Can you put music on from CD's and not just itunes? Can we load songs from CD's she already has, or do you have to purchase songs from itunes only?

iPods can play a variety of different media types, not just material downloaded from itunes. You will have to "rip" your CDs, which will basically copy them to your computer. After that is done, they can be loaded on the iPod. I have a mac, so I can't speak for PCs, but when I insert a CD, itunes gives me the option to import (read: rip) the CD with the click of a button. Importing a CD should take less than 5 minutes. One thing I have done is change the default encoder (itunes preferences -&gt; advanced -&gt; importing tab) from AAC (apple format) to mp3 (which is more common), but that's entirely up to the user. I'd recommend you swing by an apple store, they'll be able to answer any other questions you may have and can probably give you a demo.

Yes, you don't HAVE to buy on iTunes, but you will have to use iTunes to upload these songs to the iPod.

I would say "yes" if you download an album, it should show up on iTunes and then download it to your shuffle. I never tried it, but it seems it would work that way. Hope this helps.

I have never used iTunes so I can't say. I usually but my digital music through the Amazon site. Sorry I could not be more help.

First you have to import the CD into iTunes. (If you just put the CD in the slot and have iTunes installed on your computer, iTunes should automatically ask if you want to import the CD. Just click OK.) Once you import it, you can search your iTunes library and see all the songs from of the CD (they may or may not be accurately named, depending on the CD). Then you connect your iPod to your computer. There should be an iPod icon that appears on iTunes. From there, you just click and drag the songs you want on your iPod from the library onto the iPod icon.

In terms of moving music from iTunes to Zune...you can either do as others suggest and burn a CD than rip it back down (to unprotect) OR get some software (such as TuneClone) which mimics this process without actually having to use a CD. You basically burn a CD from iTunes software but select a special "burner" from TuneClone which then just "burns" the music to a new folder, unprotected and ready for Zune. Works nice and fast.

How ever you can drop and drag your music. I buy tunes from amazon then export them to windows where I can sync the Sandisk and drag the music I want to it.

Hello Laurie: I have use cd's I burned as music cds, or burned as mp3 and those seem to work fine, but for some I burned as *data* cd's (like a mix of mp3 and itunes formats etc, those have been some trouble- but when you burn data cd from itunes it does let you know the cd will not work on all players, so I don't think this is a limitation of the Yamaha system.

After you downlaod the itunes software into your computer it is simple. Load the cd's in your computer. Download the cd to your itunes program. Then hookup your Ipod to your computer by the USB cable and start downloading. It's that simple. The Itunes sotftware will tell you and ask you certain questions. Your Ipod has certain setting features that you can play with to make downloading eaiser. But she's 12, I think let her have it and well, she will be done in no time.

But how do you go about putting videos onto your card. Can you just click and drag stuff out of your itunes library and drop them off in the Removable Disk "g" folder? If not please tell me in detail!

Depends on what songs you're talking about: a. If you're talking about the songs you bought from itunes store, you need to burn to cds and import them. Blame it on apple's DRM. b. If you're talking about songs you already had (mp3s which you ripped from your own cds, etc), you just drag and drop that folder in to the zune software. No cd burning necessary.

It's definitely compatible with iTunes to some extent. I use iTunes to rip my CD's because iTunes automatically finds the music info. Then I drag and drop onto my sansa. As to the songs bought off iTunes, they are AAC music files so you would have to convert.

Yes you can. You can put music on any type of CD ,DVD, even dual layer DVD. Doesn't matter. Because most devices will read it like some DVD players will read the musical can on DVD discs and all computers will play it. Only thing is if you expect to play music on a portable CD music player or a CD player in the car you'll have to put music on a regular 700mb CD and just so you know I never buy music discs because 700mb data discs are the same when it comes to music.

For my purposes (to back up elderly LPs), I use CD-RWs (rewritable CDs) in my machine, then transfer them to my computer (into iTunes). Then, I can move them to my iPod, if desired.

Help - anybody. I bought an 8gB i Pod so I could copy music to my hard drive using i Tunes and then copy to the i Pod, so that i could listen to my music, already bought and paid for.When i Tunes captures the CD, if it shows the title and all the names of the tracks I can successfully get it onto the i pod. But if it simply shows eg. 10 tracks with no artist or track names it will not copy to the hard drive.Question: are some CDs copyright protected in some way? If they are it seems a shame as all I want to do is play the music on a different medium
