ITunes Home Videos

How do I sort Home Videos according to date created? I am starting to have a lot of home videos for my baby, I imported them to iTunes, but there is no way to sort them according to date created. All I can do is to assign each movie with a year, then sort them by year and file name. But the file name resets after IMG_9999 to IMG_0001, so the sort by file name does not work anymore...

Try this:
go to home videos and look for this
It will open this:
See if that has any effect. Good Luck.

  • Cant watch itunes home videos on ipad

    How do I view my uploaded itunes "home videos" on my ipad?  os 10.10.1 and os 8.1.1

    If you have :
    - home sharing enabled on your Mac's iTunes (File > Home Sharing ; and check what is being shared in the Sharing tab in iTunes > Preferences)
    - home sharing enabled on your iPad with the same account (Settings > Videos or Settings > Music)
    - both the Mac and your iPad connected to the same network and,
    - iTunes is open on your Mac
    then you should get a 'Shared' tab at the top of the Videos app which will allow you to select your Mac's iTunes videos. All your Mac's Movies (so actual films as well as home videos) will probably be shown on the same screen on your iPad, mine doesn't distinguish between type of 'film'. Not sure whether it's just my library, but I don't get cover art showing for all of my shared videos on my iPad.

  • When I import new home videos into my iTunes and edit the names it creates duplicate Library's on my Apple Tv. How can I stop this from happening each time I edit a name in iTunes home videos??

    I am having an issue with duplicate Libraries showing up in my Home Sharing "Home Videos".  It happens when I import home videos into iTunes and change the names of the files. How do I avoid this from happening and delete the duplicate libraries?

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

  • How do I add my video files to the "home videos" folder on itunes?

    Sorry, I'm relatively new at this, I'm trying to add my family videos to my itunes "home videos" in itunes but I can't seem to bring them into my library.  ideas?

    make sure they are MP4 or MOV files, and simply drag them into the library window of iTunes.

  • ITunes Home Movies Library working, but INCONVENIENT

    I'm on iTunes 12.0.1.26, and up to date on all my Mac OS software.
    I collect still photos from the web, and hold them in topical folders.   From time to time, I use Graphic Converter to "Export Slide Show to Movie", which does an acceptable job of preparing quicktime .movs that allow me to "run" the topical slideshows as movies, without needing to to manually operate any slideshow controls.   I then ADD the .movs to my iTunes Home Videos Library, where I can use iTunes' "Create New Version" to convert them to MPEG-4 formats that seem to be needed for loading to my iPhone and iPad.   I'm enjoying the results, but the whole process is tedious, particularly when I view the "Home Videos Library".   iTunes just DOES NOT IDENTIFY the format of the various copies of the movies that I end up with.   There's an icon image of a still photo in the movie in .mov format, another identical image for the movie in .mp4 or .m4v, and that's fine but I must laboriously "Get Info" on each movie to determine the actual format of each.   And I end up guessing which copy of a movie to send to the ios devices when I manually sync.  Why can't iTunes help more by, like, just SHOWING the format information underneath the icon of each movie?
    Maybe I'm doing all this the hard way.   Can anyone suggest a better method?
    Just in general, does anyone feel like iTunes itself has just grown so much functionality that it's increasing hard to understand and use?   It started off as a little music player, but has grown into not only the whole store thing and the whole cloud thing and the whole books and movies and tv shows thing, but also practically a separate OPERATING SYSTEM for managing iOS device content.  It now feels all bloaty and unintuitive and multi-step and clunky to me, which is not like most other Apple software.
    AND I'm about to submit this question to the iTunes for Mac Community, but this support interface demands that I choose from a limited set of Categories, none of which remotely relates to my question.
    Thanks for any response!

    Assuming you restarted iTunes from your comments.
    It doesn't seem very prevalent but several users including myself have had issues with being Home Sharing in recent months - a library lists under computers but cannot be accessed until I restart itunes.  I am also seeing similar issues Home Sharing from one Mac to another when it just seems to hang.

