How do you choose your video folder so itunes can see it?

For some reason, itunes is not seeing my video folder on my laptop. How can I point it to the correct folder so I can sync some videos to my iphone?

Back in iTunes, click on the Movies or TV Shows menu items to see what iTunes sees. They have to first be listed there in your library.
Then try to play one. Just because they are listed there, if you ever moved them and didn't tell iTunes, iTunes has a pointer pointing to the old location. If iTunes can play them you should be ok (if in right format for iPhone). If it cannot find it, it will tell you (and put an exclamation point next to file) and you have to go find the file (iTunes will prompt to have you find it) so it can update it's pointer.
Only after iTunes knows where it is (eg: can play the file from your library) can you sync it (if in right format).

  • How do you print your purchase history from itunes?????

    how do you print your purchase history from itunes???  why is the "print" function grayed out????  so frustrating

    There is no way to print the Purchase History as a list. You'll have to do a screen capture instead and print that. If you have purchases that span across multiple panes in the Purchase History, you'll have to do a screen capture of each. Of you can print the receipts that should have been emailed to you.

  • How do you find your account balance on itunes?

    How do you find your account balance on itunes?

    If it is on an ios device, it should be at the bottom.
    If it is on a Mac open the App Store and click "Account" on the right hand side. It should say your balance right there.
    From your itunes on the computer, you should be able to click on:
    -iTunes store
    -Account ( under quicklinks on the right hand side of the window)
    -See all (Under purchase history)
    -It may ask for a password!

    I was deleting a file from my screen, and I accidentally removed my Document Folder so it is off my dock. Now next to the dashed lines to make the dock bigger, I only have my Application folder with the trashcan. I have no idea how my Document folder back on! Please help!

    Copy the iMovie Library. It should be in YourUserFolder/Movies/iMovie Library. See iMovie (2013): Work with multiple libraries

  • How do you save your downloaded apps on iTunes?

    After I returned my 8GB for a 16GB, of course I had to re-download all of my apps, which was a bummer.
    Is there any way I can put a backup on iTunes so that if I ever have to return my iPhone (defective, damaged under warranty) I can plug it into iTunes and it will put all my apps back automatically?

    Allan, my first post was responding to you, and your assertion that there was a prompt to defeat app transfer.
    I realize that, and although I recalled such a prompt the first time I transferred an app to my iTunes library that was acquired with my iPhone, you provided there is no such prompt - so case closed in that regard.
    The fact that the OP didn't even mention that he had synched the phone suggested a good possibility he hadn't - no psychic powers needed.
    There is a possibility he did not sync his iPhone after acquiring apps with his iPhone, but just because he didn't mention that he had not synced his iPhone after doing so does not mean he didn't, which is why I asked the question. And until I know the answer *+for certain+*, without assuming he had not, there was no point in bringing up I have seen it reported here a number of times that apps acquired with the iPhone are not transferred to the iTunes library when syncing. You corrected me providing there is no prompt for not transferring apps, and you are also assuming the OP must not have synced his iPhone with iTunes after acquiring apps with his iPhone since the apps are not in his iTunes library. I responded to you in this regard because I have seen this reported here a number of times recently. You seem to be insinuating that I must be making this up for some reason because you don't specifically recall any of these threads.
    Some more info re the circumstance, firmware/iTunes version, troubleshooting steps, etc., might be pertinent to this discussion. I'm asking this because you brought up that there were previous posts about this without revealing any useful info (as if merely mentioning them was supposed to have some relevance).
    Until the OP answers the question knowing if he didn't sync his iPhone with iTunes for certain, *+there is no point in doing so.+* I mentioned this to you being relevant to your assertion that all apps acquired with the iPhone are transferred to the iPhone when syncing 100% of the time for all users who have installed firmware version 2.1 or later, which is not the case.
    I'm far from perfect. I make mistakes from time to time the same as you and as everyone else does. I made a mistake providing some info that is incorrect, but until you become a top user in any category here, I suggest you avoid critiquing my posts with "oddly", "no relevance", and what I'm "inferring" regarding what I include with my posts.

  • How do you cancel your debit card from itunes?

