I can't put videos onto my iPod

I have the videos in a play list called videos, and when i try to upload them, it says upload complete but when i go to find them on my iPod or in my list of songs on my iPod in iTunes, they aren't there. I'm doing everything the manuals say to do but they won't go. and when i try to convert the selection for my iPod it gives me an error message and when i try it again i get this message that iTunes has experienced an error and has to be closed.

Try posting in the iTunes for Windows area. You'll be more likely to get a quick and accurate answer there than you will here in the iTunes for Macintosh forum. Good luck.

I Can't Put Songs Onto My iPod Touch!

whenever i go onto iTunes and try to put songs onto my iPod using the click and drag method i get this message - 'the iPod "George's iPod" cannot be synced. The disk could not be read from or written to'. What can i do? Please, anyone, even a guess will do...
By the way i have the latest version of iTunes and the latest system thing on my Touch.

I have seen this article listed on many requests for help. I have tried these fixes but the iTouch will get about 200 songs into the sync and then will give the same message. I have successfully synced the iTouch to my laptop (Vista system)but that is not the primary computer for the touch. Are there any other ideas/solutions?

Putting video onto an iPod: How?

I need a seriously deep tutorial from someone about putting my DVDs and internet videos onto iTunes (and then onto my iPod). I use a Windows PC and need a step-by-step-by-step guide on how I go about doing this. Thank you very much

Now, one last thing. You said in a different thread that I need to use a DVD decryptor before I use Videora. What is it and how does it work? Also the machine that I have iTunes on can't play DVDs. I can do all the converting on a seperate machine that can play DVDs but if I put the file on my iPod external hard disk and transfer it over to my regular machine, will it be able to read the file? Even if it can't, will I still be able to put it on iTunes and susequently, my iPo and play it as normal??

How can I put video into my ipod

Please tell me how can I put the videos in my ipod by using itunes? I try to put the DVD but it didnt appeare in my itunes. I cant add the video to my library

Would you happen to know what format the Music Video is that you are trying to import? iTunes can only support a few kinds: MPEG, MPEG-4, and MOV.
Make sure you are converting the file to an iTunes compatible format.
If it is a WMV or AVI, it will probably not work. In this case, find a third-party program to convert these files for you. Search Google for free options.

I use a video camera to film stuff and can't put video on my iPod touch.

Hi,
I use a video camera to film stuff... and can't put the filming on my ipod touch...Is their any way of being able to put it in my ipod touch?
Thanks

did you already add the movie to your iTunes library and does is play in iTunes ?
if so, in iTunes, click on the file once to highlight it and, from the advanced menu, choose +create iPod or iPhone version+. try syncing the newly created file to your Touch.
does that work ?

Can't get videos onto new iPod Nano 3G

Ok i can not put any movie type on to my iPod nano not even: mp4 mov avi or other things...I NEED halp here people. Give me any method you can even converters but they can only be for mac. please i will take any response

I've been using (quite successfully) Videora iPod Converter and it works so well it blew my mind the first time I used it. Of course I'm a bit of a power user, but the normal mode is so handy I can't help but to use it. Not sure if it works on a mac though. I tried to look, but couldn't find anything that explicitly says mac.

Can you put documents onto an ipod classic ?

At present I create documents in Pages and print them on index cards for studying. Is there a way to create a document that can be downloaded onto an Ipod classic to be read on the screen?
<Post Relocated by Moderator>

Export the documents to plain text and then follow the instructions in this article. Only 4000 characters of a note and 1000 notes total will be displayed on the iPod.

It just sits there not putting any songs onto my iPod and then comes up with a message that it doesn't work. Please someone help this is getting very annoying!

How about the problems in iTunes 5? Are they better now?
hello Mr Bond!
apologies for the late reply ... during the early weeks of the 5.0x launches, my email went down and i wasn't getting any notification of replies to my posts. at that stage, i was pretty much trapped in "Installations & Upgrades" so i couldn't get out to my other favorite forums to check for replies to any of my posts ... i'm currently working through a backlog of 500 unanswered email notifications, saw your post, and decided to take the opportunity to have a chat.
update from our last communications. traffic levels are certainly down in Installations and Upgrades. our primary concerns over there at the moment are probably the nastier versions of the QuickTime 1402, and the newer variations on "the software required for communicating ..." and "Ipod Service Error". I'm taking this (in a perverse way) as a good sign. these were rarer sorts of errors at the height of the madness. so when the discussions are being dominated by the rarer sorts of errors, it suggests we've got a good handle on the other 5.0.x installation problems.
the "general mood" of the forum is still a little more bitter than in the 4.9 days. but it has improved considerably over the past couple of weeks. (however, giving helpful and descriptive titles to posts and threads still seems to be a lost art over there ... i'm not entirely sure why.)
i am hoping that i shall

exceed your tally of posts any time soon. i actually find it a little disturbing that i have passed both Buegie and StarDeb recently. back in my early days of posting, i used to wonder "how on earth does anyone accumulate 4000 posts?" ...

How do I put videos onto my iPod video?, My country hasnt got itunes....

My country doesnt have the itunes music store, so how do I put movies/Music videos on my ipod video?

