Apple MB029ZP/A Watching and Listening to Podcasts, Listening to Audiobooks, Using the Equalizer

Using the Equalizer

You can use equalizer presets to change the sound on iPod classic to suit a particular music genre or style. For example, to make rock music sound better, set the equalizer to Rock.

To use the equalizer to change the sound on iPod classic:

mChoose Settings > EQ and choose an equalizer preset.

If you assigned an equalizer preset to a song in iTunes and the iPod classic equalizer is set to Off, the song plays using the iTunes setting. See iTunes Help for more information.

Watching and Listening to Podcasts

Podcasts are downloadable audio or video shows you get at the iTunes Store. You can listen to audio podcasts and watch video podcasts. Podcasts are organized by shows, episodes within shows, and chapters within episodes. If you stop watching or listening to a podcast and go back to it later, the podcast begins playing from where you left off.

To watch or listen to a podcast:

1From the main menu, choose Podcasts, and then choose a show.

Shows appear in reverse chronological order so that you can watch or listen to the most recent one first. You see a blue dot next to shows and episodes you haven’t watched or listened to yet.

2Choose an episode to play it.

The Now Playing screen displays the show and episode information, along with elapsed and remaining time. Press the Center button to see more information about the podcast. If the podcast includes artwork, you also see a picture. Podcast artwork can change during an episode, so you might see several pictures during the podcast.

If the podcast you’re watching or listening to has chapters, you can press the Next/Fast-forward or Previous/Rewind button to skip to the next chapter or the beginning of the current chapter in the podcast.

For more information about podcasts, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help. Then search for “podcasts.”
