My video also shows up under music...

I just bought The Waterboy and it shows up under videos just fine and it works and everything but if I go to music I can turn it on in music folder it plays as if it is a music file I can watch it in both sideways modes and the normal mode which is also kind of odd. Just wondering how to fix it. Thanks.

I've been completely unable to find any info on if the movie is supposed to go under music playlist any help?

  • Why do some video files show up under music, & some under movies?

    I ordered a CD off of iTunes that included bonus material, 4 of which were videos. 3 were music videos, 1 an interview with the artist. The 3 music videos show up at the end of the album in the music part of iTunes, the interview video shows up seperately under movies. Is there any way to manipulate this, so all the videos can be in one place, be it under movies, or music?
    Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help me out here.

    Right click the file and then click get info, go to the options tab, there should be a box which says media type: change this to the option you want.

  • Video Podcasts show up as Music

    Here is my problem:
    I downloaded a couple video podcasts from iTMS and copied them to my ipod. They play fine in iTunes, but on my ipod they dont show up anywhere in the video section, only in the music section. When I 'get info' within iTunes they both show as 'Movie' in the Movie Kind field. I am using iTunes version 6.0.2.23 (Windows), Cd Driver 2.0.43, Cd Driver DLL 2.0.3.2, Ipod Video 30G, Version 1.0.
    Now for some additional info...
    When I am transfering the video to the ipod, I am doing this manually because I use both my home and work machines with my ipod.
    Here are some things I have tried:
    I first attempted to download the video podcasts using iTMS on my work machine with the result being that the videos showing up under my music and not showing up under video anywhere.
    I downloaded a video (not using iTMS) on my work machine and then imported it into the library and then manually copied it to my ipod and it worked just fine.
    I attempted to 'Convert The Selection For Ipod' within iTunes (again work machine) for the iTMS downloaded video podcasts and it tells me that the files were not converted because they are already in the correct format. I am wondering if the problem is somehow related to the fact that these files have been downloaded through the podcast subscription? I cant see any reason why, but just throwing some things out there.
    I attempted to download the video podcasts using iTMS on my home machine with the same results. As a last effort at this time, I tried the transfer again, and left it to transfer overnight.
    Using a different computer (not work or home) I rebuilt Windows XP Pro from scratch. The only thing installed was service pack 2, then installed the same version of iTunes (6.0.2.23) and had a slightly different experience. One of the podcasts in questions did the exact same thing, that is showing up under music and no video playing. The other podcast however ended up showing up and played fine. Now my problem is I dont know if the new machine transferred it correctly or if it was transferred correctly from my home machine the night before (I overlooked checking it before attempting the transfer on the new machine.) I have since then attempted to transfer the problem file on the new machine and it failed again.
    Now, has anyone managed to experience and resolve this issue? I know that I should update the ipod to 1.1 and try again, but since I have read about all of the problems with video on the new version I am a little hesitant to do that. Anyone have any suggestions on what ot try next, or am I going to have to bite the bullet and upgrade the ipod?
    Thanks in advance,
    Rob
    Ipod Video 30G Version 1.0   Windows XP Pro  

    OK, tried some new things, here is the latest update:
    I went ahead and bit the bullet, upgraded to 1.1. Deleted the video files from the music section of the ipod and then attempted to manually transfer the files. Still, the same symptoms occured.
    Next step, performed a restore on the ipod (using the latest updater (thus retaining version 1.1), then set the ipod to sync with itunes on the work machine. Videos uploaded fine, show up in the Videos section and even play as videos on the ipod! Now we are getting somewhere.
    Once I arrived home, I plugged the ipod into my home machine, told it yes, that I wanted to delete the content and attach the ipod to itunes on my home machine. Once all my music downloaded to the ipod, I subscribed to the video podcasts, they downloaded, then I synced the ipod, and they show up in the video section and play as videos. Everything seems to work fine!
    My next step will be to disable auto sync and manually add some video podcasts to the ipod and see if it will function then. I will update the thread once that is complete.

