Ipod will not accept purchased videos, but i have ipod 1.1.2 and itunes 7.0

Hi
I formatted my Ipod on windows several months ago. A week later, I bought a mac and have been using my ipod on mac ever since. Yesterday, I bought a video from the itunes store, and in order to play it, I tunes told me that i needed to update my I tunes from 6.0 to 7.0. So I did that...NOW, when I tried to copy the video to my ipod, I still could not copy to ipod.., I got a dialogue box telling me that my ipod software was too old and I needed to update it. my ipod software from 1.1 to 1.1.2. Luckily i had access to a windows computer. In the windows computer under ipod preferences, the ipod software read UP to Date after installing the 1.1.2 software. So now i bring back my ipod to my good old mac, and under Summary, ipod, my ipod version reads 1.1.2. and under Version, the update box is greyed out, and on the left side it reads ONLY MACINTOSH FORMATTED IPODS CAN BE UPDATED..
So i try to copy my purchased video from itunes music store, and I STILL GET A MESSAGE SAYING that "the item in the itunes music library was not copied to the ipod becaus you ipod softwar is too old!!!! go to the summary tab in ipod preferences and clikck update to get the latest ipod software update.
WHY>!??? I have the most updated version, and besides , i dont get an option to update software on my mac,,,,,but why would i need to in either case, if i have the latest software. Please help. I have spent my entire saturday troubleshooting this with no luck. I appreciate it. please.

When I updated to 1.1.2 my ipod software said it was up to date. I guess I did not see an option to update from ITunes 7.0., and no where on the apple site did i see a 1.2 version. (I guess thats what you meant when you say that they have done away with the ipod updater)
Does it make a difference that I update using a Windows computer using itunes 7.0 and then play my video on my mac. (I would guess that as long as the ipod software is 1.2 i'd be ok right?) This is where I am confused because right after updating to 1.1.2, i took my ipod and connected it to my mac and under ipod preferences, it did read 1.1.2
I am trying to avoid reformatting my ipod to mac since I have over 6,000 music tunes and videos which took me months to load.
thanks in advance for more help.

IPod will not play purchased videos...

My iPod only plays audio on videos that I have purchased on iTunes. Music Videos that I have made myself work fine and show up in the video section of the iPod. iTunes plays all videos fine, but the options for the videos I have purchased are the same as the audio options (they show no video icon on the main screen and I cannot set a video type). iTunes and iPod are updated and I have checked the "TV out" thing.
I don't know if this is relevant, but I recently had to restore my computer and the originals were wiped away, leaving only the copy on the iPod.
I appreciate any help ya'll can give me!

Answering my own question here, it was pretty easy.
I just took the videos off my iPod with EphPod and reloaded them back to my iPod. All the settings were reset and the purchased videos turned back to videos

Unsynced iPod will not accept new video without erasing old

I've been trying to add some TV episodes to my iPod but I keep receiving a message saying that other content will be erased if I add these videos because my iPod is synced with another computer. However, my iPod has always been manually managed and content has never been synced. I deauthorized the computer (which is no longer functional) that my iPod is supposedly synced with but I keep receiving the same message. I have not previously experienced this problem when adding video content from multiple computers.
What can I do to add these episodes without erasing other content?

Well...I found the following bit of info at the referenced Apple support doc:
Note: Even when manually managing, some content may only be available from one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPods.

Lightroom 4--4.1---4.2 will not accept .mpg video files

Lightroom 4, 4.1 and 4.2 will not accept .mpg video files. I have to Convert these files from .mpg to mp4 in order for any of the lightrooms 4--4.2 to accept the videos. Yet in the http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/video-support-lightroom-4-3.html it states : Extensions supported---MPG, so why do I have to convert all my video files to mp4??????

A particular file extension doesn’t dictate the actual video and audio codecs in a particular video file. I expect what is happening is that LR doesn’t understand one or both of the codecs and it needs the file converted one a set it does understand.
Did the videos work in LR3 but not LR4?
Can you play the original MPGs in QuickTime?

The dialogue box comes up as 'acrobatpro11_dlm wants to make changes. type your password to allow this change' and then the Name which enters automatically is 'APPLE' then it asks for my Password.
I have tried my apple password as well.

