When I'm in Terminal, I see this: Code: $ cd /Volumes/malu/iPod_Control/Music $ ls F00/ F02/ F04/ F06/ F08/ F10/ F12/ F14/ F16/ F18/ F01/ F03/ F05/ F07/ F09/ F11/ F13/ F15/ F17/ F19/ "malu" is a 5GB iPod. If I attach a 10GB unit, it also has F00-F19 folders in Music (within which are the specific mp3 files). Does every iPod have these 20 folders, or is it somehow related to the size of the iPod disk?? Thanks for any insight on this. Dave Taylor
