Hi, Well, I did the restore, and so far so good. The restore and sync took less than 15 minutes. I'm guessing here. *smile*
I suppose the true test will be in my next sync. I've just made a small tweak to a playlist, and I think I'll sync again to see how long it takes. I'm hoping not long at all, since it is a very small change. Either way, I like that my Nano is Mac format now. Did I mention it is the 5th gen? As far as I know, it is the only generation that has this cool deep Christmas green color. I love it! *smile* Traci Sent by Macbook Air Mail On Nov 23, 2011, at 11:49 AM, M.
