An Mp3 Player Question.

<< < (5/18) > >>

Spinless:
I have to say, if you have problems with iTunes on a mac, that's probably your own fault. If you're having problems with it on a PC...it's probably you're own fault.
If your PC crashes, then it's not the fault of iTunes. Your PC is just crap. I can't run iTunes on m PC very efficiently, but it's over 7 years old. Even without iTunes on it, the PC is slow and crap.
My friend, has a nice PC. Not very powerful, but he has a lot of space and keeps it clean. He runs graphic intensive software, over 20 firefox tabs, torrents, soulseek, several IM clients AND iTunes. At the same time. With multiple users. He crashes maybe once a week, when he opens more youtube tabs and firefox stops responding.

There was also that period he kept trying to use AIM...
It turned out that AIM kept installing viruses with it's installation package.
That happened a few times when I had that Sony mp3 player...
THAT fucked up my other computer (the newer one)
And after about 2 weeks of trying to get my Zen V to work with PC and getting countless errors which stopped the player from working, I just gave up on the PC altogether.
iTunes is just about the only program that hasn't fucked that PC up.
It ask to update every few weeks, but that's to stop it from fucking up, right?

Not the files on your computer, the files on the iPod. Last time I checked (I admit, it was a while ago) the folders were all labeled (seemingly) random things, with the song files in the folders labeled equally mysterious things.

And yeah, I was one of the few who had constant problems with the iPod, no one else I know had quite as much trouble with it.

TheFuriousWombat:
I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. The ipod interface simply replicates whatever is on your computer. If you have everything tagged correctly on the computer, the organization on the ipod itself should be pretty much perfect. I know it has been on all of my iPods anyway.

StaedlerMars:
Oh, right, what I meant was when you plug your iPod in, and then open it up manually (as in on the computer, without iTunes, not to physically open it up), then have a look at the way that the music is organized internally. I guess it's to prevent people from just plugging in their iPod in someone elses computer and just copy and dragging all the files across.

It's not a big deal, there's software to work around it, but with other mp3 players you can just click and drag whatever files into the necessary spot on the actual player, and it just works. You don't even need another media player. With the iPod you do.
