iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
This is not exactly news but it really does need to be told .
My iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page , yes Apple officiallyy sells iPods in India but still iPod software doesn't have india anywhere in it's Date/Time(Timezone) selection page 
heck , my iPod features karachi in the Date/Time settings page but no city from India

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
Strange. Macs have settings for IST, the Indian currency and Indian languages. And yet the iPod doesn't. o.O

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
For what its worth, Jobs doesn't hate India. He loves India, and its history/philosophy. (Didn't he like come to India in his trip days?)

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
Yeah, he did. And I think something happened on that trip that has turned him against India. (I know he had a terrible time here. He and his partner were caught in a hailstorm and almost died in it.)
Seriously, Apple almost ignores the Indian market.

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
If the video iPod has it, I am sure the Nano has it too.

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
Just a bit way of topic and since ipods are discussed i am stuck at one problem.
I somehow have set my ipod to Chinese language. This has left my ipod totally redundant.
Can someone help me with this?

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
Isn't there some option in iTunes to configure your iPod? I'm sorry I've never used an iPod so I have no idea about it.

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
@iMav Thanks for the suggestion. i guess its reseting the ipod which i dont want to do. As i again will have to configure it.Anyways found a word around from the net where the complete scrolling thing was given on how to configure it to back to english language.
Nevertheless thanks for a good Suggestion.
@aryayush .
Thanks ! Yes there is an option to reset the ipod or even update the firmware from the itunes.
Thanks all and have a great day!

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
Well you have Mumbai in the Additional Clocks(i.e in the Extras Section) but you don't have it in the System Date/Time Settings .
i'm talkin bout Date/Time Settings in Settings>>Date & Time>>Set Date & Time

Didn't you read that Jobs doesn't care about India, besides I don't think he is gonna admit that iPod has a flaw.

Re: iPod doesn't have India in it's Date/Time settings page
Menu -> Settings -> Date & Time -> Set Time zones
This is for time zones....nd its quite surprising that none of the Indian cities feature here and even stranger that Karachi is here.
I agree, Apple is sorta showing Anti-India feelings. After all I-Pods in India are the 2nd most expensive in the world; only after Brazil.
YOU can of course still set the correct time and synchronise it with ur PC, but thats not the point.
I do hope an Indian city will feature with the next firmware update.
