101 files not supported by iPod

Interesting... my previous post about this problem got removed by the admin. Wonder what exactly they're trying to hide? (And, on another note, I wonder how I get rid of the unresolved question, since I can't view it any more?)
It appears, from searching more carefully for answers, that iTunes 7.2 has an odd bug that others are seeing too, usually involving 101 files that couldn't be copied to the iPod because they are "not supported" by the iPod. It seems that these files are often MP3s that were originally AACs burnt to audio CD and then ripped back in as MP3s (as was the case for me*), and that the problem just appeared in iTunes 7.2. However, I've seen some people say that the problem also hit MP3s ripped from commercial CDs, though that wasn't the case for me.
In any case, my question has been answered (it was NOT file corruption, as had been suggested), so I thought I'd let folks know what the problem was. I fixed it by re-creating my iTunes library using the directions at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313
* Yes, I had a legit reason for doing this! I have two devices, a stereo and a car CD player, that can play MP3 CDs, so I had to convert the AACs to MP3 to use them with those devices.

To convert a song to another format, change your import settings to the format you want to use, highlight the track or tracks and go to Advanced>Convert Selection To:
How To Choose Import Settings
How to convert a song to a different format
Converting will create a duplicate of the original only in a new format, if you only want to keep one copy you can delete the original.

  • My Ipod Touch is giving a error message of 'This accessory is not supported by iPod Touch' whenever I dock it in my Bose Sound Dock and refuses to play but will charge the device?? am screaming mad and want to be able to play audio thru using the 2

    my ipod touch will not play music thru the Bose sound dock and displays the message 'this accessory is not supported by iPod Touch' how can I fix it?

    "This accessory is not supported" usually refers to an inability to charge the iPod, but the music should still play throguh the Bose dock. My iPod Touch works this way.
    However, when the Bose refuses to make any sound, I unplug it from mains power for one minute. Then plug it back in and try again. This always sorts out the sound issue, but of course, it still will not charg the Touch.
    What happens in your case?

    Not Charge
    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Just upgraded to Lion and can no longer import any .mov files ("file not supported") to 3.1.3.  Also can no longer view any .mov or .mp4 files already in library.

    Have been using Aperture 3.1.3 with no problems.  Importing from a Nikon D80 (RAW & JPEG), Casio (.MOV) and Flip (.mp4).  Could import and view all videos without issue prior to Lion upgrade.  After Lion installation, can no longer import .mov files (get "file not supported" error) or even view any .mov or .mp4 files currently in library (even though thumbnail is present).  Can watch the .mov files directly on my camera using Quicktime in Finder but can't even drag & drop that file into Aperture.  Anybody else having similar problems?

    Still no resolution and Geniuses at store could not assist.  Unfortunately, it looks like not all the applications were ready to support the Lion operating system.  We could not import any .mov files, could no longer view any .mov files already in my Aperture library and could not email any .mov files.  Totally frustrated.  Use Aperture almost daily and can't lose the video functionality.  Was also running dog-slow.  Constantly looking at the spinning wheel.  Geniuses suggested that I wipe out hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard.  Had full backup on external drive with Time Machine. 
    Not an easy process though...had to reinstall several times (at 5 hours each time) because I continued to have issues.  Finally figured out that I needed to delete every backup file from Time Machine on external drive from the date I installed Lion because some of the hidden files were still migrating back to Snow Leopard.
    I had to:
    1. Delete all time machine backup files from date/time of Lion installation forward
    2. Do "clean" installation of Snow Leopard (wiped hard drive using disk utility and booted with Snow Leopard disc)
    3. Chose option to reinstall from backup off Time Machine which eventually got me back to Snow Leopard desktop
    4. Deleted Aperture program and reinstalled (I had to install Aperture 2 and then install Aperture 3 upgrade.
    5. Reinstalled iLife apps
    5. Applied all Apple updates available (again this took a few hours because there were several updates from Snow Leopard's original release plus Aperture 3 and other application updates)
    Still doing some tweaking on some of my other apps but got everything back to where I originally was.  Now plan to wait on a few version updates from Lion before reinstalling.
    I am one of Apple's biggest fans, but was very disappointed in the fact that I lost functionality in one of their own pieces of software (which I use the most!)  by installing Lion.

  • TV 32tl838g DLNA Video File not supported

    Hi,
    I bought a new TV, 32TL838G 3D LED, but I'm not happy with it.
    It says it supports DLNA, but for some reason I can't watch any video with DLNA. I had DivX activated, but it didn't help much..
    And i've tried a lot of different videos (with different codecs) but I can't play any of them..
    The strange part, is that I can play all those videos if I put them in a USB Pen drive..
    And the problem is not in my DLNA server, as with other DLNA devices I'm able to reproduce those videos, so this is an issue with this TV.
    I hope that someone here could explain me why this happens, and how to fix it, or at least that a new firmware will fix this (as if with USB videos are playable, then its not hardware but more likely a software issue)
    This is completely unacceptable, when a feature is announced it HAS TO work properly.

