  • Can I move only my iTunes movies, not my iTunes music, onto a flash drive? And, is there a program (apart from iTunes) that can play movies on MacBook Air?

    I have a MacBook Air and I need to free up space...
    1) I have three series of a tv show on my itunes which are taking up loads of memory - see image - I want to move these movie files onto a Flash Drive. However I do not want to move my itunes Music onto the flash drive, only my Movies, and want to keep my music on my hard drive.
    Is this possible?
    2) I have managed to copy the movie files onto the flash drive, however when I tried to play one to check that they were loaded properly it didn't have a program that could run the file (they have copied over in a m4V format). Do the MacBook Air's not have a separate program other than itunes that can play movies? If so, is there a program I can get to solve this problem? I went onto the App Store to see if there was something I could download, but all the apps were for creating DVD's, not simply playing them.
    3) If 1. & 2. questions are solvable, will it then be safe to delete the movies from my itunes?
    Thank you so much for any answers posted.
    Best,

    If you can play the movies in iTunes, you should be able to open the movie files using Quicktime, which should already be on your system.  If you have already transferred the files to your flash drive, open the flash drive in Finder, and hold control when you click on the movie file (or right click if you have the enabled) and select Open With Quicktime Player.  This should play the movie directly from the flash drive. 
    If you want to set all .m4v files to open with Quicktime by just double clicking on the file, you can follow the steps here: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/2573/os_x_how_to_change_default_application_to_op en_file_type/
    3) If 1. & 2. questions are solvable, will it then be safe to delete the movies from my itunes?
    You can move the TV shows to your flash drive by dragging them from the iTunes window to your flash drive in Finder or the flash drive icon on the desktop.  When you are sure everything is transferred over to your external device, you can delete the movie from iTunes.  I recommend playing the videos from the flash drive first before deleting them in iTunes. 
    To delete the videos from iTunes, you can highlight them and press the delete key on your keyboard.  In the next prompt, you would want to move it to the trash so that it is deleted from your internal hard drive.  
    I hope that helps!

    after making the photo slide show, i clicked share>export movie.  after which i burned using toast. the file became a .mov.  i tried playing it in my mac and it worked. my fear now is will it also play in a regular dvd?... i read from google that mov files won't run in dvd players.  what format should i convert it to so it'll play in a dvd player.  can you suggest a faster way i can burn my projects for it takes me almost an hour to export.  im going to make 28 slideshows for my kids in school. *=( if i need to do this process 28 times, i may not be able to finish it on time.  please suggest a software or an alternative as to how i should do this... m more comfortable using imovie than iphoto.  thanks and i hope to hear from someone soon *=j

    Thank you QuickTimeKirk...used toast to burn project... my project was in .mov, i tried to play it a dvd player, it did play... will try again tomorrow using another dvd player just to be sure it'll will really work with dvd players.  thank you again for your reply *=)

  • HT1382 Is there anyway to convert video taken by ipad and burn it to a DVD that can play on DVD player?

    Is there anyway to convert video taken by ipad and burn it to a DVD that can play on DVD player?

    Persius,
    Nearly every DVD that will play on a set-top player *should* play on a computer, provided two things:
    1.) the computer has a DVD player that can handle that flavor of DVD media, DVD RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD DL, etc.
    2.) the computer has a software player installed. This feature has been removed from some common media players. You may need to locate, download and install a separate software player.
    There could be another discussion on interlaced vs progressive scan media, but I'll let you ask that question.

  • How to burn on CD from iTunes for car-audio?

    Hi!
    I am a iMac&iPhone user.
    I am trying to listen my music on itunes in my car.
    I tried to burn CD many times,
    But car audio doesn't recognise the file and I can't listen.
    It seems that MP3 file is working.
    But m4a is not worlking.
    How can I do?
    I DO aprreciate it if you will help me!!

    Hi bonkuro,
    If your car stereo can play the MP3 files on a burned CD but not the m4a files, it may be that the stereo is only configured to recognize MP3's, which is not uncommon. You may need to convert your files in iTunes to MP3's before burning them:

  • How to burn MP3 songs from iTunes 11?

    I wanted to find out how to burn my iTunes 11 music to a CD in the MP3 format.

