iTunes or transfer M4V to iPad/iPod/iPhone/Apple TV. Is M4V supported by
Apple devices? If yes, why we can't add M4V to iTunes (including the
new iTunes 11)?
This article will explain the reason why iTunes
won't import M4V video files as well as provide the solution on how to
solve can't import M4V to iTunes issue.
Why iTunes won't Import M4V Video Files?
Though
M4V is developed by Apple and is used to encode TV episodes, movies,
and music videos in the iTunes Store, not all M4V files are produced by
Apple and supported by Apple devices like iTunes, Apple TV, iPad. So if
you got the M4V video from someone or somewhere instead of iTunes Store,
iTunes will refuse to import and play those M4V files (especially the
M4V movies that are not purchased through iTunes or the M4V video
created using CloneDVD Mobile, downloaded from websites, converted by
HandBrake or Toast 10 and etc).
