IPod and Windows Millenium Edition
Does the software that came with my iPod work on Millenium Edition? Is the ME too old for the software?
sorry cody, itunes and the ipod software aren't compatible with Windows ME. just Windows 2000 and XP.
you might be able to cobble together some third party options. there are some links in this document which might be helpful along those lines:

Can I download Mozilla for Windows Millenium Edition
I'm running Internet Explorer 6 and need to upgrade. Is there an upgrade available for Windows Millenium Edition?
Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever version of Firefox for Win98 / SE / ME. <br />
Get it from here: <br />
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/en-US/
If some websites you use are blocking IE6 and that's the reason you want to install Firefox, you may find that Firefox 2 is also blocked due to it being an "old" browser. -
Using ipod with windows millenium
Hi
I am having problems with installing ipod mini with my computer. Aparantly ipod requires min of windows 2000 or XP however my computer has windows millenium as operating system.
Having tried to upgrade to XP this resulted in my computer crashing and me having to use the computer recovery disc.
I am scared of trying to upgrade my computer. Is there any way that ipod mini can be used with windows millenium.
Hoping for Help
ShaneIt can be done, Shane, but it's not easy.
iTunes won't work under ME, so you'll need a replacement. The iPod Updater, also required to prepare the iPod for Windows use, won't work either under ME. You'll need to install and run the iPod Updater on a computer with Windows XP to get your mini ready.

Hey everyone, quick question. Does anybody know if their are any drivers that I can download so that my Ipod Nano will work on my computer. I have Windows ME, and I guess Ipod isn't compatible with ME. Anyone know of any drivers?

Anapod Reinitializer 1.0.0
Anapod Reinitializer is a free, lightweight utility for reformatting and reinitializing your iPod. Its function is equivalent to the Restore button in the Apple iPod Updater utility. Anapod Reinitializer runs on all versions of Windows, so it allows Windows 98/ME users (who cannot use Apple's software because it only runs on 2000/XP) to format their iPods.
Anapod Explorer 8.7.3
Anapod Explorer is hands-down the most advanced Windows software companion for your iPod. Anapod can copy and backup iPod music and playlists to your PC and integrates your iPod into Windows Explorer as a full-fledged device under My Computer, allowing you to transfer files to your iPod as well and use a familiar Explorer interface to manage on-board music, playlists, contacts, notes, and more. Also included are a built-in database called AnapodSQL and a one-of-a-kind web-based streaming interface to your iPod called Anapod Xtreamer. -

IPod and Windows x64 Professional?
Ok, This is the day i have waited for. Windows XP 64bit edition. I tried my new iPod and it could not read it for the life of me. So i reinstalled the old windows xp w/service pack 2 and all is well. Does iPod not work for windows xp 64bit edition?
Just wouldn't read the iPod at all. In iTunes or in My Computer.
hmmmm. okay, haven't heard this reported as a problem for 64-bit, but i don't think i've seen a case of someone using it with an ipod video before.
just checking ... have you seen this document yet?

