Import of video not from itunes

I would like to know if and how I could save and see on my ipod any video that I can get not from itunes but from other sites or for instance from a cdrom.
I thank anyone who can give me some informations about my question.

The iPod will only accept videos in MP4 format, if your videos are anything else then you would need to find software to convert them.
There's information on videos here: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/tutorial/ipgettingstartedt12.html

  • Import Music Video Clips from iTunes

    Doing some creative intro videos using iTunes 6.0.3 music videos. Want to import to iMovie 4.0.1. do some editing & then use it back in iTunes as a music video. But iMovie won't recognize it. Stuck. How do I do it???

    Nail on the head Sue.
    I thought the users profile was out of date. Maybe not and they are using QT 6 which doesn't support the new H.264 video codec.
    iMovie wouldn't import the file either without QT 7 being installed.

  • Videos (Not From iTunes Store)

    I'm still new to iPod. I'd like to point that out right away...
    Well, I tried to put some videos that I had saved on my computer into iTunes, but it didn't work. I pretty much only got my iPod to watch videos, but since they aren't working, it feels like a waste to me.
    If anyone could give me some help on how to get my vids into iTunes, that would be great.
    If you need any other information about my iPod/computer, just ask.

    hello, ipod only accept mp4 or h264 format videos, you will need to have a 3rd party converter tool to help you to convert your own movie then you can put in itunes, see this detailed comparison chart and reviews of the top 5 selling ipod video converters

  • Can I download a free exercise video to my computer (not from Itunes)and then  to my ipod nano, and then show it on my tv, and if so how?

    Can I download a free exercie video (not from Itunes) to my computer, then to my ipod nano, and then show it on my tv?

    If you have a compatible video file, you can add it to your iTunes library by dragging it to the iTunes window, or by using the command
    iTunes menu bar -> File -> Add to Library...
    If the video is in a format that iTunes can play, it should be imported and appear as a new item in the iTunes Movies library.
    It may not be playable on the nano directly, because of its format.  For example, if it's "HD," the resolution is too high for a nano's screen.  If it plays in iTunes, but not on the nano, you can use the command to covert it. Select the item in a list and then
    iTunes menu bar -> File -> Create New Version -> Create iPod or iPhone Version
    That version should play on an iPod nano.  NOTE:  Some videos downloaded from the iTunes Store cannot be converted to a lower resolution format, because they have DRM (copy protection).

    Paid for (not from Itunes store) music downloaded not showing up in library as usual. Imported CD also not appearing as usual. What gives?

    I have seen 3 potential solutions in this forum
    1) If you are using iTunes Match Store > Update iTunes Match
    2) Logging out of itunes store and logging in again
    3) Downloading Free single of the week - no idea why this should work but people have reported it does

  • 7.01 & videos downloaded from iTunes

    I had to go back down from 7.04 to 7.01 in order to import footage to FCE. So, does that mean I can't watch videos purchased from iTunes? I tried watching videos - I can see the video but can't hear the sound. Is this a case of damned if you do and damned if you don't?

    this is creepy - I have 7.04 on the G5, which is running 10.3.9 and I can hear the audio when I play video downloaded from iTunes but can't see anything. when I boot to the external hard drive, which is running 10.4.5, I don't get anything at all.

  • Burning video downloaded from ITunes

    is there a way to change the format of downloaded 'Shows' (not music) from ITunes (ex: 'The Office') to be able to save them in, and burn them w/ IDVD instead of ITunes? I want to be able to play the video downloaded from 'ITunes' in a regular DVD player. As it stands now, you can only playback these episodes on your Mac or an IPod... Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,

    I don't believe there is a way of changing the Format. But there is an accessory
    that you can get in the Apple Store(you can access that from the home page)
    that will allow you to connect your iPod directly to your TV and play everything from it on your TV. RCA patch cords for sound and S-Video that will adapt from
    your iPod to the TV.

  • How do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto?  Photoes came across, video said incompatible.

    how do I import my video files from old iPhoto - in time machine - to new iPhoto?  Photoes came across, video said incompatible.
    i have moved from a mac pro to a mac mini,
    Mini now has mavericks and latest iLife stuff, I clicked import, was all good, then at end, no videos came across.
    Is Mavericks,/iPhoto having a compatibiltiy issue with some video formats....???
    Your help is appreciated gang.: )

    Please describe exactly what you did. In moving to a new machine no importing is involved. The best way is to simply connect the two computers together and drag the iPhoto library from the old one to the pictures folder go the new one and launch iPhoto
