Default Greetings & Salutations...

New to Zune. Just purchased it yesterday.

I've read a few of the prerequisite posts, etc., so here goes:

Name: Bill
Origins/Location: Atkinson, IL
Age: 53
Sex: male
Hobbies: Guitar, travel, photog, home improvements
Favorite Bands/Artist: Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Ted Nugent, Aerosmith, etc...
Color Zune you own: Black 80GB
Favorite hacks/mods, if any: N/A (at the moment)...
How'd you find ZuneBoards?: Search and destroy...mostly searching...
Something about me: Army civilian, work with weapons, lived in Germany for 9 years and visited most of Europe, been to Korea a number of times, ah, yes, I'm a homebrewer also...retiring next year with 35 plus years Federal service.

...and YES, I will have lots of questions...

I've uploaded a movie, deleted some of the pics and uploaded/deleted music, so I kind of got the handle on Zunes capabilities, BUT (you knew there'd be one)...I have over 80GB of music on my HD, but a lot of it is not recognized by the Zune software when I try to upload/search/list.

Also, I want to make a folder of some of my favorite misc songs and not have them listed as being in an album. Is there a way to load them this way?

Thanks for the welcomes all!

I haven't checked into the playlists yet, but I did figure that I could D&D songs from CDs with no covers/pics to another cover (accidentally). I'm going to have to delete and reload lots of songs...I have over 90GB on my HD so I have to be choosy...



Soccerfreak: do I just D&D the songs onto the ZUNE icon or what?



Also, I'm not into sports or games, but which site is best for downloading movies and TV shows?

Thanks in advance.

Well just go to the music settings and then add the folders you want to be watched in the watching section so they will frequently update it.

Welcome nice to have an older member we need some maturity

I totally don't understand this:
