Why doesn't a 3gp file play on ipad2?

Had a video from an iPhone sent to my email and when I open it I get audio only no video on both my Mac (os) & ipad2. Why no video?

3gp is a av container, not a codec.
It can contain different video codecs.
Apparently, the one used is not natively played by the iPad.
You can download an alternate player(I like avplayerhd) on the iPad and see if you can play it or download it to a computer and convert it.
I like handbrake for that.

Why doesn't my pdf files that are on my iPad show up on my iMac or mac book pro

Why doesn't my pdf files that are on my ipad show up on my imac or macbook?

Have you copied them from your iPad ? If you are using the 'sync collections' setting then that doesn't copy items between devices/computers, all it does is if you move a book/PDF into a collection on one device/computer then if that book/PDF is also on your other device(s)/computer(s) then it will be moved into the same collection on them.
If you connect the iPad to the computer that you sync it to and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases then it should copy them over to your Mac's iTunes (that should copy PDFs and epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just actual ibooks) - in the iBooks app on your Mac you might then need to do File > Move Books From iTunes to move them over to it.

Why doesn't my imbedded video play on iPad?

Why doesn't my imbedded video play on iPad?

Is it running flash? Because the iPad 2 does not run flash. Or it could be a bug in the embeded video. Run the debugger and see if that helps. Good luck :-)

Why don't some audio files play back in enhanced iBook?

I recently bought an enhanced iBook in iTunes for my iPad and most of the audio files play. A few do not when I click on them. The player goes blank (disappears) and nothing happens. Does anyone have a solution?

In iTunes, select all the songs/files you want to stay where they are.
Right click - get info.
Tick *Remember position* and set it Yes.
You can do individual songs or a bunch at once.

Why doesn't my converted video play in iTunes but on my iPad?

Hey folks,
I most recently converted my AVI DVD Backups to comply with my iTunes / iPad / iPhone environment.
One of the TV Shows ("Arrested Development" if anyone cares) shows some kind of awkward behavior:
Device
Sync / add to Library
Plays
iTunes
yes
no
iPhone 4
yes
yes
iPad 1
yes
yes
The files doesn't seem to be corrupt, as they play perfectly fine on VLC, but when I launch them in iTunes the Video window opens in the correct size, but remains black. Even if I stream the movies through home sharing to other iOS devices it plays fine. I used iFlicks to convert the files.
File metrics:
Thanks

please guys, any Idea?

Why won't an MP3 file play on a bluetooth boombox?

Hello, I tried to pair a boombox with a new Macbook Pro (for the first time) with the boombox close to the computer & Bluetooth turned on. The proper words appear on the boombox display and the necessary blue light is on. Running OS 10.9.4, in Bluetooth Preferences the boombox model # appears as a Bluetooth device & is connected. When I "Send File to Device..." using Bluetooth File Exchange v.4.2.6 (4.2.6f1), the MP3 file on my Mac doesn't play on the boombox. Sony told me that the bluetooth version of the boombox is 3.0 and it will connect only to a device having the same bluetooth profile.
Their specs. on the Operating Instructions say: The audio formats supported by this unit are as follows: MP3: file extension “.mp3”; WMA: file extension “.wma”.
Compatibility requirements for the devices are as follows. Before using with this unit, check that your device meets the requirements.
Devices must conform to BLUETOOTH Standard version 3.0.Devices must support A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) and AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile). NFC capability (required only when using the NFC pairing function of the unit).
Can anyone kindly suggest how to troubleshoot this issue?
Also, could I ever play more than one music file (on the computer) at a time through the boombox? Thank you so much for any ideas.

Hi photosr4me! If it did not work after pairing, you need to contact Apple Support here for assistance on how to setup an audio system as speakers for your Macbook Pro.

Maybe its time to "return to the source". If you can arrange it, have the .mov file provided to you examined by QT 7.0X within the Apple OS. The .mov is a wrapper and it is possible that the video format(codec etc) within the wrapper is something unreadable by QT under windows OS.

Why won't my .mov files play?

Hello, I need to convert .mov files into another format, but I can't even play the .mov files on my Mac w/Snow Leopard and Quicktime 10.0. Why is that? What do I need to at least play them back on my MacBook Pro? Thank you, gharaldson

There's a number of reasons that they may not play.
.MOV is what's called a "container". Namely it stores audio and video streams in any format and then includes descriptive information about that data to help select the software (codecs) required to play them back.
A QuickTime movie won't playback if it's: a.) not actually a quicktime movie, b.) a damaged file (data is corrupted), or c.) the content was encoded using a method that isn't part of standard quicktime.
Generally speaking, if you use Quicktime or Apple applications, then they will encode audio and video using one of the mechanisms built into Quicktime. However, it's possible to create valid Quicktime files using other software that uses encoding mechanisms not in the standard Quicktime bundle. Software like FFMPEG and VLC can be used to produce such files, for example.
Do you have an error that indicates the nature of the problem?

Why doesn't Search across files work in web dynpro perspective?

Hello,
I rely on the Files Tab of the Search popup a lot to search for occurence of text in files.
So far, I've been doing all J2EE development and the Search functionality works great in the J2EE perspective. What I do is select the Development Component (DC) in Package explorer view and then bring up the search box. On there I select File tab and the "selected resource" radio button. I leave the File Name patterns as "*" so it'll search all files.
However, when I try that in the Web Dynpro perspective it doesn't find any hits. I know I can do a search across the whole workspace but that'll return too many hits in other DCs.
Anyone have an idea how to do this in Web Dynpro perspective?

