There is no sound in converted for iPod movies

The problem is, and so I can't hear any sound after converting from any movie format to the iPod format using iTunes. Moreover, the new file has a .m4v type, and, as I understand, this type can't carry any sound(correct me if I'm wrong) like the simple .m4a and the combined mp4. Just want to know the decision

Try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the videos; more information on this issue is available in this article.

TS1425 My iPod Classic was working fine all day. Came home and uploaded to voice memos via iTunes, now there is no sound coming from my iPod. I've used both headphones and a docking station. The songs don't even begin, they just skip to the next one.

My iPod Classic was working fine all day. Came home and uploaded 2 files via iTunes, now there is no sound coming from my iPod. I've tried both headphones and a docking station......nothing. The songs don't even engage, they skip to the next one. I've tried rebooting the iPod and still nothing. Any ideas?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you tried resetting the PMU?
I'm not optimistic that this will help any more than the procedures you've already tried, but it won't hurt to try.
Do you still have your OS 9 installation? If so, try booting into OS 9 and see if the problems with the audio are happening there, too. If so, you can bet it's a hardware problem.
How big is your hard drive and how much space remains available on it? If you don't have your OS 9 installation in order to check out whether it's a hardware problem and you have enough available hard drive space, you may want to try an Archive and Install of the OS in order to make sure it isn't an OS X system-wide problem. If that doesn't do it, you could back up your hard drive and restore your software.
All of this may just be spinning your wheels, but it's all stuff you can try before shelling out a lot of money for repairs.

QT7Pro - Movies convert with no sound when converting to iPod

I bought QT7Pro last night, wanting to convert movies (.avi and .mpg) I have on my computer. They play and have sound in QT just fine, but when I go to convert them to MPEG-4 or convert for iPod, the options claim to have no audio track and it winds up being a silent video. How can I convert my movies without losing the sound on them?

QuickTime Pro doesn't (can't) export audio from muxed files (MPEG 1 or 2 and Flash).
Use other software to export those formats to the iPod settings. A quick search through the iPod discussions pages (now over one million views) will give you some software ideas.

Is there a usb 3.0 cable for iPods?

I was wondering if there are USB 3.0 cables for iPods. Any feedback would be great

No. Apple only sells one cable for the iDevices.
The iDevices will work with a USB port but it will be not faster than a USB 2 port.

Converting for iPod Touch

Hello,
I have several mp4 videos that I'd love to have on my iPod Touch. I read that QuickTime Pro was a good way to convert them since my iTunes doesn't seem to have an option to convert for iPod anymore.
Anyways, I've done this several times and I just get the audio, with a white picture. Is this fixable? It also doesn't take every long as I would expect it to take a least an hour for an hour video.
Any ideas?
Thank you for your time

OK, thanks for the clarification. I was getting tangled between the originals and the converted copies.
I'm still not certain, but I have to guess that it is indeed a problem with the aspect ratio of the movie. 1280x544 is an odd size, so I think it may not be converting successfully and so giving a blank video track. I'm going to have to do a bit of research to come up with a suggestion. Meanwhile, perhaps someone else here will have an idea.
Regards.

How can I find a converter for wmv movies

How can I find a converter for wmv movies. I tried some converters, but non was sufficiant enough!

Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft). This will enable you to play the video. To convert it you will need the paid-for Pro version of Flip4Mac.

Sound recorder/converter for .au format

I am using jdk1.1 and it seems it only likes .au format for sound files.
I couldn't use Sound Forge; saving was disabled. And I got some others in shareware.com. But they were hopeless as well. Most just didn't work.
Is there any reliable shareware app out there I can use to convert from .wav to .au or just simply record .au files?

Excuse me, the url has changed:
http://www.syntrillium.com/cep/
Yes! I got it, recorded .au format and played it in my java applet. Great thanks. I should have posted this earlier. would have saved my afternoon.

No sound when exporting for iPOD

Can someone please tell me why I am getting no sound when I export any of my quicktime video for iPOD use? The video comes out great, but there is no sound to accompany it. I upgraded to Quicktime Pro just for this purpose and am having no luck. I have tried a few different videos, but have had no luck with this sound issue.
Please advise anyone....

There is no sound coming from my ipod!!

Hi, I am using an itouch 2nd gen. and there is no sound coming from it when i attach my ear phones to it. I have reset the settings, restored it, switched it off many times, still nothing. The earphones are working just fine. Some help would be great!! Thanks!

