Yeah I noticed that also, The ipod isn't showing in the list of devices or should I say primary devices.
I did a search for iPod and found them that way I hope that they aren't doing away with them in favour of the watch, I can't run some of my apps on the watch which is why I need the iPod touch. May be I should buy a couple more. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of David Griffith Sent: Monday, 3 October 2016 7:23 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod? You may be wise. Tthe discussions I have seen is that Apple want to shift people away from using iPod to using an Apple Watch. I have no definite knowledge as to whether this is true but there seems speculation that iPod development has ceased in favour of this longer term switch. I went to the Apple Store in the UK and there is no mention of the iPod apart from its presence in a list of products described as being in the page "footer area". The iPod is certainly not in the headlining products for the Store now so it seems it has at least shifted in priorities for marketing.
