+Media Manager
+=============
+
+Once you get your system set up for OpenLP you will be ready to add content to
+your setup. This will all happen through the **Media Manager**. The
+`Media Manager` contains all the bibles, songs, presentations, media, and 
+everything else that you will project through OpenLP.
+
+Enabling the Plugins
+--------------------
+
+You may need to enable the plugins that came with OpenLP. As you can see below
+this is what the `Media Manager` looks like with all the plugins enabled.
+
+.. image:: pics/mediamanager.png
+
+To enable the plugins navigate to :menuselection:`Settings --> Plugins` or
+press `F7`. You will then want to click on the plugin to the left that you want
+to enable and select **active** from the drop down box to the right.
+
+.. image:: pics/plugins.png
+
+
+Now you should be ready to add content to OpenLP check out the section of this
+guide on the individual plugins.

+Songs Plugin
+============
+
+The `Songs Plugin` is where you access your database of songs. From here you 
+can also edit songs, add new songs, and even convert songs from other formats.
+
+Song Importer
+=============
+
+If you are using an earlier version of OpenLP or come from another software 
+package, you may be able to convert your existing database to work in OpenLP
+2.0. To access the Song Importer :menuselection:`File --> Import --> Song`.
+You will then see the Song Importer window, then click :guilabel:`Next`.
+
+.. image:: pics/songimporter.png 
+
+After choosing :guilabel:`Next` you can then select from the various types of 
+software that OpenLP will convert songs from.
+
+.. image:: pics/songimporterchoices.png
+
+Then click on the file folder icon to choose the file of the song database you
+want to import. See the following sections for information on the different 
+formats that OpenLP will import.
+
+Importing from OpenLP Version 1
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Converting from OpenLP Version 1 is a pretty simple process. You will first 
+need to locate your version 1 database file.
+
+Windows XP::
+
+ C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\openlp.org\Data\songs.olp
+
+Windows Vista/7::
+
+ C:\ProgramData\openlp.org\Data\songs.olp
