Transferring music video to another PC

I just read the post where you can't burn the music videos/tv shows to cd and was wondering if there is a way to transfer them to my laptop from the desktop to be "permanently" on the laptop, not just thru the shared folder on the network I have set up. If I take the laptop with me and want to watch them on it instead of the iPod (which will only be a rare occasion...I love my iPod)how can I get them on there permanently or do I just need to make sure I purchase and download them to the laptop.
Hoep this makes sense.

I found the tutorial on copying music to a computer authorized for sharing on a network. Doesn't mention videos or tv shows so I'm assuming and hoping I can do the same with them to get them permanently on my laptop too?
It seems there's more answers to things here rather than the iTunes discussion board but if I should post this there I will. It just seems there soooo many knowledgeable people with the 5G and what can be done and not done.

  • Transfering music video to iphone

  • Is it possible to play one music video after another in itunes/front row?

    Hi all. Can anyone help me with this problem? When I use the movie part of front row to watch and listen to music vids I have front row goes back to the movie menu after each video has ended. Is it at all possible to watch one video after another without having to scroll down to the next music video after each music video has finished playing? Not sure if im being incredibly dense but any help would be greatly appreciated. I have Apple Care and they have no idea what im on about!
    Thanks Rob

    I've been doing some experimenting on this. I made a smart playlist in iTunes to gather all my music videos (which I have previously tagged with 'VIDEO' in the comment field).
    In Frontrow, iTunes will not play the video at all- it just shows a single frame and plays the audio; in Movies, music videos, it will play one music video correctly, but then go back to the music video menu. This seems to be a known problem.
    My solution is to go back to the desktop and use iTunes in the old fashioned way! Selecting my new VIDEO smart playlist will play all my music videos in any order I like using the normal parameters i.e. random, alphabetical by artist, album, name etc..
    Hope this helps.

  • Help Transfering Music Videos from Mac To PC

    Hi everyone! We have a Mac and a PC at home, both with iTunes. I'm trying to transfer music videos from my Mac to the PC. Both computers are authorized. I'm copying the music videos to an external hard drive from the Mac. After connecting the drive to the PC I double click the music video and it loads into iTunes, however, when I try to play it I hear the music but the video image is totally distorted. This does not happen with music videos purchased after the iTunes 7 upgrade. Those transfer well. It only happens to the older iTunes music videos. Is this normal? Should this be happening? If so, is there a way of converting the older videos so they play in iTunes 7 for PC?

  • Transferring Music/Videos/Photos on Zen Vision: M prob

    [color="#ff00ff"><font face="Verdana" color="#009999">I seriously need help soon. This has been happening to me ever since Sunday. Whenever i try to music/videos/photos on my mp3 player a message pops up saying Acess Denied. And whenever i try to do it in windows media player and creative media source it says unknown error. I called Creative and a man told me to reformat it. How do i do that? Did anyone have a similar problem. PLEASE HELP!

    For reformatting (if your sure some guy told you) go to my computer and find your player. It should be one of the disk dri'ves. Right click and press format and you can either do full format or quick format. I dunno if that will del your firmware tho. gl

  • Transfering music videos to iPod

    I am using the latest iTunes version (9.0.0.70) and an iPod (3rd generation, can play videos). I bought 3 music videos in the iTunes Store, they are now in my "Music" library. How can I transfer them to my iPod so that I can see them at iPod > Videos > music videos?
    It seems that I can only create a playlist in my "Music" library.
    On my iPod at the "Music" sync-tab I see an option to sync music videos as well. How do I have to use this function?
    Shortly asked: how do I correctly transfer music videos on my iPod?
    Thanks a lot!

    OK, I created a nromal playlist, made a sync and now the 3 music videos show up in the correct section on the iPod. I thought that I would have to transfer the music videos into the "Movie" section of iTunes somehow...

  • Transferring music,video & pics from ipod to computer

    I have been looking at ways to transfer all the stuff on my ipod to my new computer. I have actually done this before, but I totally forgot how exactly. Also, at that time, I had no pictures on my ipod and I had alot less music and videos. All of the applications that I have been looking at seem to be made for older versions of iTunes as most of them don't say anything about transferring videos or pictures. The one free one that seems ok is iPodRip or the ImTOO computer transfer. I just want to know if I decide to use either one of those or to manually take all of my songs, videos etc off my ipod, would I be able to take everything off of my ipod? Basically, would I be able to restore everything?

  • Can I use a DRM-Protected Music video in my IDVD project.

