Will any iPod work with Mac OS 10.3.9?

I want a basic iPod for music on the move but what older ones will work on my iBook G4 running 10.3.9? I don't mind trawling eBay... I understand that the new iPods require a more up to date OS...

You can look at the iPod specification profiles here
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/consumer_electronics/index-ipod.html
There is an entry for +Mac Support+ on the profiles, which shows the earliest Mac OS X release that is supported by each model.

  • Will any Ipod work with Windows 98

    Thats what I have Windows 98 SE.Will any Ipod series work with my PC.

    The iPod Windows software as supplied by Apple (and iTunes) will only work on a Windows 2000 or XP system.
    However there is third party software which you can use, to enable you to use your iPod with a Windows 98 PC.

    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.

  • Will 30g iPod work with New Nike product?

    I recently purchased a 30 iPod video. I would like to know if the new Nike system works with it as well as just the Nano. The Nike site only lists the Nano as a requirement.
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Hello, I don't have a direct answer for you, but I can give you some advice. I'd highly recommend you NOT go jogging with your 30GB iPod (or any iPod with a hard drive). The jarring motion of the legs hitting the pavement (or what have you) can cause the hard drive to crash (the read/write head slams into the platter of the hard drive and will damage it, causing the hard drive to fail).
    However, if you can catch it when the disk is not spinning,(running only when the disk stops spining, there's cache that puts 25 minutes into memory so the disk doesn't have to spin) you may be ok, but to be on the safe side, I'd go against that as well.

  • Will new iPods work with my iMac G3 DV?

    Hi,
    I want to buy one of the new iPods either the big baby or the Nano, but I can't seem to get a definitive answer as to whether it will work with my Mac.
    I have an iMac G3 DV 400mhz, which I believe has USB 1.
    Will it work with this as some are saying it might, although Apple say no.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hey!
    Ken,If you're buying a new Pod,Apple system requirements are Mac OS 10.3.9 or later.So if your OS isn't that upto date then I would say no.Also USB 1.0 isn't desirable.It would work but be incredibly slow in Mounting/Updating and so-on.USB 2.0 is the connection used on 1st/2nd gen Nano and 5th Gen iPod Video.Hope this is of some use.
    Cheers,
    John

  • Will Office 2004 work with Mac OS 10.4.11?

    I'm currently running Office 2004 with Mac OS 10.4.2 but will soon be upgrading to Mac OS 10.4.11. I'm wondering if the Office currently installed on my computer will work with OS 10.4.11.
    (All the component apps of Office are marked as Version 11.2, except Entourage, which is marked as Version 11.2.1.)
    I'd appreciate any thoughts. THANK YOU.
    -Bob

    Shouldn't be any problem. I used Office 2004 with 10.4.11 for quite a while until I bought Office 2008.
    You might want to update your Office apps, though, with the latest security updates and bug fixes. My Office 2004 apps are all 11.3.something versions.

  • Will airport extreme work with Mac OS v10.6?

    I have an Imac from 2009, Using OS X v 10.6.8 and cannot get an airport extreme to match.  I kept getting a msg to upgrade airport utility hardware 6.2.2, but then an unable to do so.    Are the 2 incompartible?   I thought the advantage of apple products was connectivity.   Any thoughts are appreciated!!  Paul

    The most recent AirPort Extreme works without any problem with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is that it requires AirPort Utility 6.3 to set it up, and this version is only available for OS X Lion and Mountain Lion.
    If you don't want to upgrade Mac OS X and you have an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, you can use them to set up your AirPort Extreme. Open Settings > Wi-Fi, choose your AirPort station and follow the steps.
    If you don't have any of those devices, upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion. Open the Mac App Store and purchase it. Make a backup of your data with Time Machine and check that your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com When the download finishes, upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion. After upgrading, open  > Software Update, and install AirPort Utility 6.3, which you have to open and follow its steps.
    The other option is to return your AirPort Extreme and get an older one

  • Will new iPod work with old library???

    For 18 months, I've had my beloved iPod mini. Alas, the time has now come to trade it in for a newer model. I have only one concern left. The iPod is notorious for its restrictions on users. I've had iTunes synched to my mini for the last year and a half. If I go out and buy an iPod video, will it work with my music library? If it doesn't, how can I get it to work? Lastly, I'll probably upgrade again when they improve the iPod video. Will IT, in turn, work, after having used the older version before it!?

    That's good to hear. What has me worried is that my little brother recently bought an iPod of his mate. He tried synching it with my library and it just didn't register. Now, obviously, my new iPod will never have been linked to any other machine but still. However, my brother was able to sync his iPod with a different and fresh iTunes computer in my house

  • Does any ipod work with any nike sensor?

    I already own a Nike + sensor, do I need to change to a new one to make it work with a new Ipod nano? Or can I pair it with my existing one?

    If it's a newer iPod, you shouldn't need to purchase a new sensor. It will work as long as you are pairing the sensor with an iPod that supports Nike+.

  • Will This sofware work with Mac Os X 10.4.3?

    I reacently purchased a copy of Adobe PageMaker 7.0 for Mac but haven't being able to install it. The message on the computer is telling me that the sofware cannot run on this operating system.
    The software requirements ask for Mac os 9.1 or Mac OS X (classic mode only).

    I'm not an expert but I've had similar problems (wanting to run classic applications on tiger) and asked on here and basically, no. It won't work.
    Somehow apple have managed to release this "oh so wonderful" intel core duo thing with tiger which prevents an incredible amount of software (ie. all classic) from working!! haha so clever...
    so sorry but I don't think it will work..
    If you want to double check though feel free

  • Will InDesign CS4 work with Mac OS 10.8?

    I am buying a new iMac and would like to know if I will have to upgrade Adobe CS 4 software.

    All bets are off with CS4 on 10.8. You can try, though.
    As for upgrading you have no upgrade path except to Creative Cloud.

  • Will Lightroom 3 work with Mac OSX 10.7?

    I just purchased an iMac with Lion 10.7 and would like to use Lightroom 3.  The system requirements for Lightroom 3 shows OSX 10.5 or 10.6.  Nothing listed for 10.7.

    Steven,
    Be sure to download 3.5. That one has some Lion-related problems fixed.
    No matter how you buy Lightroom, you can apply the serial number you get when you buy it to the downloaded trial version to make it a non-trial version.

  • Will a new Ipod work with Ibook G3 600MHz (Dual USB)?

    I have a Ibook G3 600MHz (Dual USB) with USB 1 and I'm considering buying a new 30GB Ipod; Apple recommends USB 2.0. Will this Ipod work with my Ibook?
    Thanks

    you really need USB2 high powered ports to be able to charge your ipod correctly....
    you could use USB1 to synch files but it will be painfully slow
    and you could get a USB2 iPod charger to charge your ipod

  • I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device.  But I have a Conceptronic router.  Will Time Capsule work with this and how?

    I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device.  But I have a Conceptronic router.
    1. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?
    2. Can my printer USB be plugged in and then shared between the devices?
    3. Can I create a network and how?
    4.  What happend when a visitor logs onto my existing wireless router?
    I'm new to Macs (well a returning user having started with Mac Plus!!) and not very technical.  Any help / advice will be much appreciated.
    Ray

    The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router.  I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
    You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.
