If iPod isn’t used for a while, the battery might need to be charged.

The iPod battery is 80-percent charged in about two hours and fully charged in about four hours. If you charge iPod while loading files, playing music, viewing videos, or viewing a slideshow, it might take longer.

Chapter 1 iPod Basics 13

Charging the iPod Battery

You can charge the iPod battery in two ways:

Â Connect iPod to your computer. Â Use the iPod USB Power Adapter, available separately.

To charge the battery using your computer:

m Connect iPod to a high-power USB port on your computer. The computer must be

turned on and not in sleep mode (some models of Macintosh can charge iPod while in sleep mode).

If the battery icon on the iPod screen shows a lightning bolt, the battery is charging. If it shows a plug, the battery is fully charged.

If you don’t see the lightning bolt or the plug, iPod might not be connected to a high-power USB port. Try another USB port on your computer.

Important: If iPod is very low on power, it might need to charge for up to 30 minutes

before the display turns on.

If you want to charge iPod when you’re away from your computer, you can purchase the iPod USB Power Adapter.

To charge the battery using the iPod USB Power Adapter:

1 Connect the AC plug adapter to the power adapter (they might already be connected).

2 Connect the iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable to the power adapter, and plug the

other end of the cable into iPod.

20 Chapter 2 Music Features

Loading Music and Podcasts onto iPod

After your music is imported and organized in iTunes, you can easily load it onto iPod.

To set how music is loaded from your computer onto iPod, you connect iPod to your computer, and then use iTunes preferences to choose iPod settings.

You can set iTunes to load music onto iPod in three ways:

Â Sync all songs and playlists: When you connect iPod, it is automatically updated to

match the songs and other items in the iTunes library. Any other songs on iPod are deleted.

Â Sync selected playlists: When you connect iPod, it is automatically updated to match

the songs in playlists you select in iTunes.

Â Manually music on iPod: When you connect iPod, you can drag songs and playlists

individually to iPod, and delete songs and playlists individually from iPod. Using this option, you can load songs from more than one computer without erasing songs from iPod. When you manage music yourself, you must always eject iPod from iTunes before you can disconnect it.

Syncing Music Automatically

By default, iPod is set to sync all songs and playlists when you connect it to your computer. This is the simplest way to load music onto iPod. You just connect iPod to your computer, let it add songs, audiobooks, videos, and other items automatically, and then disconnect it and go. If you added any songs to iTunes since the last time you connected iPod, they are loaded onto iPod. If you deleted songs from iTunes, they are deleted from iPod.

To load music onto iPod:

m Simply connect iPod to your computer. If iPod is set to sync automatically, the update

begins.

Important: The first time you connect iPod to a computer, a message asks if you want

to sync songs automatically. If you accept, all songs, audiobooks, and videos are erased from iPod and replaced with the songs and other items from that computer. If you don’t accept, you can still load songs onto iPod manually without erasing any of the songs already on iPod.

Chapter 2 Music Features 21

While music is being loaded from your computer onto iPod, the iTunes status window shows progress, and the iPod icon in the Source pane flashes red.

When the update is done, a message in iTunes says “iPod update is complete.”

If you set iTunes to manage music manually, you can reset it later to sync automatically.

To reset iTunes to sync all music automatically on iPod:

1 In iTunes, select iPod in the Source pane and click the Music tab.

2 Select “Sync music” and then choose “All songs and playlists.”

3 Click Apply.

The update begins automatically.

Note: If “Only sync checked items” is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only items that are checked in your Music and other libraries.

Syncing Music From Selected Playlists onto iPod

Setting iTunes to sync selected playlists to iPod is useful if the music in your iTunes library doesn’t all fit on iPod. Only the music in the playlists you select is synced to iPod.

To set iTunes to sync music from selected playlists onto iPod:

1 In iTunes, select iPod in the Source pane and click the Music tab.

2 Select “Sync music” and then choose “Selected playlists.”

3 Select the playlists you want.

4 To include music videos and display album artwork, select those options.

5 Click Apply.

Note: If “Only sync checked items” is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only items that are checked in your Music and other libraries.

Managing iPod Manually

Setting iTunes to let you manage iPod manually gives you the most flexibility for managing music and video on iPod. You can add and remove individual songs (including music videos) and videos (movies and TV shows). Also, you can load music and videos from multiple computers to iPod without erasing items already on iPod.

