Why a video file is able to transfer to my iPad 2 but not my iPhone 4?

Hi everyone,
I am experiencing a problem that is never happening before. There is a video file (MP4. H.264,AAC) which is normally support by my iPad 2 and iPhone 4 both devices. However when I sync it with my iPad, there is no problem with it at all. The video could play on iPad normally but when i sync the same file with my iPhone on the same laptop and same iTunes database, it is not working! And iTunes pop up a notification thats tell me "the file format is not support for yout iPhone". How could that happen??? I never have this problem before.
It is the matter because of the different iOS version? My iPad 2 is operating iOS 5.1.1 and my iPhone 4 is operating under iOS 4.3.3.
It is wired. Anybody could help me here?
With many many thanks.

  • Why am I no longer able to transfer individual songs from itunes to my iPhone?

    Why am I no longer able to transfer individual songs from itunes to my iPhone? I don't want to sync everything as I have over 2000 songs on my macbook. Please help!

    Hi ckuan,
    Thanks for the tip. I have tried this however, when I select the Sync music box, it wants to remove all of the music that is currently on my iphone. I do not want to do this. What happened to the old "select and drag" option? That was so much easier! I would like to add new music without removing the music that is currently on the iphone.

  • Hi, I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro but cant get the mirroring function to work with Apple TV.  I've got the most recent Software 10.7.5 but cant see the mirroring icon or turn this on.  I'm able to mirror from my Ipad but not my Mac, any thoughts?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    AirPlay Mirroring is supported on your Mac, but it needs OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
    You have two possibilities:
    1. Make a backup, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion to upgrade to this OS X. Then, you will find the AirPlay Mirroring icon at the top right of the display, on the menu bar, or on System Preferences > Displays.
    2. Keep OS X Lion and use AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
    Both options work properly, but I recommend AirPlay Mirroring as it doesn't need a third-party program

  • TS1702 I have recently begun to use Pages and want to transfer a document between the iPad and my PC. I can transfer to the iPad, but not the other way, and am told I do not have sufficient 'privileges'. What does this mean? Also can't use iCloud with Pag

    I have recently begun to use Pages and want to transfer a document between the iPad and my PC. I can transfer to the iPad, but not the other way, and am told I do not have sufficient 'privileges'. What does this mean? Also I can't use iCloud with Pages between the iPad and PC,  although I purchased extra storage in order to do this.

    If you have a PC, you don't have Pages on it. You can transfer Pages presentations to/from iCloud via http://www.icloud.com , however -- you just won't have an app on your PC to deal with Pages documents. Make sure that you have your iCloud account properly configured on your iPad.

  • Why are so many movies available in high def for ipad, but not for imac?

    ok. another question, why are so many itunes rentals and movies unavailable in high def for rent or buy on an imac?   i have a 27 inch imac.   and an ipad, and it's funny, it will let me rent a high def video on the ipad, but not on the imac.   it's wierd, i don't get it, because there are movies i would rent or buy on my imac, that i'm not going to buy now because of this. 

    It depends on the contract w/the distribution company. Lionsgate for example has licensed their movies for resale on iTunes, not rental. Paramount allows some movies to be sold(not sure which ones and why) and others for rental, but the standard rental agreement between Apple and the movie studios is that rents will not be available for 30 days after the DVD is released.
    Edit: Well, looking at the AppleTV site it looks like Lionsgate allows rentals also now, but there may be terms in the contract which say which movies can be bought/rented.

  • HT1595 Why is my Apple TV able to connect to the wireless but not the Internet?

    I cannot connect to the Internet! It's so frustrating it says it can connect to the wireless but not the Internet I know I have a signal because I have my laptop and iPad connected and working fine but its just Apple TV that cannot connect! Also when I continued without Internet it wouldn't let me sign in with my apple id even though I know it was right is this because I wasn't connected to the Internet? Someone help me please

    It's in your router.  Google is your friend, using the make and model of your router and the key words "port forwarding".
    There are lots of guides, for example http://www.wikihow.com/Set-up-Port-Forwarding-on-a-Router
    The hardest part is figuring out where to go in your particular router's menu system to type in the IP address of your Apple TV

    Can you send a screenshot of your phone?

  • Why are ibooks purchases/downloads showing up on my iPad but not my iPhone?

    I'm also seeing Notes on my iPhone, but not on my IPad. Thanks for any help!

    You can use same ID on both devices.   It's common.
    If you don't want to see contacts on both, just disable it under settings - mail,contacts, calendars - select your account, disable contacts

  • Why am i getting spam through my yahoo account on my iPad but not my iPhone?

