Some Ipod Questions ?

[CB.Mike-D]

So I havn't had an ipod for awhile now and I just recently got an Ipod video classic from one of my buddies and I have a question for those who know alittle bit about them:

I want to keep some of his songs on the Ipod, can it be done cause I heard that once I plug it into my computer all the songs will be deleted ?

[CB.Mike-D]

Ohh and now Im just finding out that the Ipod was used on a mac and I have windows.

There are ways to keep your music I used to just rip them off my ipod using some software (google some stuff up) and then just add them to my library.

And I don't think there is a difference between syncing with a mac and pc music wise (I think if you had a touch you'd have some issues with specific things like I think mobileme?)

There's software online that let's you transfer from ipod to computer just search "transfer music from ipod to computer" in google and you should find it.

Alright Ill try to look for some programs and drift when I connect the Ipod to my computer and open itunes its says that *the Ipod was formatted using a mac please reformat it for use on windows*

[CB.Mike-D]

And now Ive tried three extractor softwares and none of them can even find the Ipod I guess Im going to have to reformat it.

Can anyone give me some help Ive looked into macdrive and mac opener but you have to pay, any free substitutes out there ?

XPlay by MediaFour will read the ipod on a pc even though it is formatted for mac.

Worked perfectly thank-you!!!

Ohh also lets say I wanted to leave my Ipod in my car, and take it out only to add more songs and the temperature would probably drop below 0 degrees every night since its almost winter.

Would the Ipod be fine ?

I left an ipod classic in my car for four years straight before it crapped out on me. I live in Missouri so were talking swealtering summers and freezing winters. It becomes noticably slower in the wintertime though.

I couldn't imagine anything happening though but like you said it will get slower.
