Windows Forum / Windows Media / Devices / May 2008ipod
i have connected my new ipod nano to my p.c, then have inserted a c.d & copied it into windows media. Icant transfer or sync my ipod.also when i plug my ipod in to my p.c via usb i get pics & music come onto my p.c, which is what i have put on to my pod,but when i unplug my pod there is nothing on it. I am having the same problem as 'Daniel'. I used a website that came with my iPod Nano and it is a very long download. Maybe you need to download the program, too.? > i have connected my new ipod nano to my p.c, then have inserted a c.d & > copied it into windows media.

Hi! I have the same problem with my ipod, I even download the newest version of windows media player but still does not work. > i have connected my new ipod nano to my p.c, then have inserted a c.d & > copied it into windows media.

It looks like Microsoft's media player is not playing nice with Apple's ipod. I have the same problem and to tell you the truth I hate the %@#$ games. These companies don't really care about functionality and compatibility of their products its just freaking market shares > It looks like Microsoft's media player is not playing nice with Apple's > ipod. > I have the same problem and to tell you the truth I hate the %@#$ games. > These companies don't really care about functionality and compatibility of > their products its just freaking market shares I think it's really more that MS feels no obligation of supporting a device that can't natively play WMA/WMV files. Since the usual behavior of WMP is to copy WMV/WMA files to compatible players, what do you expect it do with an iPod? Autoconvert Windows Media files to Apple's formats? To MP3? Windows Media Player doesn't really support synching with non-Windows Media devices, and the iPod, despite it's huge market share, isn't a WM-device. Third-party utilities have been written to address the incompatibility issue- this one is $20, but has a 30-day free trial: http://www.mgtek.com/dopisp/ I guess my question is if you really want to use an iPod, vs. a WMP-compatible player, why not just use iTunes instead of WMP? |
