Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Manage two separate iTunes libraries. I am the only one with an iPod.
I also like automatic syncing, and don't want to have to set up a playlist to manage what goes on the iPod. Maybe I forgot to mention that a crucial factor here is our inherent laziness.
Hold down Option while launching iTunes and you get the option to choose a library.
Is that Ctrl on a PC?
When you hold option down while launching, it pops up with a "Quit, Create Library, Choose Library" buttons.
Not sure what Win button combo is. Possibly Alt.
Dana,
Here is a cheap shareware program that manages multiple libraries if you don't want to hit the button each time:
Is that Ctrl on a PC?
I think Omnis is right, that it's Alt on a PC. Ctrl is usually the key you swap out for Command on a Mac.
Awesome. I will try that once we get iTunes up and running on the computer. Thanks, all.

Weren't we just talking about Radio Shack? [link]
Mom just sent me an article about the top ten companies actively hiring and I think "The Shack" was #2.
Hmmm, maybe I should look for a job there....
don't do it! I was offered a job when I was in college. "You come in here a lot. You know what you are looking for. Do you need a job, we are hiring for the holiday season". "sure, what do you pay". "we pay $(crappy)/hr" "Golly, that's crappy". "well there is commissions, once you are trained". "how long does that take, and do you get a better wage until then". "no. And it takes 3 months". "who gets my commissions while I'm training" "your trainer". "So. Let me get this straight. It's 2 weeks before Thanksgiving. I'll be asked to work CRAZY hours, get paid crap, help sell tons of stuff, and not get commission until AFTER the after xmas sale??!!??" "wow, when you put it like that, it sounds bad" "ya think!"