Note: Setting iPod to manually manage music and video turns off the automatic sync options in the Music, Movies, and TV Shows panes. You cannot manually manage one and automatically sync another at the same time.

To set iTunes to let you manage music and video on iPod manually:

1 In iTunes, select iPod in the Source pane and click the Summary tab.

2 In the Options section, select “Manually manage music and video.”

3 Click Apply.

22 Chapter 2 Music Features

To remove a song, video, or other item from iPod:

1 In iTunes, select iPod in the Source pane.

2 Select a song or other item on iPod and press the Delete or Backspace key on your

keyboard.

If you manually remove a song or other item from iPod, it is not deleted from your iTunes library.

To make a new playlist on iPod:

1 In iTunes, select iPod in the Source pane, and then click the Add (+) button or choose

File > New Playlist.

2 Type a name for the playlist.

3 Click an item, such as Music, in the Library list, and then drag songs or other items to

the playlist.

To add songs to or remove songs from a playlist on iPod:

m Drag a song to a playlist on iPod to add the song. Select a song in a playlist and press

the Delete key on your keyboard to delete the song.

Loading Podcasts onto iPod

The settings for loading podcasts onto iPod are unrelated to the settings for loading songs. Podcast update settings don’t affect song update settings, and vice versa. You can set iTunes to automatically sync all or selected podcasts, or you can load podcasts onto iPod manually.

To set iTunes to update the podcasts on iPod automatically:

1 Select iPod in the iTunes Source pane and click the Podcasts tab.

2 In the Podcasts pane, select “Sync … podcast episodes” and choose the number of

episodes you want in the pop-up menu.

3 Click “All podcasts” or “Selected podcasts.” If you click “Selected podcasts,” also select

the podcasts in the list that you want to sync.

4 Click Apply.

When you set iTunes to sync iPod podcasts automatically, iPod is updated each time you connect it to your computer.

Note: If “Only sync checked items” is selected in the Summary pane, iTunes syncs only items that are checked in your Podcasts and other libraries.

If you already have an Apple account, or if you have an America Online (AOL) account (available in some countries only), you can use that account to sign in to the iTunes Store and buy songs and videos.

To sign in to the iTunes Store:

m Open iTunes and then:

Â If you already have an iTunes account, choose Store > Sign In. Â If you don’t already have an iTunes account, choose Store > Create Account and follow

the onscreen instructions to set up an Apple account or enter your existing Apple account or AOL account information.

For more information about converting video for iPod, go to www.info.apple.com/kbnum/n302758.

Loading Videos onto iPod

You load movies and TV shows onto iPod much the same way you load songs. You can set iTunes to sync all movies and TV shows to iPod automatically when you connect iPod, or you can set iTunes to sync only selected playlists. Alternatively, you can manage movies and TV shows manually. Using this option, you can load videos from more than one computer without erasing videos already on iPod.

Note: Music videos are managed with songs, under the Music tab in iTunes. See “Loading Music and Podcasts onto iPod” on page 21.

Syncing Videos Automatically

By default, iPod is set to sync all videos when you connect it to your computer. This is the simplest way to load videos onto iPod. You just connect iPod to your computer, let it add videos and other items automatically, and then disconnect it and go. If you added any videos to iTunes since the last time you connected iPod, they are added to iPod. If you deleted videos from iTunes, they are deleted from iPod. You can set iPod to sync videos automatically when you connect it to your computer.

To sync videos to iPod:

m Simply connect iPod to your computer. If iPod is set to sync automatically, the update

begins.

Important: The first time you connect iPod to a different computer and have the

automatic sync option set, a message asks if you want to update songs and videos automatically. If you accept, all songs, videos, and other items are deleted from iPod and replaced with the songs, videos, and other items from that computer. If you don’t accept, you can still load videos onto iPod manually without deleting any of the videos already on iPod. iTunes includes a feature to sync purchased items from iPod to another computer. For more information, see iTunes Help.

Chapter 3 Video Features 33

While videos are being synced from your computer to iPod, the iTunes status window shows progress, and the iPod icon in the Source pane flashes red.

6 Tips and Troubleshooting

Most problems with iPod can be solved quickly by following the advice in this chapter.

The 5 Rs: Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore

Remember these five basic suggestions if you have a problem with iPod. Try these steps one at a time until your issue is resolved. If one of the following doesn’t help, read on for solutions to specific problems.

Â Reset iPod. See “General Suggestions,” below. Â Retry with a different USB port if you cannot see iPod in iTunes. Â Restart your computer, and make sure you have the latest software updates

installed.

