If you have some awesome WMV (windows media) videos on your Mac, either downloaded from the Internet or shared from a PC, you might want to put them on your mobile device, say iPod touch 4G, iPhone 4, for playback at any time and anywhere, right? To transfer WMV to iPod/iPhone on Mac, you need to change WMV format to an iPod/iPhone compatible format, like MP4 firstly, because iPod does not support WMV format.
In order to achieve your goal easily, you can adopt iSkysoft Video Converter for Mac for help. It not only can convert WMV to iPod/iPhone on Mac, but also provides presets for iPod and iPhone(Almost all kind of models are included). Here are the steps to operate it.
What you need?

How to convert WMV to iPod on Mac OS X (Lion included)
Add WMV videos to the program
Drag & drop WMV files to the program directly. Or go to the "File" menu, choose "Add Video/Audio files" to locate the WMV files you want to add. To watch several small video clips on iPod/iPhonw without pause, please tick "Merge into One File".
Select an output format
Now you can go to the format drop-down list, choose the video format for iPod touch (the iPod touch 4G included), iPod nano, iPod classic. Among these video formats, MP4 and MOV are better than other video format. For Apple devices, MOV is the best choice. MP4 is not only supported by Apple devices, but also supported by Windwos computer, almost all kinds of general phones and smartphone as well as nameless video players.
Of course, to fit the target videos on devices perfectly, I suggest you choose the preconfigured devices as the output format. The video settings are optimized beforehand.
Have several WMV files and want to combine all of them? Just check "Merge into one output file"!
This WMV iPod Mac app allows you to extract audio like MP3, AAC, etc. from WMV files on Mac for iPod shuffle, iPod classic, etc.
