Problem with new iPod Nano

[tino]

OK - so sorted out the -124 problem by turning off and on the Apple Mobile Device in Services.

Sorted out the non-syncing problem by pulling out the (powered) hub and plugging directly into the motherboard usb.

And it appears to be syncing my itune songs despite the pop-up box saying otherwise, but will confirm this once it's finished...

yay

It's synced some but not others.


So to summarise - had no problems at all with my 2nd generation Nano.

Shiny new 4th generation Nano is an absolute pile of pants....

do you have the "manually manage" box ticked in iTunes?

No - the others are what the pop-up box mentioned, but I have no idea why they were selected as 'not authorised'.

I have 100 songs that I need to keep my old iPod for...

Have you tried de-authorising all your computers? Go into iTunes, click on your account information. How many computers does it say are authorised to play music purchased with this account? If it's 5, I think you get the option to de-authorise them all. Then play one purchased track and enter your account info to re-authorise.

I have a PC where my iPod only works on one of the USB ports - the others seem to have "bad drivers" (??) associated with them after failed attempts to install the iPod first time around. Symptom same as yours - didn't recognise the new hardware. What cack.
