With iPod touch, Apple's sleek little entertainment center has entered a whole new realm, and the ultimate iPod book is ready to take you on a complete guided tour. As breathtaking and satisfying as its subject, iPod: The Missing Manual gives you a no-nonsense view of everything in the "sixth generation" iPod line. Learn what you can do with iPod Touch and its multi-touch interface, 3.5-inch widescreen display and Wi-Fi browsing capabilities. Get to know the redesigned iPod Nano with its larger display and video storage capacity. It's all right here. The 6th edition sports easy-to-follow color graphics, crystal-clear explanations, and guidance on the most useful things your iPod can do. Topics include:

• Out of the box and into your ears. Learn how to install iTunes, load music on your iPod, and get rid of that dang flashing "Do not disconnect" message.

• Bopping around the iPod. Whether you've got a tiny Shuffle, a Nano, the Classic, or the new Touch, you'll learn everything from turning your iPod off and on to charging your iPod without a computer. Special coverage for iPod owners with trickster friends: How to reset the iPod's menus to English if they've been changed to, say, Korean.

• In tune with iTunes. iTunes can do far more than your father's jukebox. Learn how to pick and choose which parts of your iTunes library loads onto your iPod, how to move your sacred iTunes Folder to a bigger hard drive, and how to add album covers to your growing collection.

• The power of the 'Pod. Download movies and TV shows, play photo slideshows, find cool podcasts, and more: this book shows you how to unleash all your iPod's power.

• iPod is simply the best music player available, and this is the manual that should have come with it.

'iPod: The Missing Manual' by Jude Biersdorfer is the perfect reference for all iPod fans, users, and geeks alike. With 250+ pages of material spread out over 13 chapters, you will learn all the ins and outs of your iPod and iTunes better than ever before!! From the basics like general usage of your iPod to learning how to use iTunes to import music and add to your library to creating playlists and working with photos and videos, this truly is a gem. Now in its 6th edition, this newest iPod book covers the newest iPod-like iPod, the new video iPod nano, and it describes what makes these newest generation players so amazing!! Full color, glossy paper, wonderful content and a size that fits perfectly in your hand (yes this DOES make a difference), this is an absolute home run of a book by Pogue Press.

If you want to get the most out of you iPod and/or iTunes and want to have fun doing so, pick up this wonderful sidekick to your Apple world and enjoy!!

A handy manual to have - 2008-04-18

I order this manual hoping it would provide some detail on how to use an iPod Touch, and orient me to Apple products in general (this is my first Apple product). It has provided great information, in an easy to read and understandable format. It tells how to do all of the functions with an iPod both for PCs and for Apple computers, and makes it easy to understand. It covers everything that I think is possible to do with all iPod models. I would highly reccomend this book to anyone wanting information, tips, and instructions for an iPod.

iPod: the missing manual - 2008-10-21
Reviewer Rating:
book is helpful considering there was no manual given when I purchased the iPod touch. I use it often while I am learning to use this new toy.

I purchased this book because I was not happy with the information available on my IPos Nano but I really didn't learn much from the book. Most of the information either was not pertinent to my Nano or was info I could find out without the book.
