hi Severin I think sometimes this goes for lots of information on the web. It's much easier to complain and say it's all not working, whereas not many people will actually post to say,...hey yes it works. If it works, we don't tend to go searching for problems. Only when we have a query or

Hi Warwick, I suggest you do a sync, backup then restore. It'll take a bit of time but worth it. As it is a new unit, did you do the set up process in configuring with the Mac? I suppose in my first paragraph that it is all set up on the Mac as a recognised iPod. In the process of restoring,

Hi Darrel, I assume you have already used the tools already built into iTunes: file/display duplicates and advanced/get track names and while you are at it, advanced/get album artwork These all do what you asked fairly well. Regards, Eugene
