Hi MandyD. They need to be converted to a format the iPod understands. The easiest way (but not the best quality) is to use iTunes to convert them. Make sure you have the most recent version of iTunes which is currently 6.02.
Select your file in the library, right click on it and select 'Convert Selection for iPod'.
There are better programs that will convert video for iPod with better quality results. If you need to know what they are, just do a quick search of the forum and you'll get a gizillion hits.
Hope this helps.

  • My podcast wont download to IPOD

    My podcast are gone after upgrading. Same thing happened to my music but I was able to find the fix to restore. Now I'm re-subscribing but the podcast wont download to my IPOD. Has anyone else had this issue

    I had the same problem and just figured it out today. The new podcast I subscribed to wasn't syncing to my iPod even though all episodes were checked in the Podcasts section of Library. All my other podcasts were syncing without a problem. When I connected my iPod to my laptop I selected the iPod under "Devices" and then selected the Podcasts tab at the top. There I noticed the new podcast had been added by default with the checkbox empty. Once I checked the box it synced to my iPod.

  • Videos wont download to ipod

    HI I have downloaded some TV shows from Itunes and when I go to sync them to my iPod I get an error message saying the item can't be downloaded because the item can't be played in this iPod. I am not sure what is wrong. I have an Ipod Nano 4gb i think it is 2nd gen or maybe even 3rd. Please help

    Read this article related to your issue.  You may be trying to sync the High Definition (HD) version of the TV Show to your device.  The iPod classic does not support HD content. You'll want to download the SD version instead.
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available.  You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

  • Videos from itune wont download on ipod

    Hi,
    I bought a video called "high school Musical" for my ipod. I also bought other music videos.
    I have put music videos on my ipod but recently I let my brother use my ipod and when I got it back I restored it. I have never downloaded a movie on it before but I have donwloaded music videos but now neither will work.

    First click on store at the top of itunes and then authorize computer. This makes sure that you computer is authorized to play and transfer what was purchased from the itunes store.
    Then connect the ipod and choose the movies tab to the right at the top of the summary page and set the preferences to how you want to load them onto the ipod.
    Here is a link from the apple website that will help you out.

  • HT201272 music wont download into iTunes

    My songs stored in icloud are appearing in itunes, but i can't get them to download onto my computer when I click the on the "download from the cloud" icon.  Any suggestions?
    I deauthorized all computers and then reauthorized the one I'm trying to get them to download to. 
    Thanks,

    I've been having exactly the same problems...both iTunes and iPod freeze in the middle of updating: I've done numerous restores of iPod, and have the latest iTunes and iPod software.
    Because it's out of warranty, the online repair service calculate a repair at 260 euros (a lot of money in anyone's currency).
    Is this time to get a new iPod, or is there something else to be done, that I haven't tried?

  • Songs in libary wont go into ipod

    How do i manually add the songs into my ipod? The songs are stuck in my libary. When i try to update my ipod, the songs don't go in.

    Hi piebear
    If you are using the manual update - which is the case, I guess -, you'll need do drag/drop the tracks from the library onto the little iPod symbol in the source list.
    Or switch the iPod to update automatically.

  • OK, have 7th Generation IPOD. Have downloa latest version, downloaded about 23 CD's .. all into my PV, but cannot figure out how to het things to download into IPOD. HELP, please?

    I have a 7th generation IPOD, I have downloaded APPLE ISTORE software and have downloaded 23 of my CD's. All of this is being done thru a Windows desk top. I can not get it to download automatically the CD's to my IPOD. Please advise

    Connect your iPod and in iTunes click on the name of your device which should appear in a tab towards the top right of the screen. In the tabs that appear click on music, pick what you want to sync, then click apply.

  • Audio Wont Download into iMovie HD? HELP!

    I was trying to upload a video into my macbook and the unit came up in my desktop and I clicked on it,
    and I tried to like drag it into imovie 08 but that didnt work. but I heard that imovie is suppose to pickup a camera when it is connected to a usb cable but i didnt pick up my Kodak Easy Share at all. So I tried the next thing in trying to drag it into imovie HD, and that worked. But when it was done downloading in imovie hd, i played the video and no audio came out! just the video!!!! Please HELP ME!
    My camera again is a Kodak Easy Share thanks

    So what you have is a still camera that also shoots video, right? It probably stores it on an SD card in a format like MPEG1.
    You will need to get MPEGStreamclip (free, Google it) and convert those video files to either MPEG4 or DV. Then those reformatted clips can be dragged into iMovie and the audio should still be there.

  • TS1420 songs i buy on itunes from my ipod wont download and it says "retry" or "done"

    i bought albums on my ipod touch and some wont download all the way or it wont even start to download??? what can i do??

    I accidentially fixed the problem by connecting the ipod to a USB port and then it went directly into itunes on its own. After that my sound came back. I didn't go into itunes first through my computer icon but let the ipod connect itself which solved my problem.

    My 8gig 4th generation Ipod wont download Icloud , whats the problem?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
