Why won't my music videos work on my ipod?

After downloading the new itunes 7, I found that my music videos and video podcasts (downloaded from the itunes store) were erased from my ipod and will no longer transfer to the ipod. I keep getting a message saying it can't download to my ipod but, why? I've had no problems before. Is there a solution to this problem?

I, too, am having problems with iTunes 7 and videos. I got the "cannot be read from or written to message". So I restarted the computer, reset the iPod and repaired permissions, then I got this message. "Some of the videos in your iTunes library were not copied to the iPod "Video iPod" because they cannot be played on this iPod." All these movies and TV shows worked perfectly well yesterday, but now iTunes removed them all from my iPod and will not sync them back. I have tried restoring the iPod software, and resetting the iPod but that did not fix the problem. Any ideas?

Why won't the music app work after the IOS 7.1 update?

Every time i try to listen to my music in the Apple Music app it opens then freezes. Sometimes it will let me open an artist but wont play the songs. I tried going into the settings to see if i could change anything but it wont let me open the music settings tab, the button just turns gray and freezes my phone. I've tried force quitting the app and re starting my phone and nothing has worked.

Hello mbongi1,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the Music app on your iPhone. You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already to isolate and troubleshoot the issue. I have a couple of additional suggestions you can try.
First, I recommend resetting your iPhone:
Reset
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

If the issue persists after resetting your iPhone, I recommed backing up and restoring your iPhone:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Why won't my music app work?

My Music app opens, but then it's frozen. It won't let me click on anything, and the screen doesn't move when I try to scroll.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Why won't my forward camera work on my iPod touh, Why won't my forward camera work on my iPod touh

Hello. I was recently outside for a good tournament for 6 hours. After about 3 hours my iPod got extremely hot. I had a cooler with a n ice pack inside and I thought it would cool it down. So I put it in their and forgot about it but I took it out after I remembered it. But it got hot again and I did the same thing. But this time it was in there closer. And today I tried taking a picture of myself and the forward camera doesn't open and it goes back to the camera facing away from me. And snap chat doesn't work either now. I don't know if the two are tied together or not. Any help will be much appreciated.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

Why dont the music & music videos work the same as on iPhone?

why dont the music & music videos work the same as on iPhone?

Gettingonmynerves, in my honest opinion, you will be gettingabsolutelynowhere in your attemp to edit AVCHD files natively with PE using a Laptop.
Your system is seriously underpowered for the task at hand.
Most folks would recommend at least a Quad Core desktop, tuned for perfomance.
What you might try is to convert the AVCHD to traditional HDV via this link:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/390605?tstart=0
This may buy you some relief, but even with the convert, I think it will still be a challenge to edit these formats on a laptop.
You could also try to down convert the video via the Camera, if that feature is available. I don't have or use a High Def Camera at this time so I can't help much with the Camera possibilities.
Again it's not an issue with the laptop itself, it probably works great for it's intended use, unfortunately it is not up to the task, performance wise, for editing the ACVHD or High Def formats with PE...
Good Luck...

Why won't my music play on my iPhone 4s?

why won't my music play on my iPhone 4s? it was playing thru the music app but now it's not playing. It show the song but doesn't do anything.

I had this issue when I first upgraded my Iphone4 to ios5. All my music appeared on my device as they always have but they would not play. I searched around online and it appears there was mention of unchecking the "sync music" check box in itunes under the music tab (when device is connected) and syncing your device. I then unchecked all my playlists and synced again then started adding back my music from scratch. After that headache - everything seemed to be back to normal and my music was working once again.

Hey guys, here's my problem.
I had some major issues with OSX last week that a trip to the Apple Store couldn't fix. Their only advice was to save all my pictures, music, documents, etc. and reformat. I did that yesterday. I reinstalled everything and then downloaded all the most recent updates.
Today, I can play all the music I own in iTunes (music imported from CDs, bought from other sites, and music bought from iTunes itself). However, it won't play any of the music videos I have (all bought off iTunes).
I have authorized the computer again and again. When I try to open the videos in Quicktime it tells me that I don't have permission to play them and that I need to authorize the computer.
I'm lost. Any help?

