Playing Videos in the background in IOS 6.1

Since I updated to IOS 6.1, I cannot play the sound of a minimized video in the background. Does someone else also has that problem and how can I fix it?

No, not Apple?  This is a public user forum and surely this was pointed out to you when you signed up to post in the forum?
The highest software update for an iPhone 4s is 6.1.3 and that's it.  An iPhone 5 can be updated to 6.1.4, so the chances are that you friend in the US probably has either an iPhone 5 with 6.1.4 or is mistaken and has a 4s that has 6.1.3 on it.
The highest for a 4s is 6.1.3 which you already have.

  • How do you play videos from the "Videos" app in the background IPod 4G

    Hey
    I used to have an app which allowed me to play videos from the "Videos" app on my ipod touch 4th gen. But the other day I had to wipe my ipod and can no longer get this app. Is there any other app which imports your videos from the "videos" app or is there a way to play videos in the background using the "videos" app.
    Anny help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Karl

    You can only play videos in the Videos app when the Video app is on the screen. Video, and any audio with it, do not play when using another app.
    You can try changing the Media Kind in Get Info>Option in iTunes on the computer to Music Video and see if that works

  • Why can't I play Safari and Chrome videos in the background anymore?

    Before iOS 6, I was able to play videos on Safari and Google Chrome while the app is running in the background. I really enjoyed playing music from YouTube videos in the background whilst multitasking on other things. How come I can't do this anymore? Is it a copyright/compatibility issue or something? When I play a video, and pull up the app switcher to play the music, it has the app there, but when I press Play it doesn't do anything.

    I did more research and found that after the 4.2.2 update if you leave the @me.com or @mac.com OFF of your "add mobileme account when logging onto ATV that the error message: cannot load content, try again later goes away and allows your Gallery movies to play.  Hope this helps.

  • Firefox freezes when i visit websites with videos on the background or i watch videos.I have windows 7 and the laatest version of mozilla.

    I have windows 7 and the latest version of firefox.When i watch videos on youtube or visit websites with videos on the background mozilla freezes. I tried to disable all the extensions and plugins but it had no result.I didn't had this problem with versions of mozilla previous to 4.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • TS5148 When I try to play a movie on Netflix from my IPad, I get a pop up saying: Cannot play video. "The connected display is not supported".

    When I try to play a movie on Netflix from my IPad, I get a pop up saying: Cannot play video. "The connected display is not supported".  I have updated my Apple TV, tried restarting it, and have tried using my IPod Touch all without any luck. This display has worked in the past. This just happen a couple days ago.
    Any ideas out there?

    I have been successfully using my Apple TV with my iPad2 to access Netflix through airplay (mirroring) and suddenly it won't work.  It says "the connected display is not supported"  What's up?
    Also when I try to stream Netflix through my Apple TV menu on my television it says "An error occurred loading this content.  Try again later.  But trying again later doesn't work any better.
    Now the only way I can watch Netflix is using my small iPad screen.  It appears the problem is with streaming Netflix through my Apple TV

  • HT201177 I can't play videos on the web - they just stall - stop and start.

    when I am playing videos on the web, Vimeo for example, they play for about one or two seconds and stall.  Then they play another one or two seconds and so on for the entire video.  I have no means of changing the download size in safari preferences.  I am at a loss what to do.  i know of no-one else with this difficulty and the Microsoft laptop on the same broadband router dos not have this problem.

    Empty the Cache, and you can also try the RE-SET Safari option from the menu-bar.
    Let us know if anything changes.

    Ziatron is correct that Flash does not work on an iPad, but it does work on a Mac. See Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.160.

  • There are diagonal stripes on some clips on the timeline and wont play video in the program monitor.

    After reconnecting some origianl files after a hard drive crashed, there are diagonal stripes on some clips on the timeline that wont play video in the program monitor. They do however play in the source monitor.

    Those stripes are most likely the missing media indicators, which means you've relinked to the wrong clips.

    Does anyone have any idea why I am not able to play videos on the internet? Can't play any on youtube, news web sites... any. Please help

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Some websites that deploy video have not enabled the feature. Visit www.apple.com and try one of the video those to test whether Airplay is working as it should.
    If not ensure your software on all devices is up to date, restart them all and try again, otherwise you might have a network issue.

  • My iPad 2 just stopped playing videos. The original comes with the iPad video icon opens with a blank black screen and does not repond. I have shut all apps, shut the computer down, but no good. Where to from here?

    My iPad just stopped playing videos. The original app that comes with the iPad opens with a blank black screen. I have shut all apps, and the shutdown the co ad, but no effect. Where to from here?

    Try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
    If that doesn't work then I normally suggest closing the Videos app via the taskbar and re-opening it, and then a reset by pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds unilt the Apple logo should appear - but as it sounds like you've alreadt tried that, then see if the spotlight search works.

  • N96 only plays videos from the start

    My N96 only plays videos from the start. Whenever I press the 'play from where it stopped' function the sound works okay but the picture isn't there. Also the same problem occurs when I try to fastforward or rewind videos. As you can imagine this is not much use when I'm trying to watch a film in stages.

  • Is it possible to play audio from video in the background while using a different app?

    I would like to be ale to play audio from a video file in videos (or av player hd) in the background whie using a diffent app in my iPad 2. (ie watching a video while taking notes on the content or highlighting an e-textbook).
    Is this possible? Either through the original iPad functionality or by downloading a separate app?
    Thanks,

    Is it important that the music come from a video, or are you just looking to listen to music in the background, while doing something else.  If the later, you can certainly play music from the Music App, Pandora, or iHeart Radio, etc., and with the music playing, tap your home button to go to your home page and open anything else you want and the music will continue.
    I don't have any videos to try out right now, but you try the same thing out and if the music continues, it works.  If it doesn't, it doesn't.
