Eleanor if you press f4 you come to settings, and press control and tab until you come to remote access. tab along, you will be asked to enter your email address, then you will be given a choice to check data base.

Paul suggested Itunes, this is an excellent piece of software this is much easier. Brian Hartgen wrote a very easy to read guide in using Itunes.

I am definitely using the software correctly. Now I want to convbert a music CD to MP3 and am looking for suggestions. I tend to put in the Cd and then go to My Computer and from there highlight Music CD and copy the CD to My Documents. Maybe I should not be doing this. Then like I say I cannot convert, indeed I can't even get what I copy to play in WMP or Real Player or even VLC media player, do not know why this is either. Finally once I copy over, the only info I have inside my folder is track 1, track 2 etc. Now I know it is possible somehow or other to get the names of the tracks as I accidentally got them using WMP which was great. I have never done this before but what I want is not only to read the names of each track but to have them written in each file rather than track 1 etc. Any help much appreciated. Eleanor
