Modify "sync movie" list.

How does one modify the "sync movie" list under the video tab?

To clarify: In order to get any files out of the video tab on the iPhone sync screen, the files have to be deleted from the iTunes library. If they are deleted from the iTunes library, they are not accessible to any iPod accessing iTunes or cannot be played on the computer. Consider Apple's Back Up suggestion: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302392
So if you are tired of certain movies or shows, and don't want them "cluttering" the iPhone sync Video screen, you can delete them from the iTunes library, but then they are LOST FOREVER and they not available on the computer.
For selected files, you can archive them and copy them off the computer by going to either the Movie or TV Shows folders and dragging them to the back up disk before deleting them. After they have been archived, you can go to the iTunes app and select the movies or shows from the library for deletion. I just prefer to uncheck the files I do not want syncd, since that means you want accidentally lose something you have purchased.

Syncing Movie Playlists?

In the past, I've always had specific playlists in iTunes that I would add/remove songs and movies from then sync directly to my iPod (just in case something happend and I lost everything on the iPod I could just sync right back to where it was).
But now with the iPhone 3G all I can do is scroll through a list (in my case, an extremely long list) of movies and put a tick next to the ones I want on my iPhone - this gets very annoying very quickly.
Is there a way to sync movie playlists directly to you iPhone 3G?

No way.
iPhone only recognizes one Movie list, the same for TV Shows.
If you want to create a Movie list in the iTunes you use to sync your iPhone, it won't be recognized either.
The Movies are treated as if they were in a solely single list that you can't modify... at least that you modify the name of every movie in iTunes to make them appear in different order.
I am agree that it is a must to have a way to manage movies in different lists. But, at this moment, it is impossible.

Syncing movies (mp4) from iTunes to iPhones not working version 2.2

Here is what I hope is the final answer to this incredibly prevalent problem, gleaned from a few PARTIAL answers, many USELESS answers, and some trial and error on my part.
Problem:
You are getting an error message when trying to sync MP4 movies to your iPhone using iTunes. (sorry I can't repeat the error message, I can't seem to restore the warning dialog that I turned off)
Solution:
Add the desired movie to the movies area of your iTunes application (you have already done this if you are receiving this error)
From the list view, select (regular click to highlight) the desired movie.
From the "Advanced" menu (NOT from right click as has been suggested many times), select "Create iPod or iPhone version"
Now you will wait for a long time. A progress bar will show the conversion in process.
When done, you will have two copies of the movies. One in the original location, and one in your iTunes movie folder. The newly created one will sync to your iPhone.
To determine which is the new movie either
1) Add "Date modified" to your list view by right clicking on the column headings in the movies list panel,
- or -
2) Right click on either of the lines and choose "Get Info" to view the name of the folder. Delete the one which is not the newly converted one. Hopefully this will only delete it from your movie list, not from your media. That's how it worked for me. If it asks if you want to move it to the recycle bin, you may have deleted the wrong one.
After it is done, attach and select the iPhone device. Go to the video tab and scroll down to "movies". Check/uncheck the appropriate boxes for your movie(s) and hit "apply". Your movie(s) should now properly sync the phone.
You do NOT need new software (for an MP4 movie)
"Convert to iPhone" is NOT on the context menu
Itunes will lock up for part of this process

That didnt work, and there was no conversion bar. Ever since the new software update, my two iphones will not sync movies, and the older iphone will also not sync the music now. What is the point of having these?

Unidentifiable Icon in "My Movies" List

This evening I bought a movie on my Apple TV and noticed an unfamiliar icon in the "My Movies" list. It looked somewhat like an "I" but it's not quite sharp enough for me to make out.
After trying a few things I figured out that it appeared to be an identifier for content that has been purchased on the Apple TV that has not yet synced back to iTunes. Once the Apple TV has synced back to iTunes running on my Mac, the icon went away.
Has anyone else seen this icon? Do you know what it is? I searched this forum and Apple's documentation but couldn't find anything.

Yes, that's it! Thanks. Is this feature documented anywhere or is it so obvious that Apple didn't need to spell it out for people like me?

