2 Introduction to itunes itunes is a popular free software package available from Apple that allows you to manage your audiobooks, music, photos, podcasts, text files and videos with ease. It is available for both Macintosh and Windows PCs, and in combination with Apple's ipod device, offers students, faculty and alum opportunities not currently available with other devices.

Using Your ipod an Overview You can add several different types of media to your video ipod, including audiobooks, music, photos, podcasts, text files and videos. Contacts and calendar entries can also be added. Music Before transferring music to your ipod, you need to have music stored on your computer in your itunes library. Remember, not all music formats are compatible with your ipod. Fortunately, itunes takes care of this and imports songs into your library in a format compatible with the ipod. However, itunes does offer options when it comes to audio file formatting (you ll find format preferences under the Edit > Preferences menu in itunes (or itunes > Preferences on the Mac). What song format should I use with my ipod? Your ipod supports several different audio file formats. However, you ll probably want to use either the MP3 or AAC format. Both file types offer file compression, which is important when using your ipod smaller file sizes = more songs on your ipod! Music stored in the MP3 file format take up less room than music stored in the AAC format. However, the quality of songs formatted in the AAC format is better than those formatted as MP3. If space is an issue, you might want to format your songs in the MP3 format. If you need to convert a song into a different format, use the Convert Selection to option available on the Advanced menu in itunes. Once the song is converted, you ll end up with two copies of your song; one in the original file format and the second in the new converted format. If you are unable to convert your file in itunes, you may need to use a different application to convert the file. Visit for a full list of compatible music file formats and information.
