Can someone help me. I purchased a CC download. I have never used Itunes before. I was able to load Itunes to my computer and somehow managed to put the cardio coach in my itunes folder. I have a new Ipod I have not used yet. How do I download the cardio coach to the ipod? As you can probably tell, I am not very good with technology!!

You'll probably need to download itunes first.

If you have iTunes and CC unzipped and loaded, plug in your iPod to your computer and it should automatically sync and put the songs on the iPod. Then you can start sweating! FYI - you may need to rename the CC songs to put them in order so it plays in the right order for you. I had to do that.

I have a MacBook Pro with iTUNES and an iPOD so I don't know how it works with a PC but this is how it worked when I downloaded my most recent CC workouts:
1) I place my CC order and I see an instruction to click on the link(s) at the bottom of the page (one-at-a-time for each workout). I click the first one and wait, then the next, and so on.
2) Each of the workouts shows up on my computer's desktop screen as little CC icons. I drag each one, one-at-a-time on top of the iTUNES icon on the strip at the bottom of my screen. If I don't already have the iTUNES screen up it pops up and each one immediately shows up among my list of songs. Now everything is in iTUNES.
3) To get my workouts from iTUNES to my iPOD I plug in my iPOD and the CC workouts (and anything else I've added since I last plugged my iPOD into my computer) automatically downloads to my iPOD (They call it SYNCing). Then I remove the plug from both my iPOD and my computer.
4) I search my iPOD for the workouts and they're all there. Oddly, when I search the only place where all eight of my workouts show up is when I click on MUSIC then ALBUMS. If I click on MUSIC then CARDIO COACH, only 4 of the 8 show up. Whatever. So click on MUSIC then ALBUMS and all your CC workouts should be there.
If you're doing this on a PC it's probably pretty much the same. I'm a techno-moron and had all sorts of trouble the first time I did it but this is how it worked with my most recent order (several days ago). I hope this helps.

thanks again - I finally got it all to work last night and CC #4 is the first thing on My Ipod. Now that I have figured it out (I think) I can't wait to actually add some songs! Next I will try to program my swim "mp3" goggles so I can do some great swimming workouts too--I wonder if CC will work with swimming (since you can't go uphill--but you can increase/decrease intensity)
