TS1409 How do I mass convert all my videos in iTunes From FLV to MP4?!!

My problem is a simple one that YOU will, sooner or later, face---else you already faced it. It is the DREADED mixed media from You Tube. HOW DO I MASS CONVERT MY ITUNES FLV VIDEOS TO MP4 VIDEOS. If MP4 will play Video & Audio---why do I need FLV files?
1. I have an old APLINE IDA-X001 Digital Automobile Receiver that I have ported my iPOD Classic to via their Alpine Proprietary High Speed USB2 Cable.
2. I have 800+ You Tube music videos from the 80s (what can I say, WE ARE ALL ENTOMBED IN THE MUSIC OF OUR YOUTH and I am a couple of months older than Steve Jobs---Double Nickel or should I say YEAR ZERO of our lord Rock & Roll!!!). When driving, I just want to hear the Audio Files from my iPOD.
3. 90% of said You Tube videos are in Flash Video (FLV), 10% are MP4.
4. You can only play FLV on outputs that have videos, MP4 videos can play in video mode else audio only mode---THEREFORE I NEED TO CONVERT all my FLVs to MP4s on my iPOD Classic (160GB).
5. Yes, there are a handful of FREE Video Converter programs out there and the one I have AV8 will convert FLV to MP4 one file at a time...drip,drip,drip!!!
6. I have 800+ Music Videos---I will have died from old age before my iPod is filled.
7. My DESIRED END STATE is to flip a software switch and have all my iPOD FLV videos magically convert to MP4
8. You Tube Download Modality: I find a song I like and Download it to RealPlayer. Once downloaded, I PAINFULLY convert it to Ipod (can't do more than 9 songs at a time). Once in iTunes, I sync it to my iPOD classic and bam---my videos are in my my iPOD.
9. Currently, the only songs that play on my iPOD are those I've purchased from iTunes.
10. Whudda I Do? The Apple Tech guys haven't a clue. Also. If I can only do it manually (I've got movies mixed in as well), how do I set up an MP4 folder and then only transfer that folder on to my iPOD?!!!

The sync process for contact information, calendar events and bookmarks is bidirectional.

The sync process for iTunes content and photos transferred from your computer to the iPhone is in one direction only and can be synced with iTunes on one computer only.
iTunes includes an option to transfer content purchased from the iTunes Store only from an iPod or iPhone - not for content acquired elsewhere that was transferred from iTunes to your iPhone.
You need to transfer your iTunes library from your Windows PC to your Mac.

Backup do not contaiuns music or apps, you will either need to resync them from your itunes computer, or you can go to purchase history in itunes or app store app and go to purchase history and redownload them.

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.

everything should be on your computer.
If you do as you should and make sure that everything is on your computer, then you should lose nothing.

How can I copy songs with metadata (added in iTunes) from my PC to my new iMac?

I have iTunes 12.0.1 on my Windows PC. I'm about to get a new iMac (hooray!) and I'm beginning the process of transferring everything on my PC to my Mac. I've got all the documents, pictures, files, etc. covered, but now I have to make a copy of all of my music.
Most of the music in my iTunes library is not bought through the iTunes Store (I download most of my songs from the Internet). Then, after saving the downloaded song to my computer, I go into iTunes on my computer and add the song. I also add metadata like artist, album, genre, album artwork, etc. to the song in iTunes. What concerns me is that only the songs in iTunes have this metadata: the original downloaded files I saved onto my computer don't have any metadata.
I really don't want to have to go through the long and tedious process of adding artist/album names, genre, etc. to every single song in my iTunes library on my new iMac. How can I copy songs with metadata (added in iTunes) from my PC to my new iMac?
Thank you so much for any help!

Hello! I'd like to learn more about Home Sharing. To do this, would both my PC (which I hope to get rid of) and my new iMac need to be plugged in?
Also, after Home Sharing with the old PC is initiated, I understand that all my songs would appear on my iMac. Is there a way to copy all of these (with album artwork, name, artist, etc.) directly to the iMac's hard drive and then disconnect home sharing so I can get rid of my PC?
Thank you!

I have many thousands of songs in my itunes library. Unfortunately, most are now pointing toward .jpgs instead of the m4a files in my itunes library. Is there anyway to fix this without reimporting all the files into itunes from scratch??

OMG...I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Since my computer is a goner, I don't have any other way to access all that music.

So I bought a video on iTunes, how do I make it compatible with iMovie so I can edit it and make my own video? If I can't do this, then how do those people on YouTube make videos with clips from TV shows and Movies?

How do I batch delete all my protected music files from iTunes.

Hi, in a moment of stupidity, while I was working on a backup folder of my friends files (from his broken computer - copied them to my PC so he could get them back onto his new PC) I managed to copy all of his songs from his iTunes folder into my iTunes library. I don't know how I managed to do this, maybe it was the fact that I was really tired at the time.
I own all my music - none of my music is copy protected (it is either downloaded from legal sites where the bands themselves [usually unknown or alternative artists] release their music, or I ripped the music from CD's I bought) and all of his music is copy protected.
Now thing is, I have upgraded my PC before realising I did this, so now I don't have the original iTunes library (formatted PC and reinstalled XP from scratch) - is there any tools out there that will find and delete all your copy protected files from iTunes?
I could go through song by song and when it comes up with the "Authorise computer - This computer is not authorised to play "******" Would you like to authorise it" and delete those songs, but as this is a very slow and time consuming process and considering I have 8,551 songs, I would prefer a faster way.
I would go and re-rip all the songs, as I have the original discs, but this would take very long, and put quite a bit of strain on my CD drive, and this would not account for all the songs I have spent years finding on the internet/demo songs from friends bands.
Any help is appreciated, as I would love to be able to remove all of his songs so they don't keep popping up in my iTunes library
Thanks in advance.
Dale.

