Can i use my ipod like a phone?

I was wondering..instead of using an iPhone can i use and iPod as a phone?

Only if you use apps like skype for example, which would also require headphones with a microphone. You can make FaceTime calls to other iOS devices if you have an iPod 4G.
And you'll have to be connected to Wi-Fi, to be able to use these apps.

Correct. Any music you add via Explorer won't be playable.

I currently use 5 iPods with the same iTunes library, and it's very easy indeed.

Can u use the ipod touch without wifi like the phones do

can u use the ipod touch without wifi like the phones do

That depends on what you mean by "use".
Sure you can use it without wifi. Many apps do not require a connection to the Internet. The iPod app (or Music and Videos apps, I can never remember which the iPod Touch uses nowadays), for example.
However, iPod Touch devices do not include the "cell phone parts" - i.e. they cannot connect to cellular voice or data networks. Therefore, when an iPod Touch cannot connect to a wifi network, it has no way to transceive data with the Internet (short of Bluetooth, but that's a special case and I'm sure not what you're asking about).

With wifi available you can use an app like Skype for voice and video (4G only). There are also texting app like Text+.. There is also the native FaceTime and Messahes for iPods that use iOS 5. You need a wifi connection for all.

Can i use my ipod as phone?

I have read where people can use their ipod as a phone. Is this possible and if so how?

There is an app called Dingtone that can assign you a US phone number just like Pinger and SkypeIn of Skype. You could either purchase or earn credits through offerings.
Viber can make phone calls but doesn't have a phone number assigned. So incoming phone calls from regular phone line will not work.

*can i use the ipod as a hard drive to transfer files to macbook??*
Macs can read Windows formatting so if your iPod was first used and formatted on a PC you should have no issue with using it as a removable hard drive on the Mac: How to determine your iPod's disk format
Just for reference, iPods formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Mac formatted iPods can only be used on a PC that has a third party helper program such as XPlay or MacDrive installed.

Can I use my iPod to copy files from one PC to another?

I recently bought a Mac Powerbook and an iPod, and want to move all my personal stuff off my work laptop (an IBM ThinkPad) onto the Powerbook. Most of my files are photos, Word documents, excel files; only a few are music files.
When I bought the Powerbook, the guy in the Apple shop said I could use my iPod like a hard disk to copy all the stuff over - using a flash drive would take forever!
Was he right? If so, how do I do this? I can't seem to get past the fact that my iPod is now Mac formatted, which my IBM Thinkpad doesn't seem to like!

Can I use an IPod to back up Itunes, TV shows, and pics?

Can I use an IPod to back up the by Itunes, TV shows, and pics?Can I do a resotore off an IPOD? OS/X user...?
I have about 50GB or so of stuff I have purchased from Itunes and have not back it up yet. I looked into using DVD's and NAS devices, but I think I can also just get a new 80GB Ipod and use it as both a portable device and my main back up for my purchased stuff. Other files, like word and excel I back up using my .MAC I-disk, but the music and video files required much more space and bandwidth, so I have to back up localy.
If I have to do a restore, will I be able to restore off of an IPOD?

if you use the ipod in disk mode then, yes, you could use it to backup/restore files
but i'd never recommend using an ipod for this
great music player, but not something to rely on to keep your data safe
if you want a backup disk, get a dedicated external hard drive, it'll be way cheaper and a lot more reliable

Can I use the iPod Nano cable and AC power supply with the iPhone?

Just purchased my iPhone 3G. Phone was in my pocket and the AT&T clerk neglected to put the box with the computer cable in the bag with the other accessories.
Until I can pick it up, can I use my iPod Nano cable? The plug seems the same size but I don't want to break anything.
Also, there was no power supply in the box due to the recall. Can I use the iPod AC power supply I bought for the iPod? It is the white brick about 3" by 3" by 1" with a USB socket in the side.
Thank you for helping me with my start-up glitches.

Ps. When you do get the accessories, look for a green dot (on the side where the prongs of the plug come out). If there, fine; if not, your adapter is subject to the recently announced recall of ultracompact USB adapters.

Can we use our ipods with other music services?

I have not been able to get into the music store for close to 3 weeks now, I have been round and round with these discussion boards and articles and unanswered emails to Apple... I want to leave and go with rhapsody or someone else, BUT can I use my ipod with these sites or does it HAVE to be Itunes??

a service like itunes is subscripiton based is it not?
No, the iTunes Music Store is not a subscription. It's a single-time pay; once you buy a track, you own it forever. Subscription sites are ones where you pay every month (or whatever) to listen to the tracks they make available. If you stop paying, you lose access to all the tracks.
And if you pay for a song, why wouldnt you be able to burn it onto a cd, or do they just let you put it on your pc?
It depends on the site. Not all allow you to burn audio CDs, even if you pay outright for the track. None of the subscription services allow burning to audio CD.
And do you mean napster or bearshare sites?
Napster yes. Bearshare is a Gnutella client which is just another P2P network like Limewire, and similarly consists mostly of pirated tracks, viruses, worms and trojans.
helful as eveyone has been, none of these solutions has fixed the problem!
Again, sorry, but as I said, you didn't answer the most important questions. For instance, you said you were using a corporate network, but you never said whether or not you'd addressed the issue with your network administrators, something that Toonz asked you two or three times. If your company's firewall is blocking the addresses and ports needed to connect to the iTMS, there's nothing you nor Apple can do to fix the problem.

Water + electronics do not mix. Something was damaged insode, and the logic board may be corroding as is.
Take it to a Genius Bar for an evaluation and repair estimate.
This is accidental damage and not covered by warranty.
