Movie made with iPad2 does not sync from PC to iPad2. Why?

Hi All,
I take my iPad2 and I make a 20 second movie in HD quality. I connect it to my Windows PC and with Windows Explorer I go to my iPad, locate the movie file and copy it to my desktop.
Then, I pick it up from my desktop, drag it to iTunes and drop it on my still connected iPad. This would effectively transfer the video to 'Videos' on the iPad as opposed to the photo album.
iTunes reports that the file cannot be sync'ed because my iPad2 is not capable of playing the file.
WT*?????? This video is created by my iPad2. Surely I must be able to play it back?
Can anyone clarify why this is?
With regards to the why of this procedure: this relates to making videos myself and wanting to watch them on my iPad. There are loads of posts about that, but most of them relate to external videos being sync'ed to the pad. I am experiencing this problem straight with iPad movies themself.
BTW: In the previous version of iTunes (I just upgraded to 10.5) this was no problem at all. Apple, please fix this.

SOLVED.
Some people are só quick to reply, even offline.
iTunes 10.5 no longer has Quicktime on board and therefor iTunes *thinks* that your iPad can no longer play it's own video's.
Solution: install Quicktime, reboot (just to be sure) and copy your movie files to your pad. Works like a charm, but isn't that error message from iTunes just a little bit incorrect?

  • My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

    My iPad and iPhone have the same syncing calendar but my Windows 7 PC with iCloud does not sync/show the same calendar...please help!

    iCloud will not sycn a calendar from an external source.  In order to use iCloud to sync it, you would have to move it to iCloud and stop using Google.  I know how to do that on a Mac, but I'm not sure how to do it on a PC.  If you're using Outlook, I suspect you export it as an .ics file to your desktop, then import it to the iCloud account in Outlook.  I'm sure you could use Google to find the specific steps.
    However, there's really no reason not to just use Google to sync your calendar across your devices.  Instead, just continue to use Goole calendar on all your devices and they should stay in sync.  Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0Jj0KFgbYI.

  • My iCloud is set up and seems to work. However, a newly added contact does not sync from the Macbook to the iphone and iPad. What am I doing wrong?

    My iCloud is set up and seems to work. However, a newly added contact does not sync from the Macbook to the iphone and iPad. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, txstan

    Apparantly it is, On My Mac contacts don't appear in iCloud, anywhere.
    Put all your contacts on all of your devices in iCloud (assuming that's where you want them to be)
    Go to www.icloud.com, login and see what you actually have in the account.

  • "Related Names" Does Not Sync From Apple Address Book to iOS 4 Address Book

    I keep a very detailed address book and have just realized that the "related names" field does not sync from my Mac to my iPhone.  Does anyone know if this is a limitation of the iTunes syncing and the software, or am I doing something wrong?  If this is a limitation, does anyone know a work around?  This is important information for me to have on the go.

    Oops -- I just had to turn iCloud on in the System settings on the iPhone, then the Contacts synched.

  • Why Apple does not support from Iran? And why not open a store in Iran?

    Why Apple does not support from Iran? And why not open a store in Iran?

    You think this is an injustice?
    I think that injustice relates to rights that are not honored or respected, and I think we can agree that in no circumstance, human, civil, political or legal, is having or owning an Apple ID, or any other consumer item, a right.
    Why should this happen? ...Iraq ... Afghanistan....
    I believe that Apple, and most American companies, would love to have access to every market in the world, and Iran certainly (or at least, potentially) represents a larger market for Apple products than many countries in which they do business. So, given the choice, they'd be there.

  • Calendar does not sync from iPhone to iCloud

    Calendar events that I create, update, or delete on my iPhone do not sync to iCloud, Mac, and iPad. I have deleted and added my calendar on my iPhone and reset my iPhone a few times but still calendar doesn't seem to sync to iCloud. Could you please help resolve this? Thanks.

  • HT5868 I tap "trust", but my device does not sync to my computer. Why?

    I'm trying to sync my iPhone to my computer, and it keeps asking me if I trust the computer. It shouldn't because I've used the same computer to sync my iPhone before. Anyway, when I tap trust, it won't sync with my computer, what I don't understand is why?

    This is happening to me on my iPhone 4S. I have uninstalled iTunes as well and still asking the whole trust thing. My iPod Nano 7th gen. isn't even "authorized" on iTunes and it's been connected before and won't show again, won't even charge when plugged in to my computer...I have a Windows laptop if that matters...is there anything I can do besides uninstalling iTunes AGAIN? Thanks for the question, Tommasso431...

  • Some cover artwork does not sync from iTunes to iPod

    I got the album artwork using the "get artwork" feature, but there are a number of album covers that show up in iTunes, but don't display on my iPod after syncing. Most of the artwork synced ok, but there are a few that for some reason don't display. Suggestions?

    There's a couple of things to try.
    First, highlight all tracks before using Apple's 'get artwork' feature. Most people already do this.
    For really stubborn albums, and I've had a few where there's no logical reason why the album cover doesn't show on the iPod, try removing the offending tracks from the iTunes library (no need to send them to the trash), then locate them and re-import by double clicking on them, and 'get artwork' again, then re-sync.
    Failing that, remove the tracks again, but this time attach the album cover to the track's ID tags directly. You can use something like MediaRage for this. Now the artwork is embedded with the track info and automatically shows in iTunes and the iPod.

  • 'Last Played' date does not sync from ipod to itunes

    Hi, I've looked through the forums and can't find an answer to this, but apologies if this has already been answered elsewhere.
    I'm using itunes 7 with Windows XP and a 20gb 3rd gen ipod. I have a number of smart playlists which are based on the date songs were last played, but recently this hasn't been updated from ipod to itunes. It used to - I'm not sure if the problem has been since I updated to itunes 7 or not, but it might be. Weirdly, the play count - IS updated, so itunes knows that I played the song on my ipod, it just doesn't know when!!
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    David

  • Calendar does not sync from IPad to IMac

    I manually connect Ipad to IMac to sync, but it no longer picks up the new items on my IPad and transfers them to my desktop.  Suggestions please?!

    That facility is no longer available. Use iCloud to sync calendars between iDevices and Mac, etc.

  • When I plug my Ipad2 to my Imac, it does not sync all my photos from my Itunes library. It also splits events and picks what it wants to sync. How do I get all my photos to sync with Ipad2?

    When I sync my Ipad2 with my Imac, it does not sync all the photos. It seems to pick & choose what it wants to sync and also splits events. How can I set it to sync all photos so both libraries are the same?

    Can't help you with the sync problem but the splitting of events was supposedly fixed with the iPhoto 9.1.3 updater.
    This is from the download page:
    This update fixes a problem that could cause some events merged in iPhoto to be split back into multiple events on iOS devices after being synced.
    So update iPhoto to 9.1.3 and re-sync.  If you already have updated to that version then I'm at a loss.
