25, 2011 / Dave Taylor / iPod and MP3 Player Help, Windows PC Tips and Help / 3 Comments My brother gave me his Apple iPod Nano because he’s now just using his iPhone and it’s sweet, but it’s paired to his Mac. I have a Dell laptop running Windows 7, tho, and want to put my music on it. What’s the easy way to reformat it and start from scratch with my iPod? Though it may not seem like it, your iPod has a hard disk inside of it, which means that it has to be formatted so that the appropriate computer operating system can read it and understand what’s on the drive. And that means that, yup, there are Mac-friendly iPods and there are PC-friendly iPods, depending on how they were configured when first setup. Fortunately, if you’re willing to wipe it clean of all data, this process can be reversed and a PC-formatted iPod can become a Mac-friendly one and vice versa. This is what you need to do with your own iPod Nano because it’s not that it’s paired to another computer that’s the problem (though that is a problem) but that it’s paired to another computer and that computer was running a different OS to you. No fear, though, once you get past the warning windows that are going to pop up fast and furious when you plug it into your Dell Win7 PC, it’s not too bad a process. Again, though, a warning: this process deletes everything on the iPod. If you want to save stuff, you’ll need to enlist your brother’s help (or just ask him to email you the songs you really like). When you first plug in the iPod Nano to your Windows 7 laptop, Windows itself will detect a device that isn’t formatted for its OS and complain: This you can safely ignore. Click on “Cancel”. What you want is for iTunes to reformat the device, not Windows. Speaking of which, I trust you have the latest copy of iTunes installed on your PC? If not, then grab
