Video app crashing & Can't load videos to Ipod Touch 5.1.1

My video app on my IPod touch (4th Gen 64GB) with 5.1.1 keeps on crashing. I read that this is not an uncommon problem. I click on the video app and a white screen shows up for a second, then the app crashes and reverts back to the home screen. This is the only app that is not working.
I have tried the following so far:
Reboot by using the red slider button
Reboot by holding the home and off button for 10sec. Apple logo appears and it reboots
Shut down the video app after double clicking the home button and deleting the open apps
I even did a complete "Reset all Setting" and then used my ITunes back up to load all the data back on.
I tried to delete all movies on ITunes and load a new one. - won't show up when I search for the video on the IPod
I tired to down load a movie from ICloud - won't show up when I search for the video on the IPod after the download
In ITunes the videos that I try to load to the IPod show up on the right menu bar under movies, but they are grayed out.
The one thing I have not tried for obvious reason is the complete wipe and start from scratch by doing the reset from ITunes and loading all apps and setting to the IPod all over again. I was hoping to avoid that pain...
Now, I don't use the Video app much, and could potential wait for OS 6 that is supposed to come out in the fall. That might load a new video app. Unfortunately, I can't delete the video app as it is part of the original set up.
Any tips? What will I lose with a compete wipe and how long will that take?
Thanks for your help

I tried the restore from backup and it did not work. I think I'll just wait until iOS6 and watch movies on my IPad. Don't want to do the factory restore if possible.
Any other tips are welcome!

Itunes Wont Load videos onto Ipod

hi, i currently have a 60GB ipod video, and now itunes is refusing to load any videos onto my ipod, i tried so many different programs to convert video, eg videora, PQ DVD, and Replay converter etc.
and i get the same error, it says video was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod.
is there a way to load videos without using Itunes? or can i force itunes to load the videos?
any help would be appreciated...
thanx ^_^

"All my songs are listed on the IPOD but are faded where they are in regular font in my library"
Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists".
Try restoring your iPod, this will erase the hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. This will give you a fresh installation and allow you to start over: Restoring iPod to Factory Settings

Pre-loading videos on iPod touches?

Hi,
I would like to pre-load some videos on some iPod touches and give them to some friends.
Will those videos get erased once those people connect the iPod touches up to their computer and synchronize them with their iTunes library? Or will it give them the option to save the pre-loaded videos?
Thanks

Good idea,
I will pre-load the videos so they can view them right away. In addition, I will give them the videos on a CD so they will have the option of re-importing them after synchronizing the iPod touch with their computers.
Thank you

ITunes not loading videos on ipod

Bought a new 30gb ipod...videos that worked on the older ipod video will not work on this..what do I need to do?

I had this same problem you described. My ipod would only put on select videos. This is how i fixed my problem... I connected my ipod to my computer and then in itunes the ipod updater poped up and i went the top of the updater and and clicked on the video tab. Then i went where is says svnc i clicked on all.(This gets rid of the all unwatched, when it says all unwatched it only updates all of the unwatched videos.) Then make sure you you click on apply at the bottom right hand corner of the ipod updater. Hope this fixes your problem

My itunes video won't load into my ipod

I just received my ipod and have been using it for a week now and I have been purchasing music videos and stand up comedians through itunes.
One video (about 22 min. long) was purchased and downloaded fine into my ipod. The video played fine, no problems. That is until I realized that a few days later, I could no longer see the video in my ipod. It is still in my itunes but no matter what I do, I cannot get it to load back into my ipod.
Any suggestions? I am at a total loss.

Thank you for the tip Jeff but I still cannot get the video to load onto my ipod.
It is in my itunes and plays there fine, but no matter what I do, I am still unsuccessful. And Apple's customer service is NO help at all.

I purchased a video from iTunes but it will not sync to my iPod. I get a message stating that the video "was not loaded to the iPod because iyt cannot be played on this iPod." I tried to use the "create an iPod version" but the command is grayed out

I was refering to the "sample rate", normally 44.1 KHz, the iPod might not be able to play tracks with a non-standard rate. Otherwise I'm not sure what the issue might be.

IPod will not load videos or purchases.

