You have two choices:

1.  Put the player in Disk Mode (see the installation chapter of the Rockbox Manual or search these forums).   Then simply drag and drop music onto the player.

or

2.  Put your music on using iTunes.  If you go this route, you will need to use the Rockbox database to browse the music effectively.

Could you please try to stick to the forum rules and not post over and over again if no-one has replied to you? Just edit your previous post with whatever extra information you feel it should contain.

As to your problem - could you confirm whether you've enabled "disk mode" in iTunes on your PC ?

I can't imagine what search terms you used.  A search using the terms "itunes disk mode" shows this thread as the second result:

That thread leads to this one:

Look in particular at Soap's post in reply #12.

Im sorry im not as smart as some of you, i didnt really think itunes had something to do with disk mode..

But have you actually got it switched on or not ?
