and there will be four or five hundred more The shit comes with no instructions and it is NOT intuitive. for example, when I click the box to manually synch the ipod by selecting only the files from my external harddrive, it starts trying to synch up to the PC drive instead of my external.



The thing is both Satan and God at the same time

ITunes is intuitive.
Some people just insist on being different. Can't plan for them . . . .

SUPRMAN said:

Then please explain how when I select that button that says to upload only selected files that I click that button and it starts trying to sync up to the files on the PC instead of allowing me to click the files I want? I'm not completely retarded and this thing has a mind of its own

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

:cough: :cough: you have to select the files first. Then tell the program to sync.

Have you de-selected every song in iTunes on the PC? Because if you don't want it to sync those files, you have to specifically tell it not to.

Oh - and it won't sync random files. It syncs to files that are in iTunes. Are the files in the external drive part of iTunes?

I thought that face on the cover sounded familiar

OMG & OMG.

I found out the first thing you're talking about because I had to select manually manage music because everytime I hooked the ipod up to another computer it tried grabbing stuff that wasn't mine.

I converted all the files on the external so I think the answer is yes but I am not sure how to verify. I've never used Itunes for anything other than creating a playlist and slipping it on the ipod.

I feel so old

I'd really like to help you but I feel you don't want

You called me stupid!

Whatever

PANDURITO said:

Oh, Hello!

You can't(musn't) have the songs in your computer AND your external

You must have only ONE library

To know which is your library go to Edit>Preferences>Advanced

That should be your external drive in your case














Oh,

If you have songs spread through different folders and drives, you can always consolidate your library
File > Library > Consolidate Library

This will copy all of your music into the iTunes music folder. Make sure it's the folder you want. (see previous post)

If your iPod doesn't recognize your library now, then it's even dumber than you