I received my black 30gb video iPod for Christmas. When I opened the box everything seemed to work fine. The click wheel seemed a little laggy but I just dismissed it as a design flaw.
Having been without a working iPod for almost 6 months I was eager to transfer all of my music to it. When I connected it to my Macbook Pro and began the instructional process, I was informed with the following error message with something along the lines of:
“Some songs won't transfer to your iPod because your iPod software is too old.”
Now, seeing as I was about to embark on an eight-hour drive to my college campus, I was in no position to seek a resolution to my dilemma. It is only now that I am able to fully devote myself to the problem.
The Problem
I have two computers, my Macbook Pro and a PC I built two summers ago. When I first received the error message, my first reaction was to update it. However, both the "Update" and "Restore" features are grayed out when I plug my iPod into my Mac. This prevents me from updating it or restoring it in any form on OS X.
Next I looked at the "About" feature under my iPod's settings and noticed that the iPod was configured for Windows. We did not intentionally buy an iPod formatted for Windows nor had we plugged it into a Windows oriented computer prior to opening it. The fact that it came to me already a slave to Windows didn’t bother me since I know that a Windows iPod can be read by both OS X and XP, but the fact that I could not update or restore my iPod still bothered me.
I plugged the iPod into my Windows computer to try to update it. I did to my surprise find an update but when I tried to plug it back into my Mac, I still received the same error. I even tried to reformat the iPod.
I have the most recent versions of Quicktime, iTunes, and iPod software known to me.
Quicktime Player Pro 7.1.3
iTunes 7.0.2
iPod Software 1.2.1
None of my purchased music or videos will transfer. It is also interesting to note that podcasts, and self-loaded videos will ALSO not transfer to the iPod.
If there is any other information (including screenshots) that I can provide, please let me know as I would be more than willing to obtain them.
-Thanks

yes itunes can convert movies into ipod playable format. to do this you have to do the following below
1)add the file you want to convert to the itunes library( file->add file to library)
2) once you added the file right click on the file and select covert selection for ipod
3) this will start the conversion and when thats done you will be able to load the videos onto your ipod.
mpg is not a playable format for the ipod. the videos have to be in quick time format.
but i wont advise you to use itunes to convert your videos. it takes too long when converting. try using a third party conversion programme like videora there are others try googling them
hope that helps

Some videos are not being loaded onto my Ipod

Hello everyone!
I have had around 10 iPods in the past, and I am yet to have one that does not have a problem. My last two, however, I am beginning to believe have to do with iTunes. Only 6 of my t.v. episodes load onto my iPod when I update it. I have purchased all of these off of iTunes. I have also lost access to around 3 of my videos all together. Is there a way to retrieve them?
Thank you for reading,
Mike

So all of the t.v. shows are in iTunes, but they won't copy over/sync up to your iPod? Am I understanding you correctly? Maybe what is happening is this. Check your settings for syncing tv shows and see if you have selected to sync "all unwatched" episodes. If you've watched them in itunes before syncing, then they won't get put on your ipod. I can't tell you what the other settings may be as I've got my ipod in "manually manage music and videos" and if I switch it over right now, I'll loose everything on the iPod. Just look at your various options in those drop down boxes and see what fits your situation best.

IPod won't load video from iTunes

Hey there people, this is my first time posting in here and I really need a hand. I just bought a 30 gig video and I converted some files on my computer to mp4 and the videos are viewable under movies in my iTunes. The problem is that when I plug my iPod into my computer a warning box comes up telling me that I cannot load the file onto the ipod because the ipod won't support the video (or something along those lines). Is there anything that I can do to fix it?? Please help!!!
Thanks alot,
A.

What did you use to covert them? The iPod has rather specific conversion requirements where as iTunes is a bit more relaxed. So it is perfectly reasonable to have video files that will play in iTunes but are not right for the iPod (bit rate too high, etc.)

Problem loading videos to my Ipod Touch

Hi
I wonder if there is a possibility someone could point me in the direction of a step by step tutorial on loading videos to my Touch.
I've already successfully loaded several albums of mp3s.
However I just cannot get videos on there at all.
I have converted them to the correct format ( mp4) yet cannot either drag and drop them, nor load them by using the options add new folder / add to playlist.
If someone could advise of the process step by step I would be grateful.

OK, first a few questions, because not all mp4 files are the same, at least as far as the iPod is concerned.
When you have iTunes up, and you click on Movies in the upper left hand corner you should get a list of movie files (these files should be located in My Documents at that level, not in subfolders). Do you see the name of the video there? If not, try under File to "Add file to library ..." Does it do it? If not, you don't have the right type of mp4 file. If it does, but when syncing it complains it can't find it, you need to click on it and then under Advanced select "convert to ipod."

Rented a movie on iPod touch says could not load video

Rented a movie on iPod touch says could not load video after a few minutes playing

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then try again.
If not successful, contact iTunes and request a free redownload. Then delete the old one from the iPod

HT201317 How do I up load videos from my ipod to photo stream? The videos were shot before I added photo stream.

I am trying to up load videos that I have taken on my IPod to my photo stream. I need the videos to some how be uploaded automatically so I can get them to my PC. I have Windows 7 operating system. I cannot add the videos to the photo stream folder because I took them before I added photo stream to my IPod. I have already downloaded the icloud control panel 2.0 to my PC and have the settings set on both of the devices. I don't know if I can't upload them to photo stream or if I can use something else? Please help. My daughter takes lessons everyday and we have to be able to get them to my IPad, PC and other devices. Thank you.

Only photos can be uploaded to Photo Stream.
No videos.
