Do I need to download and install itunes before I can download songs from my own CDs on to my ipod nano (4GB)? I have Windows ME and need at least Windows Vista or XP to download itunes. I at least want to listen to my CD songs through my ipod until I can get a new computer with a newer Windows version.

dear Melony ,Taylor,Marti,Beulah,Eric,Tyler,

to unlock your ipod(s)try these solutions

try going to itunes and reset you Ipod.

Connect your iPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one iPod synced with), and open iTunes. When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked.If you can't unlock iPod using either [the code or connecting it to the computer you use to manage its songs]. . . you can restore your iPod to factory settings using iPod Updater. Please note that this will erase all data on your iPod. Afterwards, you can add your music and data back to your iPod.If you want to change the primary computer that your iPod is associated with, do this:1. Restore your iPod. Warning: The restore process cannot be undone. All of your songs and files will be deleted. Always make a backup of your important data.2. Connect your iPod to the computer that you want to be the primary computer.3. Open iTunes and synchronize.Apple also notes that company "representatives cannot unlock an iPod if you forget your combination. If you can't unlock your iPod and you don't have access to the primary computer, your only option is to restore the iPod, which will erase all music and data." (p.s alway make a backup of your data)

or just sell the old one and buy a new one

maybe just get in import for an ipod connect it to a comuter then unlock it
