Why does quicktime stop when i'm watching streaming video?

I've been using quicktime rather than the flip4mac plugin to watch my MLB-TV subscription in fullscreen mode. Everything works fine for about 9-10 minutes and then the video stops and starts over as if the file is done playing even though it is a live baseball game. Is there a reason for this that any of you can help me with? If i just refresh the MLB page it starts working again but it is a pretty annoying problem. Would upgrading to Quicktime Pro address this at all? thanks

That's tough. MLB-TV is a pay service so not everyone can go there to figure the problem out on that particular site. Does anyone have any ideas as to sites that would have a similar live streaming feed yet is free so i can post a link and have people see if they are having better luck?

Why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)

why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)?

Hello again @st3lla,
I can understand the fear of messing up a computer when I first started seriously working on computers back in the early 90's I had to format and re-install my operating system twice a day for quite a while before I figured out a very important step (at least important for me), and that was after I made a change to my computer to restart it. This way if I messed something up I only had to undo one thing and not 50 because I went wild on it. lol
Anyways, do not be afraid of your computer all you need to do is learn that step, how to keep your personal items backed up and then of course how to re-install your computer back to factory and you can always start over with a fresh build.
On to your questions:
Q - What are the steps to ensure that all HP updates are done.
A - Simply review the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8) and it will guide you through the process.
Q - What are the steps to ensure that all Windows updates are done?
A - Simply review the Microsoft Support document: Windows Update: Frequently Asked Questions and again you will find answers to this question. (***Note: Do not worry if the document refers to Windows 8.1 it is only an upgraded version of Windows 8 and the steps are the same)
I am also including a Windows Support document: Install the latest Windows 8.1 Update, which will guide you through how to install the Windows 8.1 update on your computer.
And finally, to put your mind at ease I am providing you with two important HP Support documents: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), and Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), which will provide you with all the instructions you need to backup your personal files so you do not loose them if you ever do mess up the computer, as well as provide you with instructions on how to put your computer back to how it came from the factory.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you once again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
Also be sure to mark my post as “Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others who face the same challenge find the same solution.

Why does playback stop when my screen goes to sleep?

Hi guys,
I have a mid-2010 MBP with MAC OS X 10.7.3 and itunes10.5.3 (3).
I've started to get this strange issue. When monitor goes to sleep, itunes playback stops.
I tray to change enervy saver option and I did this,
- computer sleep after 3h
- monitor sleep after one minute.
- itunes plays music
After one minute, monitor goes to sleep and so does itunes, why this is happening to me ?!?!?
This thing makes me crasy, since with other program playback (see VLC) I don't get this.
Please somebody help me in undestanding and solving this!!!
Thanks
Riccardo

The problem is that in lion "monitor sleep" means HDMI sleep too. So when you're listening to music with HDMI when your monitor goes to sleep, so it does your HDMI and audio through it!!
That's really non sense

Why does play stop when I close the Podcasts app - IOS 6

Whenever I leave the Podcasts app to answer an email, text, open Safari, etc., the podcast stops playing. This effectively stops me from using any other application on my phone, unless I want to also stop listening to the podcast. It won't continue playing in the background like the Music app did. Of course, this is an IOS 6 issue.
Ridiculous!!!
Am I missing something here?

I had the same problem the first night and my head almost exploded as playing podcasts is what my iphone is doing 95% of the time. I was also experiencing a lack of control not being able to jump back or ahead which was maddening. However, the next morning, after syncing the phone with my iTunes (on a MacBook Pro) all of this functionality was there, including the ability to have the podcasts continue when exiting the app and the ability to control them with an inline remote on my earbuds.
Hopefully, this problem has already resolved itself for you. Unfortunately, it is my understanding that there still is no option for playlists at this time.

Why does Quicktime freeze when opening .movs?

For the past few months, I have experienced intermittent screen "blackouts"; essentially the screen goes black as if the computer has gone into sleep mode (while still working in a given program) but there is nothing I can do but a hard shutdown to exit this state. Recently, both Quicktime and VLC have stopped working properly; I've discovered that Quicktime will open .AVI files, but freezes when opening .mov files. VLC will open neither. Both programs work fine when working with audio files. I have updated my mac's graphic drivers (to the best of my knowledge) and have worked around various preferences (open GL video output in VLC for instance) to no avail. My only remaining theory is a corrupt .mov codec file, or a compounding issue stemming from the initial screen blackouts (which I've discovered could be an actual hardware problem with mac pros sold around 2010..), but I feel it's time to outsource for some new solutions. I'm still running Snow Leopard 10.6.8; 2.66 GHz Intel core i7; 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3; MacBook Pro from 2010. Any help with this issue is greatly appreciated, as I've researched for hours and have yet to find a solution or even a potential cause for these issues.

