I used a program called XPlay but it wasn't free. Maybe anapod will do a similar job, XPlay is a way of transfering music without all the extra iTunes stuff that you may not want for basic use. Oh and its accessible but I say look at anapod first because I think its free.

Hi YusufWith the utmost respect to what Brian does, the problem with scripts for Itunes that he produces is that every time there is a JAWS upgrade, then scripts have to be written to keep up with that version. I just want to be able to plug my Ipod into my PC and transfer across any stuff I want to load onto it. Is the feature to do this within Windows Explorer, so it comes up like an external hard drive, a free utility?I'd be very interested to hear of other peoples' experiences with this and the Itell. I was impressed with what it did on an Ipod Cobolt were demonstrating. I don't have an Ipod, but I could be tempted if I could access the software appropriately.Jackie Cairns Braille Support Adviser Email: Jackie.Cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Sight and Sound Technology Ltd Welton House North Wing Summerhouse Road Moulton Park Northampton NN3 6WD Telephone: 0845 6347979 or Telephone: 01604 798070 Fax: 01604 798090 Web: www.sightandsound.co.uk -----Original Message-----From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of YusufSent: 18 July 2008 09:57 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Sight VillageHi jackie, I haven't done this for quite a while but I used to use Anapod explorer to transfer stuff from my computer to the Ipod.But with the scripts that Brian's done for Jaws and ITunes I think it is possible to do the same using ITunes.Before those scripts were written it was possible to transfer your entire music collection but I wasn't able to find a way to be selective in what I transfered or to do anything more advanced than simply getting it on to the IPod.Someone I know has bought the ITel and I will be interested to know what they think of it.Yusuf ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <cairnsplace@xxxxxxx> To: "Access UK Mailing List" <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 18, 2008 6:43 AM Subject: [access-uk] Sight Village Hi All Can I just thank all those who came to say hello at Sight Village this week. It was lovely to put voices to some very familiar names on the list.I didn't get much of a chance to wander around because of strutting my stuff on the Sight and Sound stand, but I did have enough time to pop over to the Cobolt stand, and look at their new ITell gadget. For anyone who doesn't know about this, it is a small device that plugs into the bottom of an Ipod that enables us mortals with little or no sight to use the Ipod with speech. I thought this was a really interesting gadget. It doesn't work on either the Shuffle or Itouch, but all the other models seem to support it. The only thing that concerns me, however, is how one would transfer material from their PC to the Ipod if Itunes software isn't accessible. Perhaps some who do this already would like to elaborate as it might potentially be a stumbling block.The ITell retails at £59.95 I believe, but I thought it was the most interesting gadget other than the K-Reader phone, of course! (smile).Anyone else see anything interesting and "different" this year?
