Video Wont Go to iPod

Today I purchased a video and when I went to go update it into my iPod it said it could not update and that my software is too old and to go to the summary tab on my iPod and click update, when I go to do this it says I have the newest update. Everything else is on my iPod but not the new video I purchased. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Get the software by going to iTunes prefs in the
General panel and look towards the bottom. Click
Check for Updates Automatically, then Ok. Then go
back to your iPod window in iTunes and Update will be
available.
Once your iPod software is updated and restarted,
you'll be on your way to enjoying your downloaded
media.

I have just tried this and the update is still not working. I have the newest iTunes out and the 5th generation iPod. Any other ideas of what I could do?

  • Itunes will not play any songs/videos; also, videos wont tranfer to iPod.

    This problem started a couple of days ago; It started after I downloaded 6.0.2... There were a bunch of problems to my computer because of that, although they might not have been related. In any case, I ended up using system restore 3 times and uninstalling/reinstalling itunes quite a bit.
    Now my computer's back to normal, except one thing: iTunes. Its acting... funky. Weird. It wont play any songs/videos on iTunes itself, which is annoying but I don't mind it as I just use my iPod... EXCEPT that it wont transfer ANY videos to my iPod. NONE. Even the old videos on it were erased as iTunes said that "They can't be viewed". I KNOW these videos work on my iPod as I converted them to specifications and plus, I've seen most of them before on it (Also, I have a few music store bought videos and they wont transfer either). It seems to be a deep rooted technical problem inside iTunes, but I can't seem to fix it.
    I've repaired/reinstalled/completely uninstalled, wiped reg. values with a cleaner, and it STILL doesn't work...
    I need help. This problem is weird, and I'd like it fixed. I want to see videos again...

    If anyone else can't play songs from their device in iTunes, try steps below which solved my problem:
    Be sure your device is selected.
    Right Click anywhere on Contents screen.
    Select "Reset Plays" your selected song(s) should begin playing.
    The "Pause, Play etc" buttons are no longer greyed out.

  • Video Wont Load To ipod!

    I know this may sound dumb, but have you selected your "update all videos" preferences when your iPod is connected to your computer? Sometimes little things like that are forgotten.

  • MSN videos wont go onto iPod

    How do I put a video onto my iPod if I got it from a friend on MSN messenger

    Videora may not convert wmv files.
    Try this...
    http://www.filetrial.com/convert/wmvtomov.html
    Then take that converted file and drag it into iTunes. Right click the video and go to convert selection for iPod.
    That second converted video should transfer to iPod.

  • Video wont transfer to iPod Classic

    Why is this? It transfered before, then I wiped it and now it wont transfer, saying those videos aren't compatible with this version of iPod.

    Hi Peabot,
    If you are having issues transfering videos to your iPod Classic, especially videos that have transferred successfully previously, you may want to take a look at the following article:

  • Videos wont download to ipod

    HI I have downloaded some TV shows from Itunes and when I go to sync them to my iPod I get an error message saying the item can't be downloaded because the item can't be played in this iPod. I am not sure what is wrong. I have an Ipod Nano 4gb i think it is 2nd gen or maybe even 3rd. Please help

    Read this article related to your issue.  You may be trying to sync the High Definition (HD) version of the TV Show to your device.  The iPod classic does not support HD content. You'll want to download the SD version instead.
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available.  You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

  • Video wont sync onto ipod

    Hey, im seeking help...
    For some reason, my videos that are in my itunes library for some reason will not sync over to my ipod. I have a 160gn ipod classic, anyone have any idea why this isnt happening?
    Cheers

    Hey there,
    Are you sure you have your iPod set to sync movies to it? To be sure, plug your iPod in, and when it appears in iTunes, head over to the Movies tab and make sure you have it set to Sync. What you sync is up to you, but make sure that still has a check mark next to Sync.
    If that doesn't help, your movie or video may not be in an iPod-compatible format. To make it that way, navigate to the movies section of your iTunes library and find the video and right->click and choose "Create iPod or iPhone version" and wait for it to convert. The time it takes to convert depends on the length of the video. When it is done, try resyncing it to your iPod and see if that helps. You may have to do this for each video in your Library that is not syncing. Hope this helps.
    Here is a bit more on syncing videos to your iPod.

  • Downloading podcast videos - wont play on ipod

    I had a video that was from podcast which I could play on the itune version 6 but why didn't it play or download onto my ipod when I tried to download it to my ipod.
    Thank you
    Merry Crimbo to everyone!!!

    I can only watch it on itunes and there is no way that I can sync the video podcast only if I am downloaded the episods and it is a show that people are talking in.
    I am also trying to put a radio station on my ipod. But I only have it on my itunes. Is there a way to put it on the ipod. I have tried drag and drop it to my icon ipod but that did not work. I think you have to buy the radio station. Also, does anyone have a link in podcast for an english radio station for powerfm. I know the web site its www.powerfm.com but I want it so that I can have it on my ipod. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
    I have a 60GB colour screen and it has a turn wheel. If that is what it is called.
