IPod Playlists Deleted by Media Center
« on: November 28, 2003, 10:44:31 am »
Anyone else out there have their IPod playlists deleted when transfering songs from Media Center 9.1.291?  This just started happening.  I'm sure I did not have this problem until 9.1.  This erased about 40 playlists that I had created and is a MAJOR problem.

Not a known problem but could you use the current version?

Fixed in 9.1.308.  No further action required.

I think the playlist removal is not resolved in 308 because I experience the problem in 309.  I've reported this in 309



BUG,

I was synchronizing my ipod with MC 9.1.309.  Some of my files showed up with no PLAYLIST after the sync.  After I eject, I realize that my PLAYLIST in my ipod has disappeared.  I tried to hook up and sync again.  But MC crashes every time.

I had no way of getting my ipod back with MC.  I needed to use Musicmatch, supplied by iPod to sync the database again- to remove all the files in iPod.
Then I hooked into MC and it works.

I think that MC should consider the iPOD database can be corrupted, and apply the necessary logic so that it does not crash.  When this is the case, at least we can select REBUILD IPOD to reintialize the IPOD again.  But if MC keep crashing when there is a problem, we can't reset and is very frustrating.

Please use the iPod support thread here.  Reading it first may help.

JNKH,

At the point where the iTunesDB is corrupted, delete the file from Explorer and then use the rebuild option in MC.
