Help, please. My computer (running XP) has stopped responding to double clicks on the desktop icons. It will only accept - TWuG Nov 9, 07:35 9
- is your mouse in "left handed" mode? -- nm - oblique Nov 9, 07:37 8
  - I would assume that means the right button would be the double click to open button. Doesn't work. -- nm - TWuG Nov 9, 07:38 7
    - (re)install mouse (driver) software? -- nm - zork Nov 9, 07:40 6
      - The mouse is working normally on the web (except with Gmail which it won't "click to open" on messages. Truly weird behavior. -- nm - TWuG Nov 9, 07:43 5
        
        i would still do it -- nm - zork Nov 9, 07:46 4
        
        There was a reset button on the mouse that fixxed things. But the computer still seems wonky. - TWuG Nov 9, 07:49 3
        
        I hate wireless mice and keyboards. More trouble than they're worth -- nm - oblique Nov 9, 07:52 2
        
        I agree about wireless keyboards. I used to agree about mice. The new one I have has been pretty good, though. - TWuG Nov 9, 07:59
        
        and yet optical mice rule. -- nm - TFox Nov 9, 07:53
Since we've never owned an iPod, what do I need to do to purchase songs for it? Download iTunes, right and then it'll tell me everything I need? -- nm - CQ Nov 9, 07:33 10
- buy ipod. download Itunes. download Amazon Mp3 loader. Buy songs from Amazon. -- nm - decline Nov 9, 07:38 1
  - gotch. will do, and thanks to all -- nm - CQ Nov 9, 07:39
- You'll need iTunes on your computer to manage your music and iPod, but you can buy mp3s from Amazon for the same price. You're not locked - TWuG Nov 9, 07:37
- your first step should be loading the music you already own. then you are in most cases better off buying from someplace like Amazon MP3 than iTunes. - TFox Nov 9, 07:34 5
  - so Amazon's mp3 sales will be able to downloaded to the iPod. cool. I thought you had to use iTunes exclusively -- nm - CQ Nov 9, 07:39 4
    - You have to use iTunes to get the songs on the iPod (it won't sync with anything else) but not to purchase -- nm - oblique Nov 9, 07:41
    - iPods can accept pretty much any mp3. it's the iTunes music that is limited, as is your ability to pull things back off the iPod without a hack. - TFox Nov 9, 07:41
    - the amazon mp3 loader will import the songs into Itunes automatically. It's a nice lil' tool. -- nm - decline Nov 9, 07:40
    - itunes will also rip your cds and include them in your itunes library - tRuMaN Nov 9, 07:39
- pretty much. Then cry because you're now locked in forever :) -- nm - oblique Nov 9, 07:34

    - and send them where? american idol? ... actually, this isn't such a bad idea. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 07:12 5