    I'm using Windows 7, it supports DLNA so I don't need to install any other software..
    In TV I can browse all movies and folders that I have shared in my Win7 computer, the problem is that I can't watch any movie ,as it says File not supported.
    If I put the same movie in a Pen Drive, and plug the pen drive in the TV than I can watch it without any issue..
    The problem is when I try to watch movies in TV using the DLNA..
    The TV is connected to LAN by wire, not wireless..
    Again, In other devices, like with my Android phone, I can watch movies that I have in my Win7 Computer without any issue, using DLNA (with Samsung Allshare app)
    Thanks

  • Tried Most Everything... Error Type of file not supported... codec not installed

    Hi Friends: I have been battling with the error message of ... "Type of file not support or codec not installed."  I have been throughout the forums searching for answers and attempting various suggestions.  I am stumped and am reaching out for some wisdom and help.
    1.)    System Gateway – T-6859u, Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 2Ghz, 4 Gig ram, Problem has existed on both Vista and upgraded Windows 7.  I have used Premiere since Premier 5 (Full version not elements) including versions 6 and PRO.  I have Elements on my laptop for convenience.
    2.)    Assets- Problem exists with all AVI files.  This includes files that worked previously but will no longer be recognized.  I have used Elements since version 7 was new.  It is only the last 4 months this has been and issue.  These are AVIs that previously working in Elements 7 from Panasonic DV camera and other DV sources. 
    3.)    Problem first appeared when Windows Update installed security patch KB975560.  Once the Security patch installed Premiere quit running AVIs.  When the patch was removed Premiere worked again. However, windows update continued to reload the patch.  The patch has now been removed and prevented from reloading.  However, the problem now persists.
    4.)    Other attempted repairs.  Reloading Premiere Elements 7, Upgrading to Windows 7, Removing and reinstalling K-Lite Codec packs inc standard and 64bit.  Loading LEADTOOLS.  None has repaired the problem  All the AVI files playback fine in other programs including Windows Movie Maker, Media Player Classic, WM player etc.
    I'm not sure what to do next.  I have been a dedicated Premiere user for so many years, I don't want to switch to another program.  Any suggestions friends?

    Welcome to the forum.
    What version of Apple's QT Player do you have installed?
    PrE relies on this much more than its big-brother, PrPro, until CS5.
    From my experience, QT  7.5.5 was my "last known good," and some problems have been reported with the 7.6.2 and 7.6.3 versions. 7.6.6 is out, and works well for many Adobe users.
    I would investigate updating QT Player.
    Also, FFDShow, an element in K-Lite has been death to PrPro for many people. Just having it installed brings PrPro to its knees.
    Though Adobe hides its CODEC's pretty well, K-Lite has been known to shift the priority of the Adobe MainConcept CODEC's. While it does not overwrite them, or delete them, it sets up some of its CODEC's to take priority. There are some older threads on Registry editing and utilities to reset the priority of the Adobe MainConcept CODEC's. Seems that Robert Johnson participated in those discussions and may have furnished the link to at least one utility.
    Those are all the thoughts that I have now, and none might be of use.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS - Robert has not been around here lately, but does spend time on the Muvipix Community forum. I'd post there in the PrE 7 forum, and ask if anyone has any ideas too.

  • "Type of file not supported" but previous timeline files OK

    Simply put, I have projects that I can open up and they display and edit the MTS files from my Panasonic camera fine.  yet, I cannot add any new MTS files or even import ones that are already in the timeline without it saying to me "Type of file not supported".  It obviously supports them since my project before imported and I edited them without problem.
    I just got done uninstalling and reinstalling the software.  But no help.
    How can it see and use MTS files in my timeline yet cannot recognize any of the same files in the media folder?
    I'm stuck with a useless Premiere Application.  $99 down the drain.
    Help!

    I found out the problem.
    The MTS files can't be dragged into the timefrom from the media folder.
    They can be dragged from the project folder.
    That is the simple fact.  Even though it says it does not recognize the file type in the media area, if you import a file into the media area it also appears in the project area and you can go to the project area to drop the file into the timeline.
    Go figure...
    I am editing away once again.  This is what happens when you don't use a program for a while.
    Oil well...

  • Raw files not supported

    I have a new Canon T2i and can't seem to get the raw files to open in Elements 8. I have downloaded the 5.6 camera raw update and the DNG converter and both say camera raw files not supported......now what?

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    I  have also an EOS Rebel T2i since a few days and I experienced the same issue with Photoshop CS4.  What next? !!!!
    It's likely the next version of Adobe Camera Raw will handle it;   Adobe updates ACR about every three or four months, and the most recent version was released in December:

  • Are .mp4 files not supported when trying to merge 2 videos into 1 video?

    Are .mp4 files not supported when trying to merge 2 videos into 1 video? The steps in the manual seem simple enough.  But the paste function won't work on the 1st video after selecting all and then copy on the 2nd video.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on eight different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.

  • Canon hf11 error file not supported in cs4

    I have the Canon HF11.  I have tried to import avchd files via the media browser and get the error message:  files not supported.  I have upgraded to 4.01.  The files can import successfully into IMovie 09.  I originally had the trial version installed, but I have uninstalled it via the uninstaller, and have installed the retail version.  Could this be causing the problem?  If so, any solutions would be appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Rhonda

    I uninstalled cs4 and downloaded the cleanup script.  The program found the cs4 installation, but no files were listed to clean-up.  The right bottom box was grayed-out.
