Text video messages dont play

Droid X shipped with 2.2, when receiving a text video message, the sound plays but only a "broken" icon appears on the screen, no video. Anyone had this problem? Sorry if already posted!

Try Saving file before playing it and see what happens...
1. Go to Text Messages view, threader veiw that shows the pic preview when its not opened.
2. Press and hold on Pic
3. Select Save from the list\
4. Now the pic should be saved in SD/Messages folder
Let me know if this works for you, I just sent myself one to double check..
Check file type by browsing to SD/Messages folder and you should see video file name and at the end it will show file type... Mp4, avi, mpeg.....

No Audio when Video Message is played back - why?

After I record a Video Message to send, there's no Audio when Video Message is played back - why?

Audio and video files dont play on wiki only a qicktime icon with a question mark appears

I have many users on my server who upload podcasts, but the problem is that the audio file they upload doesnt always play. Only a quicktime icon with a question mark appears. What is also very strange is when you refresh the page usually the file will play and it will work on a Mac but then sometimes not on a PC, and the files always play without a problem on iPads and iPhones.
The icon looks something like this. PLEASE HELP!

The same thing happened to me last night, except for with video. Playing videos used to work fine on all operating systems. Now it will work on Windows and iPhone/iPad but only some videos work on my Macs. After searching for hours here is what I found:
1. Go to Safari preferences, Security Tab and uncheck "Enable Plug-ins". When I tried to play video after doing this the Quicktime question mark went away but the video didn't play, it just turned into background color and I can't even right click on it.
2. Run Safari in 32-bit mode. Locate the Safari file in your Applications folder. Right click it and click Get Info. Check the "Run in 32-bit Mode" box. Restart safari. This did nothing for me.
3. Try a different web browser. I tried Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Opera. They all do the same thing.
4. As for codecs, I updated then reinstalled Flash, DivX and Flip4Mac. Still doesn't work on Macs.
I know it's not a problem with the server because it works on Windows and mobile devices. Another weird thing is certain .mp4 videos work fine but some won't. I re-uploaded them and made sure the video worked on the server and the file is fine. All regular websites work fine: Youtube, Apple, etc.
My only guess, since this suddenly happened on all my Macs, is that there was some update that caused this. All help is appreciated.

Video podcasts dont play in itunes 7.0.2

i have recently upgraded my itunes to version 7.0.2. and since then none of the video podcasts i subscribe to can be played.
itunes downloads the podcast but does not store or play it and a little grey exclamation mark tells me that an error occured while adding the episode to itunes (i am translating the error message, so the phrasing might not be spot on) and that the file may be damaged or that itunes cannot play this type of file.
but that also happens with episodes i had watched on the very same computer in the old itunes.
it really drives me mad, since podcasts are pretty much the only thing i have time to watch at the moment.
any solutions?

im having the same problem... all you can see is orange, blue, etc. outlines rite? cause thats what i have...
only time will tell though, unfortunatly

Online video has stopped playing

Hi All
Last night out of the blue online video has stopped playing in Safari. From example a YouTube video imbedded in Facebook just is blank also in YouTube itself the site loads but the videos just dont play.
Any ideas?
I am running Lion OS X version 10.7.1 on a MacBook Pro 2.66Ghz Intel i7, using Safari 5.1

Since YouTube / Facebook require Flash, try updating the Flash plugin.

PIX-FLIX Text sent to phone, but actual video message does not appear in messaging area online.

I received a text message saying I received a Flix message. However I must access it by going online to vzwpix.com. So I went online right after and the website said it was down for maintenance. So I checked back a few hours later. I logged in. Went to Send Picture and Video Message. Then went to the Messaging Tab. However there was no message.
A few things come to mind why I might not have received my message. Since the person who sent the message had sent it during the time when the website was down, the message never went through?!
Another thing I noticed. When in my Picture & Video Messaging I see the Folders "Drafts" and "Sent Messages" however when I put my cursor over the "?" next to Folders it mentions a "Received Messages" folder should be included. However under the actual Folders the "Received Messages" folder does not exist. So maybe the message I was sent never had a default folder to be sent to?!
My phone was notified I was sent a message. I followed the directions. No message appears where it should be. Please help!
On a side note. I tried going to the "Contact Us" link at the top right of the page to get help. However, everytime I click it, refresh, etc. I get sent to the page "http://www.verizonwireless.com/backbutton.html". This is obviously a broken link.
Frusterated Customer seeking help ... Thanks in advance for help on this issue.

