How come itunes doesn't support avi movies

hi im trying to put avi type movies on my itouch. but it wont show up on itunes. i been using a video converter called handbreak to change it to m4v but it take too much time. is there anyway to get itunes to put avi so i can put it on my itouch.

no,
unfortunitly itunes and ipod doesn't suppport avi files
and either way it HAS to be converted, as ipods only support playing .m4v and .mp4 videos
but ipods aren't alone as all portable video players besides windows mobile devices only play .mp4's
they do that too have a set standard for portable digital videos and use less memory and use lower resolutions which is perfect for the small screen sizes and there allows more room for more videos, which ofcourse therefore has people buy more content thus giving the developers more money

How come iTunes doesn't have a band I am looking for?

I am looking for a band that I LOVE, and iTunes doesn't have it or something. Does anyone know why iTunes doesn't offer all music?

How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?" Wth...i am using the 64version.

Hi. How come iTunes keeps saying:"this iPod can not be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64 bit version of iTunes?" Wth...i am using the 64 bit version of itunes. Why does it keep saying that? Will someone Help me please!? This is is getting frustrating. I already had done a full removal of everything! I even removed and deleted my library...then had to put all 500 songs back on one by one. So, i don't have to remove everything again, just to get my ipod to work on here. You, know before the itunes update, my ipod and itunes were working just fine.

wow, that was a quick reply. lol. but i have removed everything. I wasn't even able to get iTunes on my computer for a little while. i kept getting errors on that. Now it's saying that the required software isn't installed. Hmm, could it be referring to Apple Mobile Device Support? That is supposed to be installed with when iTunes gets installed right? I only ask, because that didn't get installed with the itunes setup.

How come it doesn't show how much money there is left in my iTunes gift card? I have tried putting in the code more than once, but all my tablet says is that the card has already been redeemed.

I haven't got access to the server right now (so I can't provide the complete details), but something like 6-700 GB (which is more than it shows in the client time machine windows, but less than what is true (which was around 1,5 TB))

How come ITunes says I purchased a song, but I can't find it in any library

How come ITunes says I purchased a song, but I can't find it in any library

As in purchased it 4 minutes ago, or 4 years ago? The new versions of iTunes are always very reliable at having songs show up in the main library display window when an item is added. Does your song appear in Recently Added? Have you checked your media folders to see if the song is actually on your computer but it is just iTunes that is having conniptions?

How come siri doesn't find places, restaurants or maps in canada .

how come siri doesn't find places, restaurants or maps in canada .I am so angry that apple says that siri does all of that but forgets to say USA only !!!!

It is dissappointing that Siri location services are available in only a few countries. However, Apple never said that it was available everywhere. It is a beta service and they never even had a trace of Siri on the Apple Canada website. They even removed it from the video clips and everything. I consider myself lucky we can use it at all (reminders/calender dates/texts/websearches etc.) we have to wait patiently for our Country to be added. It will probably take a little while due to having 2 national languages.

How do I download and view AVI Movies?

How do I download and view AVI movies? I tried Peruvian and it didn't work.

Since Perian didn't work, it's probably impossible. You may want to post back with the audio and video codec listed under 'Show Movie Inspector' or 'Show Movie Properties' in the Window menu, however.

HT3775 Quick Time player does not support AVI movies?

I can't play an AVI movie on quick time player. Why?

If you cant play it in QuickTime, then another media player may be more successful. A couple of good options that generally pick up where QuickTime falls short are VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html) and MPlayer OS X Extended (http://www.mplayerosx.ch).

HT2729 how come i cant watch my purchased movie from itunes?

it shows up as if it IS playing but all i get is a black screen and no way to play, the controls show as if its playing. ive tried restarting itunes, restarting the mac. im at a loss here

Did all of your songs purchased from iTunes? Only the songs purchased from iTunes could be transferred when you change your computer.Agree with ckuan that the way to make it possible is to use a third party tool to complete the conversion.

How come iTunes is not compatable on my Surface tablet with windows 8?

I got this tablet and it wasmeant to replace my older laptop. But everytime i try downloading itunes for my phone, it says 'The app cant be run on my PC". This is a huge reason of why even got the tablet. As i talked to a technician for windows, they said it was up to apple to make it compatible. I was curious when this is going to happen because it not being compatable is a big pain considering how iTunes hold all the info that my iPhone holds.

Okay, here's what's going on:
1. The Windows 8 name is actually applied to two operating systems that are designed to look and feel the same- one for your standard "x86" processors like the ones made by Intel and AMD that power most PCs and laptops, and one for "ARM" (and ARM derivitative) processors, like the ones that frequently power tablets and phones.
2. The x86 Windows 8 devices are backwards compatible with stuff designed for Windows 7 (and Windows Vista, and some Windows XP stuff). So they'll run itunes, etc..
3. The ARM version of Windows 8 devices is only compatible with stuff designed for Windows 8 specifically, usually sold through the Windows 8 store and displayed as a tile on the main screen once purchased (The major exception being Microsoft Office, which can run in desktop mode). This is because stuff designed for Windows 7 and before was compiled for x86 processors, an ARM processor doesn't know what to do with it.
3. Your Surface RT device is powered by an ARM processor, so you have no backwards compatibility.
4. Itunes is right now compiled only for x86 processors, and those will only work with Windows 8 machines with x86 processors, which you don't.
5. Apple may or may not decide to release a version of itunes that's compatible with the ARM version of Windows 8 (frequently referred to as Windows 8 RT). We just don't know, because they haven't said that they will or they won't. Right now there is no compatible version.
6. So your options are to use music software that is compatible with Windows 8 RT (I am guessing it comes with some version of Windows Media Player), wait till Apple comes out with a version of Itunes for Windows RT (Which it may or may not do), or return your Surface RT and buy a more traditional laptop with an Intel or AMD processor instead (The version of Windows 8 that can run on those chips can do itunes in desktop mode).
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I can see where this would be a little confusing. Microsoft probably should have given it's ARM-based operating system a name other than "Windows".

How come itunes only downloaded part of a song?

I bought a a couple of albums off of itunes and on one song (that i know of) on each album only plays part of the song. For example: if you have a 3:45 song it will only play 2:35 of the song and then it cuts off and moves onto the next song on the album. Can anybody help with this problem. I want my moneys worth. Thanks.

Delete the tracks from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track files to the Trash. Then download the tracks again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the tracks persist, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
Regards.
