I have this great, great 80G iPod, that I use extensively for music and videos.
So far, I have been "managing" it from the iTunes on my XP machine.
The sync setup I have is that music and videos are managed manually, and contacts are sync'ed with outlook.
Now, I recently purchased a MacBook (black) to use to actually manage my music collection. Now that I have transferred all the files, updated the tags, etc... I want the iPod to sync its music from the iTunes library in the MacBook.
Note, I am not asking how to get the stuff in the iPod out of it...
What I would like to know is what will happen to the VIDEO files currently in the iPod if I set it to sync its music (and only the music) with the powerbook ?
I have gone so far in iTunes that I set the settings I want for the music, then I get a dire warning that 'All existing content on the iPod "name" will be removed and replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library.'
Is it just that the 'language' has not been updated since iPod g4, and I can safely assume my video files (and contacts, etc...) are safe if I sync my music with the Mac?
Thanks for any comments. I am sure that others have faced the same dilemma before...
