Sorry if this is the wrong area and sorry if this has been brought up before. I did a search and couldn't find it. Please any help on this would be great.

1. what do I need to do to watch video's i have made on my phone once I transfered them over to my computer. media player dosnt show the video.

2. how do i make video's that are alread on my computer viewable on my g1.

3. nothing to do with video's but when I had my blackberry 8120 I could make a hidden folder so not everybody checking out my phone can see. I've tried to do this with my g1 and so far no go.

any help with the 3 questions would be GREAT. thank you. or pm the answers if for some reason this thread gets locked or not answered.

you need to download Quicktime to play the video files on your computer.

and you will need to convert video files that you are putting on your phone to MP4 format. down load VIDEORA IPOD CONVERTER and install it on your computer....it will convert video to proper format for your phone

1. Try VLC player.

2. Get a video converter and make sure they are in MP4 format.

3. No idea

For some reason quicktime is not playing the video's. saying error. Maybe I need to update the quicktime or reinstall it. havn't used it in years. Also the videora ipod converter once I get to final stage of click convert there's no button ha so not sure if there is a bug on the webpage or not. What does everybody else use to watch and convert video's to put on g1. thanks everybody.
