Getting movies onto your ipod

I can't get my premiere elements movies onto my ipod classic (80Gb) - I can drag the movie into i tunes and watch it using itunes, but when I sync my ipod, it says it cannot synchronise the movie - anyone solved this problem?

Depends on how you're doing it, William.
The program will load the file directly to your iPod if you use Share/Mobile Phones and Players and then select iPod from the options.
You mention synchronizing, which seems to imply that you're using iTunes or other software to transfer the video to your device. If so, that could be a lot of issues, including what format of video you've output from Premiere Elements.

How do u get movies on your ipod?

how do u get movies on your ipod? i hav a 30 gb video ipod, so i can, but i cant figure out how. i've tried looking it up but it says nothing. pls help

First of all what to you mean by Movies? If you mean commercial releases that are issued on DVD, then you have to use software to rip and convert these to an iPod supported video format. There are a number of Windows compatible programs to do this, Video Vault commercial software is one, the free program Videora is another. After that, follow the instructions here to import them to iTunes and your iPod: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/tutorial/ipgettingstartedt12.html

What do you think is the best way to get DVDs onto your iPod?

I haven't recieved my video iPod yet, its coming in the mail, but I'd like to be ready when I get it. In your opinion, what is the best way to get DVDs onto your iPod?
I have Windows, so Handbreak doesn't work.
I've tried videora, but its taking ages...
Thanks!
*Just noticed you can edit*
I would also like to add that I would perfer that it was free...
Videora is driving me up a wall... It still has 3 hours to convert this thing its been going for 10 min and its still at 0%

Depending on the specs of your computer, time taken to convert DVD's to an iPod-playable format can vary. On my computer (see below), it takes about 10 hours to convert a 2-hour DVD to the iPod format, using Videora.
So, due to the extremely large size of the DVD rip, it'll take a while to convert it, regardless of how fast or slow your system is.

GETTING MOVIES ONTO NEW IPOD 5th Generation

I would like to know how to get movies that I have already downloaded from another website onto my IPOD. Also, how do I get movies from the ITunes Store when all I can see is Podcasts and no movies/tv shows.

Apple has not secured the right to distribute tv shows or movies outside of the US. So no tv shows or movies for you.
To move video content onto the ipod it must be formatted as MP4, complying to these standards:
Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48 kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
To do this, you need a transcoder(also called converter).
Recommend 2 different ones:
Mpeg streamclip(Mac and windows) http://www.squared5.com/
Media coder(windows) http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/

Ripping Flash movies onto your iPod?

I have been trying to find a freeware program that can convert SWF movies to a video format I can convert to put on my iPod. I know that there are programs out there that can do it, but I don't believe that I would be willing to pay US$50-$100 for a program that I wouldn't be using very much, hence the need for freeware programs. Quicktime can't do it, because it won't export sound files. Are there any programs out that fit the bill?

Depends on how you're doing it, William.

You have to go to the advance option on the tool bar and select convert to iPod. And that should work. I have done it with some videos, but have not been able to get audio on my iPod. Hope this helps

Getting videos onto your ipod

I purchased an ipod video (30gig) and I am doing fine with it, but how can I put videos on it that arent purchased from itunes. I've downloaded them and draged them into itunes and they show up in the video section. But when I disconnect my ipod and play the video it plays but it has no sound. I am wondering if anyone knows what is going on here.
p.s. the video plays perfectly on itunes with sound but not on the ipod itself

okay...well I downloaded videora ipod converter and used it on a video...now I have sound and the first frame of the video but it plays it as if that's the album art, like a song.. and when I play it on my itunes the picture is all scrambled in green and orange. uhh..?

Getting your Movies of any type onto Your iPod (and Quicktime)

I have just bought a 60gb iPod Video, when i bought this i was under the immpression that you tell it what movies you want on your ipod and it does it for you...WRONG...iPod almost has it geered that you have to buy their movies. I have spent several days investigating how to get any type of movie onto these iPod Videos. I have been succesful in everything except i still have 1 problem and thats why i am typing this right now. Lets take 1 senario at a time, first say you have a .mov or ANY file that OPENS and PLAYs in quicktime; if you have a file that opens and PLAYS (yes there are some that open but refuse to play) in quicktime you are set. All you have to do is (i think you have to have quicktime pro 7) go to file, export and export it to wherever you want and make sure you are exporting it as a MPEG4 file (the only type that is compatible with your iPod video) once you have exported as an MPEG 4 (takes a while) all you have to do is drag it into iTunes and its ready to be put on your iPod. NOW the problem is with the movies or video that wont Play or open in quicktime (which are most files (ex. AVI,WMV,....and the list goes on)OKKK some of these files will open in quicktime but not play in quicktime (AVI) so when you export them all you get is a white movie...and then ofcourse the rest of these files wont even open. FOR THE FILES THAT OPEN but dont play, quicktime suggests a codec, which i have yet to find (IF ANYBODY KNOW WHAT THIS OS PLEASE PLEASE LET ME KNOW). So untill i find that codec i still have the problem of getting all this stuff to play on Quicktime. Now everyone will say just get a converter that converts AVI to MOV. Can't get of those that works either. So pretty much if i can find somthing that will convert stuff to .MOV then i , and everyone else, can put jjust about ANY MOVIE they want on their ipod. SOOOO please if you have a converter that puts stuff in .mov then please respond to this forum, or if you know a different way. Because i am just plain stuck. Thank You

