Why won't iBooks on iPhone 3Gs play video on "enhanced edition" book?

I recently downloaded Stephen King's "11/22/63" Enhanced Edition on iBooks for my iPhone 3Gs. The 13 minute film that comes with the download won't play at all. I'm running iOS 5 and my iBooks is 1.3.2

Hi, bgrieb.
Thank you for visitng Apple Support Communities.
This sounds like these shows are in a HD format and are not supported on the iPhone 3gs. I would recommend downloading the SD version of these shows and then sync these to your device.
iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device

Why won't my new iPhone 4 play most of my music?

I just got my phone last week and now most of my music isn't playing when it says it is?

Couple of things you could try. The first is force quitting the Music app: double-tap the home button, locate Music in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, finish by tapping the home button. Open Music and see if it works now. If not, you might want to try syncing all the music off your phone (by unchecking Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing), the sync it all back on.

Iphone 3gs playing videos

I have had an ongoing problem with youtube and transfering videos to my iphone, with or without using itunes, I have tried some of the video converters and youtube downloaders, but not one has really done what it clained to do, usally you have to buy a pro verison or something like that. So my question is, how can I put youtube vidoes on iphone? with a simple step by step process??

Unfortunatelly, yes. I attempted several times to do the restore. It goes right back to 4.3.5 regardless of the date of the restore I refer to
Uh yeah... this is the expected and correct way for it to work. Backups have never included the iOS version.
When restoring, iTunes always loads the current iOS version and then restores the users data and settings.

Why won't some of my songs play after upgrade to IOS5?

Why won't some of my songs play after upgrade to IOS5?

I'm confirming that after trying several other ideas, the steps outlined here by S.E.A. and Amelia P. worked perfectly. For those of you having problems with certain songs not playing, or the wrong song playing, follow their "unsynch" "resynch" process. A few notes:
Before starting, I was confident that iOS 5, iTunes 10.5, and Mac OS X 10.7.2 were all up-to-date and functioning correctly.
After selecting my Device in iTunes (an iPhone 4S in my case), then selecting the "Music" tab and unchecking "Sync Music", be sure that it actually Applies the new settings (force a synch to be sure).
After this step, most of the songs disappeared from my device (including all of the corrupted ones) but not all songs (perhaps it left those that I purchased directly on the device?). In any case, don't worry about these. Just re-check the boxes you unchecked and then be sure to force a synch again. It should take a while to complete if you've got a lot of music.
Perfection!

Rapoo Wireless keyboard E-6300 won't pair with iPhone 3GS

As the title says: Rapoo Wireless keyboard E-6300 won't pair with iPhone 3GS.
Any ideas?

my iphone 4 been paired with both a sandberg mini bluetooth keyboard and an imac keyboard key <pun>
is that I have to make sure it only paired with 1 device at the time or it will not work
but since it can pair with the appletv then I guess it's not that

Windows media files are not natively supported - have you had a look in the app store to see if there are any apps that support WMV files ?

Does anyone know why I cant Activate my Iphone 3gs?

Dpes anyone know why I cant activate my iphone 3gs,it says it cant be activated because the activation server is unavaliable

If the phone was previously unlocked by an unauthorized method, it was re-locked to its original carrier when you updated. It will now acivate and operate only with that carrier, using their SIM card.

IPhoto won't recognize my iPhone 3Gs. just says there's an apple iPhone, instead of the device name, and says there are no files to download, but there are 62 items on my phone... what's going on?

iPhoto won't recognize my iPhone 3Gs. just says there's an "apple iPhone" instead of the device name, and says there are no files to download, but there are 62 items on my phone... what's going on? as far as I can tell I have everything up to date and it's always worked in the past.

Have you already confirmed your Mac as a trusted device? Try this:
Lauch iTunes.
Connect the Phone/iPad
When it asks you to trust it, say yes.
Now try again to import.

Why doesn't apple tv appear when playing video in safari?

Hi Guys:
     I just bought an apple tv. I am able to use the mirroring function with no problem, and I can see the apple tv in the "Airplay" menu.
     But When i play a video in safari(mirroring turned off), I can not see my apple TV in the "AirPlay" menu.
      So my question is : why doesn't apple tv appear when playing video in safari?
Does the same thing happen to you guys??
btw, I just dont want to mirroring when play a video in safari, that's why i'm asking this question
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

Experiencing the same issue. Everything used to just work. I'm up to date on *everything* and it's all apple devices (airport extreme, appletv, 2 macbook pro lion, iphone4s, ipad).
My gut says it's the AppleTV since it happens from both laptops that have itunes.
Let me know if you find a fix.

Why won't my camera work in Facebook video call?

Have a new MacBook Pro running Mavericks. When I tried to use the video call feature in Facebook, it told me I didn;t have the necessary java to execute the install. I downloaded the file suggested online (Java for OS X 2014-001: How to re-enable the Apple-provided Java SE 6 web plug-in and Web Start features) and the install went through. However, when I try to make a call it connects, I can see the other person's video and hear her/him but my camera does not activate (No green light. Person being called can hear me, but no picture appears for them). FaceTime works fine. Skype works fine. Google+ Hangout asks me to give permission to use camera, but hangs up. I also tried to make a FB video call in Safari and that did not work either (same problem).

Because something is wrong.
You've done well determining that there is nothing wrong with your Mac or its Apple Software.

Anybody know why my Sony Vaio S series won't recognise my iPhone 3GS ?

I just bought a Sony Vaio S with Intel i5 chip, however when i plug in my iPhone 3GS absolutely nothing happens. The phone doesn't even charge - I've checked the cable with my old Dell and it works . I've downloaded the latest iTunes and can't seem to work out why I'm getting zilch from the laptop? I've tried all 3 USBs on the thing but still no good.
I'm pretty tech-stupid but would appreciate any help .Thanks

Skype won't install on iPhone 3GS

Hello, Skype for iPhone won't install on my 3GS -- I am using iOS 6.1.6. I downloaded it a week ago from the App Store and it gave me an option to install an earlier version for my device. I had to restore it today and now it says that Skype isn't compatiable with my device and to upgrade to iOS 7! I'm not forking out €500 for a new iPhone that I don't want. If they'll take shirt buttons, then it's a different story.Can someone please help? ~ Random Person

This appears to be a restriction on the Apple AppStore:If you are attempting to download the app for the first time, the App Store will not offer the download of an older version. You must already own the app for the older version to be offered. Workaround:If you do not already own the app, one workaround is to purchase/download the app from the iTunes Store on a Mac or PC using the same Apple ID you are using on your iOS device. The app will then be associated with your account and you should then be offered an older version if you attempt to download the app again on the iOS device. copied from: http://community.skype.com/t5/iOS-iPhone-and-iPad/I-need-skype-4-17/m-p/3412951#M29197

Feedly app won't launch on iphone 3GS

Just downloaded the new Feedly app which is supposed to work and it won't even launch. What do I need to do to get it to work? I have an iphone 3GS with an IOS 4.3. Yes, I know it is outdated, but have been told that upgrading will make the iphone slower and unusable.

Whatever "guys at the apple store" you talked to don't know what they're talkig about. There are many millions of people runiing iOS 6.1.3 on the 3GS with no slowdown or problems.
you only have 8 to start with
"8" what?? The 3GS has 250 MB RAM and the version of iOS 6.3.1 for the 3GS was designed for that.
Is your phone jailbroken?
