Transferring video to iTunes

Hey, how do I transfer videos I have recorded from my iPhone 4 to iTunes? I am using Windows, not Mac. So please, no Mac suggestions. Thank you.

Problems transferring video from iTunes to iPad

Can anyone help with transferring video from iTunes across to an iPad. This has worked smoothly in the past but now nothing seems to transfer across. Within iTunes on my computer, I've opened the iPad and chosen a new movie to transfer (ticking the box adjacent to the film). There apperas to be plenty of space left on the iPad (currently 3.98GB) .Then I've clicked Sync. At the top of the iTunes window, the iPad is shown as syncing (very quickly) but when I check on the ipad, the movie hasn't transferred.
Next, I've disconneceted the iPad from iTunes and restarted it - I've also tried restarting within iTunes - then reconnected to my computer and tried a fresh Sync. Same problem; the movie won't transfer. On the list of movies shown in iTunes as being on my iPad, the new movie shows up (albeit in grey - so not loaded). As it's not displaying in videos on the iPad, I can't delete it to start afresh.
Any suggestions welcome....

Thanks for the link. As noted I've managed the transfer on many occasions before, but for some reason the iPad and iTunes no longer feel like syncing. I did finally manage the transfer by restarting the computer (as well as the iPad) then trying to Sync the iPad. It shouldn't be such an issue however!
With regard to the home sharing, point taken but my wifi doesn't reach the room where I want to watch the movie on the iPad. This option doesn't work for me...

Problem transferring video from iTunes to iPod

I can't transfer video from iTunes to iPod. DVD movies converted to MP4 using Cucusoft software and a TV show purchased from iTunes Music Store won't transfer. The only video that has tranferred successfully is a video podcast called "Tiki Bar". It did ok.

Connect the iPod and go to edit-->preferenes. Click the iPod tab. Click the videos tab under that. Make sure automatically update all videos is selected.
Note: Your preferences may look slightly different.
Also, try playing the video you purchased from the iTunes Music Store for a few seconds on your computer.

Why isn't my itouch not transfering videos to itunes??

every time i download videos on my itouch then i cannot transfer them to my computer through itunes... it just doesn't do it... even if i try to do it manually... i have to download the videos using my computer and that takes twice the time than just doing it by transfering the videos, and it's only with the videos, music is ok... but seriously what the heck is going on??

Just what app are you using?
It sounds lke you are using an app to save a video from the internet and then using using File Sharing to get it on the computer. That is manual only.

What am I doing wrong when transfering videos from itunes to iPod?

This is the message I am getting:
SOME OF THE VIDEOS IN YOUR ITUNES LIBRARY, INCLUDING THE VIDEO..., WERE NOT COPIED TO THE IPOD BECAUSE CANNOT BE PLAYED ON THIS IPOD.
I don't think I am doing anything wrong because I have used the same process for other videos and they play perfect.
These are the steps I take to tranfer my videos:
1. Convert videos using VIDEORA iPod Converter
2. Play the viedo on iTunes to make sure it was converted right.
3. Update my iPod.

"the converted video plays, but without sound. it is the same on itunes and on the pod"
You are trying to convert a MPEG file that is Muxed. Please read on how to tell what file you have:

Transferring videos to itunes

I am unable to transfer videos from my computer into the itunes music library list. They always transfer into my movie library list. How can I transfer them to my music library?

No. There's tons of room on my iPod. Problem isn't there. The problem is that I cannot get the videos to go to iTunes. I can get everything on iTunes to go to my iPod, but I can't get the videos on my computer to go to iTunes. And they are in the right format.

Move video from iTunes to external HD and then delete from internal HD?

How do I move certain TV shows and movies from my iTunes library (stored on my internal HD) to a new external HD (it's a 500GB WD Passport Studio)? I want to free up some space on my computer so after I transfer the videos to my external HD I plan on deleting the originals. If I do this, will I be able to easily plug in my external HD and play the transferred videos on iTunes without any problems?
I've searched all over for an easy answer to this but can't find any. Please help! Help of ANY kind would be amazing!

iTunes doesn't really have a way to move only TV/movies. It can only move the whole shebang - music, podcasts, TV, movies, apps, all of it.
It moves it all when you run the consolidate command.
If you only want to move a few things, you can move the TV/movies yourself using Windows Explorer. This will make itunes lose the paths. You would then have to right-click>Get Info on the items you moved, and browse to their new locations, so itunes knows where they are.
If you are moving a lot of files, it might be easier to
- delete them in itunes
- move the files using Win Exp
- re-add them to itunes
The drawback to this method is losing ratings, play counts, and date added metadata. But you wouldn't have to re-locate them for itunes one-by-one.

