Just dropping the songs on the iPod icon will store them as files, as if it were just a flash drive, not within the iPod playback structure. You need to find some way of updating your iTunes. iTunes is large, 45-50 mb, but set it to download when you go to bed and it should be there by the time you wake up. I've even downloaded big combo OS updates that way when I had a dial-up connection. Alternatively find a friend or library with internet access and download it to a flash drive. If you donwload iTunes on a windows machine, the default download is the windows version, be sure you specify the Mac version. You CAN use the iPod itself to bootstrap this. Take it to your friend/ library, along with the dock, and save the downloaded iTunes installer onto the iPod,bring it home, move the installer to your hard drive and you're good to go. Update iTunes, synch your iPod and voila': music. -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
