Hi Sarah,

I've been trying but I don't succeed. Could you be more verbose please?
I opened itunes, but found command i to do nothing. I went through the menus, but command i is get info and it is grayed out. I reread your message and you said that you selected the files before pressing command i. How do I make itunes give me a dialog to select files in the first place? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sarah Alawami" <marri...@gmail.com>

Hi list,

I am trying to find my way around itunes but I can't get done what seems so easy.

Many books over here are being sold right out of the normal book stores. If you buy one, you get a bunch of normal audio CDs. No copy protection. Any one can buy audio books in this form. More and more books are becoming available this way here. On each CD, you have between 10 and 15 audio tracks on each disk. I ripped all of them to mp3 files and then organized all files per book, so that I now have 001.mp3, 002.mp3, 003.mp3 up til, sometimes, 579.mp3. So if a book consists of 10 CD disks with 10 tracks per CD, I then would have 1 renumbered collection consisting of 001.mp3 up till 100.mp3.

What I want, is put this on my iphone, so that I can listen to my book anywhere. To make that happen, I need to import all numbered mp3 files that together make up one book, into itunes. I've been trying this the past few days, but I don't succeed.

I start up itunes, go into the file menu and chose add to library. I then browse to the folder containing the numbered mp3 files I want to add and then V o space on the choose button. Itunes then imports them, but it organizes it according to the mp3 tags, which are either incorrect or missing, as I never cared about them in my windows life. I have everything organized by filename, in a large folder structure.

In short: given a large collection of nicely numbered mp3 files, how do I get them into itunes, and then to my iphone, so that they play in order?

Paul.
