Sieghard, it worked like a charm. Thanks so much. You are a life saver. Now, if you don't mind, I have one more question. If I had a contact, or an e-mail address or something like that through my computer instead of on my phone, can I immediately sync it to the phone, or do I have to wait until i cloud backs it up. My reason for asking is this. Yesterday I added a home telephone number to one of my contacts. It took all day before it got into my phone. Another thing is I find it difficult to add a home telephone number on the iPhone itself. It automatically puts the number as the cell number, and I have a hard time adding additional numbers. I'm sure it is something that I am doing wrong. Thanks so much. The songs are safely in my phone for Saturday.