Welcome to the discussions, Christopher!
You have a PERFECT understanding of the situation and have demonstrated what has always been one of QuickTime's strength's. If you have a movie in QuickTime format, it is almost trivial to get it into another QuickTime format. If QuickTime can open and Play it, then you can successfully use "Export to iPod", wait, and the resulting movie will transfer to the iPod (the exception is MPEG movies which are a special case since they're not track based, they're multiplexed).
The problem comes in attempting to get all of the myriad nonstandard formats created on the Windows side of things for YEARS (usually for the transmission of movies over the internet) into the QuickTime standard. Some of those have QuickTime codecs, some don't and have to go through an in-between step and some have codecs but are buggy. For most cases, the QuickTime DivX plugin may work, in other cases you may need 3ivx or need to use a different program that understands non-standard video and how to compress it directly to MPEG4 (VIdeora).
It's a pain for now because there's so much nonstandard video out there, but, with the growth of more programs geared to creating standard video, the future shouldn't be as prickly

How do i get films onto my ipod touch?

Add them to your iTunes Movies library and then sync to iPod. Make sure the format is compatible with your iPod

Getting Vidoes onto my iPod, but im getting the wrong message!

i know that, to convert video files that have been downloaded from a different source, you have to either right click it or go into advanced and click on "Convert Selection for iPod". but everytime i get "Convert Selection to AAC", which changes the movie into a sound file, which really isnt what i want. what does this mean? and how do i get my other movies onto my ipod? thank you

Greetings alexa and welcome to Apple Discussions. I will certainly give it a try, but first off, this question is marked "answered" so few folks will likely see your very new question. Starting a "new" question is encouraged in these forums, this way you get everyone's eyes on it.
Anyway, to try to help ... first try deauthorizing then reauthorizing your iTunes account. If that doesn't work try these:
1. Set iTunes to show your applications. On the menu bar, click Edit > Preferences... and make sure Show: Applications is checked.
2. Make sure your apps are downloaded. On the menu bar, click Store > Check for Available Downloads
3. Update the iPod touch's firmware if you haven't already. Plug it in to iTunes, click on it in the left pane, and click the Update button.
4. With your Touch plugged into your computer, click the Applications tab on the Main (right) side of the iTunes screen. Check the "All applications" box, then click the "Apply" button on the bottom right.
5. Sync your Touch (click the "Sync" button on the bottom right.)
6. Eject (click the eject button next to your iPod's name). Once your iPod or iTunes says "OK to Disconnect", unplug it or undock it.
If all that doesn't work we'd need a bit more info from you: 1) your iPod Touch version (under Settings > General > About); and 2) your iTunes version (under Help > About).

Hey cptniemo,
Thanks for the question. Connecting your iTunes Store and Disney Movies Anywhere accounts should sync all of your eligible Disney, Pixar, and Marvel movies between both services. After connecting your accounts, you can check your purchased history in the iTunes Store:
Download past purchases

Alternatively you can download the free Disney Movies Anywhere app from the App Store (iOS 7 required):

I was trying to sync my 120GB iPod Classic earlier and it said it couldn't sync as the iPod disk could not be "read" or "written to". I now can't get anything onto my iPod, and I was wondering if it is a hard drive problem? Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Did you go into iTunes to change the location of your media files? if not you will need to go into iTunes and click on preference and select the advance tab then click the iTunes Media folder location. Select the location of your on external hard drive.

How do I get these onto my iPod

I provided a link to a 90 minute sports show above.... Is there anyway I can get this podcast onto my iPod if it was not put into Itunes???
Thanks

Unless you can download the file to your computer and save it in iTunes, you won't be able to get those podcasts onto your iPod.
It might be possible to record them, save them on the computer, add them to iTunes, then to the iPod-->but I do not know how you could do that on a Windows machine.
