I'm a long time Apple user and I use my i-tines with i-pod the most. I realize I no longer need a computer. I want a Chromebook, how do manage my music? Will I still be able to use my i-pod?

Google allows you to upload up to 32GB of your own music using the Google Play Music app then retrieve that music on any Google Android compatible device. This software is completely compatible with iTunes and Mac, and in fact, it is how I move music from device to device. Upload it to Google Play Music servers, then download on any Android device I want. You can also stream if you choose to save space on your HD. Very similar to the premium use on Spotify app, you can even upgrade to the premium membership paying $7.99 a month and have access to Google's entire library of music to download or stream at your pleasure.

I just spoke with an Apple rep as I am also frustrated with Cover Flow. He said to: (1) plug my ipod into my computer / iTunes(2) go to my nano's Summary page (where you can see the storage space or refresh the unit, etc)(3) click on the Music tab(4) uncheck Display Artwork-- I hope that helps!

Yes. It's a full on real computer - not a tablet. I have over 10,000 songs in my iTunes.......but I am running out of memory so I have dumped them to an 2TB external drive.

I don't know about i-tunes but the internet radio works really well. But this is dependent on your internet connection as well

This was my favorite mp3 player, but the updates became obsolete, so I had to find a new one. Right now, I have the Sansa Clip+ 8 gb mp3 player and love it. It is not as glitzy as the ipods or even the E280, but it gets the job done -- that is if you only want to play music on it. Otherwise, you will have to find another player. I am not sure about the Macbook download issue, so I can't answer that part of the question. Sorry. Hope you find the answers you are seeking.

I've heard it is, but I just did it. I submitted an email to the apple support team and they sent me links addressing how to legally move your music library from one computer to another. Bottom line... It can be done. Don't let the rumors scare you out of purchasing an I-Pod.

My experience was that I did just that....plugged in my ipod cord and played the music, no extra app required. However, two things happened: a) the ipod's battery was depleted (for some reason, I expected one of the two-pronged cords would provide a charge) and b) the system's preset buttons became unresponsive to the touch. I unplugged the ipod and reset the preset buttons and I've had no problems at all since then (several months ago) - however, I haven't bothered to use the ipod since then. It may have had nothing at all to do with b).....

I always use audacity for the PC. It's the best and free. I've found garage band to be best on the iPad but I think it costs like 5 bucks. Hoped this helped!

Thank you for your advice. That's something they don't list in the instructions. I went and got one and love it. I suppose I still have to keep it in "manual" and not in "auto sync" ? Or does it matter as long as I keep it in the iTunes playlist?

It should be whatever the ad says. Bear in mind that the OS alone takes up at least a few gigs of that number so you're getting closer to 60GB. I have about 7000 songs, aps, a few photos/videos on my 64 and keep getting close to or over the capacity. The problem is that iTunes is very cryptic and sometimes just goes crazy and you have to reset your device. Turn off Find My iPhone and reset your passwords etc, AND Very IMPORTANT: turn back on Find MY IPHONE again or somebody can get away with stealing your device! Backup your ipod often and good luck

You can't add memory but it holds a good amount of music. Yes you can add/delete songs as long as it's hooked up to your MAC / iTunes. I do it all the time. User friendly depends on how well you know how to use iTunes with your ipods ;o)

I stream music stored on my external HD through the hub to my iPad. Hope this helps.

Sorry unfortunately you will need to use iTunes. All Apple products require it. However you can just drag and drop within itunes to it... Good luck

It works like a jump drive, so if all your music is in mp3 format and if your chromebook works with jump drives should be good.

The only other possible hassle could be Apple's iCloud. If you really use it you'll be good but I don't. Because of that I had to go into setting and turn off all the iCloud things. I run a PC with Microsoft Office so all my contacts, mail accounts notes, etc. are on my computer, not in the cloud. Even all my music and photos are on my computer. Yes iTunes backs up everything to the cloud also but for it to work for me and get all my stuff on my iPad I had to disable the iCloud in Settings and load everything from my computer. I hope this helps keep you from the hassles I initially had. :-)

Help - anybody. I bought an 8gB i Pod so I could copy music to my hard drive using i Tunes and then copy to the i Pod, so that i could listen to my music, already bought and paid for.When i Tunes captures the CD, if it shows the title and all the names of the tracks I can successfully get it onto the i pod. But if it simply shows eg. 10 tracks with no artist or track names it will not copy to the hard drive.Question: are some CDs copyright protected in some way? If they are it seems a shame as all I want to do is play the music on a different medium
