Trying to add video file but does nothing

I am trying to add an mpeg that 85MB but iTunes acts as if I had done nothing.
Can anyone help?

Itunes ignores any files it does not support. This is very frustrating for the user, because we are used to seeing error messages or popups. In the long run, ignoring attempts to add a file saves time. There is nothing to do, no workaround, no trick. If iTunes ignores the attempt to add the file, then it absolutely does not support that particular file.

Unable to add video files to Library

Hello, good evening.
(I don't even know how to start...)
I'm having some problems while trying to add video files to iTunes' library. No matter if I try to drag it in, or use the File > Add file to Library option, it just doesn't show up on the Video category (or any other category either). However, it adds music files and downloads podcasts perfectly. Also, everything in the library syncs to the iPod without problems, including the videos that were already there prior to the iTunes 6 to 7 update.
The video is already a .mp4, converted with the Videora iPod Converter. I'm using iTunes 7.0.1 on Windows XP. If other detail is needed to answer my question, just ask.
I guess this is it...

Wierd. When you say it doesn't show up in the Video category, you mean "movies" category, right? Because there is no "video" category.
I don't think iTunes would mistake it for a music file, and it probably wouldn't show up in TV shows (and I'm sure you already tried that), but did you check under Podcasts?
It doesn't give you an error message when you go to import? Can you play the file within windows?

Wait until Adobe updates the Flash Player.

Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"

Everyting was perfect earlier. Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"
Everything is fine.
-They are the right format
-Quicktime is updated
-I have tried simply dragging them into the 'movie' library
-I have tried going to file<add file to library
Nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and found a way around it?
Any and all help appreciated.

In addition to Mike's suggestions, you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

What do I do now that Photoshop CC has encountered an error while trying to upgrade. Suggesting retry does nothing. The numbers (49) appear, but I don't know what that signifies. Help?

It is recommended that I ask for help, which put me here. What I really need is some customer service — not a chat room!

If Windows :
Quit Creative Cloud desktop application .
Launch Photoshop cc 2014 application from C: > Program Files > Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 .
Once launched , click on Help menu in Photoshop cc 2014 and select Updates option .
It should update.
If Mac:
Quit Creative Cloud desktop application .
Launch Photoshop cc 2014 application from Applications folder:
Once launched , click on Help menu in Photoshop cc 2014 and select Updates option .
Let me know if you face any error .
Error 49 occurs while updating the application , when Creative Cloud app does not have reference / Access to installed CC app, so that it can apply updates for the same .
You can try to update from CC app like Photoshop itself and check.

Since upgrade to os5 video files from emails can no longer be viewed, they are downloaded as before, but I am no longer asked which program to open file with. I used Azule without problems before os5' now os5 tries to open video file and stalls. Any fix

Os5 must have changed playback functionality of video files, it tries to play .wmv files, but crashes...it shows "loading", but nothing happens. Before update it would prompt me to choose an app to show the file, Azule worked great, but now it doesn't offer to chose an app.
How do I fix this?

Indeed you were right. I though that in single mode all services were not started, but apparently I was mistaken.
However, as I feared, there seemingly is no useful info in it.

I don't know what you are saying. How do I get my money refunded.

Sound but no Video when trying to play video files - HELP!

I am trying to play video files via Elements Organizer. In this case it is .MOV files. The new screen pops up but all I get is the sound and no video. I have downloaded the newest quicktime player but it did not help. Any ideas?

Hi,
What happens when you play the same file outside Organizer?

I have a new hp tower running windows 8.1 and have been trying to install the adobe reader. The installer downloads (1meg) and I choose to run it but it just sits with an empty screen. I've checked task manager and it takes up memory but does nothing.

I've checked task manager and it takes up memory but does nothing. After letting it run for 3-4 minutes I kill the task. What can I do to get the reader installed on this machine? I've tried using chrome, firefox and explorer and get the same results with each.

Try the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

I am not able to add video files to my itunes after installing itunes 10.7

I am not able to add video files to my itunes after installing itunes 10.7.0.21

I Have been using, Ipad for only around a month or so (Ipad 2), and it was only yesterday that i tried to use the Itunes. I first downloaded the latest itunes (10.7.0.21), and took backup of all my Ipad data.
After this, I wanted to add some video to my ipad, as it was essential to add the same to My itunes first, I roceeded to do just that. I went through this command {File - Add File to Library}, and then went on to select the Video file. There's just a flicker, and then nothing happens at all - the itune screen remains, and there is no error message too. Whereas, I can easily add Audio Files.
After this, I even downaload the latest Quick time (7.7.2), as I had read somewhere that the same is necessary. When I tried to open the Video file in Quick time, it did not open. After that I downloaded the codec DivX and DivX player. Though the Video plays in DivX, it refuses to open in Itune and does not play properly in Quicktime (slider moves, but sound and video is not there).
Frankly, I am utterly confused.

