my ipod touch is not detected by MC13
« on: March 19, 2009, 07:42:00 am »

I tried it several times but my new bought ipod is not detected by MC13.140.

It's an ipod touch, 16 GB, last 3 digits of serial are 203, model no. is A1288

Possible I am doing something wrong? (ipod shuffle and old ipod classic working smoothly)

I would prefer not to downgrade the firmware of my ipod touch. Are there plans to upgrade MC to that new database setup?

Meanwhile, I need to keep itunes on my PC.

That doesn't work for me. Connecting the ipod touch does not create a drive so I cannot assign a device path.

If it were simple, we'd support the Touch and the iPhone.  It isn't.  You could tell Apple what you want.

ok, I see. Bad news, but good to know that you do not support iphone and ipod touch.

As former ipod models worked with MC I was confident that this also applies for current models. So, I hope they one day will facilitate third-party media center software accress to their hardware. Isn't that a similar case to what Microsoft did in the past with their operating system and the must-use of internet explorer?