  • I'm using Windows 8.  I have 2 folders in my videos library - movies and personal videos.  When I try to import a movie into iTunes, it puts it in the Home Video section and if I import a personal video, it puts it into the home video section.  what up?

    Im using Win8.  I originally had all my ripped movies in a movie folder listed in the videos library.  This imported into iTunes movies with no issue.  I later added a second folder t my library - personal videos where i put all my home videos.  I was able to import this into iTunes and it showed up in "Home Movies" - very cool and exactly what I wanted.  Now, if I add a new ripped movie and put it in my movie librairy and try to import it into iTunes, it places it in Home Movies.  And if I put a new personal video, it will also import into iTunes under 'Home Video?.  What is going on here??  Any help would be greatly appreciated - it seems like this is a bug in iTunes 11.

    I thank you for the response.  Apple does some assinine things sometimes and this is one of them.  Ask the planet the difference between a movie and a home video and with the exception of Apple, you'd get 100% consenus on the what difference is.  A home video is something that I shoot, like my kids birthday party.  A movie is something I urchased either via download or a DVD that I ripped.  Unbelievable!   The fact that Apple has chosen not to distinguish based upon which folder I tell it is Movies and which folder is Home Videos is really hard to fathom - sounds like something Windows would do. I find it funny that in my iTunes movies sub-section of the movies section, the movie icons have a cloud icon in upper right corner to distinguish it as bought from Apple iTunes versus no cloud icon for movies that I have ripped - so the distintion was already made and clearly visible.  Now - everything just defaults to "home videos" if I try to import a new ripped DVD - why even bother to have this distinction on the iTunes bar?  WOW!
    As for your direction, I do not understand what you are telling me - what Media Kind and what Options tab are you referring to?  I see no Options tab in iTunes.  Right licking on the movie icon does not yield media kind or options as well.  Gping to the source file does not yield these options either.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • How do you move or can I move Itune folders (Movies), (TV Shows) and (Home Videos) to other internal hard drives (running out of space) on my computer's main hard drive and have Itunes recongize where they are?

    I built my own computer which has 4 internal hard drives with 3 internal hard drives that are 3tb.  With my movies and tv shows, I need to know if I can move the Itunes folders (Movies, TV shows and Home Video's) and move each one of them to 3 seperate internal hard drives while Itunes can still find them to play with my apple tv.  Does anyone know how I can do it?

    While you can do that, it is not a feature of iTunes.  Put your movies on the external drive, then add them to iTunes by dragging the files to iTunes while holding the option (alt) key down so it leaves the files where they are located.  There are other ways to move them if they are already added but they can be more involved and tricky.  If it's just one or two try:  http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=relocateselected

  • I have home videos from a Sony DCR-HC20 and am trying to get them onto my IMac in itunes or imovie and I have it plugged in with a USB and don't know where it is or what to do next.

    I have home videos from a Sony DCR-HC20 and am trying to get them onto my IMac in itunes or imovie and I have it plugged in with a USB and don't know where it is or what to do next.

    Hello, not certain, but turn the Camera onto Play if it has such a setting, does it show up in iMovie then?

  • ITunes 12: All added video goes to "Home Videos", and cannot be moved.

    I have just updated to iTunes 12.01.26 on Windows 7 (Home Premium, Service Pack 1)
    I have checked both the 'Keep iTunes Media folder organised' and 'Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library' in preferences.
    Whenever I add video files (TV or Film) by dragging into iTunes, the video file is copied into the 'Home Videos' folder.
    I then use 'Get Info' /options to set the 'Media Kind' to be Film or TV.
    Unlike the previous versions, although the video file now appears in the correct category (in iTunes) - the original video file still resides in the 'Home Videos' folder.
    Renaming the file (with show, name, title etc) has no effect on either the file name or the location.
    Furthermore, when selecting 'TV', there seems to be no option to label the episode with the correct episode ID - only the season/episode.
    Has there been a change in the nature of the way iTunes organises media files, or is this a fault in iTunes, or a problem with Windows?

