Jerry, while we are on the subject, I have never bothered with the i-tunes
except for playing what is on there already, but if I put a   CD with music
into the slot, can I then play it and also import the songs into one of
those empty playlists? I have been wanting to do that for the last few
weeks, but then got sidetracked with the photoshop.  And BTW : what does the
Mp3 player stand for and do?
