Pre-sales question for IPOD (file extensions)

I would like to buy my mother a IPOD Nano 2gb for her upcoming birthday, but have a quick question on the way it formats the files on my PC.
Do I HAVE to have Itunes or any other software on my pc in order to place .mp3's on the IPOD?
If I have to have software in order to place songs on the IPOD, will it change anything on my PC, for an example, will it change any of my file extensions or file names of any of my music from .mp3 to .???
I have a DELL mp3 player and I love how I can just throw any song at it from Microsoft Window's File Explorer, and it'll play it.. I've never used or messed around with an ipod.
Thanks in advanced,
chris

Yes.

iTunes will not change the format of your music unless you explictly tell it to do so, or import unprotected WMA files into iTunes under Windows, in which case duplicates will be created in a format which is directly usable in iTunes. The Mac OS X version of iTunes will not handle WMA songs.

  • Pre-sales question (connecting iPod to vehicle)

    In 2002, I bought a refurbished first-generation 5-gigabyte hard-drive iPod. It still plays, but I'm concerned about the longevity of the battery. I would also like to carry something more compact, so I'm thinking about an iPod Nano.
    I just bought a used 2001 Chevy Astro LS AWD minivan from the U.S. gov't auction. It was a deal, and it has nice features and appointments. I am concerned about how I would connect my current iPod to the van's stereo-radio, as the Astro has no tape deck. (I have been using a cassette deck adaptor to plug my current iPod into car stereos since '02.)
    Are there kits available on the market for connecting an iPod Nano to a van like this, and keeping the Nano charged as well?

    Hi Xanadi,
    If your sound system has an "AUX IN" port on it then you can connect the iPod directly to it using an audio cable (same size as the headphones). This gives the best sound quality, I've found.
    If it doesn't then you may be stuck with an iTrip, or (if your new car has a tape deck), you can use the casette adaptor.
    Hope this helps,
    -Travis

  • FileDialog (filtering for certain file extensions)

    I have used JFileChooser in the past and was modifying my code to use FileDialog instead as it looks better, looks like the one used by every other Windows program and takes less code to get the job done. My
    question is how to filter for certain file extensions in FileDialog as you can in JFileChooser. I cannot seem to figure out how to, so any help would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
    P.S. Also if you know how to turn off all files like you can in JFileChooser, that would also be extremely helpful.

    Go to the JFileChooser tutorial at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/filechooser.html and skip to the section entitled "Filtering the List of Files". That sounds like it should answer your question.

  • Pre-Sales Questions: RV220W & SRP 547W

    Hi,
    Couple of pre-sales questions if you don't mind:
    1. Does the RV220W Wireless-N Network Security Firewall allow RADIUS authentication of wireless clients on the WLAN?
    2.  Does the Cisco SRP 547W Wireless Router allow wireless clients to tunnel into the WLAN using VPN?
    Thanks very much.

    Yes it supports all the functionality. For more detail you can see the below link

  • Pre-sales Questions

    What is the best way to contact Apple and get answers to pre-sale questions? Sometimes these forums work well, other times there is no response. When there is a response, is there a way one can determine it the responder is a representative from Apple?
    Is there an 800 number that one can call for pre-sales questions? Unfortunately the closest AppleStore is 60 miles from my home.

    1159/3605
    Hi jbmth,
    Responses you get here are from other users that volunteer to share their Apple knowledge.
    The quality is probably the best possible, since every time something goes wrong in one's advice, someone else would quickly jump in and offer corrections/additions.
    Determine representatives from Apple:
    They have a white apple in front of their names. You won't see an answer from an Apple employee more than once or twice a year here really.
    This is most a user-to-user forum.
    What kind of info do you need?
    Generally speaking, speculation about new products is quite very unwelcome by Apple standards.
    Here in the Discussions, it is simply forbidden by the Terms of Use.
    I hope this helps.

    When attempting a reinstall of iTunes, I cant delete the file C\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Internet Services\Shellstream.resources due to same error message as described above for iPod file; however i can't find it anywhere in the Task Manager

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Dreamweaver CC and Windows 8.1 - Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension

    Was running the latest version with no issues and then I loaded Office 2013 .. Now when I am in the remote site and try to double click on a .cfm file, I get a dialog box..Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension..
    I tried the support chat and they said Dreamweaver support was not available, try again later???
    So I thought I would reinstall the CC version and now I can see the Dreamweaver icon next to the files but still ... can't open the file..
    Any assistance would be appreciated?
    Leo

    The issue is only in Windows 8.x where when Dreamweaver CC is installed, it is not able to turn on the file type associations by default.  The workaround for now is to manually add the extensions both within Windows and then within Dreamweaver CC itself.
    Go to Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Set Your Default Programs and select Dreamweaver CC and then select 'Choose defaults for this program' and Select All or the extensions you want to open in Dreamweaver CC
    Start Dreamweaver CC and go to Edit > Preferences > File Types/Editors and add '.cfm .cfc' to the extensions and then add C:\Program Files (x86)\Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe then click on Apply and Close
    That should be it.

