Video that appears in iTunes but not Windows Explorer crashing iTunes

I added some videos to my iTunes library today, and I tried to sync my iPod. When I connect it, I get the "Updating iPod, do not disconnect" message, but it doesn't say exactly what it's transferring. After a little while, I get the notification that iTunes is crashing and the option to send an error report.
I updated iTunes to 6.0.3 earlier today, and updated my iPod to see if that would fix anything. When it didn't, I checked to see if there was something wrong with any of the videos. I tried deleting the videos, until iTunes crashed again. Whenever I try to delete, or play, or right-click this video, it crashes. I thought that maybe there was a problem with a video, so deleting it through Windows Explorer might have some effect, so I went to where it would be stored, and . . . it wasn't there.
I know that a file being listed in the library but not actually stored in Windows would normally just result in the exclamation-point-in-a-circle icon, but could this be what's causing iTunes to crash? Is there a way to delete something from the iTunes library without actually going through iTunes?

Okay, I managed to fix it after uninstalling iTunes and installing an old version . . . but of course, after I had everything up and working again, I ended up causing it to happen again. The upside of that is that I now know how it happened and an easier way to fix it.
The corruption of the file occured when trying to type in an artist on a file whose tag I had modified with iPod TVShow . . . it said "Editting tag", then crashed for the first time, and crashed again whenever I tried to edit that. Though, I found that that can be fixed just by deleting the movie file first through Windows Explorer, and then through iTunes (I didn't see it in Windows Explorer originally because I didn't realize that the re-labeling of the artist never went through, so I looked in the wrong folder, and I wasn't able to use Show Song File in order to see where it was, what with the constant crashing). Hopefully that'll help if anybody else ends up with the same problem.

IPhone shows up in iTunes but not Windows Explorer (after most recent iPhone update)

The phone shows up as a device in Devices and Printers, but not in the Device Manager...
Tried other suggestions, iPhone was unlocked when plugged in, restarted phone, uninstalled driver, restarted phone, etc. Running Windows 7, but same issue on other versions as well, all since last iPhone update. I did not have any prior issues with getting to my photos in Explorer!!!!!

Thanks.
That's wonderful, so now we are forced to use iTunes (the most unintuitive piece of crap program ever), or use a Mac and Image Capture??
or put them into the Cloud for everyone to see?

IPod visible in iTunes but not Windows explorer

Hi there,
I recently upgraded from windows 7 to Windows 8.1 and since then, my iPod touch and Windows do not seem to be getting along very well. Below is a screen shot of my device manager showing that very sad little yellow triangle next to my iPod. I have tried a number of things including restarting the Apple mobile divice driver and even reinstalling everything!!!
It doesn't make sense, since the iPod shows up just fine in iTunes and syncs without any problems, it is just not showing up in Windows 8.1! When I double click on the iPod, Windows tells me: "The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)"
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Thanks!

Did you:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Do you have a camera to attach to see if the computer sees it?

Ipod in itunes but not windows?

i hope someone can help me - this is my first ipod and it's doing my head in!
got my little 2gb shuffle... i have the latest itunes... i've done so many of the "fix-its" thru the apple website but i can still only see my ipod in itunes & not in 'my computer'. it's there where i first connect my ipod into the usb but after 10secs it disappears.
is this going to be a problem down the track? i can put music on my shuffle and listen to it so it seems all good on that side of things.

What you're seeing is normal behavior. IF you actually want to use the shuffle as a data storage device:
To enable iPod shuffle as an external disk:
1 Connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the Source pane.
3 Click the Settings tab.
4 In the Options section, select “Enable disk use.”
Note: You may need to scroll down to see the disk settings.
5 Adjust the slider to set how much space to reserve for songs versus data.
6 Click Apply.
When you use iPod shuffle as an external disk, the iPod shuffle disk icon appears on the
desktop on the Mac, or as the next available drive letter in Windows Explorer on a
Windows PC.

IPod classic 160gb recognized in itunes but not Windows

Bought this week and I have spent the last 3 hours trying to get this to work.
Windows says that the "hardware is installed and ready to use", but the iPod is not found in "My Computer".
Device Manager -> Apple mobile device usb driver says it is working properly. I have removed it, reinstalled it, restarted my computer, done the "5 R's" of Ipod troubleshooting nonsense and I am about to give up.
Let me also note that in device manager under disk drives there is "Apple Ipod usb device" when I go into properties under device status it says no drivers are installed for this device. I dont know if this has anything to do with it but if it does Windows says that I have the latest drivers for this device which is making my brain melt because it just said there are NO drivers! *deep breath...exhale.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

ok great now I see the ipod icon in my computer, thanks!. On to my next dilemma.
It says that when in this disk mode I can only go through itunes when adding files otherwise they will be just data files.
This is my first ipod ( ive been using a creative zen for years). I have not a single itunes file. What are my options for putting my entire 60 gb library on my comp hd into my itunes library without adding folder by folder. It would take forever manually.

