What is it with you and things electronic?

First your laptop and now your iPod.

Have you got some strange magnetic qualities, young ferrous Chick?

It's because of my stupid laptop that I lost all my songs on my Itunes.

Anyway I don't think electonric things like me very much, I still haven't figured out how to work the the DAB Radio bit on the DAB radio/CD player I got for a xmas.

On the subject of Ipods, anyone have any idea why the artwork on my Ipod is totally wrong (For example when an Oasis song from Definately Maybe plays the artwork from Idlewild's - The Remote Part shows up etc etc). I have checked Itunes and my artwork is definately correct. It isn't completely wrong and only for what appears about 20% of my albums.

Any ideas?

I may be mistaken, as ipods are cunt and i avoid them, but you can access an ipod as an external drive from within "My Computer", surely the files exist within their pathetic folder construction? - Just copy & paste the fuckers if you can.

You are right with that one....all you need to do is change the settings on your itunes to avoid the computer automatically reverting the ipod back to the blank library on your hard disk and then through My computer locate the 'iPod Control' folder - it contains all the songs, videos artwork etc on the iPod - move it to the desktop and when in iTunes simply import the songs from the folder.

You may find some songs appear as funny letter combinations i.e. instead of track names they may appear as KHJTS, GHYTR etc etc.....but don't worry you can search for song titles once they are in your library and 9 times out of 10 they are found again and bob's your uncle!
