That's 7.3, but it really doesn't make a difference. I'm running 7.0 because that's the only version you can skin the shit out of your iTunes, but that's another story.



Enjoy.

Yeah go to an apple store (they are amazing)
but if you want to update to other people's library's, then all you have to do is set it to "manual update" or something to that effect, that way you can drag the songs you want onto your ipod, and if your friends delete songs you can still keep them if you want.
Also, you can use multiple computers and expand your music collection...the only drawback is that if you have to reformat your ipod, all the music goes away and it may be hard to collect it again.

You should contact Apple's technical support line. In Canada it's 1-800-263-3394. In the U.S. or other countries you can call 1-800-My-Apple and get the number.

Your absolute best bet would be to go to apple.com and see if there is an Apple store near you. Why? their staff can show you how to get it to work on the spot.

Do any of your friends have Windows XP or Vista? if so they can download Itunes 7.4 on their machine and you can go over and have them program your songs for you.

This might be a headache because if they add/remove songs on their Itunes that you wanted kept you're stuck with their playlists and yours are deleted each time they re-sync there own Ipods and or yours.

Do you or your parents have a laptop computer? You can download Itunes 7.4 to that and program your Ipod. Bottom line call Apple directly because they're the experts at getting these issues handled in a snap. I see no reason why you can't get your Ipod Classic to work even with the issues you describe.

Once you do get set up send me a private note. I own an Ipod Classic and can help you set up cover flow and most other features.