Is there something wrong with ipod and Windows XP? ipod not found at all?
search for ipod in microsoft help and support....
here's a bit here's what microsotft says:
To resolve this problem, delete the UpperFilters registry value and the LowerFilters registry value. These values may cause access problems. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit , and then click OK.
2. Locate and then click the UpperFilters registry value. This value is located in the following registry subkey:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E980-E325 11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
3. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
4. Locate and then click the LowerFilters registry value. This value is located in the following registry subkey:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10 318}
5. On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
6. Exit Registry Editor.
7. Restart the computer.
my computer would crash, sometimes it'd just sync a couple random songs, sometimes i'd get error -50, somtimes a different message that said the disk could not be read or written to.....
it worked perfectly for me!make sure to follow the directions. it's easy and resolves many Windows XP problems related to ipods. for more info try microsoft help and support and just serch for ipod. it list a bit more info there. it doesn't say anything about reinstalling the apple software, but just to be thorough i unistalled itunes and quicktime before anything just to start with a clean slate, then reinstalled them from my ipod disk after the restart. then i downloaded all the updates from apple. my ipod has never worked better. good luck. theres no link to the page just search for ipod in windows help and support for exact text...i am not a computer wiz...like our boys at apple i am asing a question and saying what i've tried, i dont understand why it works but, sweet, it worked for me and there must be a reason. it solved every problem i've posted in
,i would like to i would ike to know why i susspect uncompatible programs, from our faves, thats why i think tie discripition is humble, do you have to have multiple, random problems for this Microsoft fix to meet your ipod (formally) my ipod workked for a long time, amidst udates, and experimentation, i became a box topper for my unused tech...cords,cell phones, even a gameboy slept next to my 5th g there is not try theres only do, so someone do something and adrees my question, i'ts very detailed and if will help you i'll say i use the fast usb required, i deleated (claeared it all out before i even attempted to mess with the registry , i'd like mac user opinons, but what i'm really looking for is Windows XP users, Apple might fix this problem but i got a 30 gig the newest "obsolete" ipod there are many problems on pc that mac users may not have expieriencind, (because of different software?), so don't be quick to judge, i read a trusted support, i had nothing to lose, so i tried this registry edit and it was like a miracle fix...." -
Hey guys,
I just bought the U2 Special Edition 20gb Ipod and I have an old (~5yrs.) HP pavilion that runs on Windows ME edition. Will I be able to transfer my songs to the Ipod without having to upgrade to Windows XP? I'd rather not upgrade because I am afraid that my computer will start crashing a lot. What about the iTunes that come with the iPod, will they work?
Thanks!it doesnt work with ME

Problems with Ipod and Windows Media Player PLEASE HELP
Ok i am not sure if this is the correct forum or not but i am having a problem. I have a Windows computer (Yes a windows computer please dont everyone yell at me) and i have a new ipod 30 gig video. Ok well when i put itunes on it changes all my music on my computer gets changed to AAC format and i cannot play music in windows media player. Ok well that is not my big issue. I make videos for church using windows movie maker and i cannot import music because nothing windows can recognize Itunes format which is AAC. well is there anyway so i can use itunes and still use WIndows Media Player and Windows Movie Maker... Any info will be greatly appreciated. THANKS ALL
I believe Quicktime Pro (which is available for Windoze) is capable of opening any WMP files and then you just export it as iPod format. That is how I get video onto the iPod. The Music and Videos all can be placed onto your iPod through iTunes.
So, if you are creating videos in your program, and want them on your iPod, then that is how you can do it.
Videos on your iPod have nothing to do with the formatting of your music. But, as the earlier post stated, change your prefs in iTunes to import as MP3. But, your videos HAVE to be in MP4 or M4V format to work on the iPod.
Good luck... and I'm a j3susfreak too -
30gig 5th generation video ipod and windows vista
i've been reading alot of posts putting vista down in reguards to the video ipod . i just wanted to say that i have window's vista home premium and my first video ipod
30gig and i've not had a single problem related to vista.
any problems have been to me never having owned an ipod .
just thought i'd set the record straight for those who are thinking of getting a video ipod and already have vista .
you know , just fyi .
but i am wondering , how well does the ipod record notes ?
and anyone here in a band and tape their rehearsals ? was wondering how it sounds . thanks all !after I watched them they dissappeared from my ipod,
Sounds like you have selected to only sync unwatched video content to your iPod.
This is a setting that you can change in your iTunes preferences.

