Movies will not sync up with Apple TV

Just hooked up this apple tv and am connnected to my wireless connection. I see the device in ITUNES an can select my DVD movies in ITUNES but when selecting sync, nothing happens??

I see the device in ITUNES an can select my DVD movies in ITUNES but when selecting sync, nothing happens?Basically, there are three things that may prevent syncing:
1) iTunes settings
2) Content is in the wrong compression format or uses the wrong profile specifications
3) There is a network problem (signal, settings, or hardware)

My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?

I had the same thing happen to me. It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library". This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty. Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing. Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices. If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
I spent an hour with an Apple Genius. he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system. His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system. I suspect that this won't solve it.
The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue.

New Ipod touch will not sync up with itunes. No error message, it just doesn't sync

I just bought a new 32 gb ipod touch and it will not sync up with my itunes. I don't get an error message or anything like that, it just does not sync up. HELP!

Have you Authorised your Computer...
Open iTunes and from the Menu Bar select Store...
From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.

Hey Oynkus,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You state you updated your iMac to OS X 10.8.5. Did you update iTunes as well?
If so, you may find the calendar sync options under Info.
Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad - iTunes Help
Sync contacts and other info with iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad
Connect your device to your computer.
Click the device button, then click Info.
Select the items you want to sync.
Click Apply.
Take care,

When syncing iTunes with Apple TV (1st gen) some songs and movies will not sync..

I get the message that these songs and movies are not authorized to play on this computer. The computer is authorized and the songs and movies will play on the computer but will not sync to Apple TV
Any advice is aproeciated.

Thanks for the reply WC
Yes they do.
They origialnally played just fine. I moved my entire iTunes library to a new computer and now only 62 songs, out of over 2000, and two of four movies won't sync. All songs and movies are in same folders and same format.
I already selected "keep iTunes media folder organized" and "copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library"
using iTunes 10.7 and OSX 10.8.2

ITunes will not sync podcasts with iPod touch

I've tried just about everything I know and consulted the internet, but I cannot get iTunes to sync my podcasts with my iPod Touch. It will sync my music, but it simply will not sync any of my podcasts. It must be something simple, but I've exhausted my knowledge on this issue. It worked fine on my desktop, but when I tried to move it over to my laptop, it just wouldn't work, no matter what I try. Call me an idiot or whatever you need to do if this is something stupid, but please, help me get my podcasts back!

There's a good guide here on how to roll back to 10.7 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4559563?tstart=0

Imported Movies will not Sync

I have imported many movies to my iTunes and have not had any trouble syncing them to my ipod and watching them. They are all .mp4 types. I do, however, have two movies that will not sync to my ipod and I can not see any reason for this. If anyone has any ideas, I would certainly like to hear them.
thanks,
Charles

while the iPod is connected to itunes, control-click on its name in the source list on the left. click Reset Warnings. try another sync with the movies you want selected. you should get a warning that says either something like this: "There is not enough room on the iPod to sync all selected material. please remove some items." or something like this: "the format of the videos is not supported by the iPod" if it says the first one, do option 1. if it is the second one, do option 2. if it is neither of them, i don't have any ideas.
1.The iPod doesn't have enough space on it to fit all of the video. you have to take someting off the ipod to put anything more on.
2. you need to select the movies in iTunes, then go to the advanced menu and click Create iPod/iPhone Version, or Convert for iPod or iPhone, whichever appears. that will make a copy of the videos in a format that the ipod can read. you can remove the original copy from your library. you can keep the files if you want. now just select the new ones and sync them. everything should work.

Videos/movies will not sync

So I have about 6 or 7 videos in my Itunes, I know one for usre is :Itunes" compatible as I downloaded it in that format, however they will not sync to my 120gb Ipod. I've re-set my ipod, I've removed the vids and put them back in. but they will not work. Any ideas?

Hello BigSky132,
So some of these videos were purchased from the iTunes store and others were imported into your library from elsewhere correct?
For the imported videos, have you tried using the iTunes built in converter to convert the videos to the most iPod friendly format? To do this locate the videos in iTunes, highlight them, and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version" from the Advanced drop down menu. Once the videos have finished converting, try resyncing the newly converted version to your iPod to see if that helps.
For the downloaded video, are you sure you aren't trying to sync the HD version instead of the SD one? Is it an actual movie, tv show, or some other type of video?
How do you have your iPod set up to sync videos? Do you have the option ticked to have your iPod set up to sync all checked songs and videos from under your iPod's Summary tab in iTunes? If so, make sure these videos have tick marks next to them in iTunes.

ITunes will not sync Photos with iPad

iTunes 11.1.5 will not sync photos from iPhoto 9.5.1 to an iPad running IOS 7.1.1....
The sync will not complete it just spins forever on 'importing photos'.... I have always selected Sync photos from 'iPhoto' and 'Selected albus,s, Events and Faces.... I typically only sync around 20 photos between the two but now iTunes will not add photos to the iPad nor delete photos from the iPad....
Since these photos were added with iTunes I can not manually delete them from the iPad....
If I deselect 'Sync Photo from iPhoto' the sync will complete but the photos are not deleted from the iPad....
I suspect that iTunes may be looking for a previous release of iPhoto (since the photo library was 'upgraded' to iPhoto 9.5.1 so it just seems logical that iTunes may not be recognizing the new and improved iPhoto library??
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
John Jones

The photos won't get lost.
You don't sync photos to the computer using iTunes.
Import them to the computer like you would with any camera.
Then delete them from the iPad and re-add them using iTunes. This gets them out of the camera roll.
See this -> iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
