Video ITunes

Please help me with my problem. I can not import video files to my Itunes Library. I tried both by drag and dropping directly from the folder and with the option add files to the library. In both cases nothing happens at all.
Can anybody explain me what I am doing wrong
Thank you

Most likly the video is in a format not supported by itunes, like .avi or.wmv More about what video formats are supported by itunes/ipod and other video questions can be found here http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302758

    I wanted to do the opposite. Put a music video in movies. The original purchase had the option greyed out but I had gone to the advanced menu to create an iphone/ipod version. Then both were showing on my iphone. I was able to change the new version to movie  and now I have it both places in itunes but only one version on my iphone. I had to do this because my iphone kept re-downloading it as though it were a new item. We'll see if this fixes that issue but I thought it was strange that I could not change the original copy. The altered copy has a lower bit rate but it looks and sounds the same to me.

  • Sync iPod Video- iTunes

    When I connect my iPod Video, iTunes, after trying to sync, says that the iPod can't be found, however the computer still detects it. What's wrong?

    When itunes states that it cannot detect the ipod, is the Do Not Disconnect still on the ipod screen?
    If not, how long does it take itunes to throw this error once the ipod is connected.

  • Can a Time Capsule hard drive store external memory besides backups (eg. HD Video, iTunes library, ETC.)

    I'm going to get a MacBook Pro soon, and I'm going to get the 256GB Flash Storage, but I will need extra memory, mostly because I edit a lot of HD video. I may store my iTunes library, but I'm not sure on that one (I currently have almost no songs, and my 254 GB hard drive is almost full on my PC! I do not plan to transfer all of my files, though, but in then long run, I will need more memory.)
    I know that time capsule has 1 TB of memory, and it is marked as an external hard drive, and I know it's meant to store backups of your computer, but can it store things other than backups, and serve as a full external hard drive (Like a giant USB flashdrive), and store thing like HD Video, music, and any other sort of file?
    I just need an external hard drive, and time capsule seems like a good option, but I need to know if it's for backups exclusively, or if you can store anything on it (Again, like a giant USB flashdrive!).
    Thank you for reading, and I look forward to seeing the replys!

    Ok..  the TC can be used as network hard drive.. you can put all your files on it.
    BUT.. please think carefully about this.
    The Time Capsule is designed for Time Machine as backup target.. principally for wireless laptops.
    If you use large files remotely.. and by wireless .. they will take forever to load.. the TC is slow but wireless is even slower.
    It is not a giant USB.. but you can buy a cheap USB drive now that we have USB3 on MBP latest version?? it is fast and cheap and a local drive.
    Time Capsule has no raid.. no backup.. no protection against failure of the disk or the device or accidental deletion or corruption. That makes it unsuitable as a file store.
    Apple do not sell a file store..
    You can buy a true NAS.. Synology or QNAP.. Netgear also make some good ones.
    Or you can get a Mac Mini and run it as file store.. with or without a server version OS.
    Anything that offers you proper backup and fast file transfer.. which the TC fails to do.

  • Streaming Video, iTunes rentals are too dark.  Help!

    Using a 2013 Macbook Air, pretty much fully loaded.
    I'm noticing that movies purchased on iTunes, as well as Handbrake rips of my own DVDS, and streaming through both Amazon Prime and Netflix, using MS Silverlight and Quicktime... all videos are too dark.  Or rather, the shadows, and blacks are all too dark.  I have worked with display calibration and am convinced that calibration is not the real issue here.  While using my photo editing software, Lightroom 3, there are no such problems.  It is only the video playback.
    Is anyone else having the same issue?  I had a 2012 MB Air which didn't seem to have this problem as badly as this one. 
    Looking for solutions. 
    Thanks!

    I have gone through calibration.  Please note that other applications, such as Lightroom appear as they should.  I also have a spyder, and though I haven't calibrated this monitor, the fact that non-video applications are appearing as they should tells me that the problem is probably with the application running the video playback, or something do to with the video processor.  Also note that the problem occurs with both Amazon streaming, Netflix, and videos ripped with Handbrake, and that it occurs with MS Silverlight, Quicktime and with VLC player. 
    I read some discussion streams from 2012 with the same problem, and calibration was not the issue.  I have tried every built in display profile, manually gone through calibration in "expert" mode, etc... I just don't think this is the real issue.  Nor does it appear to be a hardware issue.  At least not the monitor.  Other applications are working just fine.

