No1 son tells me if you are online when you copy a disc to i-tunes it automatically names the album and songs.

So you can get music into Itunes. You don't have a problem importing them in.

Many CDs come with the songs incorrectly labeled (without the 'ID3' tags). You can try the following, but you may have to name them individually.

Highlight the tracks
Click Advanced
select Get CD track Names

I have no energy left on this gadget - I tried the advanced button and got error CDDB Information not available on some of these items - and then zilch !! Can I just ask my main questions again - Why haven't I got the import button and why can't I see the playlists on the ipod ?

Hi

Ok - First the import button, then I'll walk you through the Ipod settings

Where is it you want to see an import button that you're not?
If you put in a CD, the CD should appear in the pane on the left. When you click on the CD, you should be shown the contents of that CD and have ain import button at the bottom-right of Itunes.

Do you not get this?

No - I put a cd in and nothing happens at all - I have to start it by clicking file - import - in the web site it shows an import button at the bottom beside the eject cd button

The CD(s) you are using isn't being recognised by iTunes. Is it a bought CD - not one that's been made with a set of MP3 files on it?

Have you tried shutting down iTunes, putting a CD in the drive and restarting iTunes?

The Import button is only shown when you highlight the CD's title which should bei listed under 'Devices' between Store and Playlists on the left column of iTunes.

Just tried that and the same thing - it is a shop bought CD - I have listed store - devices - playlists - no CD or anything else in between
