Tv shows on my nano

I purchased some tv shows on itunes, but they won't transfer to my nano

The Nano does not support video. You can, however, watch your purchases on your computer.

  • Why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)?

    I am using iTunes 11.0 and can sync a movie (Miracle on 34th Street) to my new ipod nano 7th gen but when I try a TV Show (a Planet Earth HD episode) or even a brief video clip taken with my camara I am told that such an action is not permitted on this ipod.  So why can I sync a movie but not TV shows on my nano (7th gen)?  Thank you.

    Before you can sync video files, it must be converted into a format compatible with ipod.  If you can’t sync a video convert it by doing the following:
    In iTunes, select the video you want to convert. Do one of the following then sync again after:
    1) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPod or iPhone Version.
    2) Choose File > Create New Version > Create iPad or Apple TV Version.
    I hope this works.

  • TV Shows on iPod Nano (3rd gen)

    So I downloaded a free TV show off iTUnes, but it won't show on my iPod. Is that because the shows don't work with 3rd gen, or is something wrong?

    If you are using a first or second generation iPod nano, it cannot play any video content.

  • Album Artwork not showing up in Nano

    I just got a Nano and I have been importing my CD's to iTunes so that I can put it on my Nano. I have manually put in the artwork for the albums, but they're still not showing up in my Nano. I see it in iTunes under my iPod when connected, but not on the actual iPod. I'm reading a lot about "syncing" with the computer, but I don't really understand what it means. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    'Syncing' just means plugging your nano in, and if everything is set to auto (usually this is how it comes straight out of the box) iTunes should fire up and copy your tracks to the nano.
    Here is a link to the tutorial if you haven't already gone through it:
    Add Song Information, Lyrics, and Artwork to My Tunes
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod101/tunes/2/#4
    You shouldn't have to convert ID3 tags as far as I know.
    I put the album art straight onto my iPod when it was connected to iTunes
    Not sure if this is the problem - the Artwork goes on the track in iTunes first, then you sync (load) the tracks to the iPod.
    The artwork becomes part of the mp3 file so it gets moved across to the iPod when you load your track.
    If you are still having problems after going through all this then get back and we'll try work out what to do next.
    You may want to do the restore step to set it back to factory conditions: The 5 Rs: Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall & Restore

  • Backlight won't work and my playlists won't show on my nano

    Hello,
    I need help. I just returned my first nano because it turned off and never turned back on, and last night I hooked up my new nano and the backlight isn't working and my playlists won't show up on my nano.
    I turned my backlight on and made sure it wasn't turned off and it still won't work.
    My playlists will show up on ITunes but not on my nano. I don't know what to do except take it back AGAIN. PLease help me.
    Like I said, I just returned my first one because of defects and now this one seems to have it's own problems.
    I'm frusturated
    Thank you

    Repair cannot be done online in the user to user forum.

  • AUDIOBOOK NOT SHOWING UP ON NANO

    I have recently purchased both a Christmas album and an audiobook for my Nano. I've downloaded plenty of music and audiobooks to my nano before.
    When I open my Nano on my MacBook, it shows that the book and album are both on the Nano, and I can play them both. However, when I disconnect my Nano from the Mac, I can't find them on my Nano.
    All software updates have been installed.
    Any help out there? Thank you!

  • HT1329 when click on ipod Nano (7th generation) on desktop of new mac air, NO folders show in ipod nano (even though in disk mode...) - help - why do none of folders of music  show? cannot transfer

    hi all
    i am trying to use my ipod nano 7th gen. to transfer all music from my ipod nano to my new macbook air
    i read the apple article but the step where it says
    'double click on ipod on desktop and transfer/drag the itunes folder to your itunes folder in computer/hard drive' - there are NO FOLDERS and nothing showing when i double click on my ipod nano
    no music shows
    even though i have 7 days of music on there
    what can i do?

    *Please don't just tell me to switch to a Mac.* Giggle, giggle!
    *The local Apple Store is baffled, but it appears they don't want to give me my money back or a credit due to it being bought from Amazon (even though they are an authorized reseller).* Just because they are an "authorized reseller" does not mean that Apple can recoup the refund.
    Now, to your problem. Perhaps the Apple Store already suggested this but you always want to begin with the basics. These steps might not solve your problem but they're kind of like checking to confirm that the TV is plugged in before you troubleshooot the blank screen.

  • Itunes showing my ipod nano memory as -19.48 gb?

    I suddenly developed this problem on connecting my ipod to my comp today. The ipod nano was automatically renamed "198", and the memory capacity as shown by itunes was erraneous. Teh result is taht i cant copy a single song into my ipod anymore.
    strangely, this seems to be an itunes related issue...as the ipod works fine on anotehr comp. However, i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, updated it, restored my ipod, changed the usb ports, tried both usb 1.1 and usb 2.0 ports, scanned my comp for possible virri and spyware throughly, and even attempted some registry tinkering without any help.
    Anybody could provide a clue as to what sort of problem this is?

