30 gig video, podcasts crash the ipod with iTunes 7.0.1

has anyone had their ipod crash only when playing podcasts? short podcasts are fine, but 50 minute or more, crash and restart the ipod. playing music is fine.

I have noticed two things with my 30 gig Video Ipod since i updated the software thru iTunes 7. First all my podcasts syncs that are happening with Album artwork are crashing the iPod and making it restart and the second is that it has also affected some songs albeit selectively. I tried turning the album artwork off and only once did one of the five podcasts i downloaded did work!
All the Podcasts or most of the ones that I had downloaded before iTunes 7 updater for iPod do tend to work but there is no pattern.
The reason I love apple and my iPod is the sheer magic of podcasts that are my companion and daily dose of caffeine en route to work...and I hate to get any glitches.
Can somebody walk through the step by step procedure to correct this or does one wait for another update from Apple?

Transfer Music + Videos + Podcasts + Photos from iPOd to iTunes

This is the same case of old PC crashing. I noticed there are a lot of ways of transferring music files to a new iTunes. Is there a way to do the same with video, podcasts and photo files as well?

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed above your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there is a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows. The procedure is a bit involved and was written long before iTunes 7 so it requires a little adaptation, also it won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's posted in this thread: MacMuse - iPod to iTunes
If you prefer something more automated then have a look at the third party utilities listed above they are generally quite straightforward and simple to use. Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync.

I got a new computer, downloading iTunes and I need to know how to sync the iPod with itunes so I don't lose songs.

Can you tell me how to sync my iPOD with my new computer. I downloaded iTunes but the library is different.

Is it possible to EXPORT video films from the iPod to iTunes ?

EXPORTING FILES FROM IPOD TO ITUNES
Obviously, I know how to send files from iTunes to iPod.
But is it possible to do the opposite way ?
I have video files on my iPod that got lost on my hard drive.
I'd like to save them back to the hard drive (and import them back into iTunes).
Anyone out there knows if this is possible ?

There are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. One that I recall does videos as well is iPodCopy. Have a look at the web pages and documentation for it: iPodCopy

Generally the iPod update is pretty quick unless you are making many hundreds of changes at a time. It could be the USB port is slow, try it in another port, preferably on the back of the PC, some computers have underpowered ports on the front panel. Also the recommended system requirements are for USB 2, it will work from a USB 1 port but much slower if that's the type of port you have.

Problem with album picture on iPod with iTunes 10.2.2.14

I'm using iTunes 10.2.2.14 on windows xp (service pack3) with iPod classic 80Gb.
In iTunes I have 14.000 songs. Most of them with album illustration.
In iTunes these illustrations are available.
On my iPod I can se the covers
On my iPod Classic in [music] [cover flow] view, I see the album pictures
On my iPod Classic in [music] [[Albums] view, no picture is show at all.
When playing the indivualnumber for each album,
I will NOT see the album cover for the first song in that album
However, I do see the albumcovers for the subsequent numbers.
Missing the album for the first song, I can understand the view-per-album does not show any picture
Mostlikely because it will take the album picture from the first song.
But why is is missing with (all) first songs ?
I checked Itunes; the album cover is there.
I have de-installed en installed iTunes.
I have emptied the iPod.
I have reload all the songs in iTunes.
All without result.
An so strange; the same effect for all albums.
Somebody suggestions what the cause is ?
Or how I can overcome / repair this ?

If your iPod is set to update automatically then try this:
1. Connect your iPod
2. Disable "Show Album art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
3. Syncronise the iPod with iTunes. (Disconnecting and then reconnecting your iPod will do the trick)
4. Re-enable "Show Album Art" in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>iPod.
5. Syncronise the iPod again.

My IPOD Classic Video 5. Gen. showed videos, but now it does no longer show them, instead i see a black picture on my IPOD and it doesn`t work. I have to restart it every time, i try it. i restore the software with itunes, but the problem still exists.

The Videos are showed up front 4 months, but now they are no longer to be seen. When you star a video first the hard drive starts, but then it stops and hangs up. I have to restart it, starting with the apple logo....

I have continuously over the last 6 months struggled with syncing my iphone and ipod with itunes The app continually crashes during the picture import. AND by the way it takes 10-15 minutes before it even attempts to import photos. The screen says importing photoes but doesnt try to optimize or anything for 10 minutes. I have a 3gs with 16Gb so its not a cheap phone. I have 10Gb free. I have 6600 photoes. This is very frustrating and undermines my confidence in your products. My ipod is an ipod 4 with 16Gb also. It does the exact same thing to it. The last time, I had to import photoes a few at the time and with it taking 10-15 minutes each time for 6600 photos it is a long frustrating process. But it will import every photo a few at a time. The error message is just that itunes has stopped working. no hint as to why. AND of course, my phone is out of use for the entire time. You guys must not want to believe ur phones are a necessary tool...or maybe you dont want the consumer to believe it is. I have tried to find solutions on your website as well as through other 3rd party communities. Ultimately they were of no use. I stumbled onto my solution by accident since Im a bit of a computer geek...a semi-geek.

