  1. ok fellas...
    so finally I got my Ipod!!
    got a 120 GB classic, brand new....

    here's the questions I have so far:
    1) any thoughts on how would be the best way to get my bootlegs organized?? (should I add album, concert, etc... on the name??) how do you organize your boots??
    2) I have to start my bootleg collection all over (my current collection is in another pc) now that I'm going to use the office's laptop as a base... should I just copy all my mp3 files or should I start downloading .flac archives???
    3) any suggestions on how to add the album cover to my existing cd's?? itunes is asking me to purchase the album cover, or something like that... I think it's not fair....

    Well I'm open to suggestions...
    thanks for all the help mates!!!

    1. Organize them by date, venue, etc.... exactly as it appears at the top of the bootleg page. That's how I do it I like it because it organizes them in chronological order (ex. "2006-12-09 - Honolulu, Hawaii - Aloha Stadium")

    3. Make sure that the album is spelled exactly as it appears in the iTunes store. Then, right click the item, and click "Get Album Artwork"

    thanks Nick!!
    is it ok for they to charge me for the album cover???
    thanks!!!


  4. They should never charge for a cover
    Have fun with your ipod-I have the same model


  5. Charge you? Hell no. I'm not charged when I do it Just find a relatively large picture of the album cover online, copy it, then paste it in the "Artwork" section of the "Get Info" (it should be the last one on the right)

    You're welcome Johnny, I hope that I can be of some help!

    Bootleg organization:


    Edit item info:


    (You probably don't need this one.. but whatever) Add album artwork:


    You probably don't need these pics to help you, but too much help I guess can't be a bad thing.


  6. hehe!!
    I will I will....

  10. Hey guys! I'm not sure if this problem is fixable, but I figured that I would give it a shot on here. Ever since I updated iTunes to version 8.1.1, I have been receiving these messages before iTunes opens:





    It's a pain because it takes it a couple of minutes to open (obviously). It isn't the entire installation, it's just those messages. Is there a way to get rid of the problem? Thanks for any help from anyone in advance!
  11. Maybe try removing iTunes completely and reinstalling it?

    The only time I've ever seen that message after installing iTunes is when I delete the desktop shortcut.







    To completely remove iTunes / iPod from Windows


    1. Create a System Restore Point (Computer >Right-Click Properties > System Protection > Create).


    2. Backup your iTunes folder in your My Music (Windows 2000 - XP) or Music (Vista).


    3. Start > Control Panel > Add Remove Programs (Windows 2000 - XP) or Programs and Features (Vista).


    4. Remove Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Software Update, Bonjour, iTunes and QuickTime.


    5. Delete all Apple and iTunes-related folders in Program Files and check for hidden folders too.


    6. Use the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility to make sure everything relating to Apple has been removed.


    7. Click Start > Run and type services.msc and see all Apple-related services have been deleted (Bonjour, Apple Software Update and Apple Mobile Support).


    8. Restart your computer and try re-installing iTunes again, using the original iTunes Installer from Apple. If you need to, get the latest version from Apple.
