How to play music from i-Pod to 360?

Poliwag92 · 12/28/2006, 08:53 AM

Well I plugged it in and all my songs have a circle with a cross through it and I can't play them.

did you buy the songs from I-tunes? If so then you cant play them cuz Apple is retarted and protects all their music from being played on somthing not apple certified. Your lucky your 360 reads yours, mine cant cuz of stoopid itunes 7.02

Well, they are if you consider protecting from unauthorized copying (aka illegal activity) retarded...

Long story short, the only reason the music may not play is because the song is of a type of music file that the Xbox 360 can't read.

what can it read then? I have a whole homeade cD it cant read

If it can't read CDs...um... wow, that ain't right...

If I recall correctly, one of the audio file types it should be able to play is WMA

again its the songs that are purchased from iTunes. And this is not to protect it from illegal dl (u cant burn cds on the 360) its just a dumb for apple to make money cuz u have to buy their products

I'm not sure about home-made CDs, but a friend of mine was able to upload a burned copy of Straight Outta Lynwood to his 360 with no problems at all.

It was a HP cd, if that helps.

You may need to downloard the AAC codec which requires a Silver Xbox Live account (Which are free) to get online. I don't know if that will solve your problem, but it's my best bet.

Well, if this helps....

Since I know that you can upload music from a burned CD to a 360, you could burn whatever iTunes music you want onto a CD, then take that CD to the 360 and upload the songs.
