Hi all. I'm banging my head on the wall using the eval copy of MC v10.0.122 and my iPod.
I'll try to outline the various issues I've run into tonight:
1. I don't see it listed in my Windows Explorer, but I've been syncing with iTunes successfully for months, so I know the iPod can connect to the PC. It seems like this is required. I've disabled the auto-connect within iTunes.
2. I installed the iPod plug-in, but it then comes up and tells me that I'm using v9 plug-in with the iPod.
3. After installing the plug-in, MC told me I had to initialize the iPod, which it did.
4. I then tried to synch the iPod by dragging 'all' Audio onto 'handheld player'. When I click transfer, it tells me it was successful 2 seconds later. Of course, nothing happened and the iPod is still empty.
It seems like it almost works. I've read through pages of discussion threads and the FAQ. My iPod is a second generation 20Gig unit.
Any thoughts? I really like what I've seen so far of MC and I'd like to use it.

UPDATE >> After going back into iTunes to restore my iPod, I saw an option for manually disconnectiong the iPod. That was the ticket to solving the entire lot of issues I was having. Once I did that, it showed up in Explorer, I renamed the devide to 'IPOD', (is that still necessary in v10?), did a restore, MC format, and now I'm uploading tunes from MC.
Maybe this will help someone else someday.