Bought the Iphone 6 2 days ago. My mac pro finds the phone on bluetooth but phone will not discover ANY bluetooth divices. Have hard reset the phone and restarted as well. nothing. Any suggestions or issues. This is the first apple phone I have owned. Am not very happy that Bluetooth would present a problem.

I can't help with the other devices but note that an iPhone will not pair via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7722
If you are attempting to use Handoff/Continuity, that does involve Bluetooth but the devices are NOT paired; Bluetooth just needs to be on and the devices in range of each other. The following may help with Handoff/Continuity issues: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5458

Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
To be clear, are you talking about accounts set up in Apple's Mail application?

MBP will not accept CD media, but plays DVDs fine...

My Macbook Pro 17" (late 2008) will not accept any type of CD media, but will accept DVDs and plays DVD movies fine.
Store-bought music CDs, CD-Rs & RWs I burned myself from iTunes, data CDs -- all simply eject shortly after insertion. I have tried using a laser lens cleaner (SkipDr, with cleaning brushes on the disc) but no luck.
I see I'm not alone. Posted this in another thread earlier this week, and many others having the same problem. We all started having this problem at roughly the same time... Late May or so.
Anyone have a clue what's up with this? Hoping for an OS patch or firmware fix, rather than a "buy a new drive" fix, natch!
Thank you. Any help appreciated!

Wow. Thanks for all your helpful, thoughtful and insightful replies! Lol.

The Place Holders in my Table of Contents will not accept a photo for the first few chapters. I have rebooted the computer and that didn't work. Can anyone help? I have worked so hard on getting everything done for this book and this is the last thing to do and I need help with it.

Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

"The iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." Any thoughts? Also, iPod will not turn or or charge (tried in my laptop, house computer and dock) I have all the lastest updates to my knowledge

"iPod software update server could not be contacted. The Server does not support this version of iTunes." iPod will not turn on or charge or reset settings. I tried plugging it in my laptop, house computer and docking station to charge and nothing. Also, I have all the latest software updates to my knowledge. This is a classic 8GB iPod, running of Windows 7. Any thoughts/suggestions?

only thing that seems to work so far is syncing without photos and also check here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206849?start=30&tstart=0

HT1386 my ipod will not accept a song I just purchased off itunes.... Please Help

please help me transfer a purchased song onto my Ipod.

Have you tried directly downloading it to the iPod by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

For about 2 weeks I have been unable to leave feedback on ebay. Firefox brings up login page but will not accept password. I am having the same problem with my yahoo email. It will not accept my passwords, so I have to use IE to login to these accounts.

On yahoo email, it accepted my login id, but not password. This started on one account about two weeks ago. Today when I tried to login to another yahoo email, which worked yesterday, but it would not accept my password on this account.
I bought some items on ebay and wanted to leave feedback. When I clicked on the leave feedback button a sign in window appeared, this should not have happened, when I tried to sign in, it would not accept my password. I called ebay and was told they have had many complaints from customers using firefox when trying to leave feedback. The help desk suggested I try with Internet Explorer, I did, and it worked perfectly.
I have been using firefox for a long time and really do not want to go back to IE, but when I cannot sign into my accounts, I can't, so I will have to use IE.
As far as I know, no new programs have been installed on this computer.

Apple TV 2 will not play purchased videos from an authorized computer

I have been trying all night to get purchased videos from an authorized computer play on my Apple TV 2. My computer is authorized and I have not reached my limit of authorized computers. I even went as far as to completly reset all the settings on my Apple TV; the music plays fine and it can list all my availible video content but as soon as I select a video of any kind it gives me the following error: Authorization is Required. You must authorize your computer with the account used to purchased the content. I am going crazy, I can access the same videos from my Home Sharing on my iPhone or from another computer using iTunes. I have tried deauthorizing the computer several times with no luck. Any suggestions?

also could be your HDMI cable......
from another thread.....so exactly what does your Apple TV say to you exactly, when it won't play the movies???
"If this is for the new ATV2, then the cable you use to connect to your TV must be HDCP capable. Some are. Some aren't. I bought a cheap one that was not and it didn't work. I bought a slightly more expensive one that was HDCP compliant and all is fine now.
From the ATV webpage:
Compatible with high-definition TVs with HDMI and capable of 720p 60/50Hz (see note 2)
Bottom of page.
Note 2: Requires HDCP when playing protected content.
