Is there a way to make a "music" playlist that contains videos? for iCruze

Hello,
I just purchase a 5th generation iPOD video to replace an old 15GB iPOD in my wife's car. The old iPOD has worked wonderfully in my wife's car, playing audio (MP3s) with an iCruze interface to the factory stereo.
In case you haven't heard of iCruze, essentially it has a little box that interfaces to the factory stereo just like a CD changer. I can load up to 10 playlists in my iPOD (labeled 1 - 10), and then I can select them, FF, REW, etc using the factory stereo. There is also a seperate LCD module that plugs into the iCruze that shows the artist and song name from the iPOD.
Although the iCruze is a little quirky, it does a pretty good job by allowing us to select songs I want to use via the factory stereo.
So, I got a great idea. I figured I would create a new playlist with videos, and plug the video cable into the DVD player, and be able to watch DVDs from the iPOD. No more scratched DVDs, no more losing disks, etc.
Anyway, it appears the video playlists don't work with the iCruze. I created 1 playlist with just videos, but the iCruze can't see it. It can see the other 8 that just have music and play them just fine. If I manually select the movie on the iPOD, the video displays on the DVD screen, too, so I am almost there, I think...
So, does anyone know of a way to "trick" my iPOD into making a music playlist that contains videos? I tried renaming an MP4 video to MP3, but iTunes said it couldn't play the file.
Any suggestions would be welcome...

Playlists are shown under Music > Playlists or within the sidebar. Click once on a playlist name to select it and click again to start editing the text of the name, the text will become higlighted with the cursor flashing at the right hand end. It's not part of the edit playlist rules dialog, or a menu option.

  • Is there a way to make the music that plays on my iPhone 5 sound like it does on iTunes?

    I notices that the music that is played on iTunes sounds a lot clearer than it does when I listen to my music on my iPhone. Is there any way to make the music on my iPhone sound more clear?

    Have you not got a backup of your content on, for example, external drives or CDs/DVDs ? If not then you could see if any of the utilities mentioned in this old post still work : https://discussions.apple.com/message/11014893?messageID=11014893#11014893 .
    In terms of photos, then for those taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then see this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer (which has a free lite version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to a device, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • Is there a way to make a smart "playlist" of specific books in my iTunes library, and copy ONLY THOSE books to an iOS device? I own an iPad and an iPhone but I want different books on different devices.

    Is there a way to make a smart "playlist" of specific books in my iTunes library, and copy ONLY THOSE books to an iOS device? I own an iPad and an iPhone but I want different books on each different device. When I've tried this, the iOS devices don't seem to respond.

    There is no playlist for iBooks, butther eis nothing to preent you from choosing to download specific titles from itunes, or syncing just specific titles to an individual device.

  • TS2951 Is there a way to make a dvd Boot Start Up Copy for Lion 7.4.1 ? on a MAC PRO 2011

    Hello,
    Is there a way to make a dvd Boot Start Up Copy for Lion 7.4.1 ? on a MAC PRO 2011 ? I only have the Newest
    Lion Thumb Drive 7.0 and will not allow me to ever Reinstall my MAC.  Which I like to do from time to time....
    Is the Thumb Drive Suppose to reinstall the entire computer or just upgrade ?  Apple Store does not know what
    level each customer is at so the Thumb Drives must Totally Start from Scratch.
      It worked Once in Nov a Month after I Bought the MAC PRO in 2011 by customer care telling me to Hold down the Option Key When I Turn on the MAC ?  I hope That is Correct.
    SO WHAT I AM REALLY WANTING TO KNOW ABOUT MACS IS CAN YOU MAKE A BOOT DVD and NOT with Time Machine or an External Hard Drive.

  • Is there a way to make digital photos look less like video in FCP?

    I know this is probably a question better suited to the Adobe Photoshop forums, but does anyone know a way to make digital photos look more like film than video in FCP? I know about watching for hotspots and such, but is there anything else I can do?
    Thanks in advance,

    All links in the chain peddle the bicycle: in this case, I would guess your photography may suffer a bit if your colors are blown out. In assuming you have a chance to rephotograph, establish in your menu that your color temperature matches your lighting. Try K6300 for strobe, K6100 for strobe umbrella, K3100 up or down a few for tungsten: make sure your lights are at 45 degree from your photos, reflection of the camera. Your best bet is to WBalance them, and at all the same exposure, as Automatic tends to give you the neutral color and neutral value. Don't trust automatic unless you're in a pinch. You can also set in your menu a "less vivid" level, but I wouldn't trust this either.
    Good luck.

  • Is there a way to make a second passcode that only allows access to making calls?

    I would like to be able to have my regular passcode for full access to everything on my phone but have a second passcode I can enter for when someone asks to borrow my phone to make a call, and this would only give them access to making a call but no access to my calendar, emails, photos, apps, etc.
    Does anyone know if this is possible to do through settings or even if there is an app for this?
    Thanks

    No, this isn't possible and there isn't an app that would be able to do this.

