Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I need help with my iPod. I'm in tears here, seriously.
My sister gave me a Nano for my birthday and I've been trying to get it to work. First, it didn't like Panther, so I upgraded my sad little G3 iMac to Tiger. But, everytime I plug the iPod in, I get the registration page, only it won't display correctly on my screen. I only get part of it, some of the page appears to be below my screen and I can't move the window up or shrink it. Also, the graphic won't appear, just a note saying I need QuickTime and a tiff reading program. Then, there is no scroll bar or anyway to see any Agree or Disagree buttons.
After fighting with this all weekend, I took the thing to work, plugged it into my new work Mac Mini and proceeded through the registration. I thought I was good, but when I plugged it back into my home computer, I get the same old problem. and I can't log in to iTunes using the ID I just created today, at work!
I just want to put some music on my iPod! What the hell do I do??

check your OS. A friend's ipod didn't work properly on her computer either and I think it was an OS problem.

I upgraded my OS already.

yes, but on the box, the nano's specs works with your new OS?
do you need to upgrade the nano's firmware?

I think I've done both of those. The new OS is right for sure, and the first time I plugged the iPod in, it did something with an update.

I have no idea what to do other than suggest a visit to the Applestore with the iMac and nano and cable in hand. It may just be that the iMac is too outmoded for these newfangled devices. :-(

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You could try creating a new user account on the computer, and see if iTunes works better with that one.
