Pac Man on Ipod using windows

Pac Man shows up in my library but not on my Ipod. I have synced my ipod many times does any one know how I can get it on my Ipod?

First of all, I'm just going to point out the obvious fact, that you need a 5th Gen (ie. video) iPod, with 1.2 firmware or later, in order to put games on it.
So assuming you have a 5th gen with 1.2 or later, then you need to select the iPod under Devices, and then click the "Games" tab at the top of your screen, in order to sync the game to your iPod.

    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    Note: This article is for Windows users. If you have a Mac, we have a separate article for you if your iPod doesn't appear in iTunes or on the Mac desktop.
    Can't see your iPod in iTunes or Windows Explorer? Remember these five basic suggestions when you run into a problem with your iPod. If one of the following doesn’t help, read on for solutions to specific problems.
    Tip: Check Device Manager first (right-click on My Computer, choose Manage, and then select Device Manager). If no devices appear in the Windows Device Manager, go here.
    Before starting, make sure your iPod is fully charged and then toggle the Hold switch on and off.
    Reset your iPod.
    Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall , Restore
    Reset your iPod.
    Retry with a different USB port.
    Restart your computer and make sure you have the latest software updates installed.
    Remove iTunes software and then reinstall iPod and iTunes software from latest versions on the web.
    Restore your iPod. See “Updating and Restoring iPod Software” in the user's guide.
    Still can't see your iPod?
    Several things could keep iPod from appearing in iTunes or Windows Explorer. The most likely causes are listed below—you'll find information for both USB and FireWire (IEEE 1394) iPod connections. Check each one starting from the top of the list to see if that is what's keeping iPod from appearing.
    iPod appears in Windows Explorer but not in iTunes or iPod Updater
    If your iPod shows up in My Computer, but iTunes and iPod Updater don't recognize it, there may be a software conflict, or iPod Service didn't load. You may see an "iPod Service Error" alert or a "Please Reinstall iTunes" message.
    If you see either of these messages, try the solutions in this article to resolve the issue.
    Laptop or portable connecting via USB?
    See iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB for more information.
    Your computer doesn't meet iPod system requirements
    Make sure that your computer meets the system requirements to use iPod for Windows.
    Your iPod displays an exclamation point folder or sad iPod icon, or doesn't appear in iTunes or My Computer
    If your iPod displays a folder with an exclamation point icon or a sad (unhappy) iPod icon on its screen, or if your iPod doesn't appear in iTunes or My Computer, follow these instructions to resolve the issue.
    Your iPod isn't formatted for Windows
    iPod for Windows Software only recognizes iPod for Windows. You cannot use iPod for Macintosh with a Windows PC. To see which platform your iPod is formatted for, follow these instructions.
    Your iPod isn't connected to a high-power USB port
    If you're connecting an iPod, iPod mini, or iPod shuffle to your Windows computer, make sure that you're connecting it to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer (not a low-power one such as the USB port on your keyboard or bus-powered USB hub).
    Typically, USB 2.0 high-power ports are located directly on your computer. Try connecting your iPod to another USB port on the computer (or to a self-powered USB 2.0 hub that's connected to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer) if the computer still doesn't recognize your iPod. Alternatively, if your computer has a FireWire connection, try using that instead.
    If you're connecting an iPod, iPod mini, or iPod shuffle to a Windows laptop computer through USB, connect the laptop to a power outlet before connecting your iPod.
    You're not using a WHQL-certified IEEE 1394 card
    If you have a FireWire (IEEE 1394) card installed in your computer and are using it to connect your iPod, make sure that the card is Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL) certified. If it isn't, your iPod may not be recognized, or you may not be able to send music to the iPod.
    If you're not sure about your card's WHQL certification, check the inbox material that came with your FireWire card or contact the card's manufacturer. You can view a list of WHQL-certified cards on the Windows Hardware Compatibility List website. To view this:
    Go to the Windows Hardware Compatibility List website.
    Enter All Products in the "Search for" field.
    From the Product Categories pop-up menu, choose 1394 Controller.
    Click the Search Now button.
    Note: Windows XP information is not listed on the initial search screen, but is listed when you click on an individual card.
    You can also check the list of recommended FireWire and USB cards that have been tested by Apple with iPod and Windows XP. (Apple sells FireWire cards that are compatible with iPod at the Apple Store.)
    To rule out an issue with your FireWire card, try connecting a different FireWire device to the card to see if your computer recognizes it.
    Your connections aren't secure
    Make sure that there is nothing in or blocking your computer's USB (or FireWire) port, and that the cable connections to your iPod and computer are secure.
    Your iPod cable is faulty
    Make sure that you are using the cable that came with your iPod. Some third-party cables may not work properly with iPod.
    Make sure that nothing is in or blocking your computer's USB or FireWire port.
    Check the connections to make sure that the cable is completely plugged in.
    Try another known-good FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    If swapping out your old cable for another resolves the issue, then your original cable should be replaced.
    Your iPod isn't charged or getting power
    Your iPod must have enough of a charge for your computer to recognize it. Connect your iPod to its power adapter or to a high-power port on your computer to charge your iPod if the battery is depleted. If you have an iPod nano, click here for more information. If your iPod is connected through FireWire but isn't getting power from the FireWire bus, your computer may not recognize it.
    Your computer's port may be faulty
    If another FireWire or USB port is available on your computer, try connecting your iPod to it. If you are using FireWire and have a USB cable to connect to the iPod, try using USB instead. If you are using USB and have a FireWire port and cable to connect to the iPod, try using FireWire instead.
    If your computer recognizes your iPod after trying a different port, the original port could be faulty.
    Note: iPod will not automatically wake up if you connect it to a 4-pin FireWire port. You must press the Select button (the wheel's center button) on the iPod to wake it from sleep.
    There's a conflict in the FireWire chain
    Your computer may not recognize your iPod if there's a device conflict in the FireWire chain. To see if this is the case:
    Disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire ports.
    Connect your iPod to your computer's FireWire port.
    If your computer recognizes your iPod, you should troubleshoot for FireWire device conflicts.
    Your computer needs to be restarted
    Sometimes simply restarting your computer can resolve issues.
    Your FireWire card isn't recognized by Windows
    Make sure that Windows recognizes your FireWire card. Follow these steps to find out if Windows sees your card.
    Third-party software may be causing conflicts
    Some third-party software (such as security software) may prevent your computer from recognizing your iPod. Try adjusting the settings of such software, or temporarily disabling it, to see if that resolves the issue.
    Your iPod hard disk's format is damaged or was altered
    If you reformatted the hard disk on your iPod, or if something has damaged or altered the disk's format, iTunes or My Computer may not recognize iPod. To resolve this issue, you may need to restore iPod.
    Warning: The restore process will delete all of your songs and files on the iPod. This process cannot be undone. Always make a backup of your important data before restoring your iPod.
    iPod Software needs to be installed (or reinstalled)
    Make sure that you install the iPod for Windows Software from the iPod for Windows CD that came with your iPod. The iPod Watcher should appear in the system tray. If you don't see it, you will need to reinstall the iPod for Windows Software.
    There may be an issue with your computer
    If another computer is available, verify that the same issues happen with the other computer. If the other computer recognizes your iPod, you may want to troubleshoot for issues with your original computer.
    Your iPod needs service
    If after following these steps your computer still doesn't recognize iPod, see the iPod Service website to arrange for service.

