["Merrill Louise" <merrill.louise@xxxxxxxxx>]

Under the edit menu, there is preferences. In preferences there is a
tab for ipod. you can check or uncheck a box that says something like
update automatically. that will keep your ipod from updating when you
don't want it to. now you will have to tell it. there is an option in
the file menu and pressing shift+f10 on the ipod in the source list
will also display an update option. ~Merrill