How can we modify alv output list

Hi
this is fazil.
Please tell me any body How can we modify alv output list.
Thanks & Regards

Fazil,
check the program,
You can find the code in this program 'BCALV_FIELDCAT_TEST'
*& Report BCALV_FIELDCAT_TEST                                         *
This report allows to modify the fieldcatalog of a corresponding
output table and to view the effects of your changes directly.
Note that for some changes you need to newly display the whole
ALV Grid Control, e.g., DDIC-Fields are read only the first time
you call SET_READY_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY.
Note also that not all scenarios can be tested since the output
table does not comprise all fields to test available features
of the fieldcatalog. Copy this program and extend the output
table accordingly if you want to test such a special feature.
(The field CARRNAME in 'gt_sflight' was added to test field REF_FIELD
and TXT_FIELD of the fieldcatalog - see what happens if you
calculate subtotals by carrier-id).

HT203167 Movie isn't in my movie list

Hey all!
This may be a STUPID stupid question, but... here goes!
Well, I just bought 'Seven Psychopaths' from the iTunes Store, but the problem is, I see it in purchased items, and can play it from there... but it's not listed with the rest of my movies and when I search through the movie-list, it doesn't find it. I have actually played a few minutes of it from the Purchased folder and it works! But I want to sync my iPad to iTunes and I think it's not going to see it in my list. This is ANNOYING!
Help!

Can't sync movies to iPad; can't share movies on network

On the iPad (with retina display), when trying to watch movies shared from iTunes, after selecting the shared library, the circle spins for a while until failing with "Unable to turn on Home Sharing". This started happening a lot recently, but I figured it wasn't that bad....I can just sync a few movies to the iPad, no problem, right? WRONG!!!! I cannot sync movies to the iPad either. iTunes just acts like it is doing something, then after a while it just stops acting like it's doing anything. The movies never sync. Also, if I deselct movies that are already there, they still do NOT get removed from the iPad.
You might ask how I got the movies there in the first place. This happened once already and I reset the iPad. I was able to watch one movie in my shared library before getting the "Unable to turn on Home Sharing", and I was able to sync 4 movies. That was it though, and all attempts to watch shared movies or to sync movies now fail. Funny thing is that when I reset the iPad I lost a lot of custom settings. I only got movies on it for a day biut I've been configuring my erased settings for a week. I have reset my account info for home sharing in the iPad multiple times. I have reset the iPad. As I said, resetting worked for a day or two.
Any ideas?

DVD Movie List

I have DVDPedia and trying to publish a list on iWeb so friends can see my movie list with pictures and descriptions. The program has the ability to export to all sorts of ways but I can't seem to get it on a web page in iWeb. I have it on a Safari page just like I would like it to show up when you open it, but can't seem to get past this point. I have a .mac account and I don't know what else I have to have.
Gary

Hi Gary,
Nothing else...
DVDPedia published its files to a folder, right? (I love DVDPedia!)
Go to the finder menu choose Go=>iDisk=>My iDisk (if you prefer hit Command(Apple)Shifti)
A window will popup in which your iDisk contents will load you will find a folder called "Web" in it, Double-click it and you will find a Folder called "Sites" in it. Again double click to open. (you're now in iDisk/Web/Sites/)
Drop the folder created by DVDPedia into that folder
the url of it will be
web.mac.com/username/nameofthefolder/index.html
entering this will bring up the DVD list.
Now that the pages are on the web you could just make a link on your site to that url or you could embed them to iWeb using an iframe so that they look like being in your site actually...
Just make an html snippet and the iframe code to modify can be found on this page
http://alyeska.altervista.org/en/iWeb_iframe.html
If you experience any problems don't hesitate to post...
Regards,
Cédric

Can't sync movie from iPhone to without losing all my songs

I recently bought a 1GB movie directly to my iPhone and I want to back it up on my computer. I have "manage movies and songs manually" checked on the summary page, but when I try to drag the movie over it doesn't take. When I click the sync movies option I get a warning that I'm going to lose all my songs, which I don't want to do. Can someone tell me how to get this huge file off my phone so I can use that space for other files and purchases?

have you tried this ?
connect your device and right-click or control-click your iPod in the iTunes Source list, then choose +transfer purchases+ from the shortcut menu that appears.

How to access syncs movies.

This may sound stupid but where do my sync movies go? Are they automatically added to the MY MOVIES menu on the Apple TV 2?
Is there a way to refresh the list to make sure that the Apple TV is playing the movie from it's hard drive? When the movie is streamed it skips since I still didn't upgrade my router. With Apple TV 1 it was clear what you reading from the the ATV HD and now, not so much.
Any help?!

