Kill the caps. It's unnecessary, harder to read and looks like you are shouting so DON'T.

iTunes is a windows only app. Apple flatly refuse to support Linux and most users hate Apple. This may help:

If you REALLY need crappy iTunes then you will need to shell out for a Windows license, install it in virtualbox (closed version so you get USB support) and run itunes there in seamless mode. Quite a lot of messing around for such a lacking device like ipods etc.

You can alternatively jailbreak the device and use it openly using your OS, no need for iTunes etc.

Can you help with this problem?
