IPod WiFi help please - It's driving me mad!!!

Question

Ok here's my problem. I have just bought my very first iPod and I have no idea how to work it and what I am doing (I am only 26 - I know I should already know about this!)

Basically here is the situation: I have bought a brand spanking new Ipod touch - 8GB and I want to put some (not all like it's trying to make me!) of my tunes on it. I have ITunes 7 but I don't know how to choose which tracks I want to put on there. It keeps asking me to sync the ipod - which I say yes to, but then it tries to stick all of my tracks on there!

My second problem is the wifi connection. I am currently connected to the internet on my home PC using the Orange livebox broadband. It has a wireless connection and I have already set it up to connect to the Wii which is downstairs. Now I have tried to set up the touch to connect to it and I think it's connected because I get the some kind of symbol at the top left corner which I think is the wifi symbol; however when I try and 'safari' it will not open a page and says that it can't connect to a server... how can this be?

I have trawled all over the internet looking for answers to this and I have no idea where to find them!

Thank you for reading this and hopefully helping me!

Answer 1

1. Turn on manual management of the iPod by plugging it into iTunes and then checking the box that reads "Manually manage music and movies" on the iPod's main page. Then hit sync. Now you can drag tracks over one at a time.

2. This is more tricky, because you're basically asking what is going wrong in a long chain of potential problems. Make sure your wireless connection is set to allow the iPod to connect. This is important if you have security set up.

Answer 2

The wifi on a touch is no good I have one and it drives me nuts to it doesn't work.