    There are several VNC clients available for the iPad in the iTunes App Store.
    Make your choice and install to the iPad. I chose Remoter VNC.
    Now, the steps:
    System Preferences > Sharing > Screen Sharing.
    In Computer Settings, check VNC viewers may control screen ... and OK.
    Set a password that the iPad VNC app will request.
    You are alerted that Screen Sharing: is blocked by Firewall.Switch to Security & Privacy preference
    Click and unlock with your login password
    Leave Firewall running
    Choose Firewall options
    Deselect Block all incoming connections if it is checked
    You may now see an entry for Screen Sharing and Allow incoming connections
    Do not recheck Block all incoming connections
    Click OK
    Click to lock the firewall
    On your iPad, launch the VNC application.
    In the VNC app, set the name for the VNC client.
    Configure your user id and password (from above).
    Configure other VNC app preferences including port 5900.
    Launch your iPad VNC client and click to login.
    Your OS X ML desktop and open windows will appear on the iPad.
    And here is this current entry in the Apple Support Community in a VNC session on my iPad. It has been trimmed down to fit the paste here.

  • Is there a way to make a smart playlist to display albums with NO cover art

    I want to see which of my songs do not yet have album art, in an easy manner ... Thanks!!

    You can download and run this VBScript (or copy and paste from below). It will create a playlist called "No Artwork" containing all the tracks with no artwork.
    The forum TOS requires me to say: "I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link" because I have a paypal donation link on my webpage, but the program is free (donation totally optional)

  • Is there a way I can create a folder that contains images from many different catalogs?

    Id like to be able to put all of my select images in one folder so I can easily find images to develope at any given time.

    Do you have 1000s of photos per day every day, so millions of images in total?
    I have 1.5 years of shooting in 1 catalog, as many images as fit on my external drive, about 50,000, and all are divided into separate folders by day and subject, having folder names with date_event/subject/location format, sometimes several per day,  i.e.  2013-07-04_Fireworks, 2013-12-25_ChristmasMorning.  This allows me to find a subject or event quickly using merely a file-system search operation without having to open my catalog.    Because I automatically save XMP files for each image, I can even open a folder in Bridge and see my edits for just that folder without going into LR.
    When my hard-drive fills up, I Export-as-Catalog a month or a quarter’s worth of images in their own catalog and remove them out of the current catalog, and moving those images and their corresponding catalog to a pair of archival hard-drives.  I also keep a separate catalog for important events—I mostly do just personal photohobbyist shooting, but occasionally something else.
    If you currently have your daily images separated by folder, already, then create a new, empty catalog and import the daily catalogs into it, perhaps renaming the folders from within LR, as you go, so they contain the date and subject of the images, if that daily categorization is important to you.   Having them split by days at the folder level is fine, but having catalogs also split by days seems like organizing a 600 page book into 600 2-page books, one page of text and one page of index entries.
    You can do just a few to start with, and work backwards in time, as you have time. 
    I should say that when I first started shooting with a digital camera, I categorized things by subject: dogs, children, whatever-park, downtown, nightlife, astronomy, etc, maybe a dozen categories, and just dumped all the pictures into those folders.  Eventually I started to take too many pictures and there were too many in each folder, so I started categorizing by date and subject, which helped immensely.  This was before LR existed, but once it did, I just imported everything into a catalog, using drag-and-drop and had everything in once place but still separated by folders.

  • Is there a way to create a smart playlist that lists my top 25 plays from a specific time period (i.e. - top plays from the last 90 days)?

    Is it possible to create an itunes smart playlist that lists my top 25 most played songs in a specific time period (i.e. - the last 90 days)?  It seems that any "most played" list I create counts every spin a track has had in it's history of being in my library. 

    The challenge is is not to determine which of the tracks that have been played in the last X days has been played most since the beginning of time, but which have been played most in the last X days. iTunes can do the first one but it simply doesn't have the power to do the second.

  • Is there a way to make movies playlists in itunes 10?

    I would like to be able to make a playlist consisting of movies without having to change info to make them into music videos. If there were a sperarte music video category in the itunes library section, that sure would be neat. But instead there is a music video playlist where the music videos will be, but they also show up in the Music library which I do not like or want. So is there a way to make a movies playlist w/o them ending up clogging the Music section of my itunes library?

    You can make a playlist that contains any combination of audio and video from the Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books (Audiobooks) and Podcasts sources. If you really object to the music videos appearing in Music, either make them Movies, or perhaps better yet, TV Shows and give them a common Show name to group them together.

  • Is there a way to make Apple TV move to the next video in a Vimeo playlist automatically?

    Is there any way to make Apple TV play multiple Vimeo videos automatically, one after the next?
    For any of you who have used a Google TV device, you know that this is the default behavior for internet videos (Vimeo included, obviously) there. It's the only thing that I miss after boxing that thing up to use my Apple TV full-time.
    If there's not a way to do this, is there any hope of suggesting this behavior (and if so, who would I suggest that behavior to, Vimeo or Apple?)?
    Thanks in advance.