SplashScreen class that works in Linux but not Windows?

OK so I wrote this splashscreen class:
public class SplashScreen extends JWindow {
    public SplashScreen(String imageFile, int msecs) {
        Image imgData = getToolkit().getImage(getClass().getResource(imageFile));
        System.out.println(imageFile);
        // Create label with image on it
        ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon(imgData);
        // Create label with image as content
        JLabel imageLabel = new JLabel(image);
        // Add label to content pane
        getContentPane().add(imageLabel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        // Resize window to match image
        pack();
        // Get the size of the screen and the size of the image
        Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
        Dimension imageSize = imageLabel.getPreferredSize();
        System.out.println(String.format("%d %d", imageSize.width, imageSize.height));
        // Center window on screen
        this.setLocation(screenSize.width/2 - (imageSize.width/2), screenSize.height/2 - (imageSize.height/2));
        // Runnable that handles closing down the screen
        final SplashScreen parent = this;
        final Runnable closeThread = new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                parent.setVisible(false);
                parent.dispose();
        // Thread that simple sleeps and then calls the closer
        final int waitTime = msecs;
        Thread waitThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                try {
                    Thread.sleep(waitTime);
                    SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(closeThread);
                } catch (Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
        // Display the screen
        setVisible(true);
        // Wait and close
        waitThread.start();
}Which I call thusly:
gui.SplashScreen sc = new gui.SplashScreen("/images/splashscreen.png", 2000);Obviously this is supposed to display the given image on the screen for 2 seconds before disappearing. My problem is that it works exactly like you'd expect in Linux, but when I run it in windows the image doesn't appear. The app loads and runs fine otherwise. I put some print outs in and verified that it looks like it's finding the image correctly, but then it just doesn't display... I'm stumped, does anyone have any clue why this would be a problem on different platforms?

Seriously? I tried it on two different windows machines and it didn't work.... Maybe it has something to do with how netbeans is jarring stuff up.

Help! Windows Explorer crashes regularly when using "SharePoint" directory synced with OneDrive for Business

We are using SharePoint 2013 and I want to sync document libraries with
OneDrive for Business with my PC running Windows 7.
In general, it works, but my Windows Explorer crashes very often (after a few minutes) when I navigate in the synced directories and open files there (or copy files into them in Windows Explorer).
How can I find out what happens and how to avoid it?
remark:
We are still using Office 2007, so I installed only OneDrive for Business from the Office 2013 DVD and
deactivated all other components like Office 2013 by hand:
(so for example, the shared office feature or MS Info Path etc. were not installed)
Is there a crash log, where I can find more information about the crash?
Does OneDrive maybe need other components to be installed and can I install them without damaging my existing Office 2007 setup?

Did you check your Event Viewer for any errors during the time when Windows Explorer crashed?
Thanks for this hint!
The Log file says the following, so it seems to be WIDCOMM\Bluetooth Software\btncopy.dll
to be responsible for the crashing Windows Explorer

The new iTunes 12 does not have a rent tab. I've downloaded two movies which appear in the Movies folder on my Windows Explorer but not in the actual iTunes programme itself. Completely frustrating!

The new iTunes 12 does not have a rent tab. I've downloaded two movies which appear in the Movies folder on my Windows Explorer but not in the actual iTunes programme itself. Completely frustrating! Where can I find these two movies to watch? It asked me once it was downloaded if I wanted to watch it but I wasn't ready to and now can't find where to play these again.

When iTunes/iPod sync process failed due to timeout, the iPod, has only the initilaised filesytem structure at the start of the Sync.
The timeout failure could be due to
Bad hardisk - do the iPod disk diagnostic, refer to this excellent post by tt2
Slow USB port or resource - Dont use any USB hub, disconnect all other USB devices while syncing
Timeout due to Antivirus or other plugins - disconnect from Internet and stop the Antivirus or monitoribng software if you are syncing.
Preferably stop doing other things while syncing this ancient device, which the latest iTunes designer, think will soon be extinct.
Have a nice day!

I have an old Ipod that won't show up on Windows Explorer but shows in Itunes., I have an old Ipod that won't show up on Windows Explorer but shows in Itunes.

In iTunes, select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES. Over to the right, go to the Summary tab.
There should be a checkbox that says Enable disk use. Check it and Apply the change. It should now appear in Windows, when the iPod is connected.
NOTE: When Disk Use is enable, you have to eject the iPod (in iTunes) before physically disconnecting it from computer.

Music video plays in itunes but not on ipod

hi
like my subject line states, i transferred a whole bunch of music videos off of dvd into mp4 format using videora.
they play in itunes but not on my ipod.
i transferred about 400 or so at the same time to ipod do you think that's why most of them won't play ?
should i do it one by one ?
thanks.

it's more than just the mp4 format. They need to be encoded correctly with the right dimensions and other attributes as well. I don't bother with this sort of thing right now. If there is anyone who has these specs, just post them here. Otherwise, you can always google them or search these boards for the proper format/size/encoding.
