Really need help getting DVDs to play on my ipod

I have purchased imTOO DVD converter and Quicktime PRO. I can't get Quicktime to even recognize the DVD file and keep getting an error that says "not a movie". imTOO does the conversion but my iPOD has crapped out trying to add the file to my library. Really starting to cheese me off. Has anyone been able to rip a DVD (movie such as lord of the rings) and get it to play on their iPOD? If so, Please tell me how.

Thanks to all for your assistance. My problem was solved by going to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302828 This link was provided to me by someone on these discussion boards. Thanks to everyone for their help!
Happy 2008!! Problem solved!

    Finding serial number for a device - https://discussions.apple.com/message/18246553 - from box or backup file, not from Apple.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2526 - If you registered a device you can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers that have been purchased or registered with your Apple ID.

    Maybe a way to find serial number after a device is no longer in your possession - https://discussions.apple.com/message/19524469 - "The easiest way to find your serial number is this Open Itunes...click help... run diagnostics.....(tick or untick as necessary) so that you just have ticked the last two, device connectivity and device sync. run these tests. it will say no ipod/ipad found but will give results of test....scroll down to bottom of results... here you will find the serial number of your last attached devices."

  • Need help getting video to play in keynote on new iPad

    Successfully imported a video to new iPad ( asa m4p )  it looks and sounds good in photo stream, but when I bring it into Keynote the audio is gone... What's up?  Help please!

    Hi Klaus,
    Thank you for the reply. However, that was not the cause.
    After a grueling 13 hours yesterday I figured out a way to get the files to work. According to the iDVD site (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/6732.html)"MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 files, QuickTime VR movies, and movies with sprite or Flash tracks cannot be added."
    My solution was to convert every single video file through iMovie. I imported the mpgs and exported them into mp4s. I now have sound on computer files and on DVD player.
    How extremely complicated.

  • Need help getting audio to play

    I dragged two audio files to a page in my site, but all I get is a tiny, blue Quicktime symbol with no ability to play the files after I've published the site. I use my own domain name, not a .mac account.
    I've tried this twice - once with the files as they were, listed as mpegs, and another after converting those to mp3s. I get the same results each time.
    Any suggestions on what I need to fix? The site is at: http://LivinginRhyme.com. Audio is on *Radio show interviews.*

    Well, that's interesting. I've went and tried it again, and I can't access anything via Safari, but I now realize I can using Firefox (though, yeah, it takes way too long to load). What browser did you use?
    Is there anything I can do so this works with Safari - and any other browser someone may use?

  • I really need help from anyone about transfering from my ipod to my compute

    I don't know what I did, but There is nothing in my itunes any more. Also all my settings are gone (such as all my playlists and pod cast subscriptions. I still have everything that I had already down loaded into my ipod in my ipod. Is there any way I can download from my ipod back into my itunes? If not, is there any way to locate the missing stuff that should still be in my computer since I never emptied the recycle bin in the last couple of weeks? Thank you, Marty

    First you need to scan the system for viruses and malware if your sure you done nothing to wipe iTunes library out. Scan with your antivirus program and scan for malware with Ewido http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
    Now you can use a program like yamipod to copy just the playlist if you want http://www.yamipod.com/main/modules/home/

  • Need help getting artwork & song titles on my ipod

    The computer that contains my ipod library cannot get internet access but I want to add artwork and song titles to my ipod.
    I have a second computer that can get internet access, but I don't know how to update my ipod using that second computer since my library is stored on my first computer.
    Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Ipod 30GB    

    Copy your iTunes folder to the second PC and then you could connect to the internet for artwork etc and update your iPod from it. You can use your iPod to copy it over: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300173-en

  • Need help getting files off of a corrupted ipod

    I have a 40gb 4th Gen Ipod that is not synced to any Itunes....my old computer recently passed away. Like a retard, I never backed any of the files up. So, I tried to use 3rd party software...(I can't remember which one) and the software could not transfer the files because they are "corrupted". The strange clicking noises and the fact that I've had to reset my Ipod various times in the last couple weeks makes me think that this Ipod is on it's way out.....but I want to save the 20gb of music that's on there. I've read that I should restore my ipod to orig settings.....but does that mean that all of that music on there is lost forever?
    Dell Inspirion   Windows XP  

    I usually use the following command to rip a music dvd to wav:
    OUTPUTDIR="/Some/Rip/Dir"
    TITLE=2
    FIRST_CHAPTER=1
    LAST_CHAPTER=13
    CHAPTER=$FIRST_CHAPTER
    AUDIO_ID=128
    echo "Ripping Audio..."
    while [ $CHAPTER -le $LAST_CHAPTER ]; do
    let NO=$CHAPTER
    mplayer -dvd-device /dev/dvd1 dvd://$TITLE -vo null -vc null -ao pcm:waveheader:file=$OUTPUTDIR/track$NO.wav -af lavcresample=44100 -aid $AUDIO_ID -chapter $CHAPTER-$CHAPTER
    let CHAPTER=CHAPTER+1
    done
    Resampling to 44100 is important since most mp3 players cannot handle 48000.
    Then I have another little script that converts it to flac, sets the correct tags, and finally converts the flac to oggs as well..

  • Mac start up wont work. I have tried safe start, command s / v , command r, pram, and more. Nothing helps!!! I really need to get back onto it. PLEASE HELP ME

    My mac is only a year old. I am still under warranty but don't want to have to go to the store. I know it has something to do with not connecting to my hard drive and I want to make it clear that IT HAS NOT BEEN DROPED,BANGED OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY!!
    Here is what I have tried so far:
    For safe start The loading bar shows up but then doesn't load. After a few seconds it disappears and the wheel continues to spin.
    I have tried PRAM but it doesn't help at all.
    The only way I can get it off the start off page is to either go to fsck or Mac OS utilites.
    Fsck comes up as an error message for me when I put in fsck -FY. /sbin/fsck -FY also doesn't work.
    Mac OS utilities really also doesn't much. When I try to back up my hard drive it recognizes the external drive but then has no where to put it to??? So then I tried reinstalling the lion software part bit it won't allow me because for some reason it is locked. So I also try to verify and repair my drive. An error message comes up so I know there is something wrong. But not what to do about it. So now I am here on the Internet.
    I Really need to get this fixed!!! PLEASE SOMEONE PROVIDE ME WITH AN ANSWER TO HELP FIX MY PROBLEMS.

  • I have an iPod Nano 7th generation, and I keep getting an error saying that iTunes could not recognize my device. I have tried nearly everything,except I don't have admin rights on the computer, and really need help.

    I've tried a lot to get it to work, even using a new charger and putting it into Disk Mode. I really need help. Can anyone give me some advice? Thanks.

    Hi Dawson777,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're receiving the message "An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly" when you connect your iPod nano to your PC. You have tried some good troubleshooting steps already, and you may want to review the additional steps in this article:
