IPhone 4s :: Facebook Videos Won't Play Without WiFi
Aug 30, 2014
When I am on Facebook it seems that if I am connected to wifi, Facebook videos will play but if I am just using my 3G connection the video will have a spinning white circle indicating the video is loading but then I have a message pop up that says "check the strength of your internet connection and try again." Â
It is only Facebook that I have this problem with, YouTube and any videos played over safari I have no issues playing.Â
I have tried deleting and reinstalling Facebook, turning auto play on and off, making sure that I have it set so Facebook is about to use my 3G, I don't know what else to do!Â
When I am on Facebook on my iPhone 6 Plus, the audio on some videos works and others are silent, not matter how high I have my volume set. How do I get the volume on all videos to play?
Tried Facebook application, tried Facebook mobile and both gave me the same error.
Error
File cannot be displayed or played.
It also gave me the option to play with QuickPic which also gave me another error:
Cannot play video
Sorry, this video cannot be played.
I tried it on several videos one of which I uploaded from my phone and my wife could play it fine with her Thunderbolt and was quick to say it was because her phone was better than mine.
i have nokia x2-01,when i play any video or even song,its shows "not enough memory"although my memory card and phone memory both has enough memory,i have restored my phone as well as its memory card?
Can I play videos I captured on my iphone *anywhere* other than my iphone or my own home mac (or an ATV which I don't own)?
ie, I've taken movies of my students at a school function, and want to be able to play them in front of the class over the projector screen (which is attached to a macbook). This seems like a trivial action, but I can't figure it out!
Info: iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8), i5 with Thunderbolt
My new 4S will not stream video to my tv. I am using a HDMI dock. My other iPhone 4 works perfectly. The new 4S works for a minute then video starts to scramble picture and then stops. Looks like it should work says "sending video to TV". Also my new iPad 3 has the same problem. I've checked and double checked my system and everything is fine. I can't figure it out. So sent new 4S in for replacement. New refurbished unit does not work either.
So recently I have been facing problems playing videos on my iPhone 5s, be it Facebook, Tumblr, Twitter or Youtube. It's been about 2 days and before that everything was fine.
The reason I say its my iPhone is because my laptop works fine with YouTube therefore my router is fine too. It's just my iPhone that's facing problems. I saw before that maybe I didn't have enough space, but I have 2GB on my iCloud and 3GB on my phone so that's not an issue. Everything else loads perfectly like web pages and can surf the Internet but videos and loading pictures on Twitter (with 3G) isn't working at all! Â
I Can't even play them using 3G/4G so either its a software issue (doubt it because it was working before too) or some hardware issue.Â
Just as a summary because I know ive rambled a bit:Wont play videos on Youtube or Tumblr using WiFi and Cellulartwitter wont load images using 3GÂ
Normally when someone sends me a message with a short video attached to it, I could play in on my iPhone 5.(iOS 7.1.2) Now when I start to play one, I get the play arrow icon with a line across it, which signifies that it's not going to play the video.
Suddenly today my iPhone don't play any kind of video and after I try, becomes slower, can this be a virus? what can I do? I did not drop my phone or something like that .. That could damage it, so what could be??
Sometimes I'll visit a website and I'll click a link to a video and it'll play in Quicktime on my iPhone. Are these video files a special format or something? Do I need to edit mime settings? I've tried hosting .mp4 and .3gp files but they won't open in quicktime on the iPhone.Anyone steer me in the right directions?
I downloaded videos from my iphone to my laptop which runs on windows xp. But the videos won't play properly on my laptop - they play in some sort of slow motion.
When I watch Videos, on YouTube, Facebook, News sites, etc, my iPhone 5 will play sound in the beginning then during the video, for some reason, it stops playing sound... The video continues, the sound does not. The only way to "fix" the problem is to close out of the video and rewatch the video. How do I fix it?
Whenever I play music or watch videos, there is no sound. But my phone makes sounds when ringing. Also whenever I turn up the volume, it says "Headphones" even though I'm not using my headphones.
if I try to play Pandora internet radio on my Samsung s5 smart phone my wifi has to be turned off, so I have to play it using my data, can I set my phone to play Pandora while connected to wifi?
how I can block my xperia wifi play buy my son a xperia play, but I require internte control access to, as I can block for q not connect to any wireless network.
For whatever reason I cannot play ANY VIDEOS whatsoever on my phone. I'm talking Google play movies, Netflix, vine, YouTube, browser vids, etc. I exchanged my phone twice for the same reason, and its still happening. Verizon insisted they've never heard of this issue before, but there is no way I'm that unlucky to have gotten three defective phones.
When i tried watching facebook videos there is a note flash player upgrade required...is there a free apps for this..coz when i tried tapping adobe flash player... there is a note saying sorry adobe flash player is not available from adobe.com for your device's operating system or browser.
