Hi,
Here's an oddball: I have few subfolders in my ITunes library i.e Tech, Deep etc. etc. They are definitely there and on my IPod but Live cannot see these folders... even if I do a search via Live's search engine (for the tracks in those folders) I get nothing.. are any of you guys experiencing anything like it? If so your wisdom will be much appreciated.
Cheers.

Are you playing them back from the Ipod ?
Or are they on the HD too. I don't think Live will be able to get them off the Ipod.
Thats my 2p.

If you purchased said music from iTMS (iTunes Music Store) they are encrypted with Apple's bs DRM s, and thus they cannot be opened in Live without first being decrypted via... other means.

Maybe you mix "playlists" and "subfolders"? (It's not possible to see or even import itunes-playlists in live, you can only import tracks and they get organized in artist-folders by itunes, playlists are a kind of "metadata")
