post iPod ejecting problem
I typically don't bump topics--but I am having the exact same problem--iPod
enters infinte loop once I plug it in. When it is done updating, it automatically disconnects. As soon as it disconnects, it automagically reconnects--therefore making it impossible to unmount it by any means oher than yanking the plug. "BrokeStudent" wrote: Short-of-the-long... when ejecting my iPod from the computer, Vista attempts to link the iPod back again... without success. Two methods of ejecting which yield same results. 1) Go to "computer" and right-click on iPod drive and select "eject". 2) If iTunes is opened, press the eject button. Problem: Vista will eject iPod, but immediately attempts to connect it again. If you have "computer" file open to view all available drives, I then see my iPod bouncing between "Devices with Removable drives" and "Portable Media Players"... It is like Vista can't figure out which catagory to place the iPod into. Temp solution is to physicaly remove the USB cable from the computer. If you leave the cable plugged in to the computer and remove only the iPod, it will still try to connect it, even though it isn't attached. You have to remove the USB cable. Any ideas? |
