Can I put any old video on my iphone?

Can I put any video that I download onto my phone? Or does it have to be purchased through iTunes? Please help me out here. Thanks.

The video should be MPEG-4 or H.264 codecs.
If it is it should work.

What extensions accept the iPad and iPhone movies? Can I put any film of any length and with subtitles?

This is from the developer website (I feel like this is old, since it doesn't say anything about HD resolutions):
iOS supports many industry-standard video formats and compression standards, including the following:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in.m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
Also, there is a great app called VLC which supports almost any format under the sun! You can put media in it through iTunes.

After having to reinstall my drive with applications I get a message with Premiere Pro CS5 that it can't find any "capable video play modules" and asks me to "update" my "video display modules". How do I do this? I am using a mid-2010 iMac 27" with 10.7.3

After having to re-install my start-up drive recently I am getting a message with Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 that it can't find any "capable video play modules" and asks me to "update" my "video display modules". I am using a mid-2010 iMac 27" with OSX 10.7.3. How do I do this?

Premiere is an Adobe application and is supported in their forums.
Good luck.

You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

Installed iCloud on macbookpro, can't put any documents or anything in storage. Can you help?

installed iCloud on macbookpro, can’t put any documents or anything in storage. Can you help?

What version of osx are you running? It must be 10.7. Your profile shows 10.4. If that is correct then you could not have iCloud installed. If you have lion then you have to log into www.icloud.com from your browser, go to iWork's tab within iCloud, drag a supported file type and the doc will upload to iCloud .

Can't put any music on external memory card.

Hello. I've just got this phone and please help me fix this problem.
I can't put any music on my ext sd card. I tried to do this via copy / paste and via media go. Tried rebooting, formatting still not working. Also build in tool for moving music etc to sd card fails.
When I try to transfer music on to sd card by media go the end result is no music recognized by Walkman app and two folders are created. "Music" ( with nothing inside) and "albums" with files named by the names of the albums I've transfered.
I tried deleting .nomedia but after reboot it's there again ( on the sd) in some strangely named folder.
Also after copying the music to the ext sd LOST.DIR folder is filled with some files ( looks like this is my music)
I think that's all information I can give you now. Please ask questions if needed.
Thanks for any kind of help!
Solved!

Hi Ephixi4,
Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines
Have you tried this with an alternative SD card, as this may simply be that the SD card is not working correctly.

Despite adding more storage = 20GB my devices tell me that I can not take any photos/video, why would this be?

Despite adding more storage = 20GB my devices tell me that I can not take any photos/video, why would this be?

Because the issue is that you don't have sufficient available space on your phone, not that you don't have enough space in your iCloud account. Adding storage in iCloud does not give you more space on your phone.
You can check your available space by going to Settings>General>Usage. You'll need to delete or sync some data off your phone to freee up more space.

How can you restore a trimmed video on your iphone?

can you recover a trimmed video from your iPhone if you did not back up to your pc?
when you trim can you recover video you have trimmed?

Trimming=Delete.
When you trim the video, you’re trimming the original file, and any frames you delete from the video are gone forever. So you should make sure you really want to make cuts before you do so, or at least, back up your videos to your computer first. Sounds like you have no backup(which is done as the first part of a sync) before you trimmed. Thus, the footage is gone.

I can't download photos and videos from my iphone

Hi,
I have iPhone 4 with iOS 5. Can't download photos and videos from my iphone because my PC doesn't see it. Also my camera roll doesn't show right thumbnails and when i open a photo it shows it in low resolution. Only after i start editing it shows the photo itself in original resolution. iTunes recognises my phone but freezes on back up. When i updated my phone to ios 5 everything was wiped clear and i lost all of data that was in it. Please help me, i do not want to lose my data again.
I plugged it in to another pc (win7) but no files in DCIM.

appears to be one of the bugs associated with ios 5 that need to be worked out. (i had a problem where I had music on my phone, the phone didn't recognize the music but the computer could find it)
While I don't know how to fix the immediate problem, I have a workaround that will get you past this if you are willing...
My suggestion is to turn on icloud and photostream on your iphone, and download and install the icloud control panel on your pc found here
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html
take a "picture" (quickly press the home button and lock button at the same time) of each picture on your device so they show up in your camera roll and will sync to your photostream cloud. This will in turn cause your pc to download the photos from your photostream cloud via the icloud control panel. Your photos will be on your computer, and you will never have to sync your phone to get photos off your iphone again.

Why can I not import the videos from my iPhone 4 onto my desktop (Windows Vista)? When I plug in it imports the photos without a problem but it doesn't seem to import the videos.

1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
* On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).
