Playlists with videos won't go away

iPod doesn't support playlist folders. As a result, the music playlists menu is annoying to use unless I trim it down to only include some of my playlists.
The obvious way to get rid of unwanted playlists is to uncheck them in the "Music" tab under the iPod in iTunes. I did this, but some playlists just wouldn't go away. It turns out that when I am syncing "All Movies" and "All TV Shows", any unchecked playlist that contains a video will still appear in the music playlist menu. (It seems like they were always empty playlists in the iPod.)
My workaround is to sync "selected playlists" for movies and tv shows, and to create a single playlist with all my videos. That playlist still appears under the music playlist menu of the iPod, but at least it's just 1.
I assume this is a bug. Anyone have a better workaround? Or is there just something I'm missing?

Hi, Spangles1234, and welcome to the Community,
I use the Windows Desktop version of Skype; please check this setting by clicking, in order:
On the menu bar atop your contact list, Tools -> Options -> Advanced Options -> Connection -> check in Allow direct connections to your contacts only -> Save.
As a proactive measure, please also run your preferred anti-virus/malware/spyware software suite using the most current virus signature files available.
Continue to Block and check in the Report as Abuse/Spam button.  This is important and Skype does utilize these reports.  [Edited to redact e-mail address, which is no longer in service.]
I recommend you create a new Skype account that includes no profile details and no references that could be connected with your first account. 
Finally, please see this FAQ article: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA34447/what-should-i-do-if-i-see-abusive-behavior-on-skype
This is key: Contact your local law enforcement agency to report the incident, and request that they, in turn, file a report with Skype to report these incidents.
Kind regards,
Elaine

  • Bug? Smart Playlists with Video Kind as Music Video.

    Can someone confirm? If you make a Smart Playlist with the rule "Video Kind is Music Video", nothing happens. If you edit the playlist, no rules are displayed...
    Strangely, however, my legacy Smart Playlist from a previous version of iTunes that contains similar criteria continues to work.
    Steve.

    Yup, I can confirm. The whole Video Kind rule doesn't seem to work. I did report it but more voices couldn't hurt.

  • Playlist with Video

    New ITouch and discovering what it can and cannot do. So far I am dancing in the streets because I was able to make playlist with music videos in it. I do find a small anomaly that I want to ask about. The only way I was able to do this I found by accident. If I make a playlist with only videos it shows up in the playlist when displayed through Itunes, but the iTouch doesn't seem to know about the playlist until I add at least one audio file. Then it appears on the iTouch and works exactly as I expected a playlist to work. If I delete the audio file from the playlist the whole playlist disappears again from the iTouch. I consider this a small price to pay for someone finally allowing videos in playlists. Is this the way it is supposed to work?

    thanks! you're a lifesaver. looks like apple didnt have it all figured out

  • Smart playlists with video podcasts

    I have a smart playlist on my iPod with one rule:
    Video Kind is Movie
    When I play videos from this list I hear the audio, but the video is frozen on a frame.
    All videos work fine when played from the main Videos menu.
    Is anybody able to play video podcasts from smart playlists ?

    Yup, I can confirm. The whole Video Kind rule doesn't seem to work. I did report it but more voices couldn't hurt.

  • Creating Smart Playlists with Video iPods

    Does anyone know how to create a Smart Playlist that excludes podcasts, videos and TV shows - so that it is music only?
    I figured out that I can include criteria in the playlist to have it "not contain" items whose Genre is podcast or TV shows, but there doesn't seem to be any way to exclude music videos.
    Anyone figure this out?

    To exclude videos, add both of these rules:
    Kind does not contain "video"
    Kind does not contain "movie"
    This covers all cases I have seen. This will also exclude TV shows (since they are videos/movies) so you don't have to worry about that Genre check.

  • Video playlist with iPod app

    I thought that I used to be able to make iTunes video playlists and play them with the iPod app on my iPad.
    Now it seems that all of my videos are only available in the iPad Video app but none are organized into a playlist.
    iTunes shows the iPad video playlists with videos and the playlist show up on the iPad app on the iPad but they are empty.
    What am I missing?
    Can I organize videos into playlists on the iPad?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    I am having the same problem and since the upgrade it's been a huge disappointment to me. I wish some developers read it and work and solving it ASAP. Not being able to organize videos in playlists rendered my ipad completely useless for me. It's an upgrade nightmare i wish it goes away soon. Good luck to us.

