Movies don't appear on iPod

Hi,
When I upload movies to my iPod, they don't appear. They even don't appear in iTunes. When I click on the movies-icon, iTunes doesn't show the files, but does show the space for movies used on the iPod.
I hope someone can help me with this strange problem.

I have the same problem, I have the iPod 60GB, all my Movies and tv shows are now in the music list, this is the 3rd time it happens... I had to use an external program to extract all my movies from the ipod,then copy them back to the itunes library, erase the movies that are in the music list, and it's just ridiculous that i have to do this every time...
find the program, iPod Access... thats what i used

  • Photos and movies don't appear in Events/Photos but do appear in Last 12 months

    Hello. I'm using the latest version of iPhoto 11 (9.1.1). When I browse through my photos via the Events or Photos section of the iPhoto sidebar (under Library), certain photos and movies are missing. They simply don't appear there at all. However, when I click the "Last 12 Months" section of the iPhoto sidebar (under Recent), the photos and movies are there. If I try re-importing the missing photos and movies I'm told they are duplicates, so they must be in my iPhoto Library - they just refuse to show up under Events or Photos! I've tried ticking all the rebuild options by holding down command and option when I start iPhoto, but to no avail. Perhaps there's a setting I've inadvertently ticked that hides certain photos and movies? Hidden Photos is ticked under the View menu. I have View > Sort Photos set to "By date" / "Ascending".
    Thanks for all your help!
    Cheers,
    Greg

    since both last 12 months and events or photos are simply different views of the same photos in your library they are there - the most common issue is incorrect dates so you are looking in the wrong event - you can find the event by selecting the photo in the last 12 months view and and right clicking and using the show event command - you can correct the dates by selecting the photo and using the photos menu ==> adjust time/date command

  • Rented movies don't appear in Front Row

    There are archived posts on this from a year ago but nothing recent. I use a projector with a Mac for a home entertainment system and Front Row works well most of the time.
    I just downloaded a rented movie which then appear in the Rented Movies folder of iTunes. When I start Front Row purchased movies appear in the Movies list but there is no sign of the rented movie. Front Row does not seem to be able to play rented movies. If this is the case then there is no point in me renting movies because I need to play them in iTunes, which gives poorer quality ("full screen" mode actually reduces the picture size to about one quarter of the screen).
    iTunes 8.2.1, Front Row 2.1.7

    I can play rented movies from iTunes on my iMac G5 screen but, as I reported, in "full screen" mode it is a quarter size - maybe a G5 quirk
    Again, I would recommend you post in the iTunes forum. My iTunes does NOT display differently. You may be right, it may be a G5 thing, but you should find out for sure.
    My solution is simple - I will not be renting any more movies from the iTunes Store.
    You are not the first to request the ability to view rented iTunes movies in Front Row here in the Apple Discussions. I would suggest you send feedback to Apple. They do keep track of the requests:

  • Songs Transferred from ITUNES to IPOD NANO don't appear in IPOD NANO

    Help. I tried to do something simple: add songs to my ipod nano. Though the songs "appear" in the itunes gui when the ipod symbol is selected, I don't see these songs in my ipod when I eject it.
    I have updated itunes (6.0.4.2) and ipod software (1.1.1), and have restored my ipod nano. So with a clean slate, problem still persists. Except now, since I restored my ipod, I have NO songs on it, so it is worthless until I resolve this problem.
    I got this ipod nano at Christmas and was able to load it with songs (eventually) back in January. So I have a feeling that a software update is screwing me up.
    It is as if the itunes doesn't properly transfer the songs into the ipod, even though it appears to do so in the itunes gui.
    Thank you for your help.

    MORE INFORMATION:
    I tried various ways to transfer songs into the itunes ipod icon: from library, from playlist, even tried transferring playlist. In all situations, the transferred songs appear within the ipod icon as they should, but ipod doesn't show these songs when ejected. It's as if there is a missing "burn ipod" step or something.
    I tried installing older itunes software, but it wouldn't let me because I had a new version. I didn't want to uninstall my current version for fear of wiping out my entire library.
    I am not ready to take this step yet. I am hoping apple has a fairly simple solution.

  • IPhoto '11 movies don't appear.

    I've got one: I maintain several iPhoto libraries based on what I'm working on. My default library is not on the startup volume. When I launch iMovie, I see an icon for iPhoto Videos as a child of the Startup Volume. Clicking on the icon causes iMovie to crash.
    There seems no way to help iMovie know where my selected iPhoto videos live. I have thought about creating a symlink to the Masters directory inside the startup volume's iPhoto package; but, I'm concerned about really freaking iMovie out and I don't know if the icon is pointing to a location or what. Besides, iMovie should know where the current iPhoto library lives, no?

  • Address Book "Groups" and "Smart Groups" don't appear on iPod Touch

    In Address Book I have some 200 contacts (cards) and I've started making groups manually and also using Smart Groups.
    The contacts are all there-- WELL WAIT-- I'm not there! ME-- My contact card is not listed in iPod!
    ALSO: none of my GROUPS or SMART GROUPS are listed! Why not?
    OK appreciate any comments.
    Steve

    OK so I guess I have to solve my own problems...
    ...seems that if you delete and re-do the GROUPS in Address Book, then they do appear.
    As to "Smart Groups"-- seems they never appear on the iPod Touch.
    Other comments or info appreciated.

