  • Can't get videos on iPod

    I got the iPod with video and when I first started using it, any videos in my library automatically would sync to my ipod. Well, I deleted a few videos from my library, thinking that when I plug in the iPod it would delete those few videos from the ipod. What I found is now that I have NO videos on my ipod although there are several in the library, and the Video and Photos tab in iPod preferences AREN'T THERE ANYMORE!!! I can't change any preferences in iTunes that have to do with video, and I don't know how to get the video functionality back, and get videos on my iPod! Any suggestions would be great...

    I just wanted to let everyone know I found a solution. I could never reset my iPod with the iPod software on my main computer (with my library on it). I moved the iPod to a different computer and ran the restore function through the iPod software. It erased everything, and set it back to factory settings. Now, when I plugged it back into my main computer, iTunes worked correctly! I'm not sure what happened in the first place, but this is my only suggestion if anyone else runs into this problem. It seems to be a problem with iPod rather than iTunes

  • Can't get video to iPod

    I have successfully converted a video i want into MEG4. i put it in itunes, it's appears under "videos" and under the subheaders "all" and "movies". but when i update my ipod, the video is nowhere to be found. also, i have video podcasts and downloaded tv shows successfully uploaded onto my ipod that work fine: it's the videos off my computer that i convert that don't work. Please Help
    p.s. Why the **** doesn't apple have a customer service number to call/ why is that number so hard to find? i just want to talk to someone. talk about a new leap in commercial laziness...

    well, i figured it out. aparently there's a difference between "MPEG4" and "30GIG Gen5 iPod MPEG4" i have to specify between those tow formats and "60GIG Gen5 iPod MPEG4" in my conversion software. (i use Xilisoft Video converter and it's very easy). but now everything works.
    No thanks to apple tech support.... stay tuned for a write up on my experience with apple tech support; an experience that makes me never to want to buy anything apple/mac again.

  • HT1454 Can not get video out from my ipod touch 3rd gen. Any ideas? It should nt be diffiicult to do this on the 21 st century, or not?

    After having spent EUR 130 on cables from apple, i still can not get video out from my ipod touch 3rd gen. Any ideas? It should nt be diffiicult to do this on the 21 st century, or not?

    Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media.  You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else.  As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
    You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC.  Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

  • STILL can't get Videos into 5G iPod I give up I'm bringing it back

    I have the Black 30GB, after a week of trying iSquint , Handbrake ,Movies for my iPod and now MPEG Streamclip I still can't get videos in my iPod . I give up, it's scratched to bits and I handle it with extreme care . This was the worst $300.00 I've ever spent .

    I had trouble with that too, but figured it out. Here are some things to check:
    1.) Preferences in iTunes with the iPod connected. I put mine on automatic update of all podcasts, just to make sure nothing is missed.
    2.) On the iPod, go to Settings > Main Menu > Videos > On
    3.) On the iPod, got to Videos > Video Settings > TV Out OFF, Widescreen OFF, TV Signal (in US is NTSC, in Europe is PAL).
    After I configured #3, all worked. I'm not sure the widescreen setting makes a difference, but I do know the TV settings do.
    I think you won't have any problems if you go down this checklist. Too bad they don't mention it in Apple support.

  • Can't get video chat to work outside of LAN...

    Hello,
    I can't get video chat to work.
    All computers, LAN and WAN are running the latest iChat under 10.4 (including latest updates).
    Within our LAN, via Bonjour, everything is fine.
    I'm now trying to set up an offsite Intel iMac (10.4) and I can't connect via video chat with them.
    I've had this problem in the past and eventually gave up (so much for "it just works" - I've spent the last 10+ years dealing with Macs and Mac-based networking, I can't imagine "my dad" figuring this all out). Trying again with fingers crossed...?
    If someone could help, it'd be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kristin.
    The studio router/firewall is a SonicWall TZ 170 Standard.
    This router has a static IP.
    All suggested ports on the SonicWall are set up correctly to allow in/out from our LAN.
    All computers on the LAN have static IP addresses.
    Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
    OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
    No iChat add-ons on any computers.
    Internet connection speed = 7404 kb/s
    The offside router/firewall is a LinkSys WRT54G
    This router does not have a static IP.
    DMZ is ON and set to the only computer connected to it.
    Computer has a static IP address.
    Quicktime streaming settings set as suggested.
    OS X Firewall on all computers = OFF.
    No iChat add-ons on computer.
    Internet connection speed = 5116 kb/s
    If any more information is required to help you help me, just let me know!

    Does the TZ170 have UPnP or Port Triggering then ?
    I can not see that it does here
    Opening the ports in the manner listed on that link will only allow one computer (IP) to use the open ports.
    The Linksys is router and you have not mentioned what the modem is doing at that end.
    Why not use UPnP here ? The Linksys does it (on the Administration page)
    Most likely this needs the Respond to Anonymous Pings checked on the Security page.

  • I can't get video attachments in gmail to play on my macbook pro.  2 month old macbook pro running lion. says format not supported

    I can't get video attachments in gmail to play on my macbook pro.  Says format not supported. 

    What kind of video?  There are dozens of formats, some don't play on a Mac unless you have the right plug-ins for Quicktime.  There are some things you should download to help you out. 
    http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm
    http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html
    These should cover EVERYTHING you'd ever encounter (though maybe not).  Frankly, if it's not H.264 or w4v (or both), it doesn't belong on your mac. 

