Movie Wont Sync? - iTunes Slider Backwards?

I am trying to sync a movie that i purchased on iTunes last year. Every time i connect my phone the box is checked but never shows up in my phone. On top of that now when uncheck the box for the movie is INCREASES my memory storage slider at the bottom of iTunes. Anybody seen this happen before? I have tried multiple iPhones still same issue, the movie will not sync.

Thanks for that info. I will check into that. She "told" me she bought it, but maybe she did rent it instead. I am not sure which iPod she has, only sure that it is a video iPod. Its her first Mac and panics at the first sign of any problem even if it isnt one<g>
Thank you
Bob

  • Movies wont Sync (correct format, plenty of space)

    Hi everyone,
    I am having troubles sync my movies. Since I updated the latest itunes version I cant do it anymore.
    I used to simply grab the file and drag it into my ipad on itunes but now it will stay grey with a dotted circle.
    The format is mp4, I have enough space, it will show up on my ipad (on itunes) but will stay gray with a dotted circle next to it and wont sync.
    I tried by sync manually, automatically and WiFi. Still no response.
    Running out of options, if someone could help I will be very thankful!
    Best Wishes!
    pd. It is an Ipad 2, iTunes on a Windows Laptop

    What Troubleshooting Steps have you tried ?

  • Yep, I am still using iphone 3, but email wont sync, itunes wont find it

    But since Feb 18 or so, my iphone 3 cannot add new email accounts, and existing email accounts cannot sync to get new email any more, even when wifi is active.
    Also, my iphone 3 can no longer be recognized by itunes any more.
    Did Apple do some trick to block older iphones, such as mine, to work?

    ok....itunes now recognizes my iphone 3, that was due to a bad connection.
    But still, emails wont sync.  When adding gmail account, after a pause, it will come back and say, Cannot Connect Using SSL (Do you want to try setting up the account without SSL?)

  • Movies wont sync to my 30 gb video ipod Someone PLz Help me

    I have had my 30 gig video ipod since they came out. everything is up to date(My ipod software and itunes software). Whenever i sync my ipod it says that the movies couldnt sync to it because they are not playable on it.
    I think my ipod is a fifth gen. but then why won't the movies sync. Plz can someone help me.
    Ipod 30gig video   Windows 2000   Idk if it is a fifth gen.

    plug in your ipod, let it automatically update, when it's finished, go to the category (TV Shows, Movies, etc) you want to go to. Select Sync All, the select the option of "Selected" (do not check mark "all") and choose what you want added to your Ipod, then go to file and Sync your Ipod. I had the same problem and this was successful for me.

  • PURCHASED MOVIES WONT SYNC WITH NANO

    ok first off earlier today i received a gift card in which i used to purchase 2 movies off of itunes.but 4 some reason i get the same message over and over again saying im sorry these files cannot be placed on ur ipod.at first i thought it was a new update or my ipod*which is new* but i had some spare vids on my comp in which i used to test and it turned out that every 1i used, worked. and ive been trying to contact apple rep's through some numbers i found and the lady i got basically blew me off and after that no one else picked up.........so ummmm yeah basically what im saying is HELP

    What is meant by "cant seem to get any of my songs from my nano on to my i tunes account"?  This makes no logical sense.
    All of your content should be in iTunes on the computer.
    Connect the device.
    Select the content desired to sync.
    Sync.

  • Rental Movie wont sync

    ok so i rented 2 different movies. i looked it up and my ipod classic 30 GB can have movie rental synced to it. but when i try to sync it to my ipod, it says it cannot be played on my ipod and the video format isnt able to play on my ipod. what is blocking or preventing movies going on there? if it is the format, how do i change it and find out what the current format is?
    Message was edited by: pittspeng

    Yes, there is a 30 gig iPod and no, it's not a Classic. The Classic is the most recent generation of conventional iPods and only comes, as the previous poster stated, in 80 and 160 gig models.

    It sounds as if what you have is the 30 gig iPod with Video, also know as a 5th generation iPod. They don't support rental movies. Sorry.

  • IPhone 3G music wont sync iTunes closes

    Ever since I updated my iPhone 3G to iOS 4.2.1 I cannot sync any of my music. My apps all sync but as soon as iTunes begins to sync music I get the message "iTunes has encountered a problem and has to close", and then sure enough it closes. Anyone have any information on this problem?

    Okay so here is the latest. After the apple support line asked me to restore the iphone once more time I got a message telling me that the SIM card could not be read. Once that message popped up the apple rep told me to go to the AT&T store and get a new SIM card. I got a new card and still no sync. I created another account on my Mac as suggested above and immediately it asked me to register my iPhone. The problem is that all my data is not in that new profile but know I know that it must be some preference that is not allowing me to sync. Ive deleted all the plist files I have found associated with iTunes but no luck. Is there a iphone plist? Any ideas out there?

