I think the problem might be that it sounds like you are trying to put CD Audio on the thumb drive. Squeezebox can't read or play this. The CDs must be 'ripped' to a format that Squeezebox can use. ALAC, MP3, FLAC, or other format. If the iTunes files don't have DRM (protected music), then just drag and drop the MP3 files to the thumb drive. Don't convert them to anything or put them on a CD, just put the MP3 files on the thumb drive. Touch should read these. You will not be 'using' iTunes for any of this, just copying the MP3 files from the Music/iTunes/iTunes Music directory to the thumb drive. -- iPhone *iPhone* Media Room: Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1 Living Room: Duet, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Kitchen: Squeezebox BOOM Bedroom: Second Boom Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Ford Thunderbird: Duet, Mac Mini Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79571 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
