Videos application will not open?

The videos application on my iPad 2 will not open. All i get is a blank black screen when attempting to open 'videos'.

I don't fully understand what's involved but I've found that a System Reset cures many ills.  It's easy, quick and harmless:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home  button  simultaneously  until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to  power off" text if  it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also,  you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide.  Pay special   attention to page 162.  Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1   with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the    hardware.
http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
Finally,   the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less    comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.

  • Mail application will not open

    My mail application quit opening a few weeks ago. When I try to open it with the icon on the dock and in the finder the screen just blinks. Even my computer savvy wife cant figure it out. My next stop is the genius bar unless there are some geniuses here. I can still get mail via .mac log in but cannot send links or documents as the OS mail application will not open when I need to send them.
    Any suggestions????

    I would take your OS X installation disc and insert it in the drive, then restart the Mac and hold down the C key until you see the spinning cursor on screen. When it finishes loading, select Disk Utility from the Installer menu and first Repair Disk, then Repair Permissions, then reboot from your HD, eject the OS X disc and try Mail again.
    If that doesn't work, then the best thing in terms of time and effort would be to do an Archive and Install of OS X 10.5, with the Preserve Users and Network Settings option. This will install a new copy of 10.5, while preserving all of your current folders and applications, and moving all the old ones to a folder named Previous System. You can then use Software Update to bring it current to 10.5.3, run Repair Permissions when that's done, then Mail should work normally again. Once you've confirmed that and that all your other programs and files are intact and working, you can delete the Previous System folder.

  • I recently had my account expire, and need to utilize the trial to finish a project. Even though my account says 'free trial' the applications will not open. How do I get the APP to recognize that I'm in trial and not expired?

    I recently had my account expire, and need to utilize the trial to finish a project. Even though my account says 'free trial' the applications will not open. How do I get the APP to recognize that I'm in trial and not expired?

    I had a year long CC membership that expired at the beginning of the October.
    After realizing that, I attempted to start a free trial of photoshop to work on a project. My Adobe account states that i'm on a trial, but my (Mac) dashboard CC app won't allow me to start the program. I have reinstalled both Creative Cloud and Photoshop CC but still get this message.

  • My classic OS9 applications will not open

    My Classic OS9 applications will not open, and I cannot find the classic OS9 application showing in the preferences window.I tried installing Classic OS9 on a disc I had from another computer but maybe it was the wrong disc

    Here is apple's take on the subject.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1929
    Try this:
    1) on your eMac update the machine to 9.2.2 
      -- ( it needs to be 9.2.2 I think & do not know if you can update to 9.2.2
            on Mac OS X.  I think you can update on X, but not 100% sure. )
    2) get a flash drive
    3) format to flashdrive to Mac OS extended 
      -- ( guess you could use journaled.  )
      -- ( need to perserve resource forks.)
    4) copy the folder
         System Folder
    to the flash drive. 
       -- ( this is the mac os 9 folder.  Only the Max OS X will/may have the 9 on the folder. )
       -- ( do not move it on emac like to the desktop etc. )
    5) copy to your iMac.
    6) Bless classic folder.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1929 for how.
    Let me know how it goes.  Could try it out since I have Classi running in a partition on this machine.

  • Applications Will Not Open

    Many of my applications will not open. After clicking on them, they sometimes bounce before notifying me that the application quit unexpectedly. I can't get iTunes to open at all before it crashes.

    I'm having a very similar problem. A night or two ago I did a system update and since then I can't get Safari, iTunes or my Word to open. I don't know if there are any other applications affected, I don't really care, these are the ones I use practically everyday.
    I did try to look at my activity monitor too since the spinning beachball and Safari closing on me was a common thing, and I did look at the inactive processes, and I did try to quit some of the processes that were under my name, since I could not log into the root user. So I probably messed something up there, but anyway...
    I tried to restart, unplug the AC/remove the battery and hold power for 5 seconds, do the entire create a new account thing, delete the com.apple.safari.plist and no success. I also tried to do the repair permissions thing and it says "Repairing permissions for "Macintosh HD" Error: No valid packages Permissions repair complete.
    Another weird thing is that the clock and airport icons are gone again from my bar. I had to put them back yesterday.
    I know I will probably have to reinstall everything, I tried to do that, but I lost my discs in my move, so I know I will probably have to drive 3 hours to take it to a genius to fix, but I was hoping someone would have some clue or insite as to what I can do to try and fix this situation. I love my mac and my boyfriend is getting one this weekend (converted him from PC), so I don't want him to think they are bad at all!! Thanks.

  • My calendar application will not open.

    My calendar application will not open. Any suggestions?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • I have a 5min. video that will not open.Osstatus error-54 appears. Can this problem be resolved, if so, HOW?

    I have a 5 min. video that will not open the cause of which appears to be due to an osstatus-54 error. can this be resolved & if so, how?

    It means that the orignal video file is missing which is not good news. How was the file placed on the backup hard drive?  Can you select the file on the EHD and play it with Quicktime Player?  That will tell you if the backup is a good backup.

    when I went to the library folder there was no receipts only 
    com.adobe.Reader whihc included install.log
    so I guess that means something is missing?
    If above still doesn't resolve problem - go to the folder named 
    "Receipts" in the Mac OS X Library folder (i.e. the main Library 
    not you Users Library) and delete the file named Adobe Photoshop 
    Lightroom 2.pkg

  • Application will not open because it may be damaged or incomplete - any thoughts?

    I photo application will not open because it may be damaged or incomplete.  Any thoughts on how to fix this?

    Reinstall it:
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
    For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    *Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928
    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • Premiere Elements 11 application will not open!!

    I just bought the combo PSE11 and PE11 and installed them both.  PSE11 works great but PE11 will not open at all.  I tried several uninstalls and installs, disabling windows essentials, defender, all spyware on my machine and everytime get the same result.  PE11 appears to install fine but when you go to open application there is no response.  I am using a Dell xps with intel i7 12 gig RAM running windows 7.  Any help?

    Welcome to the forum.
    John T. has mentioned the #1 cause of PrE not launching - the video driver.
    His questions are very important, and would be where I would start.
    To restate:
    What is the video card in your computer, both make and model?
    What is the version of the installed video driver?
    Is that the latest one? Note: with many computers from major mfgrs., such as Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc., the computer company will re-wrap the latest drivers from nVidia, or AMD/ATI, so the user needs to go to the computer site, and get/check the latest available driver.
    PrE must interface more intensely with the video driver, than does PSE, so it is common for PSE to run fine, but PrE to hang on an obsolete video driver. Even simple OS updates can render a video driver obsolete, and that is why video card mfgrs. will issue updates almost monthly. One little caveat here - there have been some noted issues with a few of the more recent AMD/ATI video drivers, the Catalyst drivers, and in some cases, users have had to roll-back their Catalyst drivers, to get things to work.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Gallery application will not open

    Gallery on my Samsung Stellar will not open. i  can backup the pictures via the direct USB connection to my computer but when i try to open the Gallery app i get a pop up message, that disappears quickly, that basically says to delete some software or pictures to free up space.
    since you can not open the app it makes it tough to delete pics

        beastar55, let's get rid of that pop up message! Our goal is to free up memory space on your device. We recommend that you uninstall any unwanted applications, text messages, e-mails, and call logs. Once you have deleted all unwanted information, try to access the picture gallery again.
