Before I finally lose my patience and throw it through the window! Will somebody PLEASE tell me how to put cd's onto my I-POD? it's driving me nuts. I've wiped it twice and then somehow managed to put everything back on it.

 

All I want to do is be able to put cd's on and get rid of songs that I don't want anymore.

 

Please help!

Are you using itunes?

 

If so, you need to make sure the songs you don't want are unselected (ie don't have a tick next to them) and then when syncing your ipod you need to select in the 'music' tab that it should only sync selected songs.

 

Alternatively, if you have uploaded your CDs and made them all playlists then when syncing, just select the playlists you want on your ipod and nothing else.

 

Hope that's clear

 

Good Luck!

Sorry Lisa - cant help - mine went through the window six months ago!!

 

Bought a Creative Zen instead.

I do like my i-pod, I just find it frustrating! I've managed to copy a cd that I wanted onto a playlist - thanks lizinsa! Will persevere and let you know what happens!

My son's ipod ended up "through the window too". It just kept breaking down. He has a Walkman now which is great.

 

Sorry, that's not much help . I am just still cross with Apple.

Really surprised to read this - I'm on my second iPod, I love mine and have found it very easy to use through iTunes.

 

Sorry I can't offer much help lisa, as I am not very techie, I just follow the instructions on the iTunes page and its always worked for me.

 

You need Fred, I bet he will know the answer.

It wasn't that we found it difficult to use (I'm an untechnonumpty, if I say so myself!). It was more than it kept hanging for no apparent reason and even if we managed to get it running again (I used all the forums and the Apple website & became an expert on ipods and their problems ) it would do it again.

 

And this was a replacement ipod as the one I bought for my son's Christmas didn't work AT ALL, so it had to be sent back (losing the free engraving in the process ).

 

I loved the idea and the look of the ipod but their customer service was non-existent and, judging by the forums, there were an awful lot of people out there whose ipods were faulty.

I have an ipod shuffle so I'm probably not too much of a help to you.

 

Mind you Ipod shuffles are a lot less complicated than all the other models!

I have a shuffle and find it easy to use but it is fairly basic, kids bought it for me for xmas.

I'm glad it's not just me that's been driven mad by my i-pod. My main problem is that OH and me both use the same computer to update our ipods, so I end up with all his awful music on my i-pod, which I really don't want!!! I had a few other problems, and have now given up with it for a while.

[lisaroo2]

I've managed to put a couple of cd's onto mine this afternoon! I don't know how and probably couldn't do it again! Never mind...

I have both a shuffle for the gym and one of the 60GB video ipods which I love - I recently downloaded a converter program for converting video to MP4 (ipod) format so I can watch tv programs and films on it - is great for long journeys My 60GB one is a few years old now and I've never had a problem with it and always found itunes really easy to use. I just copy the CD to itunes and it adds it to my ipod automatically. My shuffle I have connected also and just manually add stuff to that by click and draging rather than having an automatic fill. This seems to work really well.

 

To Basset - if you hook up your ipod to the computer and change its settings so that it doesn't automatically fill yours up, you can keep a playlist of just your music and update just that so you dont get your OH's music also.

My MP3 player is a Samsung rather than an ipod, but it couldn't be easier to load the tracks I want onto it - even Rosie can do it, just have two windows open, one showing the tracks as stored on the computer, one showing the tracks stored ont he MP3 player, then just drag the tracks you want onto the player, or delete the ones you don't want.

Both ED and I have Zen's. Hers is bigger than mine and has a screen. She is working off it's cost though, so more time for me to listen to mine

I have an ancient Creative Zen, about the size of an old cassette walkman! But it's been brilliant and so sturdy, it still works after four years and being hit by a car, as well as being dropped about a million times I'll be sticking with Creative when I eventually upgrade.
