Can watch movies in Quicktime, but cannot import or watch in iTunes

Hello all,
I'm currently on Windows 7 Ultimate (64) and using the current versions of both iTunes and Quicktime. I'm currently trying to import all of my movies so I can use watch them on my Apple Tv.
Here's the catch: I was able to place a TV show in my library, but am unable to place movies. They are the same file extension. (.mp4)
I can watch the files in Quicktime no problem, just cannot seem to get them into my iTunes. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Chris

Which I will do, but I still wish to understand why it would dump everything except for iTunes-specific purchases.  Is there some kind of coding in the files that expresses as coming from Apple, which any other music file does not have?  Also, some of this stuff I just don't have anymore, so if it is still hiding somewhere I don't see, or if it can be recovered somehow, that would be pretty cool, too.  Main question, though, is "WHY".

    I may be misreading what you are trying to do but you don't import libraries via the import window. You use File->Import->Library..
    If this doesn't resolve your problem post back with more detail of what you are doing and what is happening.

  • HT201611 probably will never rent anything from itunes again. I rented a movie on iphone but cannot watch it on my ipad or macbook. this is ridiculous..and i am dissapointed. and the 2 days expiration is another absurd thing. again, dissapointed.

    probably will never rent anything from itunes again. I rented a movie on iphone but cannot watch it on my ipad or macbook. this is ridiculous..i am very disappointed. and the 2 days expiration is another absurd thing. bc i typically dont have the time to watch a 1 hour and 30 minutes movie but will watch a little every morning for a week to finish. this 2 day expiration force me to waste my time watching the movie. very, very dissapointed. next time ill rent from google. this kind of mistake should not be made by apple.

    Okay, you need to contact support definitely about what's going on. Here is a form that will send an e-mail into support for you:

    As far as the prices, the difference is likely the laptop version is the SD version and the iPad one is available in HD. That's the only reason you'll see a price difference. It has nothing to do with the device with movies/movie rentals. Apps yes, these no.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Tarskforce.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    The following article(s) may help you.

    LR 5.6 on Mac desktop all of a sudden will not read any card from any reader but will work on my laptop. I can work on previous images but not import new ones. Even if I create a catalog on laptop and import to my desktop on a thumb drive, the images are only accessible as long as the thumb drive is inserted.

    Sounds like you may need to repair the Disk Permissions on your drive where your images are stored.

  • CAN ACCOUNT FOR AN INVOICE BUT CANNOT PAY - PAY IN FULL GREYED OUT

    제품 : FIN_AP

    CAN ACCOUNT FOR AN INVOICE BUT CANNOT PAY - PAY IN FULL GREYED OUT
    ====================================================================
    Problem Description
    환경 : Oracle Payables 11.5.8
    Module : APXINWKB - Invoice Workbench
    문제 : AP invoice입력 화면에 있는 Action 버튼을 눌렀을때, "Pay In Full"
    Option이 회색이어서, Payment작업을 할 수 없다.
    (Payment화면에서도 해당 invoice가 나타나지 않음)
    재현방법 :
    1.Invoice Approval를 Enable
    (Navigate as belows Setup--->Payables
    Option/Invoice Tab/check the Require Invoice Approval checkbox
    2.Invoice를 생성 (USD 100)
    3.Invoice를 Validate
    4.Action버튼을 눌렀을때, "Create Accounting"과 "Pay in full"
    button이 회색으로 disable되었음을 확인
    5.Invoice Approval를 Disable
    (Navigate as belows Setup--->Payables
    Option/Invoice Tab/uncheck the Require Invoice Approval checkbox)
    6.다시 입력된 invoice를 조회하여 Action버튼을 눌렀을때,
    "Create Accounting"은 Enable되었으나, "Pay in full"은 여전히
    Disable되어 invoice를 Pay할 수 없음을 확인.
    원인 : 이 invoice는 Approval workflow에 의해 처리 되도록 Process되었다. 그렇기 때문에, Workflow상의 Approval이 이루어져야 완벽한 승인으로
    인식하기 때문에, 그 후에야나 Payment작업을 할 수 있게 된다.
    AME (Approvals Management)를 disable하기 전에, AP Approval Process상에
    또 다른 Invoice가 승인대기중인 것은 없는지 확인한다.
    Workaround
    아래의 update sql문은 검증되지 않은 것으로
    Oracle Support에게 먼저 연락한다.
    update ap_invoices_all
    set wfapproval_status = 'NOT REQUIRED'
    where invoice_id = &invoice_id;

    I'll steal my answer from this topic from a prior post.
    It's useful to know which versions of the software you are working with. I will assume you are on the latest release.
    If you are using a separate web server and application server and are not using Apache as the web server you need to deploy pieces of the Financial Management system. Please read page 52 of the following installation manual: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/epm_manual_deployment.pdf
    You can also deploy the HFM Web components directly to the Workspace server which may be a bit easier to setup.
    Once you have picked the chosen direction and made changes to HFM you will then need to re-deploy Workspace App Server and Web Configuration.

  • I can open my hotmail email but cannot reply or send new messages. this just started last week.

    I can open my hotmail email but cannot reply or send new messages. this just started last week. Don't know why not. Is this a Firefox issue or a Microsoft issue? 'Cause it's near impossible to get Microsoft to get back to me. Hope you can help me.

    I resolved both my problems.  The problems with Walgreens is that my own Frontier internet connection is very slow and will allow only minimal  downloads.  When I used a Verizon Hot Spot to download pictures they downloaded without any problem.  So I am working iwth Frontier to resolve my slow internet speed.  The problem with pictures be syncronized to a gallery was resolved by using the Help column and the pictures were easily deleted by following their instructions.