Still no answer to the question. Is this bogus or what?! I get a message from my Daughter-in-Law asking if I got my Mothers' Day song my grandkids sent this morning. No, I get this Flix message at this website text. Here I am now, registering and changing passwords I've never had to this 'forum' with no help and now Flix message. I''ve ignored these messages that I have received before now because of the drama. This time I follow through because of Grandkids for this.
I'm so frustrated that I've wasted so much of my time for naught. What do I tell the grandbabies? How can we avoid this from happening in the future? Was their song too long to send as picture/video message directly to my phone?
Why are their no answers anywhere? You've got to be kidding me.
Sore customer!

How i can increase the volume when i playing a video? dont showing the volume control in the player..

how i can increase the volume when i playing a video? dont showing the volume control in the video player..

Are you sure you increased the caller volume? This is only adjustable while in conversation. So, while you are calling you'll see a few icons on your screen and one of them is to adjust your caller volume.

Hey dylanburks12,
It sounds like you are seeing issues when attempting to sync videos to your iPod. I have an article that will help explain some possible situations regarding this issue:

I have a gmail account and someone sent me a video. How can I play the video message on my ipad?

I'm new to ipad. I received a video message in gmail. How can I play it on my ipad?

Leslie-
The iPad can not play some video formats such as WMV or FLV. Those would need to be converted on your computer to something the iPad can play, like M4V or MP4.
You might ask the person who sent the message to you to do the conversion and send it again.

Video messaging will not play

my video messaging shows the picture but when i go to play it, the video says unable to play video message try again later. why? what can i do?

Maybe somebody else has more specifically related experience, but I recommend:
1. reporting problem to Adobe (or adding +1 to existing report), and providing sample if asked for it.
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/products/photoshop_family_photoshop_lightro om
2. In the mean time, if you can't find other resolution: transcode video to something Lr likes, OR open in player which works, thus bypassing Lr.
Let me/us know if you need help with #2.

3120 classic won't play received video messages

Hi,
Please help!
I can capture video, play video that I have captured, and succesfully send video to others that I have captured on my nokia 3120 classic (all 3gp file format), but when I receive a video message captured and sent to me (also 3gp, or mov file format, including from other nokia phones) and open it, it plays/automatically opens as .gif file format - plays as an animated gif instead of video.
I thought it was senders phone problem but realised it was my phone when person next to me received and played same file at same time on their nokia (cheaper model!) no problem.
Have tried downloading latest phone software, checked MMS settings with provider, tried nokia online support, etc... no change.
Does anyone know if this phone supports receiving any movie file formats????

I have the same problem.
If I send a 3gp. file to me, I can read it.
But if someone sends a 3gp. file to me, I can't. (but the file can be read if I take it with bluetooth).

Harrsment calls from VIDEO RECEIVED! PLAY MESSAGE ...

no matter how many times i decline and block this caller contiues to calls at all hours of the day. i have never answered the call. Missed call from VIDEO RECEIVED! PLAY MESSAGE AT VIDMS.COM.

if you block a certain user, that user should not be able to contact you again in any way. I think in your case, those scammers/spammers might be using another Skype account with the same or similar display name. I think you can consider adjusting your privacy settings to allow calls from people in your contact list only to avoid receiving such unwanted calls again.
IF YOU FOUND OUR POST USEFUL THEN PLEASE GIVE "KUDOS". IF IT HELPED TO FIX YOUR ISSUE PLEASE MARK IT AS A "SOLUTION" TO HELP OTHERS. THANKS!

When I purchased ringtones for my texts and two of them dont play when someone texts me,but plays when they call

Hi Kel134,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are having microphone issues on your iPhone when you place a call to someone and they cannot hear you unless you activate the speaker function. In this situation I would recommend the steps in the following article to help isolate and resolve the situation.
iPhone: Microphone issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
Resolve the issue
Follow these steps, testing after each.
Make sure nothing is plugged in to the jack connector.
Make sure nothing is blocking any of the microphones (refer to the pictures below to find your device's microphones). Check for these:
Dirt or debris
A screen protector or case
When you're holding your phone next to your ear, make sure you don't block the microphone with your fingers or shoulder and make sure to speak into the microphone
Turn the iPhone off and then on.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
If necessary, find general iPhone hardware troubleshooting suggestions.
For further assistance, contact Apple Support.
I hope this helps,
-Joe

Why won't video messages from an iphone 4 play properly on my iPhone 4

When I receive a video message from a 4s phone the video is very distorted and has no sound. I have an iPhone 4. I receive all other videos okay.

When I was searching for people that had the same problem as me, I found one that said to go on amazon and by a new charger flex. I got the new charger flex and my iPhone charges again. It is not that expensive and my iPhone charges now

HI Evts,
There are quite a few users affected by this and after some investigation in other threads there were two solutions found:
# If you are in India, there were a number of DNS names that were blocked.
# Please try a new profile [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]
