Quicktime + itouch

I am having problems with online video content. Is quicktime compatible wit ipod touch safari

It all depends on how the page is coded.
If the page has to download the video first, it won't work.
As time goes, you'll see more sites offering compatible content.

Quicktime Pro captioning for iPhone/iTouch

Okay bear with me here, I am a teacher for the deaf/hoh. My students have a iPhone for their classroom use and I want to enable closed captioning on their iPhone. We are using a webcast like iTunes U. Here is the dilemma.
I have a Quicktime pro and was wondering how do I create captioning to ensure captioning will show up on the iPhone. I understand that most iPod/iPhone device requires SCC format so that captioning will show up.
I am already using MovCaptioner (http://synchrimedia.com/) and the developer gave me an advanced copy that has SCC enable. I already installed a closedcaptionimporter.componment for Quicktime pro. Mostly, it has not been successful because Quicktime reads a binary numbers instead of text.
Question,
Is there a way around without using SCC so that captioning will show up on the iPhone/iPod?
Why the didn't Apple have SCC codec if iPhone/iPod would have closed captioning?
Please help, I do not understand why of all things considered. I been a loyal Apple user for years and I love the ease of using Apple. However, working with Quicktime and ensuring captioning will show up on the iPhone/iPod is such a difficult thing.
The deaf/hoh kids needs the educational benefit and they are behind in their hearing peers. Hope you understand my dilemma and the question I am asking.
Thanks!

Try Muxo. SRT is a much easier format to deal with. I can't even import scc with QT Pro! I wasted time reading articles about SCC and copying tracks with QT Pro... This makes adding srt tracks to m4v's very easy:

How can I set h.264 to convert quicktime for itouch 16x9 (480x320)?

When I select ipod settings and select 16:9 that converts to 320 x 180, but I need 480x320. How can I set that up?

Hi,
That is exactly what I did. It only gives me the preset 320 x 180. I would like better resolution than that for 16x9 aspect ratio.

Error message when connecting iTouch (after Windows 7 update)

Please help!
I first had a Windows 7 (998 error) and uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes a couple times until I got it up and running along with QuickTime working as well.
When I go to try and sync my iTouch it is saying "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." I have actually done this twice and it is still not working.
Please help!! I would really like to use my iPod again.
Thank you,
Aimee

This solution allowed the itouch to communicate with itunes and then instantly recognised that it needed to be updated to software version 4.1. All's good so thanks for this

Which is the best software to convert the video files for itouch?

I got a 3rd gen itouch. Is there any software that helps to convert the video files. so I can sync those files to my itouch. " Handbrake " used to work pretty good. but now i still can convert the video files to m4v format but itunes doesn't allow me to put those files in. Please Help!

You may have different menu options than Half bit Bit Ah. The support page on how to do it is at https://support.apple.com/kb/TS1497. In part it says:
If you did not purchase videos from the iTunes Store, they are may not be in a format that you can play on your iPhone/iPod. In many cases, you can convert them to the correct format using iTunes or QuickTime.
* Using iTunes: Select a video and choose Advanced > Create iPod or iPhone Version
* Using Mac OS X v10.6: Open the video in QuickTime Player and choose Share > iTunes and then select the iPhone & iPod option.
Hope that helps!

Remote Not Working With QuickTime 7.3.0

Hi I just upgraded and realized my frontrow remote has stopped working with Quicktime. The remote works with VLC, iTunes etc but not QT. Forget about scanning forward or backward it cant even adjust the volume. I never had the problem before. I have tried playing both avi and mp4 files.
I run Tiger and have a macbook

As a follow up -
I spoke with Apple Support about this and was routed to a few people who were helpful, and moved it up to the engineers of Keynote (and the white remote?) for a solution.
A few days later I received this reply:
Hello Eric, I have heard back from the engineers about this. It looks like as long as Keynote 6.0 is present on the system it will default to using the remove in that application. If you remove Keynote 6.0, which we would not recommend, then you can use Keynote 5.3 with the remote. Presently though this is normal and expected behavior.
I replied by expressing my disappointment that this wasn't functional, since I'm not comfortable using Keynote 6.0 yet. Short of uninstalling 6.0, the only workaround I have found is to use the iPhone/iTouch Keynote remote app, or make a duplicate copy of your presentation to be opened in 6.0 (and using the remote there).

