Converted home videos to itunes not working with ipod touch

So I finally was able to convert some home movies to itunes but now they will not work with my ipod touch. I get a error message saying "can not be played on this ipod". I also can't get the movies to work with my ipod video (classic) either, how do I fix this? And yes there is enough space for the videos.

if the files are in iTunes, select one (or all) and choose +create iPod or iPhone version+ from the advanced menu. try syncing the newly created file(s) to your Touch.
what happens ?

Itunes not working with ipod tuch :(

Apple mobile device support doesnt download with itunes every time i download it. any idead?
thanks

I just bought a 32GB Touch yesterday...:) I had exactly the same problem. I reinstalled ITunes several times with the same result. Finally I uninstalled anything that had to do with Apple - Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour, QuickTime, and ITunes. Then I deleted ProgramData->Apple and Apple Computer, then I created a temp folder unde my user folder and moved "User"->AppData->Local->Apple and Apple Computer to the temp folder, then I moved "User"->AppData->LocalLow->Apple Computer to the temp folder, then I moved the "User"->AppData->Roaming->Apple Computer to the temp folder. Then I reinstalled ITunes. Then I ran ITunes and the IPod was recognized and I registered it, etc. Then I quit ITunes and copied ITunesPrefs from the temp Folder (Local->Apple Computer->ITunes) to "User"->AppData->Local->Apple Computer->ITunes). That way I could rerun ITunes with my previous settings for podcast, music, etc. Sounds like it's complicated, but I just wanted to save the AppData stuff just incase . Everything is working well now. Hope this helps. cottongd

ITunes not compatible with iPod Touch 4th gen (problem with Windows 64 bit)

So I've been trying for about a month or so to sync my iPod Touch to iTunes but ever since i updated it to iTunes 11 it has been saying that i need to uninstall it and install the 64 bit version. I've done that twice this week alone and its still not working, saying again that i need the 64 bit which I already have. I've ended up completely erasing previous iTunes data to see if that would help, but that just ended up being more hassle. I don't think its just my iPod, because it refuses to sync my iPad 2 manually as well.
Please help me, i'm at my wits end.

You are very perceptive - has nothing to do with your ipod, has to do with your Windows. You can try couple things.
One - reinstall itunes "apple way" and when downloading disable your anitvirus.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
please make sure that you completed not only step one, but also step two.
Then disable your antivirus and go to step three.
iTunes 11.0.5 for Windows 64 - Apple - Support
if that does not work go to thing number two.
Two - come back here with precise text of the message, see if anybody had it before.

ITunes not syncing with iPod Touch 5th gen

Yesterday I purchased an iPod Touch 5th generation, and have it linked to my MacBook Pro using iTunes 12. I am running OSX 10.9.5, and cannot figure out why it is syncing all the songs I have stored in my cloud, when the "sync only selected songs" box is checked. On my ipod screen I can see all of the songs I've ever purchased, with the cloud and arrow.
Does anyone know how to keep these songs from appearing if they are not checked as "to be synced" on iTunes?
Thank you!

Yes.

Sony docking station speaker not working with iPod touch

We bought a Sony docking station for the iPod touch (4th generation) we got our son for his birthday. The speaker on the docking station works when playing the radio, but not the iPod touch. We returned the docking station for another, and we are having the same problem. Which is why I am pretty sure the problem is the iPod touch and not the docking station. The docking station actually will charge the iPod, just not project sound out of the speaker with the iPod. It will, however, project sound out of the speaker when using the radio.
Is there anything simple I could be missing in settings? I can't figure this out. TIA!
Nick's mom

Use the communities search box in the upper right and search for
sony.
The go to advanced search and limit search to the the iPod touch forum.
Recently there has been several users posted here with the same problem with a Sony dock. I do not recall if it was solved.

Apple TV not working with Ipod Touch 2nd generation? No sound.

Has worked perfectly the past month and I can still stream youtube via the ipod touch with sound.
However I can no longer play music from ipod touch to Apple tv. Issue started about 10 days ago.
Could this be due to some updates?
Similar issue when trying to play from Spotify, used to work perfectly.
Thanks!

