When I download tunes , either from my own CDs or from online, I take them to my laptop. Everything works fine! I then download them (or a selection, at least) to my 60G photo ipod. Again, everything runs smoothly. The last time I updated my ipod was about six months ago. Since then I haven't accessed itunes on my laptop.…until now. This is where I find that EVERYTHING in itunes has disappeared! Can anyone tell me what's happened? Do the downloads only have a limited time before they are deleted or what? Please help!!! I still have the (almost) complete collection on my ipod. Is there a way I can upload the stuff from my ipod onto the laptop again - reverse the process, as it were, and store it in a safer, more permanent state? I'd really appreciate some advice on this. Many thanks in anticipation Regards David Nolan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
