Rented movie; will not display; native video app will not display any of my videos

I rented a movie last night using the iTunes Store app on my iPad.  The movie just barely started, then froze.  Now the native video app doesn't work at all.  I can tell that it's "on" when I touch the "video" app -- the screen displays nothing, but it's dimly lit.  Help!  Has anyone else had this problem?

Carolyn: I was able, through more research in the discussion groups, to find a solution that resolved my problem! In the HD>applications folder>safari>get info I checked the "open in 32 bit mode" box. Then I went to Adobe Reader>preferences>Internet and unchecked the box "display PDF in browser using" [Adobe Reader 9.3.3]. I then closed my Safari Browser, restarted the computer and, happy days are here again! On my older G5 I only had to set the preferences on the Adobe Preferences, as Safari 5.0.1 only appears to work in 32 bit mode, as the 32 bit mode check box was not there. You may want to pass this on to other users with the same or similar problems.

  • Hello, I'm wondering if any of you know whether or not there's an App that allows you to watch multiple video formats online (like online TV series, movies etc) Thank you so much

    I wish I had a better answer for you, but that pretty much encapsulates it. There is some, but not much, good wisdom out there, but it takes a significant amount of experience to be able to recognize it. The software development community if currently afflicted with a case of copy-and-paste-itis. And the prognosis is poor.
    The solution is to be brutal to yourself and others. Focus on what you need and ignore everything else. Remember that other people have their own needs and methods and they might not be applicable to you. Apple, for example, can hire thousands of programmers, set them to coding for six months, pick the best results, and have the end-users spend their own time and monety to test it. If you don't have Apple's resources and power, think twice about adopting Apple's approach. And I am talking from a macro to a micro perspective. Apple's sample and boilerplate code is just junk. Don't assume you can't do better. You can.
    Unfortunately, all this takes time and practice. You can read popular books, but never assume that anyone knows more than you do. Maybe they do and maybe they don't. It takes time to figure that out. Just do your best, ignore the naysayers, and doubt other people even more than you doubt yourself.

  • Rented movies showing up twice in iTunes and will not transfer to my iPad 2 because "already transfered to another computer or device."

    Rented movies show up twice in iTunes and will not transfer to my iPad 2 because "already transfered to another computer or device."  Ideas on how to enable movie sync?

    My understanding is that rented movies can be viewed on only one device - the device that originally received the movie.  Consequently, they can not be synced.
    I can not explain why you see them twice in iTunes.

  • Video app does not show movies or tv programs. What can I do?

    The Video app does not show the movies and tv programs stored in the Ipad. They are still there. In fact, I can play them back in my computer when the Ipad is connected. I have closed the app, turned off/on the Ipad to no avail. What can I do?

  • Since updating to OS7 the video app doesn't show any titles for movies I have downloaded on my iPad. Anyone have the same problem or a fix?

    Since updating to OS7 the video app doesn't show any titles for movies I have downloaded on my iPad. Anyone have the same problem or a fix?

    Many users have solved the problem by syncing several times; and if that doesn't work, perform a simple restore. Your titles will come back.

  • HT4976 Since updating my iphone 4S to ios 7.1 my phone will no longer ring and apps do not have sound.

    Since updating my iphone 4S to ios 7.1 my phone will no longer ring and apps do not have sound. I have made sure the do not disturb is not turned on and have also gone into Accessibility and made sure sound is not off there.  I have done a reboot and also a reset of the settings.  When I set my ring tone, the sample tone plays, however, the phone only vibrates when I get a call. The apps also do not have any sound. Everything was working fine until the update.

    I am positive the half moon isn't there. That one caught me once before so now I am careful to check.
    Thanks for the idea tho!

    will the info in my apps (Passwords, notes and records) be saved when I update to iOS5

    Yes, as long as you back up the iPod first via iTunes before performing the update.  Use the instructions in this Apple support document to walk you through the upgrade process.

  • TS1702 What to do when you get "iTunes library app not installed on iPhone; app could not be found"

    What to do when you get "iTunes library app not installed on iPhone; app could not be found". None of the Apple suggestions fix the problem. For example, with Animoto, one of the problem apps, I have removed it, reinstalled it, and still get the eoor message.

