Itunes won't add movie files since updating to version 12.1.1.4

I have always added my own movie files in mpeg-4/mp4 format to iTunes in the past with no problems until I updated to 12.1.1.4.  Also, when I try to play a movie in iTunes, it says "This movie requires quicktime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." Suggestions?

You may need to install the version of iTunes here: iTunes for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards).
And then repair/reinstall QuickTime 7.7.6 for Windows.
Next time Apple Software Update or iTunes tells you there is a new version revisit the first link. It should be updated with a new "for older video cards" version that will work with QuickTime.

  • ITunes won't add large files to the library

    I use software to convert my personal DVDs into Apple TV format via H.264 decoder for 720p resolution. The resulting files are typically larger than 3GB for a 2 hour movie. Now iTunes won't add them to my library so I can't sync them or stream them to my Apple TV.
    Any advice? Is there a setting in iTunes that I overlooked?
    I have tried the mpg4 conversion setting for 480 resolution and those files will load into iTunes and stream to Apple TV, but they are grainy and a horrible quality. So for those saying I don't need to use the H.264, I am picky and want a high quality resolution.
    Thanks for any advice and help.

    It is possible that there is something else wrong with my files. Several mp4 files worked fine prior to getting a new iMac and transferring the files over (using ext HDDs, not the migration wizard). Quicktime won't even open the files in question. It states that they are not movie files.
    Sounds odd, they may be corrupted.
    Try enusring the file extensions are either .mp4 or .m4v (or .mov perhaps).
    3GB+ for a file intended for AppleTv 2 hours long sounds excessive and may exceed AppleTv playback specs but it shouldn'tbother quicktime. If the files don't open in QT they may well be corupted.

  • ITunes won't add pdf file to library

    Using iTunes 10.7 on Mac OS 10.6.8
    Simply trying to add a PDF file (created in Word for Mac 2011 v. 14.2.4) to my iTunes library so I can upload it to my iPad.
    I have done this many times before with no problems. Suddenly my iTunes will not add my files to the library.
    I did just run an automatic Mac software update (not sure what it was), and an recent update from Microsoft, but nothing out of the ordinary and I can't see why that would affect whether iTunes adds files.
    Tried looking in HELP function but fould nothing remotely related.
    Have no idea what to do now.
    Any suggestions?  This is something that I do a lot of so I'm having a real breakdown here!
    Thank you for any help.

  • ITunes won't add mp3 files to library

    I recently downloaded some mp3 files and for some reason I can't add them to my iTunes Library.  I've done this before without any problems.  The mp3 files play fine on my iMac, but I can't open them from within iTunes nor add them to the iTunes Library.  I've tried to drag the files into the Library or into a blank play list in iTunes and nothing happens.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Some mp3s are somehow coded with something iTunes does not like.
    You can try the MP3Scan&Repair utility (do a web search).
    You can use a lossless mp3 editor such as MP3Trimmer, Fission, or AudioSlicer ( this one is free and works on my G4 but maybe not on newer computers).  You can open the mp3 and save it again and maybe iTunes will like that copy better.
    You can re-code the mp3 back into mp3 using a third party tool or maybe Garageband (I don't have that).  This is undesirable because there will be lossi n quality.

  • ITunes won't add files or folders

    For the last couple of days I've been having a problem where iTunes won't add files or folders for no discernible reason. Yesterday I was able to add a few videos, then I wasn't. Today after reinstalling iTunes it added my music just fine, but when that was finished and I wanted to add something else, nothing. I don't know why it's doing this. Drag and drop doesn't work, either. When I try to bring a file over, I get a little red circle with the line through it saying it can't do it.
    Help?

    Ok. So its finally working again. Not sure why, but maybe my experience will help someone else.
    All I can say is that I have been trying a relentless combination of mounting and mounting the drive, checking and unchecking the 'copy files to iTunes Library', running 'consolidate library', and everything in between. One of them finally kicked it back into action.
    Nice Apple. 9.2.1 isn't buggy at all...that's sarcasm.

  • ITunes won't recognise my iPad since the latest update.

    iTunes won't recognise my iPad since the latest update. I have tried the solution on http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538, twice over but with no result.
    I have repaired each of the iTunes elements and restarted both the computer and the iPad several times.
    I have Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit operating system.
    Processor: Intel (R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz 2.40 GHz
    iOS 8.0.2 iPad 64GB

    Hi Skydiver119
    Thanks for your reply. That was what the solution I found on that link I posted, except it said to include the 'Bonjour' too. I've uninstalled everything, downloaded the latest iTunes, reinstalled and restarted the computer twice, but it still won't recognise the iPad. I've also rebooted the iPad each time.
    Any other ideas on what might work?
    Thanks in advance

  • ITUNES will NOT add mpeg4 files to library!!!!

    So I've tried many video converters on many settings...the files are fine. They play fine in quicktime.
    I cannot get the newly made video files into Itunes. .mp4 and .mov files will not add to the library. When i try, absolutely nothing happens
    Itunes WILL add .WMA Files to the library and actually play them. These files will not convert to ACC format so i can play them on my ipod however.
    all files meet the video file requirements that apple claims will work. (320x240, under 768kbps, etc.)
    HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      Windows XP  

    YEs, files downloaded before Monday are fine, coul add them ti library.
    I'Ve now changed the FTP client, from Transmit to Cyberduck, and can now add new files to the library. All files transfered via Transmit however remain unacceptable to iTunes. It is a pity, as Transmit is much faster and user-friendly.
    HAve written to Transmit for their input.

  • ITunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?

    iTunes won't open after downloading software update.  Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8  Simple solution?  And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

    It would help to know versions here.  I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed.  Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago.  If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses.  Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

  • Quicktime won't recognize MOV files?

    QT won't open MOV files, and gives a -2048 error that says it is not a file it recognizes. I know other people who are able to open the same files fine on their Mac computers, so I don't think it's a problem with the file...

    The -2048 error message usually means the file is MPEG-2 format.
    QuickTime can't view MPEG-2 without additional software ($20).
