Adding full-resolution image files to iPod nano

When you add photos to iPod nano, iTunes optimizes the photos for viewing. Full-resolution
image files aren’t transferred by default. Adding full-resolution image files is useful if you want
to move them from one computer to another, but it isn’t necessary for viewing the images on
iPod nano.

Add full-resolution image files to iPod nano:

1

In iTunes, select iPod nano in the device list and click the Photos tab.

2

Select “Include full-resolution photos.”

3

Click Apply.

iTunes copies the full-resolution versions of the photos to the Photos folder on iPod nano.
To retrieve them, see the following section, “Adding photos from iPod nano to a computer.”

Adding photos from iPod nano to a computer

If you add full-resolution photos from your computer to iPod nano, they’re stored in a
Photos folder on iPod nano. You can connect iPod nano to a computer and add these photos
to the computer.

Add photos from iPod nano to a computer:

1

Connect iPod nano to the computer.

2

In iTunes, select iPod nano in the device list and click the Summary tab.

3

In the Options section, select “Enable disk use.”

4

Click Apply.

When you use iPod nano as an external disk, the iPod nano disk icon appears on the desktop (Mac),
or as the next available drive letter in Windows Explorer (Windows PC).

5

Drag image files from the Photos folder on iPod nano to the desktop or to a photo editing

application on the computer.
You can also use a photo editing application, such as iPhoto, to add photos stored in the Photos
folder on iPod nano. See the documentation that came with the application for more information.
