Music or videos on websites will not play

When logged on to a website to check out a song or video, the song or video will not be displayed. Sometimes there is even a blue cube in the place where the song or video should be. Why is this and how can this be fixed? Thanks.

Not at this time. It will have to be added as a firmware update sometime in the future.

    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 videos and resync

  • I continue to get an error message when I go to most websites, and videos on websites will not play.

    I think it has something to do with the Adobe update I just installed. Internet Explorer works fine still, so I think it is a problem with Firefox. See the error message below:
    Microsoft Visual C + + Runtime Library

    I uninstalled Real Player and problem is completely gone!

  • I just bought a new mac mini and an external DVD burner. I want to burn a DVD video and it will not play on the TV but only on the computer? Need this figured out for tomorrow.

    I just bought a new mac mini and an external DVD burner. I want to burn a DVD video and it will not play on the TV but only on the computer? Need this figured out for tomorrow. Can anyone help me?

    Congratulations on the new Mini. Are you saying you tried burning and it does not play, or do you want to burn it only for the computer to be able to play it?

  • I have just updated itunes to 10.7 and now my videos and flims will not play. I get a message saying itunes has stopped working. Can you help

    I have just updated itunes to 10.7 and now my videos and flims will not play.

    This helped overcome the crash problem, but (as reported before), I still have to start iTunes in Safe Mode in order to watch any videos. This has been the case since 10.5.
    The regular mode behavior has changed a bit - instead of the progress bar moving to the end of the video, showing no video but playing the audio for about three seconds, it now leaves the progress bar where it is ... but the rest of the behavior hasn't changed.
    Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit on an HP dv8t quad-core laptop w/ 8 GB RAM, running nVidia GeForce 230M with 1 GB video RAM.
    Thanks for your prompt response to the original problem posted above. At least now I'm back where I started from before I upgraded to 10.7. Not optimal, but I've finally gotten used to doing a Ctrl-Shift-click to run iTunes.

  • Some videos on YouTube will not play

    As of a few days ago some of the videos on YouTube will not play I tried IE(I stopped using after it ask for an update) ,but then I had to use google chome and I hate it, but the videos played. Its not every video, and some times it's the same video I just played not to long ago. I fear that soon I might not be able to view most videos on YouTube. I cleared my cache, made sure everything it up-to-date, although Silverlight-plugin will not update, no matter what I try to do( I hope that is not the reason, because Silverlight won't up-date.) I'm am not sure when this problem first arose, at first I though it was Google/YouTube having issues, but it seems like Google's browser works fine on the videos that do not play on Firefox. What can I do, I need Firefox to work, I can't bare to move to another browser.

    A few other thoughts:
    (1) For a video where this happens, does the problem persist if you try reloading a few times using Ctrl+Shift+r?
    (2) Is there any difference in how you connect to Youtube between your browsers? You can check Firefox's connection setting here:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network mini-tab > "Settings" button
    The default is "Use system proxy settings" but you also could try "No proxy".
    (3) Have you received any SSL-related errors, such as pages reporting a certificate problem and requiring you to make an exception, or missing styles or functionality on secure sites?
    (4) If you opted in to the html5 player, is there a pattern of the problem videos being in one format or the other (HTML5 player vs. Flash player)? https://www.youtube.com/html5

  • TS1717 music video downloaded but will not play

    i just downloaded a music video, but will not play. Comes up as a blank screen. Any ideas ?

    Hi c, well my first thot is that it didn't install. You can verify this at www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
    Just a word of advice, if you continue trying to implement a solution before you know what the problem is,
    you are just creating a worse situation.
    Post back with what operating system are you using?
    Which Browser and version?
    Post back with that info please and advise what the link said.
    Thanks

  • Quicktime videos on web will not play

    on one website in particular, the quicktime videos will not play. on another website, they will.

    This won't work because you have to pay to view the videos. However, I was told that others can view the videos.
    I discovered that if I disable my security software, the Web protection part, then I can view the videos. I tried just typing in the website URLs as "exceptions" to the web protection, but that did not work. perhaps my security software firm can help.

  • HT202213 When I have downloaded and paid for music several time the song will not play, saying that my computer is not authorized.  When I follow insturction to authorize the computer says it already  authorized and song or songs will not play...... Help.

