    i had this pb with my sis ipod, you have to convert the videos to put them on the ipod, here is the french tuto (never found it in english, and this always works).

  • Can´t play video in my iPod

    I didn´t find anything about my problem in any other topic.
    I´ve bought an iPod video. I can put music, photos and postcasts on it using iTunes, but the video doesn´t work.
    I´ve read that the correct video format is mp4. I downloaded a program called "Videora iPod Converter" that turns any kind of video into a mp4 file.
    So, i´ve created a video called "siimpsons16x6.mp4" from a video file with ".avi" extension. I can play the new video in the Quicktime or with iTunes. But when I put the video in the iPod, although there is no error, something is wrong. I disconnect the iPod, but i can´t find any video file in it.
    Can anybody help me? How put your own videos into the iPod?
    Thanks, and sorry for my bad english...

    Your english is great, welcome to discussions.
    You might have better luck on the 5th generation video iPod discussions. I don't have one, so no advice other than check over there

  • Can't get videos onto new iPod Nano 3G

    Ok i can not put any movie type on to my iPod nano not even: mp4 mov avi or other things...I NEED halp here people. Give me any method you can even converters but they can only be for mac. please i will take any response

    I've been using (quite successfully) Videora iPod Converter and it works so well it blew my mind the first time I used it. Of course I'm a bit of a power user, but the normal mode is so handy I can't help but to use it. Not sure if it works on a mac though. I tried to look, but couldn't find anything that explicitly says mac.

  • Can't play video on my ipod 5gen?

    Ok so yesterday I finally bought an apple ipod 5 gen 30G and was expecting to come home and simply upload videos and downloaded movies to it the same way as with songs. only problem is, It took me a while to figuire out how exactly to import My Fan made Movies into itunes, I used Videora iPod Converter. I converted my Fan made movies. It showed up and played fine in itunes but when I updated my ipod and tried to play the video (on my ipod) It simply shows a thumbnail and plays the audio!!
    Now I got this ipod to play both audio & video but it's really starting to **** me off, thats where GT comes in.
    Is there anyway to play fan made movies (created in windows movie maker) and downloaded full lengh movies (not from the itunes store but from torrents) on my ipod 5 gen????
    And is it supossed to take a really long time to convert say a 50MB file? Im really confused.
    Thanks-
    MRBee
    Edit: I just tried to sync the video to my ipod again and it said; ipod cannot play this file........WHAT?

    "when I updated my ipod and tried to play the video (on my ipod) It simply shows a thumbnail and plays the audio"
    On your iPod go to "Videos / Video Settings".
    Then select "TV Out" and either set it to "off" or "ask".
    Also, make sure you are accessing the video through the videos menu. If you have a video mixed in an audio playlist and you access it through that, you also won't be able to see the video.
    Btw, I would recommend something other than Videora. Try Streamclip.

  • How can i play videos on my ipod?

    i have a 5 gen 30gb ipod and whenever i try to put the videos on my ipod, it says that the videos cannot be placed on the ipod because the ipod isn't compatible with them. i have checked and the videos are both .mpg which as far as i know, is a compatible video extension. i posted this problem before and some guy gave me a program to fix it but i can't find that post anymore. anybody?

  • Playing videos of an ipod via xbox 360

    i was just curious as to if you connect like a normal ipod video with your xbox and go to the media>video tab on the xbox dashboard, can you play videos from your ipod via the xbox 360???? that would definitely be legit cuz im always bumming movies off of my friends itunes and then i could watch them on tv via xbox 360 connection. let me know

    that would definitely be legit cuz im always bumming movies off of my friends itunes
    definitely NOT legit.
    As to whether an xbox can handle this depends on what acessories you have. Apple and other companies make docks with A/V cables for playing video to TVs. If xbox can take those cables as inputs then it should work.

  • My iPod touch 5th gen can't play videos?

    I've had my iPod touch 5th gen since Christmas Eve and I haven't had any problems with it, but a few days ago it stopped playing videos and now - even though I have turned it off and back on and turned the wifi off and back on again - it still can't play videos off any site, Facebook, dailymotion, YouTube, nothing. But I can view webpages and get Internet connection just fine!!
    So if you know what I could do to fix it please help because it's very frustrating!!! Thanks

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I upgraded to itunes 10.6 and I can't manually sunc to my ipod nano 5th gen anymore. I have re-installed itunes, restored my ipod and tried it dozens of times

    I upgraded to itunes 10.6 and with that "upgrade" I can't manually sunc to my ipod nano 5th gen anymore. I have re-installed itunes, restored my ipod, tried syncing under another users account and everything else I can think of. It syncs ok upon initial start-up but then when I tryp to select podcasts or music to sync to it, itunes crashes. Now that I restored my ipod, I can't even get my old podcasts much less add new ones.

    Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

    You can only play video's with the new 5th generation iPods.
    Maybe the iSee (http://www.isee-ato.com/) is a good alternative for you?
