Why do videos stop frequently when watching them on the ipad?

This requires pressing the arrow as the pause button keeps appearing....

It takes time to download a video - more time if you're using 3g, somewhat less time if you're using a faster WiFi connection.  When you push the play button, the player doesn't wait until the video has completely downloaded before it starts playing.  It plays faster than it downloads, so eventually it catches up and runs out of content to play until more has downloaded.  When this happens, it stops.  Next time this happens, just wait (and wait...) and eventually it will start on its own.  The longer you wait, the more you have in the 'buffer" and the fewer stops.

  • Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad? Anyone have a fix? Have also created a dropdown menu, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

    Why won't cells autopopulate when using numbers on the ipad as they will in excel? Anyone have a fix? I have also created a dropdown menu in excel, but that does not translate from excel to numbers either.

    Glad you got it sorted out.

  • Sorry no nothing about computers but can I transfer video films on my PC to my Ipad2 so that I can watch them on the IPad?

    I dont know a lot about computers so please go easy. I have videos stored on my Windows 7 PC. can they be transferred to my IPad2 so that I can watch them?

    I use a Mac so I don't know precisely how it's done on a Windows box. Nevertheless, you should be able to drag your video into iTunes' Movies section or Podcasts section at the top of the sidebar.
    Any video must be in a format acceptable to iTunes and your iPad. If they aren't, then you need to get a utility that can convert them. I'm not familar with Windows utilities but I'm sure there are many that will work.

  • Why does iTunes stop working when I click on the menu bar?

    Whenever I click the grey menu bar (artists, genre, videos, playlists, match, etc) iTunes stops working and Windows has a pop up that says it's closing. I tried updating to 11.4... but then itunes says it is missing a file or something like that and will not open period so I have to use a system restore to get it back..I;ve been enduring this without editng playlists and etc for a few months now. Please help? Thank you for any input.

  • Why my video stops for sometime while playing on vlc player

    Why my video stops for sometime while playing on vlc player?
    It started from last week. Whenever I play a video it stops for about 5-10 seconds and then continue playing. I have played mp4 and avi format.
    But unable to understand the reason behind it. If someone out here know the reason and also how to fix this issue, please lease let me know.

    Nope,
    But I just discovered that that it is actually not only the sound that stops working but rather the whole video that has a "hick-up" and then when it continues the sound is gone. If I fastforward/rewind then it seem like the player rocovers and play the stream correctly again.
    What are the Mp4 clip prefs you have used when converting?
    I am planning to try some other settings when converting to see if that makes any difference but I doubt it will help. I think we will have to wait for a "better" i.e. working Video Player for the iPod ...

  • I have rented and watched 4 movies which, though expired still appear in my video folder.  I cannot watch them, but my ipad shows 4 videos in the "about" tab and shows several gigs of video used.  How do I get rid of them and free up the memory?

    I need to find a way to delete itunes rented movies that still seem to remain on my ipad after being watched.  The ipad shows memory allocated to the video and counts them in the "about" tab of my settings.  I can't watch them and cannot seem to delete them from the ipad or during sync.

    Go in Settings. Video. Un click the Show all videos

  • I want to store movies on an SD disk, watch them on the way to Europe, then use the chip to record photos in my camera.  I can't get the iPad mini to recognize the videos I've recorded.

    I want to store movies on an SD disk, watch them on the way to Europe, then use the chip to record photos in my camera.  I can't get the iPad mini to recognize the videos I've recorded.

    I'm a bit lost - you first say
    "The only file(s) I can sometimes get it to recognize are the ones shot with a camera onto an SD card"
    then you say
    " If I take an unused SD card and record video with my camera, it will see, and import the file to the Photo app."
    In the first statement, aren't you using an SD card in the camera?  And what do you mean by "unused SD card"?    Cameras put their files in specific folders on a card, and your device only reads photos and video from those folders, not from anywhere else on the card.

