Videos won't play on iPad2 after upgrade to iOS 8.1.3

I have iPad2, 16g storage. Recently upgraded to iOS 8.1.3 and since then no email will play. This includes any videos in my FaceBook news feed, any sent via email or even any long-existing videos in Dropbox. Has anyone had same issues? Can anyone help?
THanks.

Without knowing exactly what happens when you try to play a video, close all apps and reset your iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
IF that fails to help, and it very well could, you should describe what is happening so that more specific suggestions can be offered.

  • ITunes purchased video no longer plays on 3GS after upgrade to os 4

    iTunes purchased video no longer plays on 3GS after upgrade to os 4. Specifically, curious George episodes used to make my 2 year old go off to his quiet place no longer play on my iPhone. Anyone else having this issue or know of a solution? The content was purchased on iTunes and played fine on previous os.

  • HT4972 is my Time Machine backup sufficient to reload my iPad2 after Upgrading to IOS 5?

    Is my Time Machine backup acceptable to restore data to my iPad2 after upgrading the OS system to IOS 5?

    Not quite sure what you mean. Time Machine doesn't talk directly to the iPad, so there's no "restore from Time Machine" option when you restore the iPad. When you make a backup in iTunes, that backup is stored in a support folder, and when you restore it, you should see that option appear - but TM is not involved.

  • IPod won't play purchased music after upgrading.....

    Help -
    My boss has the 30g video IPod. He has upgraded his Itunes software to 7.0 and also upgraded his IPod to 1.2 (whatever the newest version is). He is not having the problems I have seen others are having but the issue he is having is that his IPod will not play his purchased music.
    I did find this article (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303854) on the website and have tried everything it suggests to fix it. All the software is up-to-date, we have deauthorized and reauthorized his computer, and I have followed the instructions to recreate the Itunes Library. Still the songs won't play - he can navigate to the folder of purchased music on the IPod and it will let him hit play but it will just display the song and album cover and then keep skipping to the next song - never actually playing the song.
    Can anyone please give me some advice for what else to try? If all else fails he would like to just restore his IPod and go back to ITunes 6.0. I tried this by uninstalling ITunes 7 and then installing 6 again but when I open 6 it says it can not be opened because the library was created by a newer version of ITunes. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
    Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!!!

    I have this exact same problem since I bought my new 80GB iPod.
    All purchased songs play fine in iTunes on my Mac but they just skip past each track when I try to play on my iPod. As mentioned above I have tried the advice Apple give and have restored my iPod and recreated library but I still have the same problems.

  • Videos won't play since 4.5 upgrade???

    I upgraded to 4.5 a few weeks ago (curve 8320 with T-Mobile) and any videos that I try to put on my phone now in WMV, AVI, etc format will not play.  Either I get a red error box saying the file is incompatible or it acts like it's going to play but it won't play.  I've never had to convert WMV before to play on the previous OS for the phone (4.2.2), they always played!  So I tried converting them with media manager, some still won't play and the ones that do have a black border around the video where almost 1/4 of the screen is blank with no video (and yes I have "full screen mode" selected).
    What is the deal with video and 4.5?  What file formats works now?  I don't understand why they removed ability to play these formats.  Always gotta be a problem with everything these days...
    Solved!

    Seems that something is wrong with your device OS.
    Backup your sensitive data via BB Desktop Manager.
    Try to wipe the memory: Options-> Security Options->General Settings
    Open menu and select "Wipe handheld"

  • IPad2: After upgrad to iOS 8, video output lost left and right side

    I have a cable for my iPad2, once plugged in the bottom slot, it outputs video to TV Component port and audio to my amplifier. It's been working for years. After iOS 8 upgrade, I notice the video output lost left and right side. It's like
    [before iOS 8]     Apple iPad is a wonderful product for me.
    [after upgrade]             iPad is a wonderful product
    The "Apple" on the left, and "for me." on the right of screen is gone in output.

  • ITunes won't play purchased songs after upgrade to 8.1.1

    For 6 years this forum has been incredibly useful in solving problems with my various Macs, but now I've run into an issue I can't solve just by reading about the misfortune of others.
    After upgrading to 8.1.1 this evening, I am no longer able to play any previously purchased iTunes music. I end up stuck in the "loop" described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389. Unfortunately, the remedies described in the article are not working. I have de-authorized and re-authorized my computer twice, restarted several times, checked for an "SC Info" folder in my /users/shared folder (don't have one), repaired permissions, and even downloaded and played the free single of the week from the iTunes store (at the suggestion of another post), all to no avail. There are no other accounts on this computer other than mine, and I do not share my library. Any advice or info would be greatly appreciated.

    These are other hints http://www.copytrans.net/helpcopytrans.php#22
    That might help.

  • Embedded videos won't play in Safari on iPhone 5 iOS 8.02

    All of a sudden I can't play any embedded YouTube videos in safari from my iPhone 5. I think the issue started when I upgraded to iOS 8.02.
    I can see the screenshot of the video, and the red and white play button in safari, but it isn't clickable. I can click on the word youtube in the upper right hand corner of the picture and it will launch the YouTube app and then the video will play from the YouTube app, but never from safari anymore.
    I've tried closing the safari app, clearing safari history, resetting the iphone, downloaded Google chrome, and even tried to use my RSS reader to view the webpage. They all do the same thing, and none will let me click the play button to watch the embedded video.
    Anyone have any ideas?  This is driving me crazy!  Thanks!

