I got an iPod as well

I have got some songs on but when I have tried putting some cds onto my computer to put onto my iPod, but they download as a WMA file rather than Mp3 and it won't let me put them on, so how do I get them into Mp3 so I can get them on my iPod then

Salty · **Posted:** Mon Dec 29, 2008 6:01 pm

Use something like Audacity - just Google it - that'll convert the WMA to MP3. Sorted.

what about DL'ed songs?
why wont they work?!

You've got issues Salty, probably your PC, my DL'd music works perfectly. iTunes should convert them automatically.....??

Use Itunes to convert your CD's not Windows Media Player

As yloop said, use iTunes not Media Player.

your default player will be set as Media Player..... change it to iTunes...

I already had dozens of cds on my computer before I had the iPod, maybe I will use Mr Gighas idea

I an got an iPod and that's what I've done, I just converted them onto Itunes and synchronised my iPod after they were all on. I've got over 600 songs on already.

How would I do that then? I am currently putting converting on I Tunes but it seems to take quite a while to do it

Matty_Robson's_Chin · **Joined:** Tue Mar 13, 2007 12:57 pm **Posts:** 2155

It depends on how quick your computer is, my laptop takes about 2 seconds to convert a song.....

PJ_Poolie · **Posted:** Mon Dec 29, 2008 7:31 pm

On iPods now I've taken all the songs I want off my CD's and I've used my Itunes vouchers, can anyone suggest perhaps a file sharing type of site were I can maybe download songs more 'freely!' if you get what I'm saying!

i-Pod changed my life! I now leave the house every day with 14,500 songs (and still loading the stuff) which at 10 songs per album is 1,450 albums. Play it in the car, in the steet, on my portable speakers in hotel rooms at work or on holiday or in the garden. This is not just any music machine this is an Apple music machine and it cannot be beaten in any way shape or form - the Real Madrid of portable music. Persevere and be happy. Merry Christmas :grin:

I'd recommend getting a ticket like, cos his[tkasg] gigs have a tendency to sell out - especially at the old knights venue!

Have you downloaded iTunes yet Mr S? bbolt

On there click file in the top left corner and from the drop down menu select add file to library or add folder to library.

Plug your iPod in and that should appear half way down the left hand side, then just drag and drop from the library onto the iPod.

Well thats how I done it anyways

Salty · **Posted:** Wed Dec 31, 2008 2:17 pm

aye, done that fensoir......still aint having it!!!

also I cant locate the 'e'file thing in my computer to drag and drop...

bloody annoying, especially as he sks every 2 nano-seconds if his ipod worhs yet!

I don't even have to do that, I just leave my iPod unplugged from the computer until I've put my new music files/cd onto Itunes then plug the iPod in. It automatically synchronises my iPod with my Itunes library without me having to do anything, an absolute piece of piss!

Salty · **Posted:** Wed Dec 31, 2008 2:27 pm

well why doesn't it fookin do that on mine?????

Sounds like it's syncing with an empty folder.

When your Ipod is plugged in, go to the Summary part of your Ipod via Itunes.

Set it to manually manage music (Should be just a tick box on the Itunes Ipod Summary page).

Then drag and drop the music into your Ipod from your PC using Itunes.

No more syncing, but it may work.

If it does work and you want to go back to automatically syncing every time you plug in, just set the sync folder to the place you store all your music on your PC.
