Is There a Way to Load Photos onto an iPod Nano

I'm a Windows user who bought an iPod Nano for Music and Photos. Since there is no iPhoto for Windows, and maybe never will, is there another way to do it? If I knew the file format for photos maybe I could find a way to load them. Otherwise, I wasted my money buying a iPod Nano. My huge company is PC committed. We have no Apple computers. I don't see this type of PC community using Apples and using work PCs just to get photos. That's to much to keep up with. I'm already having problems keeping up with Unix, Linux, Windows plus mainframe O/S's.
Maybe someone will invent a PcPod for Windows that fits in my ear.

I think most Apple users will ignore your question. First of all, I suggest you read the documentation. If you choose not to; rely on that all powerful two button mouse (Apple users are only now beginning to recognize the advantages of this type of device; and Intel chips).
right click on the iPod nano icon in iTunes;
select iPod options;
click the photo tab;
check the appropriate box;
That should work.

I CANT LOAD PHOTOS ONTO MY IPOD PLEASE HELP!

I just got an iPod nano. I knew that i could load photos onto it, but I just recently got into wanting photos on it. I follow the directions in the ipod user guide on my computer, but when it says to go into ipod options, where it should have options for loading music, contacts, photos and callender, it doesnt have a section to load photos! So I have no way to put them on....I dont know if my iTunes knows that i have a nano or anything but does anyone know how to fix it? also would an error message saying 'Failed to locate supported file types or there are no photos found on this device', that constantly pops up when i connect my ipod to my computer, have anything to do with it?
Sorry that is so long....but if you can figure it out or know where something is that might help then reply!

hmmm idk. i checked for an update but it said that the version i have was the latest version. i got my ipod in the last week of december/first week in january. i opened up itunes a minute ago and it said a new update was available, which i downloaded. now it says i can put photos onto it, but then that error message on itunes pops up saying 'The iPod could not be updated. THe disk could not be read from or written to.'Would it have anything to do with another error message that i get, ever since the first time i plugged it in, reading 'Failed to locate supported file types or there are no photos found on this device'. That one i havent seen in about an hour, and i have been able to edit which photos i put on my ipod for about an hour.
Sorry its so long! You can see the photos on your ipod nano right? I only have slidshow settings when i go into the photo section. No pictures loaded onto it yet. Any ideas on whats goin on?

Is there any way to load music onto my iPad without going to the computer and iTunes?

Hi,
My iPad is sync's with iTunes over WiFi. Is there any way of pulling songs/albums down to the iPad from my iTunes music collection (not iTunes purchases)?
Or am I forced to have to drive this from a seat in front of iTunes directly?
Thanks
Phil

The sync manually is fine. I don't use iTunes match. I just want to drive the selection of songs and the sync from the ipad rather than from the computer. There are 5 iPads in the home owned by different family members with different music tastes. It would be good if they could make the selections themselves.
The goal is to have the songs synchronised with the iPad so that they are available away from the home and off of a network.
Cheers

Is there a way to load music to my ipod from purchases from Realplayer, etc

Hi.
Let me start off by saying I am a computer idiot. It took me 20 minutes to figure out how/where to post my question.
I apologize if I ended up posting in the wrong place and I apologize in advance for my babble.
Here is my question(s).
I have a Ipod60.
I have managed to upload songs that I had accummulated over the years that are in my music library.
Unfortuantely, I seem to be having a problem with 3 things.
1) is a audio clip my cousin sent me. The clip is in .wav.
I can add it to my liabray. I can play it on the computer when in Itunes. I can see it on my ipod. HOWEVER, when I try to play the song on my ipod, the title appears on the screen but it immediately jumps to the next song. How do I get it to play on the ipod?
2) I purchase a song from the Realplayer store because I couldnt find the song on Itunes. They said that it was compatible with my Ipod. Unfortunatley, Itunes will not let me add or import the song.
What am I doing wrong?
3)I have one song that is a mp3 extension that will not let me upload it to the ipod. Again, I can add it to my library, but it will not save onto the ipod.
I tried to look at the various "help" sections. They say something about programing the darn thing to manual additions/updates but that doesnt seem to work.
Am I doing something wrong?
If anyone has any suggestions or knows of instructions that are in simple /"for dummies" terminology, I would greatly appreciate it.
I also have a question about why I can't upload varios videos that I have...but that is another battle.
Thanks in advance and once again, I apologize if I am posting in the wrong place or babbled.

