TS2972 Homesharing won't let me play consecutive videos. Help?

I have seen a few other users post issues similar (and identical) to mine but have yet to find any solutions to this problem. I have the 3rd gen Apple TV and am unable to play consecutive videos/movies. When my video ends I am brought back to the video menu, but when I select the next episode to play I get the loading screen and... nothing happens. In order for the video to play I need to get up, go to my laptop, and disconnect/reconnect Homesharing in order for it to play. If I don't do this, I stay on the loading screen until I shut it off or go back to the main menu (but if I select another video it will still not play). This is getting extremely annoying and I am quite disatisfied with my Apple TV so far.
I have the latest itunes installed on my laptop and the most recent firmware for my Apple TV.
Any suggestions? Or if this has been addressed and I missed it can someone please point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Laptop won't let me play any video or change the brightness of the screen at all.

I got this new Laptop a few months ago and it has just recently started to play up slightly and not let me change my brightness settings at all and now it won't let me play any videos.

I got a solution
First check out your performance settings and if u dont know where to find it just right click on my computer and enter to propreties then click on performance and tools, then if the gamming and desktop aero system are 1.0 then you have three solutions.
1) Install a new windows
2) check out your computer driver and install tge latest version
3) or simply you can download DRIVER PAC SOLUTION and install it then after installation is done you might wanna restart the system and check performance again then it should desplay NEW HARDWARE DETECT REFRESH NOW then click on refreah and the rating is gonna go up from1.0.to higher than 4.0.

I bought a movie on iTunes and it shows up in my purchases but it won't let me play it. Help?

I bought Silver Linings Playbook for 12.99 in SD a little while ago. I have been unable to watch it because while it shows up in my purchases it will not let me click play, or any other options for that matter. It also shows up in my Cloud but cannot be played on any of my other devices. Any help would be appreciated!

Hello Karli26
If you have not done so already, delete the movie from your iTunes library and then try to download it again to see if it plays again. If that does not resolve the issue, then report it to the iTunes Store.

Firefox won't let me play any videos (youtube, hulu, or otherwise)

Yesterday Firefox stopped loading videos. At first I thought I had been blocked by google because I used download helper to rip audio from a bunch of videos (lectures, not illegal downloads). But then I noticed Hulu wouldn't load and even facebook's video player wasn't working. I tried viewing videos on chrome and it worked fine.
I cleared the cache on firefox, ensured I had the latest version of flash and firefox, but that didn't help.
Eventually I uninstalled firefox and reinstalled it and that seemed to help, but then this morning I started getting the same error again.
Any ideas?

IE and Google Chrome come with their own versions of the flash plugin, but Firefox uses a different version.
You can also try steps these for issues with the current Flash plugin:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in Flash 11.3 and later
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Won't let me play my Videos (TV Shows) when the screen is locked...

So, like above says... Ever since I upgraded my Iphones software to 4.2.1 I can't start a TV show video and then exit/lock the screen and use my headphones to start it up again and basically just listen to the video and not watch it. I am wondering if this is becasue of the software update or if it is a glitch in my phone?? It's quite annoying because I don't like having the screen unlocked if I am not actually watching the video.
Please Help!

IMovie won't let me export my video HELP PLEASE QUICK

So I have the iPad 3, 64gb Wifi + Cellular and I have iMovie on my iPad. So I've made a 30 second video, with no music and I clicked to export it on my camera roll and it's said "An Error Occurred During Export" or something along the lines,and so I tried doing that with the other options, Facebook, Vimeo, YouTube and all said they could not export. All the footage was taken on my iPad and its not working. I then downloaded another app and it did the same thing. I'm so frustrated. Yes I have gone through my privacy settings and turned on iMovie it was already on. Yes I have done everything everyone else has done, but this is not working. can someone please help me !!!!.

Hello RamoziummOxide,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. I would also be concerned if I could not export my project I made in iMovie. You have done several good troubleshooting steps. At this point, I would troubleshoot the iMovie app in general:
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
There are a couple of things to keep in mind regarding that article. Step 4 guides in you restarting the application, but I would quit any open application at that point. Also step 6 states to reinstall the application, but before you do that, you will want to backup the content of iMovie to iTunes before you do that because your movie will be deleted if you delete the application. I would skip this step if you are not able to export to iTunes. You can find steps to export your movie to iTunes here:

I hope this helps! I know how much time and work goes into iMovie projects.

I am playing card Yahoo games in my computer. Just recently it won't let me play as it hangs up when uploading the game. How can I fix it? Kinda frustrating.

I am playing card games at Yahoo in my iMac OS X version 10.6.8. Just recently it won't let me play anymore as it won't upload. Kinda frustrating. How can I fix it. The only thing that I know I have done is did an update on my computer.

You have no other option other than to activate that phone with a SIM card. The SIM doesn't need to be an active SIM, however, so any old deactivated SIM will do.

My Game Center won't work on my iPod touch 2nd Gen. It let me sign up but it won't load any of my games and won't let me play with my friends. I don't know why? Any help?

My ipod touch 2nd Gen let me sign up to game center but it won't load any of my games and won't let me play with my friend. I don't know if it's like this because it is old and slow, or what. Please help me figure this out. Thank You.

Try:
- Sign out of Game Center and sign back in
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Not all apps support airplay.
If NBC does not support it, there is nothing to fix.

My computer is authorized but won't let me play movies from external drive

Before the most recent update, I was backing up my movies and music to an external drive to save room on my hard drive. I would then play those movies in QT from the external drive. I didn't import into iTunes bc I wanted to save room. Now, however, it won't let me play those movies unless I import into iTunes. I get a please authorize field. I authorize and it says that this computer is already authorized but it still won't play the movie.

SO FAR I THINK IT IS "GENIUS" (IT'S A DUNCE!!!!)
TURN OFF GENIUS THE REBOOT iTUNES...
SO FAR THIS HAS WORKED FOR ME!

TS1389 I tried all these steps and iTunes still won't let me play songs I paid for... Every time I authorize, it repeats that it's already authorized, but won't play because it's not authorized ... Catch 22

Delete and redownload them if doing so is free in your country.

All content that you download from iTunes is tied to the account that downloaded it, and it can't be transferred to or merged with another account - so you will need to authorise that old account on that computer if you want to use its content.
If you still have access to the email accoun then you can try getting the password reset via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password
