1. Close all inactive apps in the Task Bar. Double-click the Home button and hold apps down for a second or two. Tap the minus sign to close app.
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo.

Safari will no longer play apple tutorials on the web

I've only had my mac for a couple of days and somehow safari will no longer play apple tutorials. If I click on one, it just loads and loads but never plays. Firefox doesn't work either. Somehow this feels quicktime related. My system is brand new. I have a quicktime plugin that has a version 7.6.3. Any help would be appreciated (youtube works fine).
Richard

Glad it's working for you. As for the PC to Mac basics... I just tried and it's working. Try again.
Try here also. Apple Pro Tips There are well over 100 videos there to watch.
Empty your cache more often!
And, launch iTunes. Select ITunes Store on the left side of the window then in the Search field top right type in: Apple Quick Tips
You can not only watch those but download them as well.
Trashing .plist application files is a great trouble shooting idea! I clean forgot.

Videos (TV shows and music) Will No Longer Play

My Ipod Video was working great--playing TV shows and videos. Suddenly it no longer plays the TV Shows or music videos. Please help me. Why did it just quit playing them? Can someone tell me what to do to get them going again? When I plug my Ipod into the computer, I can play the videos from the Ipod on the computer in the small viewer on the left of the Itunes screen. Thanks

I am experiencing the same problem

My iPod touch will not open Facebook app and safari will not open Facebook either??

Please help, Facebook refuses to work on my I touch, just says Internet connection not working, but everything else works, but when I try to connect to Facebook via safari will not work either, says not connected to server??

Does it work with another network?
Has it worked with this network before?
Maybe the network is blocking FB.

Ipad will no longer play any videos on any site. Switch to photon and it plays. These are not flash vids!

On safari I have a long list of blogs of news that I have viewed daily for years. About to weeks ago. These apparent you tube embeds now say this video cannot be viewed. Since these sites haven't changed all at once I downloaded photon and they all play. Yes I know photon has a flash player but I don't have to activate it it just plays. Further if I track to you tube with the YouTube app the same video will play. All of these sites could not have switched to flash at the same time. Any ideas?

Where are watching these videos? Through Safari, or on the You Tube app that was pre-installed on your iPad from day one? If the later and you all of the sudden can't watch previously viewable video, I'd recommend you reboot your iPad. Press and hold the power buttons at the same time for at least 10 seconds (keep holding past the swipe to shut down bar) until the Apple logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
If you could view these through You Tube via Safari, go into settings > safari > clear cookes > clear cache
Then try again........

Installed Flip4Mac Update 3.0 - Safari will no longer open any video file.

Yesterday, I updated Flip4Mac and it installed version 3. Now when I can no longer open (manually) any video file from within Safari. Video's are not highlighted in the open dialog anymore.

Try Flip4Mac FAQ's here.

I have a 2nd gen ipod touch. Recently I updated the OS from original second gen to the latest available which is software 4.2.1. Since doing this the ipod will no longer play music, videos, or stream online content. Any ideas how to fix it please?

I have tried restoring factory settings and loading the preferences I saved before updating the OS.
Neither of these methods have any effect.
The ipod also seemingly prevents you from restarting the ipod using the earlier OS software when resorting from recovery mode.
Any other ideas?
Cheers
Dan

- Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
- When restoring to factory defaults/new iPod fails to resolve a problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment a the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

ITunes will no longer play nor add to the library any mp3 files which I have created by conversion from a wav file.

I am running iTunes 10 on XP Pro and it will no longer play those mp3 files which I have created by conversion from wav files. I tried to delete some from the library and then re-add them but iTunes will not add them back to the library.
Can anyone help solve this, please?

