MP3 players: Getting started with your MP3 player Moving music from your computer to your iPod

If you’ve bought a new Apple iPod, you’re sure to have downloaded Apple iTunes, the software that stores and manages your music and video.

Once you’ve added songs to your iTunes music library, either by buying them from the iTunes store or copying them from your favourite CDs, the next step is to transfer them onto your music player. Our short video shows you how to do this with clear, easy-to-follow steps.

Our video guide shows you how to synchronise your iPod and iTunes automatically so that it updates each time you connect your music player. We also demonstrate how to manage your music manually by selecting individual tracks and playlists to add to your player. We show you how to delete unwanted tracks from your player, too.

Once you’ve transferred your favourite songs to your player, you’re free to listen to them on the move.
