IPod 30g video photo storage question

Can I use iPod 30g video as my iPhoto backup? My question is, does it store original photo full size? Do I have to resize my photos before I send them to my iPod? I only need less than 10g for my music, the rest I plan to use for photos. Thanks Alex

You are correct, the iPod does NOT come with a charger, most of us here are disappointed with that, that would be an extra $30 out of your pocket to get. Yes USB is the cable it uses. You can charge it through the computer or (if you have the adapter) through an outlet, via usb. As far as the iPod mini connection, I think it may be different, but I could be wrong, never owned one I'll look into that.
Actually I don't want to say anything, I really don't know, lol, and you are welcome Alex good luck with your iPod and enjoy .

ITunes 7.0.1 & iPod 30G video--freeze while trying to synch/update.

I updated to iTunes 7, and then to 7.0.1 a few days ago. I have had no problems downloading/uploading (other than the fact that downloads are much slower than in version 6) or playing music or videos in iTunes 7 or 7.0.1, however, I have been unable to synch my 30GB video iPod with iTunes. I haven't been able to upload any of my new downloads since going to iTunes 7 or 7.0.1--frustrating! I plug in my iPod, iTunes starts up, it starts the synch, and within seconds I get the spinning beach ball of death. The progress bar stops moving at about 1/3 of the way across. I don't get any error messages, it just freezes. I left it for over an hour and no progress. I have to force quit iTunes, usually twice, to get it to stop, and then when I try to eject my iPod I get a message saying the iPod is in use by another user. I rebooted my iPod, to no avail.
The second aspect of this issue is that I didn't update my iPod to 1.2--assuming that has anything to do with present problems, but maybe not--before I updated iTunes, and now I can't. Since iTunes freezes when I have the iPod plugged in, I can't access the iPod preferences menu, can't update, nothing...
I am a new iPod user, and am by no means techno savvy, so please forgive me if I am overlooking the major and obvious. I have spent a lot of time combing various forums/discussions, and haven't found any answers. Any help appreciated!

Seems that way. I think I am going to have to give in and spend hours on the phone with Apple support. I don't want to, but I am at a loss. I will share any discoveries...

IPod w/video photo files

I am having trouble with my 80GB's photo capabilities. Everytime I try to load pictures onto it, iTunes automatically deletes any pictures that were already on my iPod.

Well since ITunes uses "Quicktime" you are going to have this problem with MPEGs files that are "Muxed" or Multiplexed where the MPEG Container contains the audio and video in sepearte files. Read these:

N86 photo storage question.

Is it possible to set up a separate folder in which to store photos, so they don't appear in the albums? For example, if I am using the phone like a flash drive, just as a means of transferring files from one location to another.

IPod 30g video charger and dock connector question

It's time to get a new iPod, I have an ipod mini for about 2 years. I know the new one does not come with power adapter, can I use the ipod mini power adapter to charge the new ipod? I also want to know if the dock connector is the same because I have ipod adapter installed on my car. Thanks Alex

yes they do. supllied with the ipod video is a dock adapter so i think all you have to do is to take out the mini dock adapter and insert the one provided with ipod video.

Ipod 30g Video Repair Help

Alright, I've had my 30gb Video for about 2 years and everything worked fine until recently.
About two weeks ago I left my Ipod in my car while I ran into a store (everything was working fine) and when I came back I noticed my Ipod screen was all messed up. It looked like there was a crack under the screen; there were gray splots everywhere and different colored lines running across the screen horizontaly and vertically. Besides that, everything else works fine on it--the screen still lights up, Music still plays/syncs normally, it's just really hard to read sometimes. I have no clue how this happened, im pretty sure I didn't drop it or step on it or anything.
My question is should I send it into Apple to get it repaired, and how much would it cost? (I don't have an extended warranty)
Thanks!

Sounds like you have a broken LCD screen, so you must have knocked it or something without noticing it. Do you keep it between the seats where it is likely to get bumped?
Anyway, Apple will not cover broken LCDs under warranty. You would have to get it fixed with a third party vendor. Search the web for "ipod repair" and you will find lots of them.
Sorry,
Patrick

Well, if you let the battery drain completely, you will have to let it charge for about 10-20 minutes before it has enough power to run it's operating system software. Have you let it charge for that long?

My Ipod 30G Video shows that it is setup for Windows, How can I change that

I am new to ipods but not to itunes.. I have a Power Mac G5 and am running itunes 605.
I opened my new ipod and knew that I would have to charge it for quite a few hours before I could play!
My wife was using my preciouls Mac, so i had to resort to getting my Work laptop (PC junk) out of the bag.
I plugged the new ipod into the USB port and was prompted top register my new Ipod, which I did. I then left my new ipod charging overnight.
This evening when I returned home from work I plugged my new ipod into my Mac and a prompt told me that the software needed upgrading.
I downloaded the ipod SW updater and opened it.
To my horror I see that Mac is greyed out and my ipod is configured for Windowzzzzzzzz
HORROR!!!.. what can I do?
Please help, I'm anxiouls to download the SW update and update my new ipod with my itunes on my Mac!!
Thanks!
Steve

Thanks for the help, I did this and my upadter now says that my ipod is configured for a Mac.
One more question.. the SW update button is greyed out. Does this mean that my ipod has the latest SW and doesn't need updating? or is something wrong?
I used the latest updater!
Thanks Again!

Toggle your Hold button ON and OFF>
Then you may try:
Doing a manual Reset on IPOD--by selecting
Menu and Center simultaneously, for about 6 seconds.
Check to see IPOD works normal after reset is Successful:

IPod 30G video using 2 computers to manage iTunes-yikes!

I have 2 iTunes libraries, by purpose or by mistake! My home computer does not have a fast connection (dial-up), so I loaded my CD's from home on it and on to my iPod. My work computer has a T1 line, so I today loaded my iTunes software on it and downloaded some videos and a couple of songs. But then in the process of transferring them onto my iPod, I apparently erased my songs which were already on there. I think I clicked a message box incorrectly. Now my iPod has the video and downloads, but no songs from home. I can't get my home library of songs/cd's back on the iPod. That same message box keeps popping up and I'm afraid to click it again, probably losing my downloads from work.
1) How can I make my home computer my main iPod computer and just use the work computer for downloading? And then transferring the downloads back to my home library.
2) How can I copy my home library/computer songs back onto my iPod, keeping the videos and downloads from today?
3) What settings should I have on home computer iTunes and work computer iTunes so this doesn't happen again? I think it has something to do with manual updates? Which computer (home/work) should have manual and which should be automatic.
I am very frustrated as I know what I'm trying and want to do, but can't figure out how to do it! I am setting the iPod aside until I can find out what to do, so I don't make things worse (either erasing the iPod or the computer, or both!)
THANK YOU so much for your help and advice!

"The iPod "iPod" is linked to another iTunes music library. Do you want to change the link to this iTunes music library and replace all existing songs and playlists on this iPod with those from this library?"
Yes, that's the box I clicked 'yes' to in order to get the downloads onto the iPod, and then my songs already on the iPod disappeared. When I clicked 'no', (first), I couldn't get the downloads on, nothing happened. So then I clicked 'yes' ...
What should I have done? What should I do the next time?
Thanks again!
Daisy
