Ok laugh at me. I always had my ex upload music onto my IPOD. Now i'm trying to figure it out myself. Can you directly upload music from Limewire to your IPOD?

If yes, then how..
If no I got to download I-TUNES,and try to figure it out from there?

No you cannot download directly from LW to iPod.

There are alternatives to iTunes. Some audio programs have special plug-ins that allow you to upload to your iPod.

For iTunes, see How to transfer music to my iPod (& iTunes) {click on link}. I highly recommend using Manual Update so you can choose which songs to add or remove. Using playlists can be a little tricky.

After i get a song i will open it in another player,windows, realplayer etc that is set not to save it on playing. Once i'm happy thats its what i want i will play it on itunes, and that i have set to save songs that it plays. You will need itunes for your ipod, but its a nice setup and ive come to use that player more.
