A:AnswerThe operating system uses a little less than 10 gb. That leaves 118 gb for whatever uses. If only using it for music, we were told that 1000 songs would use approximately 4 gb, depending on length. If my calculations are correct that would mean approximately 29500 songs ((128 - 10)/4 = 29.5 x 1000). I have about 5800 songs on mine and have used less than 25% capacity.
A:AnswerWe purchased the 128 GB iPod a few months ago. Of that 128 GB, the system uses approximately 9 GB. Apps we have added, approximately 4 GB. And music files we added used approximately 30 GB (around 5000 songs). So we have approximately 85 GB remaining. Loads of space available for additional music and/or apps.
A:AnswerNo subscription is *required* to play music on an iPod. A couple of ways to do it without paying a monthly subscription:
1. Music you've bought on iTunes as aac files (like mp3s) from Apple, even before getting this iPod, would automatically download to the iPod once you connected it to the Internet and enabled the new iPod in your Apple account.
2. If you have mp3 or aac files on your PC or Mac, for example after ripping CDs to the computer, you can use iTunes to transfer copies to the iPod, and listen to those for free.
An *optional* subscription is available to Apple Music, and if you pay for that after a free trial, you can download music to your iPod and listen to it *as long as* you pay the subscription fee each month. A huge amount of music in all genres is available this way. Then you don't have to rip CDs or buy mp3s. BUT... if you stop paying the subscription, all music you were listening to as part of the subscription is removed from your iPod. The Apple Music subscription rates are $5 a month for a student, $10 a month for a non-student, or $12 a month for a family sharing one subscription and listening to different music on different devices. I prefer owning CDs and mp3s, but an Apple Music subscription is very convenient and worth considering. For some people, it's a better deal. You can combine both your own mp3 or aac files with an Apple Music subscription on the same iPod, if for example you have some favorite old CDs that are not available in Apple Music.
A:AnswerYes, if your old iPod can still connect to a desktop or laptop computer, you can transfer the photos to your computer hard drive and transfer the CD tracks to iTunes. You can then connect the new iPod to your computer, and upload the photos onto the new iPod from the computer and upload the CD tracks from iTunes.
A:AnswerNope, but you can use iTunes radio if you subscribe. Or stream Amazon Prime music, if you have an Amazon Prime account and have set up your music. Lots of options for streaming, but no old fashioned am/fm radio.
A:AnswerWell first you should do your research. A simple MP3 player just does that....plays music. I have one that is very reasonable at $30.00. I download tunes from my computer & listen that way. It fits into my shirt pocket. But knowing teens, this 12 year old most certainly would like an IPOD. They are pricey depending on the memory chosen. This player does so much more than the old MP3 player! It basically is a mini computer. Read the information about all that it has to offer. Be prepared to spend some money on this. I have a 8yr old grandaughter who wants the IPOD too. I hope this helps Cinderella. I know you have good intentions.
A:AnswerIt will work. I loaded one about 2 years ago from the PC iTunes library. I have not done the one I just bought. I'm planning to load it after I give it for a Valentines present. This unit is a lot better with more features, especially the voice control.
A:AnswerYes, you should be able to transfer all the information from the old one to the new one. If you have iCloud set up it’s the easiest way. If not you should be able to sync through iTunes.
