I've had my Zune for several days now and have NOT been able to figure out how to load music on it from "my music" on my computer. You have made it so easy for me to understand. I'm an idiot, just not a 'complete' one. I'm retireing sone and bought a Zune for my tunes while riding my cruiser motorcycle across the country. I got as far (with your help) as the, "Once done click OK..." instruction. I'll go now and try to do the rest of it. Thanks again, Larry (wingcruiser)

Where do I find the "collections column? I have my Zune connected and I'm signed in... In the upper left after signing in it says, (in heavy letters) "collection" and on the same line in lighter type (not bold) "marketplace, social, device. On the next line it says, (in bold type) "music" (and in the lighter type again) videos, pictures,podcasts, channels" Nothing happens when I try to click on "collections". Also what does "sync" or syncing" mean? Larry (wingcruiser) PS: If anyone else would like to chime in and help, please, be my guest.
