Anyone Have IPOD Nano?

[Chris5]

Ok this is for anyone who has a nano...
I am a first time user, just got it home tonight opened the box and started to read the instructions,...
Problem is i dont understand this maybe you can help: And no i am not like tech dummy just confused about this explanation

Step 3:
Connect Ipod Nano to USB 2.0 port on your comp with included cable...Ok got it

Note: The port on your keyboard will not provide enough power, do not use it to connect your Ipod Nano....

Isnt that the same as saying do not connect to usb or is there another port on the keyboard that i am unaware of?

Hmmmmm USB wont run the ipod I think. You need a 2.0 in order for the ipod to charge through the computer.

Ink should jump in here..

The Mac keyboard USB is not powered, they meant for you to connect it to the your Mac directly or a powered USB port like a hub.

Cool so for us Non Mac users we're good than....
But that kinda sux no that the only way intitially to charge is through the comp unless i go buy an external charger?

Mac keyboard is powered, but not enough. 1.0 i think. Enough for a mouse or Compact flash reader.

It charges up pretty fast, but yeah that stinks how they don't give you a charger now.

 

[yessongs]

Its not only a charger, its how you put music into the ipod

Ok Last thing.....

Ok I got one final question and than this thread is done, unless you guys still wanna chat ipod lol ...

It updated all my songs into the pod but it also threw in the default recently played folder from itunes that i do not want in my ipod....

Question is in itunes i open up the ipod when it shows up and all my folders are there and when i right click the folder i want to delete there isnt an option....
Only options include, open, update, eject, ipod options or reset warnings....How do you delete a folder from showing up in your ipod? when its already been put in your ipod....

 

[yessongs]

You have to set it so it doesn't update automatically when you plug in your ipod.
In itunes you should see your ipod open it and trash what you dont want. MAYBE im not sure i use a mac

...i dont knoW how it iS on the PC, but on my mAc, i caN simPly delete a folder from the iPod (when it shoWs up in iTunes) by simPly choosing it and pressing DELETE aLso helpS when you set the Pod to 'Enable Disk Use' :cool3:

 

[Chris5]

Never Mind....

Never mind figured it out you have to set the options to manually adjust playlists so it doesnt automatically just copy what it sees....in auto mode you cannot delete folders already put in...only in manual mode for those interested =)
