Videos of a certain length pause, resume, then audio won't work

I have the 60 GB video ipod. I've copied over lots and lots of different videos. Mostly short music videos I copied over from DVD's.
I also copied my personal Seinfeld DVD's using various software to get it to the Ipod. It worked fine for awhile but now, any video longer than roughly 25 minutes (Seinfeld, some sermons, etc.), will pause after roughly 1 minute of play, then resume after about 15 seconds, but the video only resumes. The audio will not resume.
They used to work. I did recently do two things and I've played around with reversing them but it didn't help. I downloaded the update to Quicktime. I did a restore thinking maybe it caused it but that didn't work. Also, I associated these shows as "TV Shows" in Itunes, but that meant I had to create a playlist for them to transfer to the pod. I tried associating a few as just "movies" and see if that made a difference and it did not.
I'll keep searching the board as I'm sure some others may have encountered this. In the meantime, please help me if you can. Thanks.

Yes it sounds like bad sectors on the drive are responsible.
Supposely driver software is supposed to map off bad sectors before data is laid on the platters, but sometimes it's not perfect.
If you have software that will Erase w/Zero option (writes Zero's to every bit on the drive) the driver software will then map off every possible bad sector.
Then use the latest iPod Updater to format and so forth.
I had to Zero both my Raptors and 60GB iPods, since doing so I've had no problems.

My MacBook Pro shuts off and then Internet won't work!

Okay so my MacBook Pro used to work perfect but then one day it just shut off then didn't turn back on for like 10 mins! And my charger didn't work so I figured I just had to unplug the middle part! But when I start it back up there are pop ups asking if I should accept or deny! And my clock is set to 2008 and I try to connect to the Internet but it gets an exclamation mark and never works! I've tried restarting it but no change! And sometimes it will work but it won't work for like a week then it does this like every week

I would take your machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them run diagnostics on it and give you an estimate on what it would cost to fix the entire machine. This will be free. If the estimate sounds outrageous, you can always ask about the Apple falt rate repair policy - you could have a 'like new' machine for less than $350US.

Why can't Siri pause/resume any audio via the common audio interface in i

Siri should be able to pause or resume, even playbnext or previous for any audio in your iPhone. Since iOS has that shared audio interface you would think she would support the same features which are built into the operating system. But when you try it with pandora for example, she complains you are not listening to any music. Surely this is something that should be supported.

Sounds like a good idea. Let Apple know you'd like to see that feature:

Video wouldn't play on iPod; Used Videora & still won't work

Hey guys, I have a 30 GB Video iPod, and I'm a bit new at this. I have some videos I downloaded and when I tried putting them into my iPod, it said it could not be played, since it was in .avi format.
But then, I found out about Videora, so I decided to try to convert my videos in Videora so it can play on my iPod video. Now, if anyone has used Videora before, they know that they have alot of options like MPEG-4/320x240/768 kpbs Stereo/128 kbps to H264/320x240/16:9/640 kpbs Stereo/128 Kpbs. When my video finished converting, I tried putting it into my iPod again, and it said it could not be played, even though it was in .mp4 format.
Could someone please tell me which one I should use, MPEG-4 or H264 ? And tell me what I'm doing wrong? I used Videora once to download a video, and now I can't seem to remember what I did. PLEASE HELP!?

im with you im having the same problem i came from using a 30 gb zune and got tired of there no playing video bull and bad customer service and i cant figure out my music vids on my new 30 gb ipod video also

Youtube videos only open with quicktime--small screen/no audio. Flash works with Safari, not Firefox.

I've updated flash, reset Firefox, restarted Mac. Youtube videos will not load with Flash. They open with Quicktime in a 1x2 inch box of low res images with no audio.

Open up your preferences/Options and open up applications. From here check the preferences for youtube files. In about:permissions you can check the preferences for youtube.com as well.

Audio won't work when watching .avi video

So I have these episodes of Nip/Tuck I'm trying to watch. (Guilty pleasure!) But there is no sound. Just a clear, perfect video. A box pops up the first time and it sends me to the QuickTime Components page.
The video file has a .avi extension if that helps any. I also have the latest version of QuickTime.
Help! I need audio to know what's going on!

Download & install one and/or both of the following:
VLC Media Player
Perian (AVI and FLV support)
*Repair permissions & restart.*
P.S. Last Tuesday's episode-Christian gets even w/little miss slutette.

What is the plugin-container.exe file? How do I get rid of it?I keep getting a 70% usage message about this plugin. I tried to delete it but then Firefox won't work.

What is the plugin-container.exe file? It seems to be using 70% of usage of my computer's memory. How do I get rid of it?

Plugin-container is an "out-of-process plugins" crash protection, see for more info the link, and if you want to disable try the analytical info :

Play, pause, and skip button won't work on lock screen

When I slide the little tab up and it gives you the options of the flashlight,calculator, and camera the play button and skip button don't work. I have an ipod5 and updated to iOS 7 how do I get it to work

Thanks for your help. I tried a restore but that didn't work. Do you know of any instructions for taking one of these units apart? I might try seeing if anything is obstructing the buttons. If not, the buttons are probably faulty, just as you said.

