basic help needed on iPod Mini
hey all,
i recently bought myself a second-hand iPod Mini off eBay. It came with two other items: headphones and the belt-clip. No manual or instructions.
i've borrowed a Firewire-to-iPod cable off a friend and it's currently charging.
at the moment i can't seem to access the Menu on it (is this because it isn't atleast 80% charged yet?), but looking through iTunes i can see it has nearly 17 hours of music on it.
How can i move this music onto my computer, then delete it from the iPod? I'd like to go through the music and toss what i don't want....
that's all for now, i'll keep experimenting, i know this can't be hard to do (after all, this is an Apple product! they're always user-friendly)
thanks all

go to versiontracker.com and search for 'iPodRip' if your interested...
It took me a while fiddling around with tab complete to find the right dir on the ipod (/Volumes/My\\ iPod/something ) and this isn't recommended for someone new to the CLI.