    Of course.
    First of all, this started when an external drive i was using died on me. I have no doubt that these apps indeed are off my system. I figure between the apps I've bought for myself and my kid, I have about 150 apps.
    Now. The issue.
    When I sync my iPad with iTunes on my desktop, it goes through normally until it gets to the apps. When that happens, it get an error box that reads "Some of the apps in your iTunes library were not installed on the iPad because one or more errors occurred. For a list of appps that could not be installed, click on the triangle below."
    Then I get a list of apps.
    (Added note to any iTunes developers out there: The titles of the apps in this list do not always match the titles of the apps in the App Store. For example, one was called "MuseumGame" on my iPad. It's called "Museum of Thieves" on the App Store. I started out with a list of 60 apps. It was a major pain to track them all down. It would be nice to have everything the same so I can use the App Store search more effectively.)
    Anyway, moving on....
    The error message stops my sync until I dismiss it. That, honestly, is what makes this whole thing annoying enough to seek out an answer. I can't let my iPad start syncing and walk out of the room. Yeah. I know. First World problems.
    Once I dismiss the error, the sync continues and all is well.
    I did the following to try to fix the problem. Mostly, I did a lot of searches:
    My list of purchased apps on my iPad both using the search box and by going to every page
    Searched the main App Store on my iPad using the search field. When that didn't work, I used wider searches and just scanned the page(s) for the little cloud icon that showed I had purchased the app.
    I got on my desktop iTunes and searched the apps from there (without a lot of hope, but trying to be complete)
    At that point, I came to the conclusion that a small number of the apps are no longer available on the App Store.
    Fine. I didn't want them anyway.
    I got into iTunes and went to the Apps page. None of the errant apps showed up there. I searched the iTunes help files. Nothing. I crossed my fingers, said a little prayer to the search engine gods, and tried Google. I found some things that sort of matched but they basically boiled down to "re-download the app from the App Store" or "Restore your iPad".
    So I spent a couple of hours restoring my iPad. I got the error message again. I hit Google again and came up with this thread. It was as close to my problem as I found.
    I think that brings us up to date.
    My fundamental problem is that I seem to have found a scenario where if you have to restore apps (because, perhaps, your external drive died) and some of the apps are no longer available for download, there is an error generated that can not be permanently dismissed.
    Did I miss anything important?

  • IPad Video App- Titles Not Displaying

    Hello.. I've synced some movies to my iPad and in the Video app, the Movies used to have names underneath the cover art. For some reason, it's not being displayed. I don't know why this is happening. This did start after I signed up with iTunes Match. The Music Videos that I have show the title and have a cloud next to it. Don't know if this is related.
    I also restarted the iPad and when I launched the Video App, as it loaded, I noticed the white text before the thumnails loaded, covering the text with the cover art. Very odd. These are iTunes cover art, so something is definitely wrong.
    The movies I transferred that I created in iMovie, do show the title since the thumnails/cover art are much more of a square and then you can see it.

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPad.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • My iPhone 5 native weather app will not update locally

    I have an iPhone 5 my local weather will not update via the default native weather app!!! Now If I enable wi-fi it will update via my home network. However, once I turn off wi-fi it will not update my local weather BUT GUESS WHAT CUPERTINO WILL UPDATE EVERY TIME!!!
    Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi PLEASE!!!!

    Location Services enabled in general, and in particular for the Weather app? Mine needed that in order to discover where I live, but having done that and establishing said location as its home, will update thru whatever it finds up, Wi-Fi or cellular.
    However and after participating in several other threads regarding Weather, it would seem that different buyers get a different Weather app instead of a single standard one, maybe depending upon carrier whim. Mine's main screen looks like this:

  • TS3274 Video app will not play videos just a black screen

    I have downloaded videos on my iPad. I press the video app and all I get is a black screen. I have turned off plus restarted the iPad STILL I get nothing. What welsh is there to do? Thanks

    I have been having this same problem since the update. Are you running No-Script by chance? That is what was causing me an issue with embedded videos like on Vevo on Youtube, or youtube videos on news sites which would give me "An error has occured" message. Even if I allowed all scripts on the page, or even globally, the video would always return that error. By disabling NoScript, I was able to watch videos again on all of the sites I was having a problem with.
    I tested this on another computer with Firefox 3.5. Videos worked fine as long as NoScript was allowing their host (youtube.com, etc) Seems like there is some sort of issue with NoScript and Firefox 3.6.15.

