Getting videos onto ipad/iphone/ipod

So, I have a series of videos that are in mp4 format and are inserted into itunes and are rigged to play using itunes. I can find the videos in itunes under home videos, and they play in itunes with no difficulties.
I recently upgraded my phone from the 4 to the 5s. I also own an ipad mini, an ipod touch, and an ipod classic. I was able to put videos on my iphone 5s really easily, and they are fully functional. However, this is not where I want to store the video as I do not wish to use my active phone, potentially draining the battery and leaving myself without access to a phone. I want the videos on my other devices.
I have updated all of my devices. I cannot seem to get the videos on my other devices. Why can I not get the videos on my other devices? WHY DOES APPLE NEED TO MAKE THIS SO BLOODY DIFFICULT?!!!

iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod

How do i get videos onto the new ipod?

haven't been able to figure out how to get videos onto the ipod. tried to click and drag a home video into the video section but that didn't work. any help would be greatly appreciated.
also, where do i go to get an episode to download onto the ipod?

Hi Sebastian,
Use iTunes to put videos onto your iPod. Make sure you have the newest version (by pressing Help, then selecting check for iTunes updates).
Once you are sure you have the newest version of iTunes, just press File -> add file to library, or drag your video file onto the iTunes library. Then all you need to do is update your iPod.

How to get contacts onto ipad / iphone from exchange

Hi, I've setup an exchange account on my iphone / ipad. But, it's pulling down all these contacts I don't really care for.
Is there a way thru Itunes or maybe icloud to select the contacts I want installed from our exchange server? I would then disconnect sync, after I've got all the contacts I need and sync it to the cloud.
Thanks,
Joe

I Didn't understood your question well, but, there is an very good app for this, named: BUMP!

Getting videos onto iPhone

Currently to transfer a video onto my iPhone I have to select "manually update music" from my phone settings. Is there any other way to easily sync videos because manually updating my music is kind of a pain at times. Any help would be great!

You can manually manage music and videos or sync. You can do one or the other, not both at the same time.
When you have sync enabled, if you switch to manually manage music and videos, all music and videos available on your iPhone will be erased first. When you have manually manage music and videos selected, if you switch to syncing, all music and videos available on your iPhone via manually manage music and videos will be erased first.
If both movies were purchased from the iTunes Store, the movies should be available below the Movies section under the Videos tab for your iPhone sync preferences. If you want to sync instead of manually manage music and videos, deselect this under the Summary tab for your iPhone sync preferences. This will erase all iTunes content from your iPhone.
Follow this by selecting Sync Movies under the Videos tab for your iPhone sync preferences. Select the movies in the window below followed by a sync.

Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch

A colleague just told me about this announcement from Apple -
Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch -
http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2012/01/19Apple-Unveils-All-New-iTunes-U-App-for -iPad-iPhone-iPod-touch.html
Do any fellow iTunes U administrators know anything about this? How is existing content presented in the new app? Would we need to change anything? How do we access / make available the new features?
The new features sound fantastic but it would have been nice to have some warning. I appreciate that Apple has to keep specific details about developments confidential but it's slightly disconcerting that iTunes U administrators were not forewarned about this new development and that there has been no mention of it on this forum. Also - and at the risk of sounding like a broken record - it really would be helpful for iTunes U administrators to have a private forum (perhaps an add-on to Public Site Manager) where we could discuss issues and share ideas and best practice etc.

Greetings Tom;
I watched the Apple's Keynote presentation and I'm amazed! I'm really excited about the possibilities this opens up for educators. I, like you am still processing all of the information and sorting out the possibilities.
Did you get the email about the Webcast on Wednesday the 25th at 10:00 AM PT that's going to cover the new iTunes U Corse Manager and how to publish through iTunes U Site Manager? Hopefully this is available to you in the UK. We'll keep in touch. All the best...

Apple tv output to iPad/iPhone/iPod/Mac

One can stream the display of iPad/iPhone/iPod to TV using Airplay/appletv.
Is it possible to stream the output of apple tv to iPad/iPhone/iPod/Mac using Airplay?
Thanks,
BC

I wouldn't get too worried about standby, just set it to sleep in Settings after a certain period.
Mine seems to sleep when I change TV input or power down the TV anyway.
It is actually quite a low power device being about a 6W rating - I appreciate every little helps with energy saving though.
I assume it is the black AppleTv 2 or 3?

