Exporting to Ipod video help?!?

I have updated all the software (quicktime pro/ Itunes). I then went to export from Quicktime. Once this file was made (mp4) I dragged it to itunes. Then I connected my IPod and a warning message appeared....telling me that the file did not copy as Ipod could not play this file. I then reexported making sure that I did click on the ipod setting!!! No luck...
Might anyone have any suggestions...I'm new to mac (just switched) and I can't figure this easy task out!!!

I found this link via google. Maybe it will help. It's a freeware QT to Ipod video converter.

IPod Video help please....

I'm trying to put videos onto my iPod video i just purchased, and am having alot of difficulty. Alot of my friends have iPod videos also and are trying to help, but no luck.
First off, when i open iTunes with the iPod connected everything works fine, i can open all music and videos and play them on iTunes just fine, i convert them to iPod and all is well while on computer. When i disconnect and try to watch the videos then all i get is the audio and a picture of what the video is. I place videos on the iPod manually by dropping them onto the iPod. When i try to adjust the iPod options menu, the VIDEOS tab is all greyed out (meaning nothing can be changed or selected). It almost seems like its not an iPod photo, any suggestions ??? I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software and updating the iPod over and over, but no success...

In your ipod, go to videos, video settings, then make sure that "tv out" says off.

thank you

If you convert them using quicktime you need to have pro for it to give sound.Prehaps a few more detawils about you're system set-up might give more clues to the problem.
There are various links in the forum to help you convert the movies : See Jeff Bryan's link in the thread - please help: TV shows
Sorry I couldn't be more help!

5th generation iPod video help!

I dropped my iPod video today and the iPod told me to restart it but when I plug it into the computer the inside started to make these scratchy sounds..?

It's likely that something was knocked out of place/damaged with the hard drive when your iPod was dropped. If the iPod is no longer functioning properly, it's a good sign that your hard drive needs to be replaced.

Ipod video HELP BADLY

im having trouble getting movies or music videos to my ipod and it bothering me can sum 1 help me please please IM me on aim LLLmstwantedLLL please get to me asap

If you have an iTunes store account, you can use the advanced/get album artwork menu in iTunes. As long as iTunes has the album that you are looking for it will add the artwork to your library. You don't need to purchase anything.
Here's another method.
Highlight a song or album in iTunes, then right click on it and select the "get album artwork" option.  Go to Google Image Search and type in the artist/album name and click on search images.   Double click on a picture you like, then at the top of that page click on "see full size image".   When you get that image, simply copy/paste it into the space for album artwork in iTunes.   Make sure you select the album in the browser of iTunes before you copy/paste.   You'd be surprised what Google Images can bring up. There are literally millions, and even obscure album artwork can be found.
In the unlikely event that Google can’t find an image, you can also get artwork from Amazon.
If you’re happy using images from Amazon, and don’t want to copy/paste, then iTunes Art Importer is a nice free program to do it for you.

HELP!!!my pc n internet messes up when i plug in my ipod video.HELP!!

I have recently bought a new pc and it has been fine until today when i plugged in my video ipod with the new itunes and ipod software both installed and when i plug it in my internet connection stops and the pc becomes much slower and when I attempt to shut down the pc it will not do so.HELP Plz!!!

If this is a 2nd gen shuffle, are you using the USB docking cable that originally came with the shuffle (with a mini-dock)? The cable for the 3rd and 4th gen shuffle does not work with the 2nd gen shuffle because the connector is different.
If you are using the correct cable, make sure the laptop is connected to its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power). If there are other USB devices connected, you should try it with the shuffle as the only device. If it still does not work, confirm the USB port is working properly by connecting something else to the same port, preferably something similar like a USB flash drive or external drive.
If that doesn't help (and the USB port is confirmed to be working), you may have a faulty USB docking cable or there may be a hardware problem on the shuffle, such as bad headphones jack or faulty logic board.

Ipod Video Help... Taking Advantage of Everything

Okay I have a couple questions.
1) I am going to reformat my computer and want to use myipod to hold my files. Any opinions on this or would a CD/Zip backup be a better choice?
2) If i were to load pictures onto my ipod can i upload them onto another computer or is it a one way deal like with music?
3) Is there any other cool stuff i could be doing with my ipod or cool forums Im missing out on?
Thanks,
Will

here's some additional answers:
1. the chances that your iPod will malfunction or be stolen are slim. if you are using it as an external hard drive while you reformat, your files should be just fine. if you are reformatting your computer's hard drive to use a new OS or to just clean up the current OS, the iPod should be recognized without worry.
you should be fine.
2. follow BTABZ's advice on this. but in addition, you can manually store photos on the iPod by using it as an external hard drive (dragging the photo's into a folder on the iPod). these are not displayable on the iPod, of course.
3. There's a bunch of cool things to do! check it out:
- on the Mac you can turn text files into spoken Mp3 files to hear email, notes, or even webpages read to you.
- Notes: i use both Word and on the Mac, TextEdit, to create readable notes which i put on my iPod. Speeches, presentations, journals, email, etc... all right on the iPod for reading on a plane, train, or potty.
- Calendars: i use the Calendar feature every day. as a Mac user, it's easy to sync it up and have all my important dates right there.
- Contacts: again, once it's sync'd up, i have all my contacts right there.
- like BTABZ wrote, there's lots of accessories you can buy, too.
- check out iLounge.com. you might find some cool ideas there, too.
you'll have to research how to do some of this on the PC. but, as far as "can they be done," well... yeah. i hope this was helpful for you! good luck!

