Copy tv shows to ipod

Hi, can someone tell me if it's possible to copy tv shows directly to ipod from tv? If so, how do I do it and what will I see on the ipod. I tried connecting an av cable but nothing happened.
Thanks ever so much

Not possible. Record the show, convert it to mp4 or .mov format and upload it onto your iPod - that's as close as you'll get. Sorry.

Can't copy TV show to iPod

I bought a TV show from iTunes Store, but I can't transfer it to my iPod Classic. I get the message "The iPod ****'s IPOD is currently linked to another iTues library on the computer *****-PC. In order to copy the TV show ******** to this iPod, you must link this iPod to with this iTunes library. Doing this will remove 14 videos from this iPod."
As far as I can tell, I am linked to the library. I can copy music and podcasts without any problem. After this problem started I purchased a song and was able to copy that.
Any suggestions...?

FIgured it out: the file was in HD format and the iPod Classic cannot play HD files. Downloading the SD version now...

How to Copy a file from iPod Touch to iMac

I have used the native "Voice Recorder" app on an iPod Touch to record lectures. Generally, when the iPod is synced with the iMac, the files are copied from the iPod to the iMac and are located in "Voice Memos" on the iMac. I have two files that didn't copy to the iMac. They are still on the iPod. I have rebooted both machines several times and tried to sync afterward. The two files remain on the iPod, but aren't on the iMac. I would like to transfer the files to a thumb drive, but I cannot access them on the iPod in order to copy or move them.
From what I've read, there used to be a function in iTunes that was "enable disk use". Then you could view the memory of the iPod and move or copy files.
The iPod has iOS 5.1.1. It is a modelMC008LL. The iMac has OS X 10.7.3, 2.93 GHz Intel processor, 24" screen, and was produced in 2009.

I used iFunBox to access the files. I was not able to copy them to the "Voice Memos" directory on the iMac, but they copied fine to the Desktop on the iMac. That is puzzling to me.
Using iFunBox, I looked at a directory on the iPod called Raw File System. I was looking at voice memos. Several had five or more duplicates. The duplicates aren't visible on the iPod itself. I also found a Quick Time Movie file that I didn't recall. When I launched it, there was only sound. It was a voice memo that I had recorded five years ago. After recording it, I could not find it on the iPod. It appeared to be deleted and I had been careful to not delete it. I don't understand how it ended up as an .mov file as opposed to an .m4a file. The iFunBox app showed that file under the Raw File System and also under the Voice Memos directory.
I like the audio quality of the Voice Memo recordings, but its file handling is quirky.
Thank you for suggesting iFunBox. It allowed me to solve the problem of getting two files off of the iPod that I couldn't do in the normal way and I discovered and recovered a file that had been hidden for five years.

RealPlayer 16 video file conversion, copying from iTunes to iPod.

I recently upgraded to RealPlayer 16 and encountered some problems I had not experienced previously with copying converted files to my iPod. I found that by downloading them in RealPlayer format (.rv), and then selecting iTunes for PC as the output format, I was able to have RealPlayer copy them to my iTunes Library. When I chose iPod/iPhone as the format, the files contained only audio and a green or black screen. To copy them to the iPod, you do so my syncing and applying them to your device. I don't know if anyone else has experienced this particular situation, but if so, I hope this informaton will be helpful.

is there artwork for every song? like make sure they all have one, for EACH individual song, because mine didnt have all of them and it showed that it did, so i went through every song and made sure it had an artwork in the bottom left hand corner. it took a while, but im pretty sure thats the only way to do it. if this doesnt work, then i'm out of ideas...sorry

