Transferring Videos To 30GB, Brand New Black, Flat Screen Video/Color Ipod

Well after reading the title, you guessed it. I can't do that. Why is this? Do i need to convert the videos to another type of video? Are their only certain ones that can go on it?

These links will help.
Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing video with iTunes and iPod.
Any video file must meet the following criteria to play on the iPod.
H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
-or-
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats.
To playback DVD that you own on the iPod, you would need some 3rd party conversion software since iTunes and Quicktime/Quicktime Pro will not do this. Videora is one such program, but there are others.

  • Brand new Mac Mini Screen Flash

    So I bought a brand new 500gb Mac Mini today hoping to use it with my HP monitor. I haven't got a keyboard yet but just plugged it in (using HDMI) to see if it is working and was presented with the mac setup flashing on the screen every second or so. I then plugged it into a TV and everything was working fine. The monitor works fine with any laptop and my Xbox 360 so this is very confusing. Is the Ipad Mini not compatible with certain monitors? My monitor is an HP w2207h. Please help this is very frustrating!

  • Brand new Nano 7g screen won't slide one music downloaded

    I've bought a brand new Nano 7g, and once I've loaded my music the screen won't slide.  I took it back and exchanged it, and the same thing happened, but it was fine before I loaded my stuff because I checked.  I though it must be a duff batch, so I got a refund and went elsewhere, but the same has happened again, so it must be something I've done?

    By fiddling around I seem to have fixed it, but thanks for looking, was really at the end of my tether!

  • Transferring GB2 Projects to brand new MacBook with GB3 - How to???

    Hey everyone,
    I just recently purchased a MacBook with GB3, glad to be a part of the community , but i would like to get some advice.
    I have a lot (20 or 30) GB2 projects, with multitrack recordings from a studio mic, and i would like to transfer them to the macbook with GB3 and be able to work on them.
    What files/folders/settings do i need to transfer to do this? I want to be able to edit the files as they were in GB2 on my old machine.
    I have seen threads on here about how GB3 wont open after transferring files, and i dont want to wreck my setup on the new book.
    Any tips? How to?
    Much thanks in advance.
    --Nick

  • Swapping brand new black iPhone 4 for a white one

    I recently lost my white iPhone 4 and managed to pay for a new one through my insurance, however I was sent a black iPhone 4. I have not used the new phone nor removed it from its packaging. Would I be able to trade this in at the apple store for a white iPhone 4?
    Thanks.

    If you didn't get the iPhone from the Apple Store, then the chances of them allowing an exchange is very small, but you can ask. Most dealers, and this includes the Apple Stores, will only accept a return of a product purchased from that store.
    Good luck.

  • HP 5514 not printing with brand new black ink cartridge

    Ok so I have the same issue as everyone else here - new cartridges but won't print - specifically black. Other colors print fine. Cartridges have expiration of 2016 and were made in China. I put a new one in last night - got 2 pages printed out and all was good, color printed, black printed. Woke up this morning and no black - nothing, nada, zilch. I did everything recommended - multiple passes on cleaning, checked vent holes, etc etc etc...have now lost most of my color ink from printing the test pages - still no black. 
    So my unit of course is out of warranty - so now what? Like the others - product was not overly used - a few pages a week - nothing massive. So it should still have life left you would think.
    Next steps please? Really can't afford a new printer no matter how cheap they are these days...and with no warranty - what are my available options????
    Thanks - btw I worked for HP for a number of years in a small division if that gets me any brownie points....

    Hi @LAnn15,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are running into some print quality issues on your HP Photosmart 5514, you are unable to print in black ink.
    I would like you to continue here: Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages, I understand you may have done some of these steps already but I need you to complete all steps in order to resolve the missing black issue you are experiencing.
    Please note: There are three printhead cleaning stages. Complete all three stages if necessary. If the printhead is badly clogged, it might require another cleaning cycle. If so, wait 30 minutes after the last (third) cleaning stage to start the first stage of the cleaning process over again.
    If you are still unable to print in black ink, I suspect the issue may be the printer and not the cartridge. Please let me know which Country/Region you are in as well as the product Warranty status: HP Warranty Checker
    I hope to hear from you soon.
    Thanks,
    HevnLgh

  • Brand new black macbook, not enough battery time!

    hello! i got my macbook about a month ago. it will usually go about 3.5 hours on a charge if my screen is at the lowest brightness setting. this morning i turned it on, fully charged, put my screen on fully dark and set garage band to record. i do this a lot (i'm a musician and record all of my private lessons and practice sessions with garage band, and barely ever remember to bring my charger). this morning, however, after 45 minutes of having GB run with the screen on black, i turned the screen back on only to find that the battery said i had only 50 minutes of charge left. before i started recording, i had it on for about 10 minutes, in which time it went from 99% charge to 90% charge.
    i have had an issue with the fan seemingly always running, to the point that if i am listening to music i have to put earbuds in to even have a shot at hearing it (granted, it's classical music, so it's quiet to start out with, but still). i read a post about the fan problem, and pretty much as soon as i opened it, my fan quieted down (figures). for instance, right now, i only have safari running. no music playing. and it's on full blast. any help is greatly appreciated for either of these issues. thank you!

    Hi robyn_basson: It may be worth checking to see if there is "hung" application. Go to Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor. Once it is running, click to show CPU, sort by CPU Activity, and also select show all processes and see if there is an activity or application using a high amount of the CPU. Print jobs seem to be a popular culprit.
    Good Luck

  • My brand new iPad 2 screen just flickered form the game I was playing to black several times very quickly?