30G Video IPod and Windows Vista - Help!
I just recently bought a new computer equipped with Windows Vista. I have a 12" G4 iBook that was my main computer from which I ran my 30G Video iPod, and now I am wanting to sync my iPod with my new Windows computer, and this will be the only system I use with my iPod.
I realize there are many problems with compatibility of iTunes/iPods with Windows Vista.
My question is, barring the problems with iTunes, I downloaded the latest iTunes anyways and tried to use Yamipod to bring my 1600+ songs onto my computer from my iPod by bypassing iTunes. Problem is, my computer doesn't even recognize the iPod at all. iTunes does, but when I cancel the box asking me to reformat my iPod to Windows format and try to use Yamipod, Yamipod doesn't even recognize an iPod existing. I thought maybe it was just the program, so I tried about 4 others, but nothing. I also used the cd that came with my iPod and put the drivers onto this computer, but the actual computer still doesn't even recognize it plugged in.
Any ideas? Also, because a lot of my songs are in m4a format, how will that work if I am able to put them on this computer? Will I have to convert them all to mp3?
Thank you for any help you can give.And given that Vista has been available in Release
candidate version for ages and that the release date
has been known for ages, shouldn't apple have made
the effort to make itunes compatible with Vista?
After all, the vast majority of itunes users live in
Windows land.
perhaps you should familiarise yourself with the common usage and implications of the symbol string
but as you clearly aren't familiar with it, if i took your question seriously, which i don't, then the answer is no...
your argument is that being first and being in the majority rules
that'll be apple then won't it
i) i can't be bothered to check the itunes release date, certainly it was out in 2001, which is several years before microsoft even figured out what to call the os formerly known as longhorn, let alone finished sawing off the pieces it couldn't make work
ii) the majority of people with portable music players use ipod/itunes, so it is for microsoft to conform with the majority and not make changes that impair the products used by the majority
so, by your own argument, it is microsoft's responsibility to maintain compatibility -
Photos on my iPod and Windows/Mac issue
A friend of a friend is selling . . .
APPLE iPOD Video 30Gb (5th generation)
So, two questions: if it has been used in conjunction with a Windows-based PC is this likely to give me grief if I wish to use it with my Mac?
or will it need reformatting and is this likely to cause problems?
Secondly, can I view photos and store on it?"is this likely to give me grief if I wish to use it with my Mac?
or will it need reformatting and is this likely to cause problems?"
It won't necessarily need reformatting becuase Macs can read and write to Windows formatted iPods. However, you would then need to make any future software updates to the iPod on Windows. Much better to reformat it for your Mac when you get it.
"can I view photos and store on it?"
Yes you can.

5G iPod and Windows 2000 (SP4)
I have successfully installed various iPod models to a number of Windows XP-based computers, but I am having problems installing my new 5G iPod to my Windows 2000 (SP4)-based machine.
Upon connecting the iPod to a USB 2.0 port (self-powered hub, 500 mA per port) on my machine, Windows 2000 finds the iPod and lists it in Device Manager as "? Other devices/ ? iPod" and calls for a computer restart. On restarting the computer, Windows 2000 finds the iPod, loads iTunes, and updates the iPod. However, Windows 2000 doesn't list the iPod as an "Other device" at this point, although it does show up under "Universal Serial Bus controllers" as a "USB Mass Storage Device." So far so good. But then, after a few minutes (remaining connected to the computer all the while, with iTunes running), the iPod turns itself off. iTunes still shows that the iPod is connected, but if I instruct iTunes to "Update the iPod," iTunes can't locate it and I get a "System Settings Change (new device)" window from Windows 2000 instructing me to restart my computer. Also, the iPod does not charge when connected to a USB 2.0 port unless Windows 2000 has found the iPod, listed it as an "? Other devices/? iPod" and is waiting for a restart. In this case, it charges just fine.
Is the 5G iPod truly compatible with Windows 2000 as advertised? Is there a fix for the problem that I am having? I have tried ALL recommended trouble-shooting steps several times, to no avail.

Hi,
if i connect my iPod to my Windows Vista PC teh CPU usage goes up to 100%. The process svchost take nearly all the processortime.
iTunes and iPod are up to date.
I getting mad about that. With Win XP i don not have these probs.
Any ideas about that ?
Greetings AdmiralI take it that you're a developer.
It is likely that your iPod may not work with Windows Vista (hasn't it still not been properly been released?) - anyway, Try the Microsoft Forums aswell.
hmmmmm
You don't really need a driver to use a driver to get a Windows XP computer to work with an iPod. Same goes probably for the Windows Vista.
So, try getting the iPod Updater.
Restore & Update your iPod, then try it with iTunes.
Has your iPod been used with any other operating systems? e.g. Windows XP??? or is it just Windows Vista?
