| Re: IPod questions You need to convert the videos to H.264 MPEG-4 (.mp4) and then use iTunes to transfer the files to the iPod. You also need to resize the videos to 320x240.

1 edit | Re: IPod questions said by Rxdoxx  :I need Itunes (do i?) if so how do I get his system to the internet to get it? TIA I've transferred countless videos, pictures and songs to and from my ipod, have always used iTunes to do it. The iPod should have come with a cd containing the software.
Edit: I've been told that they don't ship the CD with the product anymore. However, the iPod is basically a removable hard-disk, you could download iTunes on your machine, copy it to the iPod (shows as a disk drive) and then connect it to the other machine and install from there. | |

| If you don't like/can't use iTunes, I believe Anapod will sync up with an iPod completely (including videos).

There's a trial version you can use, if you like it I think it costs around $20-30.

| Re: IPod questions Tried Anapod, nope.
Problem seems to be that ITunes is Absolutely, unequivocally, a demanded requirement to get this ipod to do anything.
Read the tutorials... all I see is Itunes stuff.
As soon as the Ipod is plugged in the USB port on my computer, a red slash/circle appears on the Ipod (with the words do not disconnect) and I can do nothing with the Ipod until I remove it from my system. At that point, Ipod's menu re-appears.
Tutorials say that Itunes should be triggered by this connecting process, but I am not going to allow quicktime to install on my system (unless sandboxed) and the sandbox installation fails with ITunes complaining that it cannot get server rights on my system... not sure why, probably because it is sandboxed and cannot execute a kernal hook on its own, but that is just a guess from experience).
SO I've hit a dead end here. Apparently this version on Ipod is configured to only leave its sleep/restricted mode with a wake-up call from ITunes alone.
What a work of monopolistic pasture patties.