How do I get music onto my iPhone 5c?

How do I get music onto my iphone 5c from my pc (with windows 7). I have itunes version 11.1.3 and I cant figure it out! I have done it before with my ipod touch 4th gen. a few months ago (and a few itunes versions ago) but I don't remember how and I'm sure it has changed. please help!!!!

in itunes make sure your menu bar is visable ( click the black and white squar in the top left corner > go to show menue bar)
click VIEW in the menu bar> chose "show sidebar"
then in the sidebar click on oyur device that will take you to the summary pane of your device
then at the top it will say summary info apps music movies ect...
click on MUSIC
then check the box beside of SYNC MUSIC
then check the option to sync entire music library

My husband and I have separate iTunes accounts and multiple devices (iPads, iPhones, iPods etc) how do we share our music and apps between our devices if we have different iTunes accounts.

Help! My husband and I have multiple devices (iPad, iPhone, iPod ) that we we have linked to individual iTunes accounts ie he has his account with iPad, iPhone, PC and iPod linked/sync and I have my account with iPhone, iPad, iPad mini, PC etc.. How do we share our music and apps across/between our accounts?

It probably means that only one of you can use iCloud or at least sync calender/contacts with it. I would guess that you could manually manage the other phone as you have before.

Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media. You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else. As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC. Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

HT5570 My six-year old grandson appears to be able to make purchases on the TV without having to enter the password and yet every other device i use (e.g. iPad, iPhone, iPod) is password protected. How is that possible?

Having AppleTV remember the password is optional.
Logout of iTunes store, log back in and hopefully next time you come to purchase you'll be prompted for your password but decline the option to remember it. You might also want to look out of parental controls on the unit.

If you're syncing with a different iTunes library than the one you previously synced with, then there is no way around it. You're gonna loose the old data. The only way round it would be to make sure that all the music files on your iPhone is also in your iTunes library. If you still have access to the computer with the old library, you could copy the files on to an external harddrive, and then import them into your new iTunes library.
If it is in fact the same library, then the music currently on your iphone, is also in your itunes library. Just make sure that the artists/albums/playlists, or whatever you sync contains these tracks, that you allready have on your phone and don't want deleted. What i do is, i create a playlist specifically for my iPhone, and i set it up to only sync with this playlist. Whenever i hear a track from my iTunes library or buy a new track that i want on my phone, i just drag it to this playlist and next time i synchronize, it's there without deleting anything else.

Apple does not allow use of Adobe Flash with the IPad. Is it all right to use Bridgebaseonline with a Mac that is synched with an IPad?
Flash is not available for the iPad. If Bridge Base Online requires Flash, there's nothing you can do on the iPad, unless Bridge Base Online has an app in the iTunes App Store.
You may want to try an alternate browser like Skyfire or Puffin. No guarantees.
I have not been able to synch Ical and Iphoto with my IPad. I've been to the Genius bar 5 times and on the phone twice to try to resolve this problem.
iBook, Mac OS X (10.5.2), I cannot synch my IPad with IBook
This is a separate issue than what you stated in the subject. Syncing recent iPhones and iPads that have iOS5 on them require iTunes 10.5, which also requires OSX 10.5.8 on your Mac. Your profile says you have 10.5.2. If that is correct, you need to update to 10.5.8, then update iTunes to 10.5, if you haven't already done so.

How do I get video from my iPhone to iMovie? The videos download to iPhoto, but are not "available" in iMovie when I select iPhoto in event library.

How do I get video from my iPhone to iMovie? The videos download to iPhoto, but are not "available" in iMovie when I select iPhoto in event library.

I haven't launched iMovie in a while, and I've used iPhoto to import many videos from my iPhone's Camera Roll since the last time I launched and used iMovie.
iMovie prompted me to create/update the thumbnails for my iPhoto videos, along with indicating no iPhoto videos will be available with iMovie until this is completed.
Not sure how to do this manually, but this may be your problem.

How do I get audiobooks onto my iphone 5?

How do I get audiobooks onto my iphone 5? I don't have the option available in my music app. audiobooks isn't there at all. When I can see my iphone on itunes in my computer it doesn't give me the option to sync audiobooks. I can't even find them when the phone is connected. It only shows me regular books.

Audiobooks should be under the Books tab
Open itunes, Click on your iphone at the top of the page, or sidebar, depending on your settings, click the books tab, then go to audiobooks
