Expired movie rentals not deleted from my iPod Touch
I have rented 3 movies during the last month. Transferred from iTunes to my iPod Touch to watch on my TV. After 24 hours of watching these movies, they expired. However, they are still there in my iPod, inaccessible but still there. When I turn on my iPod I can see them in my list of rentals for about one second, then they disappear from view. Also, when my iPod is connected to my Mac, in iTunes, under Devices > iPod, there is an entry for "rented movies" and the three movies are there, but all grayed out so I cannot delete them. Even if I cannot delete them from my iPod, I think they are taking up space, because the space occupied by Videos is much more than what I really have. How do I delete these expired rented movies from my iPod? I know they are supposed to be deleted automatically after expired, but not in my case. However, previous movie rentals have been deleted normally, this just started happening last month.
I got a reply in another thread which solved the problem on my iPhone 3G. Here is the advice that worked for me:

click on the iphone icon in the left panel and go to summary, check manually manage movies and music, click the drop down arrow to the left of the iphone icon, click "Rented Movies"....delete the unwanted movies.

I changed my email on my computer for my itunes and icloud. It made me manually change it on my ipod even after I synced. It won't change my email for my icloud and I have to delete it manually. "If you delete your account, all documents and Photo Stream photos stored in Icloud will be deleted from this iPod touch" comes up. Will I lose all my data stored on my iPod?
You will only lose your iCloud data, That includes iCloud backup, iCloud Contacts and Calendar, Reminders, Notes, everything listed in Settings>iCloud

Can I move playlists (not tunes) from an iPod to iTunes on a PC?
Had to wipe our computer. Our iTunes were saved to an external drive but the playlists seem to be gone--can I move them from iPods and iPad into the re-downloaded iTunes?
Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

Able to view Movies, but not TV shows on iPod Touch
The summary basically says it all, but I had a series of videos that I have synced successfully. Some were set to "Movies", and some were set to "TV Shows". I'm able to view the movies when I touch "Videos" at the bottom of the home screen, but I can't see the TV shows on that list.
This may be a really stupid question with an easy answer, but I can't figure it out.
PLEASE HELP! :SSo once you transfer the files there is nothing in the video folder after the sync. This could be a encoding issue. I use TV shows from my Tivo using Tivo to Go and they are tagged as TV shows and show up after a sync with the iPod.
Look into your encoder and the metta data set for the video files. -
