Uploading movies/videos onto my iPod Touch

Hey guys,
I was wondering if when they say Videos this is different from movies. I wanted to download Office Space from the iTunes Store but from what I have tried I don't think I can load these onto my Touch. I figured any apple format video would work (.mp4) for example, but when tried to upload a free vid I got from the store it wouldn't work. Then I tired an .mp4 vid I had on my computer and that wouldn't work either.
Does the Touch support these formats? What kind of videos can I upload?
Also can I use a different browser on my Touch that would allow me to download Flash? Or is that pretty much out of the question?
Also I have the 2nd Gen. iPod Touch
Thanks in advance.

Those options aren't required for video purchased from the iTunes Store. They are useful for video acquired from other sources. The only thing I've ever had to use them for on video content from the iTunes Store are weirdly encoded video podcasts. I currently have four different video capable iPods (5th gen iPod, 3rd gen Nano and both 1st and 2nd gen Touch) and have never had to use those conversion options for purchased contents.
Using those options really isn't going to address whatever the underlying problem is and can take a really long time. Bottom line is that stuff should transfer. If it doesn't, finding the problem may safe a lot of time in the end.
Best of luck.

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube?

We are evaluating the use of iPod touch devices to record best practice videos on our manufacturing floor and to post to an internal Moodle web site. How can you upload a video from the iPod touch to a site other than YouTube? The Moodle upload interface is expecting a file selection dialog box like windows or OSX. I do not want to have to go through an intermediary step of messing with a pc.
Thanks!

It should be around 7 and a half gigs. In iTunes, across the bottom there should be a bar that show how much storage is being used and by what. (music, movies, apps, etc.) To make music take up less room, you can check the box to make it convert the music to 128kbps AAC. This lowers the quality, but with most earbuds and speakers, you can't even tell the difference.
The iPod touch has parental controls built in. You'll find them in Settings. I think they only work for enabling/disabling Safari, Mail, YouTube, and App Store. Here's an app that does more: http://www.mobicip.com/online_safety/ipod_touch

How do I get music videos, tv shows, and movies from my iTunes onto my iPod touch?

I just bought the 32 G iPod touch bc I read online that the 8G holds 2000 songs plus other stuff and the 32G holds 8000 songs plus more. I have 3000 songs on my iTunes and for some reason it said it won't hold more than 2600. Also I can't figure out to put the music videos, tv shows, and movies from my iTunes synced onto my iPod touch. Help?

The advertised number of songs an iPod can hold is based on set factors such as the encoding for each song and the length for each song.
Transferring movies is selected under the Movies tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.
Transferring TV Shows is selected under the TV Shows tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.
Include Music Videos is selected under the Music tab for your iPod sync preferences with iTunes.

I registered a digital copy of a movie on disneymoviesanywhere. I connected the account to my itunes account but I can't find the movie on my itunes account. I'm just trying to download the movie onto my ipod touch.

Hey cptniemo,
Thanks for the question. Connecting your iTunes Store and Disney Movies Anywhere accounts should sync all of your eligible Disney, Pixar, and Marvel movies between both services. After connecting your accounts, you can check your purchased history in the iTunes Store:
Download past purchases

Alternatively you can download the free Disney Movies Anywhere app from the App Store (iOS 7 required):

I cannot seem to trace where the purchase went but it money is gone from account and I have no song.
Please help!

Starting at the end:
- When the movie or tv show does transfer onto your iphone/ipod touch you will be able to see it in the expanded view of your device in the "DEVICES" section.
- If the files are not on your device, then:
-- confirm you have SD or HD-SD video. HD-only content will not play and probably will not even sync. iTunes seems to reliably have SD versions with their HD distributions so this should not be an issue
-- confirm you are synch-ing the content to the ipod device by browsing the DEVICE view's Movie or TV Show tabs to confirm the movie or episode is 'checked'
- If the files are on the iPod and you cannot find them, check your Settings: General for Restrictions. If you restrict, for example the movies to "G" rating. PG and higher movies will sync but you will not be able to find them on the iPod!

Not sure if this is a iCloud or Wi-fi issue. Why can't I put my new playlists onto my iPod Touch?

