How to reformat to use with Windows not iTunes please
Tekst:
Hi
My son just gave me his old 6th gen 120GB iPod classic. I don't have a Mac, nor do I use ITunes, but I have a boatload of music on my PC in a variety of formats: MP3 FLAC, WMA etc. that I would like to upload to this ipod and manage it from my PC.
Can I do this please? I would assume I need to reformat the drive as it's an actual hard drive, but would I need to use NTFS or FAT please? Unfortunately, knowing those acronyms is the extent of my computer knowledge - not even sure how I know those, lol.
I understand from Mac users that ITunes is all-invasive, and tries to overwrite - oops, I mean Sync - every time you plug it in. I would assume I would not have that problem with a PC?
What sort of software could I use to upload the music please?
Any tips on this greatly appreciated
Thanks very much
Phil
