I have been regularly receiving video tutorials from Addicted 2 Salsa and synching these to my iPod but recently I have been unable to do so. I overcame this problem in the past by making an ipod version or loading them on to iMovie and then sharing them

I have been regularly receiving video tutorials from Addicted 2 Salsa and synching these to my iPod but recently I have been unable to do so. I overcame this problem in the past by making an ipod version or loading them on to iMovie and then sharing them but this method no longer works. THere is no problem viewing them on my computer and everything else synchs okay to the iPod so what is going on and how can I overcome this problem?

iPod classic, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

What happens when you try to create the iPod or iPhone version from the Advanced drop down menu in iTunes?

Yes I have tried that - all that happens is that it produces an audio only version with the video vanishing.

Addicted 2 salsa is a highly regarded popular and respected podcast that provides tutorials for salsa dancers. Anthony Persaud and his partners provide a sequence of dance moves to follow and instruction. They are really handy to transfer to an iPod as on a dance evening they provide inspiration or reminders of how certain moves are performed. I believe they are in MPEG format but Anthony has been developing the format for iPhones, Apps for the iPod etc and I think the problem with the podacsts have developed from then. I cannot think of any reason why they just don't synch to my iPod any longer. I have no problem with the audio podcasts that I download and never had a problem in the past.

Double check to make sure podcasts are configured to sync to your device from under the iPod's Podcast configuration tab.

To access the Podcasts tab for your iPod, plug your iPod in and click on it from under theDevices section in the left hand pane of iTunes. This will bring you to the Summary tab. Along the top you should see a Podcasts tab, so go ahead and click on it. Here you can configure how and what podcasts sync to your iPod.

If you do make any changes to do this tab, make sure to hit the Apply button in the lower right hand corner to apply the update changes to your device.

Otherwise, are you getting any error messages when you sync your iPod Classic with iTunes?
