Importing Music into Your iTunes Library

To listen to music on iPod nano, you first need to get that music into iTunes on your
computer.

There are three ways of getting music and other audio into iTunes:
 Purchase music, audiobooks, and videos, or download podcasts online from the

iTunes Store.

 Import music and other audio from audio CDs.
 Add music and other audio that’s already on your computer to your iTunes library.

Purchasing Songs and Downloading Podcasts Using the iTunes Store

If you have an Internet connection, you can easily purchase and download songs,
albums, audiobooks, and videos online using the iTunes Store. You can also subscribe
to and download podcasts.

To purchase music online using the iTunes Store, you set up an Apple account in
iTunes, find the songs you want, and then buy them. If you already have an Apple
account, or if you have an America Online (AOL) account (available in some countries
only), you can use that account to sign in to the iTunes Store and buy songs.

You don’t need an iTunes Store account to download or subscribe to podcasts.

To sign in to the iTunes Store:

m

Open iTunes and then:

 If you already have an iTunes account, choose Store > Sign In.
 If you don’t already have an iTunes account, choose Store > Create Account and follow

the onscreen instructions to set up an Apple account or enter your existing Apple
account or AOL account information.

You can browse or search the iTunes Store to find the album, song, or artist you’re
looking for. Open iTunes and select iTunes Store in the source list.

 To browse the iTunes Store, choose a category (for example, Music) on the left side of

the main page in the iTunes Store. You can choose a genre, look at new releases, click
one of the featured songs, look at Top Songs and more, or click Browse under Quick
Links in the main iTunes Store window.