Display "global" text caption for a certain length of time

I hope I can explain what I'm trying to do...
I have a text caption that I want to conditionally display for a fixed length of time at the start of most of slides in my project.
The caption is placed on an introductory slide in the project, in a hidden state.
Then I have created a Conditional Action to Show the caption. This Advanced Action is then called On Enter for the slides where I want to display the caption. However, I need to be able to hide the caption again after a couple of seconds.
So essentially I want the following logic:
On slide entry, if displaying caption, then Show Caption, Wait 2 seconds, Hide Caption.
But I can't see how to do this using a single text caption that is available project-wide.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Pause / Resume button combination not working when set to display for "rest of project"

Good day,
I have created a set of four objects on slide2 of my project
1. Smart Object rounded rectangle with text "(playing) - CLICK to Pause" [this is the graphic the user sees]
2. Smart Object rounded rectangle with text "(paused) - CLICK to Resume" [this is the graphic the user sees]
3. Smart Object rectangle, transparent, used as button, set to not display in project - btn_Resume
4. Smart Object rectangle, transparent, used as button - btn_Pause
A. Script assigned to btn_Pause hides btn_Pause and the "CLICK to Pause" graphic, shows the btn_Resume and "CLICK to Resume" graphic, and pauses the project by setting the system pause variable to 1
B. Script assigned to btn_Resume hides btn_Resume and the "CLICK to Resume" graphic, shows the btn_Pause and "CLICK to Pause" graphic, and resumes the project by setting the system resume variable to 1
C. All items are set to display from the beginning of slide2 for the "rest of project"
On slide 2, the buttons hide/show and pause/resume behaviors work correctly.
On slide 3, the correct initial button and graphic appears, and the click sound works when clicked, but no behaviors (show/hide/pause) occur until a good amount of time into the slide: you can click all you want for 20-30 seconds, but nothing works except the click sound. Eventually, the behavior will work.
On slides 4 and following, the correct initial button and graphic appears, and the click sound works when clicked, but no behaviors EVER work.
If the behaviors NEVER, EVER worked, I would keep looking for what I did not have set correctly, but the correct working on the slide where they are set, delayed behavior on the next, and no behavior on the remainder of slides following has me stumped.
Captivate version 6.0.1.240

I hope I'm missing something obvious here, and I'm more than willing to face-palm if you tell me . Otherwise, I have not been able to find any setting that makes any difference. I would REALLY rather not duplicate the buttons and scripts on every page of the project. Given the blog posts I have seen saying this method should work just fine, I'm hoping there is a side quirk somewhere that I'm missing.
Thanks for any help you can give.

Without clouding with too much explanation, this technique arose out of a need to deal with (in a different project) objects that were grouped, and wanting to deal with the groups in as simple a way as possible, allow for easy swapping of group assets, and having a few buttons do multiple things. The idea of being able to have multiple interactive buttons stacked on top of each other while appearing for the rest of the project led to trying this simple construct before trying something more complex.
You are correct, that there is a simpler solution, which we ended up using because we were not able to get two interactive buttons stacked on top of each other while displayed for the rest of the project to work properly (although that is SUPPOSED to work, as far as I understand).
Here's what we ended up doing:
A) Two smartshapes used as messaging graphics
B) A single (one) interactive smartshape used as a button
C) A conditional action to pause/resume and show/hide the appropriate messaging graphics
D) All three objects (A&B) stacked, B on top.
E) All objects set to always appear on top, and to display for rest of project.
Our hypothesis, then, is that you are not able to stack interactive objects on top of each other and then display for the rest of the project.
If anyone has evidence to the contrary, we would, gladly, take a look.
Thanks for your interest Lilybiri, and for your input.
Best regards,
Hank

How can I make the headphone button pause/resume the right thing on my MacBook?

On my iPhone, I've developed the habit of using the headphone button to pause/resume/skip what I'm listening to.
But on my Mac, I try to do the same and instead it ends up launching iTunes, which I do not generally use for listening to music.
For example, here is a page with a simple audio player
http://jsfiddle.net/g69x2rt6/embedded/result/
I start playing the music, then I press the headphone button. Instead of pausing the playing music, as I expect, iTunes opens.
The linked page works fine on my iPhone, with the same headphones.
How do I get the proper behavior back?

Do a hard restart:
hold the power button and the home button down together until the device shows the apple symbol again (hold it past the actual red slider and black screen). When you see the Apple symbol come up, release both buttons
then try to reset if that does not work

Hi KMillson
What product are you trying to install ?

I am using final cut express 4. It seems that any clip over a certain length, say 5 min, does not fully transfer! All shorter clips are perfectly fine. Is there some reason why longer clips are not fully transferred? (a half blue circle shows up on the transfer list, indicating that the clip was not fully transferred. When I check in the capture scratch folder, sure enough the whole clip is not there!
Is there some glitch in final cut express that only allows short clips to be transferred in full?

Thanks for the reply. I'll try to answer all the questions (I am a relative novice). Your help is appreciated.
By the way, the other reply I received suggested the following:
In Final Cut Express>System Settings>Scratch Discs make sure the Limit Capture/Export File Segement Size To: is not checked.
I did this and it was already unchecked. So this is not the answer...
The strange thing is, I have been logging and transferring with FCE for 2 yrs without any problems at all with shorter clips, but have come up against the problem with long clips (over 5 or so min) the whole time. I got around it by simply making sure I stopped recording after less than 5 min while shooting footage. OR if I accidentally got a long clip, I import into imovie and then import into FCE. Not very streamline and I worry about compressions altering quality!
I am now trying to import a 20 min and a 17 min clip and it only transfers around 3 minutes of each, I have re-tried several times and it happens repeatedly. The blue circle in the transfer list shows up as a half blue circle instead of full. Clip cuts off after 3 or so minutes.

Video playback from iTunes keeps pausing

Just bought an ipad air and synced it with my itunes. However video playback keeps pausing and I have to either restart the video app or rewind a minute or so to get it to keep playing. Even then it doesnt always work.
Any ideas what the problem may be?

I have the same problem. I have a g4 466 with a gigabite of ram. I installed the latest iTunes/quicktime updates. I downloaded a tv show, and it was nearly unwatchable, it dropped so many frames. What gives?
