Take your most important personal info with you for convenient use on any Mac, and share your iPod's music too!

You've got a Mac and an iPod. Its pretty cool that you can sync your calendars, and export your addresses to your iPod for you to use when you're "on the go"...but what about when you "get there"? You can't use them on another Mac, even though it's "right there" on your iPod!

youPod changes all this. youPod lets you take your real AddressBook and iCalendars with you, as well as your bookmarks for Safari, Firefox or Explorer. You can even take your Keychain, so you don't have to remember all of those passwords and logins. youPod even turns your iPod into an iTunes Music Share when you're away...so you can play and share your music...as well as makes all your music visible to the Finder in a well organized directory structure with the My Music button...

Just use youPod's super-easy interface to pick what you want to take with you...

...and when you get back, just click on that youPod icon to sync any changes you made while away back! youPod is like .mac for your iPod, but so much more!

Its Easy to use when you are away, too!

When you're away, youPod knows and adjusts accordingly. Run youPod from your iPod when you get where you need to go and it adds a handy menu to the menubar without "hacking" the system you're using...

Choose whatever you want...your bookmarks, keychains addresses and calendars are waiting...just like at home. Click again and everything is set back. Its that simple. Nothing is left behind. No rebooting, no admin priviledges, no drivers no logout. It Just Works! Click here to see youPod in action when you're using someone else's Mac or Login.

youPod lets the music play, even when you are away

You carry your music with you; its why we have iPods. Wanna "get your groove on" at another Mac? youPod can help. Click 'My Music' when you're home, and youPod makes a youMusic folder that is visible on your iPod. Your music is organized by Artist and Album.

When you are away, youPod turns your iPod into an iTunes Music Share. You, and everyone else on the network can enjoy the music on your iPod, without altering the playlists on the Mac your iPod is connected to.

youPod does even more...on *all* of your iPods - including iPod shuffle!

One youPod license allows you to use it with any and all iPods you may have. It works with all iPod models.

Need to send your Mac for repair? youPod makes sure your personal info is safely stored.
Backing up your personal data is NOT routinely done or if it is, there's an additional charge. Often, Service Centers run Restore Utitities to set the machine back to the factory default. You may have your apps backed up, but the tedium of re-entering your ISP settings, appointments and other *custom info* is left to you. youPod takes care of safely storing this info with one click. Click SafeKeeping when you're home and your settings are saved to your iPod, in case of emergency.

youPod can also run AppleScripts when insert and/or eject your iPod. If you're like us, when you're ready to go, you grab your iPod and run...right after you close this app, set your iChat to "Away" and lock your screen. you've got stuff you usually do. youPod can help! AppleScripts that automate all sorts of things are available for free all over the Web. Try this feature out, its really helpful!
