    OK - I just got my 30g Ipod yesterday and I spent 3 hours importing music and then deleted the music out of Itunes to save space on my computer. When I started to import more music, low and behold, it erased all my music on my Ipod from last night. If I have a 30g Ipod, will I have to leave 30g of music on my computer slowing it down forever? What do you suggest, I'm clueless. This is ridiculous. I did change the preferences to manually manage music but it said I will have "eject" my Ipod each time I disconnect, what does that mean.

    Help me please, I'm a total newby!

    Thank you

    You should use an alternative to iTunes IMHO.

    Others in this forum reckon the 'manually manage playlists' theory works, but I don't really see how.

    Here is a great alternative I could suggest for you to use. A simple way to transfer music to/from which doesn't lose you all your music :)
