| Selected iPod touch Photos | ||||||
You can sync photos from a pictures folder (Windows & Mac) or iPhoto (Mac). iPods can display images in .jpg, .gif, .png, and .tif formats. To transfer photos, connect iPod to the computer. In iTunes, click the iPod's name under Devices. Click the Photos tab. Check the box next to Sync Photos. Click the Apply button. Each time you connect the iPod to the computer, the photos will be updated.
To access the photos, select Photos from the Home screen. Then choose a subfolder or album to display a thumbnail list. Tap a thumbnail to see a full-screen image. Flick to see go to the next image. Keep in mind that photos don't have to be limited to photographs from cameras. Slides from presentation software like PowerPoint or Keynote can be exported to .JPG format and loaded onto an iPod, just as you would load digital photographs. Learning in Hand's Gallery of Educational Image Sets has various groups of images for use on iPods. Some of them work better on a Click Wheel iPod, but many of them will also work great on an iPod touch.
iPresent It ($18) from ZappTek allows Windows and Macintosh users to convert PowerPoint or PDF presentation into photos to be displayed on an iPod. For lots more information about the Photos function read iLounge's
