Videos will not play in presentation mode.

Videos will not play in presentation mode. They play fine when I preview them in Keynote but once I am presenting it trys to play and then skips the slide. 

Hi dalekw83,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If videos will not play in iTunes for Windows, start with the troubleshooting tips found here:

  • Upgraded to the latest Keynote (5.3 1170) and now videos won't play in presentation mode, only audio

    Upgraded Keynote on my home and work computers to the latest version in the AppStore and now videos won't play in presentation mode.  In edit mode you can double click and it will play in the editor.  This happens on both computers running the latest version of ML (10.8.4).
    Any help here?  Alread tried a reinstall of ML on one machine with no luck.
    Was previously running Keynote 08 (non AppStore version).  Tried creating brand new presentations in 09, no luck.

    I had the same problem today in front of an audience with 300 people (MacbookPro OSX 10.10, Thunderbolt-VGA adapter, PPT 14.4.6).
    Here what I figured out so far:
    1. It happens when you have PPT open and connect to beamer afterwards
    2. You can resolve it (in my case) by quitting PPT and launching it WHEN connected to beamer
    3. Yet, make sure Mac does not go into sleep mode or you get a lock-screen in the waiting time. if you do so, you get back to square 1. quit PPT again 2. restart it.
    4. Also.... in one case I had to hit the volume control once to get the sound back even though movie was playing
    So in short: Connect to beamer first, then launch PPT
    I know it is only a symptom fix but it worked for me

  • Some videos will not play in FF 4 (and earlier versions)

    Some videos will not play in FF 4 (and earlier versions) particularly on facebook. I have the latest version of shockwave flash. Here's what I've tried and has not worked: disabled ad blocker, turned hardware acceleration on/off, installed WMP plug-in, installed VLC multimedia plug-in, installed quick time plug-in, changed plugin-container.exe compatibility to win98/ME. Samething in Win 7. Thanks.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Certain website's videos will not play, MLB and Jay Leno's garage. Why?

    Not sure when this started to happen - perhaps the last update but now the Baseball website and the Jay Leno's garage website's video will not play. They appear to go to sleep while loading. (The little circle goes round and round but never stops.) Other sites seem to work fine.
    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == Since the last update??

    Try these steps, taking the next one if a previous one didn't help:
    *[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#Clear_cookies_and_cache clear cookies and cache] (usually helps with site specific issues),
    *test it in [[safe mode]] (usually helps if a recently installed addon is troublesome;
    **start it in normal mode again then,
    **disable all add-ons in tools - addons,
    **then re-enable them by halves to find the culprit),
    *remove and re-add Firefox to your [[firewalls]] trusted lists (helps if you can't access the web after an update).

  • Hi, I uploaded some flv videos to my blog and can see it fine on my G5, my the videos will not play in Safari on my iPhone iOS4. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi, I uploaded some flv videos to my blog and can see it fine on my G5, my the videos will not play in Safari on my iPhone iOS4. Anyone know how to fix this?

    I've also tried m4v and avi files. Is there another file format that will work?

  • Some videos will not play (blank screen).

    Some of my videos will not play. I select the video and a "Play" arrow shows in the upper left portion of the screen, but the screen is dark (blank). I can press Menu and return.
    I don't believe it's a size issue because certain other larger videos do play. Nor do I think it's a format issue because all of the videos are the same format (*.m4v). It also doesn't appear to be a time/sync issue because some videos added after others do play and some don't.
    I really don't have a problem reformatting and starting over if that is the best or only solution as I only use iTunes and don't have calendar, notes, etc.
    Thanks in advance.

    Where are these from? Are they from the iTunes Store or where they downloaded elsewhere and then added to your library?  Perhaps you can try restoring your iPod to factory settings and then resyncing the videos back over to it.
    If the videos are not from iTunes, perhaps you can try and re-convert them using a third party utility such as Handbrake or MPEG Streamclip.

  • Video will not play, yet audio does.

    Like the header says, all of a sudden I go to work on a project I've never had trouble with and the video will not play; it is frozen wherever the cursor is. Yet the audio does play. I've tried clearing cache, clearing premiere cache, gone all over the internet to try and find an answer, of course India is closed right now, so no help there, not that they really give it anyway. So I'm asking if anyone might have experienced this one and figured it out despite Adobe. I'm on a PC with Windows 8 and terabytes and terabytes of storage; plenty of space left on disc, too. As I said; this has never been even a hint of a problem Just started up today. This even beats most Adobe "beta testing" problems they heap on us unsuspecting sheep. So I'm completely flummoxed. A prize to whoever knows what's up with this! It's a new one on me... Thanks in advance to whichever genius knows the answer! :-)

    OK, I found the answer by myself and wish to share it with those having the same issue. It turns out that the saved workspace can corrupt allowing audio to play, while video remains frozen. The fix is to change the workspace. Go to WINDOW, after creating a new style workspace and save the new workspace. Problem fixed. Also, if there are already a number of other saved workspaces that involve video you can simply change to that one and it will be fixed. Delete the corrupt workspace. That's it! This was discovered through a simple process of elimination which proves that bugs really can surface anywhere for no intuitive reason. Hope this helps you!

  • I noticed after switching from IE9 to Firefox that some website videos will not play. How is this corrected?

    I sometimes want to look at how-to videos. Some play and some do not in Firefox. When a message does come up on the screen it says someting like 'sorry, but the video will not play...do you wish to download the plugin?'. Because I am very catious about what I download, I am not confident about downloading a plugin. Does anyone know what I need for Firefox to play all website videos?
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    I am adding this to my original question:
    I see that quick-time is an available plugin...Is this soething that will work?

    Thank you

    You're welcome. Glad I was able to help you.

  • ITunes videos will not play

    Ever since I've updated to the newer iTunes version, my videos will not play correctly. Any video I bought on iTunes will not work. Also any video previews or trailers from iTunes will not work. Any other video from online or ones that I've recorded work normally. When I try to play a video, this is what it looks like:
    The picture does not show, but the audio plays perfectly. Quicktime and every other software is updated. I've tried to find the answer on the forums but couldn't find one similar to my problem. Also, I cannot contact any apple support by phone because I'm currently living in China and this or e-mail is the most conveinent.
    Help!
    Thanks,
    K.

    Hi Oicrylic,
    If you are still having video playback issues in iTunes, you may want to try the following user isolation troubleshooting to see if the issue can be localized to either a user or a system level cause.

    I updated to IOS 7 on my Ipad 2 and now videos will not play, they freeze and skip and will not play.  Can anyone help?

    Try this  - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Certain music videos will not play in iTunes.  The music plays fine but not the video.  No picture.

    Certain music videos will not play in iTunes.  The music plays fine but not the video.  No picture.  Same with the iPod.  Other videos in the library play fine. Help.

    Regular playlists vs smart playlist does not make a difference. What I noticed is that some videos create this behavior and some not. I created 2 videos and 2 music playlists, one with 2 songs and 2 videos (that I encoded myself with Handbrake). Another list with 2 videos and 2 songs, videos encoded with Handbrake, but that I noticed they triggered the behavior. The first playlist played fine, with no problems. The second one, created the problem. When I look at the video, it is the same type of video (bit rate, audio channels, etc...) I don't see why it would do that.
    Later I will test: playing those videos in question and then selecting songs to see if they play.
