Trouble putting music videos into iTunes [please help]

I've already converted 9 music videos. And I've been successful in getting 5 of them on my iPod and they play fine. They all are in the correct MPEG4 format, and I've tried everything I can think of to get the remaining 4 on my iTunes.. I've dragged the files from the folder which they are in to my open iTunes, doesn't work.. I've gone through File and Import File as well as Import Folder, and nothing seems to work to get the remaining 4 videos on there. Any ideas as to what I should do?

I don't know about your specific issue, but I was able to figure out 'kinda' what's wrong. After looking extensively in other forums and posts I was able to figure out that if you can't open the file in QuickTime, the file is damaged. So I just redownloaded the file and it's working now, which is weird, but oh well.

Putting music back into Itunes library after reformat? Help Macmuse!!!

Reformated my hard drive and now I need to get my music back into mt iTunes library from my iPod. Tried using Macmuses idea from a previous thread but I get stuck when copying the music file from my iPod onto my hard drive. It'll start copying(and by the way, its taking a very, very long time to copy-is that normal?) then it stops saying there's a problem with my I/O device. Only a few files get copied before stopping. I'm using the USB cable that came with the iPod. And the files on my iPod are all still there and playable on my iPod. So I'm not sure what the problem is. Can anyone help?

Oh, it took over 8 hours to get songs from my 20G iPod using that method. Incredibly slow.
You might look at some of the free 3rd-party applications mentioned in Buegie's post. But I don't know if they are any faster.

What's that exact error message about I/O device?
Anyway try one of the utilities in that post, maybe that error message will go away.

Purchased music videos completely white PLEASE HELP!

I purchased quite a few music videos from the iTunes Store and since i upgraded about 6 months ago (this is the first chance I've had to look into it!) I've had so many problems with iTunes.
Every time I try to watch a purchase music video- all I can see is a white screen with a yellowish outline of objects in the video. The sound is kinda alright, a bit crackly, but still unacceptable considering the videos are $3.69 each!
Can someone please help me out? Or just tell how I can re-download these videos for free?
THANK YOU!
peace

Hi, Jen the Hen.
Have a look at this Apple Support page , in particulat the section A purchased video looks or sounds bad.

Using Photo and Video on iTunes: Please Help!

Hi, just bought the iPod video. Managed to transfer pictures to it, but cannot see them on iTunes. I can on the iPod, but cannot on computer through iTunes. Is this possible to do? If not, how do you delete pictures you do not want to include for example?
About videos: am I correct thinking I can add my own only if I upgrade to Quick Time Pro? Apparently is a really bad software and doesn't really work.
Please help me if you can I have tried the help functions and read for ages, but cannot find answers. Thank you

There are two places to change automatic sync. The first one is in iTunes, once you have opened the program, go to Edit>preferences>Syncing tab, and check the box that says, "Disable automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods". The second place is after you have connected the iPhone, in the middle of the Summary page, there are three checkboxes, and if memory serves, the first one is Automatic syncing.
In reading your post, maybe when you did the sync, you lost some information? Your contact information should have been saved to your contact manager, depending on which OS you use as to what it would be. Music, etc. would be in your iTunes library. Am I reading you correctly?
Hope this helps you and/or answers your question.
You have to change both to disable automatic syncing.

Music video into itunes

okay I have a music video that I didn't get from itunes because itunes doesn't have it but I am unable to get the video into my playlist the only place it is willing to go is in the movies playlist. I am trying to get it into the music videos smart playlist but I dont know how. Anyone have any thoughts?

Select the video and open the Get Info window (right click -> Get info or File -> Get info). Select the "Options" tab. Use the drop down "Media Kind" selection to change it from movie to music video.

Having trouble with DVD Video files. Please Help! :)

Hi I recently got a film DVD I wanted to take a clip off. However although I can watch the section I want in Windows Media Player, when I import the film into Premiere - some of it is missing! there are 4 files '4-1',4-2','4-3',4-4' which make up the movie. I can load them all in but 4-3 is missing the last 15-20 minutes, even though I know its there - cos this file is the same size as the previous one which is full length. Does anyone know why this would be? The DVD is unencrypted.
Please help - its quite annoying that the small section of film I want is the bit that won't appear! Thank you very much
Rich

Based on this one line:
The DVD is unencrypted.
I was assuming that it was not protected. However, as you point out, some aspects might be, and the OP might not be completely aware of this.
If there is protection, I strongly urge anyone to respect that, regardless of their intended use of the material. Copy protection is there for a very good reason. Regardless of what one might be able to do, they should be 100% ethical, and honor any/all copy protection. This is true for material from a videographer, or from a commercial studio. Should you need to use the material in such a DVD-Video, you should contact the author to get first permission, and then the original source material, that has not undergone the MPEG-2 compression to DVD-Video.
Again, I assume that the OP knows that this is NOT an issue, and will not figure into the problem. In that case, all above does NOT apply in this case, but some other reader might make note of it.
Good luck,
Hunt

How to put music videos on itunes stored on libary

how can i put musi videos onto itnes stored ib n libary

Did you already go through these FAQ's? Videos have to be added to the iTunes library first:
Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing video with iTunes and iPod
Why can't I transfer videos to my iPod?
If you have the media on your iPod and want to transfer them to iTunes on your computer, connect to iTunes on the computer, right click on your iPod in the device list and choose "transfer purchases"

I get a message: "Itunes could not back up the Ipod, because a session could not be started with the Ipod." What can I do? I cant put any videos into it. HELP!

I get a message when downloading video to the Ip[od: "I tunes could not back up the Ipod, because a session could not be started with the Ipod." What does this mean? What can I do? I cant put in any video. HELP!

I get these issues too, Even with a restore?
I work around it, (and would appreciate feedback on if this works for everyone) by :
Right clicking device in iTunes and selecting "backup", I then get the error; I quickly "ok" the error, then select "backup" again, then I often get the error a second time, but on the third attempt (in very quick succession) of selecting backup, the task initiates, and completes successfully!
Exactly the same for a restore!
Did this work for you?

I have an iPad 2 and I am tring to install quickbooks . It is saying I have to upgrade to ios 7.0 when I hit upgrade the message that it can't connect to iTunes comes up please help

Upgrade by connecting via cable to iTunes on your computer. It is best not to use wifi for this update.
If you haven't updated your iTunes on computer, do that first.
