Or, is it the itunes program itself that has such limitations. While this book does introduce you to the basics of the ipod and itunes, there are questions I had that are still unanswered. They seem not to be. If so, the limits of the program should be clearly stated in the book. For instance, I couldn't find anything about customizing my itunes files to that individual album selections don't appear as albums on their own. The book seems weak in terms of editing help.
That exclamation point character is bad news and dealing with it is tedious. The book enabled me to `hit the ground running' with my new Ipod.Without it, my sessions with it and Itunes would have been grim.The book needs a discussion of the `exclamation point' character that can appear in Itunes' window when the Music library or a playlist is displayed.
It does not offer any other helpful tips, shortcuts, etc. It does not explain in any more detail. The title for this is very accurate - the Missing Manual. other than what Apple already tells you about. I was very disappointed. If you are missing your iPod manual and for some reason unable to download a free one, then go ahead.
