iTunes help

I have iTunes on two PC's at home to listen to internet radio. I have my iPod synced with one of the PC's. I bought and downloaded some music using iTunes to the PC that's not the one that my iPod is synced to. How do I get the tracks on to my other PC, and/or onto my iPod, cos when I plug my iPod into my other PC it just wants to wipe it and start again.

An ipod is only associated with one PC. If you have the latest version of iTunes and you have the same Apple ID on both then you should be able to share libraries and drag the music from on PC to the other.

Jailbreak the Ipod and dont use Itunes its nowt but a money making skank from Apple.

Has anyone experienced difficulties in grouping songs? I've a few albums where a couple of songs seem to have downloaded separately (different composers???) and been saved in the iTunes file under the same album title, but in a different section. Any ideas how to merge them???

Isn't there a homeshare option on Itunes for this?

If this is no good I have a 1tb iomega network hdd that is a media and itunes server going cheap if its any good?

Scootz,

Select all the tracks and make sure they all have the same album artist. You can also set them all to be part of a compilation. They should show up correctly in itunes but will appear under 'compilations' on an ipod.

Just make smart playlists for everything, because otherwise, your stuff goes all over the place and you`ll never find it.
