@Dicky, MissC:
If you want to setup security on wireless routers without worrying about keys etc, then check your wireless router for "MAC authentication" (Just got a netgear myself, forget what its called in there though lol) and just work off the MAC (hardware) address of your PC/Mac.
It'll stop anyone freeloading off your wireless connection too

Senuti is your best bet, but you have to tell it where to put the music by choosing 'Preferences' from the 'Senuti' menu, then click 'Copying'. There's also an option in there to automatically add it to iTunes.
By default it is set to copy the music to your users 'Music' folder. If you've already copied it check if its there...
Open your 'Macintosh HD > Users > (Your User Name) > Music' and hopefully it should all be in there. If so, open iTunes.
In iTunes go to "iTunes > Preferences > Advanced > General' and check 'Keep iTunes Music folder orgnaised' and 'Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library'. Click 'OK'.
Then drag all your music into iTunes and wait while it adds it and sorts it all out for you.
Finally, you just have to make sure you haven't got two copies of all your music.
iTunes will store all your music in:
'Macintosh HD > Users > (Your User Name) > Music > iTunes > iTunes Music'.
Any other copies of your music can be deleted.
Hope that helps!

evening all. Got aother query, I was on the apple site taking a brows after jools told me about the new 17" macbook pro (luving that) and saw that using address book and bluetooth there is a way of sending texts from your mac using your phones bluetooth connection. After scouring the apple site I can't work out how to do it, and I can't see anything obvious in address book so im kinda lost. Google found me something called smsmac whcih is all well and good, but i want to do it through my phone, I don't suppose you know how to do this do you?
Cheers Luke

To send a text all you do is right click on the mobile number in Address Book and choose "Send message" from the menu.
That's after pairing your phone and clicking the bluetooth icon in Address Book.
Trouble is, Apple have been a bit slack in adding new phone support, so you may need to look for an Address Book hack.
www.macosxhints.com is a good place to start.
But, I think only Sony Ericsson phones are supported...

cheers jools, I have it kind of working now, I just repaired my phone and it seemed to send a text, but the 2 I tried to send before that did not seem to get delivered... Also it doesnt seem to have the reply thing - shows recieved messages work on it.
Also another thing about wireless etc, I have a roku m1001/m1000 and I want to control it with itunes, after looking on google I found a program that allows this, but its only for itunes, are there any for mac os or is it just one of those things people don't make?

Unfortunately, I know nothing about the roku m1001/m1000 so I can't help on that one!