Once again, thank you both for taking the time to answer.
Camoracer - thank you for the suggestions on the transfer programs. I will look into them, once my 1 semi working brain cells stops hurting from this little technical puzzle.
I quickly check Videora out and it seems to be able to convert other formats TO IPOD. It doesnt seem to go the other way. Are there others that allow for that or is it impossible to copy IPOD "stuff" into other formats?
Is there a "silver bullet" of a program that works on most types video & audio (.mp3, m4p, mp4, avi, .flv, .mov. etc) ?
ED2345 - thank you for trying to make me feel better by saying that "it is a common mistake". It doesnt make me feel as stupid as I feared...but I did warn you that I am a moron when it comes to this stuff. I just thought that by changing the extension from (for example) .mp3 to .avi or .wmv was enough....heck most of the time it seems to work.
Anyway, I tried to do what you suggested. But before I click and change anything on my settings I want to make sure I THINK I am doing what you said.
I go into Itunes and get into Importing and I see the following
ON CD INSERT: ask to import CD
IMPORT USING: AAC ENCODER
SETTING: HIGH QUALITY (128 kbps)
(then in a little box under it is says:DETAILS
64 kbps (mono)128 kbps(stereo)optimized for MMX/SSE2
then under that box it has a few bullit points (* = lines that are "checked off" & activated:
* Play songs while inporting or converting
* automatically retrieve CD track names from internet
* create file names with track numbers
and
use error correction when reading audio cd's
Now
all that said, where to I make sure the preference is set to mp3 at 160 kb/s.??
Do I change to MP3 in the IMPORT USER by clicking on the drop down and changing to MP3 ENCODER?
Do I change the 160kbs by clicking on settings => custom=> and then change the STERO BIT RATE??
Knowing me, I will click on the wrong thing and cause my computer to self destruct.
Once again, thank you both for your time.

Is there a way to get music onto my ipod from a CD that I lost after I put the songs onto iTunes, but then had to completely erase everyting on my computer?

Yeah, so this is what happened. I had an old iPod nano, and then my computer crashed and deleted eveything. Then, I got a new iPod, and I want to put songs that I had on a CD that I already had on iTunes before my computer crashed onto my new iPod, but I lost the CD. Is there a way for me to find those songs??? Kinda impossible, but is there genius out there that can help me out? Thanks.

The songs will only be where you put them.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Your music should be there.

Is there a way to recover photos on a ipod touch 5th gen after restoring it.

Last week i changed the password of my ipod touch 5th gen and I couldnt get back in so I put my ipod touch on recovery mode and now ive lost all of my 3000 photos. Is there any way to recover them? Everything else is recovered.

Photos
- If they are in an iPod backup then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:
Recover iPhone, iPad or iPod photos from backups with Picturescue
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer

How to down load photo's to iPod Nano without re-loading all other content?

How do I put photo's on my iPod Nano (2nd Gen) without re-loading all my music?
The note on the Photos tab in iTunes says iTunes will copy all of the other content onto the iPod first, and then copy the phots's.
Is there a way around this?

From the summary screen of iTunes for the iPod, you should be able to go into the Photos section and change your setting for which photos to update to the ipod INDEPENDENTLY from everything else. I have done this many times on my Fifth Gen iPod and it goes without a hitch with only the changes in the photos being updated and the music remaining the way it was since I didn't change that.

Is there a way to revert my 6th generation iPod Nano to version 1.0?

I updated my iPod Nano (6th gen) to version 1.1 when it became available, what, well over a year ago so, it may be too late.
I was estatic when I received my iPod nano and used it all the time...until Apple issued software update 1.1. Now the thing is worthless to me. It's a pain to navigate, I cannot put the icons where I want to. The list goes on. It sits on my desk gathering dust.
Is there any way, after a year or more and a switch to a different computer, that I can revert this back to version 1.0?

Nevermind. Apparently, if you have too much music on the device, the iOS doesn't function correctly. Ran a restore and reloaded the thing with much less music and it works as it should now.

Can I load songs onto my ipod nano (7G) from the cloud without downloading it to my PC?

I just bought a 7G nano. All of my songs are in the cloud. My computer has little space for my large collection of music, podcasts, and videos. I just bought a couple of albums and they went directly to my ipod when I synced. The rest of my library, however, was left in the cloud and didn't make it to my ipod. The only way I can tell to transfer my music from the cloud to my ipod is to download it from the cloud to my PC. Is there a way to bypass my PC and go directly to my ipod?

You will need that library copied from the old computer. If not, then you can take a look at this in getting 3rd party software to recover your library from the iPod. Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive

I think most Apple users will ignore your question. First of all, I suggest you read the documentation. If you choose not to; rely on that all powerful two button mouse (Apple users are only now beginning to recognize the advantages of this type of device; and Intel chips).

Is there a way to listen to radio on iPod nano 7th gen with Bluetooth headphones?

I know the iPod nano 7th gen uses the headphones as an antenna. I know there will need to be some sort of antenna attached. Does anybody know if there is an antenna on the market that can be plugged into the headphone jack that will allow audio to be sent to a pair of Bluetooth headphones?

There is currently no such antenna available.

Is there any way of getting a 7th Gen iPod Nano to sync the same as older generaqtions

I have two problems with my new iPod Nano (7th Gen).
1. When synced, artwork either isn't loaded at all or the wrong artwork is loaded against the wrong artist.
2. When I play an album the songs are not played in the correct order, but shuffled automatically.
Can anybody suggest answeres to sorting these issues?
Frankly, if not, the 7th Gen Ipod is a serious regression - it feels more like a very old mp3 player!

The songs are still on her ipod.
They should transfer ok but make sure and use the same Apple ID that was used for the original purchase.
Connect the iPod to a computer, launch iTunes.
From the iTunes menu bar click File > Transfer Purchases From...
Make sure and backup the iTunes purchases > How to back up your media in iTunes
If this is an iPod touch read here > Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
