Device naming and movie questions.

I got a 80 GB video ipod for Christmas, and am still learning everything. How do I change the "name" of my ipod? I also can't figure out how to download my movies to my ipod. I would greatly appreciate any help, especially with the movies, as I am going out of town this weekend, and would like to have something to watch. Thank you for your help.

Select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
Click on it's its name again.
The text box will open for editing.
Type a new name.

Ipod video and movie question?????

i get my movies from limewire and mp3 direct...can someone tell me how to change the frame rate of the video...from what i understand the frame rate has to be at least 29 to 30 frames per second.. to make the sound sync with the movie..how can i do this and should i do this before or after i convert the movie file with videora???

I had the same issue, however I used this program to transfer ...avi,mpg,wma..etc...;
http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
If the program is used the converted files will be in a folder called;
C:\Program Files\videoraipodConverter\vodeos
I'm pasting this from the Videora site, the settings worked for me when others didn't, enjoy:
Configuring videora converter
0) Start Videora iPod converter.
1) Click setup in the left nav.
1.5) Click the profiles tab.
2) Click new profile.
3) Now, configure that profile:
profile name: ipod
in the video settings section...
mode: MPEG-4 > CBR
resolution: 320x240
passes: one
bitrate: 768 kbps (384 kbps also works)
framerate: 29.97 fps
in the audio settings section...
bitrate: 128 kbps
sample rate: Input
channels: stereo
4) Click apply to save the profile.
Now, you're ready to transcode.
1) Click convert on the left nav.
2) Click the transcode new video button.
3) Pick your source video. Mine was an AVI from a torrent.
4) Under quality profile, choose "ipod", the profile you created using the steps above.
5) Click start.
Now you're ready to get the video on your ipod
1) In iTunes, under the File menu, select add file to library. Find the transcoded one. By default, the transcoded videos pop out under the Videora install directory.
2) Drag and drop to your ipod.
Questions/observations:
1) I haven't been able to get H264 anything to work. Is it broken? How much smaller than MPEG4 is it?
2) 768 kbps video was about 400 megs/hour; 384 kbps video was about 231 megs/hour. I could readily see a difference in video quality.

I travel - a lot. I have apple accounts in Canada, US and Brazil. I want to consolidate and listen to my music and movies on one device. Right now there is a 90 day limit per account on each device. How can I download and use all my purchases?

There must be a way for people who live in several countries or speak several languages to purchase music and movies in various national Apple IDs and then consolidate and listen to the media they own on just one device. How can I do that?

There must be a way to get all the music and movies into one place. Maybe on Laptop rather than iPhone or iPad. I can get one set to one ID and the other to another, then switch to the third ID since I have not changed the two in 90 days. But I would need to download all media during the time each device is on each ID. Must be possible, but I don't know how.

Have you looked here:
iTunes 10.5 and later: Troubleshooting iTunes Wi-Fi Syncing

Using iPad air, iPod, iCLoud and WinPro 7 - I am not finding all my tunes and movies among all these devices.

When I orignally installed iTunes current update, and tried to move about the devices iTunes would crash. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it. It seems to be stable, however as before I am not finding all of my TUnes and Movies on all my devices.
Any one?
Thanks-

Hey thomnj,
From what I understand, it sounds like after uninstalling and reinstalling your iTunes as a troubleshooting step, you're now missing some of your media? I would troubleshoot the issue with the steps in here:

What happened to the window in the new Itunes where I could see my apps as they appear on my device and move them around?

In this new version of Itunes I can't find the window where I can see my apps as they appear on my device and move them from window to window on my IPad. Where did it go? I have some apps I want to add back and don't know how to do it now.

Obviously u remove itunes and setup it again. U shouldn't setup it in windows partision
There are some steps u should do :
1-u should go to ipad icon show in itunes and right click on it there icon called (transfer purchases) this will take ur apps on ur devices to itunes
2-u should backup ur device by itunes or icloud
3-go to window where U can see ur devices apps on itunes. u should sync ur application with ituns it will remove ur apps and setup it again
4-u will restore ur device from ur backup (step 2)
And goodluck man

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can't do that in AirPlay Mirroring. AirPlay Mirroring can only mirror your MacBook's display, so you can't do one thing in your Mac's display and another in the TV.
This is a feature that will arrive in Mavericks. Read > http://www.apple.com/osx/preview

How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone? I synced the device and noticed that some photos and some movies from iPhoto on my laptop were not transferred to my iPhone.

How do you export photos and movies from iPhoto to your iPhone? I synced the devices and noticed that some photos and movies on my laptop iPhoto were not transferred to my iPhone?