Some songs do not copy from iTunes to iPod

This is very frustrating. I have a 5th Generation 60gig iPod. There are about 20,300 songs in my library, none of them from the iTunes store. All legal, all owned by me and I have the CDs to prove it. When I update the iPod all but about 4 or 5 songs copy over. The frustrating thing is there's no way to find out which songs are not copying over to the iPod, so I can't tell if there's a problem with them or what. AppleCare tells me the only way to find out is to visually compare the list on the iPod with the list in iTunes. I have 20,000 songs here and allegedly one of the most powerful computers you can get and I have to compare two nearly identical lists visually?? Oh, by the way I'm running 10.4.6 and the latest version of iTunes and the latest iPod update. This never happened with my 4th Generation iPod. Any thoughts at all of what to do would certainly be appreciated.
Powerbook G4, iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Are you basing the few that don't get sent to your ipod on the file count? Could there be duplicates? I've noticed that there are some of my movies that don't get sent over but I usually get a warning that they aren't in a compatable format.
There is an option in either file or edit (can't remember exactly where, I'm at work) but you can filter to show all the duplicates. I've noticed that when I drag files over to be copied to my ipod and there are duplicates, it only does one.
After you find the culprits, another thing would be to export the file to your desktop. Delete it from iTunes then reimport it making sure of the file format.
just a thought

You need a third-party program to get non-iTunes purchased music off the iPod. Which have you tried? Th good ones cost like TouchCopy and PhoneView. Here are some others:

Can't copy all songs to ipod

Recently downloaded an album and tried copying it to my ipod and only half the songs copy? I've tried removing all songs and readding them and they still won't copy. In the itunes library under my ipod its saying they're all on there but when i use my ipod out of itunes they don't show up?

So you can sync apps and other media to the iPod?
Do you have the right boxes/items checked to sync?
Could you sync music from this iTunes library before?
What exactly happens when you try to sync?

How to I copy photos from my ipod classic back onto my pc?

How to I copy photos from my ipod classic back onto my pc? My hardrive recently crashed and the photos on my ipod are the only copies I have! The photos were synced onto th ipod originally - not saved or copied as file transfer.

See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device. I'm not sure which of the recovery tools can do photos offhand, but unless you chose the option to include full res. originals when you loaded the device then what they extract will be fairly low res. If you did opt for full res. then they should be visible on the iPod's drive when viewed in disk mode.

How can I copy songs from one iPod to another?

I received a new iPod Classic (last generation) and I'm trying to transfer my songs from my old iPod Nano (also last generation).
My iTunes library is also split up between my two parent's houses and I only have half the songs on my Nano in this computer's library.
Is there a way to copy only the songs on the +iPod Nano+ (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?

*Is there a way to copy only the songs on the iPod Nano (not the iTunes library) and drop them onto the new iPod?*
You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, you have to copy the songs back to iTunes and update the new iPod from there. If you have any iTunes Music Store purchases the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod to a computer
The transfer of content from other sources such as songs imported from CD is designed by default to be one way from iTunes to iPod. However there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well. Have a look at the web pages and documentation, this is just a small selection of what's available, they are generally quite straightforward.

You can't copy directly from one iPod to another, the songs have to be transferred to iTunes first and your second iPod is updated from there.

How do i copy music from one ipod to another with 1 cord?

how do i copy music from one ipod to another with 1 cord?

You cannot copy content directly from one iPod to another. If the music was purchased from the iTunes Store, you have the following options:
- sync the iPod to your computer, transfer the content to iTunes, and then connect the other iPod and sync from iTunes
- use iCloud (which requires iOS 5).
- download the music from from the iTunes Store to the second iPod. See:

Is there a way of copying music from the ipod

my pc got wiped so i need a way of copying music from my ipod to itunes is there a way?

Connect your iPod to your computer. If it is set to update automatically you'll get a message that it is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it. Also when using most of the utilities listed below your iPod needs to be enabled for disc use, changing to manual update will do this by default. Check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button: Managing content manually on iPod
Once you are safely connected there are a few things you can do to restore your iTunes from the iPod.

Whichever of these retrieval methods you choose, keep your iPod in manual mode until you have reloaded your iTunes and you are happy with your playlists etc then it will be safe to return it auto-sync. I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay.
