if u have a pc plug in your ipod and windows should recognise it. open windows media player and select any song u want and right click and choose add to sync list then click on sync tab and press start sync.

Or you can alternatively do it this way just lug in your
device and windoze should
recognise is as removable disk open it by double clicking it and drag any mp3 song of your choice into the
removable disk & if you use linux and have amorak cos it can copy in & off ipod. Cheerio

Or Better still use iTunes media player. It's got i-pod functionality.
Once ur itune[/b]s is up and running and ur [b]i-pod plugged in u are good to go. JUST DRAG & DROP

remember its a 2gb ipod with limited space so dragging might not be a good option cause u need to compress @esquire yamipod is also a good option

i Really appreciate you guys all.I will try all you Guys has said, but i want you to know that i had already use itunes to import some songs but they dont play when i play them on my Ipod.
Moreso, i was thinking of taking my desktop computer to the Cafe to download the itunes on it , will it work offline.Since i dont have internet connection in my room and Can i also use the Ipod as Flash drive to save documents, if yes how?And how can i activate the ipod for disk use?
happy sallah to you all.Thanks

once you plug in your ipod go to my computer you should see removable drive just drag and drop any file inside the removable drive which is your ipod. your ipod should come with a cd in the cd there should be a copy of itunes there and it works offline

Adewaleafolabi,
Can i use my Ipod to download music from sites?if u know of any site where i can download music on my ipod pls let me know.
Can i download on the ipod without using itunes, is that what u are saying?
Happy New Year

guseman,

You said something that solves your problem 50%. You asked if you need to take your computer to cafe and put it online - the answer to that question is yes. You see, iPODs work very well with i-Tunes and they are tightly integrated.

What you need to do is restore your iPOD to default settings and you need to be online to do this. Your iPOD should have a manual to help you with this, if not go to http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/family/ and select the type of problem that you are having.

You can import any songs from CDs to your iTunes library and copy them to your iPOD or you can get any MP3 songs into your i-tunes and copy them to your iPOD as well. I hope this helps you.

@Alexis,
thanks so much.
I just met one of the cafe owners and he said he cant allow me to bring my computer to his cafe. a Unless laptop
But i of my friend helped me to copy itne 4.1, version on my ipod, i will tyr to run it when i get home mybe it will work since the software CD does not accompany my ipod.
Thanks 4 ur concern. i will check the site again cos i have once been there.

I tried formatting thru dos it still the same error msg. I also tried upgrading the
firmware included in the ipod companion 2 no avail please help me out cos d 2 device has problem. Cheerio

Maybe There is something Wrong with ur ipod then.
After trying all these solutions? Try latest itunes 7.0.1.8
-Download it frm www.apple.com OR search the Net

ipod isn't what i can buy with my money. i just had another terrible experience with it. a friend came over with his 30 gb video ipod and asked me to sync music and some videos to it. it opened fine everything went well only for me to want to play the song there was none. plugged it back to my pc immediately window media started playing songs from the ipod. copied a picture file to it still the ipod claims nothing is on it.went to linux checked the ipod the files were there. i think i'd rather stick to a normal mp4 player than buy an ipod

Thanks to you all, my Ipod now works perfectly.I am so happy now.i seun ganni o. A good friend of mine help me out abit, but it now works.
@adefolabi,I geuss that u didnt convert the music to the right format b4 uploading it to your ipod,

i doubt if thats the problem cos i did it the way i did on a 512 ipod. it could be faulty though but i doubt. what about the picture i transferred and can't see the file on the ipod? what can be said about that?
