Scrolling the IPod movie window

I can't see the 3rd column of my movie list when I scroll the IPod movies in ITune wondow.
Is there a way to change the view of the window?
There is no scroll bar and I have to use the cursor on my keyboard to move up and down the thumbnails.
Moving the cursor to the left will not display the 3rd column.
Thanks

I have been using iPod touch and iTunes with Windows XP - no problems. I now have a new computer with Windows 7 Home Premium. When I try to sync the iPod with Windows 7 and iTunes it will not transfer all my photographs. What can I do?

When I tried to sync my iPod Touch with my new computer none of the photographs were synced. I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. When I did it the first time the photographs were all muddled up in their albums. When I tried to sync again the photographs were all removed. On the third try I received an error message something like 'Unable to sync photographs program cannot be found.' Can anyone help. (It may be to do with Windows 7 and Libraries??)

Sizing the Flash Movie Window with HTML

Hello,
I don't know why I'm having such a problem with this, but I'm
trying to open my Flash Player in a locked dimention (600 x 450).
what's happening is an <a href is opening the html file
published with the swf... which in turn of course launches the
swf... I've been trying to make the swf pop up at 600x450 but so
far no luck. It just pops up as the same size as the previous
window. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? oh, i'd also like to
have the swf pop up without the menus/toolbars/etc.
Thanks!

Converting iPod from Windows to Mac

We recently purchased our first Mac, a MiniMac. My son has a iPod Video that was originally formatted for Windows. When hooking it up to the MiniMac, it stated that it would have to be reset to factory settings, thus loosing his video, photos and music. To top it off, the PC that he synchronized to in the past is no longer here.
I can hook the iPod video up to a PC Workstation (Windows XP) and can see the HD at the same time but can only really see the photos. The music and videos seem to be archived.
I was hoping to copy the photos, music and videos on the PC workstation, hook up the iPod to the MiniMac and reset to the Mac factory settings and then import the saved photos, music and videos.
I am a bit stuck right now and could use any advice. Thanks

If you transfer the songs etc to the PC and then restore the iPod on the Mac you won't be able to use the iPod on Windows. An iPod formatted for Mac won't run natively on a PC because the Windows OS does not support the HFS Plus file system and therefore will not see the drive. There third party programs that will allow you to use a Mac formatted iPod on Windows, this is one for instance gets good reviews: XPlay 2
With the songs back on the iPod you could use Senuti as recommended above to transfer from the iPod to the Mac. Alternatively connect the PC and the Mac and move the songs from one to another: Networking with a Windows PC

Convert iPod from Windows to Mac

I've been using my iPod (30GB) with Windows and am just now switching everything to a new MacBook Pro. Do I need to do anything to switch my iPod from Windows to Mac, or does it just sync with the new Mac without my having to do anything?

Macs can read Windows formatting so your iPod should work Fine on your MacBook. However if you don't intend using the iPod on Windows again you should consider restoring it and formatting it on the Mac. If you keep it in Windows format you'll have to connect it back to a PC to make any firmware updates otherwise the formatting will be changed. One other thing, if you haven't transferred your music from the PC to the Mac you won't be able to sync the iPod if you do you'll lose what's on it. To be sure you don't accidentally erase the content you should set the iPod to manual update until your music is on the Mac.
If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting to your new computer and an empty iTunes. You will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
You can also use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘ Apple) keys. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and it will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. You should then be able to change your settings: iTunes Keyboard Shortcuts for OSX
Just some additional information in regard to moving the music from your iPod in case you no longer have the PC. If you have any iTMS purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers has been introduced with iTunes 7 A paragraph on it has been added to this article: Transfer iTunes Store purchases using iPod
The transfer of non iTMS content such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there's a manual method of copying songs from your iPod to your Mac. The procedure is a bit involved but if you're interested it's available at this link: Two-way Street: Moving Music Off the iPod
If you prefer something more automated there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve music files and playlists from your iPod, this is just a selection. I use Senuti but have a look at the web pages and documentation for the others too, you'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos and games as well. You can also read reviews of some of them here: Wired News - Rescue Your Stranded Tunes
Senuti Mac Only
iPodRip Mac Only
PodWorks Mac Only
PodView Mac Only
iPodAccess Mac & Windows
YamiPod Mac & Windows
PodUtil Mac & Windows
iPodCopy Mac & Windows
Keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync again.

