Can't see videos on ipod nano - why did it let me purchase if its not compatible? 7th generation

New 7th generation ipod nano. Purchased some videos on itunes, but can't play them on ipod - says it's uncompatible. First ipod - why did it let me purchase them if I can't play them on my device?

If the iPod is set to auto transfer, then the songs on your iPod would be removed if you were deleting them from the iTunes library after putting them on the iPod.
If you have the iPod set to manual transfer of songs, the songs already on your iPod should not be removed each time you add new ones (even if you were to delete them from iTunes afterwards.
The directions in the manual don't match the summary screen if you are using the latest iTunes version 7.0.1.
If there's no particular reason you want to transfer songs manually, then try the auto method again and post back if you encounter problems.

Can't see brand new iPod Nano in Windows!!!

I just bought a brand new iPod Nano (2nd Gen) for my daughter for Christmas, and right out of the box it would not be recognized by Windows XP or iTunes -- even though another iPod Nano (1st Gen) that we own did connect. It was charging though.
I used this forum looking for answers and although helpful, there was an awful lot of misleading advice. I finally called the help line 1-800-275-2273 on this website http://www.apple.com/support/contact/
What I was told was to simply go through the reset process (which I had ignored because it seemed too simple). The steps are to flip the hold button a couple of times and then hold the menu and select (center) button down at the same time for 10 seconds. The iPod will power back up and be reset.
What this tells me is that Apple has a problem with the software originally loaded on these iPods, but at least this simple procedure solved the problem. I thought I would come back here and provide you with the solution to this problem -- hopefully saving you a lot of time! Good luck!!

I agree with you, Apple to me has some type of problem with their iPods. I've used some type of computer device since 1971, and in all this time, I have never used a device such as the iPod with so many quirks.
I tell you one thing the iPod makes you think!!! O;-D
I'm afraid to buy Apple Care because during the 1st year of owning an iPod you get support that really is not much help. Within the 1st year of owning an iPod, a customer can purchase the Apple Care Plan. The Apple Care Plan is only 2 years, and then you are on your own. If Apple had confidence in their iPod's, they would offer a longer warranty period.
The only thing I see Apple Care is good for is that if something catastrophic happen, they will pay for shipping and any parts that are needed to fix it.
Their stock is doing great. Where is the money going???

Can't see video on ipod after downloading

I downloaded a few videos from Music Store and plugged the ipod in and they automatically transferred to ipod. When i play on the ipod, i only get the audio, no video. Any ideas?

I'm hearing alot of Windows users with this glitch. ( If it indeed is a glitch.) My recomendation would be to get a Mac. Everything works better on a Mac, including your new iPod. Trust me on this one.
If youre not ready for that, give AppleCrae a call. They are really good at trouble shooting issues with customers. I'm sure they could help you out AND they could sell you that new iMac G5 or iMac Intel Duo. (wink, wink, nudge nudge;)

HELP!!!! Ipod nano synced with itunes but all purchased music do not play

HELP, PLEASE HELP!!!
I have two iPod nano's and both have the same issue. I can sync all of my music, single song whatever I like without any problems, however any music which I have purchased from Itures just skips on the nano when played back?
I have done all of the other hints listed, including De-authorizing the PC, reset nano, restored the nano, exported libary/imported libary... you name it... still the misic I've paid for does not work
I have just upgrade to iTunes 7, which all reports everything to be at the latest versions but still nothing works!
Maybe a Sony or other MP3 player would have been the beter optoin for my kids at christmas after all!
Please help!!

The ipod is not a backup device. the music sync is one way - computer to ipod. The only exception is itunes purchases.
You need to copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

Can you play videos on ipod nano??

i bought a rob thomas video from itunes thinking it would play on it. did i just waste $1.99??

Your $1.99 isn't wasted if you watch it full screen in iTunes.
Your $1.99 isn't wasted if you spend $299 on the VIDEO iPod.
The nano does not do video. There is no room for a video chip - that's how Apple keep it so small.

I can no longer sync my iPod Nano.

After installing the latest iTunes update, I can no longer sync my iPod Nano. Windows 7 says that there is no driver installed, whereas there was prior to the update. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit OS and the new iTunes version is 10.5.3.3. Thanks for your help.

My iphone4 and my ipad mini were synced to my computer, but now I don't seem to be able to see all of my content nor my photo stream. I did see everything there several weeks ago, so I know it worked. How do I access those from my computer. I can't find how to sign on.

What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone.

Thoroughly angry and frustrated. I've run out of room and need to make more to add more songs. Once and for all, how do I, if I even CAN, delete music from my iPod Nano WITHOUT losing them from iTunes?

You should take the time to familiarize yourself with the documentation that is available. You can "uncheck" a song in iTunes, and then do a manual update.

Can't see video one the web, YouTube works fine.

HI,
Using Safari I can't see video, In CNN I get the message that Apple restrict the use of Flash Player, but in other sites, which do not use Flash player I can't see the video as well, for example- http://harim.tv/default.asp?categoryid=0&videoid=317&srchq=&page=1 . The same problem in different pages having video attached, in the window of the video there is a cube shape.
Is there an add-on to Safari that has to be installed to make it working?
I would like to add, YouTube is working fine.
Thanks in advance
Eli

Can't see video from youtube

I can't see video from youtube when the video is embedded in a page.
I am using Safari (italian version) 6.0.2 (8536.26.17).
When I click on the arrow, the system show me the following error message: "Unbale to load the video".
With Firefox that's all OK.
Please, help me to solve the problem.

I was having the same problem, and I tried this and it worked. (Thanks!) Now the next logical question is, what am I going to be missing out on by not having this plug-in installed anymore?
