Convert Windows Media Player to something that will work on the IPOD

I just bought my I-Pod today, and I don't know what type of video will play on it. I was trying to upload some window media player files, but no luck. How do I get my Windows Media Player files to work on my I-Pod. Oh, yes, my computer is a Mac. I'm on OS X 3-9.
Thank you for your help!

Hi All, Thanks so much for responding to my question...not a powerpoint -- so forget that. I have tried all of your suggestions. First, the h264 route: creates a file that is something on the order of 3X the size of the .mov (which was too big to begin with). Took forever -- became such a size that I couldn't get it onto a flash drive (11gb became 30+gb).
Now, if necessary, I'll take my machine to theirs and make a transfer via ethernet -- but that doesn't account for backup copies....
Second, I made an MPEG2 version and stored it on DVDs. They would not play on the PC either. This is the way I have delivered to non-broadcast clients for years and has always worked. I use the DVD MPEG2 Best Quality 90 minutes and AAC audio settings.
I looked at the flip4mac site and of course, the version I need is the most expensive. There must be some alternative to spending $180 to convert these files.
Again I thank you for your suggestions and taking the time to respond to my query.

DVD DOES NOT PLAY - WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER OR VLC PLAYER

I have Windows 8 64-bit OS with latest updates. I tried to play a Zumba fitness DVD, however, it does not play in Windows Media Player or VLC player. I receive an error, Unknown Disk. Other DVDs do play.
I tried to play the DVD in Linux (Videos) and I also received an error, however, I could easily resolve the problem here as it was determined that the disk is protected and I downloaded the fix for Linux.
How do I resolve the problem in Windows?
Kind regards.

Hello,
I found a solution here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-pictures/cant-play-copy-protected-dvds-anymore/44c8f028-212f-4ef4-900f-984e763e1c00
I posted the information here:
This is could be due to the DRM (Digital Rights Management). Let’s try these steps and check if it helps.
Rename the DRM folder:
Step 1:
a. Start Windows Explorer. To do this, press Windows key + E from desktop.
b. Click on View and place a check mark on Hidden items.
Step 2:
Locate the DRM folder on the computer. Typically, the DRM folder is located in the following location.
a. C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM (where C:\ is the system drive).
b. If you are not able to rename the DRM folder because of Access Denied error, you will have to take permission of the folder.
Refer to this section "Issue 2: I'm unable to access, edit, save, or delete files and folders" from this link to give proper permission to the folder.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2623670/en-us
Steps 3:
Reset the DRM security component.
To do this, visit the following Microsoft Web site, and then follow the steps to upgrade the DRM security component:

I have a problem - the program QuickTime player longer open files - gororit that codec for the opening of the program at all of the files that I opened have the extension avi. tried to remove a program, it is impossible.I tried to load the program from Apple, reinstalled. but I was wrong still going on! what to do?

before using for all entries in, u need to check whether the driver internal table is empty, if it is empty, u should not enter into select statement.
if u wont use this check means, when the driver internal table is empty, the second select will take all the entires from the tables.
SELECT AEBELN ALIFNR AKNUMV BVGABE BEBELP BGJAHR B~BELNR
        FROM EKKO AS A
        INNER JOIN EKBE AS B ON BEBELN = AEBELN
        INTO CORRESPONDING
        FIELDS OF TABLE ITAB WHERE B~VGABE = '2'.
if itab[] is not initial.
   SELECT EKPOEBELN EKPOMATNR EKPOTXZ01 EKPOWERKS EKPO~NETWR
          EKPOMENGE EKPOMWSKZ
      FROM EKPO
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE ITAB1
      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN ITAB
      WHERE EBELN = ITAB-EBELN.
endif.
I hope this will help u.

The window shrinks down and when you expand it the writing isn't there it only shows the small part that does open. Most of the games can't be played this way!

When you click to play the game, the window shrinks down and when you expand it the writing isn't there it only shows the small part that does open. Most of the games can't be played this way, you can't read the chat or access most of the buttons!!! It is just the newest version of Firefox because it works fine on my other computer that hasn't been updated and it also works fine in IE.

The version of “Adobe Flash Player” on your system does not include the latest security updates and has been blocked. To continue using “Adobe Flash Player”, download an updated version from Adobe’s website.

You haven't actually asked a question, but as stated you should only download Flash Player directy from Adobe.
Nor have you said what version of OS X and Safari you are running.
You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. Note that version 10,1,102,64 is the last version available to PPC Mac users*. The latest version,10.3 or later, is for Intel Macs only, as Adobe no longer support the PPC platform. Version 11.0.1.152 is for Lion.
* Unhelpfully, if you want the last version for PPC Macs, you need to go here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html and scroll down to 'Archived Versions/Older Archives'. Flash Player 10.1.102.64 is the one you download. More information here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/838/cpsid_83808.html
You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

When restarting firefox after a crash, how do I stop it from re-opening all web pages that were open at the time of the crash?

When firefox crashes, or if it hangs and I have to kill it, then when I go to restart it, it tries to re-open all pages that were open at the time it crashed or was killed. This is incredibly annoying, especially if one of the visited pages caused the crash or hang. It is also really annoying if some of the web pages happened to require passwords to log in, from multiple sites. In my case this occurs as I am frequently logged into multiple online educational web sites like ucsc-extension.edu and berkleemusic.com. In the login case you get multiple login prompt pop-ups with no way to correlate which pop-up goes with which web page. If there are a lot of them then it's a hopeless mess. This behavior is something that I never ever want and it infuriates me that not only is it the default behavior, it is something that there seems to be no way to turn off, at least via the configuration menus. Am I wrong? Is there a way to turn this off? If not can somebody either make it configurable or get rid if this fantastically idiotic behavior?
I suspect there's a command line option for this but on my Mac (or most systems these days) it's sort of "unnatural" to be starting programs like browsers by means other than a provided program start-up icon, which gives you no choice about the command line options.
Besides, as a default behavior the current behavior is something I cannot conceive of ever wanting. I would rather have a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== firefox crashed

You can try this.
In the address bar type about:config you will be warned that this is dangerous.
Search for browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash
Double click on true to toggle it to false.
Exit the page.
Firefox will now NOT try to reload websites after a crash.

- Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.

Hi ,
There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

Might be a Safari extension...
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab.
If there are any extensions installed, turn that OFF, then quit and relaunch Safari to test.
