I have an ipod which totally rocks, but I recently bought a rio cali mp3 player much better for running with holds 30 songs much longer than I run. Anyway I can't seem to get itunes to recognize it. Is it not possible to use two mp3s on one mac? I am on an old school imac 600mhz running the latest version of jaguar. Thanks in advance!

Well I'm sure that isn't the case. You can have multiple iPods plugged in and they both show up in iTunes at the same time. Also, the Rio I had a few years ago worked fine with iTunes. Is it formatted for Windows or something? I don't know if that can even be the case, I'm just taking stabs. I don't know how the solid state cards in Rios are formatted.

Well I know with my friends' MP3 player (not sure what brand), we needed to put the driver for the player into ~/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug Ins/ folder and when we started iTunes and plugged it in, it showed up there.