I have never tried this and am not at a computer with iTunes, but can you delete from a Smart Playlist? If so, you could make a smart playlist that shows songs that are of kind Protected ACC. Then select all and delete from that playlist. But I am not so sure if you can delete from a smart playlist.

How can't I move all my contacted and photos from my old iCloud account to my new account

How can't I move all my contacted and my photos from my old iCloud account to my new iCloud account . And how do I know I got photos saved on my iCloud account

If you sign into your old account using your iPhone and turn on contacts (Settings > iCloud) then once all of your contacts are on your iPhone turn contacts back off and select keep on my iPhone. Then delete account on the old account and sign in with your new iCloud account and turn on contacts and select merge. That will get your contacts over.
If you have photos stored in iCloud it will be in My Photo Stream. This section only keeps the last 30 days of auto uploads from any of your devices or computers that are using this feature. You can access these photos by signing into the old iCloud account in Settings > iCloud and enable Photos > My Photo Stream. If you have any photos in there, they will load into your Photos App. In the Photos App, tap Albums in the bottom right, then tap My Photo Stream. There is no way to upload them to your new iCloud account once you sign into it short of creating a Shared Photo Stream and inviting yourself to it.
In the end you should really try to keep one Apple ID for everything when possible as there is no way to merge Apple IDs and you can end up in a tangled mess.

How can I totally strip ALL google products and services from my 3GS?

Hi,
I am extremely unhappy with the direction google is taking with their new privacy policy.
I am terminating use of ALL google services and products in my personal life and paying to use other services that respect my privacy.
I want to know how I can completely strip ALL things google from my 3GS..
I bought it used second hand so I am using it on T-mobile because AT&T is the WORST company on earth. But let's not worry about that, I will never, ever use AT&T, I would do without before I wouldgo back to them.
All I can find are lots and lots of webpages and apps to ADD google nonsense to your iPhone but I can find none at all about how to remove them.
I want the google search removed from Safari, I want it replaced with anything else but google.
I want google maps removed, I want google, all google removed from my phone.
Surely there must be a way to do it??
Thanks..

I understand what you are saying, but there is no way to avoid being tracked if you use the Internet. None of those tools block you completely, and if you use ebay or amazon then ebay and amazon know everything about you, and take advantage of it. Blocking Google won't stop it. The one you really need to fear is acxiom*, who collect data from everyone (including amazon and ebay and your bank[s]) and aggregate it. And sell it to the highest bidder, such as the CIA. Adblockers block the ads you see, but don't prevent the advertisers from knowing who you are. The only way to avoid being tracked is to buy only in real stores, never on the Internet, and pay only cash, never credit cards or debit cards. And use only a basic cell phone with pay-as-you-go SIM cards bought with cash. For some idea of what I am saying read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The technology discussions in it are dead on.
*I bet you've never heard of them, which is the way they prefer it to be.
Well I don't care about the government too much. They monitor everything anyway and there's nothing anyone can do about that. Oh well.
But the greedsters, the banksters, the profiteers, the one percenters, those are the ones I despise deeply.
They have no right to know what size clothes I wear or how much I weigh or what I eat or what TV shows I like to watch or what color my bathroom tile is or what color the pillow cases on my bed are or even what my birthday is. It's none of their friggin business.
On a PC, and I use Linux, I can install add ons to my browser to deny those greedy, selffish corporations access to a great deal of my private life. I use Ghostery, for one, to block a lot of those nasty tracking methods and it tells me that it's currently blocking 778 "web bugs". I update it every few days and it usually grows by at least 10 new bugs every time. I use adblock plus and I've made sure to ad filters to block everything to do with google and facebook, in addition to a vast quantity of other evil things it blocks.
It only gets worse, it never, ever gets better. What is allowed in the US is illegal in many European countries because they take privacy seriously. Over here, it's a joke. It doesn't exist. Profit before people is the American way of life. It makes me sick. It's just pure, distilled, unadulterated greed.
I would actually like to use a VPN service (I'm looking into it) to further deny the greedsters additional prying into my life.
I do know that Amazon and ebay track you but in many cases I have no other options, I live in a small town and all we have is one Walmart store. Everything else went out of business because Walmart drove everyone else under and now they are the only game in town. So when I can't find something there, I have no choice other than to buy online. So that can't be avoided I'm afraid. But really, big whoop, so they know I buy books on Buddhism from Amazon and Tibetan prayer flags on ebay. I'm sure that's subversive stuff that they can use against me someday.. *smirk*.... But still, that's MY business and no one else other than the vendors I buy from.
The vermin that data mine and sell what they can find out about me through their spying on my activities, those people (corporations) are the scum of the universe and they don’t deserve to share the same oxygen source as I do. To them, I wish upon them ill will and great misfortune.
My distaste and disdain for technology grows ever more bitter as time goes on. Perhaps some day in the not to distant future I will turn my back on this modern world and move to Nepal to become a Buddhist nun. A bowl of rice and a saffron robe will be the only things I will need then.
