    Installing I-tunes

    Need some help installing i-tunes.
    Is it even possible?

    no, not natively.
    I use VirtualBox for many things and installed iTunes into a win7 enterprise VM. Works fine for me that way. And if you create a USB filter in that VM for the iPod, it will even do updates to the iPod correctly.

    I have also heard that older versions of iTunes will run in wine, but I haven't bothered with that.

      If you install PlayOnLinux (a fancy front-end for Wine) you can install iTunes7 or iTunes10 through that.

        Thanks ! arochester and yardbird.
        I will give it a try, although it might be just as easy to reboot Win 7 and sync my podcasts.
        Luckily that only happens once a week.
        My music now resides in the Amazon Cloud, which BTW, I can access with no problem from within Kubuntu and from my phone.

          iirc there is some software that will do that for you , i think you can even use amarok to get the podcasts and put them on your Idevice. or GTKpod
