First Nano experience and MC 12

If you are going to use iTunes and MC you should disable iTunesHelper by using msconfig. This will prevent iTunes and MC from fighting over the device (iTunesHelper pops up iTunes when you plug in the iPod).

A good idea, I think you can also disable from within iTunes itself.

More recently I have disabled iTunesHelper, but even before that I did not experience conflicts -- I think I had turned off iTunes option of automatically opening.

Those boxes are to decide which files you want to put on the ipod I think.

I did have a strange thing happen on my first iPod synch with MC 12.

* as reported elsewhere, my renaming of my iPod was lost.

*  When I connected and looked at options,  there was no checkbox for "leave files on device even if not in synch list" (paraphrased).  The Action area ONLY had "Drop Files Here", no links for Details or Options.  Like a generic dialog box.

 Then I disconnected and reconnected and that check box showed up and the Details and Options links showed up, like it recognized something new the second time that it had not the first.