Yes, your synced movies go to "my movies"
in iTunes, device Atv/summary/custom sync/click "show only sync itms on Atv" then click on "sync" and your list will be refreshed
Now only the synced items will show up on your Atv
I use this setting and keep on Atv disk new movies, or what we want to watch in near future, and kids movie

Cannot sync movies to ipad

I am unable to sync movies to my iPad running iOS7. The movies had previously synced with no issues. I am not sure if this is an issue with iOS7 but did not have this problem with iOS6. I have tried different ports, updating iTunes & iOS, restoring and cycling power on everything.
The movies can be selected to sync but after sync they show up gray in the list under iTunes list of what is on the iPad. They also do not show up on the iPad.

I'm certain that the problem is from configuring the sync:

Cannot Sync Movies or Music to from iTunes on Mac Mini to Apple TV

Hello,
In itunes on my Mac Mini I can see my ATV and when I click on the ATV the only tab I have is the photos tab. I don't have a Movies tab to sync my movies. I have my ATV and itunes at the latest level and this is the first time I have tried to sync movies. Up until now I have just streamed the movies from the Mini, but I have 150Gb of space on the ATV that I would like to use.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks.

I too need the answer to this question. My Apple Tv was syncing just fine with iTunes up until I updated to iTunes 8.1 and then left town for a week. I returned, and my Apple TV would not appear in the Devices list in iTunes.
I tried connecting the AppleTV both via wireless and ethernet, and it never appeared in iTunes. Then I set up sharing between iTunes on my computer and the Apple TV and it finally showed up in the Devices list in iTunes, but it only shows the 'Summary' and 'Photos' tabs and will not sync music or movies with the computer. It was all working just fine before. I don't really care what happened (though Apple should) and would be happy to just get the Apple TV syncing again. How do I re-link it as a primary?
For what it's worth, the Apple TV does not show up in "iTunes Preferences > Apple TV > Apple TVs connected to iTunes". I've restarted the Apple TV, the router, and my computer, with no improvement in the situation.

IPOD Touch will not sync Movies

I have an Ipod touch, that will only sync 2 out of 6 movies that i have. I have recently purchased Zombieland and for some reason it will not sync to my ipod. It will play in my itunes, i can see it on my list of movies to sync, but when i click it ( and i have it clicked on only sync movies) it does not sync at all to my ipod. i have already reset my ipod touch twice and it is still doing this. it is also doing with with several other movies. what do i need to do to fix this?

Hello LCGalletti,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Are you receiving any error messages while trying to sync these movies? How do you have your iPod configured to sync movies from under the Movies tab? Do you manually manage your iPod's contents?
Perhaps these videos are just not compatible. If that is the case, highlight the video in iTunes and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version" from the Advanced drop down menu. Then try resyncing these movies to your iPod.
If they are purchases from the iTunes store, make sure you are trying to sync the *Standard Version* and not the *High Definition* version.
For more help regarding this issue, see this Apple support document.

Removing modify/sync NTFS permissions using removeaccessruleall in Powershell

Hi,
I've got a script together which removes all non-inherited groups from a user's home folder. It's working fine until I run into groups which have modify/sync permission. Even though I'm using the removeaccessruleall permission, those groups just don't
remove. I've attached the code I'm using below and I can provide the full script if needed.
$objAccessRule1 = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule($strAccount,"FullControl","ContainerInherit,ObjectInherit","None","Allow")
$objACL.RemoveAccessRuleAll($objAccessRule1)
I'd appreciate any insight anyone can provide.
Cheers,
Ed Narayan

