  • TS1382 my ipod will not play any format of film i have tried mp4 and .mov and it says this format not supported what is the problem

    i have an ipod classic and i have tried to put films on but every format i try it keeps saying thei format not supported i have tried mp4 and .mov and it will not take it anyone got any suggestions on what format to use and the best way to convert films

    If these problem videos are already stored in your iTunes library, try using the iTunes built in convert to convert the file to an even friendlier iPod format.  To use it, highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the drop down menu.  When the conversion process has completed, try syncing the new version over to your iPod Classic.

  • How can I fix the "This is not a test user account, please create a new account in the sandbox environment" error?

    Hi there everyone,
    Recently I tried to make an in-app purchase, I'm not sure whether the app is relevant or not but it was for Tapped Out, however, after trying to make the purchase I received an error message saying "Sign-In Required, tap continue to sign in to check for downloads [Environment: Sandbox]" so I followed the instructions and was then presented with another error message saying "This is not a test user account, please create a new account in the sandbox environment. [Environment: Sandbox]"
    I have been doing a lot of research online trying to find a solution and so far nothing has worked for me, I have also been passing emails backwards and forwards between an Apple Customer Support colleague and are yet to find a working solution.
    Here are a few pieces of information.
    1. I am running iOS 6.1.3 on a 4th Gen iPod, it's relatively new, I got it for Christmas.
    2. My iPod is not, and never has been Jail Broken.
    3. I do not have a test account and have never tried to make my own apps.
    4. I have tried signing out of my Apple ID, resetting my iPod's settings and signing in again.
    5. I have tried resetting my Apple ID password
    6. I have tried restoring my iPod to factory settings.
    If anyone has another suggestion for something I could try it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Yep, I've been reading through other threads on lots of different sites over the last few hours and I can't seem to find a working solution, even though some seem to have worked for other people.
    Most of them hadn't been updated in a while so I made my own post to see if anyone has anything new.

  • Youtube - movie format not supported - Help

    Hi - hope someone can help me.
    I was a regular user of the Youtube App on Iphone4. Now when connected to 3G, ALL videos i search for are saying that the movie format is not supported. Even videos that I have seen countless times before.
    However, when connected to Wifi they work fine.
    I have reset the phone through itunes, and that didn't work
    Does anyone know what the issue is and can it be resolved. Its very very annoying.
    Thanks

    I am glad I am not alone! I have the same issue happening.
    If you immediately press play again on the video typically it will start playing. It's really frustrating though.
    Here is another thread about it. I need it fixed soon! I am rolling out a training website where users will have to view the videos from their iPads!

  • Why do I get an error that a Youtube video format not supported on the iPad?

    I am trying to view some YouTube videos but am receiving this error. I thought YouTube was compatible.

    For viewing YouTube videos you would be best using the built in YouTube Application as opposed to going to the www.youtube.com website.
    The website via Safari will have some videos that are in a format the iPad is unable to read, using the Application specifically should only show those Videos that are compatible.

    Try plugging it up to your computer and launching iTunes and either resetting it to factory settings or resetting to last sync. Hopefully it just noticing it's plugged up to iTunes will fix it. This happened to my friend once and all she had to do was plug it into her computer and that fixed it.

    how to fix error charging is not supported with this accessory (iphone 3gs)?

    This can mean there is some dirt, lint, or foreign material in the iPhone's dock connector port and it doesn't take much, or the dock connector port has damage with the pins or there is some moisture damage.

    powerbook g4 - does not start up...it shows kernel panic screen...how do i fix/resolve this problem?

    In the overwhelming majority of cases, kernel panic indicates a severe hardware problem. Braby and Allan pointed to useful things. If you can boot from CD / DVD and reinstall without any kernel panic, then may be a software problem, but this is less probable. You must check, anyway.
    If you have a 2nd mac around and a firewire cable, you may try to restart the ill mac in target mode and connect it to a healthy mac to see whether it may be used in target mode.

  • How do I fix issue with computer not authorized yet when authorized it indicated already authorized?

    How do I fix issue with computer not authorized yet when I go to I-Tunes to authorized it indicated already authorized?

    I updated to iOS 5.0.1 days ago and didn't receive that notification until just now...
    This time I synced new photos I took yesterday, and it gave me the:
    "iTunes Sync: 54 items could not be synced. See iTunes for more information"
    Perhaps it kicks off when new items get synced.
    I've decided to rent a movie yesterday. Once it gets deleted, I'm curious to see if it jumps to 55 items.

  • Youtube : movie format not Spported

    Something very weird is happening on while watching Youtube on wi-fi. It goes like this
    1. Search some topic - Works fine
    2. Select a video for playing - works like a charm, even HD videos start play back almost immediately
    3. Select another video - ERROR MESSAGE "MOVIE FORMAT NOT SUPPORTED"
    4. SWITCH FROM WI-FI TO 3G - SAME VIDEO STARTS PLAYBACK WITHOUT A GLITCH
    This happens for quite a few of the videos but not all.
    Has someone experienced this ?
    Please give some solution to this.
    Some details
    1. Apple IPhone 4 GSM
    2. IOS 4.3.5
    3. Internet connection speed - 10 Mbps, speed test results also shows the same.

    I have gotten so sick and tired of not being able to see a lot of the flash videos in YouTube (desktop version) on my iPad 2 that I created a way around it on my website. Now all I have to do is paste the URL of any YouTube video that doesn't work into my search bar and it plays straight away with no lag or loss of quality.

  • When I tap a photo in my iPhone photo gallery, the photo appears but there is always a "this movie format not supported" alert and then the alert goes away and the photo appears. These are photos I've taken with the iPhone and aren't even movies.

    It's very odd. I take photos with my iPhone and then later go to view the photos in the Photo Gallery on my iPhone. The photos to appear, but I keep getting "this movie format not supported" alerts, even though I am looking at photos taken by my iPhone. The alert appears briefly just after the photo appears and then the alert goes away and I can see the photo. They are just still photos and not movies. Why wouldn't the iPhone recognize the format of photos it is taking?

    That thread helped for a time.  But now it seems as though my computer is back to slow again.  But, some of the jargon is over my head as well.  Not sure I knew quoite everything they were talking about.  But thanks a lot for that, it helped I probably just need to reread it and follow the instructions again.  Thanks so much.