    I'm having the same issue, i restored my phone to Factory settings, even tried restoring it to my backup, half of my music bought from itunes won't play on my iphone and i'm super annoyed, this only happened once i updated to ios 7.2 so i assume its another glitch to go with my imessages not sending, getting sick of this.

  • Freezing Issues with Video Playlists - Windows 7 x64, iTunes 10

    OK, I've been troubleshooting this problem to the best of my ability for weeks now. I can't come up with any solution, if anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it.
    When playing videos from a playlist when one video ends but before another begins itunes becomes unresponsive. Sometimes a new video will start right away but it's rare, mostly an outright freeze, sometimes a new video will begin after about a minute or two of unresponsiveness.
    This leads me to believe that when itunes is updating the library database files it is somehow getting stuck.
    Interestingly enough, if I skip to the end of a video just to test if it will play the next in sequence it works perfectly. It only does this behavior when a video plays all the way through.
    What I have tried already:
    -Complete re-install of my entire OS after a clean format.
    -Added all itunes files to the exception lists of my virus software (NOD32).
    -Uninstalled virus software completely (same behavior without virus scanning software at all)
    -Ran itunes as an administrator.
    -Removed all devices from the PC with the exception of critical components, plus mouse and keyboard, sound card.
    -Updated all drivers
    -Ran itunes in compatability mode (Vista, XP)
    -Completed all suggested items for "unexpected freezes" in the itunes help section.
    I am running windows 7 x64, i7 @3.06GHz, 6GB Ram.
    Running itunes 10.2.1.1
    I briefly tried to downgrade to itunes 9, this seemed to clear up the problem. This is not a solution to me, I want the shared library features for my ipad.
    All video files play fine in other media players.
    Please help, I'm completely frustrated.

    As much as I loathe thread bumpers I'm still at a loss as how to fix this issue. If anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Playlist with mixed songs and videos

    I'm trying to use a Nano to play music and videos with a projector system. I'd like to play a playlist with both mp3 audio files and mp4 music videos.
    Setting up the playlist is no problem. In iTunes (Mac) it plays fine, switching between audio and video modes.
    However, on my Nano, if I play the list from the Songs menu, I only get the audio from the video files. OK, fine, I understand the logic of that. But when I select the playlist from the Video Playlists menu, I only see the Videos and it won't play the music-only files.
    Is there any way to get the Nano to play the mixed playlist like iTunes does?
    Cliff

    You can't do it with the iPod nano, but I have been doing it with a 5th gen for several years. I was shocked to find out this feature is now gone in the new nano. I'm guessing (but would like confirmation) that the same is true for the iPod classic since they use the same GUI/OS.
    I sent feedback to Apple here - http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodnano.html
    Maybe if more folks who want that feature back, Apple will fix it.

  • Ghost Rental in my IPOD Video Library...there's a video that I rented that won't go away...how to remove?

    I rented a video on my ipod, watched it, and now it won't go away.  I can't rewatch it either.  When I sync, it is not on the computer as far as rentals.  Can anyone help me remove this?

    See if you have enabled 'VoiceOver'…
    Open Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accessibility, select VoiceOver in the sidebar list, disable that if it is enabled. You may also see a keyboard shortcut listed there (e.g. cmd+F5), it's possible you hit that accidentally

  • How can you create a playlist with music and music video and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?

    How can you create a playlist on Ipod touch with music and music video,  and play those from same playlist through Apple TV?  I can download, create a playlist with both music and music video, stream that through the Apple TV with no problem.  The sound and the information show up on the TV, but when it gets to a music video, it only shows the information and "artwork".
    I also have a video playlist - videos play fine through the Apple TV, but will not shuffle through all videos - continues to repeat the same one.  I have most definitely selected shuffle in both locations - from the playlist and on the ipod video screen while video is playing.

    I finally got it... had to sync the photos with the music in iMovie, arrange the voiceover in GarageBand then export to iTunes, and then I was able to put it all together in iMovie and burn in iDVD... had a few glitches along the way but finally finished : )
