If you want to drag stuff to/from the iPhone you need to make sure the "Manually manage music and videos" checkbox is ticked on the Summary pane when the iPhone is connected to iTunes.

awesome I figured it was something small like that. What about moving the songs over? I basically wanna make this mirror my nano.

Basically, you just need to drag whatever songs, albums, playlists, etc. you want onto your iPhone. The iPhone is just another device like the nano, so if you've been adding music to the nano, you should have no problem.

I don't think the iPhone is treated the same way the nano is in iTunes. I had the same red X situation at first too.

Make the playlists you want for you phone in iTunes. Don't even have your phone hooked up yet. When you have the playlists created, then plug in your phone. Select the iPhone under devices on the left. Go to the music tab at the top, and select the playlists that you created and sync. That should take care of it.
