Hey Steve,
Here's my tragic iPod-MC story. It's the same every time. It started at some point in MC11.
So every time, and that is every time, I try to sync the ipod (I don't do this very often) MC can't recognize what it have done previously. Fx, I wanted to add some new albums today, and MC can't read the DB probably or something. At least it says there's -7,9 MB available after sync with NO playlist selected.
The only thing there's to do about it is to initialize the darn thing in reupload the whole content (and that takes quite some time.)
When I have initialized it (with MC), MC won't notice it has been reinitialized before MC has been restarted. That's a double-bummer.
I hope you guys will either remove the iPod support from the front-page before releasing MC11 OR get the plugin together. I hope for the last.
Thanks in advance,
Rasmus
BTW: I won't be able to use this iPod any more. I will of course be happy to answer question but I can't do anything to concrete till I get it back in a couple of weeks. I have made a copy of iTunes.db.
