Re 7.1 - not sure Abu, the main reason for the release was supposed to be to address Windows Vista issues. However, they have modded CoverFlow so I suspect there may be some media library file structure changes. |

I'm having the same problem with my 1G iPod shuffle. My 5.5G 80GB iPod shows up just fine under Winamp, even after being synced with iTunes 7.1, but my shuffle won't. |

I tried reformatting my shuffle with ml_iPod, which did the trick. Trouble is, if iTunes is installed, it'll just auto-open the next time you plug in your iPod and reformat the device with the new format again. The only solution for me would be to uninstall iTunes completely (I don't have a copy of 7.0.2 anymore) and just use Winamp, which isn't an option since the rest of my family uses iTunes. |

That isn't the case, you need to make sure you remove the tick in the iTunes setup for the iPod so that it doesn't always open iTunes when it is connected. |

Nope. Already tried that. It's a per-device setting and as such is stored directly on the iPod. Reformat the iPod in Winamp and the setting is lost. Since the default is to open iTunes on connect, I'm out of luck. |

How about stopping the iTunesHandler.exe from loading at start up, this is the "real" problem. Disable this program from running, and iTunes will be none the wiser that you have connected your iPod. Only downside is if that you have autoplay enabled, it will bring up the drive when you connect. |

Does anybody know where iTunes stores this setting? So you could save that file and restore it after the ml_iPod formatting procedure. __________________ |

Even better, I added a recovery method to ml_ipod. It's in patch 2.02p13. If you attach your iPod that has been modified by iTunes 7.1, you get this: __________________ |

Okay, well Winamp recognizes my 5.5G 80GB iPod, even after syncing it in iTunes 7.1, so whatever changed only changed for the shuffle. |

...which is why I suggested making it optional. You can still have it turned on by default if you want. |

Thanks, abu. I installed 2.03, set that option in my ml_iPod.ini files, and now it's back to the old, pre-2.0 behavior. |

I have two, my mom has three, my sister has one... so there's a grand total of 6 iPods in my house. This should definitely be a global setting, I think. |

showParseDatabaseDlg: starting with v2.03p01, this can be set to 0 either as a global or iPod setting. So it's up to you __________________ |

I feel like there is going to be very limited feedback on this issue as I (and I'm imagining many others) are afraid to use latest versions of iTunes in tandem with ml_ipod. I'm afraid of it screwing with my music and having to re-load everything. Once pictures get implemented into ml_ipod, I'll have no regrets PERIOD about iTunes. |

If I were to plug my iPod into a friend's computer who uses iTunes (frankly and sadly, most people use iTunes with their iPods), would I be able to play songs from it without having any problems? It's not really too much of an issue if there are problems as this situation is rare for me. This is just more of a 'just so I know' question. I only would like to know if I can. I don't want to disconnect my iPod to find a bunch of stuff changed resulting from my ignorance. |

), so it should work.
I just finished uninstalling 7.1 and putting back 7.0.2. You'll have to wait a bit while I upgrade again.