  • Using an * for all file extensions in a class selection parser

    Using iFS 1.1.9....
    I have successfully gotten a custom document class created using
    xml. I have used the following code to set up the parser, etc.
    If I use a specific file extension like txt the parser will
    upload the file as my custom class. However, if I use * for all
    file extensions the parser uploads all files as Document class.
    Here is what I am using:
    <?xml version='1.0' standalone = 'yes'?>
    <!--RegisterQualParser-->
    <PropertyBundle>
    <Update
    Reftype='ValueDefault'>ParserLookupbyfileExtension</Update>
    <Properties>
    <Property Action = 'add'>
    <Name>*</Name>
    <Value Datatyupe = 'String'>
    oracle.ifs.beans.parsers.ClassSelectionParser
    </Value>
    </Property>
    </Properties>
    </Propertybundle>
    When the above is uploaded I can go into iFS Manager and see
    that the parser has been registered with * as the file extention.
    I then upload this:
    <?xml version='1.0' standalone = 'yes'?>
    <!--RegisterCustomClass-->
    <PropertyBundle>
    <Update
    Reftype='ValueDefault'>IFS.PARSER.ObjectTypeLookpByFileExtension

    <Property Action = 'add'>
    <Name>*</Name>
    <Value Datatype='String'>QualDocument</Value>
    </Property>
    </Properties>
    </PropertyBundle>
    If I have txt or some other extension for the Name in place of
    the * and upload a document it will put the class as
    QualDocument. If I have the * it defaults to Document.
    Is there a way to have the parser make all uploaded documents
    QualDocument instead of Document without doing this for each and
    every possible file extension?
    Thanks.

  • DW CC: Can't find a valid editor for this file extension

    Hi,
    I am using dreamweaver cc for 1 month now. I have been having difficulty opening .asp file.
    In the File panel, when i click on one of the asp files, the error message is 'Can't find a valid editor for this file extension'.
    To solve this problem, I will right click on the file and choose Open with > Dreamweaver.
    However, this is very inconvenient. Someone pls help!

    You can configure that in your Operating System.  In my version of Windows XP, open any folder and  select TOOLS/FOLDER OPTIONS/FILE TYPES then scroll to the asp file type and select DW as the editor.

    Support for ColdFusion and other databases were removed from DWCC. You can add them back with the Legacy Extension, or adding a paid extension from DMX Zone...
    About 1/2 way down this page for the legacy extension: http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/
    It's a paid extension, but adds back a lot of the things that were removed...

  • Dreamweaver as custom editor for other file extensions

    So, I'm working on a project that requires me to work on some
    files with non-standard extensions. Namely, I have some text files
    that have a .cm extension, and I have some code files which have no
    extension at all. I am connecting to my file store via an FTP
    "site" set up in Dreamweaver.
    Under preferences->filetypes/editors, I set up ". .cm" for
    those two cases, and had selected "Dreamweaver" as the primary
    editor.
    The files open just fine, and I'm able to edit and save them,
    and when I do, the files get "PUT" back up to the FTP server as I
    want. However, what I've noticed is that the first time I edit one
    of those types of files, and save it, now, from then on in that
    session of Dreamweaver, any time I de-focus the window and then
    come back to it, the IDE initiates another PUT action of the files
    in question, even if the files are unchanged.
    However, if I go back into preferences, and remove the
    "Dreamweaver" as the primary editor for those two extensions, and
    leave that list blank, Dreamweaver still is able to open up the
    files as I want, but this weirdness with FTP putting and the
    window-focus goes away.
    Anyone have any idea why?

    This TechNote explains how to add file extensions to be
    recognized by DW.
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_16410
    Unfortunately, DW does not handle file with no file extension
    very well.

  • Syntax Highlighting for custom file extensions

    Hi everyone.
    I am currently working on a PHP project, and we are using
    *.thtml files for templates. The file isn't supported by
    Dreamweaver, as it's a fictional file extension. First I couldn't
    even open it with Dreamweaver, but after I added it in
    settings/file types, it worked.
    Now my question - how can I activate syntax highlighting for
    this filetype? It contains HTML and PHP, so it should work with the
    same highlighter as all the other file types do..
    Can someone help me out?
    Thanks.

  • Batch Rename with additional "."s, drops the file extension. Request for "Keep File Extension" option...

    I NEVER name files with extra "." s in the name. I realize that all OS's (even Windows) will recognize it, but I haven't gotten out the old mindset of 8.3 filenaming... Although I do use longer names. So... I was surprised to see that when I was renaming files as per a clients naming preference to add a period within the name, the file extension is removed.
    For example: 
    original file -  2014_10_31_1643.CR2   when batch renaming to "2014.31" + sequence, drops the "CR2" extension.
    but.... if I change it to "2014_31" + sequence, the ".CR2" remains
    Since adding multiple "." is a legitimate naming convention, shouldn't the file extension remain?  Or, possibly this could be made more flexible by adding a check box "Keep file extension"
    just a thought.

    Refer to this stackexchange article:
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/47319/how-can-i-make-os-x-recognize-new -file-extensions
    The finder will only select the filename only for "known" file types.
