I'm running 9.02 with no problems. I watch a lot of movies/tv shows on itunes plus loads of audiobooks. Isn't the grid thing you're talking about the icons for the various views next to the search box? I think you just click on those to see various views so if you were to "lose" it you just need to click on the next icon to get it back. terry My Foodie Photos http://www.flickr.com/terrypogue "My idea of pure heaven is to spend a day in the kitchen, peeling, chopping, and stirring while the words of a good book fill the air around me."

Will I lose my library again? >> >> I use my iPod for books, so I don't need the Genius feature. I like the grid format I've currently got - will I lose that? I've only got a Nano (which I'm perfectly happy with), so don't need all the aps stuff. >> >> but I do want to download the new Christmas music they're offering, and I can't do that unless I upgrade to 9.02 - but I don't want it badly enough to risk having to rebuild my library again! >> >> -becca >> >> > > _______________________________________________ > iTunes mailing list > iTunes at listserver.themacintoshguy.com > http://listserver.themacintoshguy.com/mailman/listinfo/itunes