Â Reinstall iTunes software from the latest version on the web. Â Restore iPod. See “Updating and Restoring iPod Software” on page 61.

General Suggestions

Most problems with iPod can be solved by resetting it. First, make sure iPod is charged.

To reset iPod:

1 Toggle the Hold switch on and off (slide it to HOLD and then back again).

2 Press and hold the Menu and Center buttons for at least 6 seconds, until the

Apple logo appears.

If iPod won’t turn on or respond

Â Make sure the Hold switch is not set to HOLD. Â The iPod battery might need to be recharged. Connect iPod to your computer or to

an Apple iPod Power Adapter and let the battery recharge. Look for the lightning bolt icon on the iPod screen to verify that iPod is receiving a charge.

To charge the battery, connect iPod to a high-power USB or FireWire port on your computer. Connecting iPod to a USB port on your keyboard will not charge the battery. You can connect iPod to a FireWire port using the optional iPod Dock Connector to FireWire Cable, for charging the iPod only. Loading information onto iPod using FireWire is not supported.

Â Try the 5 Rs, one by one, until iPod responds.

If you want to disconnect iPod, but you see the message “Do not disconnect”

Â If iPod is loading music, wait for it to complete. Â Select iPod in the Source pane and click the Eject (C) button. Â If iPod disappears from the list of devices in the iTunes Source pane, but you still see

the “Do not disconnect” message on the iPod screen, disconnect iPod.

Â If iPod doesn’t disappear from the list of devices in the iTunes Source pane, drag the

iPod icon from the desktop to the Trash (if you’re using a Mac) or click the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the system tray and select iPod (if you’re using a Windows PC). If you still see the “Do not disconnect” message, restart your computer and eject iPod again.

If iPod isn’t playing music

Â Make sure the Hold switch is not set to HOLD. Â Make sure the headphone connector is pushed in all the way. Â Make sure the volume is adjusted properly. If you see a lock to the right of the

volume bar, a maximum volume limit has been set. You can change or remove it by using Settings > Volume Limit. See “Setting the Maximum Volume Limit” on page 26.

Â iPod might be paused.Try pressing the Play/Pause button. Â Make sure you are using iTunes 7 or later (go to www.apple.com/ipod/start). Songs

purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won’t play on iPod until you upgrade iTunes.

Â If you’re using the iPod Dock, make sure the iPod is seated firmly in the Dock and

make sure all cables are connected properly.

Â If you are using the Dock line out port, make sure your external speakers or stereo

are turned on and working properly.

If you connect iPod to your computer and nothing happens

Â Make sure you have installed the latest iTunes software from

www.apple.com/ipod/start.

Â Try connecting to a different USB port on your computer.

Note: A USB 2.0 port is recommended to connect iPod. USB 1.1 is significantly slower than USB 2.0. If you have a Windows PC that doesn’t have a USB 2.0 port, in some cases you can purchase and install a USB 2.0 card. For more information, go to www.apple.com/ipod.

56 Chapter 6 Tips and Troubleshooting

To charge the battery, connect iPod to a high-power USB or FireWire port on your computer. Connecting iPod to a USB port on your keyboard will not charge the battery. You can connect iPod to a FireWire port using the optional iPod Dock Connector to FireWire Cable for charging iPod only. Transferring information to iPod using FireWire is not supported.

Â iPod might need to be reset (see page 55). Â If iPod is exceptionally low on power and you connect it to a USB port, it might

charge for up to 30 minutes before it turns on. The display could be dark for up to 30 minutes while it charges. Leave iPod connected until it charges sufficiently. If you have an iPod USB Power adapter (available separately), you can use that to charge iPod more quickly.

Â If you’re connecting iPod to a portable or laptop computer using the iPod Dock

Connector to USB 2.0 Cable, connect the computer to a power outlet before connecting iPod.

Â Make sure you have the required computer and software. See “If you want to double-

check the system requirements” on page 59.

Â Check the cable connections. Unplug the cable at both ends and make sure no

foreign objects are in the USB ports. Then plug the cable back in securely. Make sure the connectors on the cables are oriented correctly. They can be inserted only one way.

Â Try restarting your computer. Â If none of the previous suggestions solves your problems, you might need to restore

iPod software. See “Updating and Restoring iPod Software” on page 61.

Note: You can only use an iPod Dock Connector to FireWire Cable only for charging and not for loading songs and other audio and video files onto iPod.

