Loading a video file from my windows pc to my ipod touch 4

I received an MP4 video file from my daughter in Germany. How do I transfer this file to my new IPOD Touch 4 so I can show it to people. The file is loaded on my windows PC running VISTA. The file is in format MP4.
Thanks you for any assistance.

Posted in iPad section.
Plug the iPod in.
Once it mounts, drag the video file onto the iPod icon in iTunes and release.
If it doesn't transfer-you don't have manually manage music/video turned on.
Either turn it on or import the movie into iTunes.
Add the movie to your sync list, sync the iPod.

Can I store video files (from digital camera) on my 30GB ipod?

I'm leaving next week for holidays and I am looking for a storage device. I don't want to take my laptop with me as it is my employers. I want to be able to store video files from my Sony DSC-W30 camera. Does anyone know if the camera connection will work for this?

Well in case anyone was wondering. It works. You can't view them but they are all there. It is an excellent way to have digital storage device on the road. It does eat into the battery charge quite a bit though. Make sure it is well charged before you import photo's and video's.

How to copy an Excel, Word, music or video file from my Windows computer to iphone 4s?

I am using my new iphone 4s for 2 weeks now. I am not able to copy my favourite old music and video files and some useful Excel, Word and Pdf files from my Sony Vaio. Why doesn't it allow for copy paste when it is connected to my laptop by USB cable? Moreover it doesn't accept Bluetooth connection from my computer as well. Then I tried emailing the file, but it doesn't download the file, instead makes a link in the homescreen and for opening the file, I have to connect to the inernet.
I don't know what is happening with this phone. These are the basic things which a user wants in any phone. If it is not allowing for these things despite all that hypes and fame sorrounding it, it is a pretty useless thing. So is there any option to copy the files onto it? Thank you in advance.

Something doesnt quite sound right here, firstly an iPhone isnt a media storage device so you cant simply move files to it, you need to use an App such as Documentd to Go or cloud storage such as Drop Box or Sky drive to store the documents then you will be able to View them from your phone.
Emailing them is another option and this works fine for all the people i know, for pdf, excel, word and txt documents and most common files but again this is view only.
Apple have their our apps, Pages, Numbers etc which also uses the cloud to store the documents which can then be accessed from any ios device or mac etc.
Finally as mentioned above, music and video's are managed through iTunes, using Apple products means you need to use the tools offerred by Apple to get best use of the device, thats just the way it is with Apple.

My video files dont want to copy on my iPod touch 4G.

I convert films to iPod format, but in iTunes when I want to sync films I have an error something like "cant copy because iPod doesnt playing this file"...
Sorry for my English... I'am from cold Russia

If I understand u, I need convert video in some prigram(like aas movies2iPhone, Xilisoft Video Converter Ultimate 6 or something else), and just after I have video im MPEG-4 I can add this in iTunes Movie Library and convert file here(using the Create iPod and iPhone Version option in the Advanced tab of iTunes)? It's difficult and strange way to copy films on iPod BUT(!) it's works! It's really strange... why my video after convertation in other programs(with default details and settings for iPod touch 4G) can't copy...

HT4859 how can i restore files from backup after i reset my ipod touch?

I rebooted my ipod touch how can i restore my back up files

Welcome to the Apple community.
Rebooting your device is not the same as restoring it, to restore a device go to settings > general > reset > erase all contents and settings. Once you do this you will then be given the option to restore it from a backup or as a new iPod.

Ok..got it thanks! But, that leads me to my next question. I have over 140GB of music on an external hard drive that I want in my library. I know I can set the media folder to that external drive, but when I add the songs to my library, it would copy the files into that folder and not just move them meaning I'd have double the files on my drive? Is there a way to set it so it just transfers the files directly to the media folder and keeps them there?
Drag the file into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder, which can be found in your iTunes Media folder. iTunes will add the file to your library and will immediately move it to an Artist/Album folder and you will end up with only a single copy. Try it now with one file so you can see how it works, before doing larger batches.

IPad Mini with iMovie ap. Hooked up iPad to my Windows via USB in an attempt, through iTunes, to copy some QuickTime video files from my PC to my iPad. As I followed the instructions, it seemed I can only copy from the iPad to my PC and not vice versa.

Using iTunes on my PC, I wish to transfer some video files from PC to iPad mini. Can this be accomplished?

