When watching videos on YouTube and other sites, the sound plays for a few seconds and then stops.

I've ensured that the sound is working by pressing the volume up/down buttons and by looking in System Preferences to check it's switched to Internal Speakers, and sound plays through iTunes, so I think it could be something to do with Safari. When I Quit Safari and reopen it the sound tends to work, but then goes off again.
Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome.
Thank you in advance.

  3. Install Adobe Flash Player.

  • I just updated and downloaded the new version of iTunes. I then downloaded some music and now the music won't play on my iPod or in my iTunes. The tracks play for a few seconds and then skip to the next track

    I just downloaded and updated the newest version of iTunes. After updating I downloaded some new music and synced the iPod. The music doesn't play. It'll play about 30 seconds of the song and then skip automatically to the next song. I restarted the iPod. I restored it. It still didn't work. Then I tried listening to the music from my laptop straight from iTunes...and it's still doing it.
    How do I fix it?

    I'm assuming the tracks that won't play copy/are displayed with exclamation marks. This happens if the files are no longer where iTunes expects to find them. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Does this happen with all videos?
    Do purchased songs play fine on your iPod?
    Does the sample video here (for the iPod) work?

  • Whenever i try to play a video on my iphone, it pauses literally every 2 seconds. i will hit the play button, the video will play for a few seconds and then it will pause again. what can i do to fix this?

    videos will play for a few seconds on my iphone then it pauses. i press play and it pauses again. why is it doing this? and this is for all videos: youtube vides, videos off the internet, videos ive downloaded from itunes

    I can understand this with videos you are streaming, i.e. maybe you have a slow data connection.
    Videos on your phone should not do this.  Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

  • Why do my speakers not play music? I know they work because when I go I change my ringtone all the sounds play. I am not a very happy costumer right now and would like an answer to my problem. Thanks.

    What happens when you play music? Do the hardware volume controls work when using the Music app?

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable       
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • When I try powering up my phone it stays on the logo screen for a few seconds then turn off, whats wrong with it?

    When I try to power up my iphone 4 32g, it will stay on the apple screen for a few seconds then turn off. even when I try connecting it to my computer it turns on for a few seconds then turns off. Whats wrong with it? and what do I do about it?

    Have you tried charging it with another known working USB sync cable?  After letting it sit to "charge" for at least 30 minutes, have you tried resetting the device by pressing and holding both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • Video only plays for a few seconds, then freezes

    The video, which I got from the apple website, plays fine in iTunes but once I upload it to the iPod it will only play for a few seconds before freezing and becoming nonresponsive. Is this a software problem? Anyone know of a solution? Thanks.

    Or you can follow these instructions.... (adopted from btabz)
    Here are more detailed instructions on how to go back to 1.0, espescially if you bought your iPod in the last couple of months and it came with 1.1.
    First, please download the older version of the iPod Updater here...
    http://appldnld.m7z.net/content.info.apple.com/iPod/ww/win/061-2225.20051128.PDW nw/iPodSetup.exe
    Now install that updater and restart your computer.
    Now open the iPod updater (Start-->all programs-->iPod and find the iPod updater you just installed
    Open the iPod Updater and connect your iPod. With that older version of the iPod updater you just installed, restore your iPod by clicking restore.
    The iPod will restore and go back to software version 1.0. Now reload everything back into iTunes.
    If you don't want to restore, see this...

  • I'm conecting my Ipad to the computer to charge and it shows the charging sing for a few seconds then says not charging, do I need to bring it in to get that fixed or is there something I can try to do on my own?

    I'm conecting my Ipad to the computer to charge and it shows the charging sign for a few seconds then says not charging, do I need to bring it in to get that fixed or is there something I can try to do on my own?

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.