    Authorized music purchased will not play says unauthorized to play and when you follow instructions to fix the issue says authorized...

    If only a few songs on an album are doing that, that suggests the tracks are damaged.
    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Videos on iPad will not play now with ios7

    TV shows we purchased from iTunes, that our son has watched many times and are invaluable while traveling, will not play now that we have upgraded to ios7. The videos load, but then seize up over and over. Please fix or let us restore to 6 immediately. Similar to Crowls1010.

    Hallo  Jake 1000
    I have the same problem but only on my iPad (after iOS7, even after changing SIM), Load very few videos from Youtube, unable to watch video from internet browser.  iPhone works OK.  Is there anyone there who knows why?
    Thanks.

  • I downloaded iTunes to a new computer and authorized that computer but my music is grayed out and will not play, how do I get access to my music?

    I installed iTunes to a new computer and authorized that computer but my music is grayed out.  How do I get access to my music?

    Is there a way to change that?
    You can easily set up the iPod to automatically sync to your current iTunes library (or just do a Restore), but that will replace the iPod's existing content with content from your current iTunes library (erasing the iPod).  If your old computer was "retired" gracefully and you were able to transfer its complete iTunes user data to your new computer, there is no problem because all of the songs on the iPod now are already in your current iTunes library.  However, if there are songs on the iPod that are not in your current iTunes library, those songs will be lost.  That may be a problem...
    If you want to preserve what is on the iPod, you can try setting the iPod to Manually manage music and videos.  I believe you can do that from an iTunes library that is not the iPod's currently associated library.  Select the iPod in iTunes, so that you see its Summary settings screen.  Check the box for Manually manage music and videos.  (If iTunes puts up any warning about erasing or replacing the iPod's existing content, Revert the change and cancel out.)  Click Apply.  The iPod is no longer set to automatically sync.  But you can add new content manually to what is already on the iPod.  And the songs should not be grayed out. 
    However, you cannot use iTunes to transfer songs on the iPod to your current iTunes library (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  If there are songs on the iPod that are not in your computer's iTunes library, you should eventually "offload" those song files because your iPod can easily break, become corrupted, or get lost.  iTunes syncs content in one direction only (from computer to iPod), but there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like iPod "transfer," you should get some links, including a CNET article on the topic.
    Once all of your songs are "consolidated" in your current iTunes library, you can set up the iPod for automatic syncing to that library.

  • Videos on-line will not play

    I am attempting to watch a video in line. I have both Windows media player and flip for mac. Windows media player gives an error message of "error creating unique tmp file". Some videos on-line will play fine.

    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    Assuming you already run OS 10.4.9 or above and have Quicktime 7.2, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer from http://uk.real.com/player/
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
    In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
    Now repair permissions and restart.
    The world should now be your oyster!
    You should also have the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.

  • IPhone video H.264 will not play in iPhoto '11 Slideshow

    Hello,
            I use iPhoto to organize videos and .jpgs; I take videos both with a Sony camera and my iPhone. I often trim videos in iPhoto and then play them as part of a Event or Album, along with .jpgs, using the SlideShow feature before moving on to iMovie or Keynote. Recently I have encountered difficulties with iPhone H.264 videos, particularly in vertical format -- they simply won't play in the iPhoto simple SlideShow and lock it up (a simple X then ends the SlideShow and iPhoto is no longer locked). The vertical iPhone videos work in iMovie if I simply move them there. I have not detected any problems with the Sony videos, which are invariably horizontal. I am not experiencing any other iPhoto issues although my library is >125GB.
         Any Suggestions?
        Thanks for your thoughts.

    léonie,
         @#$^$%^ Computers!
         After I realized I could not determine the frame rate (to respond to your post), out of frustration I went back, restored the most troublesome video to original, closed iPhoto, re-opened iPhoto, re-trimed the troublesome video, and .... yep, you guessed it .... it worked fine. It had to be something in the trim process.
         I haven't taken time to check the others that were problematic, but I'm confident that was the problem.
         @#% how much of my time; how much of your time.....but, still far better than the years I spent watching a rotating hourglass.
         Thanks for your interest, your offer to help, and my best to you. (And, my apologies for failing to include the accent grave in your name previously.
