2 Questions 1)iPod and 1)Quicktime

[twister]

1st. Is there any good programs for backing up my iPod? I want to download EVERYTHING so if i trade it in i'll have everything.

2nd. Is there a way to extract the audio from an mpg file? 'Extract Tracks' is greyed out in quicktime and i have no other ideas.

Thanks

These probably aren't the answers you want, but I'll go ahead and give it a shot:

1) iPod - your music should already be in iTunes, so you wouldn't have to back that up. Any data on the iPod could be easily copied to your hard drive, thereby "backing it up."

2) QuickTime - I believe you need QuickTime Pro to extract audio. I have QuickTime 6 Pro, and I can extract the audio or video tracks from a number of different formats with no problem. You might do a search on versiontracker.com for a program other than QuickTime that'll provide this functionality.

Sorry, I know these aren't the best answers, but... perhaps someone else can help you better.

Well the music is not all in my iTune library. I don't see any need to keep it on my desktop when it's on my iPod.

Also i've tried quicktime 5 pro and it wouldn't let me extract the audio. The option was greyed out. Hummmm

thanks for the ideas though
