Nothing? Anyone have pinouts for the dock connector and or a way to build my own remote adaptor. I really want this damn thing to work.

I've never heard of such an adapter, I'm afraid.

I'm pretty sure someone did announce an adapter like the one you describe--a dock adapter which creates a remote connector. I'd say check with all the major accessory manufacturer…

I'm using iTunes.

Before you rip the CD, select the track and choose "Get Info." In the "Options" tab, there are fields to edit the start and stop times for the song. Edit the stop time so that the …

Garageband can also cut out unwanted parts. Just drag the file into the edit window and put the playhead where you want to cut the track. Then select Edit>Split Track at Playh…

SpaceMonkey, I never knew that! That's really good to know! I'm Impressed. UNTeMac's method is the method I've always used. And I like this method.

Thanks for the help. I've been in a lot of classes at work and haven't had a lot of time to catch up on my reading, so sorry I hadn't replied until now.
