Apple: Video iPod, TV Downloads, New iMacs

That sucks! We just bought my daughter 20 GB Ipod Color for $300. If they would have TOLD us there was a 30 GB Ipod with video coming out in a month, I can tell you for sure I would have waited for it!

eh, i'm not surprised.

some screenshots would be nice :)

Hellooooooo thats why they didint say anything. so just own two or three or for like the rest of us. lol

"That sucks! We just bought my daughter 20 GB Ipod Color for $300."

I don't think I've ever made a technology purchase where I didn't feel screwed within six months of the purchase. Especially with Apple. You just have to prepare yourself in advance by telling yourself that whatever you buy, it's going to be outdated the day you buy it. Technology marches on...

Doug: They gotcha! Now you gonna spend $600.00 with Apple instead of only $300.00.

Do you guys really think they do this by accident? They make you buy now what they have to offer, rather than saying "hold on, wait 6 more months when we really improved it". They want your $$$ now.

PS. Doug your short! LOL So it Bobby!

PSS. Screen shots would have been a great add on to this story. I had to go to another site that did have screen shots. They look great. Maybe I will wait 6 months to get it! LOL

i told u it was a video ipod 4 sure, and a itunes to accompany it... skrew the new mac, i'm a pc user and will remain that way, but ipod's rok...

hypocrisy is in my blood, and so is crooked spelling.

Im happy with Apples news. Think of the possibilities coming down the road.
Wish we had a palm... now that palm is loading its new treos with Microsoft crap.
As far as buying a new Pod. when you buy technology you buy it for the given day. true its already out dated by the time you buy it...
Don forget apple realease great updates and new products atleast every 6 months. I cant say that for Microsoft ... the only thing they release a virus and hack patches.

I've been waiting for about 2 months for this to come out. All the rumors were true, this is truely a fabulous upgrade for the same price as the old models. I've already ordered mine so I'll have it the maximum days before the next update comes out

Can you return it .. ie asa satisfaction guaranteed thing, ie say you are happy with it .. but don't say you just want the other model. NOt a lie, just a selective telling of the truth.

Well, ThinkSecret reports that the video capability is already in the current iPod, but just disabled. Hopefully somebody will find out how to enable it. They also mentioned a bigger video iPod later in 2006. Like rodd said, there is always a better pod tomorrow.

"i told u it was a video ipod 4 sure, and a itunes to accompany it... skrew the new mac, i'm a pc user and will remain that way, but ipod's rok..."

Apple sure makes great music/video players. Too bad they can't make better 'puters than Dell/Microsoft.

- NOT!

Anyone know if you can put regular movie files in there, or just the purchased music videos / TV shows?

I am sure that just as many websites have shown you how to "hack" the Nano, and the original Ipod, there will be Hacks for the video Ipod to allow you to watch DVD's that you store inside. It is just a matter of time, my friend.

oh boy...can't wait to "watch" videos on a ludicrously small screen...hooray technology!

this is sarcasm.

ipods rule man - can't wait for iPhone!

That iMac is the single greatest breakthrough in technology since the first PC! it has everything! a built in movie camera, built in stereo speakers, built in microphone, built in firewire, built in 20" screen, built in wireless internet, built in Bluetooth, built in Modem, built in Slot-loading Dual-Layer DVD-RW drive, built in iLife, Preinstalled with OS X TIGER---no stupid 'home edition' but the real whopping deal, 64 bit, 250gig hard drive, great graphics card, PCI express, 2.5gig DDR2, Screamin fast.... and less than 1.5" wide! Plus it only needs one cord to work: the power cable! This thing is awsome, and it puts all the other computer makers (i.e. Dell, Hp) TO SHAME!! they cant make this if they tried, it is truly a work of art.

GEE!! Personal Media Player?hummm, or beter known as MP4 player on EBAY for about 100 bucks, video,MP3,wma etc..plus radio,, these other players have been on the market for over a year now, looks like Ipud has been trying to play catch up.

Is there really an iPhone?

There are already tutorials on how to get your own dvds into the new ipod video. I am very excited to get this! I have a Palm LifeDrive too, but somehow, life would be more ordinary if I didn't own this ipod also. With 60 gb of memory, I can have an abundance of music and my movies to accompany me where ever I should venture. Thank you Apple!

can you actually watch movies on it? i mean download films off the net and put them on the ipod?

get it completely free at http://ipods.freepay.com/?r=17638337 they
have sent out over 19000 ipods and backed by CNN, MSNBC, AND WIRED!

hey there, i use 3 programs to get my dvd's onto my 60Gb video ipod.
- first i rip the dvd using dvdripper.
- then i use a program called videora ipod converter to convert the ripped dvd to mpeg 4 or watever.
- next i use itunes to get it onto my ipod.

this method is fairly time consuming. has anyone any other methods that are better??

