Video / Movie Transfer

Can somebody please point me in right direction as to what I am doing wrong with respect of trying to transfer video files into my Itunes Library. The instructions I have read say simply drag and drop, however, I am currently trying to do this with an MPEG-4 Movie file I have downloaded from the net and for some reason it will not show up in the library.
Thanks

iPods will not play .mp4 files. You need to use iTunes (Import) or QuickTime Pro to convert it to a .m4v for use in your iPod.

  • Transfer rented video/movies to my new iPhone 5?

    I purchased some videos/movies on my iPad 2, and here i wanna transfer them to my iPhone 5, i intended to copy them to iTunes library for sync but it didn't, is there any way help me?

    You cannot.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer."

  • How to transfer video/movie to ipod from iTunes?

    Hi,
    Recently, I have got my new iPod Touch 4G.  I succesfully transfered songs/apps from iTunes to my iPod Touch. But I don't know how to transfer video/movie to my iPod. I can't add a movie/video clip to iTunes ( File-> Add file to Library).
    Is there any video format conversion required?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You are right! I just converted my videos/movies into MP4 format using HandBrake and it works!
    Thanks

    Log and transfer only works with AVCHD media, which this camera doesn't shoot. You need to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the media.

  • Can not sync video (movies) from iPhoto to iPad

    iPad 64GB 3G
    MacPro
    iPhoto 8.1
    iTunes 9.1.1
    I have a small number of videos (movies) managed in iPhoto. They cam off my digital camera and they go into iPhoto. everything has always been happy.
    I select a small number of them and add them and some photos into a new album for my iPad. The photos work fine (shot and stored as jpeg and RAW) the videos do not transfer over. There is an error message about the .mov format not supported.
    So why does the Apple iTunes not know how to get the Apple iPhoto movies and put them on the Apple iPad so I can see them?
    I had to save a video from iPhoto out to file and open with Quicktime and then resave it and let iTunes sync it to GoodReader in order to see it on my iPAD. So why do I need a third party tool and a work around to get all of the Apple tools to work for my iPad when they seamlessly work for my iPod?

    Greetings,
    iPad, like iPods and iPhones and Apple TVs, reads certain types of movie files.
    The movies you are trying to sync are most likely, not a format that is compatible with iPad.
    iTunes includes a built in feature that will convert movie files to the proper format. Take a look at the iTunes help menu: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iTunesMac/9.1/en/31445.html
    Drag your desired movies out of iPhoto and drop them into iTunes. You can then follow the above help article to convert them to an iPad version.
    You can also read about the specific formats that iPad supports: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP580
    __Look under "TV and video"
    On an unrelated note, there are new versions of iPhoto and iTunes available. You can download them by going to the Apple Menu and Software Update.

  • HT4993 when switching from my htc evo to the iphone 4s they said all my photos and videos would transfer over time, but after 6 hours still nothing has transfered.  Anybody have this issue or know what I can do so I won't lose all my pictures and videos

    When switching from HTC evo to iphone 4s on sprint service the attendant said all my music, photos, and videos would transfer after some time.  Does anyone know if this is true, or has anyone had this issue happen to them?  It has been 8 hours since the switch and only my contacts transferred right away.

    Well i wouldn't see why your photo's, videos and music would trasnfer. As that is a android device, there is no way to have them transfer over the air to the iphone. 
    Contacts probably came from google. Your videos and such you would have to move them to PC then to the iphone. Same with your music.

  • Downloading Training Video/Movie onto iPad2

    I have downloaded training videos/movies onto my Macbook Pro and require to upload the same videos/movies onto my iPad2. Is it possible and how do I do it?

    If the videos/movies are in an iPad compatible format, add the videos/movies to your iTunes library and transfer the videos/movies to your iPad as with any other in your iTunes library.

  • How can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

    how can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?

    Yes, you can add your own videos to iTunes, then sync them to your nano, subject to supported max resolution limit and file type.  The specs for the 7th gen nano says (I don't know which nano model you have), Video Format Support
    "H.264 video: 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Baseline, Main, and High-Profile level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 Mbps, 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
    http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
    (earlier nanos have lower max resolution limits)
    So, "HD" video is too high resolution, so iTunes will not sync such videos to the iPod (although they play in iTunes).  If you are asking how to set up iTunes to sync videos in general (regardless of source), please post back.

  • Will videos/movies play continuously on the iPod or only one at a time?

