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).

  • Unable to import videos into iTunes library

    For the past few week I have been unable to import videos from my computer into the iTunes library using either the drag and drop or import file methods. I am using the latest version of iTunes and a second generation iPod touch.
    I have tried using file formats: wmv, av1, mpeg & mp.4 but all refuse to load into the library. To test I have changed a file name of a video that was successfully loaded into the library a while ago and this file also refuses to load. I have also used 'Smart FLV Converter' to convert the files to 'MP4 for iPod' and this converted file also cannot be imported. All of the files play OK from the desktop.
    Any suggestions as to how to overcomne this problem would be appreciated

    I don't know if this helps but my iTunes was crashing everytime I tried to add a file located in the "My videos" folder. I moved the files to "My Music" Folder and had no problems. Seems like a simple/stupid solution but it worked for me. I still don't know why it wasn't allowing me to do it in the first place.

  • Unable to add videos to iTunes 7

    I downloaded iTunes 7 yesterday evening. After i was finished installing and i connected my ipod a warning appeared saying that none of the videos in itunes could be copied to the ipod because of their format, but even though in version 6.0.5 the videos played and loaded onto my ipod. all my videos were converted to m4v. i deleted the old videos and tried to import the converted videos again, but iTunes didn't seem to do anything. the videos just don't seem to appear in the Movies library or in my playlist.
    Can somebody please help me? should i just wait for an update or downgrade to earlier version?
    kind regards,

    I am having a very similar problem,
    I backed up a bunch of TV shows that I paid for through I tunes on an external drive. However when I try to drag them back into my library they don't work. I spent 60 dollars on two seasons that I can no longer get to work now that I have upgraded. Is this how we should be rewarded for supporting itunes. How do you take MP4 that you had in a different hard drive and back them up. I never copied the whole library just the folder with the tv shows in it. Please help!!!!!!!!

  • Can't import videos into iTunes

    Yeah..so maybe I'm just ********, but I cant get any videos onto iTunes. I've tried all the formats, .mpeg and .mov and such, but can't get it. When I choose Import or drag and drop the video into iTunes, nothing happens. I'm lost...

    I have the exact same problem. I've tried several differnt ways trying to get 3 different videos in my library but they just wont go. I've been through File > Add file to library, and as well as File > Add folder to library. But when I click on the movie and click Open it does nothing. I have no idea why but it's driving me crazy. Please help me too...

  • How Do I Get Home Videos into iTunes?

    I have 6 home videos that I want to put into iTunes....both the iTunes library on the hard drive and the iTunes app.  I had them in there but for some reason they got mixed up and I deleted them. I have the copies so how do I get them into the iTunes library on my hard drive and into the itunes app so I can look at them.
    It is such a mess and I'm trying to make my question as simple as possible.  Here is one thing that happens...when  I tried to put the videos into iTunes they went into a folder called Home Videos.  But there is no folder on iTunes called Home Videos....it is called Movies which is where the videos were before.  There is no place for me to access a folder called Home Videos because there isn't one.  And, If I access the old Movie Folder it is empty.  The Movie folder is permanent....put there by iTunes so I can't delete it and add add one called Home Videos. 
    Can anyone straighten out this mess?  The only good news is that I still have copies of the home videos...they were not deleted.

    Drag them into the library folder.

  • Can't import QT compatibile videos into iTunes 6

    Here is what it says about importing video into iTunes 6 in the Help menu:
    You can also watch other QuickTime-compatible videos (for example, files that end in ".mov" or ".mp4") in iTunes. Drag a video into the iTunes window, as you would any song file. Videos have a display icon next to them in the library.
    I have tried everything to get a .mov and a .mp4 movie into iTunes and I can't make it happen. Anyone have any luck with this?
    Dave

    I assume these files play fine in QuickTime?
    Have you tried Add to Library from the File menu (Command O).
    If that doesn't work, try a Save As from QT. You should then be able to import the new file fine.
    I did notice that changing the extension (from .mov to .mp4 in my case) rendered the video un-importable. You don't get any feedback from iTunes either - it just doesn't work.
    Good luck!

  • How to load BBC MP4 DRM video into iTunes?

    Can BBC MP4 DRM protected files be played in iTunes? I don't seem to be able to import a downloaded BBC video into iTunes.
    Sometimes I see files called M4v or something like that which I don't understand. My downloaded file suffix is mp4.

    Place a copy of the file in <Media Folder>\Automatically Add to iTunes. If iTunes knows what to do with it then it will be added to the library. However if the DRM has been applied via BBC iPlayer then the chances are that iTunes cannot authorize or play it.

  • Unable to import videos into library

    I'm using the iPhone 5 and want to add movies to it. My iTunes doesn't add videos into its library. Even though I go to File->Add file to library->select the movie, a beep sound plays and nothing happens. So I downloaded the Quick time player. But still the problem persists. I used Total Video Converter to convert the videos to the required format but still its not getting added to the library.
    Am I supposed to download an extension to the iTunes to play videos or is there something else that I'm supposed to do?
    Please help me with this.

    Hi there op_srinath!
    I have an article here that can help you sync the information from your computer into your iPhone using iTunes:
    iTunes: Syncing media content to iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1351
    The instructions in this article reference the iPod as the device being synced, but your iPhone can be synced in the exact same way. I also have an article that can help you with some frequently asked questions about video syncing that can help inform you about the process:
    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2729
    Lastly, if you need to transfer videos from your iPhone into your computer, you will want to reference the following article for instructions:

  • Cannot upload videos into itunes library!

    sorry if this is the wrong place to post or something, but i'm in desperate need of help!
    i can't seem to upload any of my own videos into itunes video library. i heard that i'm supposed to drag the file into the library but when i do that it just stays the same and nothing happens. i tried to reformat the video files to MPEG but it still doesn't work.
    Can someone please help me?
    PS. I'm using Ipod video

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Open Quicktime. Try to open the video through that. Does it open and play in Quicktime?
    Also, right click on the video file. Go to properties. What is the file type/kind?
    You will most likely need to use a 3rd Party Converter, as iTunes will only accept videos that are compatible with Quicktime.