Changing Thumbnail for iPod Movie in Quicktime

I have Quicktime Pro and I use it to export to movies to my iPhone.
I know you can create a poster frame from any frame in the movie. However, I'd like to make a poster frame that isn't included in the movie. And by that I mean, I'd like the iPod movie thumbnail to be an image not from the movie. I'd like it to be a graphic, and I don't want that graphic to appear in the movie.
Is there any clever way to go about doing this?

Use the Finder Get Info window:
Leopard creates "custom" icons for most file formats. Use it to do the work.
Create your image file (or use one already created). Open the Get Info window and in the upper left corner you'll see a small icon of your file.
Single click (to highlight) and Command-c to Copy.
Switch to your iPod file Get Info window, highlight the icon and Command-v to Paste.
The custom icon should now appear as "artwork" in apps like Front Row, iTunes and hardware devices like Apple TV and the iPods.

Do I need to format my iPod on Windows to use it as a hard drive on a PC?

I use my iPod on a MacBook with my iTunes library, but now want to ALSO use it as a simple hard drive on my PC for files transfer.
In the Windows explorer, I am told that it is not formatted and I am proposed to format it, which would erase all data on it.
Do I need to format my iPod on Windows to use it as a hard drive on a PC?
(I don not have iTunes installed on that PC currently)
And if I have to format it, will all my music be gone, but can I simply then synch it again on my MacBook with my iTunes library?
Thanks a lot in advance.

To use the iPod Classic on both the Mac and Windows PC, you need to format it in FAT32 filesystem structure, which both OS can recognise.
Yes, formatting it in FAT32, using iTunes, will erase all music and data in your iPod, but that is no problem if you have all the music in your Mac iTunes library.
So to do this,
Install the Latest iTunes in your windows PC, run itunes and check that all is in order (you can navigate, play some sample songs in itunes.)
Connect your iPod to the Windows PC, USB 2.0 port (please dont use USB hub with iPod Classic, -my bad personal experience, freezing itunes and windows)
iTunes will pop a windows asking you to reformat it in FAT32 and Restore
Click ok. (HERE there maybe some problem, if your iPod hardisk is not in tiptop condition)
When Restore is complete, eject the iPod
Connect it to your Mac and sync iTunes library.
If you want to use the iPod in Windows as an external hd, you have to set it in Disk Mode. first then Windows will recognise it as a portable HD.
Good luck! on this big undertaking.

TrevorQ's idea works great! Thanks! I had already gone and gotten my second nano 4GB and the same thing happened both times after using the updater - called support on first and they had no answer. Thanks a bunch - was starting to lose hope after it happened again on the second one. Must be a problem with the updater 4-23-06 and the newest ITunes upgrade.
If you have trouble with the right click - after the ipod is highlighted then click on the file menu and play the waiting game again - format should appear in the menu after an extended wait. Good luck all!

Mac formatted iPOD to windows

My ipod is formatted for my powerbook itunes the trouble is i have itunes also on a pc that has a different music library and iwant to be able to add the pc library to my ipod without having to re-format it to windows and loose all my data.I do not have access to my mac so iwill not be able to back my data up to the mac. Thanks

If your iPod is formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). There are third party programs that will allow you to use a Mac formatted iPod on Windows. XPlay for instance gets good reviews and has the added functionality to let you copy your songs back to iTunes. Once you have your songs saved to the PC you can go ahead and restore the iPod for Windows. You can purchase XPlay at this link: XPlay 3