  • Updating an iPOD using Windows format

    I just tried to update both my step-daughter's & wife's iPODs and it tells me that they can't be updated because they both use windows format. They were first used on other computers, which are both Microsoft, so I'm assuming this is the reason its a windows format.
    There is an option to reset the iPOD to its original setting, would this make them an apple or MAC format? If so, would all the info be lost. I'm asking this because I we want the updated software for the iPODs.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    If you want to reformat the iPods for Mac you need to restore them on your Mac. Restoring will erase and reformat the iPod's hard drive, reload the software with the Mac version and put it back to default settings, so if you have songs on your iPod that aren't on iTunes you will lose them if you have no back up. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes

  • How do you put homemade videos on an iPod using Windows???

    I'm so annoyed. I spent my only phone support call to Apple trying to figure out how to get a home made video clip onto my Video iPod and they have no idea unless you are a Mac user. I have successfully put DVDs on the iPod using DVD Decrypter and Nero Recode but if you want to export a small clip, from Adobe Preimere for example, it seems impossible. Can anyone help???? I have exported a clip from Premiere and it says it's a Quicktime file but when I open the file in Quicktime Pro and "export to iPod" it will be rejected after dragging it to the iPod Library. There are programs to help you complete this task if you are a Mac user but I can't find any solution for PC. Any suggestions? I just want to be able to take a segment of video I made on a minidv camcorder and put it on the iPod. I know how to capture and edit it using Premiere but how do I save/export the clip in a file format that Quicktime and/or the iPod will recognize?

    There are many options that work great for windows users. I personnaly use "Video Vault for the IPOD". My home movies where captured to the hard drive as MPEG 2. The above software will accept just about any file (DVIx, XVId AVI, DV, MPEG 1/2, WMV, Realplayer etc.) and format and convert for you. I have over 280 video files currently on my IPOD. The software is not freeware, but you get a good product for your money. It will automatically transfer the file when complete to your IPOD. Music videos take about 1 minute to convert from WMV format. TV shows in MPEG 2 format take about 6 minutes and a 2 hour movie takes about 48 minutes. It has a very fast encoder and keeps your audio and video streams in perfect snyc. Use Google and you can download a trial to try it out. It is really easy to convert videos to your IPOD. You just need the right software. I see so many MAC users stating that us "Windows" users have so few options other than "Videora". While MAc's have some very good software programs, so do we, you just need to find the right one. Good luck and stay positive. Don't hesitate if you need more help to post back.

  • Trying to sync ipod using windows media

    I have recently bought a new ipod nano and when i first plugged it in, it automatically added my songs from my windows media. After creating my itunes account, i cannot seem to retrieve any songs from my windows media. It worked the first time, but any new songs added to my media will not Sync. Any help would be appreciated.

    I made a similar mistake when I bought my first iPod. I begrudgingly resigned myself to the fact that any and all synchronization with my iPod MUST be done with iTunes if I wanted to get the full functionality out of my iPod. My suggestion at this point would be to open iTunes, sync your iPod and then choose restore. It will take your iPod back to the way it was when you originally purchased it. Once this process is done, sync only with iTunes.
    The problem here is the way iTunes stores the files versus the way Windows Media Player stores them. For iTunes, it creates a crazy file storage and naming structure. It also has several files containing such things as playlist and player content. Windows Media Player simply copies file and folder structures of the selected files. It essentially treats the player as if it were any other storage device. While easier for someone to just drag and drop new stuff to the player, the iPod doesn't recognize any of the copied files like other brands do.
    A strange side-effect of the crazy naming structure is that if you drag and drop files to your iPod or use WMP sync, not only does the iPod not recognize them, they still take up room. So, your iPod can appear to be full to iTunes. This can be frustrating if you expect the iTunes sync to clear out any unwanted files. Windows Media Player will also not recognize and delete the files added by iTunes.
