Movies Play in French
Mavens,
On both my iPad Mini & iPhone 5S, several iTunes-purchased movies...which used to play just fine...are now playing in French--although English is selected.
Yet...on my Mac using iTunes...the same movies play in English.
On the iPad or iPhone...they resume playing where I left off...except in French.
This seems to be the case for both iCloud-based movies and videos downloaded to the iPad or iPhone.
Any ideas? How can English be specified for movie playback on the iPad & iPhone (running iOS 7.0.4)?
Thanks!

@Diavonex,
Yes; I guess I should have stated that I spent an ~hour researching, searching, trying to fiddle with various settings (of which there are very few) before submitting my question.
The subtitle pane (selected by tapping the icon you highlighted) allows for selecting subtitle language (at least on my iPad Mini and iPhone 5S)...not for selecting the audio language.

Movie trailer plays in french no language choice
the star trek trailer plays in french with no onscreen option to change language. Why?
The OEM Vista doesn't have language choice unless you use the Ultimate version, the language of the Vista is stated on the bottom of the laptop on the microsoft sticker.

IMAC DVD Player does not recognizing dvd movie . I have an IMAC (10.7.4) using DVDPlayer (vers. 5500.26.11) and it will not recognize/play a dvd movie...it thinks it is a blank dvd. The IMAC will play rented dvd movies. The dvd movie plays fine on my Mac Book Pro (10.6.8) on the Pro's DVDPlayer (vers.5.4) abd in my external Sony DVD Player The dvd move was made/burned on a PC. Why will a dvd movie play on my Macbook Pro and not my IMAC?
Hello:
This is not an area I have much experience in......I rarely insert DVDs and I have never had a similar problem.
When the DVD is in the drive (and DVD players is open) click on File>get disk info.

FCP 4: NTSC monitor image FROZEN/movie plays JITTERY in canvas window.
Hey guys. This started yesterday. Every time I hit play, the image from the frame I began playing at on the timeline remains frozen on my NTSC monitor, while the movie plays jittery, roughly, totally unsmoothly in the canvas window. I'm pretty sure I've tried all of Shane's answers, but right now I'm stuck. Any help is immensely appreciated.
PowerPC G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)Shane's stock answers addresses this, but make sure
that under the View mene that you are set to "All
Frames" and not "Single Frame"
Yeah, I had that covered from the beginning, but this sucker is stuck on whatever frame I begin to play from.

Movies playing in iTunes will not show closed captions
I have purchased several movies from the iTunes store. They all have Closed Captioning listed in the store description. I need Closed Captioning because I have hearing loss and even with my hearing aids, I cannot hear all the dialogue in movies.
In my iTunes app, I opened Preferences-->Playback and checked the box for "Show closed captioning when available." Then I play the movie in iTunes. No captions. I click on the Controls menu for Audio & Subtitles. It's grayed out.
I go to the .m4v file in Finder and open the movie with Quicktime to see whether I can get captions that way. No captions. I check the View menu for Show Closed Captioning. It's grayed out.
At this point I'm thinking these movies do not really HAVE captions, despite what the store description said. However, this proves to be wrong because I turn on my TV and start up my Apple TV 3. I select "Movies" and then "Purchased" and find these movies. When I play these movies via the Apple TV, they all show up on the TV screen with the captions working perfectly.
So, what gives? I've spent hours searching the internet for a solution, but all I can find is that the selection I've made in iTunes preferences *should* make the captions show up in iTunes. I'm stumped. I want to play the movies on my computer in iTunes (or in Quicktime) so that I don't have to be at my house in front of my TV in order the enjoy them. Is there any way I can make these movies play in iTunes with the captions showing? Can anyone make any suggestions? I'd be very grateful if someone could help me achieve this goal.I have same problem with my son's iPod Touch running iOS 5.1.1. I set "explicit" to off, but then many songs we purchased on iTunes that are labeled as "clean" do not show up on his iPod Touch. If I set "explicit" to on, they do show up.

