Gettin videos from dig cam etc -- to iPod plus probs w/vids havin no sound

I have at my witz end. I will be so thankfull if anyone is able to help me. I have been on the phone everyday with Apple's cust. support # trying to get videos I have from my Sony DSC T-1 dig camera to my iPod video. I have downloaded quicktime pro witht eh 30 dollars upgrade off of apples website. I have been going to (in quicktime program) FILE ....EXPORT....(under export i selected movie to ipod 320 x 240) and then double click on the file I want. It then brings upt eh export bar...gets thru that perfectly and then the file will have a 2nd copy with the iTunes icon next to it instead of the icon of the program it orgionally came from. Then as I did to transfer it over to itunes I play the file. At this point problems arise. It doesnt show up int eh library. I was ablet o put all my videos under the VIDEOS section of iTunes but they can only be played on my comp they are not transfered to my ipod. After playing all files that were converted to the itunes format. only one file for some reason was able to transfer to my library and get to my ipod. I dont have a clue why that one worked and the others where all came from teh same place and i did the same thing have not worked. Also, the one file that worked has no sound. This is what weeks of work, hours ont eh phone with Apple associates has gotten me to. I beg anyone who knows how to fix this to help me and I will wish only the best things to happen to you. Thanks.

I know what you mean. Having an issue and not knowing where to begin to solve it, or knowing what the problem is just unable to remedy that problem *****!.
Be advised that all mpeg or mpg files are not created equal.
The files you are having issue with are most likey muxed files or files that have two seperate parts or tracks. To export you must have rights to both parts completely. Your Sofware, in this case Quicktime, is unable to export the Audio portion of your file.
Many files downloaded or streamed and copied to your hardrive over the web using thirdparty apps as LimeWire and others. Not always are you getting what you need in the format you need it in.
Wait out or get the file from someone or somewhere else.
This is NOT a quicktime issue and if so either quicktime will update at some point. Or the file's may not be relinked together if prepared incorrectly.
I have seen this issue but did not have time to mess with as the files were not important enough to require the attention and time.
Just my professional view once agaiin. But i will investigate soon and may reply with the answer you need.
Peace

HELP IPOD CHARGE PROB!!

Here is what happens: I plug in my ipod the the usb and it says charging on both the ipod and the itunes folder...and when i come back, say 6 hours later, plenty of time for it to fully charge, I disconect the ipod and the battery is still just as low as whenever i put it in!! what is the problem!?!?

Fill out the form on...
http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
...and you'll be sent a box to ship your iPod to Apple in. You have to pay shipping to send the iPod to Apple, but they pay shipping to send a new one back to you (and yes, if there is something wrong, they will just send you a new one, so back everything up).

Ipod touch prob w/ mail icon

my mail icon on ipod touch used to go directly to my mail. Now it leads to an error message: [ "cannot get mail." user name/password for Verizon is incorrect.]
But if I go in through Safari & Verizon site, etc. I can eventually access email. Is there a way to fix this?

Go to Settings>Mail>Verizon account and delete and reenter the password.
Next look for other errors in the settings.
Last, delete the account from the iPod and reenter the settings.

IPod software probs transferring to iBook

I am trying to make my iPod talk to my iBook having previously been using my iPod with Windows. At first the iBook wouldn't recognise the iPod so I restored the iPod (presume it was because the iPod was previously set up for windows) The iBook now recognises the iPod and says it needs a software update (it is on 1.3 and I am trying to install 1.4.1 on it) I keep installing, but its not working and I keep going in a loop constantly being told to update software and it won't, loads but then says still needs updating. If I say no to update software the iBook starts to update the iPod then says that "it cannot read or write the hard disk" The iPod is showing the folder & exclamation mark. We have reset the iPod. The iPod is now stuck in Disk Mode and I can't switch it off. I have the iPod orignial cd but (sorry to be thick) but I don't know what program to use to open the install iPod icon. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

MSI 648 Max and ipods? Prob's connecting.

Please can anyone help?
I have a MSI 648 Max board with on-board usb2 and have problems connecting to my 4G 20Gb iPod. I'm pretty sure it’s the USB connection that is the problem. Has anyone else had this? Can anyone suggest anything to help? This is my last port of call before I’ll have to folk out for a Firewire card which I really don’t want to do.
Thanks.

Thanks for replying .
I have used USB for a number of devices (Printed/Mouse/DigiCam) and have never had any noticeable problems. I’ve tried the disconnecting thing and it didn’t seem to have any effect.
I thought it might be something to do with iPod’s not liking on-board USB and decided to post a topic here to see if anyone else has had a similar problem. Doesn’t seem to be much talk of iPod’s though. I wondered if MSI knew of any problems.
I have been around a few iPod forums but not many people seem to be using on-board USB.
Keep the suggestions coming though. Thanks.

Probs putting personalized video onto iPOD.

Hi All,
I have a 30gb Video iPOD. The iPOD has a 320X20 screen..okay so far.
I have lots of home movies on my hard drive, and want to put some on my iPOD. Utilizing Final Cut Pro, I have only been sucessful with the pull-down choice of "iPOD 320X240". This format works, and plays on my iPOd no prob.
The tech specs say (pasted below):
"H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats"
and
"MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats".
How do I get the 'mpeg 4 video @ 480x480' ointo a format that iPOD will accept?
Thanks!

