Videos not selectable in iTunes

I have an IPod Touch 4th Gen. In iTunes, I search Game of Thrones and select an episode. When the episode page comes up, I cannot select to purchase. It is a light gray and will not let me select Buy or Preview. Does not mention HD or SD anywhere. I have downloaded other episodes before, but suddenly I cannot download or preview any movies or TV episodes. I can preview music videos. Thanks!

Try a reset. It cures many ills and nothing is 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.

Videos not syncing with iTunes on Windows 7

I have been using my iPhone 4 as a camcorder a lot lately and I have tons of videos of my kids that I would like to start putting together for a DVD. The only problem is that iTunes doesn't sync the movies from my camera roll.
Thankfully Windows 7 allows me to open up my iPhone 4 image directory every time I connect, so I can go in there and manually transfer the videos. However, this is a pain that I shouldn't need to endure.
With my iPhone connected and selected in iTunes, I went to the "Photos" tab of iTunes and checked the box to "sync movies." The movies still do not sync.
Message was edited by: killerbear (changed "role" to "roll")

The word "Sync" seems to be misleading. Synchronizing is making 2 sources match each other. This apparently is not what iTunes does. It's really disappointing to find this out. Especially when I am locked out of so many areas of my phone when accessing the phone from my computer.
It is a sync process that is mostly a transfer process with some data kept synchronized by definition with a supported application on your computer such as with contacts, calendar events, notes, and Safari bookmarks, and all other data being a transfer process only. All iTunes content is a transfer process and the same for photos transferred from your computer. iTunes does not handle the importing of photos from any digital camera including from the iPhone's Camera Roll. Some people prefer storing photos imported from a digital camera on their computer manually, and some prefer using a photo storage application such as iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac.

Video not working in itunes 9.2

Hi
I hope anyone can help please. I upgraded my iTunes on Windows 7 to iTunes 9.2. Then upgraded my iPhone 3G to iOS 4. Since then I have been unable to play my purchased videos. Just a black screen appears and nothing happens.Even when I try to play a video preview in the "iTunes Store" nothing happens. Please advise?

If I read the specifications correctly, both the second generation (aka, "802.11n (1st generation )) and third generation (aka, "802.11n (2nd generation )) AirPort Express do not support Airtunes on OS v10.5.6 and earlier.

Frustrating indeed.

Videos not playing in iTunes 7, where can I get previous version of iTunes

Since "upgrading" to iTunes 7, I can't get any of my videos to play in iTunes--they show up but nothing happens when I try to play them. This includes videos I bought via iTunes and DVDs I imported using Handbrake. I didn't upgrade to Quicktime 7 because I was afraid it would cause even more problems for the movies spent hours importing. So I have two questions:
(1) If I get the upgrade to Quicktime 7, will that allow my videos to play?
(2) If not, how can I revert back to the earlier version of iTunes? I have tried searching the forums and have found some information about how to remove iTunes 7, but can't find where to download the previous version (would that be 6.05--I can't remember).
Please help! Thanks.

Never mind. I found iTunes 6.05 in the Downloads section of the Apple page. Now I'm back, thank God.

Purchased videos not playing in iTunes

Hello, recently my purchased TV shows are not playing in iTunes. Video window comes up, and the play time increases, but there is no video or sound.
If I go into "C:\Users\Derek\Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\TV Shows\" and open the m4v file in QuickTime the videos play just fine. (they just refuse to play in iTunes)
Any ideas?
PS: I'm on latest version of both iTunes and QT (just checked).

Any ideas?

Sync Contacts & Calendars not selected in iTunes, iPhone seems to sync

My phone seems to be keeping everything in sync, but in under the Info tab in iTunes, "Sync Contacts," "Sync Calendars," and "Sync Mail Accounts" are not selected.
In the recent past, I assumed that this was a problem and I clicked on the boxes. When I did, it screwed everything up (created duplicate contacts, etc.). Since I'm using iCloud, do I no longe need to have these boxes selected?

Did you try clicking the toggle in iTunes that allow you to select the calendars manually? I think it's on the second tab in iTunes when the iPhone is selected.

IPod video not recognized by iTunes after bad disconnect

I recently disconnected my iPod without ejecting it first, (disk mode is enabled), and I had done it a few times before without a problem, so I figured why not. But this time it didn't work out. All of my music, videos etc are seemingly erased from the iPod, and only one thing remains - the few notes files (song lyrics) that I had on it. The iPod is no longer recognized in iTunes.. but I suppose windows recognizes it, except it seems to treat it just as a mass storage device or something. I ran the diagnostics test here:

I can't restore it because it doesn't show up in iTunes, and I've tried all the support suggestions on the main page. Anyone have any idea what the problem is?