Have you tried restarting the iPod or the Apple TV yet.

Videos in Youtube not working for iPod touch?, Videos in Youtube not working for iPod touch?, Videos in Youtube not working for iPod touch?

Upgraded iTunes to ver.10 & verified it is current.... Updated iOS5 on iPod Touch3G & iPad-1 ~~ great, NOW the YouTube app won't PLAY videos.. Both mobile devices let me search for videos & displays a LIST of available videos... Once I touch or select a video to PLAY, the device attempts to download the video, but after about a 2 minute TIMEOUT, I get the message "UNKNOWN ERROR"... so frustrating.. same thing happens exactly on iPad_1 or iPod Touch3G....
I have booted my Wi-Fi router by turning it OFF & ON a couple of times to reload & reboot.. Didn't HELP.. I've tinkered with the settings on iTunes, changing the 128 bit transfer, de-select PLAY MOVIES & SYNCED.. then re-selected PLAY MOVIES & SYNCED. Nothing works.. I've searched Google, Bing, Yahoo answers, with NO definite FIX. I've seen a lot about JAILBREAKING an iPhone, etc. but I don't want to BREAK out of JAIL [ or UNLOCK a LOCKED phone or mobile device], I just want to PLAY YouTube videos... Is that so hard ? ? ? ? H E L P ? ? ? ?

Today 11/2/11 the YouTube function on my iPod & iPad1 are working correctly again, in fact, seems to be loading videos faster on my 4G Wi-Fi connection. APPLE must have corrected the glitch over Wi-Fi since I authorized iCloud access. Thank you APPLE for correcting this bug which was certainly 'bugging' me... KUDOS~!

Changes made in iTunes not syncing with iPod Touch

Anyone have suggestions on a strange issue. When I make changes in items on iTunes (ver 11.1.3.8), itunes appears to sync with the ipod, but the changes are not reflected on the ipod. iPod software is current. Many thanks for your advice.

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Wi Fi Not Working with IPOD Touch 4

Having trouble going wireless - put in correct password to WI FI account - it shows it is connected and has a signal but when I try and connect to the internet it says it is not connected....help!

It's probably a DHCP problem on your router. Check the IP address that you have by touching the ">" next to your network name (Settings > WiFi > your network name). If it starts with 169 then you were not assigned an IP address via DHCP and you will have no success on the internet. A possible solution may be to reset your network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings) and power down and restart your router before trying again.
If this doesn't work please provide some more detail on what you see in the network detail.

Will FM receiver work with iPod Touch?

Hi there! I haven't posted for a while...
I really want an iPod Touch, and have been doing my research online...one of the main complains that keeps coming up is that the iPod Touch doesn't have a volume button. I have a 1st gen iPod Nano, and for that I have an FM receiver (Apple brand, not some cheapo junk). If I can use that with a Touch, then there would be no problem, but the new iPod receiver box doesn't mention that it works with the Touch. If anyone has tried it and could tell me, that would be awesome.
Just one last thing...I also read that people were having problems with the colour black on their screens, that it appeared all shimmery. Has a patch come through for that, or has it been fixed?
Thank you in advance!
Alex

- No, Apple's iPod Radio Remote does not work with iPod touch. Look for compatible devices on the online Apple Store.
- I don't think a patch can solve it, but the screen problem was only in the beginning, I don't think it's still an issue.

I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device. I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete. Some titles are black and some are gray.

I converted some songs in iTunes to work with an eMusic device. I'd like to delete them, but I'm not sure which of the duplicated songs to delete. Some titles are black and some are gray.

let's just doublecheck some things quickly. do any of the affected songs play in itunes at the moment? if so, when you play them, do they ask to be authorised?
if so, does the authorisation go through successfully, or do you get an error message? (if you get an error message, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)
if the authorisation seems to go through successfully, with the authorised songs sync to the ipod?