Why does my ipod need to have the newest os to allow games that won't go on it now but where on it before?

I have an Ipod touch (prob 1st or 2nd gen) that used to have a bunch of free games on for my kids and I upgraded to the newest os (so I could use Netflix) and when I did, the games had to be reinstalled. But when I go to install previously enjoyed (and previously working) games... they won't because the device says I need os 4.3 for the game. This seems like a scam to me!!!!
How do I get the old games back? and why isn't there compatibility with games I know worked on the ipod before?
Aaron (livin' in the free world costs I guess)

Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

IPod Movies

I converted about ten movies and downloaded them to my iPod, no prob. Now I want them off my iBookG4. I tried changing the update videos automatically option to not update and that took every movie off my iPod before I could even eject it. I noticed you can't change this option unless the iPod is plugged in which makes this even more confusing. I need to free up this space off iBook but I would like to keep the movies on my iPod. Any suggestions? I'm also curious if you can use an iPod to back up .txt or .html files? I need something to back up my school work and I have plenty of free space available on that. I also have iPod shuffle if that woks. Any feed back is much appreciated

You would need to Manually Manage Songs and Playlists for you to have the files on your iPod but not on your computer. See this tutorial Video http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/tutorial/ipgettingstartedt3.html
And as for backing up .txt or .html files you can but you would need to enable your iPod for Disk Use. To do so also see this other tutorial video http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/tutorial/ipgettingstartedt13.html

I cant transfer my songs from computer to ipod

hi i just got an ipod video for x mas and i have all my songs on my itunes on my computer. i go to file( to transfer the songs to my ipod) and the update my ipod icon is not avaible. also when i first click on itunes, it say itunes cannot read the contents of the Ipod "IPOD" use the ipod software updater application to restore ipod to factory settings. i dont know what to do to fix this. also (this may be important) but i have 2 brothers who both got the same ipod i got for x mas. my one brother got his songs on his ipod no prob. i however had to create a new account on the computer to install my cd and i still cant get my songs onto my ipod.... by the way we all are using the same computer for all of our ipods, but that shouldnt be a problem.

Hello Matt,
It sounds like you are trying to transfer music from your iPod to your computer. I found an article with information on transferring media from your iPod to your computer:
iTunes: Transferring media from your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or iPod
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1209
You can also use steps from the following article to download your past iTunes purchases directly from the iTunes Store on the computer:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Uploading non-iTunes videos to iPod

Hey all
ok so i've been uploading no itunes videos to my ipod no prob but when i go to GET INFO> OPTIONS> Video Kind of a paticular video and i set it to TV SHOW, when i upload to iPod i cant find it, but i change it MOVIE i can see and play the video. I just want to put my tv shows in the TV SHOWS subfolder on the ipod, anyone have any ideas how to make this work.
ie, Scrubs episode 504 want to put it under TV Shows option on ipod but wont go there have to keep video kind as MOVIE.
Thanks guys!!

Hey guys,
Stayed up most of the night figuring this one out...!
The new iTunes has added a bunch of tags to the new video mp4s. One of those tags designates the TV Show that the video pertains to. This is different from and in addition to the 'Artist' and 'Album' tags.
You can view this tag by arranging your video files in List format in iTunes and selecting 'TV Shows' at the top of the screen.
The stupid thing is, iTunes doesn't let you change these tags. Hopefully, the next version will fix that...
So, you'll have to download a program that lets you edit these tags. I used a program called AtomicParsley (for Windows XP). I think you can find it at http://atomicparsley.sourceforge.net. There are some others for OSX, I think. Do a good enough internet search and you'll find one.
AtomicParsley edits the tags by creating a whole new file (which can take a while depending on the size of the file), then overwriting the old one. iTunes takes a minute to recognise the changes. You can clue it in by right-clicking on the file.
You'll actually be able to edit tags for season and episode numbers, and those will carry through to the iPod when you update it.
Anyway, good luck.

How do I get my airport extreme to stop recycling? Using OSX 10.7.4, Airport Utility 6.1

How do I get my Airport Extreme to stop recycling? I'm using OSX 10.7.4 and Airport Utility 6.1.

The Airport Extreme is putting out the signal OK. Gan use my iPod no prob. The Mac goes from 'On' to 'looking for networks' back and forth all the time.
As Apple has said the AirPort Extreme is functioning correctly if other devices can connect. You have a Mac issue, so that is really a question for the support area for your Mac.
I suggest that you try one of these general areas, then pick out the specific model that you have:

Two iPhones, One MBP - Best way to share?

So, my husband just got an iPhone. I will get one soon, but not for a few months. I have a MBP, where the iTunes library lives. When he got an iPod we simply sync'd it with my library... multiple iPods, no prob.
Well, now with the iPhone, he will want to sync Cal, Address Books, iTunes, etc. Should we set up a separate account on the MBP? If we do, he cannot access my iTunes library. Or should we add it to my iTunes, just like the iPods. If we register his iPhone in my iTunes account, can I add another iPhone later, will he still get his own bill? Will my iTunes purchases still be billed to my account?
In short - what is the best way to share a iTunes library with multiple users?