    My iPhone4 and my iPad2 are both set up to receive email from my Yahoo mail account. I do not receive the spam emails on my iPhone but i am do my iPad. What setting do i need to change to stop receiving the spam on my iPad2?

    First, I'm assuming you and your wife use different iCloud accounts, since one account is generally intended for one user.
    How many emails go missing?  Are these from the @me.com/@mac.com addresses, or are you missing emails from other accounts, like google (gmail)?

  • I get emails on my ipad but not my iPhone why?

    My ISP helped me to get emails on my ipad by setting up an imap account on Outlook Express on my PC but since then I don't get them on my iPhone?  I've checked settings and they are the same on both products, so what's gone wrong?

    It sounds like the settings for the email account on your iPhone do not have the email setup as IMAP.

    the Wifi storage options are interesting but it seems they only allow to read files from the device on the iPad but not transfer files to the storage device via WiFi.
    I'm looking for a possibility to use the iPad for photography while traveling, without the access to a computer.
    Shooting photo's in RAW format crates pretty big files that will fill up the iPad's memory pretty fast if you shoot a lot during a (let's say) month long trip.
    my idea was to use load the photo's to the iPad so i could view them and sort out any bad ones. then copy them over to the storage device so i can continue using my CF cards for shooting. I have an image thank for copying the photo's directly to the HDD but it would be so sweet to be able to check them on the iPad before hand.
    any suggestions?

    Check out pogo plug device, it allows you to upload camera roll via wifi.

  • Why am I able to logon to certain website on an IPad but not with an Iphone

    I am able to log into certain internet sites on an IPad but not on my IPhone, why not?

    Please check if all your plugins are up-to-date. To do this, go to the [http://mozilla.com/plugincheck Mozilla Plugin Check site].
    Once you're there, the site will check if all your plugins have the latest versions.
    If you see plugins in the list that have a yellow ''Update'' button or a red ''Update now'' button, please update these immediately.
    To do so, please click each red or yellow button. Then you should see a site that allows you to download the latest version. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation and follow the steps mentioned in the installation procedure.

  • ICloud Photo Library: How do I transfer photos and videos only from my iPhone to my iPad but not from my iPad to my iPhone?

    I had iCloud photo libraey turned on on both my iPad and iPhone. As said by the feature, photos and videos were being transferred automatically from each device to each other. I have a 64GB iPad Air 2 and my iPhone 5 only has 16GB of storage so I am lacking much more space on my iPhone than my iPad. I was wondering if there was a way to transfer photos only from my iPhone to my iPad but not from my iPad to my iPhone. Would turning off iCloud Photo library on my iPad do the trick? Thanks hope someone can help me out.

    iCloud Photo Library keeps all of your photos in the Cloud which you then can selectively download. So, unless you download the iPad photos, they are not going to be taking up any room on your iPhone:
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    If you turn on Optimize [device] Storage, iCloud Photo Library will automatically manage the size of your library on your iOS device, so you can make the most of your device's storage and access more photos than ever. iCloud Photo Library stores the original, high-resolution photos and videos in iCloud and can keep lightweight, device-optimized versions on each of your devices. As long as you have enough storage, recent photos and videos that you access the most will stay on your device at full resolution.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    Here is a link to the FAQs page for iCloud Photo Library:

  • Hi, I have an old iphone 3 and for Xmas received an iphone 5. I have 2 apple ID accounts, one on each phone, for me to be able to transfer messages, fotos, contacts etc from the iphone 3 to 5 do I have to be using the same Apple ID account?  Many thanks.

    hi everyone, first time using this forum!
    I have an old iphone 3 and for Xmas received an iphone 5. I have 2 apple ID accounts, one on each phone. For me to be able to transfer messages, fotos, contacts etc from the iphone 3 to 5 do I have to be using the same Apple ID account?  Many thanks.

    You should only use one Apple ID for both phones.  All apps that you bought for your 3 are linked forever to the Apple ID used to buy them.  If you set up your iPhone 5 as a new phone, rather than restoring from a backup of the 3, you will lose the messages, but you can sync to get the pix, contacts and music.  It is safer to do it as a new phone, because sometimes restoring a backup from an earlier version of the phone can cause problems in the new phone (as told to me by an Apple store "genius" two days ago.)

    I am batch processing in PS 2014 (watermark and saving as jpeg from ps file). I get the message for some but not all 'this file needs to be saved as a copy with this option'. And then I have to save it manually. Does anyone know why this happens? (It is just a plain photoshop file, a watermark is added, then save as jpeg - the jpeg is saved to a different folder than the original photoshop file.)  It happens for about 10 of 30/40  files approximately . Thank you, Kathryn

    I believe I have figured it out - I need to flatten the image, even though there are no layers except for layer 0, first.
