I've recently bought the new Nano, now I'm rubbish with stuff like this and I'm way behind with these things, anyway I put some mp3 songs in my library on windows media player, and then 'synchronized' them to my iPod Nano, it says on my media player that the mp3's are on the iPod but when I try and find them on it, it says there's no music files or anything, any ideas peeps? 
 
Thanks

I'm unsure, I know nothing at all about them, I'm good with computers but iPods are new to me.

Yeah i think you HAVE to use itunes, you cant just drag and drop them like you can with other MP3 players. its free but a pain in the arse to use!

yeah you gotta use i-tunes mate   
 
don't worry i just had to set up my dad's i-pod, the new updated i-tunes is much harder to use IMO as you have to press the synce button which automatically updates your ipod but confused me as i didn't know the music was on the pod until i disconnected it. 
 
pain in the arse tbh

Download Anapod   piece of piss to use. 
 
There is also a plugin for Windows Media Player called DopIsp made by a company called MGTEK. 
 
Both Anapod and DopIsp cost money... but they are worth it! (did i say cost money... cough!)

you can also use Media Monkey (free download, google it) , it is pretty good. 
 
I just use iTunes with my Nano and Touch, does the job fine.
