Well I don't think I backed up the full resolution photos. Well, that's our arctic holiday photos gone! 'Cept the thumbnails! HEH. Ah well, thanks for your help. And gratisguy - M…

btw, it is version 3.1

Have you tried restoring (a.k.a. erasing) your iPod using the iPod updater?

thanks for replying ive downloaded both the pc and mac version of the updater (pc on pc, mac on mac). from my mac, i can "see" it in itunes, and i have dragged a few songs to it. …

right now as we speak, it is locked in the ! apple.com/support/ipod screen. or i can get it to disk mode where it locks up as well...

well, i think i got it. after trying multiple times, i got my ipod responding again. fwiw, the ipod is very tedious...the update step has to be done in a certain order, and a reboo…

assuming the menu on yours is the same as my first-generation, from the main menu choose: 設定　＞　言語　＞　English -r.

domo! domo!

My sister had the same problem with her HP iPod... came out of the box in Chinese. After bouncing around to 3 different people at HP tech support one of them knew the menu order to…

Don't you hate it when no one replies to your post? That's not to say I know the answer to your question, but at least now your thread is not wearing the "Replies 0" badge of messa…

Yeah...mine did not seem to update automatically. Weird. I gave the Nano to my wife and have not tried to figure out a solution to that, though. If nothing else, you're not alone i…

How much music do you have, and how much of it do you listen to? Tell us some more details and maybe we can help you

I gave my 15gig iPod to my wife and bought myself a Nano, so there you go. I prefer the smaller size to the space. I have all of my songs rated and very well organized into smart …

I have about 30 gigs of music on my HD. Speaking of which, can the nano be used as a portable HD?

Hi, I've got a 15GB iPod, and was going to replace it with a 4GB nano but then decided at the last minute to go with the 20GB iPod photo instead. I am very happy with my decision…

Why? Can the nano not be used as a hd?

The Nano can be used as a external HD. All iPods can be used this way, even the 512 MB Shuffle. Why get the 2GB one? Why not spend the extra $50 and get a 4 GB one? 2 GB for $20…

Because I got a 2 gig one for $150. New. I was just going to resell it, but now I'm having 2nd thoughts. If it was a 4 gig model, I'm pretty sure I'd keep that and sell the mod…

I've been trying to learn this stuff today as well. (for MPEG-2 files from a DVB TV receiver) ffmpegx is pretty easy for muxing - there aren't that many options in the 'tools'-&g…

This is easy to do in Toast. As long as the m2v and aiff are in the same directory and have the same name (as is normally the case when they are created) You just drag the m2v t…

Thanks for those suggestions.... really appreciated. I did get a bit further with ffmepg and the theory is there in that muxing does appear to be straigth forward in the 'tools' s…

Ok I've done a bit more on this: 'The Missing Mpeg Tools' has the same effect as ffmpeg... creates a file that will play OK in Quicktime but in Windows Media it jumps at the same p…

This is simple. If you have Final Cut 5, then you can use Compressor 2 to create a transport stream mpeg2. It's on pages 125 and 143 of the Compressor user manual. Good Luck, Mul…

3D as he has talked about it in the past.

Well, I'm sure it's that, but elaborate... ??? What KIND of 3D?
