OK I give up - HELP!

[Dawn]

So Adrian bought me an ipod touch for Christmas and I've only just figured out how to get it out of the packaging.

What does it do and how do I get it to do it? :unsure:

[Dorothy]

I thought that an ipod touch meant that you just have to *touch* it and it works :unsure:

It does EVERYTHING! It's an apple product :yes : leave it alone and it'll get the washing and ironing done all whilst playing some relaxing music for you :D

Or alternatively, set wifi up on it and browse the internet, get your email etc.

Attach it to itunes via usb and copy some music onto it :)

[Dawn]

It does EVERYTHING!

Will it get Adrian's car unstuck from my front garden. :nono:

My iphone helped my friend recover her car the other day :lol:

[Dawn]

The car isn't lost. It's firmly embedded in the grass in my front garden. :thud:

no but you could download the google app and speak into it to find a tow truck! there is an app for everything :thumbsup:

[lisaw]

I would close the curtains if I were you and play doodle jump instead :yes:

[Dawn]

Is this right?

I can download books on to this thing? :unsure:

[Keith]

books, music, apps all sorts of things! :yes:

[Dawn]

Oooooooh shiny new toy. :D

[Ursula]

I want the olden days back sobs..............

[Dawn]

OK I bought an audiobook from itunes and it's on my pc - how on earth do I get it on to the shiny thing.

[Britchick]

attach it with cord to ocmputer open itunes and in menu on left click on my ipod or whatever its called on your puter and sync

[Dawn]

Thank you. We were nearly at the divorce proceedings stage there.

[Britchick]

it may come up automatically - can't remember what it did to start with. You will love it

[josh.p.]

You have two options; auto-sync or manual sync.

I prefer manual so that I can manually manage my music (I often rip CD's for Dad to put on his iPod and don't want them on my iPhone).. but if you just want EVERYTHING on your iTunes library on your touch.. then an auto sync is good :)

To manually manage your music, audiobooks etc... click on your iPod item in the devices part of iTunes, and check the 'manually manage music and video' box.. then press sync so that it updates your setttings. That way you can drag-drop music onto your iPod.

Otherwise keep it on automatically sync and when you connect your iPod, just click sync and it will transfer songs between your iPod and computer so that your librarys match :)

[Dawn]

Got it! :thumbsup:

So far got my music on there, an audiobook thingy with 200 classic books on it and when I swing it around it sounds like a light sabre.

And Adrian has connected it to our network so I can Facebook from the cloakroom. :rotfl:
I like this. :D

[Dawn]

Ohohohohohoohohoho I found a Star Map app. :mental:

[Skywatcher]

So when you say *cloakroom* do you mean you have a room full of cloaks? :unsure: or do you mean something else?... any pics of you in the "cloakroom" would help us.

[Skywatcher]

Surfing on the bog is a definite plus of the iphone/itouch range that has not been fully explored in its adverts as yet, you certainly cant take an imac into the loo with you :D

[Britchick]

i'm glad it's not just me :tongue:

[Skywatcher]

iPood

[Dawn]

I've downloaded this space map thingy so now when I'm walking the dog and I see a shiny thing in the sky I point the itouch at it and it will apparently tell me what it is.

[Claire]

If you'd got it earlier Jamie Oliver would have told you how to cook your beef. :yes:

[catrancher]

Got it! :thumbsup:

"Ahhh... another victim", says Tom as he sneaks about looking quite diabolical! :laugh2:

This is fraught with possibilities for the "Hello, I'm a Mac" campaign. Perhaps you can claim royalties! :mental:

:laughhard: :ROFL:

Tom (:macwave:... softly humming the melody to "Another One Bites the Dust"!)

[Dawn]

Are there Disney apps? :unsure:

[catrancher]

Are there Disney apps? :unsure:

Oh... a few! :D

These are the ones that were actually created by Disney (http://itunes.apple.com/nl/artist/walt-disney/id284888248)

There are others. Just search in iTunes for Disney then choose the Apps section of the results. :thumbsup:

Tom (:macwave:... corrupting another one)

[Dawn]

[josh.p.]

We could have average wait times for key attractions based on the date? :)

[Skywatcher]

Any chance mouse on the move can be incorperated somehow or maybe even something similar but just from the app?

[Skywatcher]

You can now check out the geocache app. It is however not cheap. Not sure if the itouch has gps :unsure:

[catrancher]

Tom?!!?! my cocoa delegates aren't delegating!!!! ;)

Tell me you're not serious! :unsure:

Tom (:macwave:... fight organized crime: Re-elect no one!)

[Keith]

Tell me you're not serious! :unsure:


I did indeed have a delegate that seemingly wasn't being called at the right time but it's working now :yes: now firmly into socket coding and looking at core data for iphone which wasn't even there last time I looked but apparently is now!

[Skywatcher]

Woosh!

[Dawn]

:unsure:

[catrancher]

[Dawn]

I think the novelty is wearing off. Have only purchased one song today. :lol:

[Claire]

Dawn! Have you got the 12 days of Christmas App from iTunes? You get a free gift every day from Boxing day until 6th Jan. Today's was the Trivial Pursuit game. Fantastic!