  • Can't get Videos to run on the Internet

    Can't get Videos to run on the Internet. Clicked to watch a video and nothing happened. Sales person in Apple store said to get "Flip4Mac", free edition, which is what they used in store as the files on this site and in Windows Media. I downloaded it and I think I installed it. At least it said is was installed and updated. But when I went to my Son's favorite website, Nascar.com, when he clicked on a video to watch nothing happened. Anyone have any idea what's wrong?
    Thanks in advance for the help.....Nancy

    First off, I'll list all the items that I use to play, just about, all media on the web:
    Flip4Mac
    (as you might have found out, Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported)
    VLC
    Real Player
    Perian
    Adobe Flash
    Streamclip
    All that being said, there is still some unplayable A/V content on the web. Even though it's listed as WMV, they are really processed with a codec that is underneath that wrapper, and unsupported by any of the above listed apps and plug ins. If any content like this is found on a high profile site, and is in wmv format, then the Flip4Mac people request to be told, so they can see if compatibility can be written in on their next update.
    Generally, video playback on a Mac can be somewhat complex. Would be nice if everyone used Quicktime, but I don't see that happening on the PC end of things anytime soon. So, we'll all just have to use what we can to view content.
    RE: learning Leopard....there are some tutorials on the Apple support site, but I've always found the suppot discussions to be pretty helpful. I've never been one to get a lot from manuals. Mostly, I get my knowledge from working with the apps I need, and getting advise from others who have done whatever. Occasionally, there's a class at the college that you might look into. Anyway, feel free to ask any questions you want on this forum, or drop me an email. [email protected]

  • How can I get videos (Hulu) on my laptop to appear on my TV?

    How can I get videos (Hulu) on my laptop to appear on my TV?  I already have the correct cable cord, but all I can see on my TV is the start-up screen.

    Your videos are saved in Photos. There is no storage capability in the Apple TV. You can only view them by streaming the videos via Air Play. Use AirPlay to wirelessly stream content from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    I don't know which iPad you have so this may not apply but if you want transfer your videos to your iPad follow the steps in this article: iMovie for iOS (iPad): Transfer video and photos between devices

  • Prior to installing iOS 6 on my iPhone 4, I could stream video and audio via "Air Video" and "Stream to Me" from my PC, to my TV via a HDMI adapter. Now I can only get video and no audio.

    I have been able to stream,via wi-fi, TV shows, movies and music from my laptop through a HDMI adapter via my iPhone 4, to my television. I use mainly "Air Video" but also use "Stream to Me", both with the same results. Since the update to iOS6 this is not possible. I can still get video but now no audio. Help me!

    I too am having this very problem.  I have an iPhone 4S that is less than one year old.  Prior to updating my iOS firmware, I was able to record and transfer video to my PC and view it with a variety of programs without any modifications.  Since updating the firmware, all videos that have been taken are not viewable on my PC.  I can hear the audio associated with the video, but the video is blank.  I can transfer the file off my phone using the Windows transfer tool.  Then sync the video back to my phone and it works just fine.  I tried emailing the video to myself, that did not work.  I rebooted my computer, no luck.  I reinstalled QuickTime, still isn't working.  I can still watch the videos that were made with iOS 5.1.1 but nothing made with iOS 6.
    I have been successful with the following procedure:  Once the video is transfered from the phone to my PC, I change the extension from .MOV to .MPG and this makes the video viewable with Windows Media Player; however, if the video is shot in a portrait orientation, it displays sideways in WMP as a landscape orientation.  I have been able to then run the video through Microsofts MovieMaker program to right the video 90 degrees but the image comes out a little squatty like it's out of scale.  In either case, it serves the purpose and I can export it to another .MPG format that I can then run through Sony Vegas and edit as I see fit.  While it works, this is a huge hassle and I shouldn't have to do it.
    Does anyone know of anything that is working?  Are there new codecs somewhere that windows users need to get a hold of?

    -->Click HERE<--  Does item "B" (Turn video on/off) in the last topic on the page help?
    You control the camera for Skype from within Skype, so  Skype must be running to running to make video work.

  • Can't get video in ichat

    Everytime i try to log on to Video Chat, I get disconnected with the message /video chat is disconnected can't get video through camera currently using an isight camera. I can get video with photo booth, and quicktime. I have tried everything, even call apple tech with no help,called my isp to confirm no firewall stopping the video. Please help. My DSL Modem is a netopia 3346.
    <post edited by host>

    Hi,
    This pic is from a 3347 http://flickr.com/photos/90943061@N00/2325073038/
    If you have a similar firewall setting in the 3346 then set it to Off.
    Just so I am clear.
    You can log on to the AIM servers and Text chat ?
    You get the pop up Log thing in Video or Audio Only chats ?
    The Written message on the failed chat window is "Can't Get Video from Camera" ?
    You have an External iSight Camera.
    On what OS and computer was the iSight last used ?
    Has it had a Firmware update ?
    (this may have been missed plugging straight into Leopard.)

  • Cisco 831 and "Can't get video from the camera."

    I'm running a Cisco 831 router with ios 12.4(5a) installed. Every time I try to initiate a video chat with a computer going through the router, I get the "Can't get video..." error. It works fine with computers on my internal network and if I bypass the Cisco router and plug straight into my Cable modem.
    I've covered every conceivable TCP/UDP port being open (per numerous pages re: port 5060, 5190, etc.) and have even gone as far as testing with "permit UDP any any" and "permit TCP any any" at the top of the rules. No luck.
    I've been reading about the possibly needing to "unbind" SIP (port 5060). Is this something that a Cisco 831 router would require? The router doesn't seem to respond to any of the documented Cisco command re: VoIP and does not have any phone support that I'm aware of.
    If anyone has any info that can help me get his up-and-running, I'd be much obliged.
    Thanks,
    Matheau

    Hi Kcritchie,
    It will most likely look like that. But in this case it should be on the UDP protocol.
