign (CS4).
    I have had no problems creating and exporting links, buttons etc, but when it comes to embedding video I am experiencing trouble..I have a video which I have converted to mp4 H.264 format, and there appears to be no problems when uploading but when I export, the video does not play, and there is just a black box in its place with no controls. I have tried converting the file into various other formats, all with no luck. I hope you can tell me where the problem lies!
    Thank you

    Support for placed videos in exported SWF was introduced in InDesign CS5 so it does not suppose to work with CS4...

  • Add-ons window does not appear when selected from Tools/Addons unless new tab opened first

    Addons window does not open when Tools/Addons selected, unless New Tab (blank) selected first. Is there a fix, or is this a bug
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == upgraded to 3.0

    This is an issue with one of your add-ons, Mr Tech Toolkit, it is a known problem but I know of no fix, though there are some workarounds.
    In the Mr Tech Toolkit options, on the "Manager Hacks > Behaviour" section, you will have "Select Window Target" set to "New Tab". A workaround is to change it to "New Window"
    Another workaround is to use a bookmark to open the add-ons manager in a tab. Create a bookmark with the following location:

  • Why Wizard does not start when selecting Current User?

    Program does not RUN. Wizard does not open after selecting Option for Current User

    Did you try downloading and running the Firefox FULL installer, '''Firefox Setup 29.0.exe''' ? That will help with problems running the stub installer, which needs to download additional files after you run it.
    You can get Firefox FULL installer here: (choose the Windows download for your language, e.g., English US)
    * https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
    Once you install Firefox, you may have to run it once with an Administrator account, if the installation was from a limited account. Ref: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installing_Firefox
    If you install Firefox on a multi-user system where access privileges are restricted, you must run Firefox as a user with access to that location upon installation so that all initial startup files are generated.

  • FLV File does not play when published to my web server

    Hi. I have created a short video in VC3 and selected the FLV option to create a web page. When I uploaded the entire file content to my web server (windows 2003 server hosted at Network Solutions) the FLV file will not play. Now... if I do the same with a WMV tile, the video plays.
    You can view the file at

    We have another video published in WMV format, although the video vs audio sync is out of wack at the moment, at

    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi again
    You should probably double-check to ensure the standard.js file was also copied in when the HTML page was imported. It should be there but it never hurts to double check.
    You might also perform a double-check to ensure things ended up in the correct folder (if you are organizing your project into folders). It could be that you moved the HTML page into a different folder and orphaned the JavaScript file.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Image does not display when selected

    Images are not displayed on opening. Progress bar "Reading Photoshop format" runs and fnishes. Layer info is displayed at right. But the image is not shown in the work space.
    (Added) Problem occurs with PSD and DNG (ACR) file types only. JPG files open fine. DNG opens in ACR but the "Open" button has no effect. PSD does not appear at all, when selected.
    Any ideas appreciated.

    Looks like stopping/restarting PS resolved this issue, at least for the moment. I'm quite new to the Mac World, and may have pressed some wrong keys/combinations (?).
