  • ITunes error message - "video format is not supported by the iPad" My video is mp4, mpeg-4.

    When syncing my iPad 2....  Why do I get this iTunes error message? "video format is not supported by the iPad"
    My video is mp4, another is mpeg-4.
    I thought the iPad 2 could play almost any format.

    Must conform to these specs:
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Or download an alternate video player,such as avplayerhd.

  • I upgraded my iphone 5 to iOS 8 and now i get an itunes error message when I try to sync "this iphone cannot be synced. Unknown error.

    I upgraded my iphone 5 to iOS 8 and now i get an itunes error message when I try to sync "this iphone cannot be synced. Unknown error. (-50). my icloud drive was stuck in an upgrade cycle, but i've stopped that and still get the error message.

    I restarted itunes and tried again (based on a similar question/solution from 2012).
    I don't get the error message anymore, but it's really sort of odd that after step one of sync, it looks as if sync stopped, and then all of a sudden you see step 4 of sync.
    Also before the upgrade I had 7+ gigs of space free and after the upgrade I have 10 gigs free. seems like something is amiss, but it's not like I have anyway of determining that.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    iTunes Error Message 'The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. An unknown error occurred (-50).  How do I correct this error?

    I know this doesn't help you Bud, but I've had this issue for at least the last couple of versions.  If I can ask, what is you enviornment like?  Local PC only, libray saved on another PC/Server? 
    In my case my library is on Windows 2003 server with the share mapped to drive M:  This has worked for many years through both XP and Windows 7 until and update a while ago. 
    Thanks,

  • ITunes error message: "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You have exceeded your storage quota on the disk you are attempting to use." What do I do?

    I recently started receiving the following iTunes error message when I attempt to update the software on my iPad or iPhone: "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. You have exceeded your storage quota on the disk you are attempting to use."
    Any ideas what I need to do? The software won't update on my iPad, and I need to update through iTunes, as my iPad does not have enough free space to use the OTA service.

    You need to free up space on your boot drive.
    (I am going to ask the mods move this to the MacBook Pro forum.)

  • Itunes error message 2

    When opening itunes, error message 2 pops up, stating Apple Application support is required.  It tells me to uninstall and reinstall itunes.  Should I do this and will I loose my library?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Can't play any songs from iTunes, error message "can't find"

    I just got an iPod as a present (I'm behind the times) and I put songs on my iPod from some one elses computer. The problem is, now none of the songs on that persons computer will play, I get an error message saying, "the song [insert song name here] could not be used because the original file could not be found." My iTunes is fine, but my friends computer is not!!! Is there any way to fix this, I really hope i didn't just delete all their songs (I didn't even put most of them on my iPod).
    Thanks for any help!

    Your songs might be taking up too much room in your iPod.
    Open iTunes, right-click on a song. Make sure the song is no bigger than 4 MB and it's a MPEG file.
    Also, in iTunes, click "Edit" and then go down to "Preferences". Click the 'Advanced" tab and then the "Importing" tab. Make sure your songs are encoded using AAC Encoder and a high quality setting of 128 kpbs.
    If your song information is different from what I just told you then this is the reason why your songs won't fit in your iPod and there's not enough room.

  • Itunes error message - the itunes library.itl file cannot be found or created

    My itunes was working yesterday but today when i open it i get an error message saying "the itunes library.itl file cannot be found or created. the default location for this file in in the itunes folder in the music folder."
    I have tried to reinstall itunes but still getting the same error when clicking on itunes
    Please can you help?

    Hold down the Shift key while trying to launch iTunes. You should see a dialog box asking you to Choose or Create a library. Click "Choose library"
    Browse to the default location of your iTunes Library.itl file:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    Windows Vista: \Users\username\Music\iTunes\
    Windows 7: \Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
    ... and doubleclick the file.
    Does your iTunes open for you now?

