How To Put Video On IPod

I am positive most of you with an iPod video, have previously owned videos you might want to have on your iPod but aren't quite sure how to go along doing this. It is the case of many of the people I know, so I will discuss this in this simple article.

1 - You must download a software that will convert your video file into a mp4 file. This is because the iPod reads this type of file. Such a software is easy to find with keywords such as : Video converter on google to find this type of software.

2- Use this software to convert your video file to an mp4 file. Mp4 is a video format which the iPod's Operating System can read natively. Converting is really easy with any application that is out there.

3- Add the video files to your iTunes. You can simply do this two ways: Either drag and drop the file to your iTunes library or go in the "File" menu and select "Add File to Library". Then select your mp4 files which you want to add. It will appear in your iPod library in the videos section. If you're file is not in mp4 format you will not be able to put the video on your iPod.

4- Update your iPod, wait for the transfer, and you've got your portable video. Note you can also drag and drop the file directly to the iPod logo in iTunes and the file will be directly transfered to your iPod.

Voilà, now you can bring memories all-around with you or share some video with others! Have fun!

I own a blog on which I talk about this, how to actually convert the said video. It is also possible to view other types of video, but you need to install Linux or Rockbox. Two great user interfaces you can use for the iPod. Go the my and blog learn more, Click Here!