IMac won't see my iPod video - help!

It's been working fine for ages and all of sudden froze while it was syncing ... and I disconnected it even though it said "do not disconnect". Clearly the beginning of the end ...
I have tried everything .... my iTunes is up-to-date, as is all of the software. I have done the resets, let the power drain completely, put it into disk mode - everything! Everytime I connect it, it freezes at the "do not disconnect" screen - and it is not recognized in iTunes or in Finder. I tried it on my iBook as well - same problem.
It still works, but will not sync and so I can't update it with podcasts, new music, etc - help!

Going back to the beginning and reading your first post again...You are unable to install 7.1.4. You are at 7.0. If you install 7.1.4 you can most likely use your camera with no third party workarounds.
Th upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1 was a major upgrade. So my recommendation would be to first download and install 7.1 Once you do this you will be able to upgrade to 7.1.4. [Get the download on this page|http://support.apple.com/downloads/#imovie]
There is a post on the FS100 which describes the exact steps to import from this camera. I assume you have seen this post. So go ahead and get the software updated. Be sure to run software update as well. At some point there was an iLife update that was required along with the iMovie update.

How can I, or can I export my songs on my iPod back to my computer? The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this

How can I, or can I export my songs on my iPod back to my computer?
The songs on my iPod Video 5th Gen now, were at one time on my computer, but have since been erased. Why can't I export the songs from my iPod back on to my computer? I have this same problem with my other devices (iPad 3rd Gen and iPod Nano 6th Gen). I am really frustrated now, because it seems as if I have to start all over again. This will be a royal pain in the butt! I don't understand why Apple makes this so hard and impossible to do this. Please help, anybody!!

Converting TV shows for iPod Video - Please help!

I have been trying all week to get one single tv show on my iPod, but I have had no success. I have been using Quicktime Pro with the iPod video export settings which takes forever, but every time the video is finished, it plays in iTunes with no sound. I have called tech support several times and they offered advice like, "Try using Divx to convert it into a .mov," but it never works. The types of files I am trying to convert are mpeg1 & 2, and .avi (downloaded files from p2p) but like I said, no success. If anyone can offer some straightforward advice about other programs to use, or what I may be doing wrong, it would be extremely helpful. I am using a brand new iBook G4. I understand you can use Handbrake to convert DVD's, but most of my files are tv shows, and would like to have some Simpsons or Family Guy in my iPod. Currently, I am waiting for Quicktime to convert three more mpeg files into the iPod format, and if it doesn't work, I will stop trying completely and stick to only movies, I guess. Oh, by the way, I have tried using iMovie to import files and it also experiences the same issues as Quicktime after it is added - no sound! Thanks again guys, I really appreciate your responses.

QuickTime Pro will not transcode any form of muxed MPEG file correctly on its own.
Forty-TwoDVD-VXPlus ($14.99) will convert MPEG1 but not sure about MPEG2 and M2/AC3 VOBs.
MPEG2QT ($15) and MPEG2 Works 4 ($25) will convert MPEG1/2 and M2/AC3 VOBs. With regard to AVI files there are more than one type. If QT Pro won't handle them then you need to check DivX and/or 3ivX modules. However, as far as I know, DivX are still trying get their QT 7 component to work with DivX v5.x and the v6 has yet to be released.
Tried PSPWare v2.1.4 in free, unregistered mode and it converted MPEG1 files without a problem. But all of my other, more common test file types failed to convert.
Also tried MPEG StreamClip (free) which some users claimed worked fine. It kept cutting off the audio before reaching the end of the video in the target files (w/MPEG4 settings).

Please HELP, "iTunes has stopped working" error after connecting iPod video

People please help me out! I have a Razer Blade gaming laptop with Windows 8 64bit.
I have an iPhone 5, iPad 2 and an iPod video (80GB). I had some weeks from not connecting the iPod to my computer, but this morning that I did so I can upload some new music to it, iTunes just crash, I get the "iTunes has stopped working" error message when I connect the iPod video. I do not have this problem with either the iPhone 5 or the iPad 2, when I connect these, iTunes works fine, once I connect the iPod, then all goes down
Procedures that I already tried and that were unsuccessful to solve the problem:
Uninstall Quicktime
Uninstall iTunes and reinstall
Reset the iPod (several times)
Delete TEMP files on computer
Restart the computer (several times)
Use a different cable and a different USB port
The iPod is working fine, if I plug it to my car stereo or if I use it with headphones it works great, no problems nor errors. My computer also identify the iPod as a hard disk, no error messages from Windows, it is just the freakin' iTunes that freezes everytime that I plug the iPod
PLEASE HELP ME OUT, I've searched forums on this particular issue but with no luck.
Thanks very much!

It is only when I attempt to add a song to my iPod once plugged in that I receive the error "Itunes has stopped working" and forces me to exit the program, without the song being successfully transferred.
Do you have the "Convert to 128 kbps AAC" preference enabled for syncing to the iPod, laur?
If so, it's quite plausible that you've got the iTunes 10.1.0.54 bug and we need to get you updated to 10.0.1.56 as per the following document:
[iTunes 10.1 for Windows: iTunes may stop working and need to quit while importing or syncing audio|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3591]
