Why won't my video button record?

Tapping the video's red circle icon just quickly highlights and then returns to previous state without recording.

Try closing the Camera app completely and see if you can record video when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

    Why won't iPad video open when emailed to Windows desktop?

    Hey there Ray_J,
    I understand that you want iTunes to be opening every time you connect your phone to your computer. You may wish to adjust this setting in your iTunes preferences to affect this behavior:
    Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically
    Prevent devices from automatically syncing with this iTunes library when a device is connected. To sync a device, click the Sync button when the device is connected.
    iTunes 12 for Mac: iTunes Devices preferences
    https://support.apple.com/kb/PH19595
    If this is unchecked, iTunes will open automatically when you connect an iOS device. Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,

  • Why won't my videos play? They start on the device that they are on, then stop and I get an error message...An error occured loading this content.

    Why won't my videos play? They start on the device that they are on, then stop and I get an error message...An error occured loading this content. This comes up on all of my computers. I reset the Apple TV to Factory Settings and still get the same message.

    Hi There,
    I had the same problem took me several hours to try and sort it out but nothing worked.
    I then went to the following apple link

    Follow everything to a T and you will get the use of your Itunes again.
    Hope this helps. Good luck (And remember to breath lol )

  • Why won't my lock button work?

    I went to lock my iPod and my lock button won't work. I can't even push it down, it's like stuck down in the hole but it won't pop back up. Everything works fine but I have to wait for it to auto-lock everytime I want to turn it off. Why won't the button pop back up?

    It looks like you have a hardware issue. I don't know why the button doesn't pop up, but You can enable assistive touch. Assistive touch gives you a virtual lock button, so that will solve you problem. You can enable it by going to Settings->General->Accessibillity->AssistiveTouch->On.

  • Why won't the video recorder work?

    I bought my 8G ipod nano a mere week ago, and whenever I try to record, the graphical lens opens and the little red light and timer come on, but the screen is black. It will even say it is recording, but I cannot see anything. If I then try to go back, the graphical lens closes and the ipod freezes and has to be reset.
    I just tried restoring it on a PC (it was previously set up on Mac) to see if anything would change. But alas, no success.
    Anyone know how to solve this one?

    Hi . I have the same problem as the 1st composer ,I followed all the trouble shooting steps and no joy , I have my nano 3days . Did you solve your problem & if so how ? Apple want me to commit to a payment of 147euro before they will accept it back to look the problem !

  • Why won't my video in my keynote presentation play in my iBook?

    I have created a keynote animation to import into my iBook. When viewed in Keynote the videos play automatically like they should. However, once place into the iBook and previewed on the iPad they appear as a black box that then changes to white. The rest of the animation works great it's just that the videos won't play. Does anyone have any idea why this might be?

    try sharing your Keynote to HTML and then dragging the resulting file to a page in iBooks.

  • Why won't these videos fit on a 120min 4.7Gb disc?

    There have been situations in which when I am using 120 min 4.7GB DVD+R discs, that iDVD tells me that the video/videos I insert onto a project exceeds the macimum duration of the disc. It doesn't make any sense when I drop a 1 hour and 30 min.,700mb .avi movie onto a project and it tells me that. Why is this happening?

    iDVD mpg-2 compresses everything. The size of your raw content in MB isn't significant - what IS significant is the running time in minutes. iDVD can put up to 60 minutes of content on a single-layer disc in 'Best Performance' encoding mode or up to 120 minutes ion the 'High Quality' of 'Professional Quality modes.
    BTW, 4.7 GB is the advertising capacity in decimal form; as far as a computer is concerned, the capacity is 4.37 GB.

  • Why won't my video clips open?

    As of about 2  weeks ago video clips emailed to me won't open, especially Utube clips but also clips on CNN,com,etc. The same urls in the same emails open and run perfectly on my wife's MacBook Air. so it must not be the sender or email but my Mac specifically.  I don't recall blocking anything or changing preferences.  All suggestions are welcomed.  Thanks. (PS, I logged in to Utube which didn't help.)

