Can the iPod (30 GB Video version) play animated .GIF files/pictures?

When I go into the pictures folder, it only shows the first frame. Can it play animations?

"Importing" .gif files is a very old QT Pro "trick" and was made available in the first "Pro" version of QT (3).
I still use the feature to add logos or other, older animations to some of my newer QT "movies".
Some of the older QT tricks can still be used today:

I've been focusing my skill (very little) on the QuickTime discussions pages but visit these "iPod" discussions pages every now and then.
Since the new iPod can also "do" the .mov format I thought I'd observe and comment for the newer users.
Happy New Year!
Oh, btw, QuickTime can also do some magic with your Photoshop files.

  • Can the ipod photo display video ?

    I have an ipod photo 60GB & i was wondering if it can display video if i updated its software & downloaded itunes 6.

    No. Not at this time. Technically, hackers have been able to get the photo to play video, but only when they installed Linux on their iPod, so not a real practical solution. That said, the screen on the photo is too small for video, so if you really want video best bet is to sell the photo and get a 5G. The screen is a LOT nicer and readable than another other iPod screen to-date.

  • Does the Apple TV play "animated" GIF files or just "static"?

  • Can Premiere Elements be used on an animated gif file?

    I am considering purchasing Premiere Elements but I need to know if one can use it to add effects to an animated gif file.
    For example, in Photoshop Elements one can add certain effects to a gif image, such as giving it certain textures or filters.
    Can one do the same kind of thing in Premiere Elements and if so can it be done to an animated gif file?
    Maybe a better way to ask this question is:  can you import an animated gif file into Premiere Elements and then manipulate it?  Run filters, etc.
    Thanks for your help.

    If you load your GIF into Premiere Elements 10, edit it, then share to an AVI file, you can then import the AVI file into GIF Movie Gear by Gamani, which will then create an animated GIF. I learned about this utility from a Microsoft tutorial on creating icons for Windows XP.
    http://www.gamani.com/product_icon.htm
    If you use Firefox and get redirected, try using Internet Explorer instead.
    After the trial period is over, it's $29.95US for 4 licences.
    When you share to an AVI file, you will want to select the Microsoft AVI item from the list, then click the advanced button to open up the dialog where you will need to select a codec and enter the frame size and frame rate. The codec will have to be one that GIF Movie Gear likes, so there may be some trial and error needed to get a good codec. I shared to an AVI after picking Xvid for the codec, which GIF Movie Gear imported.

    I purchased a video from iTunes but it will not sync to my iPod.  I get a message stating that the video "was not loaded to the iPod because iyt cannot be played on this iPod."  I tried to use the "create an iPod version" but the command is grayed out

    I was refering to the "sample rate", normally 44.1 KHz, the iPod might not be able to play tracks with a non-standard rate. Otherwise I'm not sure what the issue might be.

    It sounds like you may have a 2nd generation iPod Touch. If so, 4.2.1 is the highest iOS. Please note there was never a 2nd Generation 8gB version of the iPod Touch.

  • Can the iPod Touch play radio stations?

    Can the iPod Touch play radio stations? I have an older iPod and I use the Apple product (below) to listen to radio stations on it. I'm thinking of getting an iPod Touch and was wondering if there's any similar products that I can use for the iPod Touch, or even if there's app that would allow me to play radio stations. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA070G/D?fnode=MTY1NDA3NA&mco=MTU1NTExMA

    as already said, most (if not all) of the radio station apps require wifi access, which is fine if you just want to listen where you have wifi access (i.e. at home) but not so good if you want to listen out and about.
    i recently bought one of these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Roberts-Robi-DAB-iPod-adapter/dp/B000X24UOM
    which is brilliant, but i see you're in america, and i dont think you have DAB (digital) Radio over there. there may well be similar products out there though.

  • One of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the ipod because they cannot be played on this ipod

    i have been trying to figure what the problem with my ipod touch is, im downloading songs from a different source and not itunes store, recently i have had a msg being displayed at the end of synching 'some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the ipod because they cannot be played on this ipod'. however the songs play fine in itunes.
    i have re-installed itunes several times, deleted all my music and iported it again. retored my ipod and still i have the same msg. its only stating 8 songs so far that cannot be copied onto my ipod. please can someone help as ive tried everything that i can possibly do. thanks.

    Hello mobyash,
    Have you tried converting each of these 8 tracks to a different file format and seeing if they will then sync to your iPod.  See this Apple support document for information and instructions on how to convert a song to a different format.

  • What ios system can the IPod touch 4th gen. update to

    What ios system can the iPod touch 4th gen. update to?

    I wouldn't buy a second-gen iPod touch at any price now, and particularly not for only $50 less than a fourth-gen model. There are far too many apps that require a version of iOS newer than what a second-gen iPod can run. Up to you, though.

  • Can the ipod battery be damaged by freezing temperatures?

    can the ipod battery be damaged by freezing temperatures?

    From the "Tips and tricks to get the most out of your iPod's battery" article found at...
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61434
    It says...
    Keep iPod at room temperature
    iPod's battery works best when iPod is at room temperature, generally near 20° C, but you can use iPod anywhere between 0° to 35° C (about 32° to 95° F). If you have left iPod in the cold, let it warm up to room temperature before waking it from sleep. Otherwise, a low-battery icon may appear and iPod will not wake from sleep. If after warming up, iPod does not wake from sleep, connect the power adapter, and press the Menu and Play/Pause buttons until the Apple logo appears.
    which doesn't really address what happens if you freeze the iPod when not being used, but clearly you shouldn't run the iPod when it is at freezing temperature.
