No icon for TV or movies cannot stream

Suddenly the apps for TV and video are gone on all of my apple tv's. Internet is up and running no issues and devices are connected is the service down? Netflix Hulu no issues.

Same here
Almost certainly an Apple server issue
Sit tight they'll be back

I do not have any icon for videos or movies on my IPad 3

I do not have any icon on my IPad 3 for videos or movies. How to get it
Message was edited by: carboran

If you mean on the home screen, you should probably get an iOS update. If you mean within specific apps, you should probably close down the app, reset it and try again. If you mean in general, you should reset the iPad (home and hold button together until apple logo shows). If you mean in life, you probably need to get to an apple store to get your iPad looked at or borrowing a pair of glasses.
Hope this helps and good luck.

Can stream movies; cannot stream live video to Apple TV

Hi all,
I have a new Apple TV and a 3rd generation iPad. I can stream movies to the Apple TV, but I can't stream live video (through Camera app), nor can I stream or mirror presentations from Keynote. I'm at a loss. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
John

Nevermind- figured it out. Streaming movies does not require you to activate mirroring. Presenting Keynote presentations and live video DOES! Duh....

Cannot stream ipod music on iphone 3g

I can successfully connect my iphone to my VW RNS510 phone system to receive/make calls. The system also has the ability to accept A2DP connections, to play audio through the stereo. In online demos, I have seen a bluetooth icon on the ipod play screen, allowing the audio to be sent via bluetooth. On my unit, I cannot get the icon to display, and therefore cannot stream my music. Although my phone connects without issue and I can listen to voice messages through the car stereo I cannot direct my music to the bluetooth connection.
I have the latest OS. Any thoughts/suggestions.
Thanks

Seems like the iPhone is not aware that your system is A2DP capable. Maybe a re-pairing will help. Try erasing the device from the iPhone bluetooth list and pairing again.

I switched modems to a cisco for high speed broadband now my homesharing will not show my computer so I cannot stream my movie collection. WI/Fi works as I can get apple TV and you tube. Of course my ISP is no help, any ideas.

After switching to a new Cisco router for higher speed broadband my homesharing will no longer show my computer so I cannot stream my movies. My WIFi functions as You tube Apple TV and Netflix all work,please help.

I have not tested the solution suggested in the article linked above.
But hope it helps.

The volume for movies cannot be found

Until recently, I had no problems opening the "Movies" volume, but all of a sudden it has disappeared - I get the message "The volume for movies cannot be found". I had only recently "tidied" up this computer ready to pass on to my daughter and so I cannot recall whether I still had any projects stored in this volume. I ran all the disc checks and repairs, and then installed the new Leopard OS, hoping that that would solve the problem. It hasn't. I am wondering if there is a way to solve this problem other than wiping the hard drive and reinstalling from scratch? Any advice would be much appreciated. Many thanks. - Merrilly

Hi Miriam,
Thank you for your suggestion. I had tried searching for the volume before, but with no luck. However, your suggestion led me to solving the problem. I went to my "home" and created a new folder which I called "Movies". Miraculously, the special "Movies" icon appeared. Then I just dragged it into the Finder sidebar, and all is now back to "normal" - when I click on the icon in the sidebar, it opens the newly created movies folder. (I suspect that I must have inadvertently deleted the original folder (and then emptied the recycle bin).)
I thought I was going to have to reinstall the OS.....and the solution was so simple!
Thanks for helping.
Cheers!

I cannot find the AirPlay icon for the life of me. I have iOS 7.0.2 on my iPad Mini. Connected to my WiFi network just fine. I swipe up to get to the control center badges and all I see is the AirDrop icon. Trying to disable mirroring on ipad for Netflix streaming and don't know what to do. Any luck out there?

If you last used an Apple TV to mirror your device and have updated to the newest Apple TV software, go into settings and turn airplay back on. The icon should then appear on your iPad mini when you swipe up allowing you to disable it for Netflix. After updating my Apple TV software for some reason it turned airplay off.

I still cannot stream YouTube/Netflix/iPlayer etc. on my iPhone 4 via WiFi since updating to iOS 6.0.1....can anyone please solve this for me??

