Can't Transfer Video to iPod

I have an 160 gb iPod Classic (format Windows 8) and cannot transfer video podcasts from iTunes to my iPod. I have verified I have the current version of iTunes and iTunes says my iPod has version 2.0.4 which it says is the current version. I can play video podcasts from "NOVA Science Video Podcast", "Science Channel Video" and "Science Friday Video Podcast" on iTunes but they won't transfer to my iPod Classic. I have noticed the videos create mp4 files on my local hard drive. I have tried the option on iTunes to "Create New Version" and then select "Create iPod or iPhone Version" and the video still won't transfer to my iPod Classic. What should I do to make these podcasts transfer to my iPod Classic?

I figured it out. I went to play the video directly from iTunes rather than trying to transfer it to the iPod. I got a message I am not authorized, just like before. But this time it asked me if i want to authorize it. I clicked yes, obviously and voila...successful authorization. Now I can play it on my computer and iPod. Sorry for wasting everyone's time with this.

Can't transfer videos to ipod / video settings don't show up in itunes

hi everyone, i have a very frustrating problem.
i am a college student and have my ipod synced with the computer in the dorm but am home for the summer so am using my parents' computer. i installed the ipod video software and ran the 3-23-06 ipod update, but was unable to transfer videos to the ipod (even though they are in the correct format - i tried the "convert selection for ipod" thing and itunes didn't because it said it was already in a correct format.
so i uninstalled itunes and quicktime, and reinstalled, hoping it would work. however the problems remain. i cannot drag videos into my ipod (even though they are successfully added to my library and are in the correct format). additionally, whenever i go to the ipod settings window, there is no video tab, i have installed all the requisite software and have the latest itunes version, and have windows service pack 2 as well, so i dont see why it doesnt work... i meet all the requirements and have installed everything necessary... does anyone have any ideas as to why this problem is occurring and what i can do to solve it? theres no point to having a video ipod if you cant send any videos to it - anyone know what might be causing the problem?
thanks,
scagneas

Hmmm that is weird. Have you gone into your Ipod options and made sure under video, that you DO NOT have "do not update videos" selected. If that is not the problem then try this.
Make a new playlist to hold your videos in your Ipod. Then under "videos" in your Ipod options select "Automatically update selected playlist only", and then select the playlist that you created to hold your videos and click "ok". After you do that put the videos into your library, then from your library click and drag the videos into the playlist you created to hold your Ipod. Then update your Ipod and you should have them on their.

Can't transfer video to ipod classic

I recently added 6 new videos to my Itunes library. When I tried to manually transfer them to my Ipod Classic only 1 of the 6 shows up on my Ipod. When I drag any of the other ones over it shows the little green plus sign, but never has the spinning circle that shows it's adding it to the Ipod. All of the videos are the same format and all will play through itunes. I tried resetting the ipod, but no help. Any suggestions?

I figured it out. I went to play the video directly from iTunes rather than trying to transfer it to the iPod. I got a message I am not authorized, just like before. But this time it asked me if i want to authorize it. I clicked yes, obviously and voila...successful authorization. Now I can play it on my computer and iPod.

Can't transfer video to iPod either, but different problem. :(

So I just got my iPod and am trying to put mpgs that I've got on my computer on the pod. I know that I'm supposed to put the file in iTunes and then convert the selection, but when I do I get an error message (-3000, which is an Invalid Component ID). I've just started messing with this but any advice or help would be great. Thanks.

Try Opening the file in question with Quicktime. Once Open, see if it plays normally, then rewind it to the beginning. Go to Export (not sure if it's under File or Edit) and export the file to iPod format. Takes a few minutes to convert and export. Then transfer it to your iPod the usual way...

HT1535 how can I transfer videos from my itune library to my friend's ipod

how can I transfer videos that I've made at home, and that I converted so that I could play them on my ipod, which are now in my Itunes library, to my friend's ipod, without erasing all the stuff on his ipod?

Email the files to the friend to import to their iTunes library.
Copy the files to a flash drive to be imported to the iTunes library on their computer.
Burn the files to a CD/DVD.
Any of a variety of options that in no way involve connecting your friends iPod to your computer.

You import them into your iTunes Move library and then sync them to your iPod
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
You may need a thrid-party progtam to convert them to a compatible formation.

How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

Hi
I have bought my iPhone 3G yesterday. I have found out how to transfer music from iTunes however i can't transfer videos. I'm selecting the videos i want to transfer on the videos tab after i chose my iphone from the side menu and pressing apply. iTunes says that its syncing my iphone but it doesnt transfer the videos.
Lately i have found out a function on the advanced menu for movies as "create iphone or ipod version". When i used that it transfered that video to my iPhone however the sound was completely lost besides that action takes too much time(around 10 mins for a 3 min video and i have a pretty strong computer).
How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

One thing I'd recommend is that you make sure the video/audio you're trying to transfer falls within the guidelines listed in the 'Video' section here:
http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
What's most likely happening is that the file is not converted as such so when you try to transfer it, it's wanting to convert it but is unable to for any number of reasons.
There's software out there that might make this easier for you but I can't recommend anything specifically.

I can't put videos on ipod 30g

Hello:
I have an ipod 30g but I can't transfer videos from my computer to the ipot only the videos that I buy from itunes, and I bought the quick time 7 pro to convert my videos but it dosen't work or maybe I don't know how to do it, can any one help me with that?
Thanks

As Jeff pointed out, the Videora iPod Converter (free) is a Windows specific application that you should probably install if for no other reason that to convert "muxed" (single audio/video stream multimedia) formats. However, since you have already paid for QT Pro, I don't suggest you simply toss it away. While QT Pro is very slow when using the dedicated "Movie to iPod (320x240)" export option, it can also be used with the "Movie to MPEG4" manual preset collection to enter settings which can be much faster. In addition, QT Pro employs a gernerally "tight" compression strategy which may come in handy with some movie content. Basically, different converters work somewhat differently and sometimes one works better than another with a particular movie or if a single application is used, will need to be "tweaked" to operate at its best. So it is always a good idea to have more than one converter available if needed. After a fair amount of use you will likely gravitate to one application for general use based on the file types you use most often and their content.

How can we transfer games from ipod 4 to a different ipod 4

how can we transfer games from ipod 4 to a different ipod 4??

Follow the instructions here or here; using the first set of instructions then requires syncing the second device with the iTunes library containing the content. If you want to transfer the game data as well, perform a backup and restore.

How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening.

How can I transfer video taken with my iPhone to my iPad WITHOUT using a computer or iTunes? I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone to take pics and video, then come back to the hotel room and use my iPad to edit/store each evening. I don't want to use my iPad to take the video...too large/bulky. And I WON'T have a computer with me...I purchased the iPad to take with me so I could use the RDC to my home computer and avoid taking my computer at all. Is this possible?

here is a cheaper solution than camera kit and a lot easier if you have WIFI available.
I use the PhotoSync APP (I think its a $1.99) will transfer videos and photos over WIFI to any other IOS device or even PC/MAC. Great app since I like doing video and photos on my IPHONE and transfer to IPAD2 without synching through computer or doing cloud based storage.
You can even send photos/videos from your MAC/PC to your IOS devices that way too. Makes it so much easier.