  • Video podcast shows up as music podcast

    when i downloaded the video podcast off itunes music store,on the itune it shows up as video but in my ipod it wont show up as a video but shows up as musics as in i cant see anything but i can still hear sounds.Does anyone knwo how i can get the podcast to show up as video? and where i can find it?

    Is it showing up under Videos-->video podcasts?
    If you access it through the music section of the iPod (music-->podcasts), it will not play the video.
    If you are accessing it through videos-->video podcasts and it still only plays audio, try this.
    Go to videos-->video settings-->TV Out-->off

    Audiobooks go in Music, not ibooks.   Is the book you are talking about not an audiobook but an .epub or some other format where you read text?

  • ITunes Radio isn't showing up under Music app

    I finally have iOS7 downloaded, but iTunes Radio isn't showing up under Music app.  I only have access to my music in the cloud, genius playlists, etc.  Why doesn't the radio show up?  Am I looking in the wrong place?  I tried a reset, but still not showing up. Maybe I am just blind or something.  Working fine on my iPad

    It seems like the iTunes Radio is only available for users in the US at the moment, with no comment on how long it will take for it to be distributed to other contries. So if any of you is outside the US, it seems you are out of luck for the time being.

  • Podcasts & Audiobooks show up under Music Songs

    Hi. I have my iPod rather organized and I like that. The Podcasts show up under Podcasts and the Audiobooks show up under Audiobooks.
    However, now I notice that when I go to Music>Songs both my Podcasts and Audiobooks show up there. I don't like that and I don't want to access them that way. Is there a way I can change the settings so that the Podcasts and Audiobooks don't show up under "songs"?

    The Music>Songs folder just lists ALL the audio files on your iPod. That doesn't mean that they'll play along with your other songs though. By default podcasts and audiobooks are usually set to the "Skip when shuffling" option.
    So, selecting a song from Music>Songs won't add the podcasts and audiobooks to your Now Playing playlist. Just try it out. Select a podcast from your Music>Songs list. This will add only this podcast with the rest of the other Music files (that's the list in iTunes).
    I know it's weird. Here's what you can do. Make a playlist with all music with options to remove podcasts and audiobooks.

  • Video files show up as music files?!?!

    My 5th Gen 30GB ipod Video has around 30 video files in it. When I plugged it into computer today (with iTunes installed) to charge it, after a few hours when I unplugged it, all the video files were gone! I found them all under the music section of my ipod. When I play them, only the very first pixel/clip shows up in a small icon( where the album usually is for music) and plays the audio only. This isnt the first time it has happend either, last time I had to delete all the vid files and reupload them onto my iPod. This time they are still in there, anyone have any idea on how to fix this? This is extremely frustrating! Thanks for your help in advance!

    I have this same problem. But, the videos are not on my computer. My boyfriend put them on from his laptop, but lent it to his friend. The friend will have his laptop until this weekend, and I really do not want to wait that long. If anyone has a quick solution, I would really appreciate it.

  • Video playlists show up in music playlists!

    I originally had the problem where my music playlists were showing up in my video playlists section of the ipod along with my 2 video playlists (movies and tv shows). I have finally solved THAT issue by putting 'tv shows' or 'movies' in the comments section of all my videos, then went to my smart music playlists and put the following condition: "comment does not include 'tv shows' or 'movies'). Boom, this keeps my music playlists out of my video playlists and now my video playlists only have 'tv shows' and 'movies.'
    HOWEVER, my 2 video playlists are showing up in my MUSIC playlists now, with nothing in the playlist, just the names of them (tv shows and movies). This is ANNOYING!
    i have gone to itunes ipod preferences and excluded these 2 playlists from the music playlist sync, but there's STILL showing up on the ipod.
    Can anyone help?

    Please help!

  • Videos not showing up under Ipod

  • Itunes music downloaded to iPad 2 but doesn't show up under "music" app

    We have a lot of music in iTunes on the Mac, most of which is from CDs we own. We synced to new iPad 2 and it shows they all went in, but can't get any of the music to show. the "music" button says nothing is there. the "Itunes" button only takes us to the store.

