I recently got a 30g iPod video. I have had either a nano or mini for years. Previously, when I would want to move songs on or off my ipod, I would simply drag and drop or right click and copy/cut/etc.

Well, now that's not working for me. I initially set up my new ipod on itunes to sync with my library every time. Well, now I don't want it to do that.

One problem I have is that it syncs, then disconnects. It doesn't stay connected to let me work with anything on the ipod.

Anyhow, when I set it up, I set it up to sync, and then I got a TON of stuff I DONT want on my ipod, so I went in and unchecked the sync option, and it deleted ALL my music off the library.

Additionally, since it disconnects after syncing, it doesn't allow me to remove any music.

I guess my main problem is actually figuring out how to make it stay connected so that I can move music around? I would assume that would then allow me to drag and drop and/or delete music?
