iPod will not disconnect

On the last couple of occasions when updating my iPod it will not disconnect when I click on the eject button in iTunes4 or when I close iTunes and move the iPod icon on desktop to trash.
A box comes up with a 'Files/programmes in use elsewhere' message.
Any ideas?

Do you have any files/folders on the iPod's firewire disc partition? Any Calendars open in iCal or Contacts open in Address Book?

No but I have just installed an iTrip recently. Could it have something to do with the iTrip frequencies playlist or anything else iTrip related?

iTrip requires software install on the iPod?

Yep - done that and iTrip working fine but now I have this disconnection problem.

Is iTrip the software open when you try to disconnect? Next time before you disconnect, go to the Apple menu and run Force Quit to see if it shows up in the open software. If it does, close it.
