Buying iPod

I know I'm not up-to-date, coz I don't have iPod, and most of the poeple have one. Anyways I'm gonna buy iPod (actually i'm gonna get one for my b-day :)).
And it would be great if someone would tell me what's in the box. And about connecting iPod to TV by s-video.
Thankies

Ya the case is rather minimal, however I have found it is great for holding your earpods in rather than stuffing them loose in your pocket or backpack. So it is useful for that.
If you have a cable from a camcorder that has the headphone type (1/8th inch) style plug on one end (that goes into the iPod headphone jack) and then three RCA type plugs on the other end, that will work, except Apple played around with the colors, so yellow doesn't go to yellow, red doesn't go to red and white doesn't go to white.
See here for details...

Tried it on my iPod with a cable I got with my camcorder and it works a treat!

  • I want to buy ipod touch 4 (8GB) , but i dont know is that enough for me

    I want to buy ipod touch 4, my friends said i should buy 8GB one, but i dont know is 8GB enough for me to use. some people said that it only have 6.7GB for you to use, cause the ipod apps already used some of it. I want to have maybe 100 songs, some apps, pics, few games, 5-7 books, few online movies. For some of these, i would probably delete them and download new ones. So, any suggestion?? Please? I really want to buy it before this summer. but i dont want waste my money.

    I would opt for the 32 GB one. Many users have been disappointed when they purchased the 8 GB since they quickly filled it.
    Some apps can take 1 GB themselves. See the following for some other stirage useages:
    iTunes Store: Download times will vary

  • Should i buy ipod touch 5g now or wait?

    Should i buy ipod touch 5g now or wait? I read in here, many people said this model has many problems, frozen screens, titles songs are not line up in order, imessage can't send, etc.. what do you think?
    I can afford for the 32g, the first one i had was nano and i dont' want to waste and upset if it's not good as it should be. Or i should wait until September when the new one come out?

    There is no fifth-generation iPod touch at this time. The current units are still the forth-generation hardware.
    As to seeing issues here, that's what these forums are for, people with problems. Those millions who are having no problems have little incentive to post here, so you get a skewed viewpoint as to how prevalent any problems really are. It's rather like judging the overall health of a community only by visiting the local hospital. The reality is that you're most likely going to have no problems at all, though no one can guarantee that, of course.
    Anyway, it's up to you whether you wish to wait. None of us here know when Apple will release a new model of the iPod touch, nor even if they will, so your guess is as good as ours how long you might have to wait.
    Regards.

  • Should I buy iPod Touch 4g or wait for 5g ?

    I want to buy an iPod touch but I'm confused that whether I should buy iPod Touch 4g or wait for the 5g to come ? Please help. I would also like to know when is Ipod 5g likely to come ?

    No one knows when or if another iPod Touch will be produced. If anyone claims to know they're lying. Besides, speculating about future or unreleased products is against this support site's terms of use.
    For what it's worth the iPod Touch is amazing, and I'm sure you will enjoy many years of use. Every day that goes by waiting for a new one is a day you could have been enjoying yours.
    Hope this helps you decide!

  • I own an iPod Touch 4g. Now i'm planning to buy iPod Touch 5g. Is it possible for me to register the new one with existing Apple ID so that i can transfer the apps from my existing account to my new Ipod 5g?

    I own an iPod Touch 4g. Now i'm planning to buy iPod Touch 5g. Is it possible for me to register the new iPod with existing Apple ID so that i can transfer the apps from my existing account to my new Ipod 5g?

    There should definitely be no issue. You can register more than one Apple device with the same Apple ID and get the same apps on both devices without having to pay for the apps again.
    Alternatively, if you want all your settings to say the same, do a backup of your old iPod Touch and then whe you receive the new iPod, restore the backup on it and it'll save you the trouble from having to redownload everything.
    Cheers.

  • Planning to buy iPod Touch

    Hi, I've never had an iPod. I am planning to buy iPod Touch. I use Windows XP (Desktop PC) and MAC OS X Tiger (MacBook). I would like to know if is possible to use iPod with both OS or I'll have any problem every time I want to sync songs.
    Thank you.

    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 or MacDrive (which you can get from MediaFour Software). This will enable your Windows PC to read a Mac-formatted iPod.
    Btw, you'd be better posting any future questions about this model iPod in the iPod Touch forum.

