Four Steps to Playing Music on iPod mini
To set up iPod mini, you install software from the iPod CD, and import songs from your
music CD collection or purchase songs from the iTunes Music Store (available in some
countries only). Then you transfer the songs to iPod mini as the battery charges, then
start listening to music.
Step 1: Install the Software
Insert the iPod CD into your computer and install iTunes and the iPod mini software.
Step 2: Import Music to Your Computer
Complete this step if you haven’t already transferred music to your computer. You can
import music from your audio CDs, or if you have an Internet connection, you can buy
music online and download it to your computer using the iTunes Music Store. You can
browse over a million songs and listen to a 30-second preview of any song. The iTunes
Music Store is available in some countries only.
To import music to your computer from an audio CD:
1
Insert a CD into your computer. iTunes opens automatically and the CD is selected in
the iTunes Source list.
2
Uncheck songs you don’t want to transfer, then click Import.
3
Repeat for any other CDs with songs you’d like to import.
To buy music online:
1
Open iTunes and click Music Store in the Source list.
2
Click the Account button and follow the onscreen instructions to set up an account or
enter your existing Apple Account or America Online (AOL) account information (this
option is available in some countries only).
Quick Start

Step 3: Connect iPod mini to Charge the Battery and Transfer Music
Connect iPod mini to a high-power USB 2.0 port on your computer using the included
iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable.
When you connect iPod mini to your computer, iTunes opens. Follow the simple
onscreen instructions to transfer songs and playlists to iPod mini.
To charge the battery:
When iPod mini is connected to your computer, the battery charges. Before
disconnecting iPod mini the first time, let the battery charge for at least an hour.
If you are connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port,
use the iPod Dock Connector to USB 2.0 Cable. If you
are connecting to a FireWire 400 port, use an iPod Dock
Connector to FireWire Cable (available separately).
10
Quick Start
Important:
Be sure to connect iPod mini to a high-power USB 2.0 port directly on your
computer, or to a powered USB 2.0 hub that’s connected to your computer. iPod mini
won’t work if it’s connected to a low-power USB 2.0 port, such as those sometimes
found on keyboards or other peripherals.
If the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the iPod mini screen shows a lightning
bolt, iPod mini is connected to a high-power USB 2.0 port and the battery is charging
(see page 42 for more information).
If you’re using a portable or laptop computer with a high-power USB 2.0 port,
connect the
computer to a power outlet before connecting iPod mini for best results.
If your computer doesn’t have a high-power USB 2.0 port, but has a 6-pin FireWire 400 (IEEE
1394) port,
you can connect iPod mini using the optional iPod Dock Connector to
FireWire Cable, available at www.ipod.com/store.
If your Windows PC doesn’t have a high-power USB 2.0 port or a 6-pin FireWire 400 (IEEE
1394) port,
you can purchase and install a USB 2.0 card or a FireWire card.
For more information on cables and compatible USB and FireWire cards, go to
www.apple.com/ipod.

About iTunes
iTunes is the software application you use to manage the music on your computer and
transfer music to iPod mini. When you connect iPod mini to your computer, iTunes
opens automatically.
Here are some of the things you can do with iTunes:
Purchase and download songs and audiobooks from the iTunes Music Store
Listen to CDs and digital music
Add music from CDs to your music library, so you don’t need to have the CD
in the drive to play music
Make your own CDs (if your computer has a CD burner)
Publish your playlists to the iTunes Music Store
Listen to podcasts, downloadable radio-style shows delivered over the Internet
Create dynamic “Party Shuffle” playlists
Listen to Internet radio stations
This guide explains how to transfer songs to iPod mini using iTunes and manage songs
on iPod mini. For information about using the other features of iTunes, open iTunes
and choose Help > iTunes and Music Store Help.
24 Using iPod mini
About the iTunes Music Store
Using iTunes, you can preview, purchase, and download your favorite songs from the
iTunes Music Store (available in some countries only). There are over a million available
for purchase. You can use an Apple Account to purchase songs from the music store, or
if you have an America Online (AOL) account, you can use that (this option is available
in some countries only).
To browse for and purchase music:
1 Open iTunes and click Music Store in the Source list.
2 Click the Account button and follow the onscreen instructions to set up an account or
enter your existing Apple Account or AOL account information.

Audio File Formats Supported by iPod mini
AAC (M4A, M4B, M4P) (up to 320 Kbps)
Apple Lossless (a high-quality compressed format, available using iTunes 4.5 or later)
MP3 (up to 320 Kbps)
MP3 Variable Bit Rate (VBR)
WAV
AA (audible.com spoken word, formats 2, 3, and 4)
AIFF
Using iPod mini 25
A song encoded using Apple Lossless format has full CD-quality sound, but takes up
only about half the amount of space as a song encoded using AIFF or WAV format. The
same song encoded in AAC or MP3 format takes up even less space. When you import
music from a CD using iTunes, it is converted to AAC format by default.
If you are using a Windows PC, you can convert nonprotected WMA files to AAC or MP3
format. This can be useful if you have a library of music encoded in WMA format. For
more information, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes and Music Store Help.
iPod mini does not support WMA, MPEG Layer 1, MPEG Layer 2 audio files, or
audible.com format 1.
About Playlists
Using iTunes, you can organize songs into playlists. For example, you can create a
playlist with songs to listen to while exercising or with songs for a particular mood.
You can create as many playlists as you like using any of the songs in your computer’s
music library. Putting a song in a playlist doesn’t remove it from the library.
When you connect and update iPod mini, the playlists are transferred to iPod mini. To
browse through playlists, select Music > Playlists on iPod mini.
26 Using iPod mini
About Smart Playlists
Using iTunes, you can automatically create customized Smart Playlists from the songs

could create a playlist that’s no more than 3 gigabytes (GB) in size and includes only
songs you have rated 3 stars or higher (see “Rating Songs” on page 18).
After you create a Smart Playlist, any songs on iPod mini that meet the Smart Playlist’s
criteria are automatically added to the Smart Playlist.