Ok, since my last post I messed around a bit more. I found that dragging the F drive that the iPod was in from windows explorer to iTunes that iTunes recognized it, but said it was corrupted. So I tried to restore it, but I got error 1418. So I reset my computer, tried restoring again, and it worked. I thought I had it figured out but iTunes says its still corrupted. I figure this is something I'm certainly going to have to send to apple to have fixed?

IPod Video not recognized by iTunes

hello,
I just got my iPod Video 60G. I currently have USB 1.1 as part of my computer. When I plug it in to any of those ports, iPod works fine. However, I decided to get a PCI USB 2.0 card so I can improve the performance of the iPod. When I plug the iPod in those USB ports, the iPod does not get picked up in iTunes. As well, it only shows as a Generic Drive in MyComputer, as opposed to the name that was assigned to the iPod like it does when I plug it into the USB 1.1 ports.
I'm not sure if this is an iPod issue or a USB port issue. I tried plugging other devices into these USB drives and they work fine.
I don't want to start removing and resetting things before I know what the problem is.
Please help...
Thanks.

Try reinstalling the iPod software and then connect your iPod in the USB2. Maybe the software picks up what connection you have and currently only will recognize the USB1.

Videos not playing in itunes HELP

So I downgraded my iTunes 11 to 10.6 since I hate the new interface. But I've come with two roadblocks.
1) videos that I've purchased OR i want to preview before purchase will not play. they are just black screens and the timer does not move, there is no audio, no anything. when i re upgrade to 11, everything is fine. but i want my 10.6 back.
2) EVERY TIME i try to play a video, regardless of what video in my iTunes, it prompts me to authorize my computer and I enter my information, but it prompts me every single time, followed by the message that 1 out of the 5 computers you can authorize is authorized.
anyone help : (

Never mind. I found iTunes 6.05 in the Downloads section of the Apple page. Now I'm back, thank God.

Videos not playing in iTunes

I cannot play my videos in iTunes 7.0.1. They are purchased via iTunes on my G5 tower and I used to be able to play them on my MacBook Pro laptop before I uploaded 7.0. I can view the videos and high light them but when I press play, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? Also, the videos will not upload to my iPod (it says that I am not authorized). I'm assuming that once I can get them to play in iTunes, the iPod problem will be fixed.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the tip. I tried downloading the latest QuickTime and it keeps freezing mid-download (this is not an internet connection issue). I thought updating my OS might help, so I attempted to download the latest OS 10.4.8 and that freezes mid-download as well. Why is it that I can't download anything?

On my ipod it's black and on my pc it's bright flashes of color.
Hmmm. I think you might have two different things going on there.
For iTunes (the PC), try starting with the "Disable Direct3D acceleration" section from the following document:
Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows XP and 2000 video playback performance issues
For the iPod, try the following document:

Video not downloading from itunes

I purchased a TV series from itunes and I am having a problem downloading the individual shows from the season. I went in and deleted all the other videos i have previously purchased on my ipad, and i have restarted the download several times. Any ideas?

Is your HDMI cable snuggle plugged in TV and Apple TV or ate you using optical?
Did you turn Dolby Digital On? If so set it to auto and see what happens.

ItunesU videos not playing in Itunes but play ok if you download to laptop's drive and run them from windows directory

I'm having a problem playing some ItunesU videos, some play okay, some just show black screen and don't play, others show a still image but then doesn't play when trying to view them from itunes store. The audio files play with no issues.
I am using windows 7.
However, if I download the videos that don't play to the laptop's drive and run them from the windows directory they play okay. I don't want to have to download videos to see if they are something I'd like to watch.
Just for reference, an example of a video that plays okay is by UC Berkeley Math 16A 001, Fall 2011. Another is Introduction to Robotics by MIT.
An example that just shows blank screen is Stanford's Iphone & Ipad development, Fall 2011, both HD and SD versions.
While an example of a video that just shows the initial image but doesn't play is Harvard's Statistics 110. If you adjust the time of the video, the video moves to that part of the video but only shows the image at that time, ex. at 13:02, but doesn't play.
I've tried reinstalling quicktime first, then itunes. I've also tried putting directdraw in safe mode, but the problem videos still won't play.
Could it be some setting, since it plays when the file is downloaded but won't play straight from itunes store online (ie. pressing the play button beside the video in the itunes list).
Help pls.

You might have more luck asking on a general Windows troubleshooting site, but my guess would be an invalid or old audio or CD driver (or firmware in the drive). You might try checking those to make sure you have the correct and most current drivers.

Video not transfering to Itunes

Can someone help me, I'm having trouble transferring a couple of videos to itunes as well as my 60g video ipod. When I drag the file over it doesn't appear, even when i go to file -> add file it doesn't appear....I've transferred a couple of videos before this. I don't know if it has something to do with the size, but the one that works is 34.4megs and the others are over 36megs and up. They are the same file format as the ones i already transferred. If anyone can help, I'll gladly appreciate it.

to play on the iPod the specification states that they also need to comply with:
H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
you should be able to see this by inspection in quicktime