Do they make mp4 players with voice recorder and video? If they do what web sites can you buy them from? Thanx Bye

u guess suk

hehehehehehehe i am an evil genius

I have had the ipod njow for about a month, and i must say the video playback sucks.

Maybe it is me, or my computer, but i don't know. I always have a problem actually getting the video on the ipod.

I have my .vob movie files on my drive, i convert the files to .mp4 with videora, and then itunes won't add them to the ipod.

is there a max file size, or am i just doing it wrong?? - Please email back.

any good way to conver "protected" files? that have trouble being converted?

ya but like...how do i get my movies onto my ipod..like...ive already downloaded videos and there in a file but the file wont transfer onto itunes..how can i do this for free?

I have no idea how to put the video on the 30 gig iPod. Can anyone explain it to me.. in english please?!

where do you go in iTunes to download movies???

I'm just as confused as you guys. I can play a video/movie on iTunes but I can't upload it onto my apple ipod. I'm curious if it has to be do with the file type. Mpeg, avi, rm or asx. Anyone got any ideas?

I don't know how to download movies but you can download t.v. shows.

Dudes, please.... if you haven't figured out how to donwload movies/dvd's directly to your Ipod, go to pqdvd.com , there you can get a program that converts DVD's directly to Ipod format where you can then put them into your Itunes library and load them to your Ipod and watch, I've already converted over 10 dvd's to ipod format to watch on my Ipod or connect to a computer and watch with Quicktime on the big screen thru my SVGA cable to TV.

in pqdvd.com are you supposed to recored the video, how exactly do you use it?

nvm i figured it out but my new question is the free version able to convert a whole movie?

You can get free iPod from this site

I no everone is asking this question, but how do u get a video on your ipod to get onto itunes

Has anyone heard of a software called " Hard Break / Brake Light" which allows you todownload DVDs to your iPod?

i just got my 30Gb video ipod on christmas and i guess everyone has the same problem i dont know how to download videos onto my ipod nor DVD's i dont even have a clue how can someone help me?

I can't upload videos onto itunes. I try and drag them onto itunes but it won't work. Do the videos have to be in a pacific format or something?

I am having trouble downloading music and videos...can anyone tell me where I might go to do so?

Shawnda

my goodness people, there is an online manual you can look at. first, yes the videos have to be a specific format, namely .mp4, .mov, and some others. you can download videora for free and it will convert almost anything to those formats.

after that, you must add those converted files to your itunes library, and drag and drop them into your ipod icon on the left.

if you want you can log on to the music store and download music and videos for $1.99 a piece.

Ok, it's pretty simple... no need to hemmorhage guys.

First, take your DVD and put it in your hard drive. Use a free program called DVD Decrypter to "rip" the movie to your hard drive (in the IFO MODE).

Once the file is on your hard drive somewhere (it will be a .VOB file), get the free program called Videora Ipod Converter (videora.com) and choose a method of conversion under the "Settings" tab.

It will take a while to convert the movie. Once it's converted, it will be a .MP4 file that you can open up in iTunes. Once in iTunes, transfer it right into the video iPod.

Hope that helps.

I have a problem~ DJ Dub your information was VERY helpful on how to get movies onto your ipod but i do everything and i even read on how to do it and everything and everything works but when i try to import it onto my ipod i know how but it says that it was not exported right and when i try to play the video itself, it says its not a movie file does anyone know what i should do? I NEED HELP!!!

if you want to put DVD videos onto the iPod video, you have to convert the format to .AVI or .MP4. i fouind .MP4 works better in that iPod and .AVI works (looks) better on the monitor/ tv

basically you can suck my willy! it tastes nice

I'm having a problem putting the viedos that I have on my playlist onto my ipod video. First I'd use the DVD decrypter to convert the videos and then vViedora to convert them to itunes. The movies would get on my playlist fine, but when I plug my ipod into my computer i get the message "Some of the songs in the iTunes library including "..." were not copied to the iPod because they cannot be played by this iPod."
I tried the "convert to mp3" button, but that doesn't do anything.

ok. i purchased an episode of LOST from the itunes music store, downloaded it, and it shows up in my itunes library. BUT IT WONT SHOW ON MY IPOD?!?! im so confused

go to ipod options at the bottom right of the screen. clik it. click the atomatically update. this will copy all file in your library to your ipod. believe me it took me about 2 hours of screwing with the software to get it right,,,,, tgen clik ok and....tada!
