iTunes home videos won't transfer to iPod nano 7th gen?

I have four videos I want to transfer, the format is correct and yet whenever I try to sync them to my iPod nano 7th gen, nothing happens. Occasionally just one will go on, but that's it. How do I solve this?!?!😠

iPod nano, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

Hello maddisonem,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.


From your post I understand that videos in your iTunes Home Videos section are not syncing over to your iPod nano. To start troubleshooting this issue, I'd like you to please create an iPod version of those videos as shown below.


Mobile Devices:

  • Video content purchased from the iTunes Store.
  • Videos that have been shared to iTunes using QuickTime Player (Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard).
  • Videos that have been re-encoded for iPod with QuickTime 7 Pro.
  • Videos that have been re-encoded for iPod with iMovie, Final Cut Pro, and others. Refer to Exporting a movie from iMovie HD to iPod for an iMovie HD tutorial.
  • Video Podcasts that have been created for mobile devices.
  • Video files after using the iTunes File > Create New Version > Create iPod or iPhone version option.
  • Video files after using the iTunes File > Create New Version > Create iPad or AppleTV version option (iPad and AppleTV only).
  • See below for detailed movie specifications.
  • iTunes Store Movie Rentals (Requires iTunes 9 or later).
