limewire MP3 to iPod

[redsugar]

erm, hello all,

Does anyone know if it is possible [& how] to get MP3 tunes in Limewire to iPod? the iPod is pc version. Window XP...not sure what else you would need to know

this question may have been asked before but have not found a thread.

All you have to do is click explore in the limewire library. Then when it shows the file, right click it, and open it in itunes. The song is added to you library. Then you can send it to your ipod.

From Apple: After installing iTunes 4.6 for Windows, you'll only be able to transfer music to your iPod using iTunes. To transfer music from MusicMatch Jukebox or Audible Manager to your iPod, you'll need to first import the music into iTunes. (On the mac, as soon as you connect the iPod, iTunes will update it.)

no problem, I had that problem at the beginning. And the bunny thing?

Just an expression, certainly no bunny.

actually, have another question you may be able to help with...seems like some of the older music i have in iTunes has the problem of not being able to find the music even tho it is still on my pc, has an '!' exclamation mark next to it.

That means (!) it is still on your iT library list but no longer situated where iTunes can find it. It often happens when you add songs from a cd & convert them to mp3. You're left with the original listing. Do a search for these mp3's to make sure you haven't unwittingly moved them. Alternatively you can Consolidate the Library (under Advanced on menu bar.) This should move all copies of songs to designated location (default iT library location on your hdd.) This might not necessarily work.

You must have deleted the files from your computer. That's the only reason I can think of.

That's the 1st thought, although I forgot to stress that in my post. However the same will also occur if the files have been moved from their library b/c iT can't find them. It is 'so' easy to add full audio files to iTunes, convert them & then forget to delete the original listing.
