iPod help

Post by Ender »

Right, finally went and got myself an iPod. Problem now is getting music on it. According to the guide, when I plug it in, iTunes will run automatically giving me instructions on how to transfer over songs. Except that didn't happen. I had to start it myself and it provided no instructions. Manual then said how to manually set it to copy songs automatically when I plug it in. It says first I have to select the iPod on the source list. Except it isn't on the source list.

Its plugged in now with the Do Not Disconnect symbol showing. Now what do I do?

Don't stress about the do not disconnect thing: worst case is you lose your music database, and you haven't got one yet.