Hi Rohn,
Still no luck. The modify/sync permission still remains. Here's my code:
import-module activedirectory
$StrInvocation = (Get-Variable MyInvocation).Value
$strRunDir = Split-Path $StrInvocation.MyCommand.Path
$strDate = get-date -format "dd-MMM-yyyy-HHmm"
# Set everyone to list folder contents - this folder only and remove extra groups on folder
function phase1
$strSharePath = $args[0]
$objACL = Get-Acl $strSharePath
# Define permissions
$strPermission1 = "Everyone","ListDirectory","None","None","Allow"
# Attach permissions to access rules
$objAccessRule1 = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule $strPermission1
# Attach access rules to ACL object
$objACL.SetAccessRule($objAccessRule1)
$objACL.PurgeAccessRules([System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]"AccountAdmins")
$objACL.PurgeAccessRules([System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]"SHR-MDRIVE")
$objACL.PurgeAccessRules([System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]"SYSTEM")
# Set access rules on ACL object
Set-Acl $strSharePath $objACL
# For each folder processed, turn on inheritance if it's off, remove orphaned acls and non-inherited groups
function phase2
[CmdletBinding()]
Param([Parameter(Mandatory=$True,ValueFromPipeline=$True,ValueFromPipelinebyPropertyName=$True)]
[string]$strFolder)
PROCESS{
# Set variables
$strLog = "$strRunDir\Logs\log-$strDate.txt"
$arrGroups = @()
$objACEs = @()
$objACL = get-acl $strFolder
$objACEs = $objACL.Access | Where-Object {!$_.IsInherited} | select-object IdentityReference -unique
[bool]$blnIsInherit = [bool](get-inheritance $strFolder | select-object -expandproperty inheritanceenabled)
[bool]$blnGroupExists = $false
$objChildObjects = Get-ChildItem $strFolder -recurse
write-output "`n" | Out-file $strLog -append
write-output "FOLDER:$strFolder `n" | Out-file $strLog -append
write-output "Inheritance enabled - $blnIsInherit `n" | Out-file $strLog -append
# If inheritance is turned off, enable it
if(!$blnIsInherit)
write-output "Enabling inheritance for $strFolder`n" | Out-file $strLog -append
$objACL.SetAccessRuleProtection($False, $True)
# If non-inherited permissions exist, process each of them
if(($objACEs| Measure-Object).Count -gt 0)
foreach($objACE in $objACEs)
[bool]$blnIsGroup = $false
[string]$strAccount = $objACE.IdentityReference
if($strAccount -like "*\*")
$arrSplit = $strAccount.split("\")
$strAccount= $arrSplit[1]
# Check if permission is for a group
$blnIsGroup = [bool](get-adgroup $strAccount -erroraction silentlycontinue)
# If permission is for a group, create an acl entry for removing it. Multiple remove entries can be created depending on the number of groups found
if($blnIsGroup)
Write-output "Removing:$strAccount`n" | Out-file $strLog -append
$objACL.PurgeAccessRules([System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]$strAccount)
if($strAccount-like "*SYSTEM*" -or $strAccount-like "*CREATOR OWNER*" -or $strAccount-like "*USERS*" -or $strAccount-like "*Administrators*" -or $strAccount-like "*S-1-5-*")
Write-output "Removing:$strAccount`n" | Out-file $strLog -append
$objACL.PurgeAccessRules([System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]$strAccount)
Set-acl $strFolder $objACL
Phase 1 changes the everyone group to list folder contents on this folder only and removes a bunch of groups from the root folder.
Phase 2 removes all orphaned sids and non-inherited groups from the folder and turns on inheritance if it's turned off.
At this stage, this feels like a bug within the ACL cmdlets.
Cheers,
Ed

I am having a weird problem with my phone every since it was updated this last time. I can sync movies from my computer to my iphone but any movies I buy with my phone I can not sync to the computer. But I redownload it to the computer and can then sync.

I for the first time since buying my iphone and ipods for almost three years am concedering getting rid of them as I am getting tired of this problem. I can sync anything from my computer to the iphone. I can not sync movies bought on the iphone to my computer. I have tried everything and spent days trying to trouble shoot. I literally have bought hundreds of movies off Itunes but will not buy any thing else until I can figure this problem out. I have uninstalled Itunes reinstalled, troubles shooted using the itunes trouble shooter and reset my phone and nothing works.
When I try to sync from my phone to the computer it says it can not be done because the iphone is not hooked up to the computer. I have only had these problesm since the new update not before. I have bought new cables twice to see if it helped and has not. Both my kids have Ipods, I have a Iphone and was planning on buying two Ipads for the kids for Christmas but not if I can fix this.

You are correct. Syncing should transfer any purchased media, including videos, from your device to your iTunes library provided your computer is authorized for the Apple ID used to make these purchases. You mentioned that you have uninstalled iTunes before, but if you didn't follow this guide exactly, uninstalling iTunes and all of its components in the order specified, it may not have been successful so you should try again: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7.

Modify "sync movie" list.
