To synchronize contacts and calendars with a Mac and iSync (using Mac OS X earlier
than version 10.4):
1 Connect iPod nano to your computer.
2 Open iSync and choose Devices > Add Device. You need to do this step only the first
time you use iSync with your iPod nano.
3 Select iPod nano and click Sync Now. iSync downloads information from iCal and Mac
OS X Address Book to your iPod nano.
The next time you want to synchronize iPod nano, you can simply open iSync and click
Sync Now. You can also choose to have iPod nano synchronize automatically when you
connect it.
Note: iSync downloads information from your computer to iPod nano. You can’t use
iSync to load information from your iPod nano to your computer.
To synchronize contacts or calendars (using Microsoft Outlook for Windows or
Outlook Express for Windows):
1 Connect iPod nano to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPod nano in the Source list and click the Options button.
3 Do one of the following:
 To synchronize contacts, click Contacts, select the “Synchronize contacts from”
checkbox, and select Microsoft Outlook (if available) or Outlook Express from the
pop-up menu. Then choose which contact information you want to transfer.
 To synchronize calendars (if you use Microsoft Outlook), click Calendars and select
the “Synchronize calendars from Microsoft Outlook” checkbox.
You can also download contact and calendar information to iPod nano manually. iPod
nano must be enabled as an external disk (see “Using iPod nano as an External Disk” on
page 36).
To download contact information manually:
1 Connect iPod nano and open your favorite email or contacts application. Downloading
contacts works with Palm Desktop, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Entourage, and
Eudora, among others.
2 Drag contacts from the application’s address book to the iPod Contacts folder.
