New ipod classic , how do i get movies on it

Hi there, i recently got myself a new 80gb classic and i'm trying to get movies onto it but itunes only recognises about 3 of my movies ( they are all paid for and legit) it says these are in the wrong format as well. Does anyone know any way i could convert them to the required mpeg4 format or recommend a good free converting program.
Thanks in advance
John

Hey there
Should have read the terms and conditions properly, at the moment i'm looking at movies already on my hard drive , i got a free digital download of i am legend when i purchased the special edition dvd so thats already legal and paid for and the other movies are personal ones off my camcorder (handy for showing those holiday videos to relatives) i have absolutely zero experience in doing stuff like this so any help you could throw my way would be great.
Kind Regards
John

    Buy the songs that your friend put on the iPod that you liked. They had no right to give you the copyrighted music when they sold you the device.

  • I have a 120gb Classic that has no space left on it. i am going to buy a larger gb capacity ipod as soon as i get clearer instruction on how to get the old ipod content to the new ipod. How do you get content from one ipod to the other?

    how do you get content from one ipod to the new one? my content is on an external hard drive not on my pc and i have run out of space on my 120gb classic. can you get old ipod content to new? my itunes has only got short cuts, the real content is on an external drive? can this be done?? please help

    If the content is on an external drive, but your library knows where to find it, then it should all work. Connect your device, make some selections for what to put on it, and sync. If, on the other hand, your current iPod is the only place holding some of your media then see this user tip: Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • I have a ipod mini from 2005, it will only work on my charger.  I did get a new ipod 4touch, how do i get the music to the new one if i don't know the password of the mini.  My ex-husband set it up for me, i not aboout to call and ask for the password.

    I have a ipod mini from 2005,  it will only work on my charger.  I did get a new i pod touch 4, how do i get the music from the old mini to the new touch.  I have never put any music on it myself, my ex-husband did it all and has the password.  I never new it.  I'm sure not about to call him and I don't think he'd give it to me anyway.  Please help!!!

    I don't think the password will matter, because you can't use anything on the iPod or in iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store).  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
    The simple software "lock" used on iPods should not prevent you from off-loading the song files.  Once the song files are on your computer, you can add them to your iTunes library.  Then, you can do a Restore on the iPod to give it a fresh start and sync it (and the iPod touch) as desired.
    NOTE:  For songs purchased by you from the iTunes Store, you can also re-download them to your computer at no cost, from the iTunes Store Purchased screen.  The link to Purchased is on the iTunes Store Home screen, under QUICK LINKS.

  • I bought a HD TV show accidently instead of SD The show will not loador play on my ipod claSSIC. hOW DO i GET THE SHOW TO SYNC AND PLAY ON MY IPOD?

    I bought a HD TV show accidently instead of SD, it will not load or play on my ipod classic. How do i get this reformatted or what to get the show on my ipod?

    To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available.  You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

  • New computer, new Ipod. How can I get my purchases back?

    I have an Ipod. I deleted all my music off it. I bought a new computer. I've logged back into Itunes but it hasn't got any of my purchases recorded. I had bought quite a lot of music, how can I get it back?
    I know it'd be easy to re-authorise if i had just a new computer. But i don't have a copy of any of my music. So when I log into Itunes, it's as if I never bought the music.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • New Ipod Classic How to update to new Itunes with older Mac

    I have replaced Ipod Classic today, old one died. I have my library on Mac. New IPod needs itunes update and Mac OSX 10.5.8 can not support latest update. Classic needs update 9 or later.  How do I download an earlier Itunes to use new IPod?

    That iPod classic requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer. Mac OS X 10.6 DVDs are available on the online Apple Store; they require an Intel Mac with at least 1GB of RAM.

  • New Ipod Classic-how do I install ITunes to External HD

    I now have a 160 GB classic to upgrade from a full to capacity 30GB Fifth Gen. I have purchased a 1TB External HD (Seagate)to run ITunes to save space on the home PC. Please could someone guide me through the installation of ITunes straight to the new HD. I've just tried to download ITunes and the application has frozen.Also my existing ITunes library ( held on laptop) does not include all my existing Ipod items - is there a painless way to get my music tranferred from my old Ipod to my new one? I'm sure there is a straightforward solution - I just can't see it at the moment. Thank you in anticipation.

    Hello rajrishi,
    Simply connect the iPod to your computer and iTunes library, set it up to sync how you so desire, and then sync away.  Nothing else to it.
    There is no limit to the number oif iPods you can sync with one computer, iTunes library, or account.

  • How can I get films purchased from the iTunes store to work on my new iPod classic?

    I have recently purchased a new iPod classic, everything works accept it will not play films. At first I thought it was a problem with the films I was trying to put on as they were from my computer; but after purchasing some films from iTunes it still keeps saying that they cannot be played on this device. Please help as I have spent money on films I otherwise cannot watch.
    Any advice is welcome.

    Hey Shelly29,
    It sounds like you might be trying to sync HD videos to your iPod classic.
    HD videos purchased from the iTunes Store are compatible with iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), Apple TV, and computers. You may need to download your purchased video from iTunes in the Cloud in a lower resolution for your device.
    You'll want to check out the following article to resolve the issue, specifically the "Download previously purchased content in a lower resolution" section:

  • New 80gb ipod classic. Can't get itunes to sync music at all. HELP!

    I have a brand new ipod classic. It is fully charged and is connected to the computer. When the screen to register my ipod came up i clicked register later. Then the ipod software license agreement came up, so i read it, checked the box and clicked save. After clicking save, i figured it would go to a new screen like it did with my old ipod, but it still just stays on the license agreement screen. i have saved the license agreeement at least 5 times and the screen never changes. i have tried ejecting and reconnecting my ipod, switching the plug to another usb outlet and even restarting my computer. I checked for updates on the softwares to make sure i was up to date and i am. I don't know if this is an itunes or ipod issue. This is my second ipod, so i thought i knew how to troubleshoot and get around pretty much everything, but in this case i'm totally lost! Any ideas?

    I should've been more clear...it's not a monitor problem...i just can't get the software license agreement page to go away. After i check the box and click save and save it to my computer the screen won't change to the main page thing for my ipod so i can't even start syncing music until i can get that page to show up. I know how to sync my music once i get to that page, but i just don't know how many more times i have to save that stupid license agreement.

  • I getting no sound out of the USB connection in my car from my new iPod Classic. Has anyone encountered this problem?

    I getting no sound out of the USB connection in my cars from my new iPod classic. The song name artist display on the console in the car but no audio. This is happening on 2 cars - Nissan Rogue and Acura TL. My older iPod classic played fine in these cars. Has anyone encountered this issue?  

    I have a similar problem with a 160 gb Classic, about 5 years old - if I move the plug one channel may be heard and tehn the other. The interface works but not the sound. Different ipods eg nano work perfectly.
    The two cars I have are an Audi and a BMW and both have manufacturer connectors
