Well that was clever.
I just reset my iPod to "Factory Settings" which should be a pretty straight
forward way to get rid of a couple of missing file gremlins and other
undesirable behaviour I'd witnessed. I was also thinking that I'd sync it
with my work computer because I spend more time here and my library is
better organized (mostly because it's so much smaller).
But no. The stupid process at no point told me that I'd need to have the
wall plug power adaptor on hand to finish the process. so now my ipod won't
work and I can't do anything about it. until I get home. assuming that it's
sleeping properly, because it sure won't let me do anything else now.
Bah. silly bastard device.
On the plus side that should be a good excuse for me to see if I have all of
my ipod wires etc at the new place or if they are still in boxes in the
'rents garage.
Fun.
and this would be a lot less of an issue if I weren't off to toronto for the
rest of the week on wednesday.
