How do I stop iTunes opening two boxes when I open it, unlike all the other programes which only have one box?

On windows 7 when you open a programme, the boxy thing that sorta pops up, with every other programe just the one pops up, but with iTunes one stays flat and one pops up

Oh I know what you mean now, do you have it pinned to the taskbar? If you do then unpin it and that might solve the problem.

oh since you're talking about ipods, Is there anyway I can put songs on my ipod without wiping whats on it already? I originally did it at work but I have stuff d/l at home and it says if I synchronize it will wipe what's there already?

If the songs are in your itunes it will remove them and put them back in while syncing. If they aren't already on your computer then there is nothing that can be done I'm afraid.

I converted a video to MP4 format and copied it onto the Itunes window on my comp but there it stays, it doesn't sync to the IPod touch.

Oh well on the sync screen there should be a tab that says movies at the top, click on that and select what ever videos you want to sync.
