Can't sync home videos to iphone 5, iTunes 11.1.4

Hi,
For some reason, after successfully doing this many times (I already have some home videos on my iphone 5), when I sync a 7 minute home video in 720p H264 quicktime movie format from itunes to my iphone 5, it does not appear on the iphone 5 under videos. I have got manual sync enabled so that I can check only specific video files I want to sync.
I have already tried:
- checking all video types in the video app and it doesn't appear
- changing the video type in 'get info' to 'movie' - didn't work
- deleting and re-importing the video file to itunes - didn't work
- convering the video file within itunes to iphone - didn't work
- closing itunes and turning off the phone, turning phone back on and opening itunes - didn't work
- syncing via cable - didn't work
- syncing via wifi - didn't work
- unchecking the video, syncing, then re-checking the video, syncing - didn't work
Then I tried syncing some other home videos, and they do not appear on the iphone 5, after waiting for the sync to finish. I guess this rules out any particular video file and suggests a sync issue.
I have 34.16gb free space according to both itunes and the iphone 'about' settings on the iphone. The video I want to add is only ~400mb.
In checking some other threads, I could not find an answer.
Your suggestions to resolve this one would be greatly appreciated...

I also found, finally, that selecting "manually manage" for the device on the summary page in iTunes for the helped.

Can't sync Aperture Photos with iPhone under iTunes 10

I've recently upgraded to iTunes 10 and when I go to the photos section under the iPhone sync options, I can select either sync all photos or sync selected projects under sync with iPhoto, but as soon as I select Aperture it greys out the selected projects option, and reports 0 photos in Aperture to sync at all. This also happened when iTunes9 was first released and magically fixed itself some months later. Does anyone know why my Aperture library no longer appears to iTunes10 and how can I get it to find it?
Cheers
Garry

I am having the same problem, I cannot select Projects if A3 is selected in iTunes. If All faces, albums and projects is selected the sync crashes almost immediately after starting the image routine.
1) Deleted the iPod data directory and files - no joy
2) Repaired, rebuilt database - no joy
3) Flipped sharing preference bit on, and off between program executions - no joy
4) Searched database for filenames with symbols in the file name. Found a couple - exported them from my project and deleted the masters - no joy
Then I noticed my facebook folders were syncing files DOWN from facebook and giving them very long filenames. Well, not long in the unix community - but upwards of 50 characters in length. Im wondering if anyone else has noticed this and if this could be the culprit.
In any case - until this is run to ground I am unable to use my iPad for the primary purpose for which it was purchased - as a mobile display of my portfolio.
Going to sleep now - been up for 24 hours. I think I will try deleting my facebook folders completely (from facebook) and then will see what happens.

Anyone know why I can't sync my music from iphone to itunes?

I've tried syncing my iphone to my itunes library, tried transfering them as well....no luck. The songs appear in the itunes library but have an "!" in front of them. I've tried locating them and when I go to my computer where it says they are not there. I am up to date with downloads and have a iphone 4s and itunes is on my pc windows7. I can play them on the phone only.

When you reinstalled iTunes, did you remove and reinstall by the exact steps listed here? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
You will need to do it that way. That would be the only thing I can think of that would be stopping the transfer of purchases. If you go into Task Manager and Services, is the Apple Mobile Device Service running? If you go into Device manager when the phone is connected, do you see the Apple Device Driver listed under USB devices? Have you tried disconnecting the phone and then rebooting the computer, then doing a reset on the phone holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone reboots and the computer reboots, connect them again?

Can you sync attachments from an iPhone to a Windows PC with Outlook 2007?

Can you sync attachments from an iPhone to a Windows PC with Outlook 2007? I would like to receive email on the iphone with attachments and then sync the attachments to a Windows XP PC with Outlook 2007 without Outlook 2007 having to connect to the mail server itself and having to separely download the attachment. Is this possible?
I have only tried one pdf file which downloaded wonderfully to the iPhone. I synced to the PC without the PC being connected to the email account. This also worked except that when I tried to open the attachment on the PC I got a message that the mail wasn't fully downloaded. When I went on=line on the PC, it downloaded the attachment. I would love to have this option because I can't access some email accounts from my corporate computer.

No it is not. The only information synced regarding email accounts is the email account information only and this is in one direction only - from your computer to the iPhone via iTunes.

So I keep trying to sync music to my iPhone from iTunes, and whenever I select the album the sync goes by really fast and nothing goes onto my phone. Then when I click "On this iPhone" it shows the songs, but they're grey, and I can't click on them. Help?

Ok, sorry. And yes, I just restored my iPhone as new and tried to put all the songs on there before I even restored with my previous backup, but it still does the same thing... even when I just checked the option to sync only "selected music or videos". How's that possible?
P.S. After I tried syncing with checked songs only, nothing showed up under Music on my phone and this message popped up in iTunes: "The iPhone "..." could not be synced because the sync session failed to finish." If you could, please tell me what that means, thanks.

How Can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail?

How can I sync contacts FROM my iPhone TO my AOL E-mail? In other words, I want to keep all of my iPhone contact information intact and make AOL "mirror" it (and not wipe it out when I sync thru iTunes).

The iPhone supports syncing contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007, or with Windows Contacts with Windows, and with the Address Book or with the Entourage address book on a Mac.
If you aren't currently using one of the supported applications on your computer for contact info - the supported address book application on your computer is empty, before syncing contacts enter one contact in the supported application on your computer. Make this contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data with the supported application on your computer, which you want to select.
After this, you can export the contacts from the supported application on your computer that is supported for import by your AOL online address book - if AOL includes such an option.

I am in exactly the same problem here as this person. Exactly the same problem.
No, it was not jailbroken. And now because it's in this loop, there's no ability to restore and such on itunes as the only option now is ever 'eject'.
