It should optimize the photos to fit the screen since it's just pulling a cache of the iPhoto library.

Cool. I hope this is the case.

I'm new to the whole iPod thingy. I have a Nano and I hear it can hold pictures. I can't figure out how to transfer photos onto it and I was wondering if I need some other accesory…

You do this (somewhat counterintuitively) using iTunes.

It also depends on whether you have a Mac or PC. On the Mac, it will work through iPhoto (although the setting itself is done through iTunes). Or you can also use just a folder ful…

With the iPod nano, you also have to limit the amount of songs since otherwise there isn't any space left for photo's. Took me a sec to realise what went wrong the first time. Then…

The 5th gen were the ipods that all got color screens, were a little slimmer, and dropped Photo name, and the video iPods are the 6th gen, right? Thanks

nope. every click wheel iPod was 4G. Video is 5G. edit: I should say, every click wheel full-size iPod before now was 4G. video is now 5G, and the mini had its own couple of gener…

No, the Photo/color iPods were still called 4th generation. The 5th generation iPod can play video.

Thanks!

I understand that this is the accepted way of listing the generations, but doesn't it make more sense that the iPod photo is the 5th Generation - I'd say that it's the biggest jump…

Famous criminal analyst - CNN - wife is murdered. This is pretty sad. Wonder who did it? I guess it's a hazard of your job that you would be hurt - or your spouse or children …

That is very sad Cody. Thank you for bringing it to our attention. There is just a lot of evil in the world. Al we can do is to be the beat that we can be.

And maybe they'll end up dead in the process too. Besides, we live in a community where everyone is on camera, all of the time, so I'm not too worried.

A good security system would probably help you more than a gun... but a gun is cheaper.

Hi I have a 3rd gen 15 gig iPod, and i wondered if anyone knew the speed at which the hard drive spun at?

The disk used in those was the Toshiba MK1504GAL, which had one platter and a rotational speed of 4200rpm.

The directories seem to get messed up. When I record in 8khz mode, (on my 4G iPod) the recordings automatically import to iTunes, and they can't be found on the iPod "Recordings" …

I thought iPod Linux didn't work on the 4G iPods yet.

I have a powerbook, just wondering if I can use an ipod drive in the slot.
