Downloaded Videos Don't Appear in Video App on iPad

Please help, I've tried to research this everywhere and can't find an answer. I have purchased and downloaded many shows from the itunes store onto my iPad 2 and have previously successfully watched them.
All of a sudden, not sure when, all the videos have disappeared from my Video App. Every time I check the App it says there are "No Videos" and that I can download videos from the the iTunes Store.
I have tried to re-download previous purchases SEVERAL times and each time it indicates that it is downloading and then it completes but they are STILL not in my the Video App. Strange thing is that when I plug in my iPad onto my PC, the videos appear on my iPad icon there and I can watch the videos on my PC but can't find them on my iPad. I have tried to resync my iPad many times and transfer the videos from my Library back onto my iPad but each time the Video App is STILL empty.
I know my iPad works because I have watched downloaded vidoes before. I'm just not sure where they went and when it happened, whether it was after I updated my OS or when my iPad power went down to 0% and shut down.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

It sounds like you don't have videos actually on your device, but you use your device to stream those videos through a service to watch them on your device. What service are you using for your videos?

Rented movies are not appearing in Videos app

I rented 2 movies on my iPad and neither of them are showing up in the Videos app.
iTunes tells me I've already rented the movies but I can't find them anywhere on my iPad.
Any ideas?

A long shot, but try restarting your iPad (hold down the Sleep button until you get the red "swipe to power off" button, do so, and start it back up). That sometimes gets the files to appear. If not, and no one else here has other suggestions, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
Regards.

Movies not appearing in video app ios7

Under iOS6, movies not purchased via iTunes would appear in content list and could be played. Under
iOS7, the same movie appears in the "on my phone" list in iTunes, takes space on my phone (iPhone4 running 7.02),
but the Apple's video report "no content". Additionally, TV shows appear in the video app eventhough
I did not check the "Sync TV movies" section in iTunes. Is my only option to run VLC on these
movies (non-iTunes)? Also, how do you remove TV shows from the iPhone.

Does the count in Settings > General > About > Videos indicate that they are on the iPad ?
Have you tried closing the Videos app completely and seeing if they show when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Videos 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Updates don't appear in mac app store

Hi, I have a problem with the mac app store. I enter to it and in updates it says that I haven't updates. But I have a lot of apps to update... I had this problem time before but with the terminal and some codes I could repair. But now I can't find this method. I have a MacBook Air (13 inc, mid 2013) with Yosemite 10.10.1
I have tried this method but don't work:
Logout, close app store, open app store and loggin with my account.
- Go to the Spotlight system preferences.
         - Go to the Privacy tab.
         - Add your boot drive ("Macintosh HD") to the privacy list and close the preferences.
         - Open the preferences again and remove your hard drive from the list.
         - Reboot the system.
     3. Try resetting the Mac App Store.
     - Enable the debug menu and restart the Mac App Store: defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
   - Choose the Reset Application option and restart the Mac App Store.
     4. Purge the Caches:
     rm -r ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
     rm -r ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.storeagent
     rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
     rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
     rm ~/Library/Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
     5. Changing my region to USA and reset.
So I need a solution...
Thanks!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

Used the same product ID for all folios

IPod touch apps don't appear in iTunes app

My iTunes account used to purchase apps (I always do this on the iPod itself) does not show my apps when I am in iTunes on my computer (using same acct; I double-checked). I have nine pages of apps on the iPod, so I do not want to have to download them again to my computer from the apps store as suggested by people who updated to newer version and lost their apps. Any suggestions? When I connect my iPod to my computer, does the sync apps only work in one direction--computer to iPod? I am afraid to sync for fear of losing all my apps. Thank you for any help you can give me. bjfritz

Any applications downloaded directly to iPod touch are automatically backed up to your iTunes library when you sync.
If you don't trust the automatic system, open iTunes, press and hold Command+Option while connecting your iPod touch to your computer until you see iPod touch appear in the iTunes sidebar. This will prevent automatic syncing. Then use the iTunes File menu -> Transfer Purchases from XXX's iPod Touch.

Subscribed podcasts don't appear on iPhone app.

I subscribe to the Diane Rehm show podcast (both the normal show and the Friday News Roundup). However, my iphone never shows the Friday News Roundup podcasts. These do appear on my iTunes account. When I sync with iTunes, the podcast still don't get loaded onto the iPhone. How can I get the iOS app to see these podcasts?
BTW, this is almost the worst iOS app that there has been, second only to Apple's mapping software.

Select them in itunes & sync them to your phone.

TS3274 Pictures don't display on video apps

I am trying to watch video on Sky go and bbc iplayer, but with both apps the sound plays, but the video screen is blank. Any ideas how to rectify?

Try this. Close all apps and reboot the iPad.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Movie rental won't play and doesn't show in library (not in video app)

I've downloaded the movie successfully. It is not in my iTunes library but when I search using Finder, it says that it is there? (location says iTunes/iTunes Media/Movies/TITLE) When I click to watch via the route file in finder, it rediects to iTunes movie folder but doesn't play and it still isn't on the list.
As it's a rental I'm sure that this will still be considered that I have started viewing so it will expire in 24 hours.
Any way to fix this and to 'reset' this so I can watch it and not have my rental period finished?
Thanks

If you are in the states, you may be able to re-download for free. The file may be corrupted.