  • Mov files on iTunes (under movies) don't appear on Apple TV menu

    I have multiple movies in MOV format, only two of which appear in the Apple TV menu under computers- movies and cannot get the other movies to appear on the screen in spite of their listing under iTunes as MOV files. Suggestions anyone?
    Scott

    MOV is simply the container, what's inside also counts. You have to make sure it is fully compatible.

  • International languages don't appear on iPod

    In iTunes I have songs named in Hebrew but when I view those songs on iPod their names are blank. Are there any plans to have future firmware supposed non-English characters such as Hebrew?

    The iPod doesn't officially support the Hebrew language but there is this:

  • Synced Photos don't appear on my 2G iPod touch

    Hi,
    Here is my problem. I own since 3 years an iPod touch 2G which I use a lot. I use to sync 4-5 recent photo albums from my iPhoto Library on it but since few days, photos don't appear on the Photos App in the iPod neither the bottom bar to navigate between events and others sortings.
    Everythings seems to works fine when I sync it. The problem appears on the synced iPod. Only saved images remain.
    That's sure a big loss in my use of the device. I use to show people recent pictures that I carry on my iPod touch often.
    Regards,
    Dragonrouge

    Are they configured to still sync to your iPod Touch from under the iPod's Photos tab in iTunes?  See this article for more information and assistance.

  • Changes made on iPod don't appear when connected to iTunes

    Long story short, iTunes doesn't like it when I make changes through my iPod, and tries to "fix" them.
    If I delete a song or make changes to a playlist through the iPod itself, that change doesn't show up in iTunes. Deleted songs will be unplayable, but still appear. Newly created playlists may or may not appear. Deleted playlists are still there. Songs added to a playlist don't appear in the playlist, songs deleted from a playlist still appear in the playlist.
    If I make a change to my iPod through iTunes itself, it reflects that change on my iPod, but also reverts any changes I've made through the iPod (so, if I remove a song from a playlist through my iPod, then connect to iTunes and remove a song from a playlist through iTunes, the song I removed through iTunes will be removed from my iPod, but the song I removed through my iPod will reappear). It will also occasionally re-load songs I've deleted entirely, though they'll be greyed out and unplayable.
    As you may imagine, this is really annoying.
    I have all types of automatic syncing turned off, and I don't store any music in iTunes itself once it's been put on my iPod.
    I just want iTunes to show me what is on my iPod right now, and not revert back to whatever image it seems to have stored of my iPod when I try to make changes through iTunes. Does anyone have a fix for this?

  • .m4V files don't appear in iTunes until played from iTunes' 'Movies' folder

    Some .m4v camcorder movie files (from a recent .avi conversion using Handbrake) just don't appear in my iTunes 'Movies' library until I double-click on them in the iTunes 'Movies' folder. Handbrake did the batch conversion and placed the converted files in the iTunes 'Movies' folder.
    All of the converted files are visible in that 'Movies' folder of iTunes. And when I double-click them they play in an iTunes window. iTunes 'Movies' section seems unable to display them until they have first been played from the iTunes 'Movies' folder. Am I missing something about the way iTunes handles .m4v files?
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem? Any idea what the issue might be?
    Thanks.

    Problem.
    I just tried turingtest2's suggestion and it didn't work.
    I converted an H264 .mov file in Handbrake and output the conversion to the 'Automatically Add to iTunes' folder. But it was not added to iTunes - it ended up in the 'Not Added' folder and remained there until I played it from that location. Then it immediately turned up in iTunes 'Movies' folder.
    The Handbrake conversion was to an 'Apple TV' compatible .m4v file.
    Any idea what the problem might be?

  • HT1535 I would like to move my songs from my ipod nano back on to my freshly reinstalled windows and iTunes.  Can that be done?  I turned off automatic syncing so I can charge up the ipod.

    I would like to move my songs from my ipod nano back on to my freshly reinstalled windows and iTunes.  Can that be done?  I turned off automatic syncing so I can charge up the ipod.  Help!

    You won't be able to, just by navigating out the iPod's photos folder in iTunes. You'll likely need the help of some sort of third party software to get the job done for you.  One thing you'll want to keep in mind about these photos is that they are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnail versions that were optimized for viewing on your iPod's Video smaller 2.5" LCD display.

  • I purchased a movie, i selected it to sync, i watched itunes copy to my ipod, it shows up in itunes under "on this ipod", but does not appear on ipod under videos app.

    to recap:
    i purhased a movie (SD version of Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone) through the itunes store.
    in itunes, under my ipod, i checked next to movie to indicate that i wanted it to sync
    in itunes, when i checked the movie, the amount of space for video grew, as expected
    i sync'ed my ipod,
    i watched the progress bar as itunes told me it was copying the movie
    no errors were reported
    in itunes, under the "On this iPod" the movie says it's there
    in itunes
    on my ipod, under video, i do not see the movie
    when i search my ipod for "harry" nothing come up
    kinda feeling like i just threw $9.99 in the trash.
