    Hi,

    When i got my iPod 2nd generation i was using a MacBook, now i only have access to a Windows machine. My iPod needs to be charged but iTunes says my iPod has to be formatted to be used with Windows. But i don't have any of my music files on the windows machine so don't want this.
    Has anyone used any of the below utilities that allow you to use Mac formated iPods on Windows? Or can you recommend a good one if you have to do this too?
    XPlay2
    MacDrive 6
    MacOpener with Ephpod

    Thanks,
    J

    I used the trial version of MacDrive 6 I think, and it worked fine. Pulled all my music off the ipod and then reformatted it.
