Geoid Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Right, first of all delete all the media players you have on your computer apart from RealPlayer and Windows Media Player, then download VLC and iTunes. Yes you can get music from iTunes and from CDs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 I think they are the only two I have, but I would have to check the kids haven't downloaded more... you never can be sure with them. edited to say I have found 'quicktime' player whats that??

Geoid Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Keep quicktime, it can be useful. Since you dont have many media players just download iTunes - www.apple.com/uk/itunes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffyknickers Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Congratulations on your new purchase - are you now going to be ripping the postmans hand off every morning waiting for it?! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 well I wish I would be here but it will probably arrive when I am at work, so I will have to go back to the post office to collect it. It IS being sent special delivery though, so it should be safe enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Why didn't you get it sent to work? There is a change button near your address when you are going to pay for it, just click add new address and put your home phone number in the telephone bit.

Cooks Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 I only work mornings Fred, so it would be my luck I would change it and they would deliver in the afternoon (I live in a village, our post comes whenever they feel like it) good thinking though. He's posting it today.. woohooo!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenuk99 Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Oh congrats on the ipod and good luck for the race , it really makes a difference when you have something to keep you going. I did the manchester 10k a few years ago and loved my ipod and being able to track how far I had run when training. I wanted to be really cheeky and continue you thread with an ipod question for my dad and maybe direct it towards Fred the resident expert. My dad is running the 10kthis year and has the nike trainers and also wants to get an ipod to go with them but he wants to get something with a bigger memory maybe nearer the 80 mark. What can you suggest that will go with the nike+ gear? Thanks for the help Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 thanks for your support I bought a nike sensor yesterday off ebay, so I am all set, I am currently charging my ipod. how I will find my way around this is going to be a mystery LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