I am not sure, which answer you found - so just in case:
If you sync your iPhone with the iPhoto library, the photos will only stay on the iPhone until the next sync and they are not in the Camera Roll. If you transfer using the Photo Stream, they will only be vidsible in the stream, until they are replaced in iCloud by newer content.
So, if you want to transfer the photos permanently, save them to the Camera Roll.

I just have the option of books and apps, but not music and movies both on itunes and iOs devices.. why?

in the itunes 10.5 preference and in the iOS 5 preferences (store) I can just select apps and books, no music and movies.... anybody knows why?
Alessandro

For anyone still wondering about this, reports today are that the UK won't see music in the cloud until Q1 2012 as negotiations have only just start with the Perfoamnce Rights Society. Slightly strange that licenses weren't done on a global level but it may be cash related. Apple apparently gave $150m to universal alone in advances

I want to enjoy the itunes music, books and movies store as max as I can, but in my country Indonesia, we still can't purchased books, movie and music. Can apple solve this ASAP? I believe my country is now moving on using apple mobile devices

Apple doesn't have full control over what they can sell in each country or region. The copyright owners control that.

Quick question: what is the difference between graphic and movie clips?

What is the difference between the two symbols: graphic and movie clips? They both contain frames..?

movie clips can have
instance names : so they can be controlled via actionscript
filters applied : drop shadow, glow, blur, color adjust etc
blend modes applied : difference, screen, lighten, darken, etc.
3d transformations
graphics:
none of the above
the only real practical reason to use a graphic is the reason jdehaan stated. a graphics internal animation can be scrubbed via the main timeline. graphics will only advance when the main timeline advances. when the main timeline stops.. graphics stops.
movieclips on the otherhand are said to run independent of the main timeline. so you can have a MAIN timeline with one frame only and the movieclip's interior animation will run constantly.
also via the properties panel you can tell a graphic to stay stuck on a certain frame or loop a set number of times.
always use movieclips unless you have a reason not too. as kglad said it will save you and others a lot of hurt in the future.

Don't want to Copy audio and movies into document: Selecting

Hello
Here is my first question about Keynote.
In the User Guide, we may read:
Copy audio and movies into document: Selecting this checkbox saves audio and
video files with the document, so the files play if the document is opened on another
computer.
*_You might want to deselect this checkbox so that the file size is smaller, but_*
*_media files won’t play on another computer unless you transfer them as well._*
The named checkbox is unchecked in the Advanced options as well as in the Preferences pane but, when I drag a sound file, in fact a mp3 one encapsulated in a .mov file, I retrieve it it the document itself.
I'm running the app on a French system if it may make sense.
Am'I doing something wrongly ?
Yvan KOENIG (VALLAURIS, France) mardi 18 janvier 2011 14:17:30

I have no huge knowledge about Keynote.
So, I would use brute force.
Assuming that your document is built with the flatfile format introduced by iWork '09
(1) rename the document wxyz.key as wxyz.key.zip
(2) double click the renamed document
it will expand as a wxyz.key document using the old package structure
(3) ctrl + click the icon of the new wxyz.key document to reach the contextual menu offering the item allowing you to "Display Package Contents"
(4) in this contents you will see the "kind of aliases" which I wrote about.
They are named something like : azertyui.mov
(5) open them with an hexadecimal editor like the free Hexedit.
You may also drag & drop them on the TextEdit icon.
In this late case you will get something like :
I highlighted the meaningful info.
Here it must be read as:
Macintosh HD/Important/Téléchargements/jef gilson - oeil vision/jej gilson - oeil vision - 7 -chant inca.mp3
This is the path to the true file.
With this info, you may reach the true file.
As far as I know, the embedded .mov file is a frozen 'kind of alias' so you are not allowed to move it.
As long as it remains where it is, you may move the keynote document everywhere on your HD. You may also move it on an external HD.
As long as the device is connected to your machine with the media file untouched thr doc will behave flawlessly.
If you move it to an other machine, it will be orphan.
So, to use it on an other machine, you must embed the media file in the document.
Open this document with Keynote.
Check the checkbox urging Keynote save media in the document
Delete the icon of the media item existing in the document
Drag & drop the true media file as a replacement of the deleted one
then save the document.
Oops I was forgetting to respond about 'dropped files'.
To my knowledge, they are some insert picture files.

HT4436 originally my kids used my apple account, now they want there own. Can they keep there photos and music and move it to a new account?

I want to create a new account and transfer my photos and music to the new account. How can I do that?

