iPod problem

Okay, so I grabbed my iPod to sync it because I had gotten some new music. I had listened to it just a few minutes before and it was fine, just for reference. Anyways, I plug it into my computer, and it says that my iPod has been corrupted and that a reset would be in order. A minor inconvenience, but no big deal; it reset itself and I thought nothing of it. However, upon the menu opening on my iPod I've found an unsettling development - it says my memory is completely used up, with 0 space left over. I have not yet synced any songs on it, so all space is taken up by what is "other files". Has anyone had this problem? I have no idea how to fix it and I've tried hooking it up again multiple times to no avail.

please no smartass ipod comments, just workarounds

Re: iPod problem

i had a similar problem to this, except i just unplugged the ipod and plugged it back in instead of resetting it. it's happened twice, but i haven't lost any data or anything.

anyway, have you checked to see if all the files are still there via the folder in My Computer?

Re: iPod problem

all of my music is still there in the computer and everything (i'm on a mac, btw), but for some reason it says that 111 gigs are taken up by "Other" on the iPod, but there are no songs. :/

Re: iPod problem

Re: iPod problem

never mind, mangski; i plugged it in one more time to try it out and it told me to try and repair the disk partitions; when that didn't work i just erased the partition and restarted my ipod and it's working now. thanks for caring though : -D

Re: iPod problem

Yeah, I had this problem, I had to like, format it in 3 different ways to work, and the normal right click>format method didn't work. God damn Apple products being so complicated all the time, they never work.

edit: Oh, you solved it, congrats!
