Loading movies onto ipods... How?

[cody anderson]

So I have some movies that I want to put onto my ipod... How do I do this? I have them downloaded and saved to a file. I even already have some onto my itunes but the SOB's won't go on it?

Thanks guys. Ya'll rock...

what format are they in? search apple.com/support forums (discussions)

[cody anderson]

mpeg format

[nosliw]

are you using a PC? is the ipod formatted to the kind of OS you're using?

if they're in MPEG, all should be fine.

how did you try to import it?

they have to be converted before yo ucan play them on your ipod. free program at www.videora.com very easy to use. let me know if you need any help with it

Ok, I think that I have coverted them properly. Does it compress them when you convert them?

I have them on my itunes now, but they won't go on the pod... Pisses me off!

first you convert them. then you select your ipod in the itunes program. then you find the movie that you had converted earlier and drag it to your ipod/itunes screen and let it go. it will then transfer it to your ipod
