Video won't show on my iPod

I just bought my iPod yesterday. My other sister already has an iPod. We use separate computers. I took an MPEG-4 file from her playlist in her iTunes folder (in My Computer). And I copied it into mine. I put the file into a foler in My Computer and put it in my playlist. It told me that I had to authorize the file from my sisters account. So now her account is now authorized into 2 computers. I played the video and it shows in iTunes, but it doesn't show up on my iPod.
My sister uses iTunes 6, and I use version 7. We both use Windows.
Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Oh and I almost forgot. When I play the "Video" it looks as if I'm playing an audio file instead. It just shows the cover art.

  • My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.

  • Why won't my album cover won't show on my iPod touch 4g or my computer?

    Delete the songs with no artwork on your iPad and resync your music from iTunes on your computer.

  • Images on Tumblr and embeded videos won't show up

    The image/gif problem is only on Tumblr (as far as I saw), but it's as if the images weren't even there. (the way I see it, it only happens when I'm browsing through someone's tumblr, but when I enter a tag every picture showes, and on my dashboard as well). when I press reload, it reloads the entire site without the pictures. I tried a link on internet explorer and google chrome: it showed the pictures on IE, but not on GC. At first I thought it was because I didn't update firefox, but it showed up even after I updated everything (including adds-on). I also cleared my cookies and cache, and tried other things but nothing worked.
    Embedded videos won't show up anywhere.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions" or all domains via the about:permissions page
    *check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.image pref should be 1.
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • Some of my smart playlist's won't show on my ipod?

    I use several smart playlist's to collect different types of news to listen to on the go.  Most playlists work great.  I made a new playlist recently and it won't show on my ipod classic.  Any ideas?

    Are these smart playlists configured to sync to your iPod?  Double check your sync settings for your iPod via iTunes.

  • When I sync up my HD videos won't transfer onto my IPOD- Why? How can I fix this?

    I have an IPod Classic... I'm trying to sync up my HD videos- tv shows but they won't transfer onto my IPOD. Anyone know why?

    Ok so HD video is not supported, which explains the problem so what is the solution?  Do I have to put it through a converter to make the data and bit rate smaller? Would that even be possible?

  • Video podcasts not showing up on iPod

    Since the recent update of my iPod, my video podcasts are not syncing to my iPod.  When I sync with iTunes, I have all the podcasts (both audio and video) selected to sync but only the audio podcasts are available to me via my iPod.  What's going on here?

    OK, so there they are in a new place. Would have been courteous for Apple to give some clue that they were moving things around. Especially because the video podcasts still show up in iTunes in the same place as the audio podcasts, same as before. Thanks for tip, lllaass.

  • Downloaded videos won't upload to my iPod

    I downloaded Scrubs Seasons 5 and 6, and at first they were all shown on my ipod, but as time went on, the individual shows wouldn't appear on my ipod, only on my computer. How can I get all the shows on my ipod?

    First thing you can try is simply right clicking the tracks and picking the "Convert Selection for iPod" choice which might be enough.
    However if you find that it goes on the iPod but then has no audio...
    QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, when you convert videos in iTunes to iPod format they only show the video and no sound since iTunes (really QuickTime) is not looking for the audio track within the video track and it gets lost.

    One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

    but there are other applications besides MPEG Streamclip you can try as well.

  • Why the albuns artcover won´t show in the iPod?

    I have tried everything already, from unistalling iTunes (twice) to looking over all the manuals and check boxes in iTunes, and yet, some of the album artcovers don´t show in the iPod after sycing checked musics. The weird thing is that it has happened out of the blue, once it was everything ok before. I have this new iPod Touch for over 2 months now and it´s very fustrating not to have the artcover in it since I spent a lot of time and patiance adding all the right artcovers to the albuns.

    I am not that knowledgeable on ID but to start the discussion I would suggest you post where you are trying to view your PDF.  If you are viewing in Acrobat or Adobe Reader on a Desktop Client then there might be a problem.  But if you are trying to view on an iOS or Android device (or other mobile device) then that is the main cause as to why you can't view multimedia things and have interactivity.

