3 - go to my computer > then the ipod (will probably be drive E or something) > then the "ipod_control" folder.
4 - inside that folder is a "music" folder, copy that to the computer you want the music on.
5 - open itunes, go to options, and choose the option "let itunes keep my folder organized"
6 - import newly copied music folder to itunes.

That how u do it.

Perfect, THANKS!

For example, I've got songs from the same album showing up in different places.... I was hoping there was some program that would fix all that shit for me so I didn't have to manually do it...

I don't have an iPod, but do have an MP3 player. I use Windows Media Player to sync files, so unsure exactly how itunes works. With WMP, you can simply right click on the song, then select "find album info" and choose the correct album. If that doesn't work or you can't find the album, then you have to manually do it by selecting "advanced tag editor". The tag editor also lets you customize your song info as DLIT did. Again, not sure how itunes works, so this may be useless info. Good luck.

I just cannot figure out how to do it automatically... I don't want to spend the rest of my life organizing this thing... 5500+ songs... fuck that...

Can't say I blame you. I don't have nearly that many songs.

Those skins are decent, but they do need more options. Wish they had the spade one for the RAZR, I'd get that.

That sync up with itunes, or what? Can you transfer music from there to your ipod, or do you transfer them to itunes once they're fixed? 5,500 songs is fuckin WHACK!

I guess I meant you can do it manually.
And all my chit was organized already, I do it as I download.... keeps my computer all neat and organized.

Yeah, in fact, it needs iTunes to be running to even work... All the program does is corrects the song information so iTunes doesn't fuck it up when syncing to your iPod... All you should have to do afterwards is resync and you're golden...

On problem though... Only the first 50 songs are free... Should of read the fine print... Now I need to find a crack for this software...

My MP3 collection is well sorted, but it's by file name, NOT file tag like what iTunes does. The Get Info option only displays the info that's already present and you cannot automatically download shit anyway, unless the original was ripped by iTunes (which it would already have the correct shit in there to begin with). Half of my MP3's are more than 7-8 years old... before iPods even existed.
