Ipod use with audio/video system in car

I have an Ipod Touch and the "traveler" cabing for use in my car. The traveler transmitter requires me to squeeze it and select the particular FM setting (which is supposed to have the least amount of static or is not an existing station in use). As we travel, static or new stations enter that FM setting, causing the traveler transmitter, since it is low power, to lose the Ipod connection. I have to try multiple times to get a setting and change the radio to that setting. Q. Can I buy a cable (with mini-jack on one end and RCA jacks on the other end and connect the Ipot directly to the RCA input jacks on the car's CD faceplate and use the AUX setting for the car system? The car has both a 6 CD changer and video system.

Yes you can. It is the best way to do it without having all the same problems everybody else on this forum is having trying to use the docking jack.

How do I connect an iPhone 5S or 6 with audio video cables?

How do I connect an iPhone 5S or 6 with audio video cables? Our van only has these connections. Apple did have a cable that worked with the 4/4S, but it does not work with an adapter on the 5S. I want audio only.

I Thought I probably was.
something like this should work then, right?

My 60GB Ipod used to play videos but no it doesn't??? help!!!!!

Hi, there
my ipod used to play videos, i then didnt play one for a while and it now doesnt play them anymore..... it doesnt seem to update them onto my ipod....thanks

ok now are the videos that are not updating to the ipod the same videos that used to update to it? Or is it new content you have imported to itunes since you last updated the ipod with videos? Also, are these videos itunes purchased or user created content?
See these articles for information on file formats that will play in itunes and import to the ipod (note: itunes plays more file types than the ipod will load, so just because a video will play in itunes does not mean the file type will update to ipod)

Now once you have made sure that your videos are in the correct format and have been converted to play on the ipod, make sure that your ipod preferences are set to automatically update the videos. Or you can try manual mode and drag and drop em onto the ipod.

How can i stream my powerpoint presentation with audio video content to the display devices

i wanted to stream my Power point presentation with audio/video content inserted in between the slides how can i achieve this requirements
is there any harware or software available for this
Please let me know
Thanks

This is not a straightforward procedure. I normally take the exported PPt file onto a windows machine and import the video files into PPt before sending to a client
Once the folder is copied to windows, the video files have to be imported again manually to relink the files as they loose the link in the export
Check that the video files are copied into the same folder as the Powerpoint file
The only file types playable from Powerpoint in widows are: mpeg wmv avi
Use wmv for best quality and compatibility

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

There is a hum when I hook up my IPod touch with the stereo system. If I do not use the docking station there is no hum. Is there a solution other than buying a new docking station. The on I own is 5 years old and is an apple product.

I have an Ipod touch with a genuine Apple docking station. Lately when I connect my system to my home stereo, there is a hum that I never noticed before. When I connect the system directly to my stereo, there is no hum. Is there a solution, other than buying a new docking station?

This makes sense to me. I think the issue is your misunderstanding. If you purchased an item, your Apple ID becomes tied to that permanently. So when you try to update that app, you need the password to the ID that 'OWNS' that application.
Also, I suspect you have a different ID signed into the device, which is why you can't buy with your own. That article listed shows how to change the signed in account.

Ipod connected with VW part to my car: right speakers crackles with music

It only crackles/buzzes with music and not in silent gaps and only my right speakers. I have checked and my my PC files play without any noise. My ipod plays fine with headphones and via hifi connect. My ipod connects at the base with the VW radio/cd player. My VW radio /CD plays correctly with radio and with CD so i presume its not my right speaker. All music is from CD sources and none from any downloads. NOte also it is the same whether the car is running or not. SO does anyone know why the right channel/right speaker has a crackle/buzzing when i listen to my ipod in my car. VW have not come with anything. I am new to the ipod. Any one have any ideas please?

Do you get normal stereo sound from your Nano when using headphones? If so then the problem is not with the iPod but with the car's sound system, or more likely the cable connecting the two.

No auto answer when used with Hands Free system in Toyoya RAV 4

I can make outgoing calls using the hands free system in my Toyota RAV 4 but must manually answer all incoming calls. Is there any way to have the phone pick-up after a set number of rings..I did not have this problem with my Palm Treo 650.

I just got back from my dealer...bottom line, update works. It was a $99 charge, they ran into some issues, it was their first try at it. I brought a 2 GB usb stick with me, one I had lyling around, formated it, and let them use it. They said they could not give it back, since it would have their data on it...no big deal. Turns out, there was an issue with the USB stick I gave them, they had to go out and purchase on (not sure why they didn't have one on hand alread). I have about 8900 songs on my iPod, a few playlists. It took about 20 minutes or so to finish the loading, then when you try to use some voice commands, says you cannot do it while it's compiling songs or something to that effect. A few minuts, later, the voice commands worked. Only issue I see is that everytime I turn off the car, and get back in, it goes through the process of the load again. the 2nd time was a little quicker, but still took about 5-10 minutes, and again, had the delay of not being able to use the voice. Good luck everyone!!!

