iPod 3 ???'s, ipod games, itunes album artwork and mp3 conversion

[liquidmonkey]

i have recently had a problem with my ipod (160gig) and it needed to be restored.
the good news is that i copied the hidden game folders / files onto my PC first BUT when i copied them back to the ipod (after restoring it) they do not work

have i missed a file? is there a way to get the games back? i actually paid for them in the first place too!

**************************************

is there a way to get the itunes album artwork that itunes downloads from the istore and embed it directly into the mp3's?
any 3rd party stuff that does this?

its just easier (and makes waaaaaaaaay more sense) to have the album artwork IN the id tags.

have recently upgraded to latest itunes and apple in all its wisdom has removed (or moved) the 'change to mp3 on import' function. is it still there?


thanks in advance and for reading

You don't have them in iTunes on your computer?

I recently was able to "upgrade" my 1st gen games to the latest version so they would play on more than the Video. I used the iTunes contact - sent the order numbers and asked how i did it. They had me repurchase the games in the newest version - and then credited my account back. It was very easy and pleasant to deal with - and i had the credit in 2 days.

THis is originally how it worked i think. Because i added artwork to all my songs - and when i went to put it on my DHs 1gb Nano, the artwork added a HUGE amount of space. Seriously, it was like 30-50 songs less we could put on there - and with a 1gb device that is a lot of songs! Artwork came off.......

I found this last night when i upgraded myself.

iTunes->Preferences->General->Button that says, "import settings"
