IPod shuffle won't play the files.

I'm clueless to this stuff. My daughter loaded all her music but it won't play nothing. Do they have to be Itunes? I knew she should have just a regular MP3 player. Those worked fine.
Now she has this Ipod and it don'w work worth a crap.

They are MP3 files. WTF is wrong?

Download iTunes.

http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

do you have to pay fom itunes? I'm cheap

Or is to help convert files?

iTunes is free.

It's just not a good idea to try to use an ipod without itunes. It's really messy.

You use Itunes to put the MP3 files onto the IPOD. Itunes is free. I don't know of another way to put songs into an ipod.

u can use real player....to put mp3 files in....

Also, you have 90 days of free phone help. Take advantage of it.

Funny how that works. :domokun

Nah, seriously....the hard part with iPods is just figuring out that you need to put everything in iTunes. It tries to make it pretty user-friendly after that.
