Can't find my videos on the iPod - but there in iTunes??

The music videos & TV shows I've paid for show up fine where they are supposed to on my iPod. About 1/2 of my video podcasts are showing up (Tiki Bar, DigitalLife TV, Diggnation (what a waste of space). Others show up under "Video" in iTunes, but are either not copying over to my iPod or I can't find them (definitely not under Videos). Also - a home movie in .mov is not showing up, as well as a Tivo file I brought over and converted to MP4. I can't find any consistency in why some videos are not playing on the iPod but do in iTunes. Any ideas??

Did you get any message when syncing your iPod that some videos couldn't be copied over? The iPod can play a subset of the videos that iTunes & QuickTime can. Although there are other details, basically it amounts to a maximum resolution of 320x240 for h.264 codec videos & 480x480 for MPEG4 videos. If a different codec or a larger size was used in the video podcasts you are attempting to copy, they won't transfer.
Also, the iPod puts the videos into various categories that match those in iTunes. You might want to check the Video podcast section in both iTunes & the iPod to confirm they match.

    Thanks!

    It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
    The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

  • How do you keep videos on the ipod but off your hard drive?

    When i tried to keep the videos off my hard drive but keep them on my ipod it deleted them off of my ipod also. is there any way i can just keep the videos on my ipod, but off my computers hard drive? thanks,
    keith

    you could simply add your movies to your ipod by syncing them. Adn then afterwards remove them adn manually manage your music on your ipod syncing with new music you want to add. Or another way is to burn your movies to a disc adn then whenever you want movies on your ipod then you can iport the movies from the disc to your harddrive and then sync your ipod and then manually manage your itunes adn sync of new music.

  • Is there a way to delete everything off the Ipod but not off itunes?

    I have a 4g Ipod nano, and it is full so it wont let me add any new songs. I have gone into itunes and deleted songs from my playlist and tried to update my ipod but even when i delete playlists and songs it still says that i dont have enough room to add any more. Is there any way i can delete everything off my ipod and but still have all my music in itunes so i can basically start over?

    Try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. it won't remove anything from your iTunes library. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • I can see the video on the ipod but i dont hear it!!!!

    i didnt buy the videos from itunes i downloaded it and transferred it on to the ipod. i dont know if that could be the problem or not.can anyone help?thanks.

    If your video was an MPEG(Muxed) file and you converted it using ITunes/Quick Time then thats your problem. Read these:

    You'll need a converter than can convert MPEG files.

  • CAN'T get videos on my ipod although there on itunes.......

    when i try to add a video to my ipod (30GB) it says that some files such as (name here) could not be copied to this ipod because they can not be played on this ipod what do i do??? im totally lost help anyone someone.. thanks in advance!!

    First of all, are your video files .mp4 files? If not you can do one of two things. One, you can buy or download and conversion program, or two, you can cheat and do what I did. (If you run on windows xp)
    1. Save the files on your computer somewhere. If it is more than one file, save all of the files in a new folder.
    2. Go to my computer and find your files.
    3. Rename them so that you know what order they go in (most of the time if you get the files off of a DVD you have somewhere around 50 files that say Titleo1_01Chapter01, or something like that) and make sure that at the end of the name you put .mp4 ex) The Phantom of the Opera.mp4
    You may loose some of the quality, but since it will be playing on a small screen, you won't notice it very much.
    4. Go to itunes and click on your ipod in the source list.
    5. Check “Manually Manage Music and Videos”. (If you haven't updated yet, right-click on your iPod in the source list, and select Preferences. Then go to the iPod tab, and select “manually Manage Music and Videos.”)
    6. Click movies in the source list.
    7. Click file, and select "add file" or "add folder". This depends on whether it is a bunch of files in a folder, or one file.
    8. Now the file/files should be appear in the movie tab. Drag and drop it/them onto your iPod.
    NOTE: YOU HAVE SELECTED MANUALY MANAGE MUSIC AND MOVIES. THIS MEANS THAT YOU MUST EJECT YOUR IPOD BEFORE DISCONECTING IT. To do this click the eject icon next to your iPod in the source list.

  • Can't find audiobook downloaded directly to ipod touch.  Bypassing itunes.

    I have transferred an audiobook from an on-line library to my computer to my ipod touch. I can't see it in the ipod touch but when I go to transfer it again it says it is already on the device. It is a WMA audiobook and it bypasses itunes. I can't download it to itunes. Any ideas?

    you can change the four options that you get at the bottom of the music app by going to 'more' then hitting 'edit' in the top left, drag the four you want to the bottom.

  • Music files etc stored on the ipod but not in itunes - how do I move them?

    When I open itunes and connect my ipod mini the ipod appears in the source list uner device, on the left hand side of the screen, but the only way I can access my music, podcasts and playlists is by 'right clicking' on the ipod under 'device' in the source screen - I can then access my music,etc but they do not appear under 'playlists' in the source screen (it appears that the music etc is not stored or kept in itunes). How can I move these files from my ipod into itunes?

    If you have music on the iPod that isn't on your computer, the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
    The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward. You can read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes

    There is also a manual method of accessing the iPod's hard drive and copying songs back to iTunes on Windows or a Mac. The procedure is a bit involved and won't recover playlists but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod

  • Deleting songs that show up on the ipod but not in itunes

    Hi all, I've have a problem with a few songs that I loaded onto my ipod. For some reason 1 song was duplicated and another I'm pretty sure I deleted already. For some reason they are on my ipod but don't appear in itunes when connected so I can't delete them the normal way. I have tried deleting all the songs off the ipod and then loading them on again but they don't want to be deleted. Is there any other way of deleting the songs from the ipod or reformating the ipod.
    Thanks

    I think manually. I add a playlist to the ipod, transfer the songs over and when I'm finished I press that triangle button next to the ipod name and then it loads the songs, I think thats what it does??

  • My computer says my songs are loaded on the ipod, but there isn't anything

    I got an iPod mini for Christmas. I followed the instructions to get everything set up on the computer (I already had iTunes). When I connect my iPod, it says all of the songs are already downloaded to my iPod and the "updates are complete". When I disconnect my iPod, there aren't any songs there. If I scroll through the settings, it says "0 songs", but when I connect my iPod to iTunes, it says there is 11 hours of songs there (I have the songs uploaded to the computer, but I cannot get them onto my iPod).
    I tried to reset my iPod, restore it, reload and update iTunes, everything else that is suggested to fix it. My computer says the songs are on my iPod, but my iPod says there are 0 songs. How do I get the songs loaded?

  • I am having difficulty finding ringtones I have downloaded from my computer to my I phone 5.  The individual files can be found by search on the library but there is no listing of them and have not transferred back to phone from I Tunes

    I cannot find ringtones in my library that I transferred from my desktop although I can find them in a search of the library.  I can't get them to transfer back to the phone from ITunes.

    All the ringtones show up in I Tunes under "tones" on the left side.  They also come up under the Ringtones Icon on my phone.  But they are not on the ring tones list when I go to edit a contact...just the default ringtones are listed

  • HELP PLEASE! CANT HEAR THE VIDEOS ON THE IPOD

    Please help me, i finally figured out how to put videos on the ipod, but the problem now is that the videos are without sound, i cant hear them please help me im desperate

    Your source files are probably one of the "muxed" types -- with audio and video information interspersed in a single data stream. You will need a converter that is MPEG based to transcode the file to an intermediate format which contains separate audio and video information. Then this intermediate file can easily be converted to iPod compatible file by most "common" file type converters. Some applications with perform this double-conversion in a seamless process, but most of these types are not free.
