Since the inception of iTunes, the iPod (the best-selling portable digital music player), and iTunes Music Store (Time magazine's Invention of the Year for 2003), Apple has taken the world of digital music by storm. The Absolute Beginner's Guide to iPod and iTunes, Third Edition, provides all the information that music and media fans need to get the most out of these amazing digital devices and tools. From the basics of listening to audio CDs to advanced customization of music on an iPod, this book equips even those who have never explored digital audio to master their digital music by using these awesome tools. The book covers both Windows and Macintosh platforms to reach the broadest possible audience. The book is organized into two major parts, with each focusing on an element of the iPod, and iTunes and finally a third part focusing on the iTunes Music Store. Along the way, it explains how all of these tools work together and shows readers how to get the most from them. It progresses from very basic topics in a logical manner to lead even absolute beginners on the path to musical mastery. Introduction . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 Part I The iPod . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 1 Touring the iPod . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 92 Getting Started with an iPod . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 193 Controlling an iPod or iPod nano . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 334 Listening to Music on an iPod or iPod nano . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 495 Listening to Music on an iPod shuffle . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 676 Building an iPod’s Music Library . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 737 Using an iPod to Listen to and Watch Podcasts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1018 Using an iPod to Listen to Audiobooks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1159 Using an iPod to Store and View Photos . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12710 Using an iPod to Watch Videos . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 14311 Taking the iPod Further . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15512 Configuring an iPod to Suit Your Preferences . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 17713 Maintaining an iPod and Solving Problems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 193 Part II iTunes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 209 14 Touring iTunes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 21115 Getting Started with iTunes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22116 Listening to Audio CDs and Internet Audio with iTunes . . . . . . . . . . 23117 Building, Browsing, Searching, and Playing Your iTunesMusic Library . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25518 Labeling, Categorizing, and Configuring Your Music . . . . . . . . . . . . 27919 Creating, Configuring, and Using Playlists . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30320 Subscribing to and Listening to Podcasts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 32921 Working with iTunes Video . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 34522 Burning Your Own CDs or DVDs . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 36123 Sharing iTunes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 37724 Maintaining iTunes and Solving Problems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 395 Part III The iTunes Store . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 409 25 Touring the iTunes Store . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 41126 Configuring iTunes for the iTunes Store . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 41927 Shopping in the iTunes Store . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 43528 Working with Purchased Content . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 45929 Solving iTunes Store Problems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 473Index . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 479
