 Looks nice, but very unhelpful July 25, 2008
Although I have the most up-to-date version of iTunes on my Mac, what the iPod description doesn't tell you is that you need a certain version of Mac's OS X system in order to use the iPod. This important piece of information is buried on Mac's website and not in the product description here on Amazon or with the iPod itself. So when I plugged my iPod in, eager to begin downloading to it right away, I found I had to spend another couple of hours updating various other pieces of software first. Not what you want after spending 100+
In fact, the instructions that come with the nano are next to useless.
On the plus side, when you (finally) get it working it is very nice and is probably worth 4 stars - I just felt I had to knock one off for the frustration
Somewhat frustrating (iTunes)... July 6, 2008
I bought this for my daughter (11) as she was keen on it. Despite the 'glamour' of iTunes and Apple itself (and being PC literate), we find navigating transfers (music and movies) really quite frustrating, with required 'ejections' etc and songs not synching properly in an intuitive sense. It is surprisingly much less intuitive than I expected (-iRiver's Drag and Drop is SO much simpler and effective). After several days, we still find video transfers erratic and had to do manual transferring to get it onto the iPod (then we lost what was already synced, though warned somewhere). Moreover, I got Apple's "white screen of death" at the very beginning and had to reset the iPod to solve the defect (losing our first data). There is a measly manual with the packaging so you have to get onto the web to sort out your problems.
The much promoted iTunes Store (which seems to be much easier to access from within iTunes than our own iPod) goes through the purchase procedures before telling me that downloads are not possible for my country (Sri Lanka)... waste of time! It also asks for credit card details (though I did not purchase anything) which was unexpected; I only wanted to set up an account to try out the Store for my child without entering card data or having this as default in case she accidentally ordered something.
The hardware is definitely "sexy", and it is a neat player. But it is a pain that it can only be charged when your PC is switched on - we did not know that at purchase or installation. Battery power is also poor, a few hours on audio (many MP3 players do much better).
Overall, not impressed despite the lovely looks (and fragility) of this well known gadget. There does not appear to be any continuing defect as such on the machine; our frustration seems more on the software. I would prefer iRiver in most respects (which is also much more 'open' - less proprietory limitations - in what it reads and transfers), much as I would like to like this device.
 AHHH June 5, 2008
I love my ipod. I use it every day. It got me through all my revision and i dont know how i lived without it. But this week it has stopped working on me and im fairly sure that this is the worst day of my life. Can anyone tell me how to fix my ipod?? It wont turn on and if it does, it turns off again before i can do anything with it. It sometimes wont even turn off!!! Its really confusing and i would love to know if there is anyone who knows where i can get it fixed?? in Northern Ireland. This is the most amazing bit of kit and the most used Christmas present anywhere!! I need it!! Please Help me!!

Might be small, but it's not exactly mighty. April 22, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
When my sister got one of these babies for christmas I thought, whilst it cost nearly 4 times as much as my mp3 player, it also had 4 times the memory, and it also was compatible with itunes and syncs with the computer to allow teh same playlists on the player and teh computer itself, so after 4 months I got one myself, and having never use my sister's, I was quite unimpressed. The headphones, whilst having good sound quality, are far to small for my ears, so they are not held in place very well, and they don't rest close enough to my inner ear, meaning it has to be turned up to full volume, which means not only I am listening to it, but everyone in a a 10 feet radius is aswell. Also it doesn't adjust all tracks to be teh same volume, like my computer does, menaing whenever certain songs cme on, I'm deafened. The final moan is that the only way the cover flow can be viewed is by album, which is not good for me because I list my songs by artist. So alot of moans, but the 3 stars are for it's size, it's fair price, and the sync-ability with itunes.
