IPod VIDEO?  Where's the video?  Pls help..

SO here's the deal. I have TONS of movies and videos and I have yet to get 1 single thing to work on the iPod. They are MPEG4's or .mp4 and I have tried various other formats with no luck. I am unable to even get the movies to load into the movies section of itunes, so I can never sync them. I tried the whole senario on my PC and I was able to get the movies into the library, but would still not load onto the ipod. Any help or suggestions would be helpful at this point. Thanks!

    It could be an indication or a damaged or dying hard drive.  I would recommend doing a disk diagnostic on the iPod's HD using the instructions given by turingtest2 in this older thread.  He also covers what the resulting numbers indicate.

    Hi there , I'm downloading game from Mac App store ( The Witcher 2) and it's stuck on waiting almost at the end of the download pls help? I don't want to download it again is there any solution for this?

    Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
    Step 2
    Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.

  • Converting TV shows for iPod Video - Please help!

    I have been trying all week to get one single tv show on my iPod, but I have had no success. I have been using Quicktime Pro with the iPod video export settings which takes forever, but every time the video is finished, it plays in iTunes with no sound. I have called tech support several times and they offered advice like, "Try using Divx to convert it into a .mov," but it never works. The types of files I am trying to convert are mpeg1 & 2, and .avi (downloaded files from p2p) but like I said, no success. If anyone can offer some straightforward advice about other programs to use, or what I may be doing wrong, it would be extremely helpful. I am using a brand new iBook G4. I understand you can use Handbrake to convert DVD's, but most of my files are tv shows, and would like to have some Simpsons or Family Guy in my iPod. Currently, I am waiting for Quicktime to convert three more mpeg files into the iPod format, and if it doesn't work, I will stop trying completely and stick to only movies, I guess. Oh, by the way, I have tried using iMovie to import files and it also experiences the same issues as Quicktime after it is added - no sound! Thanks again guys, I really appreciate your responses.

    QuickTime Pro will not transcode any form of muxed MPEG file correctly on its own.
    Forty-TwoDVD-VXPlus ($14.99) will convert MPEG1 but not sure about MPEG2 and M2/AC3 VOBs.
    MPEG2QT ($15) and MPEG2 Works 4 ($25) will convert MPEG1/2 and M2/AC3 VOBs. With regard to AVI files there are more than one type. If QT Pro won't handle them then you need to check DivX and/or 3ivX modules. However, as far as I know, DivX are still trying get their QT 7 component to work with DivX v5.x and the v6 has yet to be released.
    Tried PSPWare v2.1.4 in free, unregistered mode and it converted MPEG1 files without a problem. But all of my other, more common test file types failed to convert.
    Also tried MPEG StreamClip (free) which some users claimed worked fine. It kept cutting off the audio before reaching the end of the video in the target files (w/MPEG4 settings).

  • IPod video/audio help

    I would like to know why my iPod video doesn't have any audio when I play videos. I use the itunes converter to transfer the video but the audio just doesnt work. Can someone help me please and let me know how do deal with the problem?

    The language and subtiles have to be changed to match the video you are downloading. I use IVideoToGo and it has that option under properties. You have to change the language to "English" and the Subtitles to "English" or whatever language is indicated on the case of the movie. You have to do it for each movie manually because it is defaulted to "none".

  • Music fails to copy to iPod Video - Urgent help needed!

    Recently i done a stupid thing with my iPod, i done a defrag on it using windows utility. Though i have done it before, no problems. I have though just been told that its a bad thing to do.
    After that, itunes did not recognise my ipod (iPod Video), i then restored it using V1.11 firmware, then went onto iTunes to upload all my music, it goes so far (say the first 300 out of 4550 or a number below 300) then stays on random track, then the iPod disconnects. Since then i have used previous versions of the firmware (1.0, 1.1), still does the same thing.
    Can anyone help, cause i now live in spain (europe), since moved from scotland. It would be a pain to send it back if its not bust.
    Oh yea, my music is all stored on a external western digital HD, connection is a 2.0 USB. Had it for 6 months or so and had no problems with it so far.

    Generation 1 vs generation 2 has zero impact on using Enhanced Session Mode to copy files in and out.
    Under the hood, Enhanced Session Mode uses RDP.  So, the RDP stars must align for the file copy to work.  This can be impacted by group policy, improper RDP settings, the VM not being Windows 8.1 or Server 2012 R2 or higher.

