Question

how do i delete my ipod nano second gen info, and upload my 3rd gen
my 3rd gen isn't being recognized by anything on my computer, not by the hardware thing, microsoft, or itunes.
when i plug in my old ipod, the sync menu comes up and that whole list and what not, but nothing happens when i plug in my 3rd gen, isnt it suspossed to automatically give me new information and be able to sync music?
how do i delete the second gen nano from the computer so its space will be free and it will actually recognize my 3rd gen

Hi all, I've got some questions on the new model.
1. Does it supply 5.1 sound from Netflix? My current BR player does not and it aggrevates me! 
Surprised your Blu Ray player won't give 5.1 sound - I would assume there's a setting to enable this somewhere over optical or in HDMI settings.
Fairly certain Netflix give 5.1 on compatible movies - I'll check.

2. Will It work with iTunes in the same way that my current one does? IOW, I've got music, photos, and various videos (mostly not originally from iTunes) and I can play them on the Apple TV.
It will stream compatible itunes content as well as the ATV1 did if not better (it had sync and stream modes).
These items are accessed under the Computers icon of the icon driven interface.
Photos is probably a bit less flexible but you can certainly stream them.

I do realize that absent it's own hard drive my iMac will be serving up the content wirelessly and that concerns me somewhat in terms of HD stress and possbile buffering issues.
I had this concern with my old iMac - in practice I wouldn't worry too much - but if it is a concern get a good capacity USB external drive and put your iTunes media there - I've long had my iTunes media on a non-boot drive.  Couple of ways to achieve this.