    I just bought an iPad 2 it's only about 5days old and the screen j flickered to black and back to the game I was playing several times very quickly. I haven't got any apps or watched anything that should cause a virus and I am worried about it any ideas?

    Try a Reset...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

  • I was given an iPhone 5s (not brand new) and the screen is totally smashed. It connects to iTunes and beeps constantly when I charge it but the screen is totally black and remains that way no matter what I try?

    I've tried restoring it and resetting it to factory settings but nothing is working. Can an iPhone get so smashed that the screen stops working completely? If I got the screen fixed would it be fixed? ahhh

    Sure it can. The screen is a sensitive part of the phone. Whatever caused the glass to break may have caused other more extensive damage to the internla components.
    ChristianAnthony3 wrote:

    No way to answer that.  Its impossible to know if only the screen is damaged or if something else suffered damage when the screen broke.
    Judging by the constant beeping, I would think its developed a short or some other failure somewhere from the accident.

  • Brand new Black 3gs 16 Gb help

    I just bought this phone 2 days ago, and as I've come to find out I believe I'm actually missing certain settings. The setting that allows me to set a password everytime it locks is not there, also when i hold my finger down on the screen the apps don't wiggle for me to rearrange them. Anyone else having these problems? I had technical support call me and all they could tell me was to restart the phone which didn't work.

    Well, it appears you have a number of issues going there is right. However, just for your information, this support article talks about the 0xE error that you identify.

  • Problems transfering videos to ipod since installing itunes 6.02

    So, i just upgraded to itunes 6.02 and now i can't transfer videos onto my ipod. It tells me they aren't in the correct format or a format the ipod can play. Before i upgraded i had absolutely no problems. I have tried taking off files that uploaded fine with the previous version of itunes and uploading them with the newer version and they don't work either. I've got the latest updater software and that's made no difference.
    I've used both Videora and Apollo ipod convertors and neither make any difference. I've tried both mpeg4 and h.264 formats, but that doesn't work either.
    Why do apple bring out software that creates new bugs?!

    I just bought a 5th gen and cannot transfer videos.
    The videos are a computer format (could not play on TV) and I converted them to play on Ipod like help file stated. It stated that I can drag and drop to Ipod icon that shows when I connect the Ipod and use ITunes. Well no can do! It transfered to ITunes and will play in ITunes but cannot get to Ipod. My Ipod has a video section so I know I can have them on it. I tried with manual and automatic update selected.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks

  • 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.

  • Problem transfering video to ipod

    I bought some video files (tv episodes) from the iTunes store and for some reason some of them will not transfer onto my iPod. The first few files worked fine and play on my iPod fine too (it's a season's worth of a TV show I'm discussing here). But the last few downloads refuse to transfer. They will play on the computer but when I drag them onto my iPod - a new 160G classic - it tells me "XX was not copied to the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod."
    Incidentally, I am running the latest iTunes version (7.4.2 (4)) and iPod OS.
    It's especially strange because only some of the video files have this problem, not all of them. And as I said they play fine on iTunes on the computer.
    I checked and made sure my computer is authorized for my account. Rebooting, ejecting and replugging the iPod, or restarting iTunes doesn't help. Any advice?

    I had a similar problem once and solved it by coping the items to another folder. I then removed the items using the iTunes interface and said "Yes" to the "remove video and delete file" question. I then closed iTunes. After opening it again I used the File > Add To Library menu option and added the items again. It worked for me, maybe it wil work for you as well. You may end up needing to do all that, only to find out you need to re-download the titles from the iTunes Store again. Good luck.

  • I transfered videos from iPod to iTunes on Windows 7 PC but album art won't show up, even when I choose to find album art

    I just installed iTunes 64 bit on my PC with Windows 7. I transfered my movies from my iPod Classic but no album art on any of them. I even try to find album art but nothing. I've downlaoded a couple of music albums onto same PC that I downloaded previously on iPad and they have art but not the videos I just transferred from iPod. I also can't play any of them on PC. I keep getting the no Quicktime message even though I downloaded QT. Any ideas?

    I'm having the same problem, except I dont have itunes match enabled.
    I synced my ipad and unchecked all my albums to remove them. Then I re-synced with the albums selected. They went back on WITH the artwork under 'artists' but then for some reason the next time I sync, some of the artwork under 'artists' is gone leaving only a music note for the cover.
    It also has nothing to do with the cloud backup as I have experienced this with both backing up to the cloud and to my mac.
    strange.......

  • Help!  Trouble transferring videos to iPod

    Hi! I really need some help here, I e-mailed the iTunes store and called tech support and neither one helped.
    I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 laptop computer with Windows XP and a Fifth Generation 30 GB video iPod. I purchased a season of television shows from the iTunes music store and I can't transfer them on top my iPod. They play on my computer just fine. I also downloaded a podcast with some video episodes which transferred to my iPod just fine. Some of the earlier episodes had to be converted for the iPod but then worked afterwards.
    Also, whenever I click into the Video tab of the ipod settings, the button is clicked that says do not transfer video and it does not let me click anywhere else.
    Any suggestions?!?!

    Hey there!
    Go back to File > Preferenes > iPod > Video
    If the "Do Not Transfer Video" option has a checkmark next to it, you should be able to click on the checkmark to remove it.
    Let me know what happens...
