Music Videos on itunes

I have tons.. of music videos, but i dont know the reason why I cant add the videos to the itunes... in what format do they need to be, and how can I change the format of the videos

Man, i don't know if you have the same problem as I do - but in Itunes I can see a handful of music videos that I've added to itunes in the VIDEOS location but I have no idea how to add them to my IPOD. I know that the videos need to be in a certain format and mine are .mpeg(s) and I don't know if those will work. And if they don't how do I convert them to proper files?

  • Add my own music videos to iTunes

    When i add a music video or an episode of TV show to iTunes, it will always file it under the "Movies" tab. The music videos i buy on iTunes will always be filed under "Music Videos"...i have tried playing around to tag my own music videos as "music Videos" in iTunes with no success..Does anyone know what i have to do to get it to work?!!

    You can set the kind to "Movie" or "Music Video" as follows:
    In the iTunes library find the video and then Right click it / Get Info / Options tab / Video kind and choose.
    It would be nice if there were more choices but this may be enough for you.

  • Hi.. I'm new to mac, I've got a mac book air and time capsule is it possible to save music,video from iTunes Store directly to time capsule leaving my 128GB Mac free? If so  please help..

    You can move your iTunes library.. Apple have explicit instructions to do it. If the library is moved to the TC and accessed over wireless, the efficiency of the whole system will drop dramatically..
    A file you download goes.. Modem---TC--Laptop--Back to TC--Store on disk. Double looping the wireless slows it dramatically..
    As far as using TC for your iTunes.. you CAN.. but SHOULD YOU?
    Store files on the TC.

    This is asked several times a day.. obviously people are struggling with their latest SSD being too small.
    The TC is not suitable for network file server.. but many people having no choice press it into service as such.
    It cannot be partitioned. It was and is and ever shall be a backup device for Time Machine.
    Major issues.
    1. No backup.. no way Time Machine can backup a network drive. No place to backup to.. So all your files will be at risk. And you will need to buy a third party like CCC to do backup.
    2. The TC cannot be partitioned and mixing TM backups and data is not great.
    3. The drive is slow to spin up and quick to spin down.. there is no controls.
    4. iPhoto in particular can easily corrupt its entire library with wireless networking causing a disconnection to one photo. Even if you do this;;; do not move your photo library... you have been warned!!
    5. iTunes will constantly lose connection to the library. The disk is too slow to respond.. itunes on the computer will constantly spit out errors. Even in the midst of streaming the TC can spin down the disk due to caching.
    6. Do not use any live files on the TC no matter what else you do.. if you edit files in whatever program the file must be on the local hard disk.
    7. The only suitable location for most libraries is a computer. You can plug in an external hard disk.

  • Can't dowload music video from iTunes

    Hoping someone can help me.
    I tried downloading a music video from iTunes. I purchased the video, it started downloading and right at the end I got the following message and iTunes just shut down.
    "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close...Please tell Microsoft about this problem..."
    An option to send an error report was also given.
    There is no record that I purchased the video, but yet when I tried to buy the music video again, i got a message saying that had I already purchased it, but i can't find it anywhere in iTunes or in any of my folders in my computer.
    Hope someone can help me out!

    Hmm. It should.
    Here's the main Download support page. There is a form at the bottom if nothing there helps. It may take a while to get a response. Some weeks they get absolutely swamped.

  • I just bought a music video in itunes...

    I just bought a music video in itunes and it doesn't show up in movies, it shows up in music, and then I synced my ipod and it is not on my ipod. How do I get it on there? Thanks!

    Hi Gamer,
    The real thing is music videos are not characterized as a movie file in iTunes system, instead they are known as audio video files, which is why it's added to the music list.
    If you still like the videos to be listed in the 'Movies' section, than you need to do it manually:
    Select the file>>>right click & press "Get Info"....'Options'...."Media Kind"....Check "Movie".
    GOOD LUCK

  • I cant add music videos to itunes library of itunes version 10.7

    I am using itunes version 10.7. I am unable to add music videos into Itunes library. The Movies section remains blank when i select a music video and add it to library.

