Hi,
I've got the iPhone 3GS, and have just bought an iMac which I now want to sync it to. My old computer (acer) had wouldn't remove the videos so I decided to painstakingly email all 60 of them.
Problem now is the videos on my phone cant seem to be moved or played anymore. They are my own videos taken from the phone, family stuff etc, no downloads. I was able to edit and transfer files over a minute by editing on the phone, so I know about that limitation.
I was able to email a few of them, but all of a sudden I got an error message saying that a video could not be played. I went ahead and tried to email it and it froze. I had to turn the phone off and on to get any of the camera options working again. It flicks through an views all my photos fine, so I tried to email again and it froze just like the first time.
I tried the apple reset of holding down both buttons and the same issues occur.
I've tried several times using different videos clips but its still the same. I've noticed I cant take photos anymore either.
I tried image capture on the iMac ,it transferred all the photos fine, but not the videos, same as my acer.
The phone was never synced with the acer as it was only a temp computer until we got the iMac, it was originally synced with the 17" powerbook G4 (I know it was old..but I loved him till he died!)
I hope I've given enough info for someone to help me out! I did try google but I'm not particularly tech-minded!
Thanks for any help!
