52 Using iPod
Setting the Alarm
You can use iPod as an alarm clock.
To set an alarm:
1 Select Extras > Clock > Alarm Clock.
2 Set Alarm to On.
3 Select a sound.
If you select Beep, the alarm will be audible through the internal speaker. If you select
a playlist, you’ll need to connect iPod to speakers or headphones to hear the alarm.
Importing Addresses, Phone Numbers, Calendar Events,
and To-Do Lists
Your iPod can store contacts, calendar events, and to-do lists, for viewing on the go.
If you are running any version of Mac OS X earlier than 10.4, you use a Mac and iSync to
update your information. Synchronizing information using iSync requires iSync 1.1 or
later, and iCal 1.0.1 or later.
To import all information using a Mac and iSync (using Mac OS X v10.3.9 or earlier):
1 Connect iPod to your computer.
2 Open iSync and choose Devices > Add Device. You only need to do this step the first
time you use iSync with your iPod.
3 Select iPod and click Sync Now.
iSync transfers information from iCal and Mac OS X Address Book to your iPod.
