ipod confusion

[the_music_man]

ok so when i go to itunes and see my little ipod and then i make a playlist and i name it Winter Mix or whatever i drag the files in there and everything looks alright. then when i actually play the music on the ipod the songs they aren't in the playlist anymore, they are just in teh regular songs folder. does anyone know why the playlist folder is empty even tho i dragged the songs there......

Are you clicking on the iPod icon before you create the playlist ? So it appears under the iPod rather than in the iTunes part of the 'source' list ?

just use ehpod

There is always third-party software, but you shouldn't need to resort to that (Unless you hate iTunes of course, then there's reason).

redchair software is really cool, but its not free and also the coolest features are the ones locked, but then again, who doesnt do that to their software. ohh well
