Ok, so I have my iPod set to sync my address book and photo albums right now. I hate having it sync the entire music library. However, I would like it to sync a few playlists. I…

What are you afraid of? Even if it deletes something, it'll just recopy it to the iPod. It's not going to reset your ipod to the factory default or anything.

You don't need to check the "selected playlists only" box unless you have less space on your iPod than you have music in iTunes. Just let it sync. It'll be OK.

Well I'm afraid it will delete my entire library of music and videos and recopy them because it took forever to load them on in the first place, and I've since deleted all of the i…

Also, I only want it to update my playlists rather than my entire library. I don't like plugging in my iPod and then having it just take control of itself and scanning my entire l…

Yes, syncing playlists is not a bad idea. I do it myself, although that's mostly because I have way too much stuff to fit on an ipod. I'm curious about what you said about it takin…

About 2300 songs taking 10-15 minutes or so to copy. So it doesn't take "forever", but longer than I'd like to wait. I might do it though, I dunno. I just hate to lose the video…

The reason photos take a while is that they have to be converted before transfer. 10-15 minutes probably isn't an unreasonably long time for that number of songs, though. How many…

About 15 gigs of music, took me 10-15 minutes...I didn't keep track though.

Is there anyway I can delete video from my computer, but still be able to sync it to my iPod without leaving the video?

I don't think so. You can't transfer it from your computer to your iPod if it isn't still on your computer. If you have it on your iPod, delete it from your computer then try syn…

Ok I was not sure which section to go for but felt this more of a techniocal problem. My old Fedora Core 5 Machine had a 60gig drive which I am keeping. I want to transfer the da…

Are you setting the Powerbook in target disk mode or are you just connecting these two together with Firewire, thinking they'll show up on the desktop? Shut down the Powerbook. C…

I want the Linux Drive which is in the external encloser to mount. There is no other computer. I have my 60gig that was in a Windows laptop and is now sold in an external encloser.…

Ok I have got the system to see the drive under USB connection. Its a Linux LVM partition but I can not mount it... so I am again stuck. Who can help here?

It won't mount because Mac OS can't understanfd the linux file system. If the drive is formatted with ext2/3 then you can get it to work with this little tool here: http://source…

I honestly am not sure what the hell format it is. I got the swap drive to load but the one thats a linux lvm drive refuses to mount... So I am really confused. I will try what y…

You could also just connect the two machines to your LAN and transfer the files over using rsync/scp or via a Netatalk connection.

The only machines I have are macs right now. My neighbor has an old Duron Windows system, I could try to usse it but I have no clue how to try the network on them. I have a cross…

But the problem is every time I burn the ISO it does not work. I have used Firestarter FX, Toast 6 and Disc Utility and every time it will not read the ISO that it burns. (Yes I am…

Well the other system would bee running a Live CD, which would you recommend I was going to use Uduntu Linux my drive was a Fedora Core 5 distro when it was in use. I will try an…

Yes the drive is out of a compaq presario v2570 laptop that i swapped the drives before I sold it (Thinking, OS X and Linux should have no problem reading the drives.. wrong). So…
