Jwin Jxm58 Splash Proof Am/Fm Radio With Alarm Clock

There is another use for your iPod other than just listening to music or watching videos. You can actually set up your iPod to wake yourself up in the morning. Whether you like waking up to that BEEP, BEEP, BEEP sound from your old worn out alarm clock, or the static that come from your clock radio, the iPods alarm clock has them all beat. It will change your morning routine forever.

This should work with any iPod except the iPod Shuffle. The iPod needs to have firmware 2.1 or newer software. If you only have 2.0 or older software, do not worry. Firmware can be downloaded from apple website. A pair of speakers will also be needed.

The alarm clock feature on the iPod can be found with all of its other features, like the calendar and notes under the iPods Extra menu. This is also where you can find the games, too.

To begin setting your alarm, go to iPods main menu and select extra. Then go to clock and choose alarm clock. Once all of these are chosen, set the alarm clock to preferred time you would like to wake up.

The iPod can be set to play a song from your song list when the alarm goes off. Make sure to turn the alarm on. The icon for the alarm looks like a bell. It will come into view on the right side of the screen when the alarm feature is set. You will need to attach a pair of speakers where the headphones are usually plugged into the iPod.

Make sure that you double-check the volume on your iPod. Play a song just to make sure. This way you will be to set the volume on your iPod to make sure it is loud enough to wake you up in the morning. You will also want to make sure the iPods battery has a good charge. If it does not, or the battery goes dead, it will not be able to wake you up the next morning. Just to be on the safe side, you may want to plug into the iPods AC adaptor and not have to worry about the iPod not waking you up in the morning.

It is also a good idea not to only make sure that the time is set correctly on your iPod, but also that the correct date and time are also set. To do this you will need to go to Extras and choose clock. At this point you should be able to check that your date and time are correct. You may want to make sure your computer has the correct date & time too. Every time that you iPod is docked on to your computer, the iPods date and time settings will get synchronized to the computer.

If you would like to wake up with your iPod playing songs from your playlist, you will need to create a playlist for the iPod to play when the alarm goes off. This playlist can hold many songs or as little as one song.

If you need to make up a playlist and you are away from your computer, there is a way that you can make an On the Go playlist. Heres how to do it:

Go to the song you would like to choose using scroll wheel. Press and hold center button until song flashes over and over again. It will now be add to the On the Go Playlist. To add more songs to this playlist just repeat this last step. To view your On the Go playlist go to Music and select playlists and you should be able to see all the songs in this playlist. To remove a song from the playlist repeat this last step by holding down the select button on the song you want to remove until name flashes over and over again.

Now you should be able to rock n roll your way right out of bed in the morning waking up to your favorite music. This should be able to get your day started in the right direction. You will bebop your way into the shower and be skipping all the way to work with all of your favorite songs still in your head.

Let’s face it without an alarm clock most of us would never get up in the morning.

My Dad used to say, “I go to bed at night and say to myself, wake up at six thirty in the morning Harold, I bang my head three times on the pillow and then fall asleep, and in the morning I always wake up on time”.

Well I tried his method and all I got was earache from my boss in the morning for being late for work! I would suspect that you are probably like me and will also need an alarm clock.

That is if you NEED to get up in the morning at all.

So let’s assume you need an alarm clock the first thing to do is to consider what kind you want and what features would be especially useful to you.

If you have a partner you might want to consider an alarm clock with dual alarms. You can actually set separate times to wake up if you have different working schedules. Your settings can include different music selections, tones, and of course times. You can also choose how you want to be woken up.

Some people love music to wake up to, others need a loud ringing noise or they won’t wake up at all. It’s your choice, individualized settings for each of you now that’s unique. So waking up in the morning can become a unique experience.

There are even more options today with something as straight forward as volume. My son could never get up in the morning so what I had to do with him was to put a loud ringing alarm clock on top of a large tin lid several feet away from his bedside so when that annoying ring began in the morning and woke him up he had to get out of bed an cross the room to stop it.

This method had him out of bed and on his way to the shower before he realized it.

So nowadays you can start your ascending volume quietly and then if you don’t wake up and shut it off it just gets louder and louder till you can’t stand it any longer. I could have done with one of those for my son I can tell you.

Other features you might want to consider when buying an alarm clock might be one that includes a radio or perhaps even a CD player. Short or poorly sighted people can even buy an alarm clock that will project the time on the wall in great big letters.

As you give due consideration to all the features you might want keep in mind the alarm clock is probably the first thing you will see everyday of your life for the next few years that you wake up in the morning (apart from the wife).

So make sure that it is fairly good to look at. So if you’ve got time on your hands (and on your mind) then get cracking study the features and go and purchase your alarm clock.