I posted a couple of days ago about a problem my iPhone 4 was having trying to stream video via WiFi
Basically, since I upgraded to iOS 6.0.1 I cannot stream YouTube videos via the app or via Safari, Netflix will not work nor will services such as BBC iPlayer.
I've also discovered this evening I cannot stream any radio apps either.
All of them will play for 10-30 seconds then stop buffering making them impossible to play.
I was given several pieces of advice including restoring the phone to factory settings, restoring it as a new phone, hard resetting twice in a row, deleting all the cache/data in Safari but nothing that has been suggessted has solved the problem.
I know it is not a problem with my internet/WiFi as I have a laptop and a PC both using it and streaming YouTube/raddio stations etc. with no problem. Also, my girlfriend has a 3GS with the old YouTube player and that works with no problems at all.
Can anyone please help me out as it's getting a bit frustrating not being able to use the streaming function on my iPhone.
One thing that is odd, I have no problem surfing the web on the phone via WiFi or streaming over 3G. It is only a problem when trying to stream video/audio over WiFi.
Thanks.

This is a link to the Apple support page on this issue. Have you tried all of these steps?

Not sure what you mean that you have no signal but are on 3. What are you trying to say?

"The volume for Movies cannot be found" error message!

Hi,
For no reason that I can work out, when I go to view movies I have in my movie folder, I get the message;
"The document xxnamexx could not be opened because it is in the trash. To use this item, drag it out of the trash first"
Trouble is they are not in the trash at all. I get the same message for all movie in the folder. After poking around a bit, I am now getting the message;
"The volume for Movies cannot be found" and I cant access my movie folder...eek!
Any advice?
I have restarted and repaired permissions to no avail.

I want to start a new movie but iMovie is hung looking for an old file and says:"Without this file, the movie cannot play properly."

Hello!
I recently upgraded to Lion. Every time I start up iMovie, it asks if I want to go ahead and generate thumbnails. I say OK, then it alerts me that it cannot file the file IMG_0073.MOV. Then it says "Without this file, the movie cannot play properly." It gives me the option to either cancel or search for the movie.
I don't have the old file it's looking for. I simply want to start a fresh movie with new material but cannot get past this hump. Based on the little research I have done, some people experienced this problem because the files were in aperture at some point, which was the case for me before when I used iMovie. I have since moved forward only with iPhoto but perhaps it's hung on an old file format?
I tried taking another old movie and renamed it IMG_0073.mov to see if I could simply select it, give it what it wants and move on but it won't let me select the file for some reason. I also tried removing iMovie and downloading a fresh version but that didn't work either. My BF tried removing pfiles (I think that's what it's called? but again no luck)
Please help! I must get this assignment done for a class!

Is it possible to make an icon for a movie on the home screen?

Is there a way to make a direct icon for movie instead of going into the "Videos" icon?

If there is a website that plays your movie, then you can go to safari, type the website in, open the page, then tap the share arrow, then tap add to home screen. Thats as close to it that you can get.

There is nothing wrong with my internet connection.
Is that a -50 error message, jolyn?
If so, perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

I cannot find the icon for office:mac 08 word on my doc, where did it go?

I cannot find the icon for Office: mac 08 word on my doc. I downloaded the whole Office: mac 2008 Home & Student Edition about a year ago and just recently the word icon disappeared. The other Office icons are still visible and i am able to use them but i cannot find the word application anywhere.

Have you used spotlight search? Typed "word" and the application doesn't appear? If it doesn't then it probably isn't around anymore.... so hit command + space ... and type "word"... what happens?

"Searching for movie data... Without this file the movie cannot play..."

I have been deleting old projects from my hard drive (macbook pro) and my external hard drive.
Now, when I go into iMovie '09 to work on another project, the following warnings keep popping up on the screen:
"Searching for movie data"
and
"Without this file, the movie cannot play properly."
I click "cancel" but they keep popping up, prohibiting me from doing anything else in imovie.
If anybody has a clue how I can get rid of these warnings, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Hank

Ive been getting the same crap. Ive since deleted all of my imovie projects. It seems to have the problem when I am trying to pull up the videos in the iPhoto library. My particular file it is getting hung up on was used once in Sound Track Pro, but is not there anymore. Not sure if that rings a bell with you at all.
