Ipod photo with video

when is apple going to provide a new software update that will enable ipod photo users to view also videos

This has been discussed when the video iPod first came out.
The answer is... No.
Why? The video iPod has some extra hardware (chips) that handle the video, where-as the photo iPod does not. So the photo iPod can't handle the current video.
Although, there is the Linux on an iPod "hack" that does allow limited video.

  • Sync iPod Photo with iTunes 10.x

    Hello my friends!
    I'm using SL and iTunes 10. I found my old iPod Photo with it's 30GB hdd.
    I tried to hook it up to my iMac and sync but iTunes doesn't reconize the iPod.
    Is the support for old iPods dropped or is there another reason I can't sync it?
    Thanks!

    I would like to sync my "touch" with iTunes via Bluetooth. This would eliminate the need to plug in the USB cable each time I carry out this activity. Can someone explain to me why Apple has decided not to implement this? Will the next release of iTunes support this? Or, does it require some kind of a third part app to do this?
    it's currently not possible. bluetooth on the Touch supports headsets only.
    as for the future, only Apple knows.

  • Ipod classis with videos not showing on TV with connection - Help

    Got a new Ipod classic as I got into an accident with my first ipod. Trying to play videos (movie) from ipod classic to tv. Bought Belkin video connector and use with my old ipod. With the ipod classic, when I plug in, i can only hear the sound of the movie but cannot see the picture. need assistance. thanks

    I had to replace my old 80gig Ipod, so I bought the new 160 gig classic. When I pugged it into my Sonic Impact V55 audio-video player that the old one worked fine in it will not work. The sound works for the music files, but when I use the TV out to play videos it says to connect the Ipod even when it is already connected. The same thing happens with a Belkin audio-video cord. The Sonic people say that this is because Apple changed the software in the new classic Ipods. I have spent a lot of money on accessories and can't believe Apple would do this without a remedy. Help!!

  • Merge Still Photos with Video Clips?

    I have an iMovie project containing only video clips in the timeline, arranged by capture date/time. I also have an iPhoto file containing still photos of similar material. How can I import all of the iPhoto stills into the iMovie project such that the photos are inserted within the timeline and combined with the video clips so that everything (photos and videos) is arranged by date/time? Is that possible? If not, can someone suggest a script that will do just that?

    iM is no 'scriptable' app, video editing is usually no process for any automatic tasks...
    I would...
    * give the photos some names which indicates where in timeline of the iM project they belong (numbers 1,2,...? a date...?)
    * place photos manually into time of project...
    ... yes, video-editing is sometimes a painstaking, time-consuming tasks ... ;))

  • Use ipod photo for video on external monitor

    Apple support article ID: 300251 reads that "iPod photo supports displaying video on an external video source." Can someone explain how to put video on the ipod photo. I imported my video into iTunes 6 but then when synchronizing it doesn't seem to appear on my ipod photo.
    Powerbook, i book, i book G4, G4 cube, ipod, ipod photo, ipod video   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    the ipod phot does not support viewing video on the ipod itself. the ipod photo lacks the chipset needed to play videos. There is no way around this fact. If you want to play video then buy the new ipod.

  • Can the ipod photo display video ?

    I have an ipod photo 60GB & i was wondering if it can display video if i updated its software & downloaded itunes 6.

    No. Not at this time. Technically, hackers have been able to get the photo to play video, but only when they installed Linux on their iPod, so not a real practical solution. That said, the screen on the photo is too small for video, so if you really want video best bet is to sell the photo and get a 5G. The screen is a LOT nicer and readable than another other iPod screen to-date.

  • Replacing HD on iPod Photo with a bigger one?

    Greetings all;
    My iPod Photo HD Recently bust the dust. I intend to replace it, but while I am at it I was wondering if I can replace it with a larger one. Anyone out there up-sized his/her iPod Photo HD from the stock 20 Gig to a 30 Gig HD or even larger? Did the iPod recognized the entire disk or just 20 Gig out of it, which makes up-sizing pointless.
    Thanks;
    Moore

    Since this forum is for the much newer iPod Classic, you'd probably get better answers if you posted here: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=151

  • Ipod Photo with frozen mousewheel

    My I was just listening to my music on my Ipod Photo.
    I wanted to turn it of and turned the hold button off and held the play/pause button. When it didnt turn off, i tried a simple reset to see if that would help. by then i noticed my mousewheel didnt respond at all.
    When i was back home i restored it to the factory settings and so on... i tried everything multiple times, but my mousewheel still doesnt respond. I find this trange cause before the problem, my ipod worked nearly perfectly.
    Since i live in holland i cant find any other repair service then apple itself. i'm skilled enough to change the battery and hard disk myself if needed, but i dont know anything about the rest.
    can anyone help me with this problem?

    hi jenny,
    no problem at all. Just hook it up and name it. Should be no problem with the one firewire connector. i have both an iPod and shuffle hook up at the same time. itunes shows them both in the source column.

