  • Tips on Preserving Your Portable's Battery Life.
Save Money on iTunes by Copying CDs to Your iPhone
The iTunes Store has millions of songs that can easily be purchased via your iPhone. However, why pay twice for the same songs and albums when you already have them on CD? If you're new to the iPhone then you may be unaware that music on physical CDs can be transferred to your new Apple device. To find out more, read this guide which shows you how to get all your favorite CD music onto your new iPhone without having to pay for it again. Read more

MP3 Player Safety Tips
The MP3 player makes it possible to listen to music practically anywhere, but there are times when you should think about how you listen to music to stay safe. Listening while you cross a busy street for instance is an obvious danger, but there are other situations that you might not be aware of. Read more

How to Switch to a Different Audio Format in iTunes
The AAC format is used by default in iTunes when ripping music CDs, creating copies of songs, or even importing WMA audio files (Windows version). However, sometimes you'll want to change this default encoder to something else. You may for example have devices that can't play AAC files so an alternative will have to be used like MP3. You might also want to build up a lossless music library and therefore require an encoder like ALAC that can create bit-perfect files. If you need to change encoder settings, then follow the steps in this guide to see how it's done. Read more

Tips on Preserving Your Portable's Battery Life
Are you looking for ways to maximize your portable's battery life? Whether you've got an iPod, iPad, iPhone, or some other type of battery-powered portable, you'll want it to last as long as possible between charges. As well as following general advice on how to look after a rechargeable battery, there are a lot of other tweaks you can make. Find out more by reading this guide. Read more
