"Not authorized" to upload videos to 30GB iPod

I just switched my iPod from syncing with one G5 to another. I was able to upload most music but some songs (all purchased via iTunes) said that I am "not authorized to play these songs on this iPod." Then, none my tv shows/videos will upload because "these videos cannot be played on this iPod." I have the updated 1.2 firmware and iTunes 7.0. Why won't purchased music and video upload to my iPod?

Have you authorised your second computer to play your purchases, do the songs and videos play in iTunes? If you have then try deauthorising the computer and authorising it over again: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation

  • Problem with uploading video to my ipod nano 5g

    I tried to upload video on my iPod though itunes, but when i am doing it, itunes is not responding for a while and then shows an error: ""The iPod "iPod Artur" cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found". What should i do to upload video on my ipod?
    P.S. The video file is converted in mp4 format.

    I tried to do everything what was written in that link, but it didn't worked. Also i tried to connect my Ipod to my friends computer, and there everything was ok, so i suppose that problem is in my laptop, but not in Ipod. I have Acer Aspire 3680 laptop with Windows XP on it. Is it possible that my computer is to old to work with Ipod, or may be problem is in OS (my friends PC is running windows 7 OS). I tried to sync the podcast and pictures, and it didn't worked either. The only thing that i can sync is the music. I will be very thankful if you will help me to solve this problem!

  • HT1977 It says that my computer is not authorized to sync apps to my ipod. How do i authorize it?

    It says that my computer is not authorized to sync apps to my ipod. How do i authorize it?  It tells me "go to store>authorize my computer" But i cannot find this anywhere!

    Open iTunes and from the Menu Bar select Store...
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.

  • Imported files not authorized to upload to ipod???

    I had purchased some tunes online awhile back and had no problem with them. Then my hard drive crashed and I had to reinstall itunes. I imported the files to it and it says it won't allow them to be uploaded to my ipod as they are not authorized on my computer. I checked to make sure my computer is on the authorized list and it is. Why can't I get them transfered to my ipod and how can I fix it? New to ipod and so far not having much luck with it....
    Thanks

  • Itunes says my computer is not authorized to play videos

    I know this is a problem that Apple is aware of. I have tried several ways and I cannot get my iMac to play the videos I have purchased. I get an error message saying the computer is not authorized, but when I try to authorize it I get a message telling me it already is authorized. I think the only thing I haven't tried is going into the Terminal and following the instructions Apple gives, but I am not comfortable doing that as I know I can mess up the computer if I do it wrong. iTunes will play my music but not my TV shows.

    Hello calliesmom
    Try deleting the SC info folder in the article below and the Authorize your account again that way you are not doing anything in terminal that would make you feel uncomfortable

  • I cant upload videos in my ipod

    Ihave a 30gb Ipod, but when i open the preferences of my ipod in itunes to actualize it, the letters looks like transparent, so i cant mark an option.
    I would like someone to tell me wath can it be?

    Hi JCLDV,
    The problem you are having is that you currently have your iPod set to manually update, so the option to update your videos is grayed out because iTunes assumes you will be doing that yourself. If you want to put videos onto in this mode, simply drag them from the "Videos" section of iTunes.
    If you wish to "un-gray" the buttons, go to the "Music" tab (on the far left of the iPod options menu in iTunes) and click "Automatically update songs and playlists".
    Hope this helps.

  • My computer is "not authorized" to download TV show to iPod, but is in fact authorized and syncs everything else.

    I haven't purchased a TV show for a couple of iTunes updates and did so this morning. The episode plays on my Mac, but will noy sync to my iPod Touch. iTunes tells me the computer is not authorized. But the computer is authorized and syncs everything else.
    Anybody have suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Mattadolphus

    More users have reported this problem, but there does not seem to be an universal solution.
    Browse or search these discussions to find some hints.
    It works perfectly on my system (with iLife 5) and I have no problems with purchased music.
    As a workaround you could burn your purchased music on an Audio CD (not MP3 or data) and re-import them.
    Those re-imported tracks will play in QT and iDVD.
