ITunes organize home movies including mobile format with AppleTV & iPhone?

I use both AppleTV and iPhone to watch and play home movies. I currently organize my home movies under TV Shows and then organize each movie by year. For example - I may have 6 home movies under "Home Movies 2008" and 7 movies under "Home Movies 2009." iTunes organizes the home movies like it would TV Shows so I can see how many movies I have under each heading.
What is the best way to organize movies that are formatted to play on my iPhone? I may have the same name for a movie in 720p and iPhone format. Anyone currently organizing a successful way when utilizing AppleTV and iPhone? Recommendations?

maybe you and apple disagree when something is hd
apple sd movies are around 853x480 pixels

  • How can I copy a home movie onto another DVD with my MacBook Pro?

    How can I copy a home movie onto another DVD with my MacBook Pro?

    That's a proprietary interface.
    Odds are there is no adapter. Ask Sony.

  • I previoulsy have adding many CD to my iTunes music library and then synched them with my iPhone so that I have all music in both places. And I could the CDs in iTunes or iPhone with no problems. Recently, my iTunes "sees" the music but won't play it. Why

    I have added many CD to my iTunes music library and then synched them with my iPhone so that I have all music in both places. Then I could the play them in iTunes or iPhone with no problems. Recently, my iTunes "sees" the music library but won't play any of it becuase "the original could not be found". If I attach my iPhone, then it pays them through the iPhone, but still not through the library in iTunes. How can I get the music library on my iPhone to transfer (i.e. restore it) to iTunes? I have iPhone 4S but have not upgraded to the iOS 6, and have not had any problems until last week.  Help!  Thanks.

    Check the manual for whatever backup program you used, or, if you just copied the files over, copy them that.
    How to restore data to your PC is outside the scope of these forums.

  • TS3408 I have a MacBook Air and suddenly Safari cannot find the Facebook server. I am out of my home country but no problem with my iPhone. Laptop was no problem either until now. Any recommendation?

    I have a Mac Air and suddenly Safari can't find the Facebook server. I am out of my home countryt but no problem with my iPhone's Safari. Any recommendations? I would like to put some pictures on Facebook from iPhoto. Thanks.

    you cannot keep up with all of the interfaces 'cause they do not even allow you to use the older os.
    You should be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion via the App Store applicaiton on your Macbook Air.   You do not have to upgrade, but it should be an option.
    I can't even get an ichat acct 'cause, help?
    iChat can use AOL Instant Messenger accounts (they are free), iChat can use Google Talk (Jabber) accounts (actually any Jabber based chat service).   And if you upgrade to Mountain Lion, you shoul be able to get an Apple iCloud account that can be used with the Messages replacement for iChat (think of Messages as being iChat renamed, with additional features).
    Oh and my battery very close to a year after buying it, which is one of the reasons I was so called to it, the battery life.  Well, having it stripped down to minimal usage, while working on nothing crazy, I could be cordless from nevver reahing 100% anymore, just under that, but gets to 20 percent in about 3 hours. No audio, no video, light low, it bothers me anyway.  Please, this is also a huge problem.
    Every battery today, has a limited number of recharges (not just Apple's).   Depending on how many times it has been recharged, will affect how much power it will eventually hold. <http://www.apple.com/batteries/>
    I know that generally after about 2 years of use (my use, not yours) I find that my batteries have very little life left in them (I frequently have my devices plugged in, so running fully on batteries only is most likely less than yours).
    You can have your battery replaced by Apple (for a fee) or by an authorized Apple repair facility.

  • ITunes does not sync my Outlook calendar with my iPhone calendar

    Problem: iTunes does not sync my Outlook calendar with my iPhone calendar.
    Background: The sync was fine until I got the Lenovo 64 bit with Windows 7. I have tried to follow lots of Q/As.
    Dear iTunes / Apple, This must be solved within iTunes, I believe.
    - Windows 7 Prof, vers 6.1, SP 1, 64 bit
    - iTunes: 11.1.3.8
    - iPhone: 3GS, 32GB, iOS 6.1.3
    - Computer: Lenovo X301, 64 bit
    - Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2 CPU U9400 @ 1.4 GHz.
    Sincerely
    Soren

  • Itunes and home movies

    I have an imac and macbook, I have created and edited home movie video on both and uploaded to itunes on the same ID but the video on one computer won't show up on the other when itunes is opened.  Why is this?