  • Can't install itunes - error message  "the folder "itunes" cannot be found

    Help. I just bought a new Iphone and can't get itunes to load. I had itunes on my computer for several years for my nano - haven't synced up in about a year. Went to open it and got the following error message
    The folder "itunes" cannot be found or created and is required. The default location for this folder is inside Mu Music folder"
    I have uninstalled everything - quicktime, apple mobile, every single file. I have rebooted, run searches to make sure there were no files at all left - did it through control panel, search etc., rebooted and downloaded it again (this make about 5 times now) and still get that same message that the folder cannot be found. Help! I just blew about $400 in the Apple store!
    Can anyone help me?

  • Is there a facility to more easily sync music my four Apple devices and my wife's three Apple devices without the horrid iTunes error messages when there is nothing wrong with our connection?

    We’ve been using iTunes Match pretty much since the beginning, but recently my wife has turned it off and refused to re-subscribe. I’m fast getting to the same place. It just seems so unstable, wishing Apple would invest some of their billions into it. I read with dismay how many people find Google Play to be so much better. As I write this I see a “Cannot connect to iTunes store” on my iPhone. Noting wrong with our connection … it’s alive and well.
    Bearing in mind that I have two Macs, an iPhone and an iPad and my wife has a Mac, iPhone and iPad what we really want is the following.
    I want all our music to go up to one location (iCloud or even better our own server). I want an app or web app that I see on the right hand side a list of artists or albums (or playlists) and columns for each device. I want to be able to tick the “matrix” to specify which devices the artist/album/playlist should be downloaded to. When the device is switched on, it must download (no fuss no bother and no stupid I-can’t-do-anything-about error message). A nice enhancement would be to specify three options for each entity (Download, Stream, Not Available). There must be options to easily bulk select.
    So … is there such a thing out there?
    In my immediate family plus spouses and kids girlfriends/boyfriends there are 11 Macs, three iPads and 10 iPhones. My brothers are very similar. I have nieces and nephews that use Apple. My parents also use Apple. Collectively, we have a bunch of Apple equipment.
    Did I mention I'd like it to be stable?

    Unless you have EE 4G service the UK 3G networks are the base of your problem - they are just far to variable in download and streaming speeds.
    Add to the fact that use can/will eat into your Data usage !
    ITunes Match as a service is pretty experimental at best over 3G and really i think so long as you have a 32GB or larger iOS device sync'ing via iTunes on a PC/Mac remains the best way to transfer music.
    Remember even with iTune Match your music is STILL ON your own PC/Mac HDD !
    Usng the devices tab in iTunes you can customize each differing identified iOS device and load as you please.
    When we have a competitively priced stable and extensive LTE network in the UK then reconsider Match at that point.

    MosheCS,
    Thanks so much, it fixed it, I'm happy to give you the 10 points
    Also to be precised I follow these instructions: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8342.html
    A specificly this one:
    To apply the same permissions to every item contained in the selected folder or disk, open the Action (gear) menu and choose “Apply to enclosed items.”
    Thanks again, I can delete a file without being asked for my password and I'm able to import in iTunes using the feature "add to my library".
    Great find

  • IPhone 4 stuck in recovery mode, iTunes error message pops up saying cannot be restored...how do I go about this?

    Hi all..hoping someone can help me out with this.
    So I recently lost my iPhone 5, therefore I am going to use a friend's old iPhone 4 in the meantime. The iPhone 4 has been jailbroken, but I wanted to do a reset to clear the jailbreak as well as just clear all other data, so that I can just restore my own iCloud backup & use with my own data.
    However, the problem I am now faced with is that the phone is in recovery mode, and when I plug in the phone to my computer...I am given the options to click Restore. But after all the time it takes to update the software and supposedly doing its thing with "restoring" the phone....turns out no luck, i get an error message saying the phone cannot be restored. And now I pretty much can't do anything because I do not know how to do a reset of any sort to get out of this recovery mode.
    PLEASE HELP. first time losing phone, first time trying to figure out how to reset and get out of recovery mode. I just want to be able to reset and then restore with previous backup..
    I really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.
    *please ask any questions that you may need in order to help me solve this, since I am not exactly sure how to word some of these problems*