Yup, this Audio but no Video WAS exactly the same trouble I was having, on my MacBook and iMac but not the other 2 MacBooks. This was due to the speaker settings at the bottom right hand corner of the iTunes window. I do use multiple speakers via Airtunes, on the two that were having trouble but not the other two, and although the speakers were only set to the computer it still wouldn't play the video content.
Whilst the audio (of the music video) was playing I then went to reselect multiple speakers, which brought up the "*failure to connect to remote speakers network refused connection*" warning, then I unchecked the remote speakers to leave just the "Computer" and hey presto the video came to life.
Thank you Charles C n Miami and hope this extra info helps.
Happy Music Video Watching

There wasn't an answer, just a question. If you can provide a little detail around what's actually happening, and more about the environment (e.g. what model computer, its configuration, etc) it'll help people provide a solution .

Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?

Why can I copy music to my iPad or iPod touch from multiple computers but from only one computer using my iPhone?
IPads and iPod Touches don't seem to have the same media copying restriction that my iPhone has. My main computer is at home. I have music at home and at work and sometimes I like to add it to my iPhone from work. I can do this no problem using my iPad or my iPod touch, but when it comes to my iPhone, I can only copy music to it from my main computer.
Why would the iPhone have this restriction but not the other two devices?
ps. Where's my "add currently playing song to playlist" button? I can't even find a third-party music app with this feature.

Because...!
I've no idea why either.
Although it isn't normally possible to sync an iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers (or manually manage an iPhone from more than one) it can be achieved if all computers have copies of the self same library. See Re: how do i sync on a second laptop without the data on my iPhone 5 being erased?

Why won't my album artwork sync to my iPod Touch but it shows up on iTunes?

Why won't my album artwork sync to my iPod Touch but it shows up on iTunes?

Ok I had this problem, and for me at least what happened was that not all the album artwork was attached to all songs on the album. So if you right click one of the albums you are having an issue with, the click artwork tab, and go through each song on the album, if it is missing from any of them it will not sync properly to any device. Find the songs that have the artwork, and then right click to copy it, then go to songs without it, and right click in the blank box and paste it in there. Then once finished with any issues you are having sync iPod, this should fix the problem. It worked for me, and it was unbelievably frustrating to know I have the artwork, but it wasn't showing up anywhere on the iPod. Hopefully this fixes the issue for you, like it did for me!

ITunes 7.4 won't play music videos

When I doubleclick on a music video, iTunes 7.4 won't play the video, only the music. Music videos where playing fine with prior versions of iTunes. No matter which option I choose in the Video Playback preferences, iTunes won't launch the video. Restarting iTunes didn't bring back music video playback either. Podcasts and Movies are playing just fine though.
Any help ?
Thanks

I had the same problem and I landed here - OS10.7, had iTunes 10.5.2 *thinking* it was playing - acts like it was?, shows pause icon - no audio, no actual playback. ...Scrubber dot didn't move onPlay click. (And, dam, I was hungry for music!), but.. That's where I discovered it. Of course, I had browser audio probs, too - YouTube, Hulu - and Skype - any app output audio was affected...
   I struggled with this for at least a day! Frustrated, I took out my other OS10 boot drives and tried troubleshooting... No dice. I halted CoreAudioD (whew) out of desperation... I checked my audio lines.. Then I remembered I installed a trial of ProTools with an Avid audio driver (maybe looking for Digi-approved devices) at around the time of trouble.
     My SysPref audio panel was showing only Avid's device - no line in, no ext spkr.. So, I ran the ProTools uninstaller to try that. That's where EVERYTHING went back to absolutely normal! (After the restart). SysPref Audio panel shows all! I selected LineOut (for me), and I got it.
     iTunes and other audio-service-consuming apps suddenly didn't take 4 minutes to launch!, and my Lion install was like I first had it. ProTools has a dedicated uninstaller - install that clean. If you have a PT install that works, check the iLok config - my iLok is active and attached, but not for PT 10. Maybe it's avid device->CoreAudio, may it's due to the PT trial???... Whatever it was, for me, the problem lied there.
     Hope that helps any of you guys. Good luck and thanks for the direction, bros..
