The following steps will show you how to use your iPod as a
storage drive:
Connect your iPod to the computer. If iTunes doesn’t
open automatically, open it manually by clicking on it.
Set your iTunes preferences. Find the edit menu on
the Windows toolbar. Choose
preferences. If you are
using a Mac you can go directly to the iTunes menu to
choose
preferences. For both a PC and Mac, click on
the iPod button.
Choose the enable disk use or manually manage songs
and playlists
option (do this for every iPod model
except the iPod shuffle). Both of these options will let
you use your iPod as a drive. If you choose
manually
manage songs and playlists
you won’t automatically
update your iPod with the songs that you have in your
iTunes library. If you are going to be automatically
updating your iPod with new songs, you will want to
use the
enable disk use option instead.
For the iPod Shuffle. Click on enable disk use. Adjust
the
storage allocation slider to the exact amount that
you want to be used by your audio files and the
amount that you want to be used by your data files.
