Hi Again Sarah, I found that folder of course, so now, if I copy some songs directly into it, are they added to iTunes the next time I open it? Thanks for your patience here! I'm still pretty new at all this, and sometimes still find it pretty overwhelming! I've made great progress over the months, just still have so very far to go! LOL!
