Default Explain to me like I am a two year old - getting music to my iPod?

Hi, like the title says, explain to me like I am a two year old, because I just can't figure it out. How do I get my music from Limewire to my iPod, I have it shared "my name" LImewire, but I just cannot download it.

And yes, help badly needed.

The shared 'LimeWire Tunes' thing in iTunes is just a playlist...doesn't contain music files. You'll need to find your saved folder (where your LW downloads are saved) & then add to your iTunes library from that saved folder

In LW's library, highlight a file & then click Explore...your saved folder will open. Add to iTunes library from here. Once those files are in your iTunes library, you'll be able to add them to your iPod.

There are a few ways you can add to your iTunes library, dragging from the saved folder into iTunes works for most people but some people find that doesn't work. If you use iTunes to play a song in your saved folder, that song will be added to the iTunes library. In iTunes, if you click file > add file to library > browse for your saved folder, you can add that way. Or file > add folder to library will let you add the whole folder at once.

Go to LW's library. Highlight one of the files you want to move, then click Explore (bottom of the library page)...does your saved folder open? It should

Once your saved folder's open, you can minimise LW to get that off the screen! If your saved folder's taking up the full screen, click on the icon next to the close icon. Now the page should be smaller.

Open iTunes, if it's taking up the full screen then click on the icon next to the close icon. Now that page should be smaller as well & you should have 2 pages on your screen...saved folder & iTunes. Whichever page you click on will show as being on top. You can move either page arouund, just by clicking on the page & dragging.
