Apple - iPod Classic Black Digital Media Player — 

I had no idea that the battery was supposed to last 36 hours for music, mine only lasted 6.  Someone else who owned an ipod let me know.  I took it to Best Buy to get the battery replaced and they thought it should only last 6 hours also.  They looked it up on the website and found out that it should last 36 hours.  Another problem; I had over 19,000 songs on my Ipod before I got my battery replaced.  I don't keep my music on my computer's hard drive so I had to buy some software to take my music off of my Ipod before I lost it.  Thank the software gods for that because all 19,000+ songs were erased and had to be put back on.  It took me 4 months to get all my music back on.

The reason why I needed the program is because I don't keep my music on my computer and I didn't download any of it from Itunes. Apple's customer service told me that if I bought my music from Itunes then I would have no problem taking my music off of my Ipod and putting it back on. Since I have my CDs and I didn't save my 80GB worth of music to my computer, I had to buy a portable hard drive and that software.

Thanks I will try; I have had problems with my Ipod where some of the songs dont play and such and I want to restore the whole thing; I hate to, but I may have to. I have all of my songs on the computer with ITunes so it shouldnt be so hard to do.

Best Buy suggested this software called TunesPlus and it worked like a charm. I had a couple of problems putting the music back on however. I had most of the album art for my music on my Ipod, most of that did not come back on. Also, the software saves the music by genre, so I had to put each song back on almost individually. I do recommend the software because it was a lot easier than getting all my CDs back together and importing them back on to my Ipod. Hope this helps.

I have a question on what you used to save your music; I have my songs on Itunes and such and am thinking about having another outlet as well; I have about 1200 songs on there right now. any suggestions on the software?
