Someone teach me how to use f**king iTunes for f**ks sake.
I dunno, f**king degree in a pens-rich subject, over a decade working with pens-things, and f**king iTunes has beaten me.
Right, this is the problem - I've got about a billion times more music in my library then my iPod can hold, so I use the "Sync Only Checked Songs" facility, to pick and chose what goes onto the iPod.
Problem is, that iTunes now only wants to play music that has been checked - if I try to listen to anything that is unchecked, at the end of the first track it skips to the next checked track - meaning that I can't listen to an unchecked album -of which I have hundreds.
I don't want to check that album, 'cos I don't want it on my iPod, I just want to listen to it now, BUT THE FUCKING THING WON'T LET ME.
Please, someone, tell me that I'm being painfully dim, and there's an easy way round this.
