Re: ipodz help

yeah i know, i'm just a bit cautious. wouldn't you think some of the brainier people round here might help us out but ooooh no, too busy having lives

Kirstie's sister bought one in the states at new year and it worked no problem.

Ipods needs iTunes, thats why they suck. Get an i-river.

eh, whats the difference? i'm very numb when it comes to this shit

Re: ipodz help

My understanding is this - ipods you have to use itunes, and unless you change settings you can only use your version of itunes to copy to your ipod. With an i-river you just drag and drop files in windows explorer, on any pc. Or you can bypass the PC and record straight from any digital output.

Bigger nerds than I could correct me on all this though.

Ephpod will work on anything from Win98SE upwards, depending on a few other things. Loads of FAQs and guides on how to set it up etc

You can get plugins for winamp that will enable you to transfer files to your ipod and im pretty sure there are a few other's.

Re: ipodz help

You don't need iTunes for the iPod (although this is the easiest route to take). There's a few other options. Your best bet is to have a trawl through the forums on www.ilounge.com. I used to use anapod explorer to do everything I needed to do on Windows as it did far more than iTunes as regards searching and stuff. I'm pretty sure you can just drag and drop stuff from windows explorer too, although I think that may mess up the internal database.

Nowadays I'm on Linux and there's a load of ipod stuff you can get, although I find that I only ever write to my ipod every few months recently so I haven't really used any of these apps that much.

Re: ipodz help

xplay software is pretty good for an itunes alternative. makes your ipod work with windows explorer, much the same as iriver

itunes is actually fine though. its only major drawback is not being able transfer music from the ipod *back* to your pc (to prevent people copying their music onto other peoples machines) but you can easily get around that with podutil or copypod or somesuch. itunes is pretty too