    First of all - songs do go to the Music app for playing on the iPad - not iTunes. Look in the Music app. If it's not there - this may help ....
    When you sync the iPad with iTunes - you have to select the music to sync within the Music Tab of iTunes. the Sync Music Heading must be checked and the albums, artists, playlists, etc must be selected as well in order to sync.
    These kb articles should be of some help. It works the same way on the iPad.

  • Music in library, but not showing up under "music"

    For some reason, if I click on "Music" I see the screen that you get with a fresh iTunes library, but my music is all still there. How do I fix this screen so I can navigate the music in my library?

    Ummm. are you talking about the view settings? They are the four buttons to the right of the apple window that scrolls the titles..

  • Apple TV 2 shows Playlisted Radio Station Genres under Music.

    It's more annoying than anything else, but Apple TV and Apple Remote show Radio Station Genres while browsing Music Genres on my PC library. Naturally, when you select that Genre the either device reports 'No Songs' in the libray.
    In order to remember three Internet Radio Stations, I dragged them into a Playlist titled Radio Stations on my PC library. As a result, those 'odd' Genres now show up under Music as described above when using Apple TV to access my library or using Apple Remote on my iPhone to access my library.
    I guess the only way to stop seeing those Radio Station Genres is to delete the Radio Station Playlist, but then that sort of defeats the purpose of using that function for when I'm sitting in front of my PC.
    Am I missing a simple solution?
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Gino.
    I was thinking that would be the case.
    It is odd, however, that when I use Apple Remote to control the Apple TV and use 'Computers' to access my PC library rather than swipe 'Control' (or the Apple TV remote itself), the Music Genres show up correctly; as in without displaying the Radio Station Genres!
    It's when I control my PC library directly with Apple Remote or access my PC library with Apple TV that the Radio Station Genres appear under Music.
    It does seem a bit inconsistent and a not intuitive.
    Oh, well. Thought I'd ask!

  • How do I get music videos, tv shows, and movies from my iTunes onto my iPod touch?

    I just bought the 32 G iPod touch bc I read online that the 8G holds 2000 songs plus other stuff and the 32G holds 8000 songs plus more. I have 3000 songs on my iTunes and for some reason it said it won't hold more than 2600. Also I can't figure out to put the music videos, tv shows, and movies from my iTunes synced onto my iPod touch. Help?

    The advertised number of songs an iPod can hold is based on set factors such as the encoding for each song and the length for each song.
    Transferring movies is selected under the Movies tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.
    Transferring TV Shows is selected under the TV Shows tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.
    Include Music Videos is selected under the Music tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.

  • Music videos & tv shows

    I have been trying to sort my videos out on my touch. In itunes I sorted them all out and named them, clicked on the video tab in info and labelled them either 'music video' or 'tv show' (I don't have any films yet). My videos were then disappeared from the video page and the tv show reappeared in the tv show library as expected, the music videos went into the music library. This all looked fine displayed on my ipod in itunes. However when I looked on my ipod itself there were now videos whatsoever in the video page, and I couldn't find a folder for tv shows anywhere!! Where are my tv shows hidden??? If I redo the info on my ipod in itunes and label them all as movie videos they all appear in my video section on my ipod no problem. Can anyone explain?? I just wanted to keep them all in separate sections instead of a mishmash of different types of video content!

    What version of itunes are you using, have you updated to the latest, 7.5? If so when you connect your ipod to the computer, and select the ipod from the right hand pane in itunes, the main window should change to show a overview of your ipod. Across the top of the overview pane there should be different tabs music/movies/tv shows etc. In the music tab make sure sync music videos is selected, under the tv show tab choose sync all tv shows. Also if you have itunes set to only sync checked items make sure that all of the videos and tv shows have the check mark next to them. Resync your ipod, and they should show up in the appropriate category under videos on your ipod. (The music videos will also show up in the music section of the ipod, but will only play the audio if you select them from there)