I have this issue too, I went into my Windows event viewer. (should have looked at this a year ago when this started)

basically whenever I try to sync my ipod touch 4G 64GB it crashes iTunes when it begins the pictures. if im lucky ill get 4-5 on there before it stops responding. its not my system or anything im running win7x64 8GB DDR3 ram (Corsair XMS3) AMD FX Eight core processor.
It is silly that iTunes cannot add pictures to apple devices. it shatters whatever incline I may have to buy apple products. knda like the Airport Extreem router my dad bought the new firmware, caused my router to not function... why release firmware that breaks a product. -_- <-- off topic but still

Try swiping your finger across the podcast then tap Delete.

MY hard drive crashed and I had to replace it. Now when I try to sync my iPod with iTunes it says that I have to replace the old library (that is lost forever) with the new library to sync. I do not want to lose all the songs on my iPod! What can I do?

Copy all the content on your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes. Then go ahead and sync the iPod with your new library.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

I Ipod class wont play TED and other video podcasts. The genious bar could not figure out the problem. This problem is not isolated to a single computer. Secondly, the convert to ipod version feature in Itunes does not resolve the problem.

My Ipod classic wont play TED, The Grid, Techzilla and other video podcasts (but not all video podcasts). The genious bar could not figure out the problem. Instead, the Apple store gave me credit towards a new classic, which produced the same problem. This problem is not isolated to a single computer. Secondly, the convert to ipod version feature in Itunes does not resolve the problem. Lastly, I tried restoring the ipod to no avail. I've heard this is a video codec problem.

Video podcasts crashing MBP? Why so?

System: MBP 2.4GHz with Tiger v10.4.11 and the latest iTunes 7.6.1 and QuickTime 7.4.1
All media are stored on an external FW SATA HD.
Problem: Playing most video podcasts crash or freeze my MBP! Doesn't happen to music videos, TV shows and movies. Why is that so? Driving me nuts! Strangely, no issue with a Leopard system.
Tried: Reinstall iTunes, QuickTime and apply Mac OS X v10.4.11 combo update. Repair permission and run maintenance. The problem still persists.
HELP?!

I've been researching this problem since February and still haven't found a fix. A similar problem has been reported by people in Second Life.
I noticed in my case:
- if I'm looking at the video podcast in the album artwork window there isn't a problem
- if open it in a separate window and don't move my cursor over that window, I'm fine
- if I move my cursor rapidly over the window and don't leave the cursor over it, it will freeze the video for about 20 seconds and then start again
- if I move my cursor over the window and leave it there it, it will lock up the system and I can't Force Quit or do anything else but a cold boot (if I was hearing sound it will continue repeating the last sound until I power down).
So far what it looked like was a video driver issue. Something like the GeForce not handling Open GL or maybe a problem when it has to overlay the video play control on top of the video window.
This is my first Mac and I was very proud of its resilience but with this bug, I'm afraid to let people touch the thing and have them find out how easy it is to lock up the system.
So stmidnite, have you noticed that this happens only with video podcasts that are tagged as new? Does it happen even when your cursor isn't over the video window?

Video podcast format for iPods

I created a video podcast and the RSS feed was successfully accepted by iTunes.
The first two episodes download through iTunes fine. The only problem is that the video file would not transfer to any video iPod. The first two episodes were 320x240 .mov files.
So, I read some sites and found out that it needed to be a .m4v file. I edit the show in iMovie. After finishing the third episode, I used iMovie to "Share to iPod" which I figured would format the file into a proper format for an iPod.
The 3rd episode is uploaded onto the RSS feed, but iTunes doesn't recognize this and make the file available for download. It still only has the first two episodes for download.
Any suggestions? Do I need to use Quicktime Pro and use that to convert the files?
If it helps, here is a link to the feed in iTunes.

Thanks for the help in advance.

I dont know about doing it the "easy" way with apps that do all the work for you. Here it is the "hard" manual way.
You should create a graphic specifically for this purpose and upload that JPEG file to the pace where your podcast episodes are hosted. Then you can post the URL of the picture into your RSS feed, in the top part where all the main info about your podcast is. It should look like this:
<itunes:image href="http://www.kutvfreshair.com/podcast/bloopersLogo.jpg" />
where the "href" is the http of your picture.
