TS2972 why can't I play all my music videos on my ipad when sharing the library from my p.c

I can play some of the newer music videos purchased through itunes but not any of the older ones.I can see them in the shared library but when I try to play them it just says 'cannot open'

Authorize your MBP in iTunes with the Apple ID used to purchase the recovered music.

  • Why wont my iphone play all my music

    Why wont my Iphone play all of the music i have saved on it from itunes

    If you are using files that play on your iPhone when synced with iTunes these files should play via your website. The iPhone can play these formats.
    H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file format
    The most certain way of producing files in the correct format is to use either iMovie08 or Quicktime Pro and export in iPhone format.

  • TS2972 Why can you only share photos to Apple TV and not iPad?

    This seems like a development oversight on Apple's part. All I want to do is view my iPhoto library on my iPad using Home Sharing, the same way someone with Apple TV can view their photo library on their TV. When will this functionality be coming?

    This is a user forum, no one here can speak to any updates. You can currently have your Photo stream for shots you want to appear on all devices.

  • Why can't I use Snapfish anymore with iPhoto 08? I cannot see the library.

    I recently upgraded to iPhoto (iLife 08) now when I try to upload pics to snapfish it cannot see the folder. I know it is there cause I see it in Finder. It shows all other folders but the iPhoto folder is invisible. Does anyone know a setting or a way that I can utilize photo developing other than the proprietary ones for Apple?
    Please help. I feel like I've been swindled. (Seems Like something Microsoft would do)

    Jeff
    You haven't been swindled, no one is forcing you to do anything.
    With iPhoto 7 (iLife 08) the old iPhoto Library Folder is now a Unix Style Package File. The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves.
    It has never been the correct procedure to root through the iPhoto Library Folder - in fact on every version the documentation has expressly stated that you should never do so.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    All of these are faster and safer than rooting around in the iPhoto Library Folder
    You might also check if Snapfish have updated their plug-in for iPhoto yet? If Snapfish haven't bothered to update their plug-in, you might want to check out many of the other services that have. Or are supported by an app like PictureSync. So, nothing proprietary there.

  • Why can't I play Safari and Chrome videos in the background anymore?

    Before iOS 6, I was able to play videos on Safari and Google Chrome while the app is running in the background. I really enjoyed playing music from YouTube videos in the background whilst multitasking on other things. How come I can't do this anymore? Is it a copyright/compatibility issue or something? When I play a video, and pull up the app switcher to play the music, it has the app there, but when I press Play it doesn't do anything.

    I did more research and found that after the 4.2.2 update if you leave the @me.com or @mac.com OFF of your "add mobileme account when logging onto ATV that the error message: cannot load content, try again later goes away and allows your Gallery movies to play.  Hope this helps.

  • Why can't I see ALL my music that's on my iphone in itunes?  I can only see things I recently added.

    I have hundreds of songs in my phone but I can only see a small fraction of what's on my phone when it's plugged into my computer and I'm looking in itunes.   It looks like all it's showing are things that I added recently.
    How do I fix this?

    Hello lintriago,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Where are you looking that you aren’t seeing your music? When you have your device plugged in and selected in iTunes, a sidebar shows up. In this sidebar, “On My Device” includes all of the content types that are currently synced to your device. If you click on Music, do you see the expected amount of content?
    For more information on syncing, check out this resource:

  • Why can't I sync all my music on my iphone

    Help, I've recently bought an iphone and plugged it into my Vaio to download all the music from my itunes library which I set up for my ipod, however when I syn entire library it will only syn half the albums, all software is up to date.  Why?

    Sorry diesel vdub, I have never been on a site like this before and an relatively techno illiterate, however I have no sync errors and have downloaded all the latest updates.  I have a 16gb ipod and have only got 99 albums which totals 7gb with no photos, apps or other, so in theory there is plenty of space, when I click on the ipod app on the phone it only shows me the albums listed from G in the alphabet to Z.  A to F are missing?  Hope this helps. Thx

  • How do I stop getting all songs put on two I-Pods when sharing the same library?

    I am trying to figure out how to stop my I-Pod from syncing everything in the I-Tunes. We have a Music Library that other I-Pods in the house operate on as well. I want to stop getting the music they purcased when I plug my I-pod into the computer and go on I-Tunes. Can somebosy please help me?

    It will only sync what you select to sync.
    If you do not want it on your device, then do not select it to sync.
    I use playlists and sync only the playlists I choose to my device.  My wife does the same.

  • Why can't i hear all my downloaded songs?

    Why can't i hear all my downloaded songs?

    David is correct. The announcement was that all new music for sale would be non-DRM. There was no guarantee that everything would be upgradable.
    Another possibility is that the iTunes Plus version is there, but the Store did not correctly match it with the old DRM tracks that you bought. If you see the new one in the Store, contact Customer Service.

  • HT204382 Why can't I play a .MOV movie on my apple (MacBook Pro)?

    My parents have been sending me little .MOV movies via email. But I can't play them on my MacBook Pro. I am however able to play them on my iPhone.
    Why can't I play it on my computer?
    This is the error msg I get: The document “IMG_0259.MOV” could not be opened. The movie is not in a format that QuickTime Player understands. You may need to install additional software to open this type of file.
    Many thanks,
    Mascha

    I have the same problem. I make a video on my iPhone and email it to my webmail, can't open it on the MacBookPro, but can on my phone from my webmail. On the MacBookPro, a screen opens that displays the "Q" from Quicktime with a question mark on it. That's all I get!
    Thought I didn't have quicktime, but since the computer comes with it and my updates are all up to date, it just doesn't make any sense. This has only started recently. The two videos in question are the longest (under 15 min but over 10) ones I've ever had. When I go to email them, it says they are too long but send them anyway.
    I am perplexed. I really want to be able to watch them (or I wouldn't have made them in the first place) and just can't figure out what to do!!

    Do you have the latest Adobe Flash Player installed? If not then go to the Adobe site and download and install it.