How do I use airplay to stream a DVD movie playing in my computer to display on my TV?
How do I use airplay to stream a DVD movie playing in my computer to display on my TV?
I have a 2nd generation Apple TV and computer is a 2011 Macbook Pro. Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7. Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3. Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB. Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63). Storage: about 500GB free out of 750GB.
I have a DVD player within my computer. Trying to play a movie from my computer to display onto my TV using my Apple TV airplay. But the airplay icon is not showing or giving the option to play a movie onto my TV.
I've installed all software updates and still I'm not able to have this functionality.
I assume this functionality exists where I can play a DVD on my computer, but watch it on my TV using my Apple TV, correct?
Thanks for your help solving this puzzle.Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). You can see which Mac you have and which operating system you are using by selecting 'About this Mac' from the Apple menu in the top left corner of your Mac and selecting the 'More Info' button.
AirPlay Mirroring from a Mac also requires a fairly robust network.
You may find a third party product that you can use instead of AirPlay. -
Mirror zoomed-in movie playing on iPod Touch 5g to Apple TV via Airplay?
Is it possible to mirror a zoomed-in movie (1080p) playing on my iPod Touch 5g to the 3rd gen Apple TV via Airplay?
My Soniq TV doesn't have a zoom feature and I know that Apple TV can't zoom.
I want the movie to fill the entire screen of my TV (I don't mind cropping some of the edges off). I can zoom in on the movie playing on my iPod Touch 5g but when I enable airplay mirroring to the Apple TV, it reverts to the 1080p format with black bands along the top and bottom. I know it is using airplay and not mirroring to play the video on the Apple TV but I want to display exactly what's showing on my iPod Touch 5g on the Apple TV. Is there a work-around or an app in the App Store that enables this?Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring

Reloaded Itunes on an XP machine. Reloaded because Itunes would not open. Now when I play a movie that is in my library, the movie plays for aprx. 60 seconds and then reverts back to my Itunes library. Does it with all movies in the library, Most where downloaded from Itunes. Any ideas on a cure?
This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes. Before iOS 8, movies played fine. After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive. Anyone else have a similar issue?
I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view. -
Updated iPad 2 last night. All movies (9) on my iPad can no longer be viewed. The movie plays but the photos and scene selection are blank. How do I fix this
Quit the app and restart the iPad.
In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Try the videos app again. -
I just bought Apple TV 2 weeks ago. I have a brand new Samsung LED TV. Everything works fine. I rented a movie from iTunes and it took 4 hours to download. My friend said this is wrong, his movies play instantly, so what's wrong?

I'm interested in Apple TV for the mirroring feature through AirPlay, but will only purchase if I can still use my mac as normal whilst i'm watching what is being mirrored on the tv. Is this possible in any way? like possibly having the movie playing on desktop 2 and mirroring that and still use the mac with the other desktops to browse the internet etc?
No, AirParrot isn't a solution for dexta,
AirParrot gives mirroring function to older computer that are unsupported by the Apple's mirrorring function. Dexta is looking to extend is display which isn't a feature of AirParrot.
AppleTV will only gives you direct access to some web content using the builtin features like YouTube, Netflix, etc. If you are looking for unsupported access to other website without using mirroring, then the AppleTV isn't the best hardware to answer your need. -
Images enlarge and movies play in iweb, but not when published
Everything works fine in the program, but when published to site or folder, photos are there, but won't enlarge. The movie thumbnail shows with the little movie icon in the corner, but clicking does nothing.
On all of your pages you have an image that appears to cover the photos preventing them from being clicked on.
Move it to the back via the Arrange menu or get rid of it.
How did you add the videos to the page? If you just dragged them onto the page or used the movie page then iWeb will have to upload them when it publishes the page and all will load when the page is accessed which can cause long loading time for the page.
Also thre are some files missing for the TV page as seen in the Activity window (Command+Option+A) for the page. Publish the site to a folder on your hard drive and open it there. Check to see if the movies play OK (after you fix that overlaying image issue). If they do then the problem lies in the uploading of the files.
If those files are Quicktime then the viewers must have Quicktime installed on their computer in order to view them. See this page on Roddy's iWeb for Musicians site for methods of presenting movies that will let all computers view them: Player-Showcase.html. See the list at the right for different players you can use.
