How to use my MAC configurated iPod whith my work PC

I have an ibook at home, with an extensive iTunes library, which is configurated with my color screen iPod. At work I use my iPod to interview people and the problem is that we use PC/Windows at work... and I cant upload my memos/interviews on my work PC directly, but have to upload them on my iBook and them e-mail it to my work... not nice at all.
How can configurate my iPod to be able to talk both MAC and Windows???
Please enlight me! I'm most greatfull for all suggestions.

An iPod formatted for Mac won't run natively on a PC because the Windows OS does not support the HFS Plus file system and therefore will not see the drive. You can reformat your iPod on Windows if you want to use it on both platforms as Macs can read Windows formatting (I have seen posts where Windows iPods have been reported as not connecting but these tend to be the exception to the rule). Alternatively there are third party programs that will allow you to use a Mac formatted iPod on Windows, this is one for instance: XPlay 2

  • Using a Mac formatted ipod with windows itunes

    Any ideas how I can update my mac formatted ipod on windows based itunes without losing all of my music? Every time I connect onto my pc I just kept being told I need to restore factory settings, yet when I connect to my mac it's fine.
    Any help is greatly appreciated

    Macs can read Windows drives so you could restore and format the iPod on a PC then connect it back to the Mac and reload your songs. iTunes will allow you to use an iPod formatted for Windows on a Mac but Apple currently only fully supports using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac, in other words all future software updates for the iPod would have to be carried out in Windows to maintain the formatting. Alternatively there are third party programs that will allow you to use a Mac formatted iPod on Windows, this is one for instance gets good reviews. It's a commercial program so you'll have to purchase a license to use it:: XPlay 2

  • Using a mac formatted ipod on a PC iTunes

    My iPod is synchronised to my Mac at home but I want to be able to use it at work (PC environment) on iTunes on my PC. However, when I plug it in using a USB connector, it does not show on iTunes at all.
    Is this possible or is there a problem crossing between Mac formatted iPods and PC iTunes?
    any pointers are welcome - thanks.
    jamie

    Probably the easiest way to use an iPod on both Mac and Windows computers is to format the iPod (using iPod Updater) using the PC. This will force your iPod to use the Windows file system (FAT32) which both the Mac and PC can read from and write to without the help of additional software. Of course then all your software updates for the iPod will have to be done on Windows.

If you need to use a Mac (HFS+) formatted iPod on a Windows PC, you'll need to install some 3rd party software such as XPlay 2.0 (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.

  • How to use custom component configuration

    Hi Experts,
    For a standard webdynpro object I have created a new z component configuration by copying from existing one. In the standard there are already 2 existing component configuration.
    This webdynpro does not have any application created so I am not able to directly assign this component configuration.
    During run time in portal when I view the properties I can see a application for this webdynpro component and the standard component configuration being used.
    My question is how to use the z component configuration I have created in the webdynpro?

    Hi Srinivas
    I researched your problem. I hope the below code helps you. You could add the below code to wddoinit.
    DATA:  lo_api_controller       TYPE REF TO if_wd_component,
              lo_pers_manager      TYPE REF TO if_wd_personalization,
              ls_config_key           TYPE wdy_config_key.
               lo_api_controller = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
               lo_pers_manager = lo_api_controller->get_personalization_manager( ).
                     ls_config_key-config_id = 'ZTEST' .
                     lo_pers_manager->load_config_by_key( ls_config_key ).

  • ID: How to use the test Configuration tool

    Hi all,
           I have done one simple file2file scenario and it is working fine( source file is reaching the destination).

  • How to use the Dynamic Configuration Bean

    Hi experts,
    im currently doing a file to mail scenario.
    i want the name of the input file as the subject of the mail.
    i want to establish this using the Dynamic Configuration bean
    my first question is:
    key.1 <b>read</b> http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail THeaderSUBJECT
    value.1 message.messageID
    this reads the value of the message ID into the attribute THeaderSUBJECT
    but what does this do?
    key.1 <b>write</b> http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail THeaderSUBJECT
    value.1 message.messageID
    when i use this it has no effect atall.
    my second question.
    I have my input filename in the FileName attribute in Dynamic configuration how can i read it into THeaderSUBJECT attribute.
    Appreciate any suggestions.

    Hi Satish,
    Yep i know its possible via an udf in Message mapping but i dont have an MM in my scenario. Since im not parsing thru the input data since its an excel file, so im transferring the file using the following method
    /people/william.li/blog/2006/09/08/how-to-send-any-data-even-binary-through-xi-without-using-the-integration-repository
    and in this method if i include an MM it will give me a mapping exception.
    So i have to use this bean somehow and try to accomplish what we do in the udf.

    Really? Want to show me that button or setting that allows that? AFAIK, System Preferences->Security->General->is where you set that when the machine sleeps or screensaver activates. Accordingly, I'm only aware of a hot corner triggering those two options and the behavior remains the same in Lion, even though the prefPane's name is slightly changed.

  • How to use the MAC Keyboard

    Can anyone point me to a tutorial or posting which explains how to use the keyboard?
    I have an iMac (sep2009) with a wired keyboard including numeric keypad and there are keys that I just do not know how to use
    eg:
    How do I put FUNC LOCK on so that when I using Excel the F2 key becomes EDIT CELL rather than adjusting the brightness
    What do the keys below the F14 and F15 keys do? There is an angled arrow up and left and ne down and right. and there is an arrow up with two lines crossing it a,d another similar one down. What are we supposed to sue these for?
    Under the F16 key there is a box with a cross through it. What does that do?
    WHy are F5 and F6 blank?
    What does the big key on the very right bottom do?
    I would have thought that there would be a MAC101 guide to the keyboard but I cannot find it... Any help from out here?
    Many thanks

    System Preferences>Keyboard; Set it to use Function keys as F1, F2, etc.

    I just loaded the UK Apple store and compared the keyboards to the ones at the US store. I guess since you are so "international" over there, you get pictures instead of words. My guess would be Home, End, Page Up and Page Down
    Under the F16 key there is a box with a cross through it. What does that do?
    Clear key for the numeric keypad.
    WHy are F5 and F6 blank?
    No additional functions assigned to them.
    What does the big key on the very right bottom do?
    Enter key for the numeric keypad.
    I would have thought that there would be a MAC101 guide to the keyboard but I cannot find it... Any help from out here?
    I think Apple thinks based on where you live, you understand pictures instead of words. Probably cheaper to make one keyboard than ones for each language.
    Many thanks

  • How to tell which Mac the iPod was synced to?

    I recently found an old iPod classic from 2009.  The last time it was used was likely around 2013 and it works just fine.   I'd used the iPod on a few long flights and "favorited" a large number of songs that I'd like to preserve the ratings for.  I assume the best way is to resync the iPod but I can't recall which of my Macs this was synced to. 
    Is there some way to tell which Mac this iPod was synced with?
    Failing that, is there a recommended way to pull some of the metadata for songs I've rated off the iPod?
    Thanks
    MM

    Look in the serial number. It's the 4th and 5th digits. I believe week 38 and 39 are good. I have week 38 and have had no problems other than a few software glitches.
