    The problem that I am experiancing is that I have purchased 2 videos from iTunes and when I try to play them, it says that I can only have 5 computers authorized to play my music, videos, etc. I think the other computers that are authorized are at myu school, and my personal computer is authorized too, but it's in the shop. My questions are

    Is there any way to increase the amount of coputers you can authorize?

    When I get my computer back, would I be able to put these episodes that I bought from the ITMS and put them on my USB memory key and transfer them to my computer, the one that is authorized?-Will they stiull play?

    Is there anyway to get these videos from the un-authorized computer onto my iPod Video, without it having to say "This computer is not authorized, you must un-authorize the other computers"(which are at school and its summer now so i cant go back)

    Any help is [bold]greatly[/bold] appreciated!

    Putting the file on the USB memory key and putting them back on the authorized computer will work, as long as it was originally one of the five authorized computers. This won't however get rid of the DRM that is preventing you from playing them. And no I don't believe you can get the unauthorized video from iTunes to your iPod. The only way I would think it possible is if you used a third party manager for your iPod to load the video, and even then it may not work.
