Does Quicktime pro convert dvd to ipod formats? I'm thinking about purchasing it or at least something that would be able to do that. Too much time to kill. Anyone know a great program to do this??

Nah, bro. I use ImTOO DVD to iPod Converter 4. If you need it, hit me up.

There are a couple ways to do it. I have a step by step tutorial saved on my PC at home. Can't remember where I got it, but I'd be glad to e-mail it to you. Just PM me your e-mail address.

Re: Official iPod Thread

what's a nice replacement set of ipod earbuds? Mine broke and I can't find official apple ones in any stores. Best buy only had the weird inner ear canal ones.

I'm looking into getting an iPod, mostly for working out, what do you recommend? I was thinking the shuffle...

If you still have the 1-year warranty, you can go on the Apple website and request headphones from some certain section of the site... forgot exactly how, but go to the iPod section and dig. You'll need your serial number. And I believe it's free too, you don't even pay shipping as long as you're still under warranty.

If you're a runner, I'd highly recommend getting a nano and then getting the Nike+ running sensor. I have it, and I can honestly say it keeps you motivated to run, tracking your time, distance, calories burned, etc. The online interface is really cool too. Best $30 I've ever spent. You don't have to buy the Nike shoes, you can find cheap clips or straps that work on any shoe for $5-10 dollars.

If you do get the nano, you'd probably need to buy a clip to use running and at the gym. You can find some pretty inexpensive clips. But if you don't run, the shuffle seems like a pretty good option, especially with a built in clip.

Does the Nike+ only work with the Nano? i happen to already have the shoes, but no Nano. Will it work with a video?

I think, but not sure, it only works with the Nano. Maybe someone else could more definitively answer. I'd definitely recommend a Nano over a Video iPod if you plan to use your iPod while moving though, such as exercising.

Re: Official iPod Thread

Yeah, im not really that big of a runner, so I think I may just go with the shuffle...Does anybody here have one?

Re: Official iPod Thread

So here is the story, I was playing softball on monday slide to field a ball and when I landed it was on my ipod. The screen busted, I tried to see if it would still play music but it would not. So I opened it up just to see what was going on. Anyway I got it in August, dont have a receipt, and I was wondering if I could still send it to Apple or whatever for the one year warranty?

Or does not having a proof of purchase and it has been opened void the warranty?

Re: Official iPod Thread

I think you're out of luck. No receipt and popping open your iPod... well that's not good; there's no way for you to verify that you bought your iPod within the last year, and even if you did have the receipt, you've just voided your warranty by opening the thing. Might be better to look for a repair shop that does this type of thing.

It only works with the Nano unfortunately.

Besides the fact you opened it up, I don't think that you breaking the screen of your ipod is covered by a warranty....I think you're just out of luck on that one

Re: Official iPod Thread

Yeah I bought a new one the next day but figured I would see if I could get a free ipod out of the deal. But I called Apple and when I told them how it broke they said they wouldnt fix it. This makes three Ipods in less than a year.
