Movies NOT syncing. Help!

Please help!
I've got about seven movies in my iTunes library, some digital downloads and a few purchased from iTunes. My PC is authorized. My syncing is set to sync only selected music and videos. Before the latest version of iTunes, I never had any issues syncing them to my iPhone 4 and my iPad. Now, when I check a movie to add it to the devices, the disk meter does not move and the movies do not sync. I am able to sync one of the movies -- Jack*ss 3D -- but none of my other movies will sync to my devices.
If I check "Manually manage music and movies," I am able to drag and drop the movies from my library to the device and sync them that way. I do not like this option, however, because it does not automatically sync my music library when manual management is turned on. What I want is to be able to simply check or uncheck the movies I want to add or remove from my iPhone/iPad. Is this too much to ask?

Why are some of my movies not syncing while others are? All of my movies are in m4v form, and some of them sync but some of them don't.

Why are some of my movies not syncing while others are? All of my movies are in m4v form, and some of them sync but some of them don't. Also, when i try to play my movies on my mac AND ipod, some of my movies just randomly freeze and wont let me continue watching. I dont understand why its doing this.

ITunes Store movie not syncing because login could not be verified

I bought a movie from the i tunes Store. When I sync with my ATV the movie does not sync. An information icon appears, and when I click on the icon it says that my movie could not sync because the ATV could not verify my login. The message suggest that I make sure that my ATV can connect to the internet.
My ATV is connected to the router and it can see all the computers on my network. I checked the router logs and the requests from the ATV ip address were allowed. However, I still cannot sync the purchased movie from the i tunes store.
I would be very grateful for any help.

Thanks for the help. But unfortunately it did not fix the problem.
Just as a note. I first synced my ATV with another itunes, on a different computer. Then I switched to the itunes on the current computer. My next step is to reset the ATV to the factory settings then try again.
Any more advice would be appreciated.

I have connected a company iPhone to iTunes and it will not sync, help please!

My company have several iPhones which are setup through the same iTunes account but when you connect them to the pc it will not sync. I need to update them and load the latest software as they are still running on very old software. Help would be much appreciated!

Is this the computer to which they normally sync? If not... save yourself some hassle.
iDevices are designed to sync to only one computer/library. Attempts to sync to another computer/library will wipe all content. Upgrading the device requires a backup prior to the update which will remove all content if this is not the computer they normally sync with.

HT1692 iPhone shows duplicate contacts and categories and will not sync. help

Contacts are not syncing, iphone has duplicates in contacts and groups and I don't seam to be able to over-ride or replace duplicates.
Have any Ideas?

That's usually a USB timing error. I would unplug the phone and replug it in, also try different USB ports and cords if you've got 'em. Make sure your iTunes program is up to date as well

TS1474 i phone i pad touch and not syncing - help

I had to replace my I phone yesterday due to hardware issues, which was fine, I cam home restored all my stuff, but it wouldn't restore my music, I didn't worry as the PC i ahve been using is ver very old and getting really sklow So i decided to change to my laptop. Set up I tunes fine on laptop but I can't transfer my library from my I pod touch, I transfered my purchases but the rest won't transfer. My i phone is also not syncing even if I tell it to it runs through the procedure but doesn't add the music. Any clues? Please

What have you tried?
What happens?
Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with content form the new computer. Make sure you have copied everything from the old computer to the new one first.

Ipod classic will not sync, help me!

Running OSX 10.6.8
Macbook 2,1
Itunes 10.6.3
160gb Ipod classic not sure which generation
The ipod appears empty in Itunes, I sync my entire library of music and all podcasts, it appears to sync normally and after the sync is complete, i eject the ipod. I unplug the ipod and under music it says: "no music", under podcasts: "no podcasts". nothing has synced at all. BUT, under the settings tab in the ipod, it is showing an amount of space about the size of my music collection under the category of "other". Curiouser curiouser...
OH, I should mention, I tried unchecking the "sync entire library" option and chose only a single album to sync, it worked! but when i try the entire library, i can't get it to work.
I have restored the ipod several times and retried the sync repeatedly. I have reinstalled Itunes, I have even reinstalled OSX! but nothing seems to work. If it were completely dead, I would just buy a new one, but it fires up, syncs and the whole shebang yet, it remains empty.
I also entered the diagnostic interface on the ipod and nothing seemed to be wrong but, I have no idea what the normal ipod parameters are and have nothing by which to compare the results...
help me

Try to connect the iPod Classic to your Macbook, using another USB port, it looks like a shared USB bus, is causing timeouts, and failing to finalised the iPod filesystem writes.
My Suggestions
Do the iPod Disk Diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem, but helps in troubleshooting.
Especially if the hardisk is dying and causing delays in writing data to the clusters.

Books and Movies not Synced to iPhone

I used to sync some PDFs from my PC (iTunes) to my iPhone 3GS and there was no issues.
However, after I run the sync today, the PDFs are disappear on my phone. They are still in my iTunes' LIBRARY->Books. All checked.
During the sync process, I can see the PDFs are being copied to the phone. But in my phone's iBooks, there is nothing.
Same situation when I try to sync a movie clip to my phone.
I added the movie clip (mp4) into the library, it appears in my iTunes' LIBRARY->Movies, checked.
But when I launch the player on my phone, there is no content (I do not have any other song on my phone).
Any idea?

