Why can't I play a video from FB on my IPad?

When I try to play a video clip from Facebook, it goes to pause after only a few seconds.  Why?

Are you using the Facebook App or Facebook via Safari?

    Do you have the latest Adobe Flash Player installed? If not then go to the Adobe site and download and install it.

  • Why can I not import the videos from my iPhone 4 onto my desktop (Windows Vista)? When I plug in it imports the photos without a problem but it doesn't seem to import the videos.

    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • Why can't I play any videos on Firefox Mobile?

    Why can't I play any videos on Firefox Mobile? I know that currently Firefox Mobile does not support Flash, but mp4 videos will not play either.

    I fixed it by rebooting, now everything works. Thanks Demo, for your help.

  • Why can't I plays vimeo videos on iPad?

    Why can't I play vimeo email videos on iPad? They work on my iPhone

    Thank you Phil0124, I think that is the problem.
    I don't understand computers etc very well but had a suspicion that this was the problem I just needed to hear it from someone who knew what they were talking about. 
    I am going to contact my internet provider. Thank you.

  • Why won't ATV play HD video from iMovie?

    This question incorporates two different systems (ATV and Imovie) but I thought I would start here.
    ATV will play HD movies rented through Itunes.  Why then can I not Save/Export movies from Imovie in HD and view them on ATV?
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Ehren

    You can export HD movies from these applications for the Apple TV, it's just that they need to be in a specific format. Rudegar has provided those specifics and I proposed options that are available in both iMovie and Final cut that can meet them, the export settings will produce the same specification of file that you can purchase from the iTunes store.
    If you are asking why the Apple TV doesn't support all the types of files iMovie and final cut can produce then there are a few reasons for that:
    Firstly the Apple TV has limited capabilities, it simply can't play the high end sort of stuff these editing applications can produce, to do that it would need much more processing power which would ultimately make the Apple TV more expensive and out of reach for the vast majority of its target base who simply want iTunes store quality content.
    Secondly, the editing software can produce content for many delivery platforms, iMovie and final cut are targeted at a much wider consumer than just people wanting to make video for the Apple TV, some want video on DVD, others on blu-ray, others may want to export it for windows users or just play it on their macs.
    Finally, not all export options are delivery formats, there are times when you want video in non delivery formats for further production, production formats are not designed to be used for delivery and in many cases simply aren't playable on any (consumer system).
    It's the job of the editor (in these type of applications) to make sure they are delivering the finished movie in the right format for what it will be used for. In the case of the Apple TV, that's share to iTunes and then choose the Apple TV option.

  • Why can't I play my videos on iPhone 6 without requiring an Internet connection?!?! This is absolutely FKSKFIEDJ absurd and apple better come up with a solution.

    Seriously, how much of a stupid iinconvenience is this? Why should I require a connection to play the videos I've recorded on my phone?

    Hi
    Could I ask a couple of questions please?
    It would almost seem from your description that the video is not completely or correctly recorded or that it is some how corrupted. From your description it appears that with the internet connection on - you are able to stream but not play it otherwise
    1. Is this just one affected video or is it happening with other videos as well?
    2. Any chance you can delete and re record the video and see if that solves the problem?

  • Why can't I see a video that is on my ipad in an explorer window of my pc?

    Why can't see a video that is on my ipad when i use explorer on my pc

    You cannot normally directly access the file system on an iPad (or any other iDevice) from the PC or Mac like to view a video or listen to music. You'll have to connect the iPad to the PC using iTunes and sync the video to the PC to view it on the PC.

  • Why can't I see streamed video from PC to IPad 1 on TV when using HDMI adapter but can watch videos stored on the iPad

    I can watch videos streamed from my PC to my IPad 1 on the iPad screen.
    I can watch videos on my TV which are stored on the Ipad using an HDMI adapter.
    I cannot watch videos streamed  from my PC to my Ipad on my TV using the HDMI adapter, I get sound but no picture although the picture shows on the Ipad screen.
    Can anyone tell me why this should be and whether there is a solution?

  • Why can't I play  .mpg videos?

    I am confused as to why mpg videos will not play on my Mac?

    Again, what am I missing? How are .mpg files not the right kind of videos when .mpg files are the ones being discussed?
    I was making a joke about p**n videos. There are innumerable video codecs out there and only a few of them have Mac versions. The authors don't care if Mac users can't view the video, because they don't care if anyone can view the video. They just want Windows users to download and install the codec and, more importantly, the virus that comes with it. Why make a Mac-compatibile codec when the true payload, the virus, won't work on a Mac?

  • Why can't I play VEVO videos with McTube Pro on my iPad?

    Until recently VEVO music videos would play fine on my iPad and iPhone 5 with McTube Pro. I only noticed this week that they won't play anymore besides the ones I have already saved to the cache.
    I get this error every time I try to access any VEVO video or channel.
    "Playback Failed. You do not have permission to access the requested resource."
    Since I have tried numerous times on two iOS devices and it doesn't work on either of them, I assume it's nothing to do with my devices specifically.
    The videos work on the YouTube app and YouTube itself, just not McTube Pro. I wouldn't mind so much if only YouTube didn't have so many ads, some that can't even be skipped.

    Thanks. 16 people and many more have this issue as well, so I have no doubt that it's not my iPad.
    I checked the app store and saw that they have now removed the paying feature, so it's an entirely free app now. I'm also told I have never downloaded this app despite having it on all my devices, so I suspect it is being treated as a new app after those updates. That would explain why some people ended up paying twice at first.
    I'm afraid that the issue won't ever be resolved now that they have stopped working on the "old" McTube Pro that, for many of us, still supports caching.

  • Why can't I select a video from my iPhoto library to send via email?

      I send a lot of photos and used to send videos but now I can't select a video like I do a photo in the library.    I have a newer hard drive and use OSX version 10.5.8 wihich I believe is Leopard.  I've updated all that is available.  Any suggestions?

    Can you directly redowload it directly to the iPod by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
