Don't laugh but...

I still use windows 2000 pro and have just got my first ipod (have been loyal to creative up to now) a classic 120mb. however it won't sync to the itunes version i have and i cannot update to the latest itunes because i don't use xp or vista.
is there a way around this problem or am i going to have to update my operating system?
huge thanks for any/all help.

I suspect that the answer is going to be that it won't work. However, in an attempt to convince you that it is possible to get help on this forum, I'll give you the information I have.
There are other media managers. I really don't know much about them as I have the latest Mac OS and use iTunes. If you do a little research, you may find something that will at least let you add music. Only iTunes will let you update software.
I'd google "Windows 2000 iPod classic"
Also, try this Wikipedia article. It may give you a starting point.

Best of luck!

Don't laugh, but please help this new ipod user

ok. I am very computer illiterate and a new ipod user. It seems I cannot figure out how to "send" my 5th generation/video ipod MUSIC LIBRARY to the I-tunes library on my second computer ( i tried to make a playlist but it won't allow). I have downloaded all software from the ipod into both computers, but I cannot seem to get my ipod library onto my ibookG4 itunes library. Make sense? When you all are done laughing at this newbie, it would be great if someone could explain how I do this? It seems there should be a way to save my ipod onto this laptop? thank you very much

Well don't laugh too hard because I Had the same problem but with a Windows
technically its illegal to do that but there is a legitimate way to get around it
What you have to do is enable disk mode on your fifth generation iPod
and it acts as a huge storage device
Then Just copy all the music files into the disk mode
and take them off on your laptop
Just Make sure you don't sync or restore your iPod

Complete beginner so please don't laugh at me ...

... but
I bought my first iPod very recently with a view to having an audio player to use at home, out and about and at my desk in the office. The first two are fine, but i can't get my PC at work to read my iPod.
My first very basic question (like i said, please don't laugh!) is - Am i wrong to assume that i should be able to connect my iPod to ANY PC and listen to the tracks on my iPod?

Thanks for your suggestion - unfortunately, I still can't access the music files on my iPod on my work PC.
From the beginning; I have installed the supplied iPod software on my home PC and the iPod works perfectly; I have now installed the same software on my work PC but cannot access the files on my iPod. My work PC recognises that there is an iPod connected, but it identifies it with a different name (it's called "RAID") and states that there is only 1.23 GB of free space left which is not the case.
Is it possible that my work PC is accessing a different section of the iPod's hard disk rather than the main section? Or is there a setting I have to change to be able to access the music on my iPod on different PC's?

I am trying to buy a song from itunes which i have done many times, but its telling me that its my first purchase and wont except my apple ID. Could someone tell me why????

Hi MM experts,
IR has been completly done on PO ,but still system allowing us to do MIRO against PO.
How it is possible.
Current PO status:
This is intercompnay PO (plant to plant stock transfer) not STO. PO Qty is 60,000 KG, they have done GR partially quanties (many GR's). Delivery/PGI/GR/IR has been completed fully on PO.
why SAP still allowing us to do MIRO against that PO? can any one tell me?

Or Check ME2L report ,filter on field "To be Invoice Qty " and "To Be Invoice Value , difference the post through MR11 if not required any further MIRO in the system.
Thanks & Regards,

So whenever I try to download the newest itunes file it won't let me finish the install process because I'm missing the "Itunes.msi" file whatever that is and I've done some searches but I cannot find the file. Anyone know what to do?

I bought a new computer and want to move (not sync) everything to my new system - bookmarks, add-ons, etc. How do I do this? I've done it before, but I can't find it anymore

I've done this before, but now I can't even find an export function. I am on version 9.0.1 on Windows 7. Has this capability been eliminated? I don't want to sync, as I won't be using the old computer any more, and I don't want all of my information out on someone else's server, no matter how secure it's supposed to be. Help?

What are you getting on the TV? Are you getting a completely blank screen, or are you getting a message similar to 'no input detected'? Or are you seeing the spiral galaxy desktop? If you go into System Preferences -> Displays then do you have an 'Arrangements' tab?

Hello Bluebird,
See if it's related to this...
It also seems to be related to later OSX versions, like 10.8.x & 10.9.x
The 2012 macs (and later apparently) (also later OSX versions on earlier Macs can do it also), not waking normally from sleep after hours being in sleep. (noted here ...

The sleepimage file still reappears even if never slept. Delete it (hibernate off, etc) - within minutes its back.

Also replied this on : iPhone 5 Bluetooth Issues with Car Radio
I had this same issue on the KDC-X996 and called Kenwood after fighting with it for a few hours, The support tech pointed me to the Bluetooth compatibility page http://www.kenwood.com/cs/ce/bt/index.php After putting in my model for both head unit and Apple/iPhone 5s, It took me to a page that had a firmware specifically for the bluetooth unit built into the radio. NOT the normal firmware page, A bluetooth specific one. After downloading and updating my radio has no issues with the bluetooth audio controls any more and the song name and etc now work again. There is also a pdf that explains how to go about updating the bluetooth firmware
This apparently has to deal with Apple putting support for this KB:
Some car stereos require a firmware update for AVRCP 1.4 Bluetooth compatibility

Don't laugh but...