    You can report problems via the relevant feedback form, e.g. iTunes Feedback, or sign up for a free Apple Developer Connection account and make use of Apple Bug Reporter. They don't generally talk back, but they do claim to read everything. I haven't reported the problem myself. I guess if nobody does they won't pick up on it, otherwise it is the sort of thing that usually gets fixed in the next release. Sadly there isn't an open bugs forum where you can see what issues have already been reported, although if you use the bug reporter you report may get closed as a duplicate which at least tells you that they are aware of the problem.

    You can select all the movies you want and change them at once.

  • Can't sync home videos to iphone 5, iTunes 11.1.4

    Hi,
    For some reason, after successfully doing this many times (I already have some home videos on my iphone 5), when I sync a 7 minute home video in 720p H264 quicktime movie format from itunes to my iphone 5, it does not appear on the iphone 5 under videos.  I have got manual sync enabled so that I can check only specific video files I want to sync.
    I have already tried:
    - checking all video types in the video app and it doesn't appear
    -  changing the video type in 'get info' to 'movie' - didn't work
    - deleting and re-importing the video file to itunes - didn't work
    - convering the video file within itunes to iphone - didn't work
    - closing itunes and turning off the phone, turning phone back on and opening itunes - didn't work
    - syncing via cable - didn't work
    - syncing via wifi - didn't work
    - unchecking the video, syncing, then re-checking the video, syncing - didn't work
    Then   I tried syncing some other home videos, and they do not appear on the iphone 5, after waiting for the sync to finish.  I guess this rules out any particular video file and suggests a sync issue.
    I have 34.16gb free space according to both itunes and the iphone 'about' settings on the iphone.  The video I want to add is only ~400mb.
    In checking some other threads, I could not find an answer.
    Your suggestions to resolve this one would be greatly appreciated...

    I also found, finally, that selecting "manually manage" for the device on the summary page in iTunes for the helped.

  • How do i play a home video in iTunes using apple tv

    I have imported an mp4 into iTunes and it appears in the home video section under movies.  I cannot seem to find it on my Apple TV though.
    To problem solve, I first created a new version of the video by going to file > create new version > create version for apple tv
    The new version appeared next to the original, but still will not appear using my apple tv. I am trying to play this video on my home tv, but not having any luck. 
    Suggestions?

    You would be accessing the Computers icon - Movies - Home Movies.
    If it doesn't appear, make sure it is compatible (see below)
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High or Main Profile level 4.0 or lower, Baseline profile level 3.0 or lower with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 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, 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

  • Playing Home Videos from iTunes

    Gday All,
    We are new to Apple TV and are still working through exactly what we can and can't do. We have several Macs in the house and 1 PC all with iTunes 9 installed. The Apple TV can see all the shared libraries (ie the computers running iTunes) and we have been able to play music from iTunes using the Apple TV as the 'output' device.
    I would like to know if it is possible to create movies (like home movies from a video camera) and import them into iTunes so that they can be played on the Apple TV. Basically this question came about because my daughter recently took some video while on holidays and thought that if she put them into the movies folder in iTunes she should be able to play them via Apple TV on our plasma TV. Unfortunately Apple TV doesn't even see the videos.
    Does anyone know how to do this?

    Yes you can watch home video on the tv. Your video needs to be in the correct format which is:
    Video formats supported
    H.264 and protected H.264 (from iTunes Store): Up to 5 Mbps, Progressive Main Profile (CAVLC) with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 1280 by 720 pixels at 24 fps, 960 by 540 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    iTunes Store purchased video: 320 by 240 pixels, 640 by 480 pixels, 720 by 480 pixels (anamorphic), or high-definition 720p
    MPEG-4: Up to 3 Mbps, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 720 by 432 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    If the video file is imported into itunes, you are pretty much well on the way. Ensure that after adding the file to itunes that it is tagged properly (ie as a movie) and that the library has been synced. If the video still cannot be seen or played by the tv, select 'convert selection for apple tv from the advanced menu.
    If this doesn't work, you may need a third party conversion tool, but try the above first and we'll take it from there.
