I, for one, use iTunes for all my music managing needs, and so I’ve never tried dropping files from the Finder straight into the iPod.

This is far less of what I would expect from Apple and far more of what I would expect from Prism DuroSport.įiled Under: Actual Mileage, Apple, iTunes Tagged With: Apple, iPod, iTunes, prism-durosport Reader Interactions Sure that would help, but on a larger scale, that just makes it worse: nothing more frustrating than an “upgrade” that messes up all of your previous settings. I realize that there might be some kind of setting I need to reset. This is exactly the type of crap that everybody hates Microsoft for: programs that force the user to take a certain path towards their goal.

So why am I now forced to create and manage an iTunes playlist in order to update my Nano? Why won’t iTunes 7 play nice with Windows Explorer? It might seem overly complicated - as a matter of fact, it is overly complicated - but this is what works for me. Each playback device has a different configuration of songs, suiting the purposes to which I put it. So, what I like to do is to put all of my songs into a file system, and then direct those songs to my various playback devices. Different places, different purposes, different playback devices. Here’s the thing: I have a lot of songs, and I listen to a different subset of songs at home, at work, while jogging and in my car. This is double work, and not my preferred method of managing my music. In order to get music it would actually recognize as music, I had to create a playlist in iTunes, add the songs to that playlist, and then subsequently add the songs from that playlist to my Nano. It seems that - for whatever reason - iTunes 7 will not allow me to add songs from my file system directly to the Nano. Oh sure, it took space, but wasn’t seeable as a song. After determining that it was all clear, I did what I’ve always done: used Windows Explorer to drag a file directly to the iPod window in iTunes, only, unlike every single other time in the last year I’ve owned the Nano, it didn’t show up. So I said frack that, and restored the iPod, figuring that I would just start from scratch. This, BTW, is exactly one of my fears about the already infamous Zune “three days / three plays” issue: the music stays on your hard drive, but is forever inaccessible. I had 3.72GB of something taking up space on my, it’s just that neither iTunes nor my Nano could find it. Gone like Kahoutek.Įxcept of course, it wasn’t: according to the space indicator, it was all still there, taking up room on the Nano’s hard drive. 4GB - 700 songs (that 1000 songs is a 128k joke) - had simply vanished. It was there in iTunes 6, but not so much anymore. So I downloaded and installed iTunes 7 last week, plugged in my iPod Nano, and I saw the strangest thing: all of my music had disappeared.