    Why you open a new thread for questions which where answered already 100 times...and do nou use the search option???
    But quickly:
    1. The IPOD Video needs the right video format
    2. There a dozends of 3rd party SW solutions available to convert almost every format into the IPOD Video compatible format - some of them are freeware - use e.g. Google to find some.

  • How to watch music video in itunes all ready purchased ?

    How to watch music video in itunes all ready purchased ?
    please help me leave me a reply okay:)?????!!

    Hi dantheman302,
    I'm sorry, I'm a bit unclear on your exact question. If you are talking about watching something that you have previously purchased but is no longer in your iTunes Library for whatever reason, you should be able to redownload it from the iTunes Store in most instances. You may find the steps outlined in the following article helpful:

  • Purchased music videos from iTunes but it will not play, no video or sound

  • Updated ipod touch 4g to ios 6 and now my music, video and iTunes U do not work

    I just updated my ipod touch 4th gen to IOS 6 and now if I try to start my music, video, or iTunes U it displays the background for the app on the screen for a while and then returns to the main screen.  I can't access any of the content stored on my iPod except for books downloaded.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Have you tried a hard reset of your device yet? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Otherwise, you may need to connect it to iTunes and restore it from a previous backup and to factory settings after that if necessary.

  • How can I change the media info from Concert Film to Music Video in ITunes 11.01.12

    I purchased a concert film a while back from the ITunes store, and in previous versions of ITunes, I had been able to change the media info from concert film to music video so I could watch it in my library (and any devices) without losing any of my library when I synced my devices (could only have either music, movies or tv shows on device - stupid I know), now with the new version, that option is greyed out, so I can't change anything, is there any way around it?
    Thanks so much!

    When you say "remove his account", do you mean remove his Apple ID as well as all his stuff (music, movies, and whatever else is housed in iTunes)?  If so, delete all his stuff (music, etc.), have him deauthorize the computer (Store > Deauthorize This Computer), and sign out of his account (Store > Sign Out) and then sign in to yours.
    If all you want to do is remove his Apple ID and not fuss with his stuff, then things get more complicated, because you do not own his stuff.

  • Is there a way to disable the itunes video pop up for music videos in itunes 11?

    I'm wondering if there is a way to disable the video window from popping up everytime I change a music video track in itunes in previous versions I always used play in artwork viewer but I accidentally updated and now that option is no longer there.  I use itunes to organize my music collection as I'm a video dj but it's becoming to be a really big pain now with all the videos popping up. Any help would be greatly appreciated

    You can choose to have videos play in the iTunes window, rather than a separate window. Start playback of a video, then right click in the video and choose "Play video in iTunes window"

  • Unable to view music videos in iTunes on mac

    I have iTunes on a G5 Mac Pro It is on the latest version of 10.5 with the most recent update to iTunes. I am unable to view music videos many of which I purchased from the iTMS or came with music CD's as extras some are m4v others are mp4.
    If on import I set the option for format as being Music Video I cannot get the videa to launch double clicking on the video gives a picture in the album cover window but does not launch the video viewer nor does the video play. I dont often view  music videos just Movies or TV Shows and last time I did I recall Music Videos playing they opened in a seperate window and there was once a setting in preferences where you could choose if a video launched in a new window or used on in iTunes.
    I have used the info window to change the video type to standard movie and then going back to the file in iTunes double clicking launches the video in full screen mode. Once I then set back to Music Video it reverts to refusing to play.
    In any format the file plays in Quicktime
    Any suggestions pointing to where the problem may lie would be welcome. I cant see any relevant settings to set how a video displays in either menus or Preferences other than ensuring video window stays on top. It maybe in one of the many upgrades this Mac and iTunes has had the settings have been corrupted.

    They will not show up in a separete category in iTunes. This is because the videos will show up as songs so that you can play the audio portion of a video without the video. Try it.
