Fay, also, ipodlounge is a really great place to ipod help of this sort if we can't help you out.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Nah, it's not synced. I'm not sure what happened, but I'm running some troubleshooting.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Fay, I've had problems with an iPod refusing to play most of the songs on it. Unfortunately, the only solution was to reformat the iPod and reload the music onto it. However, I didn't have the problem with any iTunes library then, so you may have other options.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So, the company that makes the iPod hard drives has come out with a new 120 GB model (the same size as its iPod drives). Are there any rumors as to if/when we'll be seeing 120 GB iPods?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Not really, though it has been a while since Apple has updated the full-sized iPod.

The relationship of the drive-making company (Toshiba? I can't remember, it's been a couple months since they announced the 120gig) to Apple is pretty solid, so I think it's a safe assumption that we'll be getting 120s. And god, I could use one. Not that I'm going to buy one, having just gotten the 80 (which is, of course, full).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I seem to recall hearing the direction they were going in was with flash memory. They may not keep going up the traditional HD path, or they may do both. But they are in bed with Samsung, I think, for flash drives, and they've been expanding their capacity.

SA, how is your 80 Gig Ipod full? Do you have a computer hard drive that is a teragig or something?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Dear God.
So it seems that all the CDs I loaded on my iPod at my parents' house - ie pretty much my entire music collection - is toast. Some of the songs I loaded there via purchase-from-itunes also toast - some not.
The myriad songs that I had already loaded onto it some months earlier, consisting of my neighbour's entire music collection (because my laptop wouldn't upload music onto the iPod)?
Still there.
Which - what the hell? I only had that illicit stuff in the first place because I couldn't upload my own music. I would have been perfectly philosophical about losing it. I don't listen to the vast majority of it at all, and those albums I did find via this I'd be quite happy to go and buy.
But no. It's all my own music that is gone.
WHY GOD, WHY????
AND I now have an undestroyable popup virus announcement thing on my work computer. Will not go away. Like UberTribbles, they are. Or a Tribble Hydra.

Our wings are not tired
My 80 GB iPod is beyond full as well. I won't be happy until they are at least 160 GB, if not 200. My music alone takes up 100 GB, and that leaves me no room for putting TV shows and such on my iPod.
