First you need to figure out which generation your iPod is. I am assuming since your posting in the Nano forum it is a Nano. Is it one of the brand new models that was just released recently? Or is it one of the taller/skinnier ones?
Video playback is not possible on the Nano prior to the new 3rd generation.
Ooops... sort of repeated what Meg said. Thats what happens when you get a phone call in the middle of posting lol.

I still don't understand how to get video on my iPhone-HELP!

I have an iPhone and a iPod Classic and I just can't figure out how to get video on my either device, nothing I do works. I'm not talking about buying movies, etc from iTunes, I'm referring to videos I already have on my computer, converting them to the appropriate file extension (which I still have no idea what that is) and then where do I put these videos on my computer in order for iTunes to recognize them and pull them in?
I wish these devices were simplier to work with, where they acted as hard drives and you could just drag and drop what you wanted where and play them. But of course it has to be more complicated then this because Apple wants to control the users experience (sound familiar?)...I'm an advanced computer user and I have to admit that I'm embarrassed by the fact that I can't figure this out.
If anyone can give me SIMPLE instructions and a program to use to do video converstions I would appreciate it.
Thanks.

Im not going to be a great help as im on OS X, bit Ill have a go:
For a number of reasons, iTunes and the iPod/iPhone only support a handful of types of video file. Mainly a file type called .mp4 which is normally h.264 with embeded metadata. This isnt a special Apple video file, and as long as it doesnt have DRM, can be played on many modern devices such as the Xbox360, PSP, PS3 etc.
The only limiting thing you have to watch out for is the resolution of the video as some devices will not be able to play the higher resolution content such as a 1080p HDTV stream on an iPhone, it just wont play!
So what you need to do, if you have videos in many different file types such as realplayer, wmv, and avi etc, you need top convert them to mp4, and then optionally add cover art and tag the file with show name etc.
None of this is built in, partly because Apple wants you to buy content rather than get it elsewhere, and partly as itts a little more complicated than making an mp3 at the moment.
On my Mac I use a program called Handbrake (free) that can rip from DVD to an iphone version, and a program called VisualHub that can convert just about any video type to iphone format. After encoding the video, i use a program called MetaX to correctly tag the video fiels so that they are easy to find in iTunes and so that I can make smart playlists etc. Do this and the files in iTunes act just like if you had purchased them from the store.
Now, I dont know whats good for Windows, but I did a google search and found this which is free and for Windows:

How to get videos off my ipod back on my computer

I have to send my ipod back to have it fixed or replaced and Some of the videos I put on my ipod I deleted out of I tunes because my computer has a lack of space for all of it. I told the representative on the phone this and she told me someone online could tell me how to get videos off of my ipod and back on to my computer.

also, i don't know if you know this. is it possible to take my ipod into the apple store to have them fix it or replace it or do I have to mail it off. I didn't buy it at the apple store i bought it at circuit city.

TS1814 I have an iPhone 3GS and was trying to restore it. Now it won't let me activate my phone and my itunes tells me I have no SIM card inserted when I do. Any ideas on how to get it working again?? I'm dying without it!

I have an iPhone 3GS and was trying to restore it...
Now it won't let me activate my phone and my itunes tells me I have no SIM card inserted when I do.
Any ideas on how to get it working again?

This means that the phone was previously hacked to carrier unlock (unauthorized unlock), and when you restored, the hack was removed and it became re-locked to its original carrier. It will now accept a SIM card only from that carrier.
Your only option is to contact the carrier it's locked to and enquire if they will provide authorized unlocking. Not all carriers will unlock and those that do usually have requirements and qualifications - i.e. you have to be a current or former customer in good standing.

Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.
If you use iPhoto for this with any other digital camera, you can use iPhoto for this. Or you can use the Image Capture application for the import if you don't use iPhoto.

My guess is that you won't be able to do much if you threw away the serial number before using it. The serial number will not have been externally visible on the box though... doing that would make it available for use by anyone who sees the box in any store.
To locate the serial number:

If you remain unable to locate the serial number you might need to head back to wherever you purchased the product to confirm whether or not you might have thrown out the serial number or if it could even possibly have never been provided.
Beyond that you need to resolve serial number issues with ASdobe Support directly. Here is a link for chat:

How to get a work roster into ical

Hi there
Does anyone know how to get a work roster into ical so I can then sync it with my iphone and view my roster on my phone?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
All the best
Enigma

Depends on the format of the "work roster" - if it's a calendar file, you can import it with File menu > Import. If it's some other file type, you may not be able to import it and need to enter the events manually instead.
You might try the iCal forum.

How to get video of more than one security camera in java

I want to get video from more than one security cameras and i really donot know yet how we do this that get videos continously with more than one camera
olz i a beginner help me

Hello.
I don't know if the topic still matters, but as I took advantage from the information in the preview posts, I decided to give my share.
I successfully ran three webcameras at the same time in a Linux machine with JMF.
The two main issues are:
1. It is necessary to run the binary "jmfregistry" ($JMFHOME/bin/jmfregistry) to detect the cameras every time a new one is added to the system. (Remember to run the binary with a user with write privileges on the registry file ($JMFHOME/lig/jmf.properties)).
2. It is mandatory to plug each camera in a different usb bus. In my case, the PC I was using had three accessible two-ports buses, two in the rear and one in the front of the box. If we try to use two cameras in the same bus, one of them won't work or the detecting procedure in the "jmfregistry" program will hang.
I hope it helps. Any question, please feel free to ask.
Andr� Braga
My configuration:
Java:
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_01-b06)
JMF-2.1.1e_linux_native
The machine:
OpenSuse Linux version 10.2 (kernel 2.6.18.2-34-default)
running in a Celeron D processor 2.66 GHz
Motherboard: Giga-byte GA-8IPE1000 Pro2 motherboard (865PE)
The result of the "lsusb" command:
Bus 004 Device 004: ID 0ac8:303b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0303 WebCam
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 002 Device 023: ID 0c45:6007 Microdia
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0ac8:301b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0301 WebCam
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
In time (for linuxers): It was necessary to download and install the gspcav driver (http://mxhaard.free.fr/). It is also necessary do load this driver before the camera driver:
modprobe gspca
modprobe zc0301 (this one comes with the distribution)

How to get passwords working in Pages documents?

I've set a pages document to require a password to open. When I open the file, it opens without requiring this password. Any thoughts on how to get the password working? The doc is on icloud, could that be a factor?

Finally, I've added a new field movement in transaction GCF2 with sender tables ACCHD, ACCIT_GLX AND ACCCR. The joint venture name comes only from FI documents and not JVA documents, so, only JVA information of P&L accounts is available.
Best regards,
