Can i use video on ipod gen 2

I have an ipod touch gen 2.  Its ios is updated to 4.2.  On May 9th I ordered Doctor Who The Elventh Hour from the ipod store.  I tried to put it on my ipod.  I get the message Dr. Who was not copied to Dads ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod.  Is that so?  I went through express lane, got two calls.  I was told to update my ios to 5.  I cannot do that as it is generation 2. If I cannot use it on my ipod, why not?  If I can how?  How can I tell what I can use on my ipod and what I cant?

When buying HD versions of shows, only the HD copy will automatically download now (probably due to requests from people who don't need/want the SD version and complained about it being forced on them). The SD copy can be downloaded from your purchases area in iTunes. On the main iTunes Store page, go to Purchases under the Quick Links and then select TV shows. Click the "Not On This Computer" button. Uncheck the "Download HD when available" box and you should then see the SD copies of the shows and be able to download them.
Regards.

    I am on Vacations in Nicaragua and I just lost my Ipod. I did not turned on the ICloud. How can I use "Find my Ipod".? please help me.

    You cannot use it.  You would have had to set it up on your ipod itself before you lost it.  Since you did not "turn on the icloud", then you have not set up find my ipod.
    Sorry.
    There is no way to track your ipod.

    Can I use my 160gb iPod classic as an external hard drive for my MacBook?

    That link seems to be broken.  It does normally lead to a solution. For the time being go to

    Let your mouse hover over the link until you see the option appear on the right to view the cached version Google contains:
    Putting iPod devices with a Click Wheel into Disk Mode
    If necessary, verify that your iPod has a Click Wheel.
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it is charged.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off (set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons for at least six seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    When the Apple logo appears, release the Menu and Select buttons and immediately press and hold the Select and the Play/Pause buttons until the Disk Mode screen appears.
    Connect the iPod to your computer; the screen on the iPod will should say "Do not disconnect".
    If you are having difficulty putting your iPod into Disk Mode, set it on a flat surface. Make sure that the finger pressing the Select button is not touching the Click Wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Play/Pause button toward the outside of the Click Wheel and not near the center. If you are still unable to put your iPod into Disk Mode, use one finger from one hand to press the Select button, and one finger from the other hand to press the Play/Pause button.
    If you have an older iPod model, without a Click Wheel
    Before placing the iPod into Disk Mode, verify that it has a charge.
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off (set it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons until the Apple/iPod logo appears, then release them. This resets iPod. When you reset iPod, all your music and data files are saved, but some customized settings may be lost.

  • How can I use app find iPod  for my daughters iPod even if she has own acct Id?

    How can I use app find iPod  for my daughters iPod even if she has own acct Id?

    Hi,
    So far so good! I was successful with my first request-and thanks, but I guess i did not ask enough.
    New question: Is there any way for me to have my Apple devices show up with my daughters even though we have different apple id's? I was able to have her sign in and I could see but, if she doesn't sign in I can't see her device. She is only 15 and I going on a trip soon that I would like to just have security if she looses her device or I'll know she is okay. I don't want to sync and see everything, just the where abouts of the device. We were able to create a music folder for her music only and not mine- Success!
    Did I ask too much?
    Thanks for your quick reply!

  • Can I use the 40g/ipod charger with my ipad2?

    Can I use the 40g/ipod charger with my ipad2?

    Not the best idea, it'll overheat and could damage either the ipad or the charger. The iPad will be attempting to draw more wattage then the little charger is designed to put out.
    Here is a link for the proper one http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC359LL/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjA
    This would work for both :)

    It will charge slower and hotter.

  • What Itunes version can i use both and ipod classic and ipod touch?

    What Itunes version can i use both and ipod classic and ipod touch?