I remember that I once opened an OSS message on this issue. What version has your IDE?

Why doesn't my .AVi file import into iMovies

I cannot get iMovies to recognise my .AVI files (from my Samsung ST50).
I can download the files from my camera to my hard drive (so the computer recognises them), and I can play them via Quicktime, so I know they work. But I can't import the .AVI files into iMovies. It seems to process the video when I go to 'Import'>'Movies'...- then nothing appears. I just get a 'No Matching Video' message in the event folder.
However my previous camera (an old Pentax Optio S40) produced .AVI's which I can import into iMovies. Are all AVI's not the same? Or is it a setting in my new camera (I'm not too tech savvy!).

Why doesn't my mp4 video play from an HTML5 Course?

I have an online course that consists of 6 slides. 4 of those slides are for delivering streaming video from a Flash Streaming Server. Per our LMS Solution Provider, I have modified the streaming path names so they point to the mp4 files on the streaming server. I have the same online course that is published as HTML/SWF to SCORM2004. That version of the course has the video place holders pointing to the same directories on the Flash Streaming Server, except the stream path/name points to the FLV video files. That course plays just fine. I have a Flash Streaming Server test tool from my LMS Provider that I can use to test the mp4 video files to ensure they stream properly. I have tested the stream names that point to the mp4 files using that tool and the video file stream just fine. When I launch the same course from our LMS using the content that was published in Captivate 6 as HTML5 to AICC specs, the course launches but the mp4 video files do not play. Keep in mind that they are set to stream and not download. I can advance thru the slides using a playbar, but the video will not play. Is anyone else having this kind of problem? Any ideas on where I can look?

I have tried Google Chrome ver. 26.0.1410.43 m. I have also tried in IE 9. It is my understanding that these are HTML5 compliant. Since posting this question, I saw some additional information in a different area of the Adobe Forums that suggests that it is not possible to stream MP4 Video from an Adobe Captivate 6 course that is published to HTML5. It was not real clear in the way it was stated, but it seemed to imply that you can embed MP4 video but you cannot stream MP4 video using RTMP from a Flash Streaming Server. I am now trying to get someone to confirm that statement from the Adobe Captivate 6 Team. I assume that the Captivate 6 Team monitors this forum.

Why doesn't my embedded movie play when I export s a video?

I am trying to export my project in keynote 09. However, the embedded movie does not export and when the movie plays it gets stuck on that slide where the embedded movie is. I even tried opening the file with 08 ( I shouldn't have upgraded) and it can't be opened. Any advice?
Thanks!
OS 10.8.4

From my experience, most Windows users do not have QuickTime player installed on their machines.
The alternative is to provide PDF or PowerPoint, but the software for these are not installed by default, and of course Keynote is a Mac only application, so you are very limited in how they will easily view your presentation.
I always provide Windows Media Video files for PC users, this requires separate software to be purchased to convert Quicktime to WMV. Fip 4 Mac Studio
I have had on occaision to supply clients with JPEG image files as this was the only method they could view the presentation as they were prevented from installing additional software.
You will need to ask your users if they are prepared to install additional software and if they want video or a slide presentation.

Dumb question. Why won't my audio files play in AE?

Suddenly, my audio files will not play in AE.

You'll need to elaborate -- that's not much to go on.
What KIND of audio files are these? Are they a different kind than you've used previously?
Since AE has a tough time playing just about anything, please describe in detail how you're playing them.
And it wouldn't hurt to know what has changed on your machine before you ran into this problem.

Why doesn't QT with MPEG2 play audio from iDVD VOBs

I'm trying to re-edit a friend's DVD so I only have the VOB files (created from a PC). I read I need the MPEG2 component for QT so off I go and buy it. Waste of time because ... it doesn't pick up the audio. So I download MPEG Streamclip (excellent product which does convert VOBs to DV etc /with/ audio). Then I read the fine print that the QT MPEG2 component doesn't handle all audio encodings. So just out of curiosity I read in a VOB created by iDVD in QT - again, no audio. So just what audio encoding does iDVD use - just curious ...
PowerMac G5 Dual 2.7GHz 4 MB 800 MB Mac OS X (10.4.6) PowerBook G4

and yes, MPEG Clipstream worked fine, I exported the VOB as DV files, and I'm now editing away in iMovie. I guess I didn't need the QT MPEG-2 after all.
If you meant MPEG Streamclip, then you DID need the AppleMPEG2 Playback component. MPEG Streamclip will not convert MPEG2 files without it!
from http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
REQUIREMENTS
For MPEG-2 playback and conversion, you need the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component. You can buy it from Apple (www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2).
Aslo regarding the Apple MPEG2 Playback component. From http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/faq.html
What audio formats does the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component support?
The QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component supports the playback of MPEG-2 files (.mpg, .mpeg, .vob, .vro, .m2v, .m2a, and .m2s) that contain MPEG audio layers I or II. The MPEG-2 Playback Component does not support audio playback for MPEG-2 files containing PCM, DTS or AC3 audio.
iDVD uses PCM audio if I'm not mistaken......funny huh?