Movies, TV Shows, Music Videos from iCloud not showing up in Videos app

So I just did a reset on my iPhone because the movie artwork for the movie Love Actually was a picture of Adele's album artwork and it really bothered me. All the other movies in the Videos app was fine, they all matched to their respective titles. So I did a reset hoping that would fix that tiny minor issue but after doing the reset and restoring, None of the movies I've purchased in the past are showing up. All it says is "No Content. You can download videos from the iTunes Store." And I did go into the Videos settings to make sure "Show All Videos" is being set to on (green) but it still did nothing, none of my movies, tv shows, or music videos are showing up in the cloud. This really irritates me because I had one small issue that I was hoping to fix but now a new problem has risen and it's going to bug the **** out of me more than the original problem did. I tried turning it off and turining it back on, signing in and out of iTunes account, and pressing the power button and the home button at the same time, but still nothing from iCloud has appeared, Is anybody else having this issue? FYI, I also have the latest update 7.0.4 but I don't think that should have caused this issue. If anybody knows a solution, please let me know because as you can see, I'm very OCD about this, I like to see all my videos in the Videos app.

This was driving me nuts, but I figured it out. Here's how to fix:
1) Create (or find) a thumbnail image that represents the series to you (I put text over a screenshot) in Photoshop or whatever you like to use, and put it on the clipboard
2) In iTunes, select all the episodes from your series in the TV Shows view, right click, and select "Get Info"
3) On the first tab ("Info") click in the artwork field, then paste in the thumbnail
4) THIS IS THE KEY STEP - With your iPad plugged into your Mac, go to the TV shows tab and uncheck "Sync TV Shows" and then apply the new settings, and say okay when it tells you all your TV shows will be removed from your iPad
5) After the sync is complete, check to make sure all your TV shows are gone (in the video app, there shouldn't even be a tab for TV Shows)
6) In iTunes, check Sync TV Shows again, then apply
Once the sync is complete, your TV Shows will hopefully show up with good thumbnails.
The issue seems to be that once a file has been copied over, updating the thumbnail image in iTunes will NOT force an update on the iPad, and in the TV Shows view there are no captions on the main screen. You have to delete all the files to wipe the DB on the iPad.

TV shows not visible in videos app on iPhone

I have an iPhone 3gs with ios 5.1. I have downloaded tv shows direct from itunes to the phone. However they don't display in the video app. I plug my phone into my Imac and the tv shows are listed as being on my phone. If I change the catergoy of the tv shows using the option tab to music video- they appear on my phone instantly.
What am I doing wrong that they don't show as TV shows?

Quit the Videos app completely and then go back and look again.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Or try this, if that didn't work.
Swipe to the right from your first home screen to get to the iPad Spotlight search. Type in the name of any of your movies in the field at the top. When the movie appears in the search - tap on it and it should start to play. Let it play for a minute or so - hit done - go back to videos app and see if all is OK.

Downloaded movies on iPad are not showing in video app

I downloaded videos on my iPad straight from the iTunes Store. They show up a being downloaded, I see the status bar and time estimate, the video processes and then it disappears. When I click on the videos app there are no videos available for me to watch and it just redirects me to the iTunes Store.
Things I have tried:
Restarting my iPad
Closing out of iTunes and the video app via multitasking
Going into iTunes and clicking on purchased videos and downloading the video again
Checking if there are any restrictions placed on my device
I subscribe to iTunes Match and iCloud storage so I turned them on and off without any resolution
Any help or guidance would be much appreciated!
I just received the new iPad as a gift and am regretting selling my original iPad that never gave me any problems like this...

Videos marked as TV show won't show up in Videos App since iOS6 on my iPhone4

As soon as I change the categorie ov some video clip to movie or music video in iTunes, every video clip shows up in the Apple Videos App. As soon as I change the category to "TV shows" for one of the videos, it disappears in the Apple Video App. Where do I find my TV shows on my iPhone4 with iOS6?

I don't have a solution but there is a customer review on itunes that lists the 5 episodes of Little Einsteins that do not work on the ipod. I don't know if it is right but the 5 are Ring around the Planet, Pirates Treasure, Birthday Balloons, Dragon Kite, and Incredible Shrinking Machine. I have 3 of those and they don't transfer for me either. All other shows that I have tried work fine. I have contacted apple about those three and they didn't seem to care to help me. Let us know if you find a solution.

Video app crashing & Can't load videos to Ipod Touch 5.1.1

My video app on my IPod touch (4th Gen 64GB) with 5.1.1 keeps on crashing. I read that this is not an uncommon problem. I click on the video app and a white screen shows up for a second, then the app crashes and reverts back to the home screen. This is the only app that is not working.
I have tried the following so far:
Reboot by using the red slider button
Reboot by holding the home and off button for 10sec. Apple logo appears and it reboots
Shut down the video app after double clicking the home button and deleting the open apps
I even did a complete "Reset all Setting" and then used my ITunes back up to load all the data back on.
I tried to delete all movies on ITunes and load a new one. - won't show up when I search for the video on the IPod
I tired to down load a movie from ICloud - won't show up when I search for the video on the IPod after the download
In ITunes the videos that I try to load to the IPod show up on the right menu bar under movies, but they are grayed out.
The one thing I have not tried for obvious reason is the complete wipe and start from scratch by doing the reset from ITunes and loading all apps and setting to the IPod all over again. I was hoping to avoid that pain...
Now, I don't use the Video app much, and could potential wait for OS 6 that is supposed to come out in the fall. That might load a new video app. Unfortunately, I can't delete the video app as it is part of the original set up.
Any tips? What will I lose with a compete wipe and how long will that take?
Thanks for your help

I tried the restore from backup and it did not work. I think I'll just wait until iOS6 and watch movies on my IPad. Don't want to do the factory restore if possible.
Any other tips are welcome!
