Problem transferring video to Ipad

I am a newbie to Ipad. 2 weeks ago I managed to transfer some purchased videos onto to my Ipad. Last weekend I transferred some songs (all through iTunes) and as a result the videos disappeared from my device. what option must I choose so that this won`t happen every time I transfer new content to my Ipad? I tried transferring the videos once again and managed to transfer them all of them except one, which somehow cannot get transferred. I don`t understand why this is happening since i had already transferred it once before on the device and it opens and works fine in iTunes. There is enough storage space on the device so this isn`t the problem. What could be wrong? Any idea why this is happening?

Problems transferring video to pc on the 6790

I am having problems transferring video from my phone to my laptop. I downloaded the PC Suite and had no problems with my pics, but the video won't play once it transfers to my laptop. Any ideas on what I need to do to get them to play?

What program are you using to play the files on your computer?
The procedure should actually be the same, connect via data transfer and drag and drop is the simplest for me.
Do the videos play while they are still on your memory card by any chance

Problems transferring video from iTunes to iPad

Can anyone help with transferring video from iTunes across to an iPad. This has worked smoothly in the past but now nothing seems to transfer across. Within iTunes on my computer, I've opened the iPad and chosen a new movie to transfer (ticking the box adjacent to the film). There apperas to be plenty of space left on the iPad (currently 3.98GB) .Then I've clicked Sync. At the top of the iTunes window, the iPad is shown as syncing (very quickly) but when I check on the ipad, the movie hasn't transferred.
Next, I've disconneceted the iPad from iTunes and restarted it - I've also tried restarting within iTunes - then reconnected to my computer and tried a fresh Sync. Same problem; the movie won't transfer. On the list of movies shown in iTunes as being on my iPad, the new movie shows up (albeit in grey - so not loaded). As it's not displaying in videos on the iPad, I can't delete it to start afresh.
Any suggestions welcome....

Thanks for the link. As noted I've managed the transfer on many occasions before, but for some reason the iPad and iTunes no longer feel like syncing. I did finally manage the transfer by restarting the computer (as well as the iPad) then trying to Sync the iPad. It shouldn't be such an issue however!
With regard to the home sharing, point taken but my wifi doesn't reach the room where I want to watch the movie on the iPad. This option doesn't work for me...

HT2729 Problem synching videos to iPad

I recorded vidoe with my iPhone 4 and then I did a synch to my PC using iTunes. I then tried to synch my iPad 3 and the movies would not synch. I have checked the synch all movies box but still have not had any luck. Any suggestions?

I tried to do as you advised but the CreatiPad option is not linked. I also noticed that the videos are in my iTunes library and have a blue dot next to them but when I synch, only one has the blue dot and is transfered to my iPad. The others have a grey dot with an exclamation point.

Problem transfering video to ipod......HELP PLEASE

i have put videos onto itunes(converted them using videoria)they show up on my itues and in my library but when i try to drag them onto my ipod it doesnt highlight. no response at all. i can only drag them to my "pary shuffle" i know this question has probly been answere a million times but i cant figure out what im doing wrong. im even looking in the folder that videoria saves the transfered songs. still no luck adding them to the ipod. please any feed back will help

I have had this problem, and it deals with the amount of data. It is the Average Bitrate, it should be below 500 kbps. Also try using handbrake or DVD2Pod. I use MacTheRipper to rip the DVD and DVD2oneX to size the DVD to under 4.3 Gig. Also a program that helps is DVDxDV which truns a VOB file to a movie.

Problem transferring video from laptop to Z1

Hello,
A couple of days ago i installed sony pc companion and media go. I transferred a video up to 2gb from my laptop to Z1 in about 5 minutes... Now there was a new update from Media Go i think 2.5..and everything is transferring very slow...transferring a video of 2gb takes more than one hour....please help...my laptop also makes allot noise when transferring...
I tried to delete sony pc companion and Media go...and just drag and drop into internal storage..but i get the same problem...it really takes long times to transfer..it shouldn't be like this....first everything went very smooth...

