66 Tips and Troubleshooting
If You Want to Use Your iPod With a Mac and a Windows PC
If you are using your iPod with a Mac and you want to use it with a Windows PC (or
vice versa), you must restore the iPod software for use with the other computer using
iPod Software Update (see “iPod Software Update and Restore” below). Restoring the
iPod software erases all data from iPod, including all songs.
You cannot switch from using iPod with a Mac to using it with a Windows PC (or vice
versa) without erasing all data on iPod.
iPod Software Update and Restore
Apple periodically updates iPod software to improve performance or add features. It is
recommended that you update your iPod to use the latest software.
You can choose either to update or to restore the iPod software.
• If you choose to update, the software is updated, but your settings and songs are not
affected.
• If you choose to restore, all data is erased from your iPod, including songs, files,
contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. All iPod settings are
restored to their original state.
