If you listen to part of a podcast or audiobook, your place in the story is included if you sync the content with iTunes. If you started listening to the story on iPod touch, you can pick up where you left off using iTunes on your computer—or vice versa.

For more information about using iTunes to get music and other media onto your computer, see “What You Need” on page 5.

Manually Managing Content

The manually managing feature lets you choose just the music, video, and podcasts you want to have on iPod touch.

Set up iPod touch for manually managing content:

1Connect iPod touch to your computer.

2In iTunes, select iPod touch in the sidebar.

3Click the Summary tab and select “Manually manage music and videos.”

4Click Apply.

Add items to iPod touch: Drag a song, video, podcast, or playlist in your iTunes library to iPod touch (in the sidebar). Shift-click or Command-click to select multiple items to add at the same time.

iTunes syncs the content immediately. If you deselect “Manually manage music and videos,” the content you added manually is removed from iPod touch the next time iTunes syncs content.

Remove items from iPod touch: With iPod touch connected to your computer, select the iPod touch icon in the iTunes sidebar. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the icon to show the contents. Select a content area, such as Music or Movies, then select the items you want to delete and press the Delete key on the keyboard.

Removing an item from iPod touch doesn’t delete it from your iTunes library.

Important: If you delete an item from iTunes, it will also be deleted from iPod touch the next time you sync.

Transferring Purchased Content to Another Computer

You can transfer content on iPod touch that was purchased using iTunes on one computer to an iTunes library on another authorized computer. The computer must be authorized to play content from your iTunes account. To authorize the computer, open iTunes on the computer and choose Store > Authorize Computer.

Transfer purchased content: Connect iPod touch to the other computer. iTunes asks if you want to transfer purchased content.