  • Video won't show in timeline

    During editing, all of a sudden my video won't display in the viewer. You can scrub across your timeline and hear audio but can't see any video. If you move a clip around, the video comes back, for a while anyway and then does it again.
    Any ideas?

    what do you mean by WAB?
    Sorry about that, WAB = Work Area Bar. That is the little gray area on the Timeline Ruler. It has two "brackets," one on each end, plus a little "box" in the middle. It is used for several functions, including limiting what portion of a Timeline one would Render, or Export (in most formats). I should NOT affect display at all, but let's rule it out of the way early.
    On the PC, go to the mfgr's. Web site for your video card. Plug in your card's model and your exact OS. Check to see if you have their latest video driver installed. If not, download and install the latest. Do check the installation instructions, and follow those. They are usually just an un-ZIP, and install over the old one, but it can change.
    Good luck,

  • Itunes cover illustrations won't show on my ipod

    I've synchronised my brand new 80gb to itunes, but only a small part of the album illustrations that I added in Itunes show on my ipod. I've tried the 'repair' option and synchronised it all over again, but I'm still missing all those pictures.
    Has anybody else had this problem?
    I could really use some help here...

  • Why does it freeze after a few hours? Particularly YT videos won't show.

    If I leave my computer on for a couple of hours and then try using it, many functions freeze like the ability to copy/paste and Youtube videos don't show, it's just a blank screen. This has been going on for a long time and it gets very frustrating having to be restarting my computer every time this issue comes up. Another serious issue is when I want to go directly to any site ex. cpl retail, and instead of taking me there it takes me to a search page. I have to be using other internet options b/c this issues are really getting tiresome to deal with.

    It seems like your computer may be hanging on a process or perhaps even a long running script on the page you're on. If you will, please let me know how much RAM you have available when you start your computer, then how much you have after a few hours. This may be completely irrelevant, but it's worth a shot. :)

  • HD videos won't show up on ipad2

    Where does the HD videos go when connect SD card or Sony Camcorder CX700V on ipad2? 
    I only get the first frame of each video as a photo loaded....not the movie.
    Purchased iMovie app on ipad2 to edit.......so far only videos shot ON ipad 2 show up in iMovie,
    nothing shows up in iTunes either.
    PLEASE HELP!

    As it says on the desciption of iMovie:
    iMovie helps you turn the HD video you shoot on your iOS device into a thrilling trailer or masterpiece worthy of the red carpet
    Which means it was made to edit video that was ...

    So sorry, you may be out of luck.
    You can ask for a refund form Apple if you feel iMovie does not do what you want.
    iMovie iOS does edit some video from other cameras, but only a limited few, and there is no definitive list.
    Essentially your camera needs to shoot in Quicktime or mp4 format.
    Then you need to import the video via the camera connection kit (if the video does not show up then it is not compatible) or via the photos tab in iTunes.

  • IPod Touch videos won't show then crash and apps respond slow

    Here's the deal, I bought his iPod a couple months ago, 3rd generation 64GB and I could put videos on it fine and they would come up and I could play them, now since I updated it with 4.2 or 4.1 software from iTunes everything's running slower. My iPod takes longer to respond when I open an app or it just crashes and brings me back home. My video (standard) app won't even show any of my videos, it's just a white screen and then crashes. What happened and how do I fix it?

    I'm also having the same problem with the Videos app - interestingly enough, also with a 64GB 3rd Gen. Touch running 4.2.1 (build 8C148). Try to open Video app, it goes to white screen for a bit, then quits.
    Checked out another thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12678404&#12678404) and experienced the same behaviors as well: temporarily works if you change languages; restoring as a new iPod does NOT fix issue; music videos seem to play fine (though it seems to repeat a video, rather than move on to the next); and all that.
    The more I read about it, the more this seems to be a glitch in iOS. Moreover, it seems to be related to music videos somehow. Seems that the Music Videos and regular moves aren't playing nice.
    While music videos do play in the Music app, that's not particularly convenient for me. Going off one of the posts in the above-mentioned thread, I'm going to tray a temporary fix of relabeling my "Music Videos" to "Movies". Seemed things went wrong when Music Videos entered the picture. While a work-around, for me it's a little more usable than the inverse.
    Will report back whether or not this temporary fix works until Apple can release an update addressing this problem.

  • Videos don't show up on iPod video playlist

    Maybe I'm not understanding something, but I subscribe to a coupld of video podcasts. They update fine off iTunes and they synch over to my iPod. The problem is, they don't show up in any of the video playlists. They show up under the 'recently added' list of both music and video files.
    How can I get these things to list in the Video Podcast playlist?? Thanks for your help and thoughts!

    Julia,
    Do you have a Fifth Generation iPod, or not?
    Only Fifth Generation iPods are compatible with any videos, which include video podcasts that you try to download onto it.
    So, if you have a Nano, for example, it isn't won't be capable of playing any video files, sorry.
