I have a MAC ipod but am wanting to use it to transfer music onto it from a windows xp system.

I have installed the system updater software for windows but when I go to update, it says that the ipod is not connected. I therefore cannot restore/update my ipod.

The ipod was originally used on a mac, but when I checked the about screen, it displays "format windows."

Is there a way of formatting the disk so that windows will recognise it? or am I wasting my time.

Alternatively, does anyone know of any specialists in the UK that can convert my mac ipod to a pc ipod?

Hope that someone can help!!!
