Hi Andy. Are you still having this problem? What's happening is that your Touch is obviously re-synching the whole collection again, minus those tracks you've deleted. If it's still a problem, we'd need to know if you're synching automatically or manually and if you're using a playlist or not. If you synch automatically, changing the manage music manually setting on, applying the setting and then setting it off and applying again would cause a complete re-synch for example. Regards.

I expected just to see the songs I have deleted from the library, get removed from the Touch, but while the synching process is taking place, Itunes says "copying 1 of 1000" where 1 is the particular song being copied, and 1000 is the total to be copied. I can also see the artist name and song title of what is being copied. I'm puzzled because as far as I know, I'm not copying, but deleting, and the artists and songs in focus, are not part of the ones I have chosen to delete, they are in fact ones I'm keeping on the Touch. Anybody help me understand what is going on please - Andy
