still more ipod questions!

[Bellatrix]

I think you do, yeah.

[Stellata]

Ok. I'll have a proper look in a bit. I'm going to sort this today.

You just bring up itunes... you can click n drag the music files to it, it will sync. If it can't sync it will tell you its the wrong format etc....

I recomend insurance. I have an 8o gig... I've had it 4 years. First couple times my ipod would drop like a tiny fall to the floor, n stop working. I had insurance got refurbished, happened about 5 times before I got a ipod that could actually take a beating. And if you turn off your ipod setting to auto sync to itunes, then you can plug it up to your friends computer n get their music to without deleting yours. If you don't do that setting n try to sync to a friends comp, it will delete everything you put on it an just have whatever they had on their computer.

But I've been informed zune is a better mp3 player, because its not apple. I personally like my ipod, but zune you can be wireless n still do whatever n things like xboxs n computers will detect them without chords.

Have fun.

Edit-ii personally have never bought a thing off itunes so idk about that. I just rip from cd's or torrent. I know its wrong to torrent blabla, but if you like what you torrent its courteousy(sp?) To go buy it after. A way of sampling if you will.

K now have fun.
Btjunkie.org/mininova.org or they .com's I don't remember.

Thank you. :)

All is synched for now. Just waiting for it to charge up now. *yawn*

[Stellata]

It's a 4th gen. shuffle. Does it have to be switched on when I charge it? Am trying both, but Google didn't say.

Is it better to use a mains charger, as charging it off my laptop [when plugged in of course] is taking ages...

[Bellatrix]

^ Shouldn't make any difference. I've never noticed on anyways. I tend to plug in and leave over night.

[Stellata]

I usually do that with my phone [which is not an i anything!]
I'll try and get the mains charger asap.

[effervescence]

I use a mains charger. And I think you can leave it off to charge it, there should be a sign that it's charging though. My mains charger has a light that comes on when it's charging.

[Dreaming.]

I haven't noticed any difference between a phone and ipod charger - but it depends how happy you are leaving your computer on overnight (I never switch mine off so it's fine leaving it on overnight); do whatever works for you :)

Starting to enjoy it?

[Stellata]

Yes, it's amazing!

Thanks for the info, both of you.

QUESTION RE BACKING UP ITUNES - I got some CDs to back up my itunes library. But I've run into a problem. In the instructions it says there's a 'back up to CD' option in the Library menu. But I have no such thing. Help! I'm on Windows 7, and have whatever the latest version of itunes is. Thanks.

[Stellata]

Ok, found they deleted that option. Bleh. Am Googling, but anyone with helpful info would be appreciated.
