Songs on iPod without iTunes

**Head Tax** · 04-27-2008, 03:48 PM

I was wondering if it would break your iPod to put songs on it using the method that you can view them without iTunes and then just copying and pasting? Sorry if it's hard to understand but I can't think of any other way of explaining.

It wouldn't break the iPod, but i'm pretty sure it wouldn't play those songs.

**Head Tax** · 04-27-2008, 03:53 PM

No thanks I am trying to do this without installing in software.

Ok. If you want to view your songs without iTunes enable "Disk Mode" in itunes and your iPod will show up in My Computer as a removable disk drive. So go into it and be sure you enabled hidden files and folders and go look for your music. But the songs will be named differently

Yeah I thought you wouldn't understand. I know how to do that I was wondering if it would work if I copied and pasted the songs into those folders with the weird names.

ORRR...Install Rockbox or IpodLinux then your ipod will work as any other plug and play mp3 player.

No I want to be able to do it without any software using the way you can view the songs by enabling hidden files to be seen. I am the only one that knows how to see the songs without iTunes?

**Head Tax** · 04-28-2008, 02:25 PM

I know that I was wondering if it would wreck my iPod to copy and paste music to there.

XBannedX · 04-28-2008, 02:39 PM

lol it will not work.. you cannot take off music or add music if you do you will corrupt it's library and will have to use itunes anyways to fix it. you are more then welcome to put all the music you want to anywhere on the ipod you want fact is it won't show up. it has to be synced with itunes.

**Head Tax** · 04-28-2008, 02:59 PM

Okay thanks.