    I have 80g iPod Classic and wish it could play videos continuously like it can play songs. Nothing in the pdf manual about it. Nothing in iTunes prefs about it. Nothing in iPod settings about it. I know if I make a playlist of videos in iTunes, iTunes can/will play the entire playlist before it stops. I dragged the playlist to the iPod, but there it plays one video and stops. Question: can it be done or can't it, and if so, HOW?

    IT CAN BE DONE! I went to the linked thread
    (http://www.podcentral.ph/forum/showthread.php?t=3801)
    and tried this, which works: in iTunes create a playlist of videos/movies; select all; choose Get Info from the File menu (yes to the alert); at the bottom of the window (titled "Multiple Item Information") toggle the "Skip When Shuffling" to "No". Then you can drag the playlist to your iPod's newly created playlist box. P.S.: Of 11 videos, 2 were rejected for not being able to be played "on this iPod", even though they already had played on it hours before, even though I had to convert many files so they could be "played on this iPod". "In any complex system blah blah will eventually blah blah.

  • How do I watch videos (.mov files) from my iphone 5 on my windows vista pc?

    Hi I've downloaded my videos from my iphone 5 to my PC which runs Windows Vista, but I cannot work out how to play the videos (.mov files)
    I've tried the latest Quicktime player (7.7.6) and also Quicktime 7.6 and the audio plays fine but the video is slow and jumpy. The video plays fine on my iphone.
    I've tried iTunes on my pc but I have the same problem.
    The problem is even worse with VLC media player in that the image is distorted and pixelated, but again the audio is fine.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

  • HT202020 Using a SDHC card adapter I can import directly on my iPad2 videos (.mov) taken with a Panasonic DMC-ZS3. The same video files (same file format) imported in Aperture 3.3 cannot be synchronized with iPad. Is Aperture causing the problem?

    Using a SDHC card adapter I can import directly on my iPad2 videos (.mov) taken with a Panasonic DMC-ZS3. The same video files (same file format) imported in Aperture 3.3 cannot be synchronized with iPad. Is Aperture causing the problem?

    Oh, baby! This bad boy flies!! Here's what to expect:
    I had 40,000 images in Aperture 3 and it was dog slow at everything. I installed 3.1 update today. It took 5 minutes to update the database and then behaved marginally better than before at ASIC library navigation. I was disappointed.
    Then I QUIT the app. It took a couple of hours to "update files for sharing" with a counter that went to 110,000 images. So it must have updated every thumbnail and variation of preview. Turned it back on , and BAM. Came up fully in seconds. Paused for 10 seconds ten everything was lickrty split. For the first time ever, I can use the Projects view with all 791 projects and scroll quickly. I even put it in photos modevand whipped thru all 49,000 images!
    Haven't done anybprocessing yet, but i'm liking it!!

  • Quicktime video (.mov file) will not load and play in Firefox 3.6.16

    I have a computer with Firefox 3.6.16 installed that will not play Quicktime videos (.mov files) in the browser. This is a desktop computer.
    Another computer (laptop) with exactly the same version of Firefox installed will load and play them perfectly in the Quicktime player.
    Both computers have Quicktime addin 7.6.9.0 installed and designated as the default application for Quicktime movies.
    Both computers play the videos correctly in IE 8.
    When attempting to play the video in Firefox, the player window opens and attempts to load the video, but soon seems to freeze leaving a black window open where the player should be.
    From what I have observed, this seems to be a problem related specifically to this computer, and since the video plays in IE I have ruled out the firewall blocking loading from the site.

    Hi, I've exactly the same problem, 'cept I've XP Pro. When I say exactly, I mean the format used is HDV 1080i60, along with everything else there.
    And I'm right there with you. Why Quicktime can't play a natively encoded HDV Quicktime file (using Final Cut Pro), is beyond me, but basically, I've used K-Lite Codec Pack, and Quicktime. Neither work, although Quicktime does ask for internet connectivity to download resources or something similar (I don't have Internet Access at home). I've used VLC on a friend's PC, and, while it works, there is a very strange, and irritating flicker where there's heavy movement
    Where can I get the resource needed, as another party needs to view the clip, and they already have it. So if they can update their codec library or similar, then that would be much better (as I wouldn't need to upload a FullHD Video again)
    thanks

  • How can I download videos/movies using idownload app?

    I bought the Idownload app for my iPad a few days back, but I can't download any video/movie. When I tap on a link, it gives me the following options: open or download. After choosing download video and specifying path and name for the file, it only downloads a file less than 200 kb. What should I do? I would also appreciate if someone can give me names of websites from which I can download full length American movies.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Thank you.
