thanks for the reply Silver...for some reason I can't get the songs saved while in Limewire to transfer to iTunes.
I click on the shared file...then save as ...name the file...click OK..but I can't find the file when I repoen My Music for example.
I would appreciate the steps to get the file saved then transfered

MUCH appreciated
Paul

Default Transfering music to an iPod.

thanks for the reply Harty...not sure I understood your answer though...I have the songs in a Limewire Library...my problem is getting them saved in some file...then getting them transfered to my iPod library.
I go to shared files...then click "open as" ...name the file with in MY Music directory ...limewirw1 for example...click OK...when I try to reopen the directory there is no limewire file.
Got any thoughts
thanks again
Paul

There's a no. of ways you can get the songs into iTunes library.
* A 1st iTunes File>Add to Library... & select the songs to add. Hold SHIFT key for selecting multiple songs.
* B Drag & drop the songs onto iTunes. This can be via your Saved Files or Shared folders or directly via LW's Library window.
* C Create a Playlist within LW. Save it with a unique name & as an m3u file. Then import that playlist into iTunes. Then go to iTunes menu >Advanced>Consolidate Library. This will copy the actual files to iTunes own library folders.

* A The most obvious way to add files to your iTunes Music Folder directly is via using the Control & O keys. Hold down the SHIFT key to select more than one file at once; the example shows how to add via the Add control & select multiple files at one time.

* B 1. You can select Saved Files folder in LW & press Expore button & the folder will open up for you. Then you can drag & drop songs from there to iTunes. Select multiple files at once by holding down the SHIFT key as you select them.

* B 2. Whilst you can drag & drop songs from the desktop to iTunes, you can also drag & drop them directly from LW's Library window.

Unless somebody wishes to correct me, Adding a folder to iTunes also requires consolidation.
