Extremely helpful!! January 13, 2010

I bought this book for my daughter along with her new IPod Touch. It's easy to look up items; nothing is better than pictures and diagrams, which Brad has provided. It really takes you step by step and has great problems solving techniques. Don't mess around with other books, buy this one! There is so much to the IPod Touch and this book will take you through all the avenues!!

My iPod Touch December 28, 2009

My iPod touch serves as a detailed manual for OS 3.0. This book takes the iPod user through the processes of setting up and using their iPod. In some cases, the book also includes warnings and potential issues that might occur.

Having read My iPhone by the same author, I noticed that much of the same technologies (particularly the touch screen technology, the Internet capability, and downloadable apps) are used for the iPod. Unfortunately, nearly the same problems with additional costs and Internet hassles are also the same as noted in My iPhone.

A very helpful book to accompany my 1st I Touch. Very little if any instructions are provided by APPLE with the I Touch, another marketing blunder on APPLE's part. I recommend this book as a needed guide.

This geek was shut out December 24, 2009

Now, I've had Macs since 1988, and before that I was programming way back when only 1's and 0's would do it. So I should be a certified geek. But this book has consistently left me high and dry. It needed a "Chapter Zero" to tell you how to turn the #$%&* thing on, for starters. This book assumes that you are pretty well into it, or it's going to be Greek. For example, I wanted to check on what version of the software is in my machine, and update it if necessary. On page 392 the book had "instructions" on doing this through iTunes on the computer: 1. Connect your iPod Touch to your computer (I did that). 2. Select your iPod Touch on the Source list (I did that). 3. Click the Summary Tab. Well, I didn't see a Summary Tab. The book has a picture, but I don't see any tab in it. Left high and dry. I went to the Apple site, and they also refer to this Summary Tab, but do not give clues as to where it is. I have spent hours so far looking. Just one example. I'm not dumb but this book does little for me. I bought it on the 100% feedback rating based on two reviews, so I'd better help move the numbers down. My money would have been better spent elsewhere.

I found this book at the local B&N and picked it up for my mother. It is the perfect step-by-step book for beginners. It offers full color photos and descriptions for just about anything you can do with the iPod Touch. It's easy to understand and offers a high quality resource at a great price. In fact, I just bought another one on Amazon for my dad! Recommended for beginners only.