Why does Playback stop when I have an external MIDI channel?

I finally have to try to sync up external gear with Mainstage 2.2.2. This time it's sending midi clock to an Akai MPK25. I set up the external midi instrument channel, set the channel's midi out to port 1 on the Akai, set the Akai to external clock. The Akai seems to pick up the tempo (mostly) but my Playback instances that start with Play action cut out after about 1 measure (yes they're set to Loop).
Doesn't mater which instance. The clock keeps going but there's a substantial lag to the transport controls. After a few seconds I can retrigger the Playback that stopped and then it loops as it should.
As soon as I delete the external midi strip, everything is back to normal. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it fixable? Maybe an Akai thing?
I've wrestled with MS to get it gig-worthy for a year and some new bug always seems to pop up.

Why does iust stop when installing mt.lion it says paused

will some one answer this quiston someone from apple cause been try ing to install for more than a week iknow iam not all that comupter savy but iam disabled had 8stroks 10 heart atts but not like thisneed help .

Best bet is inquire at http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact.html?form=account
If I remember correctly, the download isn't complete. You'll have to go back to the Mac Apple Store, log in, and click on the Purchases tab. Once there, you should be able to resume the download. Do note, when successful, the installer app will run. I strongly recommend quitting the installer app, saving a copy to safe place, and then relaunching the downloaded one, which resides in /Applications. If you run the installer w/o saving a copy, you'll be forced to download it again, wasting resouces (time, bandwidth, and electricity) if you have to reinstall or use the recovery system, since the ill-designed installer (just like Lion's) blows itself away during the installation process.

Why does mouse stop when pressing ctrl or shift

When using an 8175 controller and Windwos NT 4, the mouse will disappear and not come back if I use the shift key or the control key.

Hello,
I can't say that I have seen this issue before, but I would make sure that you have the correct drivers for your mouse, if it requires any. Some 3rd party mice need their own driver. Also make sure that there isn't a program that enables extra mouse features running that might be causing this behavior. Have you tried different mice? (PS/2, USB, etc) You might also want to upgrade to the latest version of the service pack for NT, I believe the most current is 6,

Why does Safari crash when I click on the video ads in the Apple site?

My iMac is two weeks old. When I launch the Apple site, Safari crashes when I click on the iPhone ad or the pc/mac ads within the Apple site. Is this a Quicktime error or a problem with Safari? I can watch videos within Google but not the Apple site. Safari also crashes when I try to open the Mac-OSX icon in my dock.
Please advise!

jsbsf, have you run Software Update to update any Apple software? Updated the Flash Player plugin? Java and JavaScript enabled?

Why does quiktime freeze when i try to play video?

I just reformatted my computer and reinstalled windows xp pro...before i had no problem with itunes or quicktime...but now whenever i try to play video through itunes it will freeze and i have to ctrlaltdelete and then cancel...then itunes will close down...when i try to open a video through quicktime the program freezes so i do the ctrlaltdelete then cancel and this time quicktime will play audio but no video...PLEASE HELP!!! i am going crazy, all drivers are installed and updated, i tried to repair and reinstall itunes and quicktime with no success

I would take a look at the video card driver. The lastest driver for a video card doesn't always mean it is going to be the best one for it or even work without causing problems.
Example, recently when going to microsoft's OS updates, there were a few updates needed, most security related, one was for the secondary monitor's video card. Well after they were installed, the computer would keep re-starting on its own.
Well the last change made was updating the video card driver. So I rolled it back in Device Manager, and that solved the problem. This is why I think it is foolish to have a windows computer setup to automatically update.
The problem your having is difficult to diagnose, more than likely a driver issue. It is not QT because that is only a program.
Hardware not configured properly will definately cause a freeze when playing mulimedia. Mostly if the jumpers are not setup correctly with master/slave for drives and in the BIOS.
Why was the OS XP pro reinstalled?

Why does Safari crashes every time Im watching a video online after 1hr ?

Every time I'm watching a netflix or any online video safari crashes - it happens about 1-2 hours into the video. I get a problem pop up box, and have sent the reports.

Have you looked at Safari and internet settings for auto disconnect times? Not sure with apple - but on some systems it means you have not "sent" anything so it disconnects.
