  • Help!!! I cant put videos on my iPod!!

    i cant put videos on my iPod, i tried everything. yes, they are .mov files. Yes, my iPod IS connected to the computer and iTunes did recognize it.
    please help!! why is it not working???

    The parameters given are all within specification. However, you have not stated what your average video data rate is. (This may give some indication as to whether or not you have exceeded the iPod player's playback capability.) You have also not indicated the audio data rate nor the sampling rate. (This may provide an indication as to whether or not you are using the low complexity music profile.) Since you did not indicate the application/preset used, there could be other problems. For instance, if you use the QT "Movie to QuickTime" export, then I would have to ask if your audio was in the VBR or CBR mode.

  • I have the latest itunes, i cant put videos even if they are in mp4

    I have the same problem.  I haven't been able to find any suggestions or solutions.  I found a free program called CopyTrans Manager that allows me to put videos onto my iTouch.  You can download it at http://www.copytrans.net/.  I have been using it for the last few days now and it has worked great.

    I think iPod requires special settings when your captured video is rendered to the .mp4 (AAC/AVC) format. I use SONY Vegas 7 video editor which uses the Mainconcept .mp4 encoder (http://www.mainconept.com). Everything is automatic and it has worked flawlessly for me. Just select the templates specifically for iPod video. One is 320x240. Use this if you are not going to output your iPod to a TV. The other setting is 640X480. This takes significantly more memory but gives excellent quality if you output the iPod video to a TV.
    Also, I think that Quick Time Pro (upgrade from Quick Time free program for $30 US) can convert and re-save video files to iPod format (not sure about this). Other video editing programs probably have iPod rendering feature built-in or available on web.
    I wouldn't blame Apple. Video output formats are, in my unqualified opinion, very complex since each of many different file formats can be encoded using numerous settings to satisfy specific user and hardware needs. Apple probably chose their format based on widest compatibility (downloaded videos, PodCasts, etc.) Note however that not all Podcasts are compatible with iPod.

  • I CANT PUT VIDEOS IN MY IPOD

    i hav an iPod Video 30GB
    and i've been trying to put videos in for a while.
    i converted the videos to MP4 nd the video went in my iPod but with no image. no Video just sound.
    does anyone know how to solve this problem?
    if u do, please let me know.
    THANK YOU

    Did you "customize" the vid? Meaning did you alter the dimensions beyond the vidpod capacity?
    I think it is 320 x 240 using H.264 Encoding.
    Though there is a new codec for 640 x 480 H.264 BLC (Baseline Low Complexity)
    I think if you have quicktime pro for windows it should convert fime.

  • Cant put videos on my iPod...? Also, how do I delete photos?

    I just got a 30G iPod video, and first, put all 2440 of my songs on it, then some photos. First question:
    When I go to put a friends episode on the iPod, it takes about 2 hours to convert one episode, then sometimes it says the iPod cannot play the video due to some file type or something, (before it attempts to transfer it to the iPod), then when I select that file to sync to the iPod, it says that it will remove all my photos and music, and replace them with the video? Do I have to put videos on it before my songs or photos??? If not, how do I put videos on my iPod without have to remove all my songs first?
    Second question:
    How do I delete photos from my iPod once I put them on the iPod. I put about 4 sets of pictures on it, I wanted to delete some, but couldn't find the option anywhere in the iTunes program to do so. Can anyone help me out??
    Thanks!!
    Darren

    "Second question: How do I delete photos from my iPod once I put them on the iPod"
    Remove the photo from the folder that you linked to when you set the preference "synchronize photos from" and update the iPod. For example, if the iPod is getting the pictures from the folder "My Pictures," remove or delete them from My Pictures. A tip to prevent all your photos going on the iPod create a folder on your hard drive called called "iPod Photos" or something similar. Under the photo preferences for the iPod, point iTunes to "synchronize photos from" and update from there. If you keep a dedicated folder like this, you won't need to edit your normal pictures folder just for the iPod and you can add and remove picture from it whenever you need to.

  • How to Put videos in ipod nano 5th gen

    Can anyone help me how to put video here i what do i need to insltall or what should i do????its my first time having ipod so dont know what to do i can sync music but i cant sync videos can anyone help me...

