Maybe you're already using it, but this website is the best around for Japan's trains:

http://www.hyperdia.com/cgi-english/hyperWeb.cgi

It covers all lines, costs, transfers and times. Just make sure you spell the station name correctly.

There are a number of ways to get from the airport into central Osaka; my best advice is to use your JR railpass ot take a limited express (eg the Ltd Express Haruka) into the central osaka area (I think Tennoji is the first available stop for a transfer). From there, change to the Midosuji subway line. This is the equivalent to our city loop (well, it's not a loop, but it connects all the central city stops). You can't use the JR pass for this, but it'll only cost you a few hundred yen to get to yodoyobashi, shinsaibashi, umeda, namba etc. The lines are colour-coded, and the Midosuji subway line is always red. The signs are all in English as well as Japanese.