Please help, itunes wont synch with my itouch

after a recent update for my itunes, my itouch would not synch with itunes. i attempted to install and reinstall itunes. then it wont even charge my itouch.
at this stage, whenever i open itunes, this error message pops up "registry settings used bythe itunes driver for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing . This can happen as a result of installing ther CD burning softwares. Please reinstall Itunes".
i tried just uninstalling and installing Itunes.
then i tried uninstalling Itunes and other itunes relating programs (Bonjour, apple software updater, quicktime, etc) the recommended methd on this web site
but this doesnt change anything.
then recently i tried, going to my C hardrive and find GearAspiwdm.inf, then right click then install them.
and also, downloading the Gear drivers installation x86 x64.
then i nolonger get the error message but my itouch still wont synch....

whenever i open itunes, this error message pops up "registry settings used bythe itunes driver for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing . This can happen as a result of installing ther CD burning softwares. Please reinstall Itunes".
I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

ITouch no longer syncs after install iTunes 11.1.3.8/ iStore Authorization problem

I installed iTunes 11.1.3.8 last Monday on my daughter's computer.
While I was at work on Tuesday, my daughter connected her iTouch to the computer. My wife reported that all her music was missing and she was trying to put everything back. Subsequently, all the songs got deleted from my daughter's iPod Touch and now it appears unable to sync with the computer.
The songs are on the computer, but nothing on the iTouch.
When we try to sync, we get the following message on the computer's iTunes: "<daughter's> iPod could not be synced because this computer is no longer authorized for purchased items that are on this iPod. To authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes Store, choose Store > Authorize this computer."
We have tried reauthorizing, authorizing, de-authorizing, reauthorizing... all sorts of authorizing. No success.
Any help would be appreciated. No iPod => my daughter is unhappy (understatement).

Try:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

ITouch 5 is not recognized by Windows 7

Hi,
I bought a used iTouch 5th gen and charger cable and have spent the last 5 hours trying to get it to sync to iTunes. I had a 4th gen iPod that i lost a month ago that worked perfectly with my computer.
I have reconnected and restarted both devices several times, and only 2 times was windows able to recognize the device so that it showed up in iTunes. Otherwise, it gave me error 43: Device has malfunctioned or error 10: Device cannot start. Both times I finally got it to connect to iTunes, I tried to restore the new ipod from the backup from my old ipod, but it gets stuck at around 10% with "Time remaining: [absurdly high number of hours]". The iPod charges just fine when plugged into the wall and into the computer.
Things i have tried: re-installing/updating itunes, restarting computer, troubleshooting with Microsoft Fixit, trying with another computer, updated drivers.
I just want to put my apps and music from the old ipod to the new one. How can I fix this connection problem? Can I do it without syncing to iTunes?
This is my first time asking a question on here, so any help/redirection would be much appreciated!

You said " I tried to restore the new ipod from the backup from my old ipod, but it gets stuck at around 10% with "Time remaining: [absurdly high number of hours]".".
What was iTunes doing when it froze?
See what you missed here:
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

Note the above is different that just reinstall iTunes
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

ITouch not recognized by Windows, iTunes

My iTouch is functioning fine, but I can't connect it to iTunes.
I have gone through the FAQ:
http://discussions.apple.com/ann.jspa?annID=774
but still am having no luck. I have had this iTouch syncing with previous versions of iTunes (currently I have the latest itunes - 9.??).
I uninstalled all the possible apple software components (iTunes, Quicktime, Apple mobile device, etc.) that I could. With all the software removed, I got my computer to recognize my iTouch (as an apple camera funny enough; can't do much with it though).
After I install the latest iTunes, my computer cannot recognize the iTouch. I tried all the steps in the FAQ: reinstalling the USB driver, verify apple mobile device installed as service, etc. Everything looks good. However, when I connect the iTouch to the computer, iTunes starts, but then hangs (probably b/c it XP can't recognize the device). When I unplug the iTouch, iTunes get un-hung and runs fine.
Very frustrating. Anyone had this problem? Thanks in advance for any help.