    After some messing around, I found out that I can't press the red/white play button on the middle of the picture. For some reason, that isn't clickable anymore. Instead, if I press anywhere on the picture preview except for the red/white play button, then the video will play fine.
    I Don't remember having to do that before, but at least I can watch embedded videos again.

  • Itunes won't recognize iphone 3gs after upgrade to IOS 5

    Backup for Iphone on itunes was made on DELL INSPIRON MINI 10 laptop running XP Professional, Thursday evening 10-13-2011.
    Upgraded Itunes to new system (ios 5) Friday evening 10-14-2011.
    Connected Iphone to laptop Saturday afternoon to sync and upgrade phone to ios 5. after 2 hours phone was wiped clear, and itunes dropped recognition icon from list. several attempts were made to re-sync. all failed, itunes would not recognize. ended up restarting phone and installing upgrade on another computer. Laptop still failed to recognize.
    attempted upgrade to Ipod and it locked up on "Disconnect before removing'. opened Itunes dropdown and selected 'Diagose devise' and was able to restore ipod and sync with itunes. afraid to attempt 'diagnose' with iphone, now that it is working.
    back-up for iphone still appears on itunes,,,, just can't back it up...XP is unable to 'ICloud' and my DELL Window Vista Home Premium won't install updates so ICloud won't load....

    Help please - my computer does not recognize iPhone after upgrading to IOS4 and iTunes 9.2 ---- I have WIndows 7 --- have tried EVERYTHING and still it does not work. I want to do my albums via the computer, not iTunes since it adds the Photo Library folder, which is a duplicate of all my picture folders.
    Does anyone have a real solution please? I have uninstalled, installed, deleted drivers, installed drivers - the computer says the drivers are working, but obviously not.
    When is Apple going to post the solution so that people will know what to do - seems everyone has an idea, but none are working for me and the extra photo folder frankly drivers me crazy ---- something about iPod cache ----- do not want duplicate pictures.
    And, will albums be able to be edited - can these pics not be sent to Facebook.
    I know, several topics ----- what a mess Apple has created with IOS4 and iTunes 9.2. Ready to send the phone back!

  • 4S won't sync or charge after upgrading to iOS 7

    I upgraded to iOS 7 and now my 4S won't recognize any usb interaction whatsoever. I've updated iTunes and it still won't sync. It will charge, but only when the device is off. When it is on, there is no recognition by my computer or the phone that the usb is interacting. I can sync via wifi, but it won't find it via usb. Any ideas on what to do?

    I have the same issue.  When I try to attach my iPhone 5 to my computer, as I have done countless times before, it just sits there and chimes repeatedly like I am unplugging and replugging it in very quickly.  Wiggling the cable has no effect.  My iPad has no problems hooking in.  I have wi-fi, and my phone does not show up in iTunes through wi-fi either.  I am perplexed.....

  • Won't play mp2 files after upgrade to 7

    Hi, I had QT pro 6, and updated to 7 in a regular recommended software updates session. I tried to play .mp2 video files and I get -5000 error. I can't find out what the error means? I just says it can't play this file. Why can't QT 7 play a simple mpeg2 file? the actual file name is like "whatever.mp2"
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Hi,
    OK, I found the problem. If you set a folder in "shared documents, specifically, shared videos, you don't get full privilages. It makes no sense at all. Now I moved the files to "my documents" and set that one to share, and it allowed me to access and play the video files on my powerbook over my wireless network. It makes no sense at all, because the settings are the same for either folder. It is just a stupid xp thing. If I could just afford to get a nice imac G5 or new duocore, I could eliminate my pecee. I only use it for watching tv (ati all in wonder card), recording tv shows, and using it as a server for my saved video files. I use my powerbook G4 and ibook G4 for everything else. I LOVE my macs, they work without problems! I wish apple would start a lay-a-way program so I could put a little down each week toward an imac. thanks for the help guys

  • Videos won't play the music after converted in iTunes and put on iPod

    I converted some videos in iTunes and then put them on the iPod and there is no sound with the video. Does anybody have the same problem and can you help fix this? Thanks.

    I have this same problem also and have found out that you have buy a video from istore to get it to convert to your ipod. If you just add a video already on your cmp to itunes, it will not convert the sound over the itunes, this appears mostly on Window pc's, not as much as a mac to my knowledge.
    Good luck

  • No Service on iPad2 after upgrade to iOS 8. Turning device off and on resolves the issue, but after a while No Service again. Any advice?

    TUrning it off and on temporarily resolves the issue, so after a while No Service appears again. Any advice?

    Add me to the list. iOS 8 caused the 3G on my iPad to drop out. No Service shows up and the cell number disapears.
    Rebooting or resetting Network Connections restores service for a time.
    Then the iOS 8.01 comes out and causes the same issue with iPhone 6.
    Two two things are for sure: Apple is slipping and the upgrade has serious issues. Oh, and I thought flip phones were dead. iPhone 6 bends into a flip phone. Sometimes I crack myself up.
