How Do You Eject Your iPod From a Mac? (3 Steps)


Locate the iPod icon in the left-hand column of the iTunes window on your computer screen. To the right of the icon, you'll see a small circle with a triangle inside. This is the eject button. After all of music, video or photo files have finished transferring, click this button. An alternative is to look on your computer desktop for an iPod icon. Drag the icon over your recycle bin or trash can to eject the iPod.
Check the computer display and the screen of your iPod after you have clicked the eject button. After a few seconds, the iPod icon will disappear from iTunes' left-hand column, and your iPod will display 'OK to disconnect.'
Pull out the USB end of the white cable to disconnect from the computer. Squeeze both sides of the white cable's base before pulling it out of the iPod.

How to Use a Macbook


Connect the MacBook's power supply by attaching its MagSafe connector to the port in the top left corner. The power supply plugs into any power outlet. If you need more cord length or a more secure connection, disconnect the plug prongs from the power pack and connect the included extension cord with a grounded plug at the end.
Turn the MacBook on by pressing the start button, which is in the top right-hand corner of the console. It has the standard power symbol of a circle with a line through it.
Navigate the MacBook's available applications on the dock located at the bottom of the screen. The standard programs on a MacBook include the calendar program iCal, the web browser Safari, the music-sharing program iTunes, the media player QuickTime, the online photo album iPhoto and iLife, which creates media files through iDVD, IMovie and Garage Band.
Open the Finder window in OS X by clicking the smiley-face icon at the dock's far left end. You can access your files in this window, which are organized by downloads, movies, pictures, music, documents and more. You can also search hard drive devices and other places with the lists on the far left.
Click on 'Applications' on the left side of the Finder window to search through all the applications on the MacBook, including the ones not seen on the dock. If you want one of these programs on the dock, drag the icon onto the dock and the icon will be added.
Access System Preferences by clicking on the square icon with gears. In this window you can set up and customize things such as the security settings, parental controls, software updates and wireless networking.
Connect peripheral devices to the MacBook using any of its four available ports. The MacBook comes with two USB ports, a FireWire port and a mini-DVI port. These are all on the computer's left edge with the power connector and Ethernet port. Audio input and output ports are on this side as well.
Insert CDs or DVDs into the disc drive on the computer's right side. The drive will read all CD-ROMS with Mac-compatible software, along with music CDs and DVDs. While all MacBook drives have a DVD player, they don't all have a DVD recorder. Check with the dealer for your model.

How to Sync iPod with Multiple Computers (4 Steps)


Download iTunes onto your computer. Connect the iPod to your computer. A warning comes up that says 'This iPod is synced with another computer. Do you want to sync the iPod with this computer? All data will be lost.' You have the options of clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel.' Click Cancel.
Select your iPod in the 'Devices' section of the iTunes left navigation panel. In the main iTunes browser window, select the 'Summary' tab. Check the 'Manually manage music and videos' option. This deselects the automatic sync settings for the Music, Movies, and TV Shows tabs. Automatic syncing for Podcasts, Photos, Contacts, and Games can be individually disabled by selecting each of those tabs. Click Apply.
To manually add music, audiobooks, movies or TV shows to your iPod, choose one of these categories under 'Library' in the left navigation panel. Select the items you want. Drag and drop them onto your iPod icon listing under 'Devices. To add an entire playlist, select it in the navigation panel and drag it onto your iPod in the same manner as an individual song. When you are ready to disconnect the iPod, select it under 'Devices' and click the eject icon.
With manual managing enabled, the iPod becomes like any other USB device. Thus, the iPod must be manually ejected in iTunes before disconnecting.

How to Play a Mini Disc


Open the drive you're using for your mini disc and put the disc inside with the center hole pressed over the tray's center spoke. If it's a music disc, put it into a CD player or CD drive. If the mini disc is a DVD disc, you'll need a DVD player or a computer's DVD drive to play it properly. For this we'll assume that you're using a computer's drive and not a DVD or CD player.
Close the tray. Left-click the 'Start' button and then left-click the 'Computer' option that comes up. A window showing you all of the components on your computer should come up, including the drive with the mini disc inside.
Double-left-click the drive with the mini disc in it. If the disc is a DVD disc or a CD, it will attempt to start playing the content on the disc using the appropriate program such as Windows Media Player.

How to Put Songs on an iPad (5 Steps)


Download and install iTunes from Apple's website if it is not already installed on your computer. Open iTunes from the 'All Programs' section of your computer's Start menu.
Select 'Add Folder To Library' from the 'File' menu. Go to the folder on your computer that contains your music and click 'OK.' ITunes will automatically add all of your music to your iTunes library. Repeat this step for each separate folder on your computer that contains music. If you have one folder on your computer that contains all of your music subfolders, you only need to select the folder that contains the subfolders, not each individual subfolder.
Plug the rectangular end of your iPad's data cable into an available USB port on your computer. Plug the other end of the cable into your iPad. Click on your iPad's icon in the 'Devices' section of the left side panel.
Select the 'Music' tab near the top of the screen. Check 'Sync Music.' Select 'Entire Music Library' to move all of the music on your computer to iTunes. Select 'Selected Playlists, Artists, and Genres' to only move certain files. Check items in the 'Playlists' and 'Artists' boxes to transfer them to your iPad each time you connect it to your computer.
Click 'Apply' to apply the changes and transfer your computer's music to your iPad. Select 'Merge Data' to merge the new content with the content that is already on your iPad.