    Hey Jonsey912,
    Thanks for the question. If you have home movies that you would like to have on your iPad, you can sync them to your iPad with iTunes:
    iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2729
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
    Your other iTunes movies show up on your device because they are purchases from the iTunes Store (they can be downloaded). Because a home movie is different, you’ll need to sync it or use Home Sharing to view it on your device.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Home movies show as HD on AppleTV???

    Hello,
    I recently added some home movies to my iTunes Iibrary.
    They are not high definition, but AppleTV displays them with a HD logo.
    I had used the AppleTV settings in Handbrake to do some cropping and transfer them into an iTunes format.
    Can anybody help?

  • How do you convert a movie in .DAT format so its iPhone ready

    I'm on a current MAC BOOK PRO syncing with a iPhone 3Gs. I can play the .DAT movie in VLC on my MAC BOOK but cant work out how to get it into my iPhone. I cant open it with QT
    Any idea anyone?

    Does the DVD play like on a normal DVD player? Trying to find out if you have a real DVD formatted video.
    If you just copied off the data, that is not how to take a DVD to a computer. It has to be converted off.
    You said it is a personal video he made so if that is the case, look up Handbrake on Google as it can convert it for you. Even has setting for iPhone.
    Use the DVD he gave you as I don't know what is up with that DAT file.

  • ITunes 7.6.2 upgrade caused problems with AppleTV sync

    Just upgraded iTunes to 7.6.2, saw now installation problems. After the reboot noticed that connectivity to my AppleTV (now on v2.0.1) was VERY slow, and even doesnt resync correctly (tried automatic and manual). Here is what is wierd:
    - only the first ~20-30 movies are playable on the AppleTV
    - after the ~20-30 movies they show up in the directory list, but always get the error that the format is not supported on appleTV, but were playable just fine prior to the upgrade
    - tried reboots of both appleTV and iMac
    Any hints?
    thx

    ATV 2.02 is out, has been out for a couple of days. Have you tried upgrading? You also might want to consider posting in the ATV forum for ATV questions. There are some very knowledgeable people there who I never see on this forum.

  • I have 1250 songs, a few videos in my ITunes library. I tried to synch with my IPhone 3g last night but it said my library is too big. Is that true?

    I have about 1250 songs and a few music videos in my ITunes library. Last night I tried to synch with my IPhone 3G but I got a message that my library is too big to synch it all. Is that true? How many songs can fit on an IPhone 3G. Thanks for any help.

    Look down at the bottom of your Itunes player and check the total size of your library. If the gigs are more than what your iphone will hold that error message will pop up. My suspicion is it that you have some very large video files and those take up a lot of space. To get more room, delete some of those video files and covert your music files to 128, if larger. Then resync your iphone. Also if you are using .wav files, covert those to mp3 @ 128

  • After I updated to iOS 6.0, iTunes tells me "there is a problem with your iPhone".

    I'm stuck on the activation screen. I can only select language and country, then it tells me to connect to itunes. In itunes I get the "there is a problem with your iPhone" message. Also, my iPhone keep "searching" for my carrier (Telenor in Norway), but never finds it.
    Thanks

    No, it wasn't jailbroken on iOS 5.1.1.

  • Cannot find iTunes rented, unwatched movie after moving from MAC to iphone and back to MAC

    Rented a movie and downloaded it to my MAC on 3/11. Moved to my iphone 3/12 in preparation for a trip. Never watched on iphone and moved movie back to MAC this morning. Now movie is nowhere to be found on MAC?  Any suggestions? When I hooked my phone up to the computer, the "move" button was active and the movie showed it transfered from my iphone, so I can't figure out why I can't find it on either device now.

    Will I get a reply? It seems Apple isn't as supportive as I thought.

  • Importing home movies from m4v format?

    I am trying to import home video that is in the m4v format into Imovie 08' with no luck. Any suggestions? They were in MPG format and i used handbrake to change them into MP4, but it changed them into m4v instead....?
    Thanks in advance
    Bill

    Any suggestions? They were in MPG format and i used handbrake to change them into MP4, but it changed them into m4v instead....?
    If you are using the TV preset, turn off the chapter track. (If using an older version with the same preset, also make sure the AC3 passthrough option is deselected.) I assume you are use an TV preset since you say the file container is M4V. However, even if you use the iPod preset (MP4 file container), be sure to turn off the chapter track. iMovie '08 does not like extraneous tracks like chapter, "Tween", AC3, etc.