Placing content on the IPOD as an external HD and bypassing ITunes

when I connect my IPOD via USB to my computer it shows up as an additional drive. however, the content is not visible in Explorer. is it possible to add content (eg music) to the IPOD just like you would with an external drive and bypass ITunes? if so, are there instructions for doing this? thanks.

you can use the iPod as an external storage drive, but content that is added to the iPod using windows explorer will not play on the iPod. see:

Problem with the iPod memory status colour bar in iTunes 7

Hello
The iPod memory status bar in iTunes (the one with different colour bars that show the proportion of total memory filled by music, video, photos, other) says that 26gb of my 30gb iPod is filled, and 26gb is free. Clearly that cannot be the case as that's way over 100% of the iPod's memory. Resetting the iPod has not solved this problem as when I fill it back up with songs, videos etc this glitch returns. Can anyone help please?

I tried formatting the ipod with windows! in the end of it windows says that it was not able to format the drive properly. then I click ok, open itunes, restore the ipod, try to sync again and have the problem that after a while the whole thing freezes... no more errors....just from the moment i disconnect the ipod manually from the cable, everything gets back to normal life again! I do not know what to do! do you guys think, my computer is too old or maybe my ipod's broke???
I'm despairing people...never had problems like that until itunes7! I tried as well to close all the other working programs with the task manager... doesn't change it!
Thx for the help!

Reformatting an iPod for Windows with a Mac

I have a 4G iPod that I'd like to use as a portable HD. My school only has Windows machines, so it obviously needs to be Windows formatted. Unfortunately (heh) I only have access to Macs at home, and cannot use the school's PCs for this. Is there any way I can use my Mac to format my iPod for Windows?

Is there any way I can use my Mac to format my iPod for Windows?
No.
You either need to reformat the iPod for Windows (using a Windows computer) as you previously stated or use some 3rd party software (which is not free) like MacDrive or XPlay2 that allow Mac formatted iPods to be used on the Windows platform.
Neither of these options would appear suitable given your circumstances.

Photos on my iPod and Windows/Mac issue

A friend of a friend is selling . . .
APPLE iPOD Video 30Gb (5th generation)
So, two questions: if it has been used in conjunction with a Windows-based PC is this likely to give me grief if I wish to use it with my Mac?
or will it need reformatting and is this likely to cause problems?
Secondly, can I view photos and store on it?

"is this likely to give me grief if I wish to use it with my Mac?
or will it need reformatting and is this likely to cause problems?"
It won't necessarily need reformatting becuase Macs can read and write to Windows formatted iPods. However, you would then need to make any future software updates to the iPod on Windows. Much better to reformat it for your Mac when you get it.
"can I view photos and store on it?"
Yes you can.

Charging and using the Ipod at the same time

I have a MAC and my Ipod is formatted for MAC. While the Ipod is plugged in to the MAC with the USB cable, I can eject it and use the Ipod while it is charging. At work, I plug the Ipod in to a Windows machine. It mounts although it is not formatted for Windows and it charges. When I un-mount it, leaving it plugged in, it doesn't seem to charge. Is there a way that I can use the Ipod while it is plugged in to the Windows machine and see it charging? There seems to be no info. online.

Jack,
An iPod formatted for a Mac will not work on a Windows PC. See the extract below from the iPod FAQ. However you could try formatting it for Windows and see if it works for you on both. As you can see the FAQ says that some iPods may work however it's not supported by Apple.
Question: I have both a Mac and a PC. Will my iPod work on both?
Answer: No, not at the same time. iPod is configured for either Mac or PC. You can use the iPod Updater to restore iPod to work with a Mac or a PC (depending on which version of the updater you use). See "Restoring iPod to factory settings" for more information. Note: Using the iPod for Mac on a PC, or using the iPod for Windows on a Mac, is not supported by Apple. FAT32 is the format used by Windows, and while some FAT32 iPod models may work with your Mac, Apple only supports using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac. For more information see the iPod shuffle Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