Did you get a dialog to convert the video first before copying? If yes, and you confirmed, encoding long videos could take ages on weak computer, so perhaps this is not an issue at all..
The problem with this conversion is that not all formats are readable by default Movies app in the phone, so it asks you to convert it before the transfer "on-the-fly". This takes some time (long if it is some full movie). But if you use another player, like MXVideo for example, you don't really need to convert it, and the transfer will then go very fast (just copying).
I thought it is the driver issue, because there is such problem too (Media Go acts more like a snail than a media manager, and it happens with PCC active simultaneously).
When everything have failed already, try to read the manual.
Kudos mean I am helpful. Am I for you? Then support me back

Problem transferring videos from iPhone 4

Recently, the videos I transfer show up as having 0 KB for size and are not recognized by Quicktime. They play properly on my phone. I am transferring the videos via Windows Explorer. It started happening around the time I updated to iOS 5, but I can not say for sure it was after.

Put your phone in airplane mode. The problem is that you are transferring large streams of data and the transfer protocol is getting interrupted by your iphone attempting to update apps in the background (which most people forget about happening constantly). I had quite a frustrating time with this problem especially since I have small kids and we cherish all of our photos and videos.
Another tip... to make sure you don't lose anything in transfer (who knows, it could still happen but I've found in airplane mode its a LOT less) just copy files over and then once you validate they are good to go on your hard drive, then go back and delete them on your phone.
Did this work for you too?

Problems transfering videos to ipod since installing itunes 6.02

So, i just upgraded to itunes 6.02 and now i can't transfer videos onto my ipod. It tells me they aren't in the correct format or a format the ipod can play. Before i upgraded i had absolutely no problems. I have tried taking off files that uploaded fine with the previous version of itunes and uploading them with the newer version and they don't work either. I've got the latest updater software and that's made no difference.
I've used both Videora and Apollo ipod convertors and neither make any difference. I've tried both mpeg4 and h.264 formats, but that doesn't work either.
Why do apple bring out software that creates new bugs?!

I just bought a 5th gen and cannot transfer videos.
The videos are a computer format (could not play on TV) and I converted them to play on Ipod like help file stated. It stated that I can drag and drop to Ipod icon that shows when I connect the Ipod and use ITunes. Well no can do! It transfered to ITunes and will play in ITunes but cannot get to Ipod. My Ipod has a video section so I know I can have them on it. I tried with manual and automatic update selected.
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Jim

Problem synching videos on iPad and iPhone

I just got a new laptop and copied my entire iTunes library from my desktop pc to the new laptop. Everything synchs without issue except for video files in my photo directories. This does not happen with my CBT videos that synch under Movies.
If I uncheck "Include Videos" from the Photo tab, the synch runs without any problems. Only when I try to include the videos does this happen. This is happening on both my iPhone 4 and iPad.
I didn't think to try and synch again on my desktop pc so I'll give that a shot when I get home but I can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening. Both machines are Windows 7 x64 (desktop is Pro, laptop is Home Premium) and all I did was copy the entire iTunes Library from my user profile on the desktop to the same location in my user directory on the laptop. When I launched iTunes, everything was there just like it was on the desktop. I never had a problem synching the videos on the desktop.
The only difference between the machines is one is Win7Pro, the other is Win7Home Premium and the laptop has the absolute latest version of iTunes.
Any ideas?

I also sent an email to a Hotmail account that I gave and received a message that it is not a correct email address which it clearly is. All if this is happening only when connected to Apple's software relating to the IPad and I-phone. I do not see how the settings could be wrong in that I have been using my IPad without a problem for about 2 years and the IPhone for 4 months. Also, I do receive emails now without issues.
When I go to the web based Yahoo email I do not experience these problems or with my laptop.

Problem transfering video to ipod

I bought some video files (tv episodes) from the iTunes store and for some reason some of them will not transfer onto my iPod. The first few files worked fine and play on my iPod fine too (it's a season's worth of a TV show I'm discussing here). But the last few downloads refuse to transfer. They will play on the computer but when I drag them onto my iPod - a new 160G classic - it tells me "XX was not copied to the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod."
Incidentally, I am running the latest iTunes version (7.4.2 (4)) and iPod OS.
It's especially strange because only some of the video files have this problem, not all of them. And as I said they play fine on iTunes on the computer.
I checked and made sure my computer is authorized for my account. Rebooting, ejecting and replugging the iPod, or restarting iTunes doesn't help. Any advice?

I had a similar problem once and solved it by coping the items to another folder. I then removed the items using the iTunes interface and said "Yes" to the "remove video and delete file" question. I then closed iTunes. After opening it again I used the File > Add To Library menu option and added the items again. It worked for me, maybe it wil work for you as well. You may end up needing to do all that, only to find out you need to re-download the titles from the iTunes Store again. Good luck.

Problem transfering video from iPhone 4s to iPhone 3gs

i recorded a video on iPhone 4s and i need to transfer that same video on to my iPhone 3gs can any help me with this problem?

However, when I go to play them back in the latest Quicktime player the colours are wrong, mainly coming out purple.
On an XP system, the first thing I'd try would be the "Disable Direct3D acceleration in QuickTime" section of the following document. (iTunes uses QuickTime for video display, so the same basic troubleshooting step applies.) Restart the QuickTime Player prior to checking to see if the settings change has had any effect:

Problems transferring videos to iPhone, iTunes and now QuickTime

So I wanted to add a video to my iPhone 4S, but iTunes would not allow this, as the "file could not be played on this iPhone". After reading a few threads about this, I tried adding the video to iTunes to see if it appeared under "home videos" or "recently added", and then convert it, so it would be watchable on my iPhone, but nothing happened. After reading some other discussions where someone said you should open the video in QuickTime and export it to iTunes, I tried that, but QuickTime says "the movie's file format isn't recognized". I tried this with .mov, .mp4, .avi, and so on, but QuickTime doesn't want any file format. The files open and play in VLC just fine.
What's the problem here? Once I think I have the solution, there's another problem, and I'm starting to get pretty angry with this.
Mac OSX 10.7.5., iPhone 4S: IOS 5.1.1., iTunes 11.0.1. (12), QuickTime: 10.1., if anyone's wondering.

Has to be synced. But you can change it so that only the ones checked will sync. Go into iTunes with your iPhone connected and scroll through the tabs. There will be an option to sync only the checked media. So uncheck the ones you do not want.
There is no drag feature available for iPhone like there is for iPod. It has to sync to folders and playlists

Transferring video to ipad

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to transfer video from a JVC camcorder directly to an ipad without using a computer?
Thanks

1. Forget .mvis, they won't play
2. Drag all video files into the upper left corner of iTunes.
The status bar will say something like "Processing file..."
Then it will say "Adding (or Locating) Artwork..."
When it is done go to the "Recently Added" playlist (1/2 way down the column), edit the smartlist and put in today's date. This will show all the movies that have just been uploaded.
Select all the files then click on "Convert" - I use iPod not iPad mode since I can send the same movies to my iTouch as well as my iPad this way and I don't notice any difference in quality.
After the conversion is complete (takes a looong time), create a new playlist, drag all the converted ones over and sync away!
Converted files will have the same name as the original files so I turn on the "Date Added" column and delete the earlier files. The most recent ones will be the converted ones.
(Apple really needs to find some way to dileneate converted from non-converted files!)
Then delete all the original files from iTunes or you'll end up with 2 copies of each vid in itunes. You have the original source someplace else anyway.
All the files should end up in the "Movies" tab.
I have so many vids and movies that I find it easier to work with playlists instead of working in "Movies". I only pop in there if I need to delete a file which you can't do in Playlists (they will delete from the playlist but will stay in "Movies". If you delete from "Movies" they delete from iTunes)

Problem using video on iPad since the iOS7 install. Any help?

Since the install of iOS7 on my iPad, the video will not engage.

Meant that when I tap the "video" word on the screen it won't go to video. But, just found the answer. You have to swipe up or down to change the camera mode. Thanks for your willingness to help!
