Yep thats true... but it gets complicated how u actually get the music on.. Either by Sync or by copy and paste and Itunes can get very complicated..

I thought I'd saved those PMs to and from Luke re the iPod, but discover I'd deleted them. I've forgotten now what the obstacle seemed to be...this was last year ...maybe someone here when she/he has a minute could describe step by step what you do once you have it and are ready to download (upload?) to the iPod...I'd appreciate it...

when you have purchased the ipod, it will come with a disk in which you have to put into your computer and install the software (itunes) when all is done you will be able to import your music by file add file from and select your music from file.. optionally you can buy and download the music from the itunes store 79 p ish a track... then you can connect your ipod and there should be some onscreen instrusctions on what to do to setup your ipod.. then you should be able to 'sync' your ipod which will basically transfer all your music to your ipod.

That should be it.. i don't know if thats exactly how you do it as i got my ipod ages ago and installed it but its along those kind of lines

OKaay, Tom. that doesn't sound too bad! Maybe I'll get my nerve up (you know only too well how skittish I am about trying new things on the computer!!) and come into the new world of music. What's the least complicated, fewest bells-and-whistles model of iPod?

No not in the near future Eileen but I was following your chat on here and just wondered if it was necessary to have Broadband as I'm sure you said you didn't have it... I think you should go for your Ipod, have confidence...remember how you were scared of Firefox at one time You can do it Eileen if you set your mind to it, I know you can

[dandysmom]

Lord yes, Mags, I was really nervous about Firefox, and then about having to install some software to use my new camera...I am such a wimp! But did manage to do both of them and so very glad I did. It would be nice to have just your favorite music on an iPod to listen to...I hate earphones, would use it with speakers in the house...I always have music on. the radio or CDs. Maybe I'll go on line after dinner and do a little research.......the more you know about something the less scary it is.....
