Is it possible to trick iTunes treating an external HD as an iPod?
- by Boris Pavlovic
I keep my music collection on my iPod, but since I got my first iPhone two and a half years ago I have quit using the iPod as a portable music device. It's just an external HD. Benefit of having it as an external HD is that when it's connected to some other computer iTunes can play its music and update iTunes database.
It would be nice if I could copy data from the iPod to an external USB HD and give away the iPod to somebody who doesn't have one.
