I was looking for the same answer, when I stumbled upon this old thread. I was able to figure it out and I'm leaving this here in case someone else comes along looking for the answer.


  1. Connect your phone to your computer.
  2. Open iTunes
  3. Click on the Phone Icon in the top left corner of iTunes
  4. Click on "Photos" in the left column
  5. In the main window, click on "Sync Photos". Choose where you would like to copy your videos from (most like "Photos"). Also check the box next to "Include videos". In the Albums section, you can check the box next to "Videos". This will add an album that contains all of your videos.
  6. In the bottom right corner of iTunes, click on "Apply" or "Sync" and the sync process will begin.
  7. When done, your videos will now be on your iPhone in an album called "Videos"

You can download the free iSquint to convert a video for iPod/iPhone use. Once converted, the video can be synced and transfered from iTunes to your mobile device. Video will be added to the Video App. Hope this helps. Next question for me is how to share the video using Viber because it cannot be retrieved from the "Gallery." (sigh)

Exatcly the same problem. There seems to be a big flaw in i tunes (sync) section. The videos i had backed up on my i cloud which then i dowloaded on my hard drive lin order to bring it back to my gallery. Unfortunately, the videos only get synced to another file called "videos" (which can only be viwed from your mobile. You can not send this via wats app to anyone nor create a movie on ur i phone or anything like that becuase the clips arent in ur gallery. So dissappinted with apple. I tunes is useless.
