Itunes won't add video..help please

  • Photoshop CS6 extended won't import videos, help please?

    Before I get to the meat and potatoes (details), I'd like to ask that you don't be an @$$ with your answers, please, if my friend is doing something wrong, don't just say "well, derp, you're doing something wrong", actually tell me what he's doing wrong so I can tell him and he can fix the issue. He'd post but he's having internet issues as of 10 minutes ago.
    My friend got Photoshop CS6 extended so he could do a few things with his photos, he also wanted to try out some of the stuff with the video editing, and since it's the extended version, it should (at least in theory) import video, right? Wrong, no matter what format he converts to he gets an error telling him he's using the right kind of document. I have seen the photoshop video editor, my friend has seen the video editor, but we can't get it on his copy of photoshop because he can't get a video to import no matter what format he converts to. Is there a way to fix this or has the promise of video editing in the extended version of photoshop just been a lie? I'm confused, please help.
    FORMATS TRIED:
    .3gp
    .3g2
    .avi
    .asf
    .DV
    .mkv
    .mpg (mpeg1 and mpeg2)
    .mp4
    .mov
    .mts
    .m2ts
    .ts
    webM format
    .wmv
    NONE OF THESE FORMATS WORK FOR VIDEO EDITING IN PHOTOSHOP CS6 EXTENDED. He can use it for photo but he really wants to try the video editor since he doesn't like movie maker and he can't afford any other video editing software right now.

    To see if there is something deeper see if the video plays in Bridge.

  • ITunes won't install! Help please! :(

    Okay, so I tried to install iTunes today so I could put some music on my iPod nano.
    When I tried to install iTunes it said "The iTunes + Quicktime installer requires Windows XP Service pack 2 or later. To install the latest Windows XP Service Pack, use Windows Update.". So I went and tried to update my windows. And when I got over there and it said my windows wasn't valid (genuine) and if its not valid I can't update anything. So now I'm screwed right?
    Then I tried installing the old iTunes (iTunes 6.0). I thought it was working perfectly until I plugged my iPod and then it said: You need the new iTunes version (7.0 or later). So yeah, i think I'm screwed. Help anyone?
    How can I get the service pack 2 and where? Or what can I do to install iTunes? (THE NEW ONE). What can I do to put music into my iPod?
    *PLEASE HELP ME!*
    I'LL ACCEPT ANYTHING

    So I went and tried to update my windows. And when I got over there and it said my windows wasn't valid (genuine)
    If that is an authorised version of Windows that you've got on there (despite what that message says), then the following Microsoft document might be of some help:
    When trying to run the Windows Genuine Advantage validation check located on the Windows Update web site, you receive the following error code: "0x80080299"

  • New ITunes unable to Play videos Help please!

    I recently transferred all my videos and music over from my old itunes which was on a desktop to my new laptop. The music plays fine and I can watch and listen to music on my new ipod which has been synced to this computer. I am however having an issue watching videos through itunes itself, all i get is a funky green screen and the audio. Any ideas?
    Thanks, appreciate the help!

    Unfortuneatly at this point, mant people are having play back problems with any DRM video...some people seem to work, a large portion do not. The problem seems to be one of 3 things:
    - A grey screen with no sound or video
    - A grey screen with no sound or video, and apple prompt the account to be re-authorized over and over again, even after it is authorized and music is playinf
    - A green screen with sound but no video
    Unfortunately I have tried all of the fixes suggested (seach for my posts, you will see what I have tried), but apple support is unable to help me and many others...and we're out in the cold. My suggestion: NON DRM all the way, it just works, quicktime and itunes play any NON DRM, unfortunelty, thats not the way its all going, so...you have to make a choice now...walk on the dark side or...wait..and hope......that apple will eventually come up with a solution. I'll put my faith in the Dark Side for now...evil just works.

  • My ITunes won't open! HELP PLEASE

    So I click on the icon, and there's no error message or anything, it just won't open. I have tried all of the troubleshooting on the site, and I've re-downloaded, restarted my computer, everything, I've also tried opening it from the start menu.. what do I do?

    Ps.. My quicktime opens and I can search for music and play it but itunes still wont' open
    thank you kindly.
    another couple of preliminary questions aimed at narrowing in on possible culprits.
    (1) do you have Norton Internet Security 2005 installed on the PC?
    (2) reboot the PC. bring up your Task Manager, and click on the "Processes" tab. now try to launch itunes again.
    does an "itunes.exe" process appear in the Processes tab? if so, does it persist in there or does it disappear after a few seconds?

  • Why does Itunes encounter a problem and stops every time I try to sync my home videos - help please

    Why does Itunes encounter a problem every time I try to sync my home videos - it just won't sync them - help please !!!!

    Re-installing iTunes wont erase your folders, unless your iTunes is a very old version pre-iTunes 9 series.
    I would suggest to download the latest iTunes, it would solve your problem as in this earlier  post

  • Itunes won't recognize the 80g, PLEASE HELP

    itunes won;t recognize the 80g, PLEASE HELP, I've done everything the intstructions suggested. My old 20g used to pop up and automatically install. This does nothing

    You might be running an earlier version of iTunes.
    The latest version is 7.4.3, you can access it at this location:

    Let me know if that helps.

  • 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 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.

    well i have to be honest, but i don't know if it the vista you use has any significance for this. but you can try.
    okay follow:
    1: click "start" on the status line on the buttom of your screen.
    2: then click on "all Programs" and find "Accessories" and find the "command prompt"
    3: Right click with your mouse "command prompt" and click on "run as administrator"
    (as you has click'd on "run as administrator", "command prompt" should appear.)
    4: when it appears you need to type this "netsh windsock reset"
    5: wait for your computer to registrer the command you gave it, and restart your computer.
    then erverything should be pretty much as good or better then new.

    iPod touch 2G. Not syncing, not restoring, not switching on. iTunes 10.4.1. Help Please!

    - What happens when you try to sync and restore?
    - If iTunes is not seing the iPod see if restting the iPod will either fix the problem or allow you to see it in iTunes so you can restore the iPod
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

    I seem to be having the same problem on my Windows 8 laptop... I am able to update my iPod Nano through iTunes but my iPhone is not recognized as a device in iTunes. Have been able to update my iPad until recently. Is this a bug fix that Apple can help with? I'd rather not uninstall all my Apple programs if I can avoid it...