Back up your purchased music before you upgrade, I've read at least 5 cases where purchased music has just gone.....missing.
That is not supposed to happen, didn't happen to me or thousnds of other iTunes users, but you don't want to be the 6th person, do you?
There are two things to try before you upgrade:

IPod-Video-80Gig No longer plays movies, videos, TV shows (older shows)

What gives, only 6 months ago the videos played just fine...then I begin having a host of problems (started with the death of the battery at the ripe old age of 8 months). This $400 video iPod had played the few movies and TV shows I purchased...and it will play the audio of them...but will no longer play the video portion. I've tried the resetting (holding the MENU plus CENTER buttons at same time). No go still. I haven't played the movies/videos in a while; but now I'm going on a roadtrip and wanted to take them with me to watch on the plane. So sad. Any help anyone can pass along would be rightly appreciated!

OMI...my daughter had told me she was "fiddling" with the settings and wouldn't you know, she changed the VIDEO SETTINGS "TV Out from Off to On." Word to people with kids...tell them to step away from the iPod.

IPad2 update to iOS6 will no longer play UTube: All my favourites that were previously viewed and saved with my iPad2 will no longer play. They can't be played via Safari either SOLUTION PLEASE (buy iPad3 which solves the issue isn't an option)

IPad2 has been updated to iOS6 and will no longer play UTube favourites. These are favourites that have been previously viewed on iPad2 therefore I know the device is capable of playing them. This upgrade is no longer allowing me to use the device for the reason I bought it.
Apple, I'm feeling as though I've been conned.
My mates iPad3 on iOS6 plays all the stuff my 2 will no longer play.
UTube via safari won't play them, all Apps I've tried have the same problem, a red band stating this video can't be played on your device OR flash player required. Has anyone got a solution???? Please don't write stating you have the same problem, I just want solutions. Thanks

Safari will no longer open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files.

Safari will no longer open. It just goes back to my desktop. When I right click on the safari icon in my dashboard it says it is open. I was using firefox until I could find a fix for safari. I made the mistake of changing my default search to firebox later for convenience and now I can't open my system preference or many safari or apple linked files. Some of my emails from trusted sites won't open and does the same thing.
I upgraded my original system from 10.4.11 to I believe 10.6. something about a year or so ago. I thought about re installing my safari app but when I go to open anything connected to safari my screen goes back to the desktop. I cant open any files that I have on my desktop that I set up through safari, like my banking program. Prior to changing system preference to safari default I was able to open those files and now I can't get into change it back. Can you guide me through this?
Thanks,
Betty

Try running the 10.6.8 combo update.
10.6.8 Combo Updater
System Preferences or Safari Preferences?
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

A movie I bought a while ago will no longer play, instead it just shows a black screen and no audio. All of the other movies in my library play fine. Any ideas as to whats going on or how to fix it? Thanks for any help.

Hi 22chill,
I recommend that we delete and re-download the movie from your purchase history:

I haven't changed any settings regarding region codes

You may have run discs from different regions,these would be commercial DVDs. If so most DVD players need to be told what region the disc is from. Have you done this by chance, if you are not sure look at the region numbers listed on the commerical DVDs you have and see if some use different numbers.

My iPad will not play sounds on certain applications. ie: if I click on a video from FB sound will not play. If I go to YouTube and play the same video sound will play. Also certain games will no longer play sounds. They always played sounds but now won't

My iPad will not play sounds on certain applications. ie: if I click on a video from FB sound will not play. If I go to YouTube and play the same video sound will play. Also certain games will no longer play sounds. They always played sounds but now won't now. I just went to my churches web site to watch live service and again no sound. I grabbed my dads iPad and the sound works fine.

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

My first gen. iPad exits out of apps and safari at random times when I am trying to use them. So I basically can't do anything on it. Is there some way I can fix this?

Crashing apps. What do I do to fix it?
My first gen. iPad exits out of apps and safari at random times when I am trying to use them. So I basically can't do anything on it. Is there some way I can fix this?

I have the same problem. Yahoo Sportacular aborts every time I try to open it. It attempts to load and then the device goes right back to the home screen. The problem started April 26 after I switched leagues from NHL to NBA. Closing all apps and Restarting doesn't solve solve the problem.
All other apps on the iPad work fine. IPad2, OS6.
Any other suggestions? I suppose I could delete the app from the iPad and try re-installing it

Some apps and safari will no longer play HTML video!
