ITunes and the PR, Tech Advice

[Queen Victoria]

The PR has had a MAJOR meltdown over ITunes.  She bought a used IPod Nano in her shopping spree in August.  She wanted to download a TV series to the IPod.  I paid for the series and downloaded them to her computer and IPod.  She said the shows were downloaded to the IPod, so I believe her.  Somehow she restored/deleted/whatever all the episodes from the IPod.  Nothing else was deleted on the IPod.

How do I download the episodes from the computer to the IPod? 
For future reference, can we download/copy things from a DVD to the IPod?

I am wondering why she wants to watch a tv series on an iPod Nano. Those screens are tiny - I know because I have one.

I am bad with this technology so I can't help, I am sorry. All I know how to do is download music from iTunes onto my iPod and even then it doesn't work every time. I wanted to get rid of one or two songs from my iPod not long ago and accidentally wiped the whole thing.

If you go on her computer and sign into itunes with the account you used for downloading them, there should be a link to access your purchases and you can re-download them if they aren't still on the computer. Then you need to sync it to the computer again to transfer them again to the nano.

I wish I could walk you through this better, but I no longer have itunes since the kid no longer has his ipod. (it became the storage device for the bar's karaoke music when his dad bought him his new phone).

@ renaeden - I don't see the sense of it either.  She said it was because she wanted to watch the shows when I'm working this week and PA will tell her to turn the volume down if she watches it on her computer.  Evidently the earphone jack slips out if she gets too active while listening.

@ Icequeen - I'm going to print out and keep your post.  Even though she functions on a 9 y/o level she somehow managed to get everything downloaded again today in super fast time and is now happy as a lark.  All I can do is shake my head in bewilderment.
