Sure, we all say: bah, no one else has come close to apple's dominance in the music player and online software, we may even think it a little bit to. But face it, a lot of us are a…

I think this thing is supposed to work with Windows. I have a Dell5150 with built in 1394 Firewire. It seems to think it's a "network" connection, but, my external harddrive works…

you need to download the ipod updater from apples site, you need obviously the windows version from here: http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ This will re-format your ipod for wi…

Sweet! Thanks. Downloading now. Wow! 56MB!? I've only used this iPod with my Macs, but I don't have a Mac right now.

Hmm. Still does not see it. (I'm running the updater from C:/ProgramFiles after it installed it) My iPod battery is dead. Do I need to give it a little charge maybe? I was hoping…

Yeah, it needed a slight charge. Does not seem like the recharging feature works though. It's a small plug on the computer to a large plug on the iPod. Does the smaller plug not…

Dropped from full bars, to 2 bars to 1 bar... eek! Will it make it!>! Will it crap out before the restore!>!>! Stay tuned...

A 4-pin firewire port (which is what most windows computers seem to have) does not supply power, so the iPod can't charge from it.

My nano battery seems to wear down quickly. I could listen to my shuffle for days before recharging, but the new nano seems to be dead within a few hours. Is this normal or do I ha…

It should last at least 16 hours.

16 hours is hard to achieve. You have to completely turn off the backlight and just let the music play. Any click wheel or backlight activity will drain the battery quicker. My …

This is from the apple site about batteries: Quote: Maximum Battery Life iPod can play up to 20 hours, iPod nano can play up to 14 hours and iPod shuffle can play up to 12 hou…

Yeah I only get maybe 4-5 hours max out of it. And that was using at a gym so no changing songs etc

Hi all, My 15" MBP was repaired (the iSight camera didn't work) and when I got it back from service I was told that the problem was with the camera, which was replaced. The service…

Does the serial on the case and system profiler match?

They might have just given you a new one, I sent my iPod in to have the clickwheel fixed ( it wasn't working after only 4 months of use) and two weeks later there was a brand new o…
