yes and yes. i have bought another f.w. cable so that i can charge the iPod when at work with the brick and the original is attached to the dock for synching with my mac and char…

thanks!

Another thing is that the ipod does not get re-synced each time it only gets updated from the itunes machine. So if you have a 40 gig,the first time will take a while to sync but a…

audvidsvs, thanks for the reminder. I know it doesn't have to write the full 40GB each time it syncs, since it does a differential sync. But still, a lossless encoded CD is about 2…

Is there any way to hard wire an iPod in your car so that it will power up and play when you turn the car on? I�m looking at getting an iPod for the car, but cannot see taking it t…

Hai m8's Maybe a strange question but i was wondering how i can get my itunes music records in a MS Access database. I want to make a database of all my music (50GB) but don't wan…

I made a listing of all my songs on my desktop, using the Appleworks ... oops -- it occurs to me I used the spreadsheet program, not the database. Then Oh well -- I was just going…

First: Thnx for all the posts! It doesn't make a difference to export to *.txt, it gave the same results as a *.xml file. Now i gonna try to import the records in excell and repl…
