If an iPod is formatted in HFS (a Mac only format) TuneRanger will not be able to get to the files and move them to your PC from a Windows machine by itself. There are several companies that make software which enable Windows PCs to mount HFS drives. One that we’ve used in the past has a 5 day trial-version at: http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive/freetrial/ Don’t forget to put your iPods in manual mode and to Enable Disk Use when using TuneRanger.