Video transfers without using iTunes

Hi. is there a way of transferring videos from my external hard drive directly to my iphone for viewing without normal syncing with iTunes? i do not have enough space on my mac to copying all the videos into iTunes to be able to sync to my iPhone.
or is there a way of using iTunes to import the file without copying it directly onto my mac. if memory serves, iTunes on windows only collects the links or filepaths to the music files, is there a way of doing this on mac just for the videos and then syncing the videos directly to my iPhone.

thank you. i shall try that very soon. on a related note. does the iPhone play avi /divx coded videos? avi videos that i do have in iTunes do not sync...

Issues Transferring Video Purchased on iTunes to My Video iPod..Help!

Just bought a new 60 BG Video iPod. I purchased a few videos from iTunes. However, when I connect my iPod to iTunes, only my music is transferred. The videos are not transferred. When I try to transfer the video to my iPod, I get the following messages...
'Update not possible. Error Message -50.'
'The disk could not be read from or written to.'
Anyone able to help me? Much appreciated...

There is no legal way to play videos purchased from the iTunes Store on an Archos player. They can be played on your computer or on an iPod with video.

Trouble transferring videos purchased in iTunes to video iPod

I found this to be a bit curious. I just purchased the White Stripes' "Hardest Button to Button" video in iTunes (along with 4 other music videos from other bands), and I was unable to transfer the file to my video iPod (the other four videos transferred without problem). The message said that it could not be played on this iPod. Is this a widespread or unique problem? I thought all videos purchased on iTunes were compatible with the video iPod, if not, is there a way to determine this before purchasing? Is there a way to solve this problem without purchasing additional software?

Unhelpful boilerplate response from the iTunes customer service team below. I have all of the updates (for iTunes & video iPod) and still no luck. I've even done the restore to factory settings thing, and also, no luck.
Has anybody else encountered this quirk (see my original question) and managed to work around it without purchasing any additional software?

Problems transferring videos to iPhone, iTunes and now QuickTime

So I wanted to add a video to my iPhone 4S, but iTunes would not allow this, as the "file could not be played on this iPhone". After reading a few threads about this, I tried adding the video to iTunes to see if it appeared under "home videos" or "recently added", and then convert it, so it would be watchable on my iPhone, but nothing happened. After reading some other discussions where someone said you should open the video in QuickTime and export it to iTunes, I tried that, but QuickTime says "the movie's file format isn't recognized". I tried this with .mov, .mp4, .avi, and so on, but QuickTime doesn't want any file format. The files open and play in VLC just fine.
What's the problem here? Once I think I have the solution, there's another problem, and I'm starting to get pretty angry with this.
Mac OSX 10.7.5., iPhone 4S: IOS 5.1.1., iTunes 11.0.1. (12), QuickTime: 10.1., if anyone's wondering.

Has to be synced. But you can change it so that only the ones checked will sync. Go into iTunes with your iPhone connected and scroll through the tabs. There will be an option to sync only the checked media. So uncheck the ones you do not want.
There is no drag feature available for iPhone like there is for iPod. It has to sync to folders and playlists

Transferring video from camera roll on iPhone 5 into iTunes library on mac as a movie file

What is the simplest way to add video (taken from my iphone camera...so shows up under camera roll) into my itunes library as a movie? I'm new to the iphone and would think this should be simple but I can only seem to import the videos into iPhoto. Hoping there is a way to do this wirelessly.

On a Mac, you use iPhoto or Image Capture to import your videos, not iTunes. If you then want them in your iTunes library, you can export them from iPhoto to iTunes.

Problem transfering video to ipod......HELP PLEASE

i have put videos onto itunes(converted them using videoria)they show up on my itues and in my library but when i try to drag them onto my ipod it doesnt highlight. no response at all. i can only drag them to my "pary shuffle" i know this question has probly been answere a million times but i cant figure out what im doing wrong. im even looking in the folder that videoria saves the transfered songs. still no luck adding them to the ipod. please any feed back will help

I have had this problem, and it deals with the amount of data. It is the Average Bitrate, it should be below 500 kbps. Also try using handbrake or DVD2Pod. I use MacTheRipper to rip the DVD and DVD2oneX to size the DVD to under 4.3 Gig. Also a program that helps is DVDxDV which truns a VOB file to a movie.

Error message when trying to transfer/sync video from itunes to ipod

I have never had this problem before, but I just purchased a couple music videos from itunes and then was trying to manually transfer/sync them to my ipod and then I receive the error message "Attempting to copy to the disk failed. The disk could not be read from or written to"
I can transfer/sync music just fine still, and I have transferred music videos in the past. And I checked the info tab on the music videos and they are "protected content" but I have been able to transfer other protected content videos from itunes before.
I have tried restarting itunes and the ipod, putting it in disk mode and nothing seems to work. I would appreciate someone's help, THANK YOU!

Have you had a chance to look at this troubleshooting page? It may be of some help: "Disk cannot be read from or written to" when syncing iPod
