I just bought my first ever apple, a 14" iBook. I've used apples in various jobs and at school for 6+years, but never owned one. So here's my situation, my wife already owns an original iPod and I have a 4G iPod. We both want to have log-ins on OSX and seperate playlists in iTunes etc. How do we set this up so each iPod/log-in is unique. The main issue is I have more music and capacity so I want to have my entire cd collection available, and she only listens to a selection of the the music we own and wants that available to her. Is this possible?

Thanks!

Simple. Delete all of her music (all that you have duplicates of) and put it all on your name, then turn on file sharing on your name - and turn on look for shared music on her name - It will find 'scollie41's Music Library' And she can play it off of yours. Just update the iPod on your name and you are good to go!