Hello!
A month or so ago, I bought a new MacBook Pro for myself, an iMac for the wife, a 2TB TimeCapsule iCloud and Music Match. The whole 9 yards. Since then, I have't been able to put new playlists onto my iPod Touch. When I plug it in and switch to the "Music" tab for the iPod, I get " iTunes Match is On. Brian's Newest iPod can access music in iCloud. Songs can be downloaded and played via Wi-Fi or a cellular network."
Well, no I can't. The reason I know this is because yesterday, I was given two brand new music CDs, which I uploaded onto the MacBook Pro. Made a new "AC/DC" playlist and everthing. And now I can't get this playlist or any new playlist onto my Pod. Looking for "AC/DC" under the "Artist" tab or "Back in Black" on my iPod does't work either.
This is Gawd-Awful annoying. I don't WANT to play everything from Wi-Fi or cellular network. (Don't need/want an iPhone-that shouldn't count again me, should it?) The whole point of buying a 32 GB iPod was because I am usually not on a network of any type during most of my day. How do I get the stinkin' music onto it?
Maybe I am missing the point of both iCloud and Music Match. I thought the second allowed me to download better versions of all the songs I have on my computers. (Was that payment a one-time thing or will I have to pony up each year, btw?) And iCloud meant that I could listen to any and all of my songs on anything with an Apple Logo on it via wi-fi. But is that the only way?
Okay, done ranting now.
Thanks.
Brian

Nope, though it did allow me to get some missing songs back onto my iPod. That's something. But neither "Back in Black" or "Dirty Deeds" show up anywhere on the Touch. Could this be because iTunes has no deal with AC/DC?
Quite frankly, at this point, I'd really rather not have the "ease of use" of iCloud attached to the iPod. It's not like I change my playlists that much. It would just be nice to get what I want onto my MP3 player. Not sure which one it was: iCloud, Music Match or the Air Port but the only real result of all the $ I plunked down is seeing all of my Wife's 231 Christmas songs popping up on my laptop. Really don't want them here. She SURE AS **** is sick of seeing all of my stuff on her computer.
Thanks again.

Need to get all the files, well music and video, from my ipod touch 5th gen to my itunes libary.

Need to get all the files, (well music and video), from my ipod touch 5th gen to my itunes libary. (So basically sync the other way to normal)
Laptop hard drive broke so had to buy a new one and obviously now need to sort out my itunes.
Did try downloading all my purchased stuff onto itunes but it has missed some things off, and there are some files I did not purchase from itunes so need a way of getting them back on there.
Sure this question has been asked a million times but can't find anything to help me on here so thought I'd ask.
-Did have a look at going onto the start menu and opening the hidden items thing but couldn't see any reference to ipod or device on it so wasn't sure how to do it that way.
-On itunes under my device when its connected, the section about manually restoring and backing up, would that help me? Because that says it will manually back up my ipod to my computer then could restore that back up, obviously I don't want to accidnetally get rid of everything on my ipod so didn't want to try that just in case without checking.
(And yes I have disabled auto sync to device when conncected!)
Can anyone help me please? Sorry if i've overcomplicated this!
Thanks:)
Chris

Backing up an iOS device will copy some data to a backup file within iTunes, but this excludes all media. You can also transfer iTunes Store purchases from the iDevice to iTunes but, without using a third-party tool, nothing else. As long as you do not sync the iPod with your new library, the media that's on it will remain ... for as long as it keeps functioning, is not lost, stolen, eaten by the dog, ...
You may also have an option to recover your previous library from your old laptop; as long as its hard drive isn't fried, a computer repair store or technician may be able to extract the drive, mount it in an external enclosure, and copy your data to another PC. Whatever you choose, there is no real alternative to having all your media on your computer, managed by iTunes, and regularly backed up to another device/location.

Video output from iPod Touch (2nd gen) via AV Component Cable (no audio)

Hi, I'm trying to output a video from my iPod Touch (2nd gen) to my TV via a AV Component Cable.
Unfortunately the audio doesn't work, I'm sure they are all connected into the right places.
The video works, but I get no audio. (And no subtitles when closed caption is on)
Here is a link to an image of the TV connections from ImageShack:
http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/7280/img0204y.jpg
At the top left of the image, are what I assume to be the red and white audio ports, highlighted in red.
I plugged in the red and white audio connectors into those ports.
And towards the bottom are three ports, green, blue and red, also highlighted in red.
I plugged in the green, blue and red connectors into those ports.
I changed the input of the TV to Input 2, I see the video for the movie I'm watching on the TV but no audio. I tried multiple movies.
I've also tried changing the video output from PAL to NTSC and back again, turning Widescreen on and off and turning Closed Captions on and off. I also tried plugging in the red and white audio connectors into the row of ports just below the green/blue/red row, to see if that made any difference, and it didn't.
I tapped the bottom left button of the iPod Touch when plugged in to the TV and playing video and it came up with an option that was selected called ~"Audio Source: English (Stereo)"
Any idea's? Thanks.

Resolved... ThankYou
