Just bought Mrs MDP a new Ipod nano at the weekend. tried to put some tunes on it for her by drag/drop from my PC [ my music- mp'3 ] .......... but they dont appear/play??? .... whats the big issue

I guess the only way is to stop using WM Player and start to migrate to itunes then


Any suggestions

Disagree JayMann - I use itunes and unless it is very different on PC it's very easy to use for someone with half a braincell. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

iTunes is OK... I always used to use Musicmatch, which I felt was easier to use but then they removed iPod support from it for some stupid reason, so I've been using iTunes since. I like that funky new animated "cd rack" graphic from the iPhone when you're scrolling through your music

Have to agree with VA on iTunes. Very easy to use, and very easy to manage the music library. Drag and Drop is useful when you have smaller music libraries, but when you get to a slightly larger collection, Itunes make it much easier to manage. Mine is getting up to 35,000 songs and I haven't found anything better to manage my music. Just a white TDV8 with a few extras

Bit annoying that every iTunes update is 60+MB (for Windows at least), seem to come along every few weeks and doesn't seem to give me any new features relevant to my old-school 3rd Gen iPod

Seems to be getting very bloated and a bit of a resource-hog, which is a shame as it started wonderfully streamlined  Like this site? Buy some RRSPORT goodies to show your support!

Guys it is simple in the end, just buy a nice IPOD accessory, its called an IMAC it comes with Itunes, it updates your ipod on a regular basis, very easy syncs options with your IPOD..It is only in the region of 10 x the price of your ipod nano  Another Pommie Bar Steward down under

Having spent all night getting to grips with the way it operates = RESULT .... once you work out the principals of its operating methods...... easy peasy

mind you .... I was a bit miffed when I had spent hours dragging in album art work to the zillion files brought over from WMP.... then loaded onto the ipod...... only to find no art work...... I know why too......Because, although I had clicked on the 1st track in an album - which opens up the option to drag in artwork - and duly updates the album cover in itunes library - I needed to apply/drag this artwork to each file/song in that particular album = WHAT A DRAG [ excuse the pun ]


Does anyone no an easier/quicker way of applying missing art work that itunes cant provide?
