How do i sync tv shows on my ipod video?

Ipod video trouble! help?



i purchased two south park episodes because im going on vacation and i wanted to have them to entertain me.



i purchased them and updated my ipod, but they didnt show up.



i tried checking the summary and the tv shows category, i changed it to download all tv shows, but still nothing.



i went to the tv shows library and everything is unclickable, i cant check the boxes...i cant play them...all i can do is right click and a few options come up...but nothing really helpful.



i tried going to get info, because usually you can change the settings there...but all the writing was a pale grey and was unchangeable...



im supposed to leave today and i cant figure this one out.can anyone tell me how to get them on my ipod?



i was told to convert them to mp4



but since i purchased them from the itunes store shouldnt they automatically work?



and even if i did convert them...how do i find them in my folders?



Answers:

tv shows purchased from itunes:



the next time your connect your ipod, make sure you choose the option to sync all songs/music videos/tv shows/movies etc. click the tabs associated with the item you%26#39;re concerned about. i.e., music, tv shows, movies, podcasts etc



tv shows you might%26#39;ve downloaded from limewire:



make sure you still have the file in an easily accessible folder on your local or external harddrive. add the file to your current library and make sure you see it in the movies section of the library. sync your ipod. if you still don%26#39;t see it, DON%26#39;T DISCONNECT THE iPOD, click the tabs "tv shows" and choose the option to %26#39;sync all tv shows.%26#39;



Suggestions:



-- that tv shows category, make sure its the one under the computer%26#39;s library and not the ipod. in the ipods library, the times appear a pale grey color. its regular color in the computer library.



-- double check you%26#39;ve click the option to sync all tv shows, then sync again.



-- if its still not there, call your local apple store and talk to a mac genius. they offer hands on help