  • Itunes 9.2, ipod touch 2g 8gb, ios 4, Wont sync, itunes doesnt recognize

    Ive been through 100s of help sites and discussions, none of which have matched my issue. I have an Ipod Touch, 8GB 2g. Just bought it not too long ago. I updated to iTunes 9.2 (Please note my 3.1.3 firmware loaded itouch worked on itunes 8.2 but not the updated 9.2). Here's the issue. Whenever I connect my itouch to itunes, it doesnt give me any errors. Infact, on the left pane under devices, it shows my ipod, but the only right click options I have are "Eject". In the right pane, in the center of a big white space, it says "iPod" and thats all. There's no restore/update/backup sync buttons nothing. There's NOTHING. Ive tried putting into recovery mode. Ive tried updating to iOS4. Ive tried putting it into recovery mode in iOS4, still nothing. Same issues... and now after updating to iOS4 im stuck in "Connect to iTunes" on my ipod. Cant connect my ipod to my other computer with itunes 8.2 Its Horrible. What do I do now?

    i'm encountering the same problem. just bought my ipod touch 4g  32G a couple of days ago. it took a long time for my itunes to recognize the new device & when it did i got an error msg saying that it won't sync. im running on 7 ultimate too. i've tried restoring it to no avail. i tried unplugging/re-plugging it from the port but it will still not show up in itunes. i've tried disabling the firewall & enhanced usb just as it was suggested in other help forums & still no luck. (i'm no computer savvy so i just rely on the help forums...its a hit or miss thing) i hope there's a kind soul who would be able to help me/us who are stuck in this issue.

  • HT1386 itunes recognizes my ipod but wont sync. I have just done a system restore.

    After system restore, ipod wont sync. itunes recognizes my device but sync starts and then abruptly stops.

    Are you still signed into your Apple ID on the iPod? Just noticed that you have the iPod classic. Maybe you would be better off posting elsewhere. Try here.

  • Purchased movie from Itunes wont sync with Iphone but rental movie will????

    I purchased a movie from Itunes and it shows up in my library movies but it wont sync with my iphone. Before I bought the movie i rented a movie to make sure it works and I liked the format so I know that it can auto sync with the iphone. In they Sync section of Itunes under videos it only has 2 headings. Rental movies and TV shows. There is no option for Movies at all so it does not even come up to transfer it over to the phone like with the rental.
    I have solved the problem temporarily but would love help on a proper fix. If I check the box manual merge music and videos on the summary page I can get the movie over by dragging it from the library and dropping it into the phone but it still does not show up under the video tab but is on the phone. This then deletes all my music and I have to manually sync that as well.
    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am using a mac book with an iphone and a move in Itunes that I actually paid for - from itunes. I just cant figure it!
    Natalie

    I think the layout in sync could be improved for movies perhaps putting Purchased Movies right after Rental Movies. When I am on that tab, Rental Movies (I have none and it tells me so) and then TV shows are visible on the screen with lots of blank space under. I had to scroll down to find the movie sync option (which may seem pretty obvious - but with all the white space after TV shows, I didn't notice that the scroll bar had room to scroll further). Yes, I feel a little stupid (and grateful to you for making the solution so obvious), but I do think the tab layout contributed to my ineptness.

  • I tryed to download a movie off of itunes and it downloaded but wont sync into my ipod

    i downloaded a movie off of itunes and it downloaded but wont sync it says the ipod is synced with another itunes library do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library .an ipod can be synced with only one itunes library at a time erasing and syncing replaces the contense of this ipod with the contense with this itunes library does that mean that if i sync the movie it will erase everything on the ipod and only put the movie and if it does can i put it back on with the movie still on it

    You can do it by manually managing music and videos. See:
    iOS: Issues syncing content with multiple computers using iTunes
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar.
    To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions

  • Movies i bought from the itunes store and they wont sync to my ipod

    I had bought an ipod for my daughters birthday n i had purchased several movies from the itunes store and they downloaded n they show up in my library n wheni check them to sync to her ipod....it shows a pop up block that says that it cannot be copied to this ipod cause it is not supportrd by this ipod.  my baby is really wanting to use it n I downloaded the itunes 10 & updated her ipod software to 4.3.3 i  think that i did all the necessary updated and downloads now what do i do...i've been on this comp eversince 11:00am this morning and it is still now 1:29am....i dont know....if anyone has any suggestions..they r welcomed

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • I've had a problem with syncing itunes, when i sync it dosent sync songs previously deleted it just greys them out, which is great but if i want to add a new video or song from my computer it wont sync it will just grey out and wont play. now all my songs

    ive had a problem syncing with itunes recently. when i delete a song on my iphone when i sync with my computer it still syncs but just greys out and is rendered useless. thats great unless i when i want to add new music or videos from my pc to my iphone it wont sync and will just grey out. i looked for solutions and one said that deleteing all your music from the usage in settings would fix it, well now when i sync all of my music is greyed out. ive tried adding all of my songs manually into my ipod instead of syncing entire library and nothing. (also when i select to sync music nothing shows up in the usage bar (normally 3 gigs)  might help) could someone please help?

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!