    The nano can be used as a flash drive by going to My Computer then opening the ipod.Once in you will find a file called DCIM. Inside that file you should find a file called 000APPLE that is where video is stored onto your nano. You can just drag and drop it onto your computer. And if you computers players are up to date you should just be able to play them like normal on your computer then. Other wise you have to find out what software on your computer works with the sync option in itunes. I do not know what PC software that is because I have only pulled video off my nano and dont need to sync.

  • Does anyone know how to put videos on ipod nano

    I cant find out how to put videos on my IPOD NANO....its says u could and i know someone who does so i know it is possible but how do i do it.

    I don't know who told you that you could put videos on your nano but I wouldn't rely on them for any stock tips either.
    Nanos don't support video.
    Sorry.

  • Cant put music on ipod?

    ok so i have about 300 songs on my ipod and alot more room to use up. i bought 3 new songs off itunes and i tryed to drag it from my purcused music to my ipod play list. the circle with a line inside of it showed meaning i cant put it there. so i put it into my library and tryed it again. still doesnt work. what am i doing wrong?

    I'm confused also!! : )
    With manual transfer, the list of songs on your iPod are not "shadowed" and this allows you to edit the songs on the iPod without making the same changes to the songs in iTunes. If you want to make changes in iTunes, and have those changes reflected on your iPod, then as I said earlier, you have to do it twice. Once on the iPod, and once in iTunes. For many people, manual transfer is cumbersome.
    With automatic transfer the list of songs on your iPod are "shadowed", so you cannot make changes directly on your ipod, you must do it through iTunes. Any changes you make in iTunes will be reflected on your iPod the next time you sync it. Similarly, any ratings you give a song on your iPod will be reflected in iTunes. This does not happen with manual transfer.
    If you want everything to be updated on your iPod automatically, then you should select "automatically update all songs and playlist" from the iPod preferences menu.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "when i go to make a new playlist, it is not indented under the ipod like my old lists used to be"
    Auto transfer is the most convenient method, and less messy method in my opinion.
    With regard to your iTrip, I'm afraid I can't offer any advice as I don't use one so am not familiar with it.

  • Cant drag video onto ipod downloaded from itunes

    Hi
    Ive been downloading videos from itunes, for example "Joe Cartoon" podcast. I got the first few episodes onto my ipod fine, since then though i cant get videos onto the ipod. They download fine from itunes but when i try to drag them onto the ipod i get the black circle with the line through it. ive checked the info and they are mpeg4. Does anyone else have this problem or have any solutions?!
    thanks in advance

    Hello mizgeministarz,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I only have a few suggestions for you, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to at least try. Have you tried accessing these TV shows outside the playlist they reside in? Just access them from the main list of TV Shows if at all possible or if that isn't what you are doing currently.
    It might not hurt to also try to restore the iPod and start from scratch allowing fresh copies of the TV Shows to sync over to your iPod. There may have been a syncing issue that corrupted your TV Shows. If that isn't the case, your iPod is having trouble with the video playback.
    Hope this helps.

    Go into your ipod preferences and check the box that will automaticly add the videos to your itunes video library. This is, if you are transferring a home video or a movie. After the movie has been saved to your libraryI, just drag your selection to the ipod icon. If you are buying a video off of itunes, it should save to your itunes library anyway. Hope this helps.

  • Help with putting videos on Ipod

    Hey all. I'm a little new to this. I'm having trouble putting videos on my Ipod. When I try to put them in i get a message saying "Some of the songs in the Itunes music libary, including the song "...", were not copied to the IPod because they cannot be played on this IPod.
    Maybe they're the wrong file type? It does this for every video I have. How can I solve this problem? Thanks for your help!

    you need to convert the videos either to .mov or .mp4. either will be compatible for the ipod. you need to use 3rd party software not supported by apple.windows users have had trouble or success using this software.

  • Can't put videos on ipod

    i have bought a ipod video 30gb. but when i try to copy any videos into my ipod. there is a message that is doesn't works. at this site they say that i have to convert my video with iTunes. and when i do this, i can copy the video into my ipod, but there is no sound. what is wrong?
    thank you

    Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
