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!
okay, unfortunately that's the only help I can give. sorry about that. maybe a nano expert will show up.
thanks, le nub, I appreciate your trying.
I have no idea what to do other than suggest a visit to the Applestore with the iMac and nano and cable in hand. It may just be that the iMac is too outmoded for these newfangled devices. :-(
You could try creating a new user account on the computer, and see if iTunes works better with that one.

Hey, wait a minute. Why is my credit card burning hot this morning?
I tried to backup my iTunes last night and it said the file was too big for a CD and to put in a DVD. Well, I only have a CD-R drive... How the heck to I back up my stuff?
That's odd. What version is it?
I know iTunes 7 is supposed to ask for another CD. I don't know abut earlier versions.
You could use a standard CD burner program, like Nero or some such to span disks and just back up your library folder.
So, if I buy a used Tivo - I just get the machine and it will still work w/o the subscription to the tivo service, right?
