If you want to use iPod classic with a Mac and a Windows PC
If you’re using iPod classic with a Mac and you want to use it with a Windows PC, you
must restore the iPod software for use with the PC (see “Updating and Restoring iPod

including all songs.
You cannot switch from using iPod classic with a Mac to using it with a Windows PC
without erasing all data on iPod classic.
