Apple mini Ipod

[chrisj]

Yes it should be compatable with your Pc, the thing to watch out for is the charger, as this
would be a USA one and not ~English,

If you don't already have a UKtoUS transformer, there is a neat little universal plug system sold as an accessory by Apple. I've seen cheaper options but it does purport to have worldwide plug options.

5th August is our date for a re-visit to Orlando (last time there was 1996).

I was thinking about buying a mini Ipod (MP3 player) when there (they won't be relased in the UK until late July).

Anyone know of stores that sell this sort of thing (the equivalent to Dixons in the UK) in Orlando area.

many thanks

We have 4 ipods the 5 gig, 10 gig and 2 x 20 gig, for the extra $'s I would get the full size ipod as opposed to the mini, they look pretty but don't hold anywhere near the amount of songs they say they will.

They are fab though!!

Hi All,
slight tangent but maybe someone can help; I've lost all data on my PC including all music. Is there a way of transfering the music on my IPOD back to PC ( Windows not apple)?

thanks

My hubby recommends you go to the apple discussions page

http://discussions.info.apple.com/

and post a message you will get lots of replies. We use our iPods with Mac computers and you can transfer music FROM iPod TO computer - only by using 3rd party software. Whether you can do it with Windows I don't know, but probably. Again, you will need to download some software(free) that will enable you to do it. The iPod discussions page will no doubt be the answer to your search.

Not sure exactly how I-Pods work, but presume that when connected to your PC it appears in Windows Explorer as a removable hard drive with full file and directory listings.

If so, you should be able to move the files from the I-Pod back to your hard drive just like moving files around your PC.

So effectively, you're dragging them from your I-Pod and dropping them into your PC's hard drive.

Hope this helps.

Great if it worked like that but it doesn't I'm afraid. The files are hidden on purpose due to copyright restrictions etc. That's why you need extra software to get round this. There's lots of it available for Macs but I don't know if there is any for Windows. I would imagine there is. Go to www.ipodlounge.com for exactly what the site says on the tin!
