TS3274 What can I do about the constant buffering during videos?

Suddenly all of my videos are buffering or freezing. My iTunes purchased and rental movies included. What can I do to resolve this. I need this action for work. This is terrible! Thanks for any advice. I will try anything at this point.

Diavonex is not an Apple employee - none of us that post here are employed by Apple so we can't "just fix" this issue for you - or for anybody else that is having this problem. Diavonex offered a suggestion - that's all.
Have you tried any of the basic stuff, resetting the iPad, closing all apps in the task bar and restarting, clearing Safari if you are having the problem viewing video content on the web ....?
I have a very fast Internet connection speed and this happens to me once in a while, it even happens on my new MacBook. It certainly should not happen all of the time, but it does happen. I know that the further I am away from my WiFi router, the worse the issue can be. If I try to stream a video from HBO GO for example and I am sitting out on my back deck, the video may begin to buffer on me.
So why don't you just offer the help to Gia and Brian, instead of posting that it is a widespread problem? What have you done to try to fix the issue?
@Gia and Brian.....
I wish that I had a better answer for you, but I don't. Have you tried rebooting your router and/or cable modem? Every once in a while that simple little fix can work wonders.

    Aww drat! I was going to recommend "AttackA-Hak" which was free from VapourWare Inc.
    a) The likelihood of your Apple device being hacked is millions to one against.
    b) If it was, Apple would be very interested in seeing your device as you would be one of the first.

    Before you buy a new cell phone or new tablet, please try the following procedure to repair your device. First charge your battery, backup your important data if possible and in most cases take out SIM and SD card. It is impossible to recover your data after doing a hard reset, so online backup is always important. For all of your data, a backup should be done on an external device, hard drive, raid system or media. With or without insurance, if your cell phone lost, damaged or stolen at least your invaluable data is backed up in a safe place.

  • What can be done about the terrible font rendering in Adobe Flash 11.6?

    Some fonts in the latest version of Adobe Flash are terrible.  They are almost unreadable!
    Take a look at the fonts rendered from Adobe's own site:   (Can you read what version or OS or Browser?)
    I have other sites where the fonts are readable but they are still very bad.
    Please help!

    I have found a solution. The problem is really with Google Chrome v 25.???  To get it to work properly you will need to go to    chrome://plugins/   and "enable" the pepflashplayer.dll.
    I had to click on the "+ Details" link on the far right, in the plugins header bar.  This will open a hidden portion to the Flash player and you can then enable that .dll.  It looks a bit like this:
    Name:
    Shockwave Flash
    Description:
    Shockwave Flash 11.6 r602
    Version:
    11.6.602.171
    Location:
    C:\Users\mrice\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\25.0.1364.97\PepperFlash\pepflashpl ayer.dll
    Type:
    PPAPI (out-of-process)
    Enable
    MIME types:

    Description
    File extensions
    application/x-shockwave-flash
    Shockwave Flash
    .swf
    application/futuresplash

    .spl
    This worked for me.
    I also posted this solution on the Google Chrome "feedback" page. 
    Good Luck,

  • HT5429 What can I do about the fact that IOS maps no longer shows my home street correctly on the map?

    It showed correctly under Google maps but whole sections of the street are missing under IOS 6.
    I have tried reporting the problem via the recommended method and received no response. I know that this is also a problem in Tom Tom because I discovered after paying a significant amount for their iPhone app only to find my address missing on their maps. I tried reporting it to them months ago and they made no change in their app or maps. I do not live in a remote area but a within the city limits of metropolitan area and the house has been here since 1929, giving Apple and Tom Tom ample time to get it right!
    I am very disappointed that neither Apple or Tom Tom have not even responded to my request despite my investment in their products.

    I personally am waiting for Google to release a new map app for IOS. Unfortunately it won't be nicely integrated into other apps unless other developers realize, like they have with DropBox or Box, that there are sometimes better alternatives to meeting individual needs than what Apple chooses to foist on us
    If the maps issue is so important and debilitating to you then get rid of your Apple devices and buy Android. You claim that Apple "foists" things on its users. Leave the platform. Problem solved. Is it really that hard to understand? Why stay with a company or product you despise or are unhappy with? What is it with people ike you anyway?
    What exactly do you mean by "people ike[sic] me?" You presume to know me from a few words I have written here?! I am not enough of a true believer to suit you?! I dare to question decisions that others have made that affect me?!
    Well I will share one thing about me. I am a long time Apple user and supporter (Mac Plus) but I am also a firm believer in the maxim, "If it aint broke, don't fix it!" It seems to me the only thing Apple sought to fix in their switch to Tom Tom's mapping data was their link to a growing competitor, Google. The many complaints from those with a signifcant investment in affected Apple products like me (2 iPads, 2 iPhones, 2 iPods) are well founded and deserving of a voice. There have been many problems with the new map data reported and not a lot of bravos. I have read on a similar thread to this one the Apple has said it may be 2-3 years to get the maps up to speed.
    I don't know about you, but the Google maps data was working fine for me including all the other apps it integrated with. So why should I have to go out and spend my hard earned money on another platform? Why should I not expect that Apple will be responsive to its users if we raise our voices in protest of an uneeded change that has produced bad results.
    Maybe my choice of the word "foist" (to introduce or insert surreptitiously or without warrant) was a little strong but who here feels they were consulted by Apple before they made this major switch that affects so much of the functionality of their portable devices?

    Since this appears to have started right around the same time the trojan started to make the rounds, I thought it could possibly be a security measure and decided that - in that case - it's a good thing.
    Thanks for your input. However I am hard pressed to see any rational correlation between the recent trojan and security issues on the https Apple Support Communities. Getting log-out after such a short amount of time  is the antithesis of user friendly behavior.

    No, it did not start with the new boards. This change took place well after the launch of the ASC.

  • What can I do about the Safari 5.1.4 "Request Timeout" appearing when I try to access most of the websites?

    Please could anyone help me with the "Request Timeout" thing? Once I installed the leopard on the laptop and Safari became a disaster .. It doesn't open most of the websites, even the apple website sometimes !!
    The error I get is :
    Request Timeout
    The server timed out while waiting for the browser's request.
    Reference #2.e3373bc3.1331738341.0

    Once I installed the leopard on the laptop
    But your profile indicates you have Snow Leopard installed v10.6.8
    If it's v10.6.8, installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 may help.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.

  • What can I do about the large number of Paypal payments that fail to go through?

    Many of my customers need to repeat their signup process 2 or 3 times before their Paypal payment is accepted.
    Or worse still, they think payment has gone through, and unless I check the form responses every day, I don't even know that they think they have registered but in fact haven't paid.

  • What can I do about the vertical lines on my iMac screen?

    For the past few days there have been 2 lines, one a solid, definite white, the other faded toward the bottom.  It's been almost 5 years since I bouight it, so out of warantee, but isn't there some solution, other than (ouch) buying a new one?

    Had the same problem but with red vertical line to right of screen. Called support and was told this was either a problem with screen itself or video that is displaying lines on screen. Support was very patient and talked me through shutting down mac then holding down certain keys ( I forgot which ones) as I turn the power back on.  Try calling support. Hope this helps.