    IT seems another helpful user replied to a similar query. Apparently, windows xp's horrible disk management function messed itunes up by assigning the ipod a drive letter already in use (h:, was mapped to a network drive).
    Its not the first time this has caused problems, as i use a digital media center style comp with 1tb space, and have a dedicated swap drive as well. This kicked me out of my network the last time i got a new hdd, wasting hours spent in frustrated repair. **** bugs.
    anybody else who has this problem, please see this:

  • The iTunes that still accepts Windows 2000 won't show my iPod Nano (2nd gen

    p.s. I also connected it to my husband's laptop and his iTunes wouldn't recognize the device either (if that helps).

  • Only can get 220 songs to show up on Nano

    I have over 400 songs on my playlist, but only 220 songs will go on the Ipod. I need help trying to get all of my songs onto the Ipod.

    Are you getting any error messages? If so, please quote them.
    Also, does your iPod appear to be full or nearly full when you look at its details in the "Summary" page when you click on it in the Source List in iTunes?

  • No Nano - does not show up in ITunes or MY Computer

    I'm new to the IPOD and have had the Nano 1 week of which I spent 6 days trying to figure out why it wouldn't show up in ITunes.
    Solution - Eliminated extra drive assignments. I had used all the drive letter assignments from E: up to T: and had to remove the E: assignment so the Nano could use it.
    More info - The first time I plugged the Nano in it worked great. I loaded music onto it that I had previously stored and was able to listen and play it.
    So I decided to add more music from my CD collection.
    I removed the 3.5" floppy drive from the laptop and inserted the CD reader.
    !! That was the critical change because now the CD reader became D: drive which the Ipod had been using previously (I'm assuming, I never actually checked until it wouldn't work).
    After that I spent days trying to figure out why the Nano would no longer show up in ITunes. See details below:
    What I've Tried:
    1st Use:
    Windows XP 2002 SP1
    Had Itunes already on PC
    Charged Nano for a few hours until battery indicated full charge
    Plugged in 1st time, loaded Nano with tunes, no issues.
    Played music for awhile
    2nd Use:
    Swapped 3.5" Floppy drive for CD ROM drive
    Added more music from CD's
    Plugged in Nano
    ITunes opens up automatically
    Nano not shown in ITunes
    Nano not shown on My Computer
    Checked USB H/W configuration - shows IPOD connected
    Nano is charging, indicates "Do Not Disconnect"
    Disconnect Nano
    Shut down, Restart PC
    Reconnect Nano
    No change - no Nano
    Swapped USB Ports, no change - no Nano
    Disconnect Nano
    Reset Nano
    Reconnect Nano
    No change - no Nano
    Disconnect Nano
    Remove Itunes
    Reload Itunes from CD-ROM,
    Connect Nano when prompted by installation program but apparently doesn't recognize Nano is connected
    Installation gets stuck (45+ min) trying to "Format" Nano (Nano doesn't respond)
    Skip to next part of installation
    Shutdown, Restart PC
    Reconnect Nano
    No change - no Nano
    Disconnect Nano
    Remove Itunes
    Reload Itunes from CD-ROM
    Installation gets stuck again trying to "Format" Nano (Nano doesn't respond)
    Skip to next part of installation
    Set USB Drivers configuration to not disable power to USB port
    Shutdown, Restart PC
    Reconnect Nano
    No change - no Nano
    Shutdown, Restart PC
    Remove Itunes
    Shutdown, Restart PC
    Reload Itunes from CD-ROM
    Skip connecting Nano as part of installation
    Shutdown, Restart PC
    Run Ipod Updater 2005-09-06 program before plugging in Nano
    Connect Nano
    Restore software on Nano
    Nano Restores itself
    Nano indicates "Do not Disconnnect"
    ITunes opens up automatically
    Nano still not shown in ITunes
    Nano still not shown in My Computer
    Checked System\hardware\device manager\USB Mass Storage Device indicates says "Location 0 (Ipod)" and device is working properly
    Unplug Nano
    Swapped CD ROM with 3.5" Floppy drive
    Reboot PC
    Connect Nano
    Battery is already fully charged
    Noticed little timer thingy in upper left of Nano spinning around, probably always did it but this is first time I noticed it.
    ITunes Opens
    Nano still not shown in ITunes
    Nano still not shown in My Computer
    Nano shows up as USB Mass Storage Device under Safely Remove Hardware
    Final solution - free up drive assignment E: so Nano can use it.

    Glad you figured it out, but wow does that all make me glad I have a Mac!

  • Error message when dragging a tv show from iTunes to my nano...

    I get this message when trying to drag in a tv show from iTunes to ny nano...
    "Pilot (tv show is called 10 things i hate about you) was not copied to the iPod because it cannot be played on this iPod."
    This tv show was on the nano at some point. I had to do a restore. Anyway, I was able to drag a different tv show to my nano. What's up? Could something be wrong with that particular tv show?

  • IPod Nano not showing movie artwork in list view.

    h title says it all. If you look at the photo over here, you see the videos icons are not displayed at the bottom of the screen in list view. Normally artworks will scroll from right to left gradually if artworks are present.
    These are my own videos (no bought from itunes), and they all have artworks. These artworks shows up in itunes but not in my ipod.
    Anyone knows how to get the icon showing in ipod nano?

    Connect your iPod to the computer and when the summary comes up click on the restore button and see if that works.
