Video wouldn't play on iPod; Used Videora & still won't work
Hey guys, I have a 30 GB Video iPod, and I'm a bit new at this. I have some videos I downloaded and when I tried putting them into my iPod, it said it could not be played, since it was in .avi format.
But then, I found out about Videora, so I decided to try to convert my videos in Videora so it can play on my iPod video. Now, if anyone has used Videora before, they know that they have alot of options like MPEG-4/320x240/768 kpbs Stereo/128 kbps to H264/320x240/16:9/640 kpbs Stereo/128 Kpbs. When my video finished converting, I tried putting it into my iPod again, and it said it could not be played, even though it was in .mp4 format.
Could someone please tell me which one I should use, MPEG-4 or H264 ? And tell me what I'm doing wrong? I used Videora once to download a video, and now I can't seem to remember what I did. PLEASE HELP!?

My ipod nano 5th gen. won't play movies or tv shows but it plays them on itunes. When I click on it the screen flashes black. I have tried taking the videos off my ipod and then putting them back on but it still won't work. what should i do?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work. How can I fix this? This isn't the first time something like this has happened but it has never stayed this way for such a long time. If I have to send it in for repairs I will but I'm not sure if its under warranty
To check for warranty coverage:
https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for theother 4Gs. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Replace the jack yourself

When powering off my iPod touch, any application (facebook, viber etc)installed using App Store won't work again
How to solve this issue?Try a hard reset first. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If still no luck, try downloading and installing a new app from the App Store. Doing so has cleared the issue up for several users.

I had to return my first IPad2, and now the new one won't connect to iTunes. I verified I had the latest version, used the new cable and verified the port worked by syncing with my iPod, I reloaded 10.2.2 and restarted my PC. Still won't work - thoughts?
Sorry - found a couple of good threads right after posting.

i updated my computer to the os x and now i can't export my videos to quicktime i got the new compressor still won't let me please somebody help
You need to update the software. This is a very old version that will not work with the current OS. Did you purchase the software from the App Store? If do sign in with the Apple ID used to buy it. Go to the Purchases page and find the software.

My ipod video wouldn't play music anymore
Today i was listening to my ipod video and it was perfectly fine after an hour, I wanted to listen to it so I went on to artists and clicked on one, then it started skipping through all the songs in that artist and it wouldn't play any music at all! Please help! Its a ipod video - 30GB
The first things to try are these basic troubleshooting steps.

Hey everyone,
This is a strange one. I have about ten videos which I have purchased via iTunes. The videos play on iTunes, but they will no longer play on my 30GB iPod with video. The most bizarre part is that the iPod used to play videos, but now it no longer will. When I try to open one up on it, it starts to play, but it just shows a clip of the video in the spot where the album art normally shows--like it is trying to play the videos like a normal song. I have checked the Video Settings and they are all set up normally. Anyone have any ideas what to do?
Thanks -Your question may receive better attention posted in the correct forum. : )
