Trying to add video podcasts to iPod Classic

I'm trying to add video podcasts to my iPod Classic 160GB. I can see them in the podcast summary page get added in the sync, but I can not find them on my iPod. I have 5 TV shows added to it and can find them under Videos but when I add the video podcasts they do not show up in the Podcasts section. Is there something I can do?

They should appear under Podcasts if they successfully synced over to the device. I assume you didn't see any error messages when you synced these video podcasts over to your device?
To be sure, reset sync warnings on the iPod by right->clicking on it under Devices in the left hand pane of iTunes and choosing Reset Warnings. Then resync the iPod.

Video Podcast on iPod Classic vs iPhone 4

Some video podcasts will not load onto my iPod classic but WILL on my iPhone 4. I'm using iTunes 10 on a macbook. i read on this forum about converting video podcasts to iPod format, and that it doesn't always work. I'm just trying to find out why there is a difference between the iPod and the iPhone.
THANKS

MORE INFO:
I have also noticed that of the 4 video podcasts I have tried to download on my iPod classic, the only one that was successful had a bit rate, total bit rate, and size in MB that was approx double of what the other three had. I also have, since my last post, tried to convert the podcasts to an " iPod version" from the ADVANCED drop down menu in the iTunes toolbar, but it made no difference.
Any help would be appreciated!

Problems with TED video podcast in ipod classic 80gb

I have a lot of TED video podcast on my itunes on PC but i can't listen and view it on my ipod, i've red somewhere that video podcast with 46kbps are no longer supported by ipod classic? is that right?
there are any solutions?
please help me, i'm really interested in it

Yes, I'm still stuck too.
Some of my TED videos showed up in iTunes under "movies" when I migrated to a new computer; likely iTunes found the native files. These movies play fine but re-subscribing to the TED video podcast and trying to play them under "podcasts" on my iPod Classic (120 gb), they still won't play (screen goes black for about 1 sec, then it skips to the next podcast...repeat until entire list is done).
I saw someone post about a "convert to iPod", but I can't find that option in iTunes (windows 8, iTunes 11)
Thoughts?

Cannot add videos to my iPod "Classic"

Hi, I just converted a video from a DVD with Handbrake 0.9.5 and couldn't then add it to my iPod. I did a search in spotlight for the file and it came up as a "protected MPEG-4 movie". Now I've followed this proceedure many times over and never had this problem before what has happened to make this occur. Is it Handbrake or QT 10 as igirl1 wrote: discussions.apple.com/thread/2633767?start=0&tstart=0. This file plays just fine in iTunes and sending it to the iPod the green plus sign comes up but nothing happens. Please can anybody help?

Sorry didn't realize the forum was incorrect as the path above reads:

Trying to add kgo podcast to ipod nano

tryingtoadd kgo radio podcast to ipod nano using itunes

You can only transfer music and videos through iTunes. If computer/laptop music folders is what you mean of "existing library", then it would not be possible. Add your files first to iTunes then sync.

Unable to sync video podcast to ipod classic

I have subscribed to a video podcast "Walk in the Word". The very first one sync'd to my ipod. Ever since, they download to my itunes library just fine, but they will not sync to my ipod classic 160gb. I have talked to tech support and have deleted the podcasts and redownloaded. Refreshed the podcasts, deauthorized and reauthorized and have up to date software. Still won't sync. I have gone into the podcast inquiry to "report a concern", perhaps there is an encoding issue with
the podcast producer. Does anybody have any suggestions that may help? Thank you

I think I may have found the problem. Apparently, ITunes cannot sync HD podcasts. Apple...why???

PLEASE help: video on new iPod Classic 160gb

Hi all,
I would be really grateful if someone could help me. I was lucky enough to receive a shiny black 160gb iPod Classic for Xmas to replace my old 3rd Gen one.
However I'm having a bit of trouble with videos. I have downloaded some video podcasts via iTunes store that have synced to my pod and play fine. However I have just downloaded some TV shows from the internet - they play in iTunes and are listed in my iPod under"My Devices" but I just can't find them on the pod.
Any ideas????

Hiya and thanks for your respose!!
I downloaded them from a torrent site but they did say they were specifically formatted for iPod use - the file format is MPEG4.
However, I've also tried downloading a video podcast from directly from iTunes (again in MPEG4 format) that hasn't synced to my pod either.
It seems the only video I've managed to sync is a podcast I downloaded about a year ago and two music videos I had from importing CD's.
Any further help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Itunes/quicktime crashes when trying to play video podcasts and 3GP files

Hello all,
I've searched these forums and didn't see anything that might help me, so if know of any solutions posted already, please let me know. I have an HP laptop(AMD Turion 64 X2 2.0 GB processor, 2 GB or RAM) running Windows Vista Home Premium. I used to be able to play 3GP files at one time with Quicktime, but now I cannot. Then, the other day I tried to play a video podcast and it starts to play, then says, "Itunes has stopped working". Quicktime does the same thing with 3GP files. This was before my update to Itunes 8.0. It happpened with Itunes 7.5.11.1 or whatever the last version was. It obviously does the same thing with Itunes 8. I've tried completely uninstalling Itunes and quicktime, then reinstalling them both and I still have the same problem. Just a note: I tried playing the video podcast via Windows Media Playey, and it worked fine, except for no audio(I don't think WMP has AAC support) so I think something is conflicting between Itunes and my computer. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

Video podcasts and iPod Nano

Hi everybody!
Why can't I add video podcasts to my iPod nano 4GB ?

no...i don't becuase, like all good marketing, they have certain products with certain features.
Such as,
Ipod Nano = incredibly small, album art, and a good amount of music
ipod Video= little big but the screen needs to be big for video capabilities. They can also get more money for something like this.
and plus if nano had video, it be hard to see...the screen is extremely small.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have separate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have seperate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use. I have tried many things and the only guess I have is that either someone else has this email as their iMessage but is fake or it wasn't taken off my old iPod when I reset it. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks but that doesn't give me the information I need. I am putting an email on my ipod for people to contact me for iMessage and FaceTime but when I put the email in, it gives me an error saying that the email cannot be veirified because it is already in use. My Apple ID can be varified, just not the email that they will contact me with.

HT1351 I've encoded a vinyl LP record into digital format and recorded it onto an usb as MP3 file. But when I tried to copy it onto my ipod classic, I get a message stating "was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod". Why?

I've encoded a vinyl LP record into digital format and recorded it onto an usb as MP3 file. But when I tried to copy it onto my ipod classic, I get a message stating "was not copied to the ipod because it cannot be played on this ipod". Why?

I was refering to the "sample rate", normally 44.1 KHz, the iPod might not be able to play tracks with a non-standard rate. Otherwise I'm not sure what the issue might be.
