i dont know how to transfer music to my ipod. It cost �300 and i'll be gutted if its a waste of money. I use limewire. does that make a difference???

First things first, u need to install "itunes" on your computer. This is a program that comes with your ipod on a cd. Once its installed, this becomes the base for all your songs that will go onto your ipod. When its installed open it, go to file, add file to library and go to where your limewire songs are kept, highlight the ones you want on your ipod and add them. once they're there all u have to do is connect your ipod using the white wire they give u and it should recognise that u've connected the ipod and tranfer the songs automatically. U might need to register the ipod details and that once connected but thats just straightforward following the screen instructions. merry xmas.

not always as simple as that fo3nix, my mp3 mobile can only use files i have converted to WMA, doesnt mention that in the instructions.

boobesque: then surely it is not an mp3 mobile ;)

but yes, fair comment. but my point is that the instruction book (computerised or not) does tell you how to transfer music.

debi2000: make sure your music is either mp3, aac (unprotected or apple protected), or unprotected wma. these are the only very common lossy formats apple will handle; but i suspect that is not a problem for you if you use limewire.

Thanks guys, to tell the truth, i was sooooo excited this morning when i got it, i was being really impatient when installing it. The instructions arent very detailed, but then again they dont have to be cos it was dead easy. we're up and running now. Thank god. Thanks again!!!!

Dont forget that you can put your cd's onto your ipod as well.
