WD ELEMENTS PLAY MULTIMEDIA DRIVE
USER MANUAL
PLAYING MUSIC – 34
Playing Music From Your iPod ®
Apple ® uses a proprietary naming scheme and because of this the multimedia drive
is unable to display the original names for the folders and files as they are in your
iPod. The multimedia drive instead reassigns new names for the folders and files, but
only while in use with the multimedia drive. The original file information is preserved in
your iPod. You can view the original file information when you play a file where the
screen displays the metadata.
Note: The multimedia drive does not support playback of protected premium content such as movies
or music from the iTunes
® Store, Cinema Now, Movielink ® , Amazon Unbox™, and Vongo ® .
To use your iPod with the multimedia drive, simply plug your iPod in to the USB port
and navigate through the interface menu.
Note: The multimedia drive only supports USB mass storage mode. iPod Touch is not a USB mass
storage device and is therefore not supported.
