I can't Sync my movies with Ipod Vid 30 Gigs

Hi
I have an Ipod Video 30 Gigs black. I can sync all kind of music, calendar and photos (I did not have problems with that). But I tried to sync .mov, .mp4 movies, The simpsons movie potcast, and others videos formats. When the Itunes is syncing with the Ipod a message is showing:
"The movie was not copied to the Ipod because it cannot be played on this Ipod".
I tried a lot of ways but nothing happens. And the message is the same all time.
Anyone knows what is the problem?
Thanks
Daniel

I'm having the same problem with my 30GB U2 iPod. I used iSquint to convert my video, and it plays perfectly fine on my iTunes, but it just goes to a black screen when I try to play it on my iPod. The movie is in Mpeg-4 format, which is supposed to work on the iPod-- right?

  • Can not sync Planes movie with iPod Touch

    I have recently purchased the Planes movie so my son can have it on his iPod Touch.  It has downloaded to my iTunes account but will not sync with his iPod.  I get the error message ( "Planes" was not copied to the iPod ... because it cannot be played on this iPod )  He has 5.83 GB free.  I have tried different USB ports and hubs.  We have been able to install multiple other movies and play them just fine.

    Likely the version you download is too high resolution for the iPod.
    Try going to the Purchased section in the iTunes store and see there a a version with less resolution available for download. Look for SD version.

  • Can't Sync "All Contacts" with iPod Touch 2nd Generation

    I have an older 2nd Gen iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1) and a 2011 MacAir running Mountain Lion (MacOS 10.8) and the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3).  The Contacts application on the MacAir is syncing the "All on my Mac" group (84 contacts) with my iPod, rather than syncing with "All Contacts" (100 contacts).  Is there a way to change this?  I never setup the "All on my Mac" group so I don't know how that group got defined.  I assumed it appeared as part of the Mountain Lion (or Lion) upgrades, but I'm not sure.   I realize that iTunes provides the option of syncing with "All" or "Selected Groups"  I have selected "All" but am still only getting the contacts from the "All on my Mac" group rather than "All Contacts."
    P.S. Since the 2nd Gen iPod Touch cannot run iOS5 I can only sync through USB cable...no iCloud.
    Help!

  • I can't sync my playlists with ipod classic or a new ipod touch.

    I have been having problems with my iPod Classic in my car.  Colleague used his iphone with no issues. I reset my iPod classic to original factory settings but now when I sync my playlists with iTunes are not included.  Very strange.

  • Can't sync music library with iPod Touch

    I gave my iPod to my son. He erased my music library and put his on. He gave iPod back. I erased all his music and tried to reload my music library. I updated iTunes from Apple website. Could not successfully transfer ANY music.
    I searched through discussions and found some suggestions. I restored iPod to original settings, removed everything.
    Apps I originally had on the iPod and some new ones synced beautifully. Music library would not. Unclicked manually managed iTunes. Unclicked Sync all iTunes in library. Clicked APPLY where applicable. Uninstalled iTunes on PC and reinstalled. iTunes will not sync.
    I cannot put a checkmark on all songs in the library. The checkmarks will only go so far down and then quit. There are too many to do that manually.
    it has 59.42 GB capacity, 4.3.1 software version.
    So what do I do to syn my music library? And what are the exclamation marks appearing to the left of the column for check marks? Sometimes they appear and sometimes not.
    I would appreciate any help you can give me. I am at my wit's end. Thank you.

  • Can't sync tv shows with ipod

    I am trying to sync TV shows I purchased and downloaded from iTunes with my ipod nano.  I select "Devices", "TV Shows", check "Sync TV Shows", then then check TV shows I want to sync, and select "sync".   The status bar indicates syncing, determines tracs to sync, and completes sync.  But no TV shows are on my iPod (checking under Video, TV Shows).  I've also tried to drag the shows from the library to a playlist.  They showup on the playlist on the computer, but not on the playlist on my iPod.  I am not having problems syncing music.  The TV shows are animated Bugs Bunny episodes.

    Holmanranch,
    Do you have the Sync only checked songs and videos option ticked from under your iPod's Summary tab as well?  If so, that could be a possible cause. 
    One thing you could try is to remove the tick mark next to Sync TV Shows and apply the changes to remove any and all TV Shows from your iPod.  Then reapply the tick mark and again sync the changes to your iPod and see if that makes a difference.

  • I've had a fault with the hard drive on my laptop, it's been replaced and now my iphone and ipod can not sync unpurchased items with itunes. Is there anyway of sorting this without uploading all of my CD's again?

    If your CDs are on your iPod/iPhone, they can be recovered from there,see this post:

    Your problem shows the importance of making backups.

  • Why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)?

    I am using iTunes 11.0 and can sync a movie (Miracle on 34th Street) to my new ipod nano 7th gen but when I try a TV Show (a Planet Earth HD episode) or even a brief video clip taken with my camara I am told that such an action is not permitted on this ipod.  So why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)?  Thank you.

    Before you can sync video files, it must be converted into a format compatible with ipod.  If you can’t sync a video convert it by doing the following:
    In iTunes, select the video you want to convert. Do one of the following then sync again after:
    1) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPod or iPhone Version.
    2) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version.
    I hope this works.

    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

  • HT203180 how can I sync a movie downloaded on itunes from my personal computer that is authorized for my daughter's ipad, but the purchased movie was done under my apple id

    To start off, I absolutely do not understand iTunes.  I feel that with every new "upgrade" it becomes more difficult to use.
    We have 3 apple ID's for our home to make syncing easier and not have complications with devices.  I have a window's computer with itunes which is "authorized computer" for all 3 apple ID's in family (mom, dad, child).  We purchased a DVD with digital copy, installed and redeemed the code for the digital copy.  However, it would not allow me to "redeem" on my child's apple ID.  therefore, the digital copy went into my apple id.  Now I can not sync the movie to my child's ipad/apple id.  How can this be done?  Please help!  I know it can't be that hard, or is Apple just making iTunes worse and worse.

    The movie is from iTunes.   You would think that a download from iTunes to a MacBook could be watched on an HDTV using Apple TV without any headaches bit this does not appear to be the case.

  • How can I sync a .mov file of a home-made video?

    How can I sync a .mov file of a home-made video?

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