If iPod displays a “Use iTunes to restore” message

Â Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes on your computer (download it from

www.apple.com/ipod/start).

Â Connect iPod to your computer. When iTunes opens, follow the onscreen prompts to

restore iPod.

Â If restoring iPod doesn’t solve the problem, iPod may need to be repaired. You can

arrange for service at the iPod Service & Support website: www.apple.com/support/ipod/service

Chapter 6 Tips and Troubleshooting 57

If songs or data load more slowly over USB 2.0

Â If you load a large number of songs or amount of data using USB 2.0 and the iPod

battery is low, iPod loads the information at a reduced speed in order to conserve battery power.

Â If you want to load at higher speeds, you can stop loading and keep the iPod

connected so that it can recharge, or connect it to the optional iPod USB 2.0 Power Adapter. Let iPod charge for about an hour, and then resume loading your music or data.

If you can’t load a song or other item onto iPod

The song may have been encoded in a format that iPod doesn’t support. The following audio file formats are supported by iPod. These include formats for audiobooks and podcasting:

Â AAC (M4A, M4B, M4P, up to 320 Kbps) Â Apple Lossless (a high-quality compressed format) Â MP3 (up to 320 Kbps) Â MP3 Variable Bit Rate (VBR) Â WAV Â AA (audible.com spoken word, formats 2, 3, and 4) Â AIFF

A song encoded using Apple Lossless format has full CD-quality sound, but takes up only about half as much space as a song encoded using AIFF or WAV format. The same song encoded in AAC or MP3 format takes up even less space. When you import music from a CD using iTunes, it is converted to AAC format by default.

Using iTunes for Windows, you can convert nonprotected WMA files to AAC or MP3 format. This can be useful if you have a library of music encoded in WMA format.

iPod does not support WMA, MPEG Layer 1, MPEG Layer 2 audio files, or audible.com format 1.

If you have a song in iTunes that isn’t supported by iPod, you can convert it to a format iPod supports. For more information, see iTunes Help.

If you accidentally set iPod to use a language you don’t understand

You can reset the language.

1 Press and hold Menu until the main menu appears.

2 Choose the fifth menu item (Settings).

3 Choose the last menu item (Reset All Settings).

4 Choose the second menu item (Reset) and select a language.

Other iPod settings, such as song repeat, are also reset.

58 Chapter 6 Tips and Troubleshooting

Note: If you added or removed items from the iPod main menu (see “Adding or Removing Items From the Main Menu” on page 9) the Settings menu item may be in a different place. If you can’t find the Reset All Settings menu item, you can restore iPod to its original state and choose a language you understand. See “Updating and Restoring iPod Software” on page 61.

If you can’t import photos directly from your camera

Â Make sure you have the iPod Camera Connector (available at

www.apple.com/ipodstore) and a USB digital camera.

Â If your camera didn’t come with a USB cable, you’ll need to purchase one. See the

camera manufacturer’s website to find compatible cables.

Â If photos aren’t importing, make sure your camera is turned on and set to the correct

mode for importing photos. See the instructions provided with your camera. Also make sure the cable is connected firmly to your camera and to the camera connector.

If you can’t see videos or photos on your TV

Â If you imported photos directly from a camera or card reader to iPod, you can’t see

them in a slideshow on a TV. You must import photos from your camera to your computer, and then load them to iPod using iTunes.

Â You must use RCA-type cables made specifically for iPod, such as the iPod AV Cable,

to connect iPod to your TV. Other similar RCA-type cables won’t work.

Â Make sure your TV is set to display images from the correct input source (see the

documentation that came with your TV for more information).

Â Make sure all cables are connected correctly (see “Watching Videos on a TV

Connected to iPod” on page 36).

Â Make sure the yellow end of the iPod AV Cable is connected to the video port on

your TV.

Â If you’re trying to watch a video, go to Videos > Video Settings and set TV Out to On,

and then try again. If you’re trying to view a slideshow, go to Photos > Slideshow Settings and set TV Out to On, and then try again.

Â If that doesn’t work, go to Videos > Videos Settings (for video) or Photos > Slideshow

Settings (for a slideshow) and set TV Signal to PAL or NTSC, depending on which type of TV you have. Try both settings.