  • My "Videos" app will not open on my iPhone 4S.

    Whenever I click on the app, my screen goes white like it's about to load, but then it jumps right back to the home screen. I've looked at a few different solutions to this problem, but none of them seemed to work. I've restarted my phone and I've turned it off and back on. One solution that I saw numerous times was to download another app from the App Store, but that didn't work either. I would just remove the app in iTunes and sync it again, but you can't remove the Videos app. Any ideas on how to fix this problem?

    Then the next step would be to restore your phone.  My advice is that prior to restoring you import your photos and videos to your computer and back up your contacts (by syncing them with iCloud or to a supported program on your computer using iTunes) as a number of users report losing these when restoring their device.

  • Video app: how to display audio language?

    Using Apple's native video app to watch movies on my iPad, I wonder why (if you have a movie with multiple audio tracks) those languages aren't displayed. Say you have a movie with english and french audio track. Now, if you want to chose or change the audio, instead of displaying 'English' and 'French' you only get 'Stereo' and ...'Stereo'.
    I remember in former iOS versions, the languages were displayed.
    Note: Movies with subtitles, you see the actual subtitle language. To turn subtitles on or off for a movie with english subs, you get 'Off' and 'English' !

    Many thanks for your quick and helpful suggestions, but they didn't quite solve my issue.  Bear with me, I'm an FCP7 expert considering making a leap to the dark side.  So far, all looks great in Premiere CC except this one sticking point -- displaying audio and video in separate windows for logging.  Why is that so difficult? 
    I tried the "Gang Source and Program" technique, which did open  audio in source and video in program, but one of the two playback windows freezes, e.g. if the cursor is in audio (source) the video (in program) is stuck in pause.  I reduced playback quality and size to minimum values, and have a powerful macpro with 12 cores and 24G of ram.  IF there is some setting I'm not using to make both windows play, that would solve my problem.
    I don't want to just make the edits in timeline because I would like to create subclips to use and re-use in the future.  Any resulting jump-cuts will be covered with cutaways.
    It is handy to be able to see both the audio waveform and the video while editing dialogue -- very easy to do in FCP.

  • Video app fails to display thumbnails

    I have an iPod touch 4g running ios 6.1, I was able to see thumbnails to the left of my videos in the Videos app. Recently however, my iPod is not displaying thumbnails for videos anymore. I am able to see it with iTunes. I just open "Get info" and open the summary tab, but the thumbnail disappears after I sync the video with my iPod and view "Get info" from the device tab. Any suggestions? I should mention I would prefer a solution that does not involve restoring my iPod. Thank you. :)

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    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  or delete the videos and resync them
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             

  • Video app does not report disk usage after upgrade to iOS7

    Ever since upgrading to iOS7, the Videos app reports “No Data” under General->Usage, even though I have a number of movies and TV Shows downloaded from iTunes.  Downloading additional content or deleting all downloaded content and re-downloading does not affect the result - it still reports “No Data”.  I have confirmed that these videos are downloaded to the device and not on the cloud, and remain accessible will all cellular and wi-fi connectivity disabled.  This behavior occurs on both my iPad Air (currently on iOS 7.0.4) and my previous iPad 3 (Retina).
    What can I do to correct this issue and have iOS correctly report video usage?

    I'm having exactly the same issue and I'm yet to discover a solution. The vast majority of my 64GB iPad Air is compromised of video content (HD movies) but the Usage section of Settings shows 'No Data'. Very weird. Would love a fix for this as it's kinda hard to manage my data usage when I'm not seeing all the facts!
