How do I convert purchased music videos and television shows into my Itunes liabrary and sync it onto my ipod?

I recently purchased a music video and a television show episode off of Itunes. It was in my liabrary until I plugged in my Ipod nano 4th generation for it to sync. As my ipod is syncing the music video and tv show episode were'nt in my liabrary and they didn't sync onto my ipod. Yet when I log into my itunes store account the purchsed content is there. How do I get the music video and tv episode into my itunes library and onto my ipod?

My guess (and it is just a guess) is that what you are trying to do is no different than recording a TV programme to a VCR then watching it at a time of your convenience, probably the main reason why people have purchased VCRs, PVRs and the like.
However, with commercially produced DVDs, there is an encryption built in to prevent copying, and it the discussion of how to overcome this encryption that Apple will not permit on their forums.

  • Itunes freezes when I try to play music video or tv show - bought on Itunes

    Hi everyone,
    I've been using iTunes since Christmas and it has been working smoothly enough until today.
    Today I've had my PC upgraded. I don't know much about computers but apparently there's twice as much space as there used to be and better graphics. I tried testing this by playing a tv show from on iTunes but it didn't work. Whether it's a music video or tv show, anything that requires 'watching' the screen goes black and flickers back and forth between the black screen and a frozen iTunes as if the video is about to play.
    Can anyone let me know how to fix this? Has it something to do with the upgrade?
    Let me know if I need to provide anymore info.
    Many thanks,
    YIB

    Any iTunes content that is downloaded by your iPhone including 3rd party apps should be transferred to your iTunes library on your computer the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes on your computer after doing so. All iTunes content on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer.

  • How do I take a MP4 video and get it to my iPod?

    I have a MPEG4 video and I don't know how to get it onto my fifth generation iPod
    help please?

    If you've got the latest (I mean LATEST) version of iTunes, it will require only .m4a files. Click on your .mp4 video file, right click (if your on windows) and click on 'convert selection for iPod'. Takes a while but it works!! Good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!

    For content not purchased in iTunes, you need third-party software, like this:

    I downloaded the new version of iTunes, and now, I cannot get into the iTunes Store. 

    many thanks.
    I am in my iTunes application and when I press the link to connect to the iTunes Store, it starts churning, and churning, but never connects. It has churned for hours and when I finally click the "X" to close it, I get error code 11222.
    I'd try the following document:

  • How do I get a quicktime video clips to go into my itunes?

    Hi I have the latest version of itunes and quicktime ( Version 7.1.3) but I can't get itunes to play my quicktime video clips. I've tried dragging and importing them in but nothing happens. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi thanks for the help. But I was hoping that I wouldn't have to download or have to convert video files. I have a quicktime video in my itunes now but it was a while back when I added that I can't remember how too. Is there a easy way to do it or will I need to convert the Avi.files to something else? Thanks again for the help!

  • I would like to know how to put my .mp4 music videos into the .....

    Hello
    I finally learned how to turn my music videos into a format that will play on my ipod and I am excited as **** about the whole thing. My one problem is I can't seem to put the music videos into the music video section. I would like to put my music videos in the music video section and I plan on making some of my favorite movies into .mp4 and keep them in the movies section. I would also like to know if I can have different folders for my movies? probably not eh? I guess they might just have to be in one big pile. That's ok I guess. So what's with the music video section? It would be nice to put them there. I guess while I am waiting for a response I am just going to convert the music videos and put them in the movies section..
    Also I would like to share what program I am using to convert the files .. it's called
    " WinAVI iPod/PSP/3GP/MP4 Video Converter "
    And it works great! Someone on my Facebook account told me about it. I tried to ask people here what I should use but I don't think I got a straight answer ( either that or I am mildly ******** or something )
    One more question. How to I put my pictures into separate folders on my ipod?
    Aaron

    Hi everyone !
    please forget about the pictures question because I figured that out ok !!
    I just need to know if it is possible to put my .mp4 music videos in the music video section of iTunes and my iPod. Like I said I want to just put full length movies in the movie section. And I would like to have my movies in maybe separate folders like I said. One for Anime, One for Animation ect ect ..
    ALSO I am wondering can I make my Windows Media Player Classic the default for .mp4 files? I tried to do that but it was giving me some weird error message
    when I try and make it the default for .mp4 I get this message
    " Windows Media Player Classic does not have enough privileges to change file formats. Please click on " Modify " button To Get Administrator rights. "
    Does this mean that only Apple programs should be used to view these files?

  • Videora-Music Video and Movies

    I'm frustrated!!!
    I downloaded and converted several music videos and movies on Videora Converter and now I don't know how to transfer them to my Ipod... I've tried to upload them from Ipod and that didn't work either. Please help...

    Just use iTunes to import them. Load up iTunes and click on "File", then scroll down to "Import". Browse to where your movie file is and click on it to import it. After this, you will need to resync your iPod in order to get the movie onto it.

  • My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.

  • How can I convert Music Videos or Movies to play in iTunes ?

    I am running Windows 7 Professional and I have alot of Music Videos and Movies that I am wanting to play in the new iTunes ( 11.1.5.5 ).
