Help! New 15 GB iPod - Yet to be enjoyed
Can someone please help me? I received my new 15 GB iPod a little over a week ago from Apple.com and I have yet to enjoy it. My system is XP and I have musicmatchbox and ephpod installed. My first problem is that while the iPod is docked, it always has "Do Not Disconnect". Even when I eject or unmount it. I have never gotten the "Ok to Disconnect" message. I get the "iPod is full" message only after downloading 40 songs or so. I just recently was able to get a little over 100 songs sync'd, but that was because I left everything connected for days. The transfer rate is terribly slow. I have ordered a usb 2.0 / firewire pci card for my desktop. Could the usb 1.1 possibly be my problem? Lastly, I noticed that when I sync from musicmatchbox, I get the named playlist on my ipod and a blank (no name) playlist with a duplicate of songs. How do I fix this? Which one of the software packages: ephpod or musicmatchbox is best to use?
I am a computer programmer and this is baffling me!
