How does the iPod organize content?

When I manually add content to my video iPod, how does the iPod know where to put it? Does it go into Movies, Music, TV shows, podcasts, etc? Does it rely on the mp3 id tags??? If yes, can I force a movie to go into the music folder my simply changing mp3 id3 tags?
30G video ipod Windows XP Pro

1 I by its tag
2 depends on the files tag
3 No...mp4 and m4a files have diffrent tags then mp3s
In iTunes 6.0.5 if you change the "VIdeo Kind" it will sort correctly. Just right click file, and in the options tab change the setting under "VIdeo Kind".
Besides iTunes if you want to change a tag you have to use a mp4/m4a tag editor program like "YAMB ver 2 preview" it can change your tags and much more and its free http://yamb.unite-video.com/
you can try YAMB ver 1.6 but I don't think it works very well with tags.

How does the ipod touch connect to the internet?

I am looking at buying my kids the ipod touch 4th genreation but how does it connect to the internet or is it just itunes?

Wirelessly - WiFi. iTunes provides the means to sync directly with the computer and to make backups that are stored on the computer along with the library of music, movies, apps, etc. With iOS 5 or 6 installed it can sync wirelessly as well.

How does the iPod sort artists?

Hopefully this can be answered easily and quickly. I was changing the fields on a few artists and noticed that is has the album artist listed like The Beatles. Which while being true is a real pain. If that's how the iPod lists all the artists under The. Does it work sorting them under Artist? Or album artist?

It sorts on Artist unless teh Album Artist field is filled in.
If you do nto want to use the Album Artist field, don't.
Or you can fill in the *Sort Artist* field.
Right click on one song by The Beatles.
Clcik on the Sort tab.
In the *Sort Artist* field, put Beatles, then OK.
On this song, right click -> Apply Sort Field and select Same Artist.
This will copy Beatles to the *Sort Artist* field for all songs by The Beatles.
The Beatles will now be sorted under B.

How does the iPod Classic Respond to Multiple Album Artworks?

iTunes allows you to put more than one artwork as the file's album art ... does it ever cycle through them, or is it just "there", taking up precious bytes?

To date, the firmware only ever shows the first image in any given file. You can, however, give different artwork to different tracks and the iPod will display the appropriate image. An example I have is Mike Oldfield's "Light & Shade", the first CD is "Light" while the other is "Shade". I have this arranged as a single 22 track album within iTunes with the "Light" artwork on the first 13 tracks and the "Shade" artwork on the other 9. As far as I can tell the iPod draws on a separate artwork cache created during the sync process for displaying artwork. I assume this would only store the primary image from any given file, however the original data is still embedded in the media file so to that extent the data is still "there". In the scheme of things it's hardly likely to be a problem unless you routinely embed dozens of images into each track. If you drop images onto the album art panel in iTunes they will be appended to any existing images. If you *Get info* for multiple tracks & paste in the artwork box there then all the images are replaced with the single new image.

It doesn't display, the ipod only displays/uses the first piece of cover art. So yes since the artwork is embedded in the track it's just there taking up space.

Does the ipod touch bring alot of revenue for apple if so how much?

How much revenue does the ipod bring?

For the last quarter of 2011:
Once again, however, iPods are the one category that continues to decline in the face of the growth of smartphones. Apple sold a total of 15.4 million iPods -- over half of which were iPod touches -- which represents a 21 percent decline from the 19.4 million sold a year ago. The holiday shopping season did boost sales considerably from the 6.6 million sold in the previous quarter, though.

How does the content repository differ from the ECM plugin capability

How does the content repository differ from the ECM plugin capability suh as Documentum. What are the different use cases. Which is the best to use for managing document uploads by user for association with user's personal products/services ?

Content Repository is a standards-based, fully featured repository, included in all the editions of the Adobe Digital Enterprise Platform and Solutions. You can use it to store and access content, execute rich set of content services like search, authorization, etc. As such, it's ideally suited for all the content/document/asset-related needs of your applications. It offers the JCR API, plus access through RESTful interface and WebDAV network drive (among others). Additionally, managing content in the Content Repository makes it immediately availble for all the solutions that run of the platform.
In essence, Content Repository is your go-to place to store and manage content in the Digital Enterprise Platform/Solutions. It is well suited to cater to your use case.
The ECM Plugins (Connectors) are used if you have existing LiveCycle document services, and you have one of the ECM systems in your infrastructure used as archive. It allows you then to connect to such a 3rd-party system, and retrieve document for processing, as well as store them back for archiving.

Am having major issues! this does not work i dont understand..does the ipod have to be off while pressing the buttons if so how is it possible if it is connected to the computer either way it turns on..and when i tried these steps while the ipod was on it

i am having major issues! this does not work i dont understand..does the ipod have to be off while pressing the buttons if so how is it possible if it is connected to the computer either way it turns on..and when i tried these steps while the ipod was on it still doesnt work it just asks me “slide to power off” please someone help me i just cant seem to put my ipod in DFU mode

To get the iPod in recovery mode and DFU mode you first have to turn the iPod off.
Just what is the problem you are tying to resolve?
Sometimes you have to let the battery fully drain if you can't turn the iPod off. After charging for at least hour try again.

How to encrypt the iPod's content when syncing with iTunes?

I can't find the way to encrypt the iPod's content. For example, how to make a password that people have to enter when they connect my iPod with iTunes before they can see all the stuff that's in my iPod appeared in iTunes?

Passcodes and Data Protection
You can set a passcode that you must enter each time you turn on or wake up
iPod touch.
Set a passcode: Choose Settings > General > Passcode Lock and enter a 4-digit
passcode, then enter the passcode again to verify it. iPod touch then requires you to
enter the passcode to unlock it or to display the passcode lock settings.
Setting a passcode turns on data protection (iPod touch 3rd generation). Data
protection uses your passcode as the key for encrypting mail messages and their
attachments stored on iPod touch. (Data protection may also be used by some
applications available in the App Store.) A notice at the bottom of the Passcode Lock
screen indicates when data protection is enabled.
To increase the security of iPod touch, turn off Simple Passcode and use a longer
passcode with a combination of numbers, letters, punctuation, and special characters.
See “Passcode Lock” on page 139.
Important: On iPod touch 3rd generation, you must also restore iOS software to
enable data protection.

This thread - with a quote from an LR4 Beta thread - says that all 6 central Basic controls in PV2012 (Exposure thru Blacks) are now image-adaptive, as were Recovery, Fill Light, and Clarity in previous versions:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4253485
Whether they are suitable for creating a Timelapse sequence without significant flicker is entirely subjective and up to you - and of course, dependant on your specific images & how they change over time. Sorry, not much advice beyond try PV2012, and revert back to PV2010 if you get too much flicker.

The iPod can only tether via Bluetooth for internet connectivity to an iPhone. It will connect to other phones to tether for internet connectivity if the phones can act like a wifi hotspot.