Your talking about the famous AppleID divorce
There is no way to "move" music, apps, or photostreams between iCloud/AppleID accounts easily, but there are some ways to maybe salvage everything they want and get it to their individual devices. I'm going to assume that each has an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, and that you all have one or more computers with iTunes (macs or PC's, shouldn't matter).
In any case, this isn't likely to be a quick fix for you, so clear a couple of hours in the evening and grab a beverage of your choice. Here are a few ways to manage the divorce:
Separate iCloud (ie, contacts, calendars, etc) accounts for each person, Shared iTunes Music/Apps:
This approach allows each person to have their own device backups, plus their own address books, calendars, etc, and it allows everyone to share the apps and music that has been and will be purchased. This will also mean each has their own photostreams as well. With calendars and photostreams, you can create "shared" versions of each so you and they can collectively contribute and modify the calendar, and can collectively contribute to a shared photostream.
The great benefit to this approach is that all of the music and apps that have been purchased will continue to be available on all of the devices.
The disadvantage is that with the shared iTunes account, everybody is sharing everybody else's gift cards and/or money that is in the account. Monitoring it is a manual process.
To setup this scenario:
Create a new iCloud account (ie, new AppleID's) for everyone, including yourself.
In the iCloud settings on each mobile device use the new iCloud account (ie, AppleID) for that person.
Use those same iCloud credentials for the iCloud settings in each person's account on the computer. (Note that if you do NOT use separate accounts for each person on the computer, this method will not work for synching the iCloud stuff, just the iTunes stuff. I highly recommend you create user accounts on the computer for each person).
On your mobile devices, in the iTunes and App Store settings continue to use the "original" AppleID under which all of the music and apps were purchased.
In iTunes for each user account on the computer, continue to use the "original" Apple ID, just like on the mobile devices.
For each person's photos that they wish to keep, make sure that they are currently in the mobile device's camera roll (just as Winston suggested).
Now the device's and computer user accounts are all setup. When the mobile device's are synched to user's (or the common) iTunes app, all of the music and apps will stay, and all of the photos that were previously in each user's camera roll will still be there.
Separate iTunes Accounts, Shared iCloud Account
This approach allows each person to have their own iTunes account for music and apps, but will keep all of the iCloud stuff (like contacts and calendars and photostreams) identical accross everybody's devices. This is particularly useful if the kids get their own gift cards and are not amenable to sharing with their family and you want to continue to have identical address books, calendars, and photostreams.
The main drawback to this approach is that it is possible that each individual will lose access to some music and all purchased apps. That will depend highly upon when the music was purchased. ie, was it purchased before or after Apple went to a digital rights management (DRM) free model for music. All purchased apps will technically be lost, but sometimes its still possible to "keep" those apps via iTunes and your device will continually and annoyingly ask you for the credentials (ie, the original AppleID) under which the app was purchased.
Another drawback is that the free iCloud storage account is likely to be enough to backup all of your devices (if you have more than 1). Therefore, you will likely have to purchase a larger iCloud storage plan.
To setup this scenario:
Create a new AppleID for each person for use in the iTunes Music/App store. Remember to keep your original AppleID that was used for all of the purchases to date.
On each mobile device, in the iTunes and App Store settings input the new AppleID for each user. On one of the devices (you'll have to figure out on which one it makes the most sense), continue to use the original AppleID.
In the iCloud settings for each device (and the computer accounts), continue to use the original AppleID.
Now you must setup new iTunes databases on the computer for each seperate user. The only way to do this is to have each user have a seperate account on the computer (again, mac or PC, doesn't matter).
In each user's iTunes app on the computer, input the iTunes store credentials that match his/her mobile device that you setup in step 2 above.
On the computer, move all of the music that each person cares about into his/her separate iTunes database (ie, import the music into iTunes by whatever method you choose). The exact method for this is dependent upon whether its windows or mac, but basically, find the actual music files on the hard drive, and then import each of them into iTunes for each user. You want each user to setup their "new" music database on the computer. This is what the mobile device will synch against.
Once complete, synch each mobile device with each user's respective iTunes app. You MUST use separate iTunes databases at this point.
If all of the music was purchased post-DRM (or is DRM-free for whatever reason), then this method will result in each user having all of the music that he/she wishes. However, if some of the music has DRM, then your success here will be a crapshoot.
Photostreams should all continue to be shared and collective since they are attached to the common iCloud account, not iTunes.
Separate iTunes Music/App Account, Separate iCloud
This is the ultimate in "every man for himself". The advantage is the each person has their own free iCloud features (including the all-important backup) and each has their own iTunes account.
The disadvantage is the same as "Common iCloud, Separate iTunes" approach: individuals may lose access to already purchased music and apps. The photostreams will also be broken apart, although you can setup shared photostreams for the future.
To setup this up:
Create new iCloud/AppleID accounts for each person (except for the original user).
In each person's mobile device, use their new AppleID for both iCloud and iTunes Music and App stores. One person keeps the original AppleID and continues to use it.
Follow the steps above for creating new music databases in each user's account on the computer.
Synch each user's mobile device with their respective iTunes database.
OK, that's what i have for you at this point. I'm happy to answer further questions on this and help you figure out how to do what you want to do.
Thanks
