Hi Jonathan. We both have the same phone. I have defined a Key to bring up the music menu. When you put music or podcasts on the phone you can also just Take the memmorycard out of the phone and insert it in to your card adaptor and then pop it in to your laptop. I prefer this method of putting music on to a phone. The thing with Apple you have to go to the trouble of converting music in to the player's code and then if the player is accessible you can select and play music of your choice. Did you enjoy your trip to Sight Village in July? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonathan Mosen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'PC Audio Discussion List'" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Wednesday, September 10, 2008 10:56 PM Subject: RE: Itunes 8 now accessible
