A:

If you'd like to return to the old iTunes format, you can follow these steps:

 

1. Look for the Menu Bar (File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help)

 

2. If you see it, great! Head to step 4.

 

3. Press Ctrl + B on the keyboard

 

4. Go to View > Show Sidebar

 

And voila! You should now be seeing a familiar interface.

 

*****

You can also rename the iPod without a computer.

 

Navigate to Settings > General > About > Name and proceed to change the name directly from the iPod itself.
