Thanks DCJ. On your advice, I downloaded the PCL6 and it's working perfectly so far.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is a naive and foolish question, but does there exist a program that allows you to run SQL queries directly against an XML file, as opposed to importing the XML data into a database first?
I ask because there are many times I'd love to run an SQL query against my iTunes music collection.

They're working on something called "XQuery", which is an SQL-like language for XML. Most implementations are in the experimental stage.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does Dell have stores? If I need the photo cartridge for the Dell Photo AIO Printer 922, is there anywhere I can get it other than their web site?

Hmm. Crap. Now I'm all confused. I had my iPod on manual update. And then I thought "ooh, I'll just tell it to only automatically update my "Purchased Music" playlist, since that's generally where my new music is coming from anyway". And somehow, doing that meant it took away all my other playlists!! No fair!! Now I'm reupdating my iPod. Which I can't tell if that means all of my songs will be doubled. ARGH. This is not helping my hangover headache.

I did end up with doubled songs. I should have just started out with synching -- manual update also means that sometimes when I create a playlist and copy it over, it copies the song over (I'm thinking this is if I've changed a rating on the song on the iPod, or something).
My goal is to delete everything on the PC, copy it all over from the iPod, and then set up synching. But I'm wondering what this may do with the purchases music on the iPod -- will it play properly on a wiped iTunes?
I'm hoping.

Well, the problem is, I used to have it synching, but then I went and copied some songs from other peoples' computers onto the iPod. And it told me if I went back to synching it would clear everything off the iPod, and I wouldn't have those songs anymore. And I thought if I just did playlist synching it would work, but NOOOOO. All the songs I just got from my BIL and hadn't yet listened to? GONE. Fuckers.

So I'm trying to rip some cds I just got, and for some reason my ripping software can't access any of the online databases. I tried dbPowerAmp and iTunes, which use different databases, and neither of them work. I checked my firewall, and my internet connection is definitely working.
I'm at a loss. I really don't want to type in all the information about each song on these albums. What do I do?
