Hey.

Thanks for providing the links. I think it's very cool that people put in the time and effort to make these tutorials available. That said, I already know enough about ITunes to know I don't want it on my machine. I already have over 20,000 songs, incidentally, and can easily make any kind of playlist, using real and actual album folders on my hard drive, in a matter of seconds, or the native music library function, if I want, though I hardly even bother with that. Also, I don't buy Apple products, but unless things have changed a lot recently, you can use programmes other than ITunes to communicate with IDevices, though no doubt Apple, in their infinite wisdom, goes out of their way to tell you that you can't, or shouldn't, or that you're missing out on some GREAT AND LIFECHANGING OPPORTUNITY if you do, or something like that..

iTunes is not a pain. I use it dailly. In fact, I am using it right now. Here, this is a link for a 2 part tutorial on iTunes. The second part comes out this month so keep an eye open.

A list of different podcast will appear. Select the december 2010 episode. I believe it is episode 49. Listen to it. You will learn a lot. Don't dispair! Once you learn to use iTunes you will like it. Also, if you plan to use or buy an iPod, iPhone or iPad (or any combination of those devices) you will need iTunes.

Hell....this programme is such a pain; wish I understood why people still bothered.

Sorry for the irrelevant post; must be triggerhappy today.

you are not the only one. But, I suggest you take out any and all non
essential icons. e.g. if you don't use tv shows, take it out. I also
suggest you maintain all itunes media on the itunes folder. Not on your
usual music folder. iTunes needs to check every tag and it slows thing down.
For example, I have all of my music on one folder on my external hardrive,
and I also have there my movies. so it doesn't matter what happens, itunes
only has 1 place to look and download material. other than that I suggest
you double the minimum requirements. for example, if itunes needs 1 GB of
ram to play music, bring it up to 2 or 3. that way itunes will have almost
unlimited ram to do whatever it wants.
