pages 18 and 19 are all about connecting and disconnecting the ipod from the computer... and where do i get the "save playlist function?"
Go to
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/ and download the iPod User's Guide if it differs from yours (??). It's there on pages 18-19. To make it easier, I've cut-and-pasted in somewhat sloppy fashion:
Making Playlists on iPod
You can set iPod to play the songs you want in the order you want. When you create a list of songs on your iPod, the songs appear in an On-The-Go playlist.
To create an On-The-Go playlist:
1 Highlight a song and press and hold the Select button until the song title flashes.
2 Repeat step 1 for other songs you want to add.
3 Select Music > Playlists > On-The-Go to view your list of songs.
You can also queue entire lists of songs at once. For example, to queue an album, highlight the album title and press and hold the Select button until the album title flashes.
To play songs in the On-The-Go playlist:
- Select Music > Playlists > On-The-Go and select a song.
To remove a song from the On-The-Go playlist:
- Highlight a song in the playlist, and hold down the Select button until the song title flashes.
To clear the entire On-The-Go playlist:
- Select Music > Playlists > On-The-Go > Clear Playlist.
To save On-The-Go playlists on your iPod:
- Select Music > Playlists > On-The-Go > Save Playlist > Save Playlist. The first playlist is saved as New Playlist 1 in the Playlists menu. The On-The-Go playlist is cleared. You can save as many On-The-Go playlists as you like.
To transfer On-The-Go playlists to your computer:
- If iPod is set to transfer songs automatically (see page 28), and you create an On-The-Go playlist, the playlist automatically transfers to iTunes when you connect iPod. You see the new On-The-Go playlist in the iTunes Source list.
