I'm not on the Mac right now so I can't test this problem but I think you have to point iTunes to where your music is.

So in iTunes, under preferences then advanced, there should be an "iTunes Music Folder location" or something. Go into that and click "Change location" and point it to the folder that you imported with iPodrip.

It is a good idea to keep this in your Home Folder under "Music". (Macintosh HD>Home Folder (Your name most likely)>Music)

I think this is it but if not, I'll have a look on the Mac when I can. You might also have to consolidate the library (Menu bar, Advanced, Consolidate Library) but try the above first.
