Help me out….I’m out of touch with technology! - Help.com

Get an MP3 player. Most just attach to a USB port and you can drag/drop music onto em.

Ipods often you need to go through hell to get software and to get music onto em, then after that often need certain type of battery “which sure can be recharged but still” with a mp3 player you can often just toss in a new battery in your pocket or whatever.

Not to mention mp3 players are often much more affordable.

Uh, I’m not that good with technology (Just woke up from a hundred year sleep a few weeks ago), but it seems that in order to get music into one, you need to plug it into the computer with a cord, then copy the music files onto it as if it were a disc or USB. Or maybe not. Maybe you need to put it into some special folder, but that should come with the instructions manual.

Get one which is cheap but not too much?
Or actually, don’t get one at all cus we’re all gonna die anyway and don’t keep our materialistic fortune?

whatever you decide to purchase put it in your pants and that ought to cure the not being in touch thing. the ipod certainly looks way more versatile than a simple music player but what do i know im currently pimpimg a payphone

hey i did offer an opinion… isnt that all you asked for? you are so demanding pep, i don’t know why i try :-(

You can pimp a cell phone into a payphone. They have the technology.

*scratches the paddle off of the list*

yah, skip the paddle, i prefer to be emotionally blackmailed into doing things…

mp3 player… i prefer creative zen over the ipod. i was a former ipod user. don’t like it.

video conferancing center
and any other number of things u can put out of your back pocket
of genious
or desire

for an iPod you need to have iTunes installed, and thats the only programme you can use to update your ‘pod.
MP3 players generally you can just plug into anything usb and drag and drop music files.
means all that illegally downloaded music is yours for free :)
iPods are probably a bit more user friendly in terms of the actual device, and the newer gen. ones you can put movies etc.
iPods also charge by pluggin em in by USB, a lot of MP3s run on batteries.

perrrrrrrrrsonally, i have an iPod, and much prefer it :)

ipod
or get an iphone…that’s what I want to do one day when I have $

you need to buy songs on i-tunes and you transfer it from the computer. you can get songs for free too if you want contact me on facebook

To be technically correct: an iPod is an MP3 player

In any case though, any mp3 player will do, and usually it’s just a matter of hooking it up to the usb, and then dragging and dropping songs… pay a teenager $5 to show you.

Also, get a good pair of headphones or earphones, the ones that come with cheap mp3 players usually suck…

I also have gone the iPod route. It may seem intimidating at first, but I promise you can get the hang of it. I got two for my mother and father (who are elderly) and taught them how to use it. Despite how technologically handicapped you think you are, if my parents can do it (“Joe, what’s this internet thing?”) I’m sure you can too. The simple fact you are using a site like Help.com already puts you miles ahead of them. I could also help you out with any questions you have.

iPod, the classic one i guess, but it’ll be hard if you don’t have itunes program. Mp3 player is simplier, just copy and paste your music to the device.

All this new fangled technology stuff, stick with the old gramaphone thingy.

I am fine thankyou, hoping you are as well. Another thing is to listen to stuff on youtube.
The music on those technology things is without all those nasty horrible hissy sounds from the scratches on the records lol. just doesn’t sound the same at all.

Naughty girl, I saw that “you wished your bed shook” comment. Will not be here very often. I have taken all my friends of my friends list. That so that they will not get annoyed at me for not answering invites.
If I decide to come back more often, I will put the ones left, back on my friends list.

If you must have an mp3 player, then I suppose it’s ok.

Well when you get back, my latest post on here will take you to this http://www.theperfectpicture.org.uk/i… If you use windows, double click on the video screen when the video is playing, it will go to full screen mode. I think the children might like it as well.

Yes, if I make a friends list again, I will be sure to put you on it. I mostly do my gardening and look after my own and other websites.

Get you one of those fancy Zune thingies. My current ipod is giving me hell when i try to add music to it. As far as I know, a zune doesn’t crash… And by the way LP’s rock!

Just look at what I found for you. It comes with all instructions and technical jargon. No batteries or electric needed and because of the way it works, could even help to keep you fit.

i prefer iPods. they can be expensive depending on the kind you get, but i think they’re worth it. iphones and itouches are the best, but they might be too much. in which case i would get an ipod nano. i like the ipod nano generation 4 the best, but generation 3 isnt bad either.

look, i,ll dig my ghetto blaster out for you, couple of new valves, off you go
