Hopefully later this morning. A few questions for you to answer please: What OS X is the new iMac running OS X 10.? 10.6.8 What version of iTunes 10.?, 9.? 10.6.1 (7) Is the NEW iTunes Library Empty? NO If not what does it have in it? Just music or Books etc & iTunes Store purchases? Music, 1 movie - incs iTunes Store purchases, some music purchased from JB etc Does the iPod only have Music on it? YES + 1 (?) video (video not important) Or does it have photos as well? NO Is there any iTunes Purchased music (Apple's DRM) songs which need to be authorised for every Mac they're played on? Prob only this Mac. Not sure what "Apple's DRM" means?