Use of Audio & Video in Encore Menus (CS4)

Hello,
I'm using Encore CS4 on Windows 7. I've searched for some tutorials or other posts on the topic, which were helpful, but incomplete.
I want to add a video preview with audio on the main menu of a standard DVD (not blu-ray). However, I want to have the video preview placed in the lower left quadranth of the menu (with the navigation button flanking it on the right lower quadranth and titles centered on the upper half). What would be the best way to achieve that?
A couple ways I tried to do this:
1) I tried to use use of the video buttons that come with Encore's library, but I found it was too cumbersome trying to remove the text and borders that came with the video buttons in Photoshop. It didn't have the look I aiming for. Essentially, all I really wanted was a simple rectangular box to house the preview video. So, I made a rectangular box in Photoshop as a layer and saved the menu in Encore. I added to the video to the rectangular box in Encore and selected the animate buttons as required. There was no audio, so I linked the audio from the file in the properties box of the motion menu. Unfortunately, once I rendered the motion menu, the audio was out of sync when I previewed it, and I didn't know how to remedy that.
2) Another approach I tried was to simply lasso the audio and video clips in the Properties section of the motion menu with the video file I had (mpeg), The audio was synced, but the video filled the entire background of the menu with the titles and buttons over the video. Is there anyway to restrict this video to a certain section of the menu or will Encore only allow it to take up the entire background?
Also, with both approches, I noticed when I previewed the menu (after rendering, of course), every time I scrolled across one of the navigation buttons, the preview video would restart versus just playing uninterupted. Is there anyway to set this up without having the video restart like that? [One thought: does this happen only because I am previewing the video and wouldn't happen once the project is built?]
I'm not very savvy with After Effects, but would using that help me achieve what I'm aiming for? Anyway, I appreicate any thoughts or insight on how I should approach this. Thanks in advance for your time! I really appreicate it!
Mick

As long as you have only one video you want to play in the window, you should have no problem.
Preview may not display correctly.
The easiest way to do what you want can be done in Premiere just as well as After Effects. All you are creating is the background video and audio. Any titles, buttons, and highlights can be done in Encore or Photoshop. I prefer PS.
In PR, bring in the menu background you want to see behind the background video. Add your movie over this. Use motion settings to resize and put the video where you want it. If you want to frame it, add a title with a graphic on the next track up.
Export this as a demuxed mpeg (m2v and ac3 or wav).
Import to EN and add a background video and audio.

IPop Use with different operating systems Windows And Mac Osx

so the quetion is this can i use my IPod with different Operatin systems?
I have a MacBook at home where i keep all my Music in and at the office i have a Windows network i would like to carry some music from home to the office using my IPod. I thought that a solution is to Partition my Ipod 40G in 2 parts and have one of them FAT so that my Windows operating system can view it.
Did any of you done it? and if so How? did you loose the use of some of the IPod functions?
let me Know if there are ways to carry music using your Ipod from the MacOSX to Windows Prof or home edition thanks!

Your problem has nothing to do with data vs music. Music IS data. I've used my iPod for data and music since the first iPod was released. There's no reason to think the two OS versions are involved either.
Look at your usage practices - and I'm not necessarily suggesting you are abusing your computer. Has one of your computers crashed while the iPod was connected? This could cause data damage that might explain the problem. Have you ever disconnected the iPod without un-mounting it first?
You might also be creating fragmentation problems if you frequently add and remove data files while at the same time adding and removing music. One decision I made when I was using my iPod to transport lots of movies and photos for a project was to NOT make any music changes during that busy two week period.

Lenovo A536 problem with audio video playback.

I've bought lenovo a536 smartphone 3days ago and I couldn't listen to music continuesly.
The audio or video player is stop playing or pausing unexpectedly. It is only giving problem while using headset.
Try to fix this critical bug.
It just ruined the reputation of lenovo.
Such a worst design ever with lots of bugs.

I have more informations..
First a iWire cable is a simple display port to Hdmi 1.4 cable (you can buy it from applestore and it support audio + video).
SO, I installed windows 7 on bootcamp, and when I plug the iWire cable on my macbook pro while the home theater + videoprojector are ON, windows crash and restart...
If I plug the iWire cable on the macbook but if only the home theater is ON and the videoprojector is OFF, then it works... The hometheater is recognized as a TV...
What I don't understand is that my apple TV don't have problem with this config, nether my westerdigital tv.. It's only with a macbook.. display port should not be exactly same thing as a hdmi output maybe.. :/
I think I will have to buy a longer hdmi cable to plug it on the vp, and a optical cable for the audo to my ht :/

Can an iPod used with a Mac be charged on a pc?

I know that if you setup your iPod to be used with a Mac it can not be used on a pc. But, if I plug that iPod into a pc's usb port will it charge the iPod?
The main reason I'm asking is that I use a Mac at home and that is where I have all my iPod related media. At work I use a Dell laptop. I don't care about having the media on my work laptop. So, I am wondering if I can charge the iPod on the pc when I travel?
I know I can buy an ac charger but why spend money if I don't have to!

Thanks for the info. I was going to post this evening that I took my usb cable to the office and plugged it in. Since I don't have iTunes on the work pc it shows up as an external usb drive. Attempting to open the drive results in a dialog box that says the drive is not formatted. Looking at the iPod shows the battery charging.

Help with Audio/Video Sync Problem

I have a couple of video Podcasts that I watch on my iPod (5.5G) and they work just fine on the iPod. However, when I watch them on my Vista machine the audio is not synchronized with the video. My machine is up-to-date when it comes to drivers and I'm not running any significant background processes.
I am running iTunes 7.6 on my Windows Vista notebook computer. I have noticed this problem for the last few versions of iTunes and I don't know if this happened with version 6.x of iTunes.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
Mike
