VIDEO WONT GO ONTO iTUNES!

Hi
I've posted this before, but didnt get a reply.
I'm trying to put a .wmv file into my library, but when I select 'add file to library' and select the file, nothing happens!
Help?!

While I'm not sure if iTunes can play it or not, iPods can't play wmv files, so maybe that's why... if you can convert to mp4, try that.

I bought a song on my iPhone and now it wont download onto iTunes on my computer.

I bought a song on my iPhone and now it wont download onto iTunes on my computer, even when I checked for available downloads all it says is, "All purchases have been downloaded for ths Apple ID". What should i do?

Hello rahulseth,
I would recommend for these symptoms that you delete the song and re download it using this article:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That should resolve any issues with the downloaded file.
All the best,

Cds wont burn onto itunes?

when i put a cd in to put it onto itunes a bar comes up that says accessing gracenote cddb and it says proccessing and when it finishes the artist column in the library highlights and then nothing happens?

Was just absent, eating. (SOME people have lives outside the internet
Try if switching any of those additional settings (play music while ... etc.) has an effect.
Other people having an similar problem have "solved" it by dragging the music titles from the windows explorer into iTunes.
One more thing: you might find the answer in the "Importing/Burning" forum

Videos Wont Load Into ITunes

Everytime I try and load a video into Itunes either by dragging and dropping or the add file to library my computer freezes for about 30 min. When it unfreezes the video doesnt show in Itunes. Any ideas? The videos are in the mp4 format so I know theyre compatable.

everytime I try to load video file into my library my computer crashes.
are you getting any sort of blue screen? if so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
if the blue screen mentions a specific file, let us know what that is called too. (exact spelling, please.)
here's a reference on the sorts of things i'm asking about:
Troubleshooting Windows Stop Messages
if you're not seeing a blue screen (or just a flash of one), we can use this technique to make hidden blue screens appear for us:
1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.

HT203180 Video wont play on itunes or sync to iphone

Im an amateur boxer and one of my fights was videoed for me and put onto dvd, i then extracted it from the dvd and converted into a file using windows movie maker, but the file wont play through my itunes and therefore i cant put my fight on my phone ! I dont get a error message saying it cant be played or anything, it just doesnt come up ! When i click open with itunes, itunes will load and then just show my library ?! Any suggestions ? Thanks

I mean that in the app store, the description of the app tells you what kind of hardware (what model phone) and what version of iOS the app requires to install and run... does your phone meet those requirements?

How come my videos wont play in itunes on my computer?

I tried to play back my videos I bought from the iTunes store and the ones I already had in the library. No videos (tv shows or music videos) just wont play. And I'm on a PC not a Mac. Thnx.

Are you getting an "iTunes has stopped working" message when you try to play the videos?
If so, try the following user tip:
iTunes for Windows 10.7.0.21: "iTunes has stopped working" error messages when playing videos, video podcasts, movies and TV shows

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You might check on your network router to see if IPv6 is turned on, if so try turning it off.

MPG4 video wont transfer to itunes

Hey everybody:
My problem:
I had a CD of 3 video files(the original format was 3GPP2 of 2 of them, and MPG4 of one of them -- Call them files 1, 2, and 3). The third file I was able to drag and drop into itunes, and I got it on my video ipod (all though Ipod had to convert it, interestingly, though it was allready mpg4... shrug thats not the issue though).
The other 2 files, I can't get into itunes for the life of me. Ive tried a number of things:
I converted them first with videora, then tried to drag and drop into itunes. No error, they just didnt show up. When I dragged them, the little plus and everything showed up.
Again with the converted files, I tried the "add file" and the "import" functions in itunes. Again, no error, the files just didnt show up.
I tried dragging the original file into itunes, thinking Id just convert them using the converter in itunes. AGAIN, no error, they just didnt show up in my video list.
I've added LOTS of video's to my ipod, downloaded, off CD's and I've never had this problem before. It's driving me up a wall! What am I missing??
PS. Im not running the latest version of Itunes. (I think its 6 that Im running) 7 is downloading as I speak, to see if that makes a difference.

Ok, so I looked at the properities of the files that videora converted for me, and although videora gave me no errors, the files it spitted out are pretty much useless. 0 bytes of data, and they wont play.
Ive never tried converting from 3GPP2 before, and am unfamiliar with the format. Videora doesnt recognize it as a media format, but it didnt give me any errors, so I assumed it worked. That answered the question of why it wouldnt transfer anyway.
From what I've found online, and seen in the properities of the file, I gather 3GPP2 is some type of compressed MPG4, or something... BTW, quick time plays the files in 3GPP2 format (and says they are some type of MPG4), but I can't drag and drop them into itunes. I get a circle with a line through it.
Long story short, anyone know how I can get those files into a format itunes can deal with, because aparently videora doesnt do it right!

MSN videos wont go onto iPod

How do I put a video onto my iPod if I got it from a friend on MSN messenger

Videora may not convert wmv files.
Try this...
http://www.filetrial.com/convert/wmvtomov.html
Then take that converted file and drag it into iTunes. Right click the video and go to convert selection for iPod.
That second converted video should transfer to iPod.

Mpeg1 video wont import into itunes for windows

This is a rather stange one.
I have an MPEG video that will run happily on MAC using either Quick Time or Itunes. Try the same on windows and one gets a 2048 error from quick time. itunes claims it's an unknown file type.
Real Player on window or MAC is perfectly happy with the file though.
I really need to get into itunes so that it can then loaded into a video ipod.
Any clues ?
thanks in advance

Videos wont load onto Ipod with sound

I recently downloaded some music videos to my computer (not through Itunes) and i uploaded them into Itunes and i put them in the Movies folder on Itunes 7.0.2, I right clicked the videos and clicked on Convert them to Ipod format
and it converted and then i uploaded them on my 5th generation 60 Gigabyte Ipod and i went to play them all, but i didnt have ANY SOUND,
in the origional i had sound, is there any way to convert a Movie Clip (thats what it says when i go to check what it is, it dosent say .WMA or .MP3 or anything like that) to an Ipod with sound

I replaced my 60gb when it dies out here in baghdad. im still here. i bought the 80gb vid...i got the music to play finally. but even though i restored it, it still wont play the videos i purchased directly from itunes. but it will play the ones i converted for it.
