I have downloaded a few video podcasts and when I try to transfer them to my IPOD get an error that says that my IPOD doesn't support this video. I have a 5G IPOD connected to a PC. I am getting a new iMac when my income tax comes in. How do I correct this. Thanks.

When your on iTunes, right click (ctrl+click) on the Podcast you want on your iPod and click on the option to convert to iPod/iPhone.

Let me know if that works.

Yes, I've had this with a video podcast too; it's because of the file format the podcast is in. The right click, convert to iPod should work.

Right. If it's a video podcast, it should be MP4. Just like any other video you want to watch on an iPod.

Make sure on your iPod Video to go to "Videos" instead of "Music".
