windows media to put songs onto my ipod
can I use windows media to put songs onto my ipod
Assuming you mean Windows Media Player ...... no.
iTunes, or there are a few other third party applications/plugins available.

If you have music on your windows media player it can all be transferred onto itunes. I had loads of windows media tracks and when I originally set up my ipod it tells you a way to convert your files over. It is a simple process but quite time consuming.

Why the hell would you want to do that..? Download iTunes - WMP is a crock of s-hit.

If the music is already in MP3 format, you don't need to do any conversions at all. Just ask iTune to add the folder to it's library
The ipod can play music in MP3 format. All my tracks are still ripped to MP3 format

Well, I quite like it, when playing music through my PC, I like to use WMP, I only use iTune to organise my music in my ipod

Be warned that this will make the sound quality even more crap than it already is. If you're moving over to iTunes then it's best to start afresh, delete your Windows Media files and then rip using iTunes to MP3 or AAC. If you still want to be able to play your music in WMP then choose MP3.

Media Monkey remains the best and most versatile program for managing large MP3 collections and synching with ANY portable device, including iPods.
It allows you to Rip to any of multiple formats, easily convert between formats, has hands down the best TAG manipulation features (a must if you have a large collection) and it's free! (Although the gold version with a few extra features is an extra $10)
Stay away from Windows Media manager, there are too many issues.
