How do I get my music from Windows to Ipod?

How can I get my music library easily onto the Itunes thingy... It's only accepting some music, one file or something. Or can I just upload the tunes directly to Ipod from Windows Media Player?

 

Import the music to iTunes by selecting the folder on your hard drive which contains the music.

 

I think I'm doing that, but Its only accepting one folder.

 

then maybe you should put all the music you want on your ipod into that one folder.

 

Yeah I sort of did some of that, but ... ehhhhhhhhh Im so feeble!

 

Is it true that you cannot just copy music from a hard drive or a cd to an ipod because of apple DRM ????
I read thats true with ipod cheapo but is it true with the ipod el expensivo

 

exactly^

 

The DRM restrictions for buying audio tracks via iTunes is something like 3 copies allowed. I think you can burn the track to an audio CD. The only disadvantage for normal users is if they use iTunes on a Windows-based machine. Eventually, the hdd will be formatted due to errors that can't be repaired. OSX doesn't have these issue's, so if you use a Mac you're pretty much safe.

The way around this is to burn the audio tracks to audio CD (not directly copying to CD-R), then import the music from the audio CD.

 

ahhhhhhhhhh I was thinking along those lines.


I did get some music to work on my kid's, but my friend's sounds like there is a frequency of sound missing.

 

You could try using a program called Floola: Link
I have used it, and it's worked great so far. The only problem is, you still may need to convert some of your music for it to work on the ipod.

I recently put a different OS on my ipod called RockBox: Link
It's pretty cool, I'm still getting used to it. The one thing I love about it is, you can drag-and-drop music to your ipod! And you don't need to convert music for it to work.

 

thanks


I'm letting my friend with a mac do it for now.

I will def look into that for my kids though.

 

It does it automatically, and if you want to put a cd in there, it comes up and you select it and select convert to aac. it'll be alright and i swear its not a currupt programme this itunes just bear with it and you'll be alright.
