So I recorded a 12 min vid with the touch the other day, and it just' won't transfer to the computer. I get some error & it won't go through my desktop. The vid plays fine on my ipod. So I just did another test to record another 12 min vid, and I got the same problem with that video. Seems like I'm not able to transfer big videos to my computer because I'll get an error..... I run windows xp btw.

[Update one] - Ok, so i got it fixed. Apparently it's a huge problem, and they are going to have it fixed in IOS 4.2. The tech guy from apple told me the touch/iphone etc wasn't meant to record long videos. He showed me a manual way to get the file out of the ipod & it worked.

[Update two] - First u need to open itunes & plug in your ipod. Right click ur ipod & click backup. Then go to to my computer>tools>folder options> show all hidden folders. Then go to C>document setting>your username>application data>apple computer>mobile sync>backup>62323>copy save as .mov

Find the biggest file in the backup folder and rename it to .mov.

Are you using NTFS or FAT32 filesystem?

It might be a problem with itunes, you might want to call apple tech support.

Got the same problem with my 15 min vid recorded on my itouch... Can you write down the manual way to transfer the file on the computer? That would be really appreciated! Thanks!

One question, are you using Windows? Maybe that has something to do with it as iTunes doesn't always work the way it should

I recorded a 10 minute video once for a christmas party, and it had no issues. All I did was go to Computer>iPod touch>,dragged and dropped it to a folder I titled "iPod touch videos".
