When I am watching video podcasts in iTunes video is very slow to pause ...

I have some interesting video from iTunesU on my iMac iTunes server
and sync them to the iPad where the video is mobile and wonderful,
but ...
When playing, I tap and tap on the screen sometimes and the video controls
will not show up, like if I want to adjust the volume or scrub to another
location, rewind, etc.
Is there a secret to hitting the right spot, or does everyone have this problem?
Is this just a tweaking problem with interrupts inside the iPad OS or is
something wrong? Is there a way to get the controls to stay on screen all
the time so this does not happen?

Does no one else have this problem.
If I want to turn the volume up or down, or pause the video for a moment,
I am furiously tapping on the screen to get the iPad's attention, and it can
take a long time for that thing to hear me and pop up the control in the
video.
Is it just me?

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good, you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone to your computer. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You can also redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

I sometimes have blue and red square-shaped dots appear on my MBP; especially but not exclusively when I'm watching videos. The dots don't stay in the same place; and also they are not there all the time.

I sometimes have blue and red square-shaped dots appear on my MBP; especially but not exclusively when I'm watching videos. The dots don't stay in the same place; and also they are not there all the time. Also, sometimes my animations (applications opening, windows being dragged, etc.) will glitch as well. Again, this is not a continual thing; it just happens variously throughout my day. MBP Model A1212, OS X 10.6.8, 2.33 Ghz 3GB RAM.

Did the original songs that do not appear on the car player play in the Music app on the iPod? Sometimes glitches happen and they do not. Also, If y ohave a 5G iPod/iOS 7, purchase songs will show with an cloud icon by them if they are not downloaded if Shall All is turned on in Settings>iTunes and App Store

My Mac keeps crashing (whole system) when I'm watching videos with Firefox, any idea why?

Ok so I got a new mac and as usual install firefox which is my favorite browser, suddenly my computer started crashing, not just firefox the whole system froze and I had to reboot to make it work again, I didn't know what was happening until I noticed that said crashes happen when I was watching videos on firefox, I tried to use chrome and the issue was gone. So anyone has any idea why this is happening? I really would love to start using firefox again!

Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.
If this does not fix the issue, you may need to reinstall Adobe Flash Player on your computer.

Same problem on my ipad mini, running ios 6.0.2.
A bit more info:
-tried using YouTube in Safari on another ipad. Worked fine.
Tried reboot (sleep + home buttons for 15 seconds). Didn't fix.
-tried logging out of my YouTube account, thinking the problem was tied to my settings. Didn't fix.
-tried uninstalling all apps I downloaded since the last time YouTube worked properly. Didn't fix.
-tried watching a video in desktop mode. Can tap video screen to bring up pause okay in that mode.
There are work arounds, but the thing I want to know is why YouTube doesn't work in Safari as of a couple of days ago, and is it indicative of another more serious problem with my ipad.

When trying to watch videos on YouTube and other sites the video screen is completely green.

When trying to watch videos on various websites including YouTube, the video screen is completely green. I can hear the audio, but no visual. This does not happen with every video, but it is fairly common for me. When I try to watch the same videos with Internet Explorer they work fine. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Last week

If your temps are back to normal then the only thing that I would do is to completely uninstall the Avast software. See Thomas Reed's excellent Mac Malware Guide and pay particular attention to the "Do I need a/v software" section. 99% of the time, you don't and Mr. Reed only suggests the use of two av apps.

Video .f4v very slow

Hello:
I'm having problems playing f4v video is very slow. The size is 100 MB and resolution 1280x720. When I play out of Flash it reproduces well.
I need to play in Desktop application not over Internet.
What I'm doing bad? Is there anywhere to play well or wich is the better option to do it?
thank you very much.
This is my code:
import flash.net.NetConnection;
import flash.net.NetStream;
import flash.media.Video;
import flash.events.AsyncErrorEvent;
//fullscreen
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
var conexion:NetConnection= new NetConnection();
conexion.connect(null);
var display:NetStream = new NetStream(conexion);
display.play("videos/ocioelecer.f4v");
var video:Video = new Video(1280,720);
video.attachNetStream(display);
addChild(video);
display.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, noshow);
function noshow(event:AsyncErrorEvent):void{
//no show error
display.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, statusHandler);
function statusHandler(event:NetStatusEvent):void
    switch (event.info.code)
        case "NetStream.Play.Start":
            trace("Start [" + display.time.toFixed(3) + " seconds]");
            break;
        case "NetStream.Play.Stop":
        //End video
                        trace("Stop [" + display.time.toFixed(3) + " seconds]");
        (root.loaderInfo.loader.root as Object).removeSWF();
            break;

100MB played locally is nothing. Most HDs have burst cache which can load up to 200MB instantly off disk. You shouldn't even need to (but might want to on a really 'value/green' rated drive) set the buffer to require 1 second of data before playing (bufferTime = 1).
Are you using any kind of integrated graphics, like using a Z-esque Intel chipset with Intel 2000/3000/4000 graphics? Sometimes people over-estimate how well their built in hardware decoders perform.
You always want to add Event listeners before you invoke a method that uses events. In your code you're adding listeners AFTER invoking a 'play(...)' method. Just for best practice, run the load(...) last.
Lastly is the video available for inspection? 100MB for 10 seconds is 10MB/s, which is really only required in excessively high quality rendering with a huge gaumet with high motion. 9mbit is average full quality 720p (which is 1.25MB/s). You may have your bitrate set too high as moccamaximum mentioned if you are not in that video situation or striving for lossless video in ultra high motion.

ITunes sync is very slow?

iTunes sync is very slow with several minutes of the spinning color dot. Usually happens during the last step (7) of the sync. I then discover that even though I marked to sync all photos from Aperture file, photos are not synced. iTunes seems to be getting more and more of a problem. Any thoughts?

After an update or installation, your MBP may take some time to index its files. Give it some time - but if you don't see any improvement, post here - you'll get an answer!

When I'm watching a movie on itunes, the video keeps messing up. How do I fix this?

I'm trying to watch a movie on my itunes. My ipod isn't plugged in or anything, just itunes. But when it plays, the picture keeps freezing. The audio continues, but the scene just freezes and after a few seconds it catches up with the audio and it does this every other second. The video works perfectly on my ipod touch (but I would like to watch it on a much bigger screen, my laptop) and the video also works fine on QuickTime Player (QuickTime won't go full-screen for me for some reason) so nothing could have gone wrong with the download. The movie's in HD so that may be it. If so, is it possible to watch it in a lower quality so as to avoid constant freezing?

i Founfd this exact behaviour with 1080p mivies on my machine. I redownloaded as 720p and all was fine. I think my computer is getting a little dated.
If this is true for you then Select Preferences, Store and When downloading High Definition videos, prefer and select 720p. Then red donload form the Purchased link under Quick Links in iTunes Store
