I just got a mini ipod and the applecare. I was wondering how do I start? Is the applecare a cd disk and do I just register online? do I have to charge the mini ipod first? I know I'm suppose to plug the thing in the back of my computer, but where? What do I do after? What if I have songs downloaded from limewire how do I get it into the ipod? Sorry for all the questions! Please Help!

The thing with the computer's "on" button and the D & E drives, and the floppy drive? On the back, on the bottom, there should be a few ports. One has the FireWire symbol, and one has the USB 2.0 symbol. Plug in your iPod cable to the appropriate one. And the CD, you put it in the D drive (the one on top of the front of the CPU) to install iTunes. Hope I helped, have fun with your new iPod! And also, LimeWire is illegal. Don't use LimeWire. At all. Ever. For your own sake. Use iTunes. [ Dakmor's advice column | Ask Dakmor A Question ]

Before you can use the iPod mini you will have to charge it for how long it says in the book [which I think might be 12 hours]. You plug the USB into the USB slot, which will probably near your ethernet port [jack that looks like phone line but its for cable internet]. Once you plug it in, you want to insert a CD that came with the iPod and run it.
First the songs you downloaded from limewire you need to find the folder they are in. Once you find the folder, right click on the songs and open the tab that says 'open with', then hit 'iTunes'. Once you have updated your iPod with the CD, plug your iPod in and it will automatically update the songs if they are in your iTunes library. Hope that helped [ HectorJr's advice column | Ask HectorJr A Question ]
