Hey everyone, i just got a new 5th generation ipod. I can get music on my ipod, but it seems like my computer doesn't recognize that it is a 5th gen ipod. I can put videos in the library, and they are mpeg4, but when i go to update, it will only update songs. I will take any suggestions. Thanks.

Yeah, but for some reason I don't have a video tab. I used the cd that came with the ipod, so it should, but it doesn't.

okay you must have that tab or your itunes must be outdated...go to edit then prefernece then to ipod, there should be tab for video or movie, when you find that tab, just press on always update videos... edited by ddp

Yes, that is correct.
I put videos in video library, but "video update" must be set
to automatic.
It works with my iPod. I've put and removed 20 videos so far and it works perfectly.
It uses a lot of battery power when I play those videos, though.

i got a 5G ipod for xmas this year and after i installed iTunes, it said there was a newer version of iTunes available. i installed the new version and i don't have a problem getting mp4 onto my ipod.
maybe the video tab is in the newer version?

I don't think thats it because I downloaded the newest version of itunes on apple's website and my video preferences are still grey. Just out of curiosity, are we talking about videos that are downloaded from apple's music store or videos downloaded from places like limewire?

Exactly.... your videos, movies, whatever must be formatted for the iPod... being an mpeg4 file doesn't mean it's iPod ready.
Spend $1.99 and purchase a video from iTunes to see if it works...

And why does everyone insist on setting their iPods to automatically sync... It's a bad idea on so many levels...
If your computer harddrive crashes you'll lose eyerything on your iPod..
If you visit a friend and download a song or two.... when you get home you'll lose everything on your iPod..
If you can't get iTunes to auto update videos try dragging one of those videos into the iPod... chances are they're not iPod ready..

Hey Julia91...
You may have to convert those videos... there are several solutions available for download...
Do you have a PC or Mac???

Okay... it cost a few dollars but "pqdvd to iPod" will not only convert your limewire files but it will also convert most DVDs to iPod as well.... yes, your favorite movies in your pocket!!!

Hi, i have received a video ipod recently...
My problem is really weird and have spent lots of time on it and still cannot figure it out.
I put a few movies in mp4 (i bought an ipod movie converter) on my ipod without a problem when i had just got it, however just recently my converted limewire downloads in mp4 would not be able to get into itunes. I tried to import the movies several times different ways into itunes but itunes wouldnt even respond...please help...

In iTunes go to Edit->Prefrences->iPod->Videos
And theres a box where you check off something along the lines of 'Update Videos'
And make sure they are compatibile with the iPod
Video formats supported:
H.264 video up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 KHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats;
MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 KHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats

Well then they probably arn't compatibile with the iPod. You're going to have to convert them. A free program I use is called Videora, but there is a long list of other converters avaiblible to use. Just do a google search for one if you don't like Videora. A guide on how to use Videora is here:

Just scroll down about half way.
