Well, open your iPod options, choose the Videos tab, and make sure it's set to automatic update. If it already is, right click on the video(s) and choose "Convert Selection for iPod."

Can't drag videos into itunes 11.1.0

Hi,
i just updated my ios to 7.0.3 & itunes to 11.1 yesterday and now i can't add any videos to my iphone 5 via itunes 11.1.0... what happened was i did a sync on a new computer and of course it wipes my iphone 5 clean of videos & music. so now i have to add the same videos back, but when i drag and drop videos in itunes library, itunes just won't take it. it should not be the format since the vidoes are the same mp4 videos i had on my iphone 5 before. They all played fine. Is this a bug in itunes 11 ? how does one add videos to the itunes library to do a sync. Can anyone help ? This is very frustrating as I've been doing this for the last 2 hrs. As good as Apple is, itunes is just one frustring UI to work with...

Can anyone help ? I'm sure i am not the only one w/ this problem ?

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...

Can't drag files into itunes from computer folder.

Im running windows 7 64bit, with the newest version of itunes:10.2.2.14. I can't drag files from my "music folder" which is in my documents into itunes anymore. I used to be able to do this with my old computer running windows 7 32bit, and even on windows vista, but it doesn't seem to work for me now. is there a setting that i can change? or mess around with something to fix this problem?

Ah. Just updated iPod again and movie dragged in fine.
Odd how it should work for one and not the other.
I guess that could a "bug fix" that the update referred to?

Can't put video into itunes or ipod

Hi,
I did spend some time searching and I tried several things but I can't figure it out. My friend burned me a cd with Wedding Crashers as an .avi file. I used "im too mpeg encoder" to change the file into .mp4, mpeg4. I click and drag it and drop it in my ipod folder on itunes, and nothing happens. I try the same thing except drag it into my library and nothing happens, doesn't even show up. I have clicked on file 'add file' to library and i click on it and nothing happens, and add folder and added the folder it was in. All the files in the folder loaded except the wedding crashers .mp4. If anyone has any suggestions or links to places where this has already been asked and answered I would be very appreciative. Thanks.

I am having the same problem. I need HELP!

ITunes 7.3 - Can't import videos into itunes

I've been trying for a while to import some videos into my iTunes, trying various formats (mv4, mp4 and mov), but none will actually import. I've even tried moving one of my friends movies off a thumbdrive, but that didnt work either.
Can someone please help me? I have no idea how I can fix this, and there are some radiohead videos that I must have on my iPod.

I don't know much about Vista, but the first time I tried to import movies, I had to download a compressor. Grant it that I compressed the whole DVD, but still it worked from the finalized compressed version. Then just import, locate file, and open.

Can't drag songs into iTunes 8

I've been recording LPs (with Audacity) and converting them to CDs by burning the playlists in iTunes for years. I hadn't done it for a couple of months, and in the meantime iTunes was upgraded from version 7 to version 8. My procedure is this: I recorded in Audacity, split and name the tracks with the song names and export them as aiff files at 41.000kHz 16 bit. I then drag them into a playlist in iTunes from the finder and burn the CD. Now I cannot drag the songs into iTunes at all. I've tried using the command Add to Library, and that doesn't work either. I've checked that the songs are not locked, and I've looked at the Import settings in the preferences and set the encoder for AIFF. What's wrong here? Has Apple locked out users who want to do this?
thanks,
Jack

Funny how we´re doing and experiencing the same, although maybe not for the same reasons... I have been converting my old LPs to CD with Audacity on a WinXP box, soon gave up because of the flabbergasting speed of it (not audacity, the box...). Begin last month almost transformed the monitor into the flattest screen on earth; fortunately not, as I still needed it to order my first Mac, 5 minutes later.
I believe Apple wants us to drag and drop the AIFFs into the *Burn Folder* straight in the Finder now (right under Documents), which carries a convenient <Burn> button (top right) to burn everything in there on a CD. It works for me anyway, that´s how I´m doing since last week. Took me some time to find out though, grant you that!

Can't drag video into timeline premiere cc

Been working with PP CC since it came out and have had almost no problems. Now I have a head scratcher. I can't drag a video clip from the project panel to the sequence. The audio comes but the video won't. All I get is the close hand with a line through it when I hover over any of the video tracks. The clips play fine in the source monitor but still cant drag it from source to sequence either. Tried this with clips from several projects and cameras but no go. Started a new project, different name, folder and footage, still have the problem.

Can't drag movies into iTunes v8

or should I rather say, I can drag 'em, but the do not land there.
When dragging a .avi-movie in Vista, the thumbnail is shown, but the LIBRARY tab does not highlight, when dragging the movie over it (as it is, when dragging an MP3 there) Dropping the file subsequently does nothing. The iPod manual says iTunes supports all files supported in Quicktime, and the file in question plays fine in Quicktime...
Any idea would be appreciated.

"no" symbol issues with itunes 10.5 (can't drag music into itunes)

When I first downloaded itunes 10.5 I was having issues clicking on the different topics on the left hand side
such as movies, music, etc, i'd ALWAYS get a "no symbol" (circle with a line through it), but when I right clicked it worked
I downloaded something someone said on here and everytime I boot up Itunes it ask yes or no if I wanna run itunes....
But today for some reason, it won't let me drag my music from my music file to itunes, gives me the same no symbol
I download from the same site (youtube), and my music file there is nothing wrong with the file codes as I tried adding old songs too and got the same symbol
any thoughts? really disliking 10.5 right now

I am having the exact same issue too and cannot find any solutions...any luck?

I can't add ringtones into itunes 12

hi, i just bought a new computer got my itunes 12 downloaded, than took me 2 days to download all my music, apps, movies, ect from itunes store back to my computer. than i had made some ringtones as .m4r files, but i can't drag them into itunes!!!!!! after i draged them into itunes, it appeared in the music lib, but not the ringtone lib, and i can't add them anyway doesn't matter if i change the file into .m4r or .m4a or .mp3, they all appeared in the music lib, and even if i sync my iphone with it, it will appear in my music but i can't see any of them in the settings=>sound=>ringtone.
even i deleted all the ringtone in itunes which was only one that was brounght on my phone (didn't know how it get there, i got other ringtones i purchased in my iphone, but they didn't got into itunes)
so here are two main questions:
1: how to add customised ringtone into itunes 12
2: how to add ringtones purchased from iphone into itunes 12

thank you, i tried them b4, not working.
but now the problem solved. i did the following:
1: change my itunes language settings back to english ( it was chinese b4)
2: close itunes than re open it
3: i downloaded a ringtone app on my iphone to allow me to customise the songs into ringtones on my iphone
4: sync my iphone
5: find the ringtones under my iphone's app in itunes sync
6: copy the tones in my computer
7:drag them back to my itunes ringtone lib,
all done~~~~ it took a few step, but at least it worked.
tried the change file format thing again, still not working
