jtval 0 #27 March 2, 2005 I am on xp. yea the thing worked ok while I was running today. i dont know. I thought i had a bad ipod. all they are is a small harddrive. they can go bad/corrupt. i wondered if it wasnt beat up during shipping to the store etc. once I disconeccted it and recycled the power it seemed to work. if you notice the previous post I was talking about I wished there was a way to check the progress of the d/l. it was NOT working correctly then. b/c once it started working i noticed that the ITUNES will show you as the songs are being scraped into the ipod.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murrays 0 #28 March 2, 2005 Hey JT, Glad to hear that it is working for you. Yeah, iTunes keeps you fully informed as to what is going on when it is being updated. Are the transfers happening at a proper (fast) speed now?-- Murray "No tyranny is so irksome as petty tyranny: the officious demands of policemen, government clerks, and electromechanical gadgets." - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #29 March 3, 2005 yea. they are woprking now. I dont know wtf the problem was originally though. My girlfreind wanted one I told her once I get mine working I would buy hers for her. I plugged hers in and it started transfer to her ipod right off. mine was still acting goofy. I am gonna give it a few days before I exchange it. for all I know the drive is shot.(or going to be soon)My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
