i-pod touch moving music from lappy
Probably a very simple answer, but how do I move music from my laptop to my new i-pod touch??!
Also, a supplemantary question, how do I change the alphabet to lower case? when I enter my e-mail address it always starts with a capital letter and therefore won't log in
Ta muchly in advance!

Install itunes on the laptop, import your music into itunes, plug in the ipod and you can either choose to auto sync (ie everything in itunes goes to the ipod) or manually sync (you drag the files yourself).
Manual sync is the safe way to go.
Should all be pretty obvious after installing itunes.

Be advised that I have recently had trouble getting my latest version of iTunes to interface with my three year old iPod. After much struggling, the local Apple store suggested that my Virus protection (Avast) was the problem. They recommended I download new versions of my virus protection and iTunes, disconnect from t'internet, delete my virus protector, delete iTunes, then re-install Itunes from the file downloaded and finally re-install my virus protection before re-connecting to t'internet.
It worked!

Did try the non itunes route once. Slowly, tracks disappeared from the ipod until it finally froze, died and was replaced at the applestore.
Never again.
Also, if everything is working, don't update it.

supplementary answer
to stop the initial capital letter when you log in to your email address, make sure the shift key ( looks like an up arrow by t he Z key) is not highlighted
if it is hit it again to unhighlight it.
On my Iphone the keyboard always auto capitalizes the start of the first word you type in , as you say not helpful for passwords etc.
