How to Configure the Time on an iPod?


Before you use the iPod as a clock, you need to configure its time and date. Use the following steps to do this:
  1. Choose Main menu, Extras, Clock, Date & Time. You’ll see the Date & Time menu.
  2. Choose Set Time Zone. You’ll see the Time Zone menu.
  3. Scroll on the list of time zones until you see the time zone you are in.
  4. Highlight your time zone and press the Select button. The iPod’s time zone will be set to the one you selected, and you will return to the Date & Time menu.
  5. Choose Set Date & Time. You’ll see the Date & Time menu again, except that this time it will be in the set date and time mode. The hour will be highlighted.
  6. Use the Scroll pad or Click Wheel to increase or decrease the hour until the correct hour is displayed.
  7. Press the Fast-forward button so that the minute display is highlighted.
  8. Use the Scroll pad or Click Wheel to increase or decrease the hour until the correct minute is displayed.
  9. Press the Fast-forward button so that the AM/PM indicator display is highlighted.
  10. Use the Scroll pad or Click Wheel to change the AM/PM to the correct value.
  11. Continue using the Fast-forward button and Scroll pad or Click Wheel to set the correct date, month, and year.
  12. Press the Select button. The date and time you selected will be set, and you will return to the Date & Time menu.
  13. Highlight the Time setting. The default value is to use a 12-hour clock.
  14. To use a 24-hour clock, press the Select button. The Time setting will become 24-hour, and a 24-hour clock will be used.
  15. To display the time in the menu title area, highlight Time in Title and press the Select button. The Time in Title setting will become On, and the time will be displayed in the title bar—instead of the menu title
