iTunes (www.apple.com, free) organizes music, videos, and podcasts; it fetches album art automatically and shuttles files to your iPodbut for Mac users, that's just the beginning. With Podworks, (www.scifihifi.com, $8.00) you can back up your valuable song collection by dragging and dropping tracks from an iPod to a Mac.

Don't like one huge library for all your media files? Manage multiple libraries within iTunes with MultiTunes (www.porkrind.org/multitunes, $15.99).

iPresentIt (www.zapptek.com) turns your video-enabled iPod into a presentation powerhouse. Only the Mac version supports exports of Keynote presentations to iPhoto slideshows and preserves those fancy "builds" that reveal the bullet points on your slide one-by-one.

In the mood for a movie? Send any video to the iPod with VisualHub (www.techspansion.com, $23.32), a universal video converter you can use even if you don't know a codec from a frame rate.
