May sound like a silly question but i recently got an unlocked iphone, and am using it with orange.
Now i'm going to hook it up to my pc for the first time to download some music from my itunes library that i still have from my previous ipod. What i want to know is what will happen when i connect it to the pc. Will the pc just recognise it as an external memory, then i can just click and drag my music???
Is there anytyhing i should be aware of before i connect it to my pc??

I know it sounds a silly question but any help is appreciated

It'll work like your old iPod and iTunes. Just plug it in and go seeing as it's been unlocked and activated

You can't do that. Has to be done via Installer or the App Store.

It should just show up on the menu, mines never done otherwise...

Have you got the lasted version of iTunes? Only the newer version support the iPhone, the older ones don't have the drivers. Click Help > Check for Updates.
