Won't sync purchased movies?

My ipod classic has movies and t.v show options on the main menu, in iTunes too, but iTunes won't sync videos to my ipod. I had movies I bought in iTunes which worked fine on my old nano, but an error shows up saying "____ was not copied onto the ipod "Ashleigh's Ipod" because it cannot be played on this Ipod."
Also, movies/pictures/video is not an option on my capacity chart, it just had audio, other, and free, but I don't know if that's new and doesn't include a color code for movies because I have none on my ipod.

And I messed around and downloaded a free podcast from the iTunes store to see if THAT would work and the error message says "____ was not copied because the video format is not supported by the iPod 'Ashleigh's Ipod'".

    It sounds like you actually have a 5th Generation iPod video and those are not able to sync rented movies. Sorry.

  • My iPod won't sync purchased songs.

    I get my music from both CD's and the iTunes store, but when i tried to sync my iPod yesterday it deleted all the songs i purchased from iTunes but the CD songs still remained. All my songs still show up in my music library on my computer but won't sync onto my iPod. What am i doing wrong?
    also, this all happened right after i had to reinstall iTunes for some unknown reason.

    i'm having this same problem, any ideas?

  • Ipod won't sync purchased itunes, only cd's that were downloaded

    It is a new computer that I have authorized, and I get the confirmation that it was authorized, but still won't sync any of the Itunes store purchases.

    Sometimes you need to play one of the iTunes store songs in iTunes to get the authorization to work. Even of you used the authorize option from main menu. Have you tried that?

  • AppleTV will not sync purchased movies or TV shows

    ATV will not sync my previously purchased movies or TV shows. I have no problems syncing personal MP4 identified as moves or TV, all music, podcasts and photo's. I haven't made any (non-iTunes)software or hardware changes. Problem began about the time of the latest iTunes release, but I'm not sure of the cause. I have followed all WC's suggestions: Updated all iTunes and ATV software, de and re-authorized, moved .xml file out and back. Even reset factory settings on ATV.
    Regardless, I get the "cannot contact iTunes Store" or the "check firewall port 8 whatever". Well, I have no problem getting to the iTunes store and they take my money easy enough...my ports are wide open, so what gives?

    I am also having this problem. TV shows seem to be ok. 1 purchased movie has synced. I have a total of 4 movies. the one purchased movie is showing in the ATV devices section of itunes in the purchased and purchased on apple tv folder. it also appears in the movies folder on itunes. The other 3 movies do not show in the purchased folder or purchased on ATV in the ATV folder in itunes. They do appear on the ATV device however. I have read some posts indicate that movies cannot be synced from ATV to Itunes when purchased on ATV. I do not believe this to be true and because one movie is on itunes and ATV in itunes and I am able to sync back and forth with ATV through itunes. I have had a hardware change to my system with the Airport extreme but it is still letting me sync the one movie back and forth. It seems odd that the other movies are not showing up in my purchased folder in itunes.

  • HT203180 Cannot sync purchased movies to iPad

    Since upgrading to the new OS this morning, I have been unable to load iTunes Store purchased movies to my iPad.  In fact, after I loaded the new system, I lost all of the movies on my iPad.  It did allow the movies that I've ripped from my collection into iTunes to stay on the iPad.  Any suggestions?

    Are the movies still in iTunes on the Mac - if they are sync them again. Make sure that they are selected to sync and that the sync movies heading is selected as well.
    If the movies are in iTunes and you already tried to sync them with no success - Are you using the same Apple ID on the iPad that you are using in iTunes on the Mac and would that be the ID that you bought the movies with?
    If you live in the U.S., many movies can now be downloaded again from iTunes at no charge as long as you use the same Apple ID that you used to buy the movies. You can download them again in the purchased tab of the iTunes Store on the iPad - tap on the View Movies Button in the upper left corner and your purchased movies will appear. Tap on the cloud icon to download them again.
    You can also download them again in iTunes on the Mac and sync them back to the iPad.

  • Nook app for iPad won't sync purchased book...help?!

    I recently created a Barnes and Noble account so that I could access the nook app for my iPad.  I purchased a book, I can see it on my Barnes and Noble Library.  When I go to "download" it, I get a message: "Oops! This item cannot be downloaded from your browser."  I went to the app to "sync" my library like other support sites said but it still won't sync.  I am very frustrated with this.  Has anyone else encountered these issues?
    My account information is up to date, my software information is up to date, and I have compatable devices. Help!

    You need to upgrade your iPad to iOS 4.2. Connect your iPad, click on its icon in the sidebar in iTunes (under "Devices"), go to the Summary tab, and click the "Check for Update" button. That should get you the iOS update, assuming your Mac is running the correct version of iTunes. You don't say what OS your Mac is running, but to get iOS 4.2, you will need iTunes 10, and that requires Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6.
    Regards.

  • Authorized computer not syncing purchase movies to iphone

    Hello, I recently brought my computer back to life and I am having problems syncing certain purchased movies from my computer to my iphone.  Everything syncs well except for some movies.  I got the authorize computer message and did that but the problem persists.  Everything checks out with the location of the movies and I am able to play them on my computer in the itunes session.  I just can't get them over to my iphone4 which I was able too previously.
    Couple of notes.  My computer died and I have it restored all as is with exception to the new mother board etc.  Everything else works as expected other than this issue.
    Please help if possible.
    thx

    They must be in a format to play on the iphone or they will not sync. Select the movie in itunes, then Advanced>Create Ipod/Iphone version. Select that version to sync to your phone. You can also use handbrake to create iphone versions & then drag them to itunes. Handbrake has presets for the iphone:

  • 30 GB Video iPOD won't sync purchased songs from iTUNES.

    Previously, on the same computer, I have synced purchased songs from my Itunes library to my iPOD. Now, suddenly, an error message says that I'm not authorized to do so. I use my computer in two countries, the US and Taiwan, and wonder if this has anything to do with the problem. I've already restored the Ipod and reloaded all the songs. The purchased songs still appear in my library but will not sync.

    Have you tried Deauthorizing then Authorizing your computer through the Store menu in iTunes?

    I'm using the 5th generation ipod nano...which I haven't used in a while due to getting a touch screen.
    Now that I'm trying to use it again... it won't sync anything I've bought on itunes, because of some 'error' ... I don't know how to fix it at this point considering I've reset it more than once.
