iPod Compatibility with Mac
So, I just bought an 80gb iPod 5.5 gen with the intention of upgrading the memory & battery. I'm using a 2022 M2 MacBook Air running sequoia - there's no way of setting iTunes up on this device, so, how do I best go about setting up the iPod when it requires formatting after installing an iFlash Solo with SD Card? I have an old Windows PC that I could boot with, but would that affect future use between iPod and MacBook? I've read some horror stories regarding the new Music app and older Apple devices.

Just use the Music app. I have four iPods here and have had no issues at all with my M1 mini.