    I'm assuming that you are familiar with the old iTunes platform but in case you are not  (or someone else is not) I'm giving detailed instructions.
    You need to create a playlist first. Go to the tiny square in the top left hand corner and select the drop down menu.
    Select "New" > "New Playlist"
    Give your playlist a name
    Then select the music you want to burn by searching for the album, artist genre etc. There is a search bar (w/magnifying glass icon) in the top right corner.
    Once the song appears right-click and select "Add to Playlist" > (playlist name)
    If you want to add multiple songs, or a whole album select the first song, press and hold the shift key while pressing the arrow down key to highlight all of the songs
    Note: If you aren't in full screen view arrow down may not select all songs in which case you will then arrow right.So press and hold "Shift" arrow down, then arrow right.
    Right click the highlighted songs and select "Add to Playlist" > (playlist name)
    At the top of your iTunes screen (beneath the rectangle) there is a menu going horizontally. It should say : Songs, Albums, Artists, Genres, Playlist, Radio, Match.
    Select "Playlist".
    There will be a list of your playlist on the left hand side. Select the playlist that you sent your songs(and/or album) to.
    Insert a blank disk into your drive.
    Select the tiny square drop down menu at the top left hand corner. Select "Show Menu Bar".  You should now see a horizontal menu  (top left) of your screen saying:
    File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help
    Select "File" > "Burn Playlist to Disc"
    A pop up window will appear giving you the option to change the burn settings. It is best to leave said settings alone unless you MUST change them for whatever reason.
    Select "Burn"
    The notification bar (long rectangle top center of iTunes window) will tell you that your CD had finished burning, Just eject and you're done!
    Hope this helps

  • How to easily delete songs from itunes that won't sync?

    I just bought my first ipod (a 32Gb Touch), however I have been using itunes for about two years and have about 4100 songs in itunes.
    After my initial install years ago, I tested the sync with a friends ipod. Now there are about 100 of these songs in itunes that were his, which prompt me that they can't sync everytime I sync my Touch.
    I would like to just delete them, but I don't see any way to sort or select these 100 songs in a group to delete them and I dread the idea of going through my large song list and deleting them one at a time.
    Does anyone have an easier way of mass selecting and deleting songs that won't sync? I wish itunes would let me do thins right from the list it was showing me, but no luck.
    Thanks!

    Sort by *Date Added* and they should all be at the same place in the list.

  • How can I view DVD's that I dubbed from old vhs tapes?  I finalized them and can play on other DVD players but not my IMac.  Is there a specific program?

    I dubbed DVD's from old VHS tapes.  I finalized them and can play tehm on differant DVD players, but on my IMac I can't play them.  Ultimately I want to create home movies with pics, but how can I play the DVD's?

    A DVD is a DVD, unless it's been authored in a non-standard way. When you insert it in your Mac, do you at least see the disk appear on the desktop? Does it have a VIDEO_TS folder in it, containing various files?
    If you open DVD Player manually (from the Applications folder), does it see it and start playing? If not, try downloading VLC (free) and see if that works.

  • How to burn audio CD from iTunes playlist

    How is this supposed to be done? It's not working for me.
    I tried preferences > advanced > burning, but it is just spitting out the CD and throwing up errors. At least it did that the first few times, but now it just doesn't respond at all when I click OK.
    This ucks.

    I intend to. I hope it is that. Is it possible to break your mac by using poor quality Cds? It really sounds bad when I put the CD in, like it is rattling about not making proper contact with the mechanism.

  • How to burn bought movies from iTunes to DVD's?

    I am wondering if I buy a movie on iTunes could I burn it on a DVD to watch on my DVD player? Do I have to use iMovie?

    The content owners are very strict on multi format copying of movies (unlike CDs)  If you want it on DVD you have to buy it again on DVD.  Of course you could just buy it on DVD and stick it in your computer -- except Apple seems to be phasing out including optical drives on its computers since you can, after all, buy the movie on the iTunes Store and if you want to see it on your TV you can also go out and buy an Apple TV so you play your Apple purchased movie on your Apple purchased Apple TV...
    One thing to do is just get movies on DVD and check if there is a digital download option where you can also download a version for your computer.

  • How do I contact someone from Thunderbird that can help me set up my email

    I have forgotten my email address and can not find a way to access or update Thunderbird to allow me to use a new password!!! I am trying not to pull all of my hair out of my head. Part of the problem was that my server was Knology.net and Mozilla, after many years of using this account, would not recognize Knology........ I recently, Dec. 2014, had my computer hacked and had to replace it. I love Firefox and Thunderbird and my red stuffed critter. Could someone please consider helping me? Thanks.

    No-one can help you very much with not knowing your email address.
    It would help to know who your current provider is, or perhaps more to the point, what they call themselves now.
    There are many free providers (google, hotmail/outlook.com/yahoo/gmx, and in all probability your ISP) and it's probably easier to start over afresh.
    My search for knology.net took me to here: http://www.wowway.com/home-map so they may have been absorbed or rebranded. I note there was a change in smtp setting being discussed there.
    It looks like a very basic service (plain pop/smtp, no encryption) and you could easily find something else a little more modern.