How can I use my time capsule to save files from my windows PC (Windows 8.1)?

I have been to see the iStore close to where I live but I am frustrated to say that they are no help what so ever. The technical desk there freely admits that they do not how to do it and all they say is "apparently it is easy. Just follow the instructions on screen" which helps me no end!
I have the Time Capsule set up on my mac and want to use part of the disc to save my files from my Windows PC (running Windows 8.1) that is on the same home network.
I have found the apple forums so helpful in the past that I am pinning on my hopes on anyone that can help me via the forum now!

Load the airport utility for windows. Sadly the most recent one is old.
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1547
Although it is for windows 7 it does work on 8 and 8.1 .. tell us if you have problems loading it. Some people find it won't work without using safe mode.
The utility will not help a lot to setup the latest model TC.. it is fine for Gen4 and earlier. But it does load bonjour for windows and a disk access agent.
The TC should run simple names.. Short.. keep them below 10 characters if you can. No spaces and pure alphanumeric.
That includes the base station name and wireless name.
Once all of that is correct, open windows explorer and type in the address bar.
\\TCname or \\TCipaddress where you replace TCname with the new short name or TCipaddress with obviously its actual IP.
You will then get a request for username and password. Username is whatever.. admin will do. Password type in your disk access password.. public by default.
TC is not designed to allow partitions so you cannot partition the TC disk. Create a folder and simply copy and paste your files to the folder.
NOTE:: The TC cannot back itself up. So make sure you do not move files to the TC without having another copy.
NOTE:: The TC does not happily mix TM backups and data.
See http://pondini.org/TM/Home.html For info about TM and the TC.
This area in particular.

How can i copy my data files from a windows backup to mac mini

I recently purchased a mac mini and waiting on its arrival. I am converting from WinXP and my current system is not working at the moment (started smelling smoke one day and the video hasn't displayed since from the PC - so its been shut down). I can easily fix whatever the issue is with the PC - however - my question is. I perform periodic backup of my data files to an external drive with Windows Backup, can I restore my files from the Windows Backup to the Mac Mini? If I don't have to fix the PC - I can save that cost and buy an CD drive for the Mini (or something else).
I haven't investigated the real problem on the PC - I just know its hardware related (not OS).
My last backup was atleast 1 month ago - so I know I might lose a couple of things....but not very much. If its "simplier" for the migration process to fix the PC - then that is the answer but if I can extract from the external 1TB Seagate. I think I only have 50GB of data (itunes / pictures / etc)
Thanks

After you download a player(I recommend avplayerhd), you can try holding your finger on the file until you get a popup window asking what you want to open it with.

Let ff auto delete file from c:windows\temp after download?

Say you download a rar file. firefox builds the file first in C:\windows\temp as it download to completion. Then FF COPIES this file to the destination folder which could be on another drive. BUT FF never deletes this temp-file in c:windows\temp after copying. And you can NOT delete this file temp-file until you close FF. Deleting browser history temp files using ctrl-shift-del does not work.
Why is this?
Say I download many rar files at once. After each file completes firefox cCOPIES them to the destintaion directory. Again they go to another drive. BUT FF never deletes the temp-files form c:\windows\temp after completion of download and copying to the destintaion folder. UNLESS you close firefox.
Meanwhile this can clog up my small SSD drive which is only 20GiB
Need workaround please?

OK you developers are such autistic a**holes. I just tried to manually delete the temp files FF makes when downloading files from c:\windows\temp. This did not free up space there's still the same amount of space left (163MB) on my SSD as before deleting the tempfiles form this dir. WTF is this?

Why can't I delete this video file from my trash can?

I have a video file that I will not disappear from my trash can when I click the "empty track" button. I managed to move the folder containing the video file from documents to the trash after a lot of effort, but it kept telling me that I didn't have the privileges necessary to delete the video permanently. Now the video file is sitting inside a folder inside the trash can where I can't move anywhere else. If I try to move it anywhere else, it simply copys to that folder but stays inside the original stays in the trash can as well, but I can still delete the copy and the original stays sitting in the trash can. Can anyone help me so I can get rid of this file once and for all.

ho yeah .. i know that, but i tried even in a low quality and it's not worked.
Maybe it's related to the TimeQuick?
