Re: iPod not copying files even as Root

Can you mount the iPod at all? (for example, at the command line)

I don't use any special applications with my iPod besides a file manager / command line. Since I installed udisks2 I noticed my iPod now auto-mounts in a new location (under /run) which is causing me some minor annoyances. Do you think the problem could be related to that?

Re: iPod not copying files even as Root

yes I can it even show up in banshee and all other applications but when I try to copy stuff to it it will just stay copying forever I can even playback stuff from it
