yes you can load your MP3's in HD mode, but the software on the iPod cannot see those files to play them. You have to load them through iTunes (or MusicMatch) for the iPod to play them. Of course there may be 3rd party apps that will work, but the only ones I can think of are for getting songs off of the iPod onto a 2nd Mac.
Is why many of you are getting your panties in a bunch over something that, in the end, is very insignificant. I'm am a Apple user, and generally enjoy using their products very much, but they sometimes do things that make me cringe, such as pursue developers legally for fairly frivolous reasons.
But this is a case of a patent that hurts no one, and simply protects Apple from being out and out copied by the likes of M$. And it looks as though these patents would do little to do that.
So why the F are people getting all pissy with Apple? Guess I am missing it, or prefer to not get angry at every little thing that isn't freely given to me.
But I have a G4/400 tower w/ 256 MB of RAM and I use a lot of different programs and I only have swapfile0, and swapfile1
Not sure what that means, but I have to believe that there is something else going wrong in your system.