  • Adding MPEG-1 video: iTunes plays it but iPod loses audio

    I've read the support article here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302588
    The background:
    My camcorder (a JCV Everio) exports video as MPEG-2 (".mod") files. About the only thing that seems able to open these is the editing software that came with it - Cyberlink PowerDirector. This will export videos as MPEG-1, MPEG-2, or AVI (Windows or DV).
    The only one of these that iTunes seems able to import is MPEG-1. It plays both video and audio together without a problem. However, it won't sync the file with my iPod. When I use iTunes "Convert selection for iPod" function, the resulting (m4v?) file lacks audio.
    Is there a simple way to convert my source video files into a format that will play without problems on: Windows, Mac, iTunes, iPod, anything else I might like to throw at it, and not involve me paying "just $29.99" for some software that claims to convert water into wine and looks like it was built by a Serbian teenager?
    Thanks for any advice.

  • NEW IPOD VIDEO/ ITUNES ISSUES. HELP!!

    OK here is my problem. I recently recieved my IPOD Video. Attempted to sync with PC... everything ok. Then tried to sync w/ ITunes... Big problem apparently I need to format all my songs to a new AAC?? Not even sure what that means. Any suggestions? I called Apple and they said I would have to do this everytime I copied a cd to my ipod. Is that correct? If so, the IPod Video will be sent back. There has to be an easier way. Please help!

    I need to format all my songs to a new AAC
    That's not necessarily true. The don't NEED to be in AAC. They just need to be in a format that the iPod can play.
    There are several formats you can use.
    They are:
    AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Music Store), MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3 and 4), Apple Lossless, WAV, AIFF
    What format are your tracks in now?

  • Videos & iTunes Lags When I Move MacBook Pro

    So I bought my otherwise marvelous MacBook Pro about a month ago but I've noticed than when I move the laptop the video, specifically in the VLC player, lags. It's not with every tiny movement but I don't exactly have to shake it violently. iTunes also does the same thing when I'm playing a song, although possibly a bit less sensitive. That can't be right, can it? I mean I just got it so I haven't changed the RAM or anything else in the inside as I've ready some other posts. What can I do?

    I turned off the Sudden Motion Sensor and you're right! It doesn't lag at all. Sometimes it lags for a second randomly but very seldom and I guess thats still something from the firmware. Although it's weird because most things I read about the firmware is people having problems when they install a third party hard drive.

  • Lost 5.1 sound after watching a video iTunes 8

    After watch a video on iTunes 8, I lost 5.1 sound when hearing back a song. The strange thing is that when I open Quicktime all the settings are OK....reopen iTunes and the songs are perfectly fine 'til I watch a video....then the problem begins again. Any ideas??

    Same issue! In my case, I have no desire to actually _watch_ a video over RDP - but when I am using Lightroom over RDP, have images up in the 'filmstrip view', and hit the right-arrow key for next and it happens to be a video, Lightroom crashes - don't even have to hit play or anything.
    Seems like a bug to me; if video didn't play properly but lightroom didn't crash, that'd be acceptable - but a crash is never good.

  • Manually manage songs and video (ITUNES)

    How can I manually manage songs into my iPhone 4 whitout sync. ? If I check the case, it ask me to sync. overything with the "new" list when I "Apply" ... I don't want to sync. because there's no song on my cumputer , only on my iphone so I don't want to loose anything but I want to put manually songs and videos on it ! I'm using the last version of Itunes, iOS and Windows 7 !

    Connect your Device to Computer. Select your iPhone under "Devices" on the left Pane.
    On the right Pane, under "Summary" tab, make sure "Manually manage Music and videos" box is checked. Then click the APPLY button on the lower right Window.
    Now you can drag songs onto your iphone without using the Sync.

  • Watching video Itunes 7. Cant move from video to video easily

    Since I have only a nano I watch podcast video on my computer. But since I updated to ver 7 when I select a video to watch like Rocketboom and watch it if I stop the video in order to watch something else I am kind of locked into that video until I exit out of Itunes. It makes switching from a video to some music kind of frustrating.

    I will try your suggestion you do understand I am only using the videos in itunes for windows not on my ipod and yes I am using the most current version. I do like the look of the 7 version and that they organize your podcasts from the music which is a real bother when the library was all mixed up...I was thinking it was due to the fact that I only had about 1 GB left on this partition. I am facing a whole lot of partitioning I made my partitions too small when I added linux to this 80 GB drive.