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod. Not clear if you did that type of restore
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. I would say not worth it for a 2G iPod
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Replace the jack yourself

Convert for iPod vs Apple TV

Movies from the iTunes store play on both iPods and Apple TV but I have some non-iTunes movies that I need to convert so they will play. I didn't realize there was a difference between the video destined for iPods vs Apple TV. What exactly is the difference between these two conversion commands under the Advanced menu in iTunes?

The following is from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html#formattingvideo
You format any video for iPod or Apple TV the same way. It used to be a slightly different story, but now however, they recommend not modifying specifically for iPod. The specs below should enlighten you...
Formatting Video for the iPod, the iPhone or Apple TV
Back to top
Although iTunes can play a variety of .mp4, .m4v, and .mov video formats, Apple TV, the iPod, and the iPhone require more specific formats.
The iPod and the iPhone support up to 640x480 while Apple TV supports up to 1280x720. To optimize for all three platforms, we recommend that your source file is at least 640 pixels wide and that you use the built-in iPod converters in Compressor ("H.264 for iPod"), QuickTime Pro ("Movie to iPod") or iTunes ("Convert Selection for iPod"). Each of these maintains the aspect ration of your source file and results in an M4V file containing H.264 video (Low Complexity version of the Baseline profile) and AAC-LC audio. If you want to maximize the screen area of a wide-screen TV, your source file should have an aspect ratio of 16:9 (e.g., 640x360). If you want to maximize the screen area on the iPod, your source file should have an aspect ratio of 4:3 (e.g., 640x480).
Because it uses H.264 Main Profile, QuickTime Pro's "Movie to Apple TV" converter will result in a video that will not sync with the iPod.
Refer to the specifications below if you are not using the built-in converters in Compressor, QuickTime Pro, or iTunes.
iPod and iPhone can play the following video formats:
H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Low-Complexity version of the Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
H.264 video, up to 768 kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
Apple TV can display H.264 video, up to 5mbps, 1280x720, 24 fps, Progressive Main Profile. Apple TV supports AAC-LC audio up to 320 Kbps. The gating factors for video are bit rate and frame rate. The following are some sample conversions generated by the QuickTime Pro when choosing "Movie to Apple TV":
Input Output
640x480, 30fps 640x480, 30fps, 3mbps*
1280x720 24fps 1280x720, 24p 5mbps*
1280x720, 30fps 960x540, 30fps 4mbps*
1920x1080, 24fps 1280x720, 24fps 5mbps*
1920x1080, 30fps 960x540, 30fps 4mbps*
1080i up to 60fps 960x540, 30fps 4mbps*
*Represents an average bit rate.

QuickTime Movie Files Won't Convert For iPod using iTunes and QuickTime Pro

I've got a ton, and I mean a ton of QuickTime movie files of music videos that I want to convert to use on the iPod. I tried using "Convert Selection For iPod" in the Advanced Menu on iTunes, but got the following message trying convert a QuickTime file of U2's Beautiful Day:
""Beautiful Day" could not be converted because this file does not allow for saving or conversion."
I purchased QuickTime Pro hoping that the features on Pro would convert the file. When I opened the same file to convert using QuickTime Pro, "Export" under the file menu was grayed out so I couldn't select it.
You'd think that an APPLE QuickTime Movie file that can be played on APPLE'S iTunes and APPLE'S QuickTime Player would be able to be converted to be used in APPLE'S iPod player. (Anybody notice how APPLE is capitalized to point out that the the hardware, software and file formats are ALL Apple?)
Instead I wasted money buying QuickTime Pro when it won't do what I specifically bought it for. Now I have all these QuickTime files which won't play on the iPod.
Can anybody provide some help or assistance on how to accomplish what I'm trying to accomplish???

If the file doesn't allow saving or conversions then it is protected by DRM (Fairplay).
Nothing can help QuickTime Pro convert protected files.

Is There Anyway To Get iOS 7 For iPod 4g?

I was wondering if there was a very easy way to get iOS 7 for iPod 4g without jailbreaking it.
<Edited by Host>

No, as apple saind in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod touch.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

Will there ever be a software update for iPod 4 generation .?

I need to know ASAP it just worries me there won't be and other one o;

Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one. Better off selling it yourself.

I do not know about Walmart

Is there going to be a update for ipod touch 4th generation soon???

I'm really hoping there will be a new update for my ipod soon... it's getting slow

You probably don't need an update if your iPod is slower than it once was. Try the usual steps: restart, reset, restore.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
If you try restoring from a backup and that doesn't fix the problem, try restoring to factory settings and, if the problem goes away, then synching your apps. You'll lose the app data and settings, but if the problem is due to a corrupt cache or settings file, that should cure it.
Regards.