If you want to double-check the system requirements

To use iPod, you must have:

Â One of the following computer configurations:

Â A Macintosh with a USB port (USB 2.0 recommended) Â A Windows PC with a USB or a USB card installed (USB 2.0 recommended)

Chapter 6 Tips and Troubleshooting 59

Â One of the following operating systems: Mac OS X v10.3.9 or later, Windows 2000

with Service Pack 4 or later, or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 2 or later

Â iTunes 7 or later (iTunes can be downloaded from www.apple.com/ipod/start.)

If your Windows PC doesn’t have a high-power USB port, you can purchase and install a USB 2.0 card. For more information on cables and compatible USB cards, go to www.apple.com/ipod.

Note: You can connect iPod to a FireWire (IEEE1394) port for charging, but not for transferring music and other audio and video files.

6-pin FireWire 400 port

(IEEE 1394)

On the Macintosh, iPhoto 4.0.3 or later is recommended for loading photos and albums to iPod. This software is optional. iPhoto might already be installed on your Mac. Check the Applications folder. If you have iPhoto 4 you can update it by choosing Apple () > Software Update.

On a Windows PC, iPod can load photo collections automatically from Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 or later, and Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later, available at www.adobe.com. This software is optional.

On both Macintosh and Windows PC, iPod can load digital photos from folders on your computer’s hard disk, and import directly from most digital cameras (using the optional iPod Camera Connector).

If you want to use iPod with a Mac and a Windows PC

If you are using iPod with a Mac and you want to use it with a Windows PC, you must restore the iPod software for use with the PC using iPod Updater (see “Updating and Restoring iPod Software” below). Restoring the iPod software erases all data from iPod, including all songs.

You cannot switch from using iPod with a Mac to using it with a Windows PC without erasing all data on iPod.

Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:

Â Limit the amount of time you use earbuds or headphones at high volume. Â Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings. Â Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.

For information about how to set a maximum volume limit on iPod, see “Setting the Maximum Volume Limit” on page 26.

Using headphones safely Use of headphones while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop using iPod if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing any other activity that requires your full attention.

Use caution when using iPod headphones with lanyards (sold separately at www.apple.com/ipodstore). Certain activities may pose a risk of injury, especially if the lanyard becomes caught or trapped.

Chapter 7 Safety and Cleaning 63

Avoiding seizures, blackouts, and eye strain If you have experienced seizures or

blackouts, or if you have a family history of such occurrences, please consult a physician before playing video games on iPod (if available). Discontinue use and consult a physician if you experience: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movements, or disorientation. When watching videos or playing games on iPod (if available), avoid prolonged use and take breaks to prevent eye strain.

Important Handling Information

NOTICE: Failure to follow these handling instructions could result in damage to iPod

or other property.

Carrying iPod iPod contains sensitive components, including, in some cases, a hard drive. Do not bend, drop, or crush iPod. If you are concerned about scratching iPod, you can use one of the many cases sold separately.

Using connectors and ports Never force a connector into a port. Check for obstructions on the port. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.

Keeping iPod within acceptable temperatures Operate iPod in a place where the temperature is always between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F). iPod play time might temporarily shorten in low-temperature conditions.

Store iPod in a place where the temperature is always between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave iPod in your car, because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range.

When you’re using iPod or charging the battery, it is normal for iPod to get warm. The exterior of iPod functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the unit to the cooler air outside.

Keeping the outside of iPod clean To clean iPod, unplug all cables, turn iPod off, and slide the Hold switch (if available) to HOLD. Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPod.

Disposing of iPod properly For information about the proper disposal of iPod, including other important regulatory compliance information, see the features guide for your iPod.

FCC Compliance Statement

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. See instructions if interference to radio or TV reception is suspected.

Radio and TV Interference

This computer equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with Apple’s instructions—it may cause interference with radio and TV reception.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

You can determine whether your computer system is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the computer or one of the peripheral devices.

If your computer system does cause interference to radio or TV reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

Â Turn the TV or radio antenna until the interference

stops.

Â Move the computer to one side or the other of the

TV or radio.

Â Move the computer farther away from the TV or

radio.

Â Plug the computer in to an outlet that is on a

different circuit from the TV or radio. (That is, make certain the computer and the TV or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

If necessary, consult an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple. See the service and support information that came with your Apple product. Or, consult an experienced radio/TV technician for additional suggestions.

Important: Changes or modifications to this product not authorized by Apple Computer, Inc. could void the EMC compliance and negate your authority to operate the product.

This product was tested for EMC compliance under conditions that included the use of Apple peripheral devices and Apple shielded cables and connectors between system components.
