iPod Users - How do I do this?? - GoFuckYourself.com

Donny · 09-01-2004, 06:24 PM

My lady and I like to listen to the iPod using the car stereo. We both have our own iTunes accounts on our computers. I want to be able to put songs from my iTunes account onto the same iPod that has songs from HER iTunes account. I've heard there is some sort of 3rd party program that lets a person do this.

Anyone know where to find it?

We use both Mac and PC. When we plugged it into the PC, it wanted to format the drive.

Any more input, or is this too serious a thread for GFY?

I bought a device at Best Buy, manufactured by a company called Belkin. It will play through the radio on several different stations, or you can by a cassette adapter if your car has a cassette player.

ah, if its a mac ipod, won't work in a PC, and probably vice versa. Both of mine are mac ipods, which i why i have no trouble.

Your best bet is to either backup all your files from the mac Ipod.

Format it as windows then load all the songs.

Or depending on how many songs you have, you can burn them to CD, then use Itunes's import feature to re-rip them into non DRM controlled music files then move them to the ipod.
