How can I add videos to itunes?

I've been trying to add video files to itunes, either through drag and drop or adding from the file menu, but each time the video does not come up in itunes?

Thanks for the post. This was for downloaded youtube videos, I downloaded with Net Video Hunter and they were VLC files, so I guess not itunes supported. How can you download youtube files as MP4 files?

There are settings that you can set when the ipod is connected to itunes that you can set on how the tv shows and movies load onto the ipod.
1. Open itunes and connect the ipod to the computer.
2. Find one of the tv shows that are not moving over to the ipod and double click on it to play it. If the computer is not authorized to play the content, a window will open for you to put in your account name and password to authorize the computer.
if your ipod is set to automatically sync with itunes, follow these steps
3. once the video or movie plays on the computer. Click on the ipod on the left hand side of itunes so that you see a summary page on the right side of itunes.
4. at the top of the summary page, you will see a row of tabbs, click ont he tv shows tab.
5. then select how you want the tv shows to load onto the ipod.
If your ipod is set to manually manage
3. drag and drop the tv shows or movies onto the ipod on the left side bar of itunes.

Can't add video to iTunes

I am new to iTunes, got an iPod expressly for having video. Using the "Add file to Library" method doesn't seem to do anything; I look for the title on both the Music and Video lists, and it's not there. I get no error messages. Is there a format requirement? Didn't work for .mpg, .avi, or .wmv. "Help" is no help, doesn't even specifically mention video. I am lost and frustrated. Anybody else with this problem who solved it? Thanks!

Most of the videos I add to iTunes go into the Movies folder. If you then change the categorisation tab from Movie to Music Video they will show under the music playlist rather than Movies.

Can't add video to new itunes

Hi, hope someone here can help me because im getting kind of fustrating by not been able to add videos on the new itues. I've got the new video i want to add to the library its on "MP4" format, but for some reason when i go to to the "Add File to Library" and look for my file i want to add, the video does not appear on my library, just wondering anyone had this problem before and can tell me how to fix it, or if theres a way to get your videos to the library on the new itunes!..please help!

Reason one: if you have not installed quicktime, the new iTunes will refuse to import video
Solution: install QuickTime player as well as reinstall iTunes.
Reason two: the video format or codec, or specifacation does not meet the iTunes 11 demand
Solution: convert video like mp4, m4v, mov, avi, wmv, mkv, flv to iTunes supported one, detailed guide atSolution on Can't Add Videos to iTunes 11
Move video from Home videos to Movies in itunes
Go to the particular movie in "Home Videos" section, on the movie, right click the mouse (for Windows users) or press Ctrl and click the mouse (for Mac users) to open the context menu, in the context menu, click on "Get info", the "Get info" window will pop up, switch to "Options" section, click the "Media Kind" drop down list to select Movie, finally click "OK" button, your movie will automatically moved to "Movies" section.

How can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

how can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

Yes, you can add your own videos to iTunes, then sync them to your nano, subject to supported max resolution limit and file type. The specs for the 7th gen nano says (I don't know which nano model you have), Video Format Support
"H.264 video: 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Baseline, Main, and High-Profile level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 Mbps, 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
(earlier nanos have lower max resolution limits)
So, "HD" video is too high resolution, so iTunes will not sync such videos to the iPod (although they play in iTunes). If you are asking how to set up iTunes to sync videos in general (regardless of source), please post back.

We will need to know full details about your issue - format of the videos, version of iTunes, and what exactly happens when you try to add them - before anyone can be of any help. If you're referrring to iTunes on your computer, you may be more likely to get a quick and useful suggestion if you ask the iTunes forum appropriate for your computer platform (Mac or Windows).

Can't add videos to ipod in OS10.8 but can in OS10.7

I have my main startup drive loaded with OS 10.8 and my second internal drive with OS10.7. Everything works fine when I've started up from the second internal drive, but when I startup up with OS10.8, I can't load any videos into my ipod. Both drives have the same version of ITunes and Quicktime. Is this a known issue and is there a solution?

Sorry, it was the end of a very long work day. The main startup drive is 10.4.8, the second internal drive is 10.4.7. I have repaired permissions and run diskwarrior on the main startup drive. It's the latest version of itunes on both drives (I double checked and ran software update on both drives). It's a brand new 80gig video ipod. I'm not on the system at the moment, but there are a bunch of problems when I use the main startup drive. The options to update and restore for the ipod are greyed out. There are no video folders in the ipod (but if I remember correctly, they are there when I start from the other drive). When I first tried running itunes with the new ipod I couldn't register the ipod. I was able to do that from the other drive. And everything seems fine when I startup from the secondary drive. When I've started up from the main drive, I can't drag videos from itunes into the ipod. It works perfectly when starting up from the other drive. The main drive is a clean install and OS and app update done about 6 weeks ago. The secondary drive was a cloned version of the startup drive (done before wiping and doing the clean install).
Thanks for your help.

Can you stream video from itunes using 1st generation appleTV

can I stream video using itunes on my PC and an appleTV(1st generation)?

AppleTV 1 works differently.
It has a sync/share mode and sharing (streaming only) modes set up by pairing the unit with iTunes on computers using the Settings>Computers menu.
The first sync and share connection is for one itunes library and allows you to sync compatible media to the unit's hard drive as well as stream the rest seamlessly if itunes is runniung and the drive has filled up - this media is accessed under My Music, My Movies etc.
Sharing libraries stream only and are accessed via My Shared Movies, Music etc.
Yes, Handbrake is a video converter that has AppleTV presets - use AppleTV1 preset or a simple universal Apple preset.
See:

ATV1 does not understand Home Sharing or video Airplay.

HT201209 Can I add to my iTunes account using my credit card?

Can you add to your iTunes account total with a credit card, or is a iTunes card the only way to add money?

If you add a credit card, it won't count towards the total; instead, it'll be charged after the gift card balance is used up, or when buying gifts.

Just downloaded 10.7 and it won't let me add videos to iTunes.

Just downloaded 10.7 and it won't let me add videos to iTunes. Previous version worked fine. I tried to "add file to library" nothing. I've tried to drag the file....nothing. Just a red circle with a line through it. Any suggestions?

These sound like interrelated problems that are probably system errors/issues on your computer. I see you are already pursuing them here https://discussions.apple.com/message/16835461#16835461
