ive downloaded most of my videos for the 30 and 60 GB iPod through limewire and they have turned out just fine. what have you been using to download the videos from?

iTunes works just peachy also.

Okay, Super GAL, can you tell me exactly what OS you're running on what kind of computer? Also lets find out what version of iTunes and QuickTime you have. Once we get that info in place we'll have a clearer picture of what to do to get those videos behaving.

To dislike Sinatra is a sign of highly questionable taste. To dislike the Beatles is a serious character flaw.

(its a pet peeve of mine, but this is how you spell: embarrassing)

anyway, limewire is just a media downloading service. you can pay to use it or just download a free version off the internet. it allows you to download any type of media (music, tv shows, videos, etc.) it should work with all kinds of PC's. i have a Dell Laptop and it works just fine with that and my HP Pavillion desk top and anyone else that i know that uses it has no problem, except that you have to run your virus scan more often because you have to disable your firewall protector to download it.

i cant help with the iTunes problem...mine works just fine. maybe that other guy can help with that.

yes but it might not work if you dont have the newest version of itunes or quicktime. If you do you should then be able to download videos from itunes the same way you do music then load them onto your ipod very easly. If you want to get more complicated you could load any video in mp4 format onto your ipod. You could get these from ripping a dvd (using handbreak or windows equvilent) or like kadoyle said from limewire.

the software for the most recent version of iTunes should have come with your iPod. you just need to upload it. you can download video from iTunes OR limewire. you dont have to use both.
