4. Click the arrow on the first icon at the bottom of the program window, and click "Add Files to List" from the shortcut menu.
5. Double-click the video file you want to add to your iPod Classic in the "Add Files to List" window to import it.
6. Press and release "Command" and "E" on your Macintosh keyboard to eject the iPod from the computer once the transfer is complete, or double-click the "My Computer" icon on your PC's desktop and right-click the iPod icon. Click "Eject" from the shortcut menu.
