I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1. Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

I have an iPhone 4S and a 2012 Honda CRV . The streaming BT music is fine but now suddenly it stopped displaying song info on the screen. It worked for about 10 days and then stopped. Any thoughts?

I think that we all know the answer to this one.
Unfortunatley the device is concidered damaged by water. Apple can do an out of warranty repair which would cost $199. Generally they would just replace the device in this case for the $199.
The alternative is to Purchase a new device.

Ipod recognized by computer for only a few seconds?!

My ipod froze up while it was plugged into the computer. I unplugged it and reset it, but now it keeps showing a folder or a battery w/ an exclamation mark when i plug it into the AC adapter. When I plug it into the computer, it'll show the same icons, but then will be recognized by the computer for only a few seconds flashing the "do not disconnect" screen. Is there any way I can fix my ipod? I've tried to update the software on it, but that doesn't work since the computer only recognizes the ipod for only a few seconds. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Try the instructions in this article; if disk use isn't enabled for the iPod, it will disappear from the computer after the synchronization process is complete.

What can I do to remedy this? Please help!!!

If you haven't tried it yet, I'd eliminate memory issues first. Close all of the apps with the double tap on the home button method

I'm just downloaded the creative cloud installer. Double click on the install file, it starts the installation and after only a few seconds it stops and nothing happens. What is going on?

why does the cloud installer quit after only a few seconds of install?

I am having the same problem. Sorry I don't know an answer but would love help too.
I'm on a Mac - OSX10.9.3
Downloaded installer which opened to the point that I had the icon in my toolbar but it seemed to get stuck at that point - about 7 hours of scrolling "update cycle" (swirly thing in middle of the empty CC window) but no App tab or other tabs - just a white rectangle with scrolling.
So I tried un-installing, deleted all files, downloaded again but now I get the same as Scrapnick - installer launches with task bar at "Initializing Installer" which lasts only about 2 seconds, then flicks to "Dowloading Creative Cloud desktop" at which point the task bar & the installer window close.
I hope someone can help us with this...

IPhoto: No pictures only broken-line/square boxes where pictures should be. Scanning with the bar slide the pics appear for one or two seconds then are gone.

Grandson Son sabataged my IPhotos! Can't get pics to appear. Only broken-line/square boxes where the pictures should be. Scrolling with side bar brings up pics for 1 or 2 seconds then they are gone again. HELP! Please....

Restore from your back up is the most obvious way forward.
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to rebuild the thumbnails. It can take 3 or 4 goes for this to work

IPod Classic not recognized by iTunes, but iPod Touch is recognized

I have both an iPod Classic and an iPod Touch. iTunes on my Windows XP computer will recognize the iPod Touch, but it will not recognize the iPod Classic. I went through the first series of tests recommended at the Apple site, but I stopped when it said uninstall iTunes, and further suggested major stuff with the Classic. The whole uninstall/restore process instructions did not assure me that I wouldn't lose some music or my playlist. It doesn't seem like it should be this hard just to get iTunes to recognize a device.

If you have iTunes 11 on the computer and are using the same cable that works with the iPhone then:
- 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.
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Try on another computer
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware preoblem

Cartoons play a few seconds then stops, then starts, then stops, just started doing this

My grandson likes to watch a cartoon with me in the evening, suddenly when I bring them up now they start to play, then stops, then starts, this just started happening, my grandson would appreciate any help resolving this. Thanks

Check to make sure your video is loading.
The red indicates what has already played and the white indicated the portion of the video that is loaded but unplayed. If you have no white bar and the movie plays and then stops it is because your video is having trouble loading in which case you wil want to select a lower quality video by clicking on the gear icon.
YouTube uses a program called Adobe Flash player to play the cartoons. If your seeing the white bar in front of your video, the first thing I would try would be to remove the Adobe Flash software and reinstall the latsest version. Allow me to explain how to do this:
Step 1: Download the Adobe Flash uninstaller from here, for help running the uninstaller Adobe has good directions on their website which you can view here.
Step 2: Once you receive the notice that Adobe Flash player has been successfully removed, download the latest version of Adobe Flash Player here. If you need help running this installer Adobe again has good insturctions here.
Once finished, go back to the YouTube cartoon you are having trouble with and let us know if your still having any issues.

Why does my song play for only a few seconds?

I purchased & downloaded an entire album from itunes but the first song, the title track, will only play for a few seconds before skipping to the next song. It's a 3min long tune but all I get is 3-4 seconds of play. How can I ensure that I get the entire track that I paid for?

If you can do a second download in your country delete the track completely from your iTunes library, then re-download.

My w-fi connection keeps shutting down and turning back on, every few seconds. I don't know what the issue could be? Any suggestions?

The past few days my wi-fi on my iPad has been shutting off and turning back on. This has not been the case with any other Apple product I own. I tried resetting the wi-fi settings already and it didn't work. Does any have any suggestions?

Well, i kinda follow your advice... but I went to the repair guy first. I asked him what did he repaired on my compter : he told me he did all the tests and follow the protocol, and that my computer was fine. Nothing was wrong with it. Yeah, right.
So I called back Apple. That was such a waste of time ! They told me to send it in repair AGAIN. I told them that the only repair center in my town cannot find the problem. They told me to go and make it repair at another center, in another town. The nearest is one hour away. I don't have a car. I don't have time. How am I supposed to get there ? "find a friend with a car", she replied.
The girl was realy stupid. Am i gonna waste time going twice to a repair center 1 hour away from home ? Come on... She refused to send me a box to ship it to them for repair. She just kept on telling me i need to get it repair, again and again. She was a waste of time. She wanted me to go back to the repair center that cannot find the problem or pay like 200 $ to get on a bus with my computer and waste 2 days on the road.
I send it back to the repair center in my town this morning. And tomorrow, I'll just go to FutureShop and buy myself the cheapest PC i can find, because i NEED a computer for all my exams and my presentations. And when i'll get my macbook back, i'll juste leave it running on the self and hope it will fail again as soon as possible so I can recall them and listen to them tell me to send it back again in repair... and waste again, more and more time on a computer that never worked good.
This is realy getting ridiculous... They realy don't care at all. They just want me to shut up and get used to it... I just can't wait to see what the repair guy will tell me...

I have an Iphone 4 from a friend. It was never updated with him and now I am trying update to latest software version. It is currently in 4.3.2 and it updates till the last few seconds and then a message, with no error number, states that the internet connection had time out during update. I am using my PC and have tried unsuccessfully for a week. I have tried to restore setting on phone first before plugging in to PC and updating software through Itunes? I took it to my mobile phone outlet and they couldn't help? Is there another way?

My iPod Classic is seen by Windows but not by iTunes. I have reset it, gone to disk mode and it won't show up in iTunes. There appears to be music on it in a file called MUSICSAVE. How can I get this to work with iTunes again?

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.