A few weird things:

ITouch no longer recognized after installing iTunes 8 and Leopard

I recently installed the new version of iTunes, which prompted me to download the new version of Quicktime, which then prompted me to install Leopard, which I did. Now I have the new version of iTunes, but my iTouch is no longer coming up as a recognized device. My connecting cable still works because my iTouch is charging when I connect it to my Powerbook, but the device is not recognized by my computer, and I've run out of options. I have tried restarting my iTouch, and also using a different connecting cable-- nothing works. Any advice?
Thanks a million.

Hello,
Just wanted to make sure you've also restarted the computer, in addition to restarting the iPod touch. For the time being, try to connect the iPod with the USB cable that came with it, and make sure it's being connected directly to the computer, and not through any external USB hubs or anything of the sort. Also, if you haven't tried this, try connecting the iPod to a different USB port.
Since installing Leopard, double check your Software Updates to make sure there's nothing else pending that you might need. (Just click on Software Update in your Apple menu).
If that hasn't worked it out, you might try reinstalling Apple Mobile Device Support, which is what allows the iPod touch to communicate with your computer and iTunes.
First, drag iTunes from your Applications folder to the Trash.
Then, delete these files:
(1) AppleMobileDeviceSupport.pkg located in: Macintosh HD/Library/Receipts/
(2) AppleMobileDevice.kext located in: Macintosh HD/System/Library/Extensions/
Restart your computer
Download and install iTunes again

Itunes videos will not play on Itouch-- HELP!! (please)

I recently purchased an Itouch, (& I love it!!-for the most part) I just have one issue... none of the videos I purchased in the Itunes store will play on it! They will transfer without issue, but when I try to play it on my Itouch I get this message: "This movie could not be played". So my tv shows, music videos, AND movies will not play! (note: all were purchased/ downloaded from the itunes store). [They will play on my old Ipod mini tho...)
I have spent two days perusing Apple support and all over the internet looking for a fix... nothing is working. I have the latest edition of itunes and everything. I have reset my Itouch, taken everything off and put it back on. I have un-installed and re-installed itunes... I have also done all of the trouble shooting steps... like the downloading of the sample video...
One message board told me that I could go to Advanced> Create Iphone or Itouch version & that should do the trick... nope. It's not even an option for me... and since I don't have QuickTime PRO it won't let me convert and export my videos either.
I am rather distressed about this, so I really hope you can help me.
Thanks!

I don't understand what your iPod model has to do with your version of iTunes...
... this option is in the iTunes' Advanced menu... if you have the latest version of iTunes installed, it would be right there... only grayed out if you don't have a video file selected.

Video Podcasts won't sync to iTouch with iTunes 9.0.1.8

There's obviously a bug in iTunes where some video podcasts (ESPN Mike & Mike, ESPN PTI Big Finish for example) do not sync. I get an error saying they are not copied to the iTouch because they cannot be played on this iPod - which is most likely not true. What's going on? Anyone know of a fix or having similar issues?

That's not a bug in iTunes. The message tells you what the problem is - those videos cannot be played on the iPod. That's because they are not in the correct format. My iTunes message actually said the "format was not supported".
There are two options: try converting the video for iPod use. Highlight the video, one at a time, and click on *Advanced/Create iPod or iPhone version.* Each conversion takes quite a while.
The other option (possibly the better one) is to email the Podcast producers to let them know that their video Podcats cannot be played on an iPod. They may not know! I had a look on the PTI website and they seem keen to provide Podacst Feeds for iTunes. This is not quite the same as providing for an iPod.
Podcast producers have been known to issue videos that play in iTunes (via Quicktime), but not on iPods. So if you do email them, let them know where you got the Feed (that is, how you subscribed/downloaded - via iTunes or via their website and iTunes) and detail exactly what doesn't happen.
I've just tried downloading episodes from each of the programmes you mention and they do both fail to transfer to my iPod. But as I said, it's not a bug and it is true. As portable media players (of which iPods are just one type) have evolved, so have the video standards and now some formats simply cannot be played on some devices.
Good luck.
Phil