You should download Videora iPod Convertor and the convert your movie files to iPod format with this. It is shareware. I am sorry that I could not provide the link, but their page was down at the moment. Do a search in Google. I am sure they will be up again soon.
If you don't have any movie files I will let somebody else help you to get that! Most is illeagal you know!

I can't put Podcasts onto my iPod Nano, even tho it says i can on the site!

I've tried manually updating the podcasts, automatically updating, dragging, stuff like that but it still appears tht i can't get podcasts on it!
Some help would be most appreciated!!
thanx

Hi thomas-paton,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with the most recent iTunes update. If you are having issues dragging individual files to your iPod nano when connected in iTunes, you may want to make sure that the "Manually manage music and videos" option is selected, as outlined in the following article:
Manage content manually on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod - Apple Support

I think iPod requires special settings when your captured video is rendered to the .mp4 (AAC/AVC) format. I use SONY Vegas 7 video editor which uses the Mainconcept .mp4 encoder (http://www.mainconept.com). Everything is automatic and it has worked flawlessly for me. Just select the templates specifically for iPod video. One is 320x240. Use this if you are not going to output your iPod to a TV. The other setting is 640X480. This takes significantly more memory but gives excellent quality if you output the iPod video to a TV.
Also, I think that Quick Time Pro (upgrade from Quick Time free program for $30 US) can convert and re-save video files to iPod format (not sure about this). Other video editing programs probably have iPod rendering feature built-in or available on web.
I wouldn't blame Apple. Video output formats are, in my unqualified opinion, very complex since each of many different file formats can be encoded using numerous settings to satisfy specific user and hardware needs. Apple probably chose their format based on widest compatibility (downloaded videos, PodCasts, etc.) Note however that not all Podcasts are compatible with iPod.

Very upset that I can not put videos on my 5g 60gb ipod

I paid near $600 for a 5g 60gb ipod of which does not come with any software to help one transfer video to the ipod. Apple expects me to use itunes to surf to their website to pay and d/l music videos for $1.99 or movie trailers.
but what if I have a large collection of dvd movies? well apples answer is to cough up $20 for quicktime pro which claims it can do this, help encode movie files for playback on ipod. To make matters worse you ahve to pay another $20 for the mpeg encoder so you can actually encode vob files into .mp4 format.
I admit I paid a bit more for my 5g because i know the issue apple has had with poor batteries so i got a warranty plan. Well for $500 apple will just screw you beccause you have to cough up another $40 for software that claims it can help encode for playback in the ipod, but the truth it the software hangs at 100% and fails to finish.
please explain to me why I have to pay $40 more for something that does not work and which should come included with the ipod 5g 60gb for $500.
I'm looking for a 1 click solution to convert my dvd movies collection into a playable format which i can upload to my ipod with 0 problems from start to end.

I've spent weeks now trying to take a dvd movie I have and putting it on a .mp4 file format and i'm having lousy luck with it. I've tried videora v2.0 and more than half the time the application hangs/crashes when it gets to the end. Also tried imtoo mpeg encoder and imtoo psp video converter and both of these apps will hang when it reaches the end of the movie and it does this randomly. Once in a while the mentioned apps will 100% convert the movie.
When I bought my 5g ipod it was made clear it could play digital video but apple misleads you because they make it sound like, after paying $500 you would have the tools to do it with included for the price. Even after I shelled out extra money for quicktime pro 7 and the mpeg encoder, it still fails. So far 4 apps can not seem to do the job. Its really a hit or miss if it actually converts a file. Thus far I've managed to convert only 3 movies out of 2 dozen dvd movies I've tried, and I experimented on 3 machines to just be sure.
I am not going to pay extra money to send away my ipod to have movies put on it that I already own, thats not a solution. your solution is to throw more money at the problem to fix it when in fact apple needs to seriously rethink about the blunder they have made and correct the problem.
first apple, needs to bundle/add software which can do the job, ie. quicktime pro with the mpeg encoder. This is their answer to the question people are asking "how to put dvd movies on my ipod". Next they need to have real support for the problem. Myself and my friend have been fighting with apple support for the past few weeks in trying to find a working solution to get dvd movies onto my ipod.
Using itunes to download movie trailers to my ipod is not the same as having a real movie. I find no interest in the poor selection of music videos either. I have my own collection. I just want to use what I have.
I find it dishonorable and a disgusting tactic by part of apple to sell a product for $500 that won't even let you take a dvd movie from your collection and enable you to put it on the ipod. I agree there does not seem to be an easy solution to the problem (I've tried other video app solutions which all fail) however I dont see apple making any real efforts and or documenting the issue.
its like when I first bought my 1g ipod and the battery failed after 1 month, it went from 8 hours of use down to 30min and when I called apple for help they said I had to send it in to be replaced for the price of a new one!!!!! and that is a very real fact!!! So now it sound like I should return my ipod, and buy a new ipod thru some website which will preload it with dvd movies. please, gimme a break. if they can do it then why not just document the process to do this and make the software available for owener of 5g ipods so they can in fact put video on their ipod.
now I have a 5g ipod, battery seems fine thus far but there really is no way to put the video one has collected on it, none what so ever and apples solution is buy their software which fails to work too!!!!
for some reason every aplication I've tried seems to hang when it gets to the end of the movie or its some other problem that leads to a dead end.
