Cant see Files

I just ripped a couple of Dvds into .m4v format to put onto my ipod but now i
cant see them in the folder unless im using Quicktime or CloneDVDMobile and
going to open file... When i try to move them through those windows it pops
an error msg saying file no longer exists, but i can play them in quicktime
like i said so they are there... Any help would be greatly appreciated...

In what folder did you place the files?

If they were placed somewhere in the C:\Program Files, C:\Windows, or in the
root of the C: drive, these folders are heavily secured in Vista and should
not be used for storing user created files and folders. Place them somewhere
in the Users folder instead.

To see the files you are talking about, open the folder and look for a
"Compatibility Files" button on the Command Bar. Click this button and it
should open the folder where the files were redirected.
