I unplugged it but I was able to see the I Pod and the playlist it had. I will check for the scroll area the next time I doc it. How do I backup what's already there?

Hmmm...have you looked in ITunes to see if it shows up. Look in the source list--since you don't know what it's called, yu should arrow down through the choices until you find something unfamiliar--like ipod or "name"'s ipod.If you find that, then you might be able to view the info about it bytabbing to the right. (or control-arrowing to the right.) If you find "scroll area" when doing this, then interact with it and you might find the serial number and such. At this point, you'll probably have to get sighted assistance sync-ing it to your itunes. But if you are able to get to this point, you'll most likely be able to click on the "restore" button whichwill allow you to clear the ipod and see how much memory is actuallyavailable on it once the stuff is erased. Don't click on "restore" thoughif you want to keep what's already on the ipod. -----Original Message----- From: macvoiceover-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:macvoiceover-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of vashaun jones Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 4:21 PM To: macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [macvoiceover] Used I Pod Listers if I have a I Pod that was given to me and I know nothing about it, where do I start? Here are some questions that I have. 1. I can see it in the finder and it says in the get info that thecapacity is 3.78Gb. Is this really a I Pod that was made with only 3GB?2. What needs to be done in order to backup what's on it and start fresh? 3. How can I find out exactly what model, firmware and capacity is? 4. How do I start navigating it? It has a screen, so I know it's not a shuffle. It's about a three quarters of a inch thick and about two and a half inches long with a section under the screen that reminds me of my Apple remote.
