Transfering tv shows to ipod

I recently purchased a tv show on itunes. It is in my itunes library, but it will not transfer to my ipod. I have a nano. How do I know if the ipod will play tv shows? Does it have to be a particular generation? please forgive my lack of knowledge!

Only the Fifth Generation iPods can play TV shows or any other video content; your iPod nano cannot. To tell which model of iPod you have, see this article for information.

  • TS1363 Transfering tv shows to ipod

    I have recently bought Hart of Dixie season 2 and for some reason I cannot put the series on my ipod. It tells me that I cannot play the video on a ipod. I would like to know why and how I can change that. I have other tv shows where I had no problem transfering over.

  • I transfered music from my ipod to a new itunes library (new PC).  The music plays in itunes but when I sync my ipod and try to drag songs from the itunes library to the ipod it wont load.  It shows a circle with aline through it.

  • Mac programs for transferring video to an iPod

    Hello everyone, first time poster
    I just have a couple questions about iPod video. Sorry if I'm creating another thread about getting videos on it, but my questions just have not been fully answered in the other threads.
    First off, I'm running Mac OS X version 10.4.3 on a 1.42 GHz eMac. So any programs that are suggested to me that run only on Windows or only show system requirements of Windows are of no use to me.
    Now here are my questions.
    1. How do I get videos on an iPod from a personal DVD? (i.e. movies I created on a single-write disc/re-writeable disc)
    2. How do I get videos on an iPod from a commercially sold DVD? (i.e. any regular DVD you buy at Best Buy, etc.)
    3. What format does the video need to be to get onto the iPod?
    4. What is the best program, free or not, in transferring video to an iPod?
    5. What is the best FREE program in transferring video to an iPod?
    6. Can I download video from a file sharing program (who will remain nameless) then transfer that video to an iPod?
    7. Can I change the format name of a video file that may not play on an iPod (say .wmv a file) to a format name that WILL play on an iPod (I assume it's .mpeg-4)?
    8. How do I transfer video from iMovie to an iPod?
    9. If I buy my iPod at a regular Apple Store (not the online store), get the AppleCare Protection Plan for it, and if a problem arises with the iPod and I take it to the store for support, will I not be serviced based on the content of my iPod?
    Again, sorry if these questions have already been asked and answered, but I just feel better that my own personal questions have been answered, and I don't have to tag on other questions to a different thread.

    1. Handbrake
    2. Handbrake
    3. From the iPod tech specs:
    "H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats"
    4. iTunes
    5. iTunes
    6. Yes, assuming you convert it first to a supported format. Use iSquint.
    7. You can't just change the file extension, you have to actually convert it. Use iSquint
    8. export a quicktime movie, then use either Quicktime Pro or iSquint to convert it.
    9. No. The content of your iPod will have no bearing on service (unless you install iPodLinux on it, which voids your warranty).

  • I've transferred photos to my ipod classic from my laptop. But how can I transfer JPEG images to ipod?

    I've transferred photos to my ipod classic from my laptop. But how can I transfer JPEG images to ipod?

    Hello, Blondet787. 
    JPEG photos are compatible with your device.  As long as these images are in the same folder as your pictures, then they should sync.  Below, I have included a couple articles that show you how to sync this data to your iPod.

    The article below is a little more detailed and designed more as a storage solution for media on your iPod Classic.

  • I'm having problems transfering audiobooks to my iPod touch 5th Gen with the latest software upgrade.  It combines 2 books under the same title giving me multiple chapters within the single title.

    When I transfer audiobooks to my touch, I sometimes get a new book transferred that shows up correctly in iTunes but when I open music on the iPod, I have a single book title with both volumes under it.  I end up with 2 Chapters 1, 2 Chapters 2, etc.  Anyone else have this problem?

    Well, I decided to try working at it from the Windows side because I was getting absolutely nowhere using iTunes in OS X. Strangely enough it just worked like it's supposed to this time when I loaded up iTunes in Vista. (I tried before in Vista, with the same problem occurring).
    No idea why it worked... I hadn't even authorized iTunes in Vista to play tracks registered to my iTMS account.
    If anyone can offer any help from the Mac side, it would be much appreciated. I only have a few specific reasons for using Vista... would prefer if I could avoid restarting into it just to change a few things on my iPod.

  • What version of itunes would show a ipod icon instead of a music icon on my ipad

    I sold this ipad to a friend and now it shows she only has IOS 4.2 and therefore can not load apps.  It also shows an ipod icon instead of a music icon.   It the reason she is having problems the version of itunes downloaded.  And is it possible her old dell computer can't load a newer version of iTunes?

    The Version of Itunes is not the problem. Its the version of IOS.  4.2 is quite old.  
    She'll need to connect the iPad to her PC running the iTunes desktop Application. doesn't matter if its slightly older, to update to a newer version of IOS on the iPad.
    Also assuming her Dell isn't really really old.. I'm sure she can run the newest version if the iTunes Desktop Application just fine.  As the Requirements aren't really all that high.
    Itunes 10.7 Windows System Requirements
    PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista or Windows 7 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
    250MB of available disk space
    Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store

    Hmm.. Thank you for the response.
    Have you tried using the iPod with another user account or computer, to help narrow down whether the problem lies with the computer, account, or the iPod itself?
    Maybe try reformatting it, using the tools provided by Windows. Instructions on how to reformat your iPod can be found in this article.

  • ITunes 9.0.1 not showing my iPod Touch since I installed OS 10.5.8

    Your help, please...
    iTunes 9.0.1 is not showing my iPod Touch since I installed OS 10.5.8.
    Your ideas are welcome, because I'm out of them.
    Thank you,

    It looks like part of the crash report is missing. But at the top of your message it states there's an issue with the xmlTextReader in Pages. I guess this means Pages is having trouble opening, closing or saving the document.
    If this only happens with one Pages document then it may just be corrupt.
    If this happens with any Pages document then I'd suggest deleting Pages, reinstalling it from DVD/Mac App Store, updating it and then trying to work with a document.
    If this doesn't answer your question please provide more information eg what steps to take to cause the problem, if it happens with one or many documents, if you get any error message at all, etc.

  • Even with ipod rip, trouble transferring music from Win-IPOD to Mac-Itunes

    New Macbook (recent convert). Windows formatted IPOD. Bought IPOD-Rip. Plugged in ipod holding down Apple+Option so no accidents. Said IPOD RIP didn't recognize any music on IPOD, but did I want to do "hard recover" Yes. So--it then transferred entire contents of IPOD to Mac desktop. There it sits in all its glory. But my Mac Itunes doesn't recognize it, I THINK because it is Windows formatting. How do I get these songs into my Mac Itunes? While transfers are commonly discussed here, I don't think I've seen this particular problem?

    Thanks so much! Seems to have basically worked. But didn't import the playlists...I'm sort of assuming that given everything else peculiar to my situation, that there's nothing I can do about that?