    Can I download a DRM protected music video to a IDVD project and burn a DVD. The music video is not showing up in the media window in IDVD. Only ITunes Plus songs and videos, make it to the media window. I can't drag the video directly off ITunes. They say, I can burn a up to seven copy's of the DMR protected video/music, but how.. Thanks for any help.

    Didn't work, Window came up saying "Could not be converted because protected files cannot be converted to other formats. I was able to burn it to a DVD, it came up as a MPEG 4 file. Then I first went to the ITunes tool bar Preference>Advanced>importing>importing using>Aiff Encoder. Then tool bar again File> import. Music video imported another copy to ITunes library. Right mouse clicked second copy> convert selection to Aiff. Then "Could not convert" window came up.

  • ITunes 10.2.1.1, Win 7 (64 bit) Crash when switching Music Videos

    This problem has been plaguing me on both my laptop and desktop machines since early iTunes 10 versions. Randomly iTunes will stop responding when it switches from one Music Video to another and can only be fixed by killing the process and restarting iTunes. Thats really inconvenient when I'm working with music in the background having to fix it every 5-7 minutes.
    I highly doubt this is a driver issue, my Windows 7 installs are all up to date. I've reinstalled both machines trying to resolve the issue, I've rebuilt my iTunes libraries on the reinstalled machines. I've checked Quicktime versions and reinstalled them and it happens on different videos at different intervals.
    Any thoughts?

    Unfortunately no. I dont have any IM client installed on my desktop. I do have a G35 keyboard though which allows you to see whats playing.

  • Synching music and music videos

    I know it is possible to synch the iPhone with two different computers if you designate different types of information to be synched with each. The question is, can you synch music files with one computer and music videos with another? I ask because it looks like iTunes is setup to treat music and music videos as one type of information source.

    No. The only types of info that can be synced with multiple computers are contacts, calendar events, and bookmarks. iTunes media (music, videos, apps, ringtones, as well as photos, although those are not really iTunes media) can only be synced with one computer

  • How do i get music videos to play like the music does on my ipad, for example one right after another and shuffle

    I need to know how I can get the music videos on my IPad to play like the music does.  What I mean id setting up a playlist, shuffle, and have them play one right after another instead of going back to the main screen.

    At the top of the playlist where it shows the playlist title and the number of songs, there are two icons. Click the "play" triangle to add the entire playlist to "Up Next", or the "shuffle" symbol to do the same thing but in random order. But the currently playing track will stop playing, and all the songs in "Up Next" will be removed (replaced by the ones from this playlist).
    If you hold down the "option" key while clicking those icons, the currently playing song will continue playing, and the new playlist will be added to "Up Next" (above the songs that were already there).

    If you add music videos to Up Next playlist, then go to look at the album cover playing screen, then go to add another song from different playlist, you no longer can see Up Next, just go to full screen mode button. Using remote app iPhone 5 to play out of iTunes. It looks like it works fine for regular music, but for music videos you can't see your up next unless you go back on the computer to change once you've left the screen. When using the remote app, you shouldn't need to go to iTunes on the PC to view or edit Up Next already added. See first image, you can hit upper right and get back to Up Next (second image). Third image is music video, where you can't get back to Up Next, just swap between full screen and not. I hoped 3.0.1 would have the answer, no luck!

    I would love that feature. I can't stand useing my computer with a single wall paper anymore (I have 500 anime pics that i rotate between every 2 mins ) If you could make the vision rotate background every x minutes or every time the player is turned on, it would be totally amazeningly sweet!!!! (i might have to go out and buy one then :P)
    I just hope that creative has better firmware support with the vision than they have had with the touch.
    Once again, great review

  • HT201269 I am trying to transfer Music and Music Videos from an iPad to a new iPad 4.  I tried the backup route and everything transferred except the music and music videos.  I don't want to do that again because it will mess up other applications. Any su

    I have switched to a new iPad and transferred all the needed aps, included some high-priced ones for my business.  The only thing I can't do is get my music and music videos to move.  I originally tried to backup the old unit and restore to the new unit  and this was successful for a lot of the aps, it didn't work for the music.  It also messed up several aps that I had already initialized on the new unit and I had to go through the whole process again.  How can I move my music without damaging other aps?
    Thanks for any help.

    The contents of the Music and Videos apps aren't included in a device's backup. If you don't have them on your computer's iTunes library then if they are iTunes purchases then you should be able to copy them back from your old iPad via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases and you can then sync them to your new iPad. If some/all of them are not iTunes purchases and you don't have them on your computer nor on your backup of your library then there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to copy them back : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
