New MP3 Player
type: item
description: My mother-in-law was nice enough to buy me an mp3 player for Christmas this year, seeing as how I've been on a fitness kick lately and going to the gym several times a week. It's not an iPod brand like my wife's is, so it's not going to use iTunes to sync the music from the computer to the mp3 player, right? Since my wife already has an iPod and iTunes on her computer, is that going to cause problems when I try to sync music on my Sony Walkman?

description: Congrats on the gift, timron. You're right about your mp3 player using another software program. I'm not sure which one Sony uses, but I know it isn't iTunes. I don't think it will cause any problems though. The first time you plug your Sony into the computer, it should automatically detect it and install the software it needs. After that, it will probably allow you to import all the music on your hard drive into that program and then sync it to the Sony. Then, whenever you plug your wife's iPod into the computer, it will sync through iTunes, and whenever you plug your Sony into the computer, it will sync through its software.

description: Thanks, iLoveiPod. I still haven't had a chance to plug the Walkman into the computer yet, but in the end, I'm sure I'm probably worried over nothing. I just don't want some type of error message that says our music can't be in iTunes AND another software program at the same time. I'll know by this evening either way, though.

I thought I would have had a chance to sync my mp3 player up to the desktop by now, but I've been so busy taking care of "after Christmas" errands that I haven't had the time. It's good to know that iTunes can handle more than just iPods, though.
