Did you do the consoladation step. I missed that the first time, after that it has been working fine.

I don't know how it works on a MAC, as I've never had one.

But from what I read in the tutorial, which is from the itunes website and not here, and using LotR's references, it appears to be working the way it is explained.

what am i supposed to consolidate? i cant make a playlist in LW either unless I enable the LW player. i chose not to. and why would i make a playlist and import it instead of just launghing the song when the download is complete. that imports it into itunes itself. I JUST REALLY ONLY CARE ABOUT iTunes recognizing my completed downloads and importing it by itself. you should check out a mac version... it works a LOT different than what you are doing.

Um I am a mac user lol (& have been for 12 years)! Which is why I said in my post "The relationship b/w LW & iTunes on a mac compared to windows is different." Being a mac user I thought the word Add would be straight forward. Add to Library ... whatother command does iTunes have that refers to Add under the menu items. lol

So long as you're happy with the way it works then there's nothing more for me to add here.

By the way, using the LW playlist to add songs to iTunes music library was something I discovered despite not being a windows user per se. lol Why the heck other windows users couldn't have discovered it I don't know. But I found it thru experimentation on a win 2k system.

Oh & I think you'll find that your new downlds will go to the LW list within iTunes. I had the same issue when I very 1st enabled it ... songs I had in the Saved Files folder were not initially listed. But it has been fine ever since.

There is nothing at the LW website that says songs are automatically imported into iTunes in Windows. It says they have improved integration which refers to the LW song list that shows up in the iTunes.

Remember this forum is not a part of LW. It is simply run by volunteers & is independent of the LW website. Question asked & answered & more than sufficient references to tutorials for using iTunes at the apple site & importing from LW via this forum. Thread closed.