  • HT2729 Why won't certain videos (downloaded from iTunes) sync on my iPod?

    I have a new iPod Classic and it won't sync some of my videos. I've reset it. I've got everything checked. All files and videos play in my library. There all in the same location and files. Its  After syncing I get the "some videos were not synced because the format is not supported". All the vids were downloaded from iTunes Store. WTH? Can anyone think of a solution? What is wrong? 
    Thanks,
    WB

    Hey Willm700,
    Great question. iTunes defaults to downloading HD content when available, whereas your iPod classic is not compatible with HD playback. The solution would be to download the SD version of the content from your purchase history:
    iTunes: Sync purchased HD videos to iPod or iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4223
    The easiest way to put purchased videos onto your device is to download the videos from iTunes in the Cloud. This should make sure that you get the highest resolution video optimized for your specific device.
    Syncing video to iPhone 3G or earlier, iPod touch (1st or 2nd generation), iPod classic, iPod 5th generation, or iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation):
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Why won't my videos play in iTunes when I already downloaded them?

    I downloaded an episode to watch along with a few songs....they downloaded on my iPad and now they are showing up in my purchased but its only playing 30 seconds of the episode and the songs won't play at all. Can anyone help?

    iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store. Videos and tv shows that you've synced and/or downloaded to the iPad go into the Videos app :
    Songs that you've synced or downloaded go into the iPod or Music app (depending on which version of iOS you have)  :

  • Why won't Flash videos play in Facebook?

    I can't seem to get Flash videos to play in Facebook.  I hear sound, but just get a blank black screen where I would expect to see the video. Youtube videos work fine.
    If I browse to http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html I see the following:
    "Check if Flash Player is installed on your computer", it shows the following under Step 1:
    Congratulations, your computer has the latest Flash Player installed.
    Start playing games, listening to music, and watching videos!
    YOUR SYSTEM INFORMATION
    Your Flash Version
    12.0.0.44
    Your browser name
    Internet Explorer (I'm using IE 11)
    Your Operating System (OS)
    Windows (Windows 7) (I have a 64bit OS)
    I followed Stpes 2, 3, and 4, and even see the Flash video of a swaying tree on the page under Step 5, which makes me thing Flash is correctly installed yet I'm still unable to get videos to play on Facebook. 
    Troubleshooting steps I've taken:
    - Deleted %apphost%\flash and %apphost%\macromedia folders from my system
    - Uninstall/reinstall Adobe Flash
    - Reset Internet Explorer setting to default settings, cleared browsing history, and deleted temporary internet files
    - Confirmed under "Manage Add-Ons" that "Shockwave Flash Object" is enabled
    - Ensure clean Host and LMHost files
    I'd greatly appreciate other troubleshooting suggestions anyone else can provide.  Thank you.

    The problem is... not Flash Player.... it's Ie 11.
    Microsoft intentionally screwed up the "User-Agent Strings" that websites use to identify the browser and provide the proper content for it. If a website can ID it at all, it misidentifies it as either Gecko (Firefox) or Webkit (Safari), but since the full browser engine isnt there, IE then becomes an unidentifiable visitor.
    The pages can't recognize the browser, so they don't recognize any of the plugins, like Flash Player. So far, Microsoft has made NO indication that they have any plan to fix it soon.
    Microsoft's recommendation is to use Compatibility View for affected pages, and "pretend" you're using an different browser. Trouble with that is it has seen limited success at best, and you have to individually enable it for EVERY page that has problems.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

    Looks like you've added a subform (Subform1) to the form which is breaking your script. You need to add it to your script. ie: Subform1.name.rawValue rather than just name.rawValue. another option is to unwarp that subform.

  • Why won't the sound buttons work on my HP Pavilion g series?

    for some reason the sound buttons UP, DOWN and MUTE will not work on my laptop.  even when i plug in the headphones it does not work.  HELP!

     Hi,
    Try the following.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the notebook.
    Next, download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
    Launch Firefox and see if videos etc play Ok in this browser - if they do, close Firefox, open Internet Explorer and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component.  When done, restart Internet Explorer.