    I have had fraudulent use of my card details and wish to suspend my debit card from iTunes until the problem is resolved. I will then add new debit card details when I feel it is safe to do so. I have had my bank account emptied 3 times this year fraudulently, so I am cancelling all from my cards but do not want to close the accounts, but if that's all I can do I will.

    Log into your account in the iTunes Store from the 'Account' link in the right sidebar. Go to the 'Payment information' line and click the 'Edit' link to the right of it. At the top, where it shows the images for the various credit card types, click 'None'. At the bottom right, click 'Done'.

  • How  do you get your videos on the phone memory to your computer??

    I can't get my videos stored in my phone memory to my computer or sd card. I got a replacement phone, but I'm trying to get the videos off my old phone. I called tech support, but they were no help. Can anyone  help me?

    You should be able to plug in the phone to your pc via a usb cord and select to use it as a disk (you select this on the phone, not the pc). You can then view the phone's directory just like an external hard drive from Windows explorer. Then find the folder in the phone's directory and copy and paste the folder or the video files in the folder to the hard drive on the pc.

  • Does anyone use the Veho MUVI mini camcorder?  If so how do you download your video from it.  I plugged it into the USB port and my Mac doesn't show a removable disc on my desktop.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I am new to Mac and am not sure how to get my camcorder to be recognized by ny Mac.

    Welcome to the forums.
    To get the best array of responses, you should post your question as a new inquiry. Perhaps save yourself the time, however, and do a search on "MPEG Streamclip" in this forum and you'll see a variety of suggestions. Also, here are a couple websites:

  • How Do You Preview Your Videos On THe 3G S?  do you have to go to camera?

    to get to the videos recorded via the phone's camera, do you need to go to camera then switch it to videos then click on the thumb nail??
    another way?

    Videos taken with the Camera app are stashed in the Camera Roll album in the Photos app. So you can also view them by going into Photos and looking in Camera Roll. The thumbnail for each video is marked on the bottom with a little movie camera icon and the length of the video -- both of which distinguish videos from photos that might also still be in your Camera Roll (i.e., not yet transferred to your computer and deleted).

  • How do you get your money back from iTunes?

    I bought an album off of iTunes yesterday (Jason & deMarco, "Till The End of Time" and it was just beautiful so I went back today to buy an earlier album they offered called "Spirit Pop". EVERY song skips and is marred in some way, halting, as though there is a scratch on the record - but it is digital!!!
    I am so angry. I wasn't sure if it was me or the songs so I went back to iTunes and bought a single song from the album and got the same thing!
    So how do I complain to iTunes? I want my money back or an album that doesn't skip. When I go to iTunes they have no complaint department or area to write to Apple to ask for help!
    I won't buy from iTunes again unless I can get quality recordings.

  • How do you get your recorded vinyl to itunes

    I have been recording and stored my recordings using .wav. Now I want to start over on my new MBP but save using MP3.
    The old way was to record, save file track with name, put songs into a folder, then drag the songs over to a play list I created in the order of the track listing.
    This is not working for some reason with itunes 10
    Can anyone help with a good step by step.

    I can tell you what I did, which almost certainly isn't the "right" way, but it's a way that worked for me.
    As tracks from the records were played (B&O turntable, Crown preamp) they were recorded onto CD (Pioneer CD recorder).  After 12 tracks had been recorded (a completely arbitary number) I finalized the CD and carried it upstairs to the computer.  (At the start of this process the computer was a G5 running Leopard with iTunes 9.something; at the end it was a mini running Lion with iTunes 10.something.)
    The CD was placed in the computer's optical drive.  Since it was an audio CD at this point, iTunes opened, as well as the CD mounting onto the desktop.  For my purposes, though, I ignored iTunes and copied the files from the CD into a folder on my desktop.  (They were AIFF files.)  I opened these files and used QuickTime to preview them and trim them to eliminate excess dead air or bits of other songs. 
    I dragged these trimmed AIFF files into an iTunes playlist (named something like 'New Songs').  From there I could conveniently add information like song title, album title, composer, album art, etc., then convert them to Apple Lossless.  Once they'd all been converted, I deleted all AIFF files from the iTunes Music Library and that New Songs playlist.
    This worked fine for me - one of the songs is playing in the background right now.  I hope it helps.
    Good luck