  • Why my firefox stopped loading when I want to open a new tab? this will continue if I do not move the mouse. this also happen when I download.

    why my firefox stopped loading when I want to open a new tab? this will continue if I do not move the mouse. this is also happen when I download. if I does not move the mouse, the download process stops or stagnant ormanaged to download but not full

    hey, just to keep you updated - there is now a fix available for firefox 25, which should address the particular problem of pages not loading unless the mouse is moved.
    if you have downgraded to firefox 24 to work around the issue, please go to ''firefox > options > advanced > update'' and turn automatic updates back on. then go to ''firefox > help > about firefox'' which should trigger the update to firefox 25.0.1.
    <br>in case you need to download the setup file for firefox 25.0.1 separately you can do so from https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/channel/#firefox

  • All photos in portrait format are displayed blurred in the preview mode "fill" of the library. In all other modes e.g. "fit"or "1:2" the photos are sharp. How can I change this, so that the photos are still sharp when displaying them in the mode "fill"?

    All photos in portrait format are displayed blurred in the preview mode "fill" of the library. In all other modes e.g. "fit"or "1:2" the photos are sharp. How can I change this, so that the photos are still sharp when displaying them in the mode "fill"? My Lightroom release is 5.7.1.
    Thanking you in anticipation!

    I'd like to get all these '-1 suffix' files together with their associated Develop adjustments into one folder (if they aren't already) so I can see them in Grid view in the Library module, which I use as my basic starting point for everything else at this early stage of my Lightroom 'career'.
    To see what folder these are stored in, right-click on a photo and select "Go to Folder in Library".
    Advice: if you are going to use Lightroom effectively, you probably want to stop using folders as your method to create a grouping of photos that are already in Lightroom; there are plenty of built-in tools, such as keywords, collections, color labels, etc.
    I don't understand why the search on the entire catalog picked up apparently the same two file versions but also got the Develop adjustments when going to the relevant Folder didn't show the adjustment black squares against each image in Grid view nor were they there when the images were opened in the Develop module.  Perhaps if I understood this, I'd be a bit more confident of moving forward myself.
    These are most likely different versions of the same photo, in different folders. Lightroom stores the edits in its own catalog, and so it knows that one folder's photos have edits, and the other folder's photos do not have edits. Please understand that Lightroom is a database, it knows where the photos are at the time you import them (or add them to the catalog by synchronize), and then if you move things around in your operating system, Lightroom does not know anything about that and problems begin. Thus the advice to organize using Lightroom tools and methods and not operating system tools and methods.

  • When watching rented movie the picture keeps freezing, in about 30 seconds it plays again

    when watching rented movie the picture keeps freezing, in about 30 seconds it plays again

    I just started have this same/simmilar issue to.  Was there a solution to the original question?  I have 2 ATVs.  One works without issue, the other... kicks me out repeatedly... to the point where the content will load for about 3 sec before kicking me all the way out.  Tried all the trouble shooting options including: checking latest software update, reset, hard restart, and checking router download speed (over 50 Mbps on speedtest.net).  Should mention this occurs most frequently when downloading Netflix content, but the same issue occurs downloading other content like PBS.

  • I downloaded tv shows from iTunes onto my iPad, but when I plugged into my computer it erased them from the iPad and they didn't get transferred to the computer. How do I get them back?

    I downloaded tv shows from iTunes onto my iPad, but when I plugged into my computer it erased them from the iPad and they didn't get transferred to the computer. How do I get them back?

    First, is your iTunes account on your computer, the account you set up your iPad with and the one you sync regularly with?  If yes, just reconnect your iPad to your computer, via USB and open iTunes.  After your iPad syncs, and you see the message that it's OK to disconnect, don't disconnect.  Click once on the iPad from the left side of your iTunes screen.  This will open your iPad in iTunes.  You would then click on Videos and you'll see the TV shows you downloaded.  You can choose individual shows, or choose to sync all videos to your iPad.  After you've moved what you wanted back, click apply, then sync again and you should be fine.

  • Recently lost videos from my photo albums. It appears any video that wasn't uploaded directly to the ipad is now missing. They were definitely available prior to say two months ago. I've had the ipad since March. Any ideas why? Looking to reload manually

    Had current ipad since March. Recently videos (in photos app) that were able to be viewed are now missing. The commonality is that they were videos that were not uploaded directly to the ipad. Anything that I've uploaded since March is still accounted for. Just strange because I have viewed these videos since using this ipad. Only recently have they been "removed." WIll try to manually load them back, but any thoughts as to why? Thanks

    If the videos were not uploaded to the iPad - (and I'm never sure what that means to another user - synced from iTunes?)- and they were taken with the iPad itself, you will have to restore from a backup in order to recover the videos if they are really gone from the device.
    If they are purchased videos and they are in your iTunes library, sync them back to the iPad.