  • DO NOT BUY IPODS FROM FUTURESHOP OR BEST BUY

    The warranty policy for both are ridiculous. They charge the same amount as Apple does. Get this, they don't even touch any ipods that need service for the first year. On top of that, any repairs that are made to the IPOD after the one year manufacturer's warranty will end once the IPOD is replaced once. They do not repair IPODs they simply have you pay $60-90 for a warranty that they hope you never use. You are better off getting the Apple Protection Plan for the same amount, and it covers 2 years and the warranty is transferred to any new IPODs for the remainder of the protection plan.

    You must've had a great sales man.
    "$50 buys me:
    - instant exchanges for the first 30 days at least (I bet my local store would go way beyond that)
    - they will repair or replace the item while the apple warranty is in effect as many times as needed (and if I'm not happy there is a chance they will simply exchange for a new one)
    - after the first year, they will replace the ipod once if needed "
    1) You have no chance at returning anything at Best Buy after 30 days. At any of the stores I've worked at they are super d*cks about returns. Best Buy is EXTREMELY competitive and hate margin loss (returns).
    2) Each time BBY has to repair something it will take at least 30 days (and up to 2 months during the holiday season). Think about that. If you have three problems with the iPod that's going to be a third of the year you're not eve going to have the thing. Also, they don't care if you're satisfied or not with the iPod. If a Geek Squad rep. sees that it works he'll make you take it back. Only the forth time you bring an item in for service will you get a new one (lemon law).
    3. Going back to the service issue -- After you bring an item in to be fixed after the manuf. warranty is up, you only have one chance to get it fixed. It takes 4 chances to get a new (service) item.
    Like I stated before -- if you buy any other type of MP3 player (other than an Apple based one) at BBY you won't have to deal with that whole service issue. Stick to Apple Care my friend.

  • I'm thinking about buying iPod Video, should i wait for a new iPod or?

    I was thinking about getting myself a Video iPod, but then i would hate it if i was to get one let's say this month and next month a new iPod will come out, so should i buy a Video or is there a new iPod coming out anytime soon?
    Thanks.

    Masna is someone who comes here to help out others with iPod problems and is to be applauded for that, not ridiculed.
    Unlike some people who come here to ask silly questions.
    And Marat Voznyuk, you've been here long enough to know that posting questions asking about future Apple hardware releases is against the forum terms of use. : )

  • Should I buy iPod touch 5 or iPhone 5?

    Okay, so I had an iPod touch 3 a couple of years ago, until the battery died and I decided to invest in an iPhone 4. Unfortunately, the screen was damaged on that, so I had to buy a new phone. I really wanted the iPhone 4S, until I realized that the Verizon version was not 4G. Now I have a droid razr maxx-and miss my iPhone!!! I really want the iPhone 5, but am not sure that $650 is worth it? Is it? Or should I use my mobile hotspot feature on my droid and make an iPod touch 5 like an iPhone??? Please help!!! By the way, my contract is up next August 2013.

    I'm a Verizon customer, and using your Droid as a hotspot for an iPod is just plain stupid.  The deal is, you get hammered if you go over your data limit.  We have the "Share Everything" plan which gives us unlimited text and talk, but we are limited to 6 giga bytes of data use.  If we go over that limit, Verizon will throttle the connection speed and charge for every thing over that 6 gigs.  NOT a good idea.
    Do yourself a favor:  Wait until your phone is due for an upgrade.  You won't have to pay full price for your phone.
    Or, if your phone decides to take a gravity assisted trip to the pavement......

  • Should I buy Ipod Touch 2 G. 16 gb...

    I have a question. Do you guys think it would be a good idea to buy a Ipod Touch, when I already have a Ipod Classic 80gb. I'm mostly thinking about buying it for all the great apps and games.

    I did exactly what you did. I had an 80Gb Ipod video (Gen5) then got a 32Gb ipod touch (gen1) and I love it. The touch interface is summat else and much better than the control wheel. You mite not be able to put as much music on but it just means you manage your collection a bit better.

    At least 32GB, as with any new electronic device, get the most advanced you can afford, you can't add any more space or features after you bought the device.
