Managing Videos Manually Setting iTunes to let you manage iPod nano manually gives you the most flexibility for managing videos on iPod nano. You can add and remove movies, TV shows, and other items individually. You can also add videos from multiple computers to iPod nano without removing videos already on iPod nano. See "Managing iPod nano Manually" on page 24. Adding Video Podcasts to iPod nano You add video podcasts to iPod nano the same way you add other podcasts (see page 25). If a podcast has a video component, the video plays when you choose it from Podcasts. If you set iTunes to manage movies and TV shows manually, you can reset iTunes later to sync them automatically. If you set iTunes to sync automatically after you've been manually managing iPod nano, you lose any items on iPod nano that aren't part of your iTunes library. To reset iTunes to sync all movies automatically on iPod nano: 1 In iTunes, select iPod nano in the source list and click the Movies tab. 2 Select "Sync movies" and then select "All movies." 3 Click Apply. Note: If "Only sync checked items" is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only items that are checked in your Movies and other libraries. To reset iTunes to sync all TV shows automatically on iPod nano: 1 In iTunes, select iPod nano in the source list and click the TV Shows tab. 2 Select "Sync ... episodes" and choose "all" from the pop-up menu. 3 Select "All TV shows." 4 Click Apply. Note: If "Only sync checked items" is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only items that are checked in your TV Shows and other libraries. Viewing and Listening to Videos You can view and listen to videos on iPod nano. If you have an AV cable from Apple (available separately at www.apple.com/ipodstore), you can watch videos from iPod nano on TV. Chapter 3 Video Features 37
