Thank you, Socrates, for your response.
I seem limited in my choices to transfer music anywhere, given that my only music library is now in Winamp and I can't seem to copy it or send it, either to my Ipod or to Itunes.
When I select Manage Playlists / Send Play List To... in Winamp there is no "iTUNES" choice. Without it, I'm stuck with respect to making such a transfer
There is a choice however for sending the music library from Winamp to my Ipod as you suggested. I repeatedly attempted the transfer and all seems to look good as it appears to be transferring each song rapidly to the Ipod with a notation beside each song "status waiting." However, at the end of the final song transfer to the queue each song's notation changes from "status waiting" to "cannot open file." The Ipod is blank; no transfer has been completed.
I then attempted (by way of purchasing Winamp Pro) to ensure that the songs' format is correct. I attempted to send the play list to Winamp Pro's format converter and got an error message that "transcoding failed" and "cannot find decoder."
I very much appreciate your effort to solve this problem. I'm hoping you won't wast your time on this, but if anything simple crosses your mind I welcome any ideas. I thought about calling on assistance from an elementary school student... but, it's a pride thing.
Thank you kindly.
