First, make sure you have iTunes on your computer. Open it up and insert your CD of music. iTunes should pop up a little window asking you if you want to import the songs. Once you tell it to go ahead, it will take the songs from the CD, convert them into the format the iPod uses and save to your computer. Then, you can hook up your iPod and sync your music to it. Hope this helps.

If you're using iTunes just plug the iPod in and load the CD and it'll ask you if you want to import the CD click on the button that says yes it will import the CD into your iPod music online and also loaded into your iTunes music library I hope this helps

I just spoke with an Apple rep as I am also frustrated with Cover Flow. He said to: (1) plug my ipod into my computer / iTunes(2) go to my nano's Summary page (where you can see the storage space or refresh the unit, etc)(3) click on the Music tab(4) uncheck Display Artwork-- I hope that helps!

Call up Itunes. Insert CD into the CD drive. Itunes will ask if you want to import the CD. You answer yes and Itunes will copy the CD. Next step, attach your IPOD to the computer and Itunes should automatically sync the CD to your IPOD. A very easy process.

Sorry, but don't know what you mean...I am a 63 year old swimmer with very basic tech knowledge. I just know that my previous swim unit was an MP3 player formate and much harder to download. All I do with this unit is connect it to my computer (Macbook Air) and download what I want. Just like any other I-Pod

For me it's a 3 step process ... Cassette to Flash drive, Flash to computer, computer to music CD. So, for you the last step is computer to ipod.

thank you so much i have taken all the negative aspects into consideration and as soon as i get enough money i am going to get the 250gb archos 5. even though it has all these glitches with the beta i still think it is the best thing for me because the zune and ipod are just not enough. one more thing do you or anyone else for that matter know if the archos 5 is going to be compatible with the 3.5g connection add on or is it only the archos 5g? if someone can give any info regarding this topic it is most deeply appreciated.

Yeah, personally I can't imagine trying to use a shuffle for books or podcasts even. I also had a second gen shuffle die on my in only a few weeks. IMO you really want at least a nano.

Actually, that is why I returned it an got one with a CD player. At first, I thought that I could just place my CD's into Itunes, and then put them onto an SD card and it would work the same. However, they needed to be transferred from the new mp4 format to mp3. When that was all said and done, it didnt even work. So, I do not know honestly, as I was so frustrated by reading that they wanted me to buy all of their SD cards and I wasnt having any luck. I would recommend just returning it and getting one with a CD player, or if you have an ipod or iphone-burn your CD's into Itunes and then sync them to your device so that you can play them from that.

Hey - I too am in Birgitta's position, trying to decide whether I should stick with iPods or go over to Zune. I currently own a iPod Mini and did not like how the battery went bad and now can only be played once before the iPod says that the battery is low and goes out. I am trying to decide whether to get a 80G Zune or an 80G iPod classic. My main question is - being an iPod owner, I have put so much time into my iTunes organizing it, putting in cover art, etc.If I was to buy a Zune, can I get everything out of the iTunes, including cover art?thanks

I wasnt for sure what you mean but if you have a Icloud account then what you have to do is if you dont already have a apple itunes account make one. Then sync the cloud with ur itunes its very easy then synce your new Ipod nano 2nd gen my personal favorite I have 5 of them to your Itunes account then drag the songs you want into your Ipod nano its simple I hope I answered your question feel free to email me with any more questions at. dee.lindsay327@gmail.com. Thank you

I'll give that a shot. I've noticed that they only claim to support the 5th gen and newer Nano, as well as the iPhone/iTouch. I was using a 4th gen Nano and an old classic (at that time just called the iPod). Now I have a 5th gen Nano, and it seems to work? I'll report back after more testing.

Great Queston! My Wife gave me an Ipod for Christmas, I have around 1,000 cd's, I've almost loaded all of them on my computer. My Ipod is less than half full, my computer is maxed! I want to load more!

We have MP3s now so I just dowload from Lime wire to my Library on my computer so with the Ipod you go from Limewire to Itunes Library???? Or is there 3 steps with the Ipod? Limewire then Itunes then your computers music Library???

es open your door, put In the CD and once you have your Intunes account set up It open Itunes and ask you "DO YOU WANT TO DOWNLOAD THE DISK" Well If you want the entire CD In your Itunes say yes. IF NOT and want a single or 2 off the cd? Say no , then slide just the tracks you want Into where It says "Music" on the top left on the Itunes page. And you only use space for the tracks you really want In there. Itunes Is VERY user friendly.

Hello Lindsay, Don't feel bad about not knowing anything about these electronic devices, if you don't you use them you would have no reason to know anything about them. Let me start by addressing the question at hand of playing games. The version that you have selected, the nano, does not have any games available for it. This version of an ipod would not work for what you need. That being said, the version that you would need will need to have these things in its description or even title, "TOUCH." This means it'd be for a version of ipod that you operate by touching the screen the same as you would with a smart phone. Also, you would need one that is any of the following Generations. 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 7th. The best way to look at these is like cars. Each year the newest model will come out and it just improves on the previous years model. For an Ipod, what that generally means is more storage space on the device and they tend to get smaller and sleeker. These devices do not come with the games. To actually get games on the device, you will need to download from the itunes store online. Remember you do not want a Nano, and it has to be a "touch" version of the generations that we mentioned. We hope this helps and please feel free to ask any other questions!