    Hello laurie0823,
    already have ipod 32 gig and just go ipod touch 8 gig can i use both on same itunes account?
    Yes. There is no limit to the number of iPods you can have synced with one iTunes account or library.
    if i hook up ipod touch will i lose all of the stuff in library or can i sync library to ipod touch?
    No you can sync your content to any number of devices.
    Simply, plug new iPod in, configure it to sync with iTunes library however you wish and be on your way.
    For more help on different ways to manage multiple ipods with one computer, see this Apple support document.

  • Can i use my old IPOD dock with the new G5 IPOD?

    Can i use my old IPOD dock with the new G5 IPOD?

    That's really good to know. I thought because it was a different thickness you wouldn't be able to, and the dock adaptor that comes with the new iPods doesn't fit into the old Photo dock.
    Do you know if you can use the charger that came with the old Photo iPods? You can plug straight into the power socket, but the cable that goes into the charger from the iPod is the firewire cable, so I was thinking maybe it wouldn't work, and I don't want to try it in case I short out my iPod or something!

  • Can i use & charge my iPod Touch at the same time??

    If i am using and charging my iPod Touch at the same time. Does it damage the battery??

    Yes you can use and charge the iPod Touch at the same time.
    You can not use and Sync iPod Touch at same time though as Syncing will not allow you to use the touch till it is finished or you cancel the sync.
    If you do use it while charging just keep in mind as you use it you basically got a Charging/Discharging action occurring during this time. So it is best to let it charge as much as possible. Disconnect and use.
    But if you have immediate need to access something you are ok. If you got a Dock station that has speakers that work with touch. Some of these Dock stations will charge touch and allow you to listen to music at the same time.

  • Is it true? You can't use video iPod as a hard drive?

    I can't believe that Apple would reduce the functionality of a new product, but I have heard that due to the absence of firewire, you actually can't use the new video iPods as hard drives.
    Does anyone know if this is really true?
    Half the reason for buying the 60G is to be able to backup files that are too big for a DVD...

    I had reported in another thread that the long and short of it is that USB2 and Firewire 1394a are virtually the same, with differences. See this website for more info than you'll need. http://www.directron.com/firewirevsusb.html
    Bottom line is that there is little difference regarding speed.
    Hope this helps!

  • Can I use Iphone and Ipod at the same time?

    I use an Ipod now. If I bought an iPhone and sync it with my iTunes... will it no longer allow syncs with my regular iPod? Or can I have both my purchases on both devices?

    ok so it I can still use both, like movies (including rentals) on my video ipod, and my music on my iPhone. (storage is the reason for the two devices.)?
    Yes, but the Fifth Generation iPod cannot play rented movies; it only works with purchased ones out of those from the iTunes Store. The iPod classic, third generation iPod nano, iPhone, and iPod touch will play rented movies.

  • Can't add videos to ipod in OS10.8 but can in OS10.7

    I have my main startup drive loaded with OS 10.8 and my second internal drive with OS10.7. Everything works fine when I've started up from the second internal drive, but when I startup up with OS10.8, I can't load any videos into my ipod. Both drives have the same version of ITunes and Quicktime. Is this a known issue and is there a solution?

    Sorry, it was the end of a very long work day. The main startup drive is 10.4.8, the second internal drive is 10.4.7. I have repaired permissions and run diskwarrior on the main startup drive. It's the latest version of itunes on both drives (I double checked and ran software update on both drives). It's a brand new 80gig video ipod. I'm not on the system at the moment, but there are a bunch of problems when I use the main startup drive. The options to update and restore for the ipod are greyed out. There are no video folders in the ipod (but if I remember correctly, they are there when I start from the other drive). When I first tried running itunes with the new ipod I couldn't register the ipod. I was able to do that from the other drive. And everything seems fine when I startup from the secondary drive. When I've started up from the main drive, I can't drag videos from itunes into the ipod. It works perfectly when starting up from the other drive. The main drive is a clean install and OS and app update done about 6 weeks ago. The secondary drive was a cloned version of the startup drive (done before wiping and doing the clean install).
    Thanks for your help.
