[Ham-Computers] RE: Apple Ipod

[Dale Miller]

Duane
    As Aaron said he would have to download Itunes from 
http://www.apple.com/itunes
and Install the Windows drivers to recognize the Ipod.
He also has to goto http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ and get the Dock 
connector not sure if you need a driver if you use the dock connector.
If his Ipod came with a CD then it should contain the necessary software 
to use the Ipod.
Ipod will only work with Itunes that I'm aware of.
Hope this helps

Regards
Dale Miller, KC2CBD