  • 60Gb iPod Photo with Olympus 8080

    Gearing up to buy a 60Gb iPod Photo and wonder what I will need to dock it with my Olympus 8080 and download photos from the Compact Flash card into the iPod Photo. Can someone point me in the right direction as to the options to achieve this.
    Thanks a bunch in advance.

    Just to report back in order to hopefully help others with the same query. I purchased an iPod Camera Connector (M9861G/A) and can now import pics from the 8080 through the adapter and USB cable that came with the camera directly to iPod. It works a treat...........

  • Is there a way to play video on the iPod Photo with color display 60 GB?

    Just curious. Can you download and play video with this model? It does about everything else. Any help that someone can offer me will be appreciated.

    You can only play video's with the new 5th generation iPods.

  • Using iPod photo with a new USB 2.0... is not working

    I'm new to the forum, so I hope I posted in the right category.
    I have a Toshiba Tecra 8200, with Windows XP. I used to have Usb 1.0 I believe, or 1.1, and well, my iPod was running quite slow. I used to connect it to my other computer which has built-in USB 2.0, and it worked perfectly in my laptop and the other Sony Vaio. I bought a slot card that added an extra Fire Wire slot, and two USB 2.0 slots. I connect my iPod to the USB 2.0 slots, and what I get is just the 'Do not disconnect screen' for a while, and before it used to give me an 'OK to disconnect screen', but now it just jumps right on to the regular Menu, Photos, Extras, Etc. iPod interface. My computer recognizes it as a massive storage device, even in that screen or whichever screen it is on, but iTunes doesn't. I just installed the newest version of iTunes.
    I tried everything on the help articles here at apple.com/support, I enabled all of my USB ports so that they don't turn off when not used, I went to device manager and went to the iPod properties and disabled the option that said 'Make device easy to plug off' or something similar, and yet nothing happens.
    I hope you can help me, because this is just driving me crazy, I've been for days trying to connect it and I can't, I just can through my old USB 1.0 and it's of no use.
    -Alex

    I just don't know what to do. I disabled the high speed interfaces, like the article said. I restarted the computer, and connected the iPod. It wasn't even recognized. I re-enabled the high-speed interfaces, and restarted the computer. I connected the iPod, and the same thing happened: It says 'Do not disconnect' for a very short while (A few seconds) and then the Menu Photos Etc. flashes then it says Ok To Disconnect and a checkmark. I tried to safely remove hardware from windows and when I selected Massive storage device E: from the list, it said 'Can't eject Apple USB Device, try again later' (Something like that, it was in spanish). So the computer recognizes it's an iPod, but in My PC it shows up as a massive storage device, not like 'Alex's iPod' when connected to USB 1.0.
    I really need help with this. I don't know if I can afford to buy a Fire Wire cable and probably then it wouldn't be recognized either.

  • Importing photos with video

    Using Premiere Elements 11, I have a video with audio loaded. I'd like to import photos to overlay on the video while the audio runs continuously, so that the movie alternates original video clips with photos I've overlaid, but the soundtrack isn't changed. Is this possible?

    Yes, but with one caveat. If you just drag your Still Image to the same Video Track, as your Video Clip, it can separate your Audio, and that is not what you want to happen. If you just drag the Still Images, you will cause the Video & its Audio to split, then move over, to accommodate the Duration of the Still Image. Instead, you can hold down the Ctrl modifier key, to Insert the Still, replacing the Frames of the Video Clips.
    However, as PrE allows one to use Clips, or Still Images on other Video Tracks, I find it easier to just drag the Still Image to, say Video Track 2, where it will visually replace the Frames of the Video Clip below it. That will NOT break your Audio. The Video, or Still Images, above a Video Clip, will visually replace what is below, unless one creates a way to look "around," or "through" that upper Clip/Still, just like a PiP (Picture in Picture).
    One neat feature in Premiere Pro is the ability to Lock Tracks, say the Audio, so that it is NEVER changed, regardless of what is done with the Video.
    Hope that this helps, and good luck,