My problem is similar. I had a few dozen songs I'd bought over the years that showed up this morning as "ringtone eligible". Then I bought two new ones. Everything downloaded correctly. Then I realized that I couldn't 'edit' the ringtone because my laptop's sound ports don't work any more, so I copied the two new songs to a Mac at work, and "authorized" that Mac to play the songs. That all worked fine, but suddenly the ringtone icon was gone from the newly downloaded songs. Then, when I looked at my laptop on the adjoining desk, ALL the ringtone icons had disappeared from my previously purchased songs and the two new ones. Now I can't find any way to get the ringtone icons back, and therefore I can't make any ringtones at all (even though I had dozens of eligible songs only moments before!). I also noticed that, on the laptop, there is an icon in the left-hand list for Ringtones (under Music, iTunes Store, etc.) but on the desktop computer (running the exact same version of iTunes - 7.4.1 (2)) there is no such icon. The songs play on both computers, but there are no ringtone icons anywhere (the column is visible, but empty). Any ideas?

Movies not syncing??

Just got a 4th generation nano, music syncs just fine. Movies are showing up fine in the library, it says the sync is complete, but they're not there. Any ideas, anyone?
Thank you in advance.

Here is an Apple article on the process:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1708
I would suggest you check your settings for the iPod in iTunes. To do this, open iTunes while the iPod is connected. Then notice the tabs. You will see one titled Movies and another titled TV Shows. In each, you get options to sync shows. Do that, then click the Apply button in the lower right.

Home movies (*.mov) not syncing?

I've got a bunch of home movies, all in *.mov format, that refuse to sync to my AppleTV (1st gen). Some were shot with a digital camcorder, some were shot with my iPhone 4. All of them play just fine in iTunes on my Mac, but they won't sync to the ATV.
What's more annoying is that I have a bunch of home movies in the exact same format that are already synced up and play just fine; just seems to be the last dozen or so that won't appear in the play list.
Anybody have any idea what's going on here?

Not as simple as that. Just because it plays in iTunes doesn't mean it will play on apple tv. Have a look at the compatible specs below.
1. H.264 and protected H.264 (from iTunes Store): Up to 5 Mbps, Progressive Main Profile (CAVLC) with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 1280 by 720 pixels at 24 fps, 960 by 540 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
2. iTunes Store purchased video: 320 by 240 pixels, 640 by 480 pixels, 720 by 480 pixels (anamorphic), or high-definition 720p
3. MPEG-4: Up to 3 Mbps, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps (maximum resolution: 720 by 432 pixels at 30 fps) in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats

Home movies not syncing with ATV

I have created some home movies in iMovie. I export them to iTunes. Then, in iTunes, i convert them to ATV. So now, in iTunes, i see 1) the movies i bought from iTunes, and 2) my home movies that i exported and converted. but the problem is that on ATV, i only see the movies i bought, and not the home movies.

Streaming content will not be available on the tv if itunes isn't running, which is one way you could tell if you are syncing or streaming.
Before something can be sent to the tv it needs to be checked. When I say checked I mean in the main itunes window next to it's name (i.e. to check a specific movie, select movies from the library list in the top left hand box in the window. Find your movie in the list in the main window and tick the checkbox to the left of the movies name).

Only one movie not syncing?

Hi there. New to atv and love it so far. It's working quite well and only one HD download took about 45 mins but all others were less then 1 min. I have run across one problem, I use Custom Sync, which has worked great. I was watching 1 movie on my ipod touch and then transferred it back to itunes and then checked it to be sync'd to atv so I could watch the rest on widescreen. The issue it it won't sync onto atv. I have even checked the sync all in movies and it works for all movies except for this one. There's nothing different about this movie. I'm sure this is a user problem and there's something I'm not doing - any ideas?? Thanks!

Thanks for clarifying how the downloads work. I've only had my atv for a week now so it is all quite new. As for the movie, it's a purchase so I'm likely not using the "transfer" term correctly. Sorry about that! The only difference with this movie and my others was that I originally had it on my ipod touch so I didn't bother syncing it to my atv when I first set it all up. I don't think I stream anything to atv and I can't see anything except for the content that I have custom sync'd over. I only see the content I sync and I do not have the "Only show content that is sync'd" checked. Not sure why this is but everything works so I am happy either way. Just this one movie….can't figure out what I am doing wrong.

My apps are NOT syncing - HELP!!!

I have 7.02 on both my iPad and iPhone. I have Mavericks GM on my Macbook Pro. I download an app on my iPad and despite having the configuration for automatically downloading apps on my iOS devices, it is not being downloaded to my iPhone. Nor does it show up in iTunes when syncing my iPad with a cable to iTunes.
Essentially, no apps are syncing across my devices.
All other iCloud syncing appears to be working as expected.
I have two accounts, one for iTunes purchases and one for iCloud.
This has worked in the past but since iOS 7, it has died.
Thanks in advance for all the help.

If this is a Mavericks issue you'll have to ask your question in the Developer forums.

I bought a new computer and want to move (not sync) everything to my new system - bookmarks, add-ons, etc. How do I do this? I've done it before, but I can't find it anymore

I've done this before, but now I can't even find an export function. I am on version 9.0.1 on Windows 7. Has this capability been eliminated? I don't want to sync, as I won't be using the old computer any more, and I don't want all of my information out on someone else's server, no matter how secure it's supposed to be. Help?

Some mp4 movies not syncing after conversion

I converted some movies to mp4 and they used to sync perfectly and I could watch them fine. Now only some of the old ones sync but some give the error. 'cannot be played on ipod'. If i convert a movie now it plays fine. Am i missing an option as i don't understand why some movies converted in the same batch don't work now and some do . They are all mp4.

I have the same problems! Hope Apple will fix it very soon.
