About The_MoUsY_spell_checker

I first signed up because I saw really simple computer questions with no answers, and I just had to answer them. Today, my column still has more answers to questions about computers than anything else, but feel free to ask about anything. I can follow up on questions too.

I have been the featured columnist on 16 October 2005, 01 May 2006, 18 December 2007, 12 July 2008, 02 February 2009, 08 March 2009, 24 May 2009, 29 September 2009, 12 November 2009, 05 January 2010, 06 January 2010, and 26 April 2010.

By the way, here's a Facebook group for Advicenators users: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=3174690640

I just got a new Ipod. Its a 3rd generation nano type. I have a question about it, considering that I've never had an ipod that can hold videos too.

Is it possible to take videos off the internet (videos like on youtube) and place them on your ipod?

If so, how??

The 3rd generation iPod Nano can play all types of videos that can be played on the QuickTime player. That does NOT include the videos from YouTube (which are in .flv format).

However, you can convert them into .avi format, which CAN be played on the 3rd generation iPod Nano.

There are many programs available that can do this.

Here's a free one:
