Product Description

Product Description

iTunes and the iTunes music store isn't just for Mac fans anymore. Anyone running Windows XP or 2000 can now cash-in on all the capabilities of this music store-jukebox. Our new version of iPod & iTunes: The Missing Manual has been thoroughly updated and refreshed to reflect these changes. The iPod is the world's bestselling music player. But if you think that it's just a music player, then you must think Clark Kent is just a newspaperman. In this book, New York Times tech columnist J. D. Biersdorfer blows open the secret doors of this gleaming, chrome-and-white beauty. With humor and authority, she lays bare an astonishing collection of useful tips, tricks, and shortcuts like these: iPod as PalmPilot. The iPod can suck in your calendar, address book, to-do list, and notes from a Mac or PC, and then display them at the touch of a button. It also doubles as an alarm clock and stopwatch. iPod as hard drive. You can use your iPod to carry gigantic files from place to place. iPod as e-book. The iPod makes an excellent book reader, capable of scrolling through recipes, driving directions, and even Web pages. iPod as GameBoy. The iPod's games are perfect time-killers for waiting rooms, bus rides, and the Department of Motor Vehicles. iPod & iTunes: The Missing Manual is much more than it seems, too. It not only covers all iPod models for both Mac and Windows, including the super-slim 2003 series, it's also the ultimate guide to iTunes and the new iTunes Music Store. No matter what kind of music moves you, iPod & iTunes: The Missing Manual will help you get much more out of your iPod--and much more into it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 24 May 2004
By D&D - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I originally mistakenly had the earlier edition of the book which I promptly returned when I found this later edition. The book promises much but in reality there is very little that you cannot find in the manual (slim though it is) apart from the resetting procedure. I found the diagnostics section unusable - maybe the software is now a later version and no one tells you how to get out of disc mode. Had a quick look at Secrets of the iPod - seems to be a superior book in every respect.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not essential..., 25 April 2004
To sum up, this book does give helpful hints and tips, but isn'tessential. You could probably find out most of the info in forums or fromApple direct with a simple, quick e-mail. Good content, the thing is, doyou really wanna pay for this information?

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this..., 11 Jan 2004
By JR (the Netherlands) - See all my reviews
...if you own an iPod, or are planning to buy one... this book is about everything you need to set up your own music collection using iTunes 4 (Mac) or MusicMatch Jukebox (Windows), and enjoy it anywhere using your iPod.

It is divided into various parts: Introduction (What is an iPod?), The Hardware (Meet the iPod, The iPod Sync Connection), The Software (Digital Audio Formats, iTunes for the Macintosh, Musicmatch Jukebox for Windows, The iTunes Music Store), Beyond the Music (iPod as Address Book, Calendar and Hard Drive, iPod Games and eBooks, iSync) and Extreme iPodding (Connecting to other audio systems, Hot Hacks, Cool Tools, Troubleshooting and more), followed by the appendixes which clearly describe the use of iTunes and MusicMatch.

This is just THE book on the iPod and related matters. Furthermore, the language used is pleasant and it can make you smile at times. The paper is of good quality and feels good to the fingers.

Make your iPod time a pleasant time with this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Does what it says on the tin!
Quite simply, if you have an iPod, you need this book! I consider myself computer-savvy, but got stumped trying to set things up by intuition alone. Read more