I am unable to add video files to my itunes library

I have been trying to add videos to my itunes library for a few hours now, i have the correct format MPEG-4's as stated on here as the correct format, but when i go to add them nothing comes up and im wondering why ?

HI.Andrew. Thanks for the reply. I think there has been misunderstanding and I am sorry about it. I am not streaming from my computer using Twonky. I have videos on my networked EZ drive in a media shared folder called movies. I also have photos in other folders as well which have no problem streaming. A majority of these videos (nearly 99%) are in the latest .m2TS or MPEG-4 format (from my video camera) and about 8 of them are in the MPEG-1 format. I used to be able to use my networked SOny Blu-Ray player to stream these videos (any format) to my TV and watch them, till this february when i updated my firmware. It does not need my laptop to be on for that (hence not media integrationissues). After my firmware update, the only video that plays are the eight MPEG-1 format videos. Very strange. I have no problem streaming photos or music from the EZ drive. I think I might have confused you with the Twonky thing, because on the EZ drive's manager window on the browser, after selecting "Media server" settings, I used to see a twonky server against my laptop PC in the table of connected devices (for media integration), which I now understand was because of media integration of the laptop. So please ignore that. I now get the message "no playable file found" when I try to stream videos from the EZ drive through my Blu-Ray player. I do see the Lenovo-EMC2 icon on my Blu-ray players video channels, clicking on it does show me folders, but it cannot find any playable file, while earlier it used to play those same files. I dont understand what happened. I am hoping you can throw some light on this issue.

Trying to add video to my site, need help

So, I am trying to add video content to my website. I've converted small video clip to test to the .flv format and have a .swf flash video player. I'm trying to embed it into my site but its giving me trouble. Here is a copy of the code I am using
<embed src="http://www.myfileserver.com/folder/flvplayer.swf" width="320" height="240"
bgcolor="#FFFFFF" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
flashvars="file=http://www.myfileserver.com/folder/video.flv&autostart=true" />
here is my question. I am confused to where my server is. I don't have my site content on an online server so does that mean, my computer is acting as my server?
On the embed src= "spot" do I just point to the place where I saved the .swf file on my computer? Same question goes for "file spot"at the bottom, the last line of code?
When I try and follow the directions and point to the files on my computer the video does not play. Hover over the 2nd video explanation to see my problem on my site to see the problem

When you started in Dreamweaver, you should have created a testing server. This testing server has the root folder defined on your computer:
You would put the flash movie into your media folder (or whatever folder you would designate for media such as this).
In Dreamweaver, on your insert panel, you should see a "insert media" button. Click the down arrow beside the button and choose the media you wish ot insert:
Choose FLV and it will give you the option to put in the URL (local testing server folder), a control button skin, and the size.

i recently got new mac air and transferred my old version garageband projects now when I open them in 10.0.2 I can add new tracks but then nothing can record, shows its receiving sound from software inst. but no sound. I checked audio preferences and they are set as they should be. I tried it in all the other older projects and same issue anyone have any experience like this very frustrating. Can one download old version still ? or can you run both versions on OS10.9.5 ?

Ok, either my question was too long or nobody seems to have an answer. Sad, either way
Here's something I found out in the meantime, maybe this is interesting for somebody or maybe - problem's not totally solved - enough info for any of you to give me further advice.
When I start Logic Core Audio driver de-activated, I can open old songs. Then I save them in a new folder with all audio files and a new name. And I remove all EXS24 instruments as well as the Space Designer. I quit Logic, re-open with Core Audio activated and I can open the song.
Problem no.1: EXS24 instruments don't find the appropriate samples, but EXSMananger Pro did help me with this. Same problem with Space Designer, which doesn't find the impulse responses, connected to a certain preset.
Two questions, every idea would be great!
- Is there any way to teach Space Designer Presets where to look for impulse respones. I can load IR samples directly and create a new preset, but I can't use my old ones.
- Is it possible to install Logic from scratch over an existing version? Or how should I de-install everything connected with Logic and then install a fresh version from CD?
Thank you again,
Joern

How to add video files to library

I know it's a stupid question, but I've been trying to add videos (from my hard drive) to i-tunes so that they can be transferred to my (new) i-pod, and when I go to add files it lets me add music but not videos. Any hint?
Thanks!

This is most probably a corrupted file or the file was not properly converted to ipod video format. The same thing also happened to me before.
