My IPOD is finally working

[gr8fl4porsche]

Finally dumped the POS I-tunes software and purchased Anapod Explorer. I have been playing with the new software for 2 days now and haven't once wanted to throw the pod out the window. I can't understand why the genius' at Apple cannot design an interface which works with windows. Very frustrating.

FYI - 80gig Video pod

In their commercials, Apple makes fun of MS concerning all the updates. Apple has updated I-tunes numerous times since the first of the year, and it still sucks.

Using a combo of Anapod Explorer ($25), Audiograbber (free) for ripping and Videora Converter (free) for converting movies and videos to mp4- the pod works and I am enjoying it!

iTunes is not meant to work on a PC. I think the plan all along was to deliver it full of bugs, blaming it on PC, and hoping to get converts like Mike (though he has other requirements).

I've updated iTunes more than 5 times now and it's still a buggy app. At least we can get music on my son's nano but no pictures, playlists, or pod casts. We are not alone. My son's travel baseball team (12 kids) has 3 kids with iPod shuffles/nano's that are locked up or never worked. I recommended they UPGRADE to Anapod b4 tossing the iPods.

I bought my daughter an ipod about a year and a half ago. iTunes crashed her laptop and my PC. Fast forward a year, and this Christmas she bought me an iPod. I installed iTunes and haven't had a single problem or hiccup. I can't explain it, and I'm not complaining.

I have not had a single problem with iTunes on my PC. My sister has a video and we have loaded all kinds of videos, pictures and everything on it and it has worked fine.

I bought the Red Chair software (Anapod) first thing when I got my Ipod. I don't even remenber how to use the Itunes.

I rip all of my music to Standard MP3s and use it on whatever I like (cell phone, lifedrive, etc)