    Learn. Apply. Repeat.
    no settings in group policy. 
    all other things were identical.
    i removed that VM & created new one, since there was no solution to that. maybe a bug.
    thank you anyway

  • IPod video 80gb help??

    I just got a new iPod video 80gb for Christmas.
    But when i plug it into my PC, it won't start syncing.
    All i get i message from iTunes saying something like: The software required for communication with the iPod-unit is not properly installed. Install iTunes again to install the iPod-software. (Bad translation from norwegiean to english, but it's something like that).
    And well, i have installed iTunes again (two times) but the same error just keeps showing up.
    I've tried to use a different cable, different USB port, and so on, but nothing works.
    I do got a iPod mini 4gb that was syncing just great with iTunes, but when i got my new one, after installing iTunes again, even my iPod mini won't sync.
    So do anyone know what i should do? That message is all i get, and I've heard with other that it is supposed to come up some questions and stuff the first time you plug the iPod in, but I haven't even seen that.
    So if anyone got some suggestions for what to do. I will be grateful.
    Sorry my bad english btw:p

    Check out these two documents which address the issue.
    "Please Reinstall iTunes" message appears.
    Fast User Switching.

  • IPad mini 3 mic is quiet and where is the mic, please help....???

    hello guys i bought my iPad mini 3 today. I'm trying to guess even where the mic is, I'm guessing its at the top on the back well it looks like a mic. but anyway i recently done a video of myself to test the mic on the iPad. and it seems quiet. don't know if I'm doing something wrong. i am currently installing IOS 8.1.2 now. can someone tell me if the mic is faulty, or if I'm doing something wrong. the volume is on full. please help........

    Hi Townsend1990,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your new iPad. If you are looking for more information on the locations of the dual mics on the iPad Mini 3, you may find the following page helpful. If you are having mic issues, especially if you have your iPad in a case, you may want to make sure that the mics aren't obstructed.

  • Syncing 5th generation ipod but where are the movies?

    After syncing my 5th generation ipod video to get recently bought movies, I can't seem to see the movies, TV shows or music videos when I disconnect the ipod from the computer. Is there a setting or something I'm suppose to do or am I missing something?
      Windows XP  

    Hi There,
    I think it could be one of 2 things. In itunes (7.1.1) when you plug in your ipod and the summary screen for the ipod appears got to the movies tab and make sure the 'sync movies' box is ticked also below this it should say 'all movies'. Do the same for TV Shows tab. This should help http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304708
    Or on your ipod go to settings>mainmenu>and make sure movies or tv shows are set to 'on' they will then show in the main screen of your ipod.
    Jeff could be right, but I thought the music was still syncing ok.

  • Mac is enabling selective file opening after filter transfer on windows. Now it shows the newly transfered file however it cant be opened on the mac, pls help

    recently i bought a new WD 1tb hard drive to help me store more files from my mac. However as i need some files to be transfered from my old drive to my new one and since it will take ages as i have 120gb worth of pictures hence i let my laptop (pc) do the work while i used my mac to work. After completion, i realise when i connect to my new hard drive with the old files transfered in it. I can see all the files new ones which i transfer from my mac and old files from one old hard drive to the new one via the pc. The new files can be open and view with no dramas, sadly i cant say the same with the old files. I can see the folder but i cant open the folders let alone open the files. On the pc however no such drama, pls help.

    If I understand correctly you used your PC to copy files to an external HDD while you worked on your Mac, now when accessing your external HDD, you cannot access those files. Is this correct?
    If yes, the problem likely lies in how your HDD was formatted. Mac and Windows use different systems. If your HDD is NTFS or FAT, you should be able to read it with Mac, but you won;t be able to write to NTFS.
    A better way to transfer files to that external for use with your Mac is to format the drive using your Mac, connect both computers to your network and share the folder you need to copy files from on your PC. Connect to the folder in Finder on your Mac and copy them over to the external.

  • Ipod nano locked in the Pause position HELP!!!!!

    Ipod was working fine lastnight. Turned it on this morning and the Cover Flow hesitates to work when turned sideways. Now it won't even show the covers and all the sudden the ipod locked itself in the pause position!
    Can ANYONE help me with this? I just got this and now I can't even use it!

    I had to reset the settings by holding down the menu and center keys for a few seconds until the iPod screen shows up. After that showed up it seems to be working fine now.

  • Ipod video volume help!

    when I convert videos the volume stops working
    is it because these arnt bought from itunes store?
    help!
    xxx

    No, it's probably because they are "muxed".
    Quicktime or Quicktime Pro (which iTunes uses) don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).
