iPod rules

Query from patron: Can I download music from library computers to my iPod?

Short answer: No

Long answer: Since the library computers don't have the iTunes program loaded on them, you can't download music from them onto your iPod and listen to it. However, you could theoretically download music to your iPod, using it as a USB memory device. (Theoretically, because since the library computers have Windows XP on them, if you typically connect your iPod to iTunes on an Apple Mac then connect it to a library computer, Windows will try to reformat the iPod for you; but if you typically connect to iTunes on a Windows PC, you should be O.K.) You would then have to upload the music files from the iPod to a computer with iTunes, import them into iTunes, and then download to your iPod from that iTunes to be able to listen to the music.

Confusing Ancillary: If you have an iPod Touch, you can download music to your iPod from the iTunes store using the library's WiFi connection.
